Chapter 142. The Zhao family competes with dogs for food
If you rely on mountains, you can eat mountains; if you rely on water, you can eat water.
Since ancient times, countless mountain people have made a living in this primeval forest.
But since the end of the Qing Dynasty, warlords have been fighting, social unrest, and people are in dire straits. It is really difficult for the mountain people to make a living.
At that time, the blunderbuss was definitely considered a magic weapon, and anyone who had a bow and arrow at home was considered a great weapon.
If you don't have a good guy, you won't be able to kill a big wild boar or a big blind bear.
Therefore, if Zhao Jun, his great-grandfather, and the mountain runners before him could kill two hundred wild boars, they would be the leaders.
Starting from Zhao Jun's generation, many mountaineers have old foreign cannons in their hands. Those with experience and ability can use the old foreign cannons in their hands to hunt bears and eggs.
However, it is difficult to load old foreign cannons. If the prey is not knocked down by one shot, a person may suffer a bloody disaster.
Therefore, before Zhao Jun, the highest weight of wild boars hunted by gunners in the Yong'an Forest District was 580 kilograms.
The holder of this record is none other than Xu Changlin. Moreover, this record was set by Xu Changlin and Qing Lang four years ago.
As for the record holder for hunting a female wild boar, it has always been Zhao Jun's father, Zhao Dazhu. The old man once hunted a female wild boar weighing more than 390 kilograms in the sow forest.
Today, the highest record of wild boar hunting in the Yong'an forest area is recorded by the two uncles and nephews. The first is the pig god hunted by Zhao Jun, and the second is the nearly 1,000-jin wild boar king hunted by Wang Qiang.
Today, the highest record of female wild boar hunting in the Yong'an forest area was broken by Li Baoyu.
A canteen, in front of a small warehouse.
Zhao Jun, Li Baoyu, Jie Chen, and Han Daming lifted the large scale pole, and the big wild boar hung under the scale pole.
They were carrying the steelyard, and Zhang Guoqing was moving the weight hanging on the steelyard, but the weight was stuck straight up at the end.
Seeing this, Zhou Jianjun, who was watching the excitement, hurriedly greeted him: "Put it down quickly, put it down quickly."
This is obviously the weight of the wild boar, which exceeds the measurement range of the large scale.
"Oh my god!" Zhang Guoqing, director of the canteen, looked down at the wild boar in surprise and said, "Is this really an old sow? Why is it so big?"
"Didn't you hear what Baoyu said?" Han Daming laughed and said, "This is called the Pig Queen."
"That's too big." Zhang Guoqing muttered, then raised his head and asked Zhao Jun: "My nephew, why don't I give you six hundred pounds?"
Based on Zhang Guoqing's eyesight and experience, he judged that the fully disemboweled wild boar must have weighed five hundred and dozens of kilograms, but it was definitely no more than six hundred.
But in front of Zhou Jianjun, Zhang Guoqing wanted to do a favor without spending money on him.
"Uncle Zhang, nothing else." After Zhao Jun refused, he hurriedly explained: "This pig was beaten by Baoyu. We measured it accurately and made Baoyu happy and happy."
Hearing what Zhao Jun said, Li Baoyu smiled naively. Killing this wild boar was something Li Baoyu would be proud of all his life.
Since you have to weigh it for a lifetime, you have to figure out how much it weighs.
"Okay." Upon hearing this, Zhang Guoqing raised his hand and waved to the warehouse, saying, "Then you go up to the warehouse and pull it out for the scale."
Han Daming led the way and took Zhao Jun and the other two people into the warehouse.
Zhou Jianjun, who was waiting outside, took out the Shilin Smoke from his pocket, which was given to him by his mother-in-law this morning.
Zhou Jianjun first took out two cigarettes, distributed them to Zhao Youcai and Zhang Guoqing, and then took one himself.
When Zhao Jun and four others were pushing the scale out of the warehouse, Zhang Guoqing was smoking and said to Zhao Youcai: "Hey, you have wealth?"
"Huh?" Zhao Youcai was startled, then saw Zhang Guoqing smiling and saying: "You think, these children are so promising now, do you think we can still live forever?"
What Zhang Guoqing said was just idle chatter. A normal person would smile at this time and say "Not so good", and then a few people would reminisce about the past. This chatter would be very good.
But after Zhao Youcai heard this, he said "hum", turned around and went back to the cafeteria.
"Huh?" Zhang Guoqing was stunned, and heard Zhou Jianjun next to him saying to Zhao Youcai's back: "Dad, you are cold, please go back to the house to warm up, warm up."
Zhou Jianjun's words were to help Zhao Youcai and Zhang Guoqing find a way to save face.
Zhang Guoqing knew that this was Zhou Jianjun's good intention, but he smiled at Zhou Jianjun and said, "Your father-in-law is not in a good mood these days."
"Ah?" Zhou Jianjun, the filial son-in-law, was purely concerned about Zhao Youcai and asked hurriedly: "Uncle Zhang, what happened to my dad?"
"I don't want to leave our canteen to work." Zhang Guoqing said to Zhou Jianjun: "I haven't been able to work well for more than a month, and my heart has grown weary."
Zhang Guoqing's words sounded like a complaint. Zhou Jianjun rolled his eyes when he heard this, but didn't say anything.
How can he take care of his father-in-law's affairs?
At this time, four people from Zhao Jun had pulled out the scale. It was the scale used to weigh the Pig God last year.
The big wild boar was weighed on the scale, weighing a total of 575 kilograms. If it had not been disembowelled, bled, hung in a lantern to feed the dogs, and the thighs had been cut off for the trapper, the wild boar would have weighed 6670 pounds during its lifetime.
About kilograms.
Seeing this number, Li Baoyu was so happy that she couldn't open her mouth from ear to ear.
"That Baoyu... Zhao Jun." Hearing that Li Baoyu killed the wild boar, Zhang Guoqing wanted to settle the score with Li Baoyu. But when he thought that the person in charge of their small group was Zhao Jun, Zhang Guoqing called Zhao Jun's name again and said
: "It's still calculated as six hundred catties, two cents per catty."
"Okay." Zhao Jun responded without hesitation: "Uncle Zhang, you can give me as much as you want."
This price is acceptable to Zhaojiabang.
There is no need to eat the meat of this big wild boar. After it is transported home, the skin is peeled off and the meat is removed. After the body is disemboweled, the 575 kilogram wild boar can produce about 320 kilograms of meat.
Normally picked wild boar meat can be sold for 50 cents per catty at the market. But the meat of this big old sow is very thick, and people can tell at a glance that it will not turn out well when stewed. Even if it is sold, it will not be sold.
Fifty cents per pound.
Sold at 40 cents per catty, more than 320 catties of meat cost more than 120 yuan.
Is the Zhao family still short of a few dollars? How busy have they been all day? Who has time to sell meat?
Therefore, Zhao Jun and the other three happily sold the wild boar for 120 yuan.
The three brothers who got the money immediately divided the money, giving each of them forty as pocket money.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After leaving the canteen, I drove the Liberation Vehicle to follow Zhou Jianjun to the logistics warehouse. I heard a few days ago that they were going to Hebei, so Zhou Jianjun specially found the material custodian and drank six
Big barrel of gasoline.
Each barrel of gasoline costs 200 kilograms, which is enough for Zhao Jun and others to travel back and forth and still be wealthy.
The four people loaded the gasoline into the car and covered it with a tarpaulin. After Zhao and Jun said goodbye to Zhou Jianjun, they took the gasoline and the dog back home.
It was already after five o'clock when they got home.
As soon as the liberation vehicle stopped at the door, Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu got out of the car and let their dogs loose, while Jie Chen ran into the courtyard.
When Jiechen ran to the house, he caught up with Wang Meilan and opened the door.
"Xiao Chen." Wang Meilan asked Xie Chen, "Have you done anything?"
"It's done, Auntie." Xie Chen said, "It's done by treating the wild boar."
While talking, Jie Chen walked into the house. He was not in a hurry to go to the toilet without bringing any paper, but because he saw that the big lantern outside was not lit.
"Xiaomei." Upon hearing that a wild boar was being hunted, Wang Meilan hurriedly called to Jin Xiaomei and said, "Hurry up and get ready, let's grill the wild boar."
For several days, my family has not purchased any food from the mountains. If I don’t purchase it, there will be no meat at home.
"Auntie, we can't take it anymore." At this time, Jie Chen came out of the house with a candle and said to Wang Meilan: "Then let us sell the pig?"
"Sell it?" Wang Meilan was startled, then heard Xie Chen say: "It's too big, wouldn't you let it go home for repairs?"
"How old are you?" Wang Qiang, who was teasing the little thoughtful boy in the back room, suddenly became curious after hearing this.
"The disembowelment weighed more than 570 kilograms." Jie Chen said this. Wang Qiang didn't think anything of it, but Jie Chen then added: "It's still an old sow."
"Ah?" Wang Qiang was startled by Jie Chen's words. He got off the kang and walked to the door, and asked in surprise: "Such a big old sow?"
"Yeah." Jie Chen nodded and said, "Then let's call her the Pig Queen, uncle?"
After saying that, the anxious Jie Chen didn't wait for Wang Qiang's reply. He opened the door and ran out, hurrying to light a lantern.
Hearing that Zhao Jun and the others had sold the wild boar, Wang Meilan sighed and said, "What are we going to eat tonight?"
Originally I was thinking that no matter what Zhao Jun brought back, there was no need to stew or stew at this time, but it would be no problem to cut the meat into thin slices for stir-frying.
"Oh, sister." Wang Qiang said with a smile: "You can eat whatever you have. If there is no meat, we still have a few dishes."
At this time, standing on the side of the outer room, there were several large plates with prepared dishes inside.
But they are all vegetarian dishes, such as cabbage, fungus, dried green pepper, dried tofu, garlic sprouts, shredded beans and so on.
At this moment, the door of the house was pulled open, and Zhao Jun threw a sack in without entering the house.
"What is this?" Wang Meilan pulled the sack and opened it, her face immediately lit up with joy.
The sack contained pig heart, liver, and heart meat.
"Mom, it's better this time." Zhao Chun smiled beside him and said, "There are meat dishes."
"It's not good." Wang Meilan bent over, holding on to the edge of the sack with one hand, and reaching into the sack to retrieve something.
Pig meat is thick, but it does not affect the internal organs. It has some impact on the heart meat, but not much.
Usually, for a 200-pound pig, the heart and heart meat are only about half a pound.
As for this large wild boar, which weighs more than 600 kilograms, its heart is two kilograms, its heart meat is two and a half kilograms, and its liver is nearly fifteen kilograms.
It was such a big piece of pork liver that Wang Meilan struggled to pull it with one hand, but Wang Meilan just said one thing over and over again: "It's great, it's really good!"
"It makes my sister-in-law happy." Jin Xiaomei took a big basin with pig liver in it and prepared to take it back to her house.
After listening to Jin Xiaomei's words, Wang Qiang smiled and said: "These delicious foods are all snatched from the dog's mouth."
As soon as Wang Qiang said these words, he was slapped by Wang Meilan on the arm.
Everyone laughed, and Zhao Hong, who was doing homework on the kang in the west room, glanced at the door.
"Bang!" The tree stick hit Zhao Hong's homework book, and then Li Tongyun's voice reached Zhao Hong's ears: "What are you looking at? You want to get in on whatever other adults are doing!"
Zhao Hong curled her lips and continued working on her homework.
After training Zhao Hong, Li Tongyun glanced at the door, then turned his head to the window.
Outside the house, Zhao Jun tied the black tiger with a chain, while Jie Chen tied small flowers in the yard next door.
At this time, Li Baoyu came from the backyard next door and heard Zhao Jun ask: "Have you tied up that little bitch?"
The little bitch that Zhao Jun calls belongs to Hua Niuniu. When other dogs come home, they always go into their own kennels, but Hua Niuniu goes into other dogs' kennels.
"It's tied." Li Baoyu said with a smile: "That guy is always unhappy and chirping."
"You really deserve a beating." Zhao Jun muttered, and suddenly the black tiger next to him barked twice toward the outside of the courtyard.
"Woof woof..." Following a few scattered dog barks, Li Ruhai came back.
Recently, she has been successful in running business, and Jin Xiaomei has also relaxed her control over Li Ruhai. This guy can now go to his own family and his family to the west.
"Yeah!" When he saw his brother coming back, Li Baoyu climbed over the wall from his courtyard, and then rushed towards Li Ruhai.
His move startled Li Ruhai. Just as Li Ruhai was about to run out, he was grabbed by Li Baoyu.
"What are you doing?" Li Ruhai shouted: "I didn't recruit you, I didn't provoke you... huh?"
Suddenly, Li Ruhai noticed that Li Baoyu took out a wad of money from his pocket.
"Brother!" Li Baoyu smiled and handed the money to Li Ruhai.
"What are you doing?" Li Ruhai looked at Li Baoyu warily.
As the saying goes: If you show courtesy for nothing, you are either committing adultery or stealing.
"Haha..." Li Baoyu chuckled and said, "Brother, I have something to do and I want your help."
"Ah..." After hearing what Li Baoyu said, Li Ruhai smiled and reached out to take the money handed over by Li Baoyu.
Li Ruhai twisted the money, his expression suddenly changed, and then he stuffed it back into Li Baoyu's hand, and said angrily: "Where are you sending to the beggar? Who are you looking down on?"
Zhao Jun snickered on the sidelines. On the way back, Li Baoyu divided all the cents in his pocket and prepared to use the money to bribe Li Ruhai.
"What the hell..." Li Baoyu waved his hand holding the money, which scared Li Ruhai and hurriedly ran away.
Li Baoyu raised his hand high, but gently dropped it. He patted Li Ruhai on the shoulder with a smile and said: "Don't be too embarrassed, this brother gave you money to buy popsicles. So what... I still pay
There are big tickets.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! As he said that, Li Baoyu took out four big unity cards from his trouser pocket.
This was the cents for selling the wild boar. When they were in the car, Zhao Jun said that it was impossible to bribe Li Ruhai with that little change.
"Is this okay?" Li Baoyu took out one card and handed it to Li Ruhai.
Li Ruhai still didn't accept the money. He looked at Li Baoyu seriously and asked, "Did you let my sister-in-law know if you broke your shoes outside?"
"I'm pretty..." Li Baoyu subconsciously wanted to curse, but Zhao Jun stopped him.
Li Baoyu came to his senses and quickly changed his words and scolded Li Ruhai, saying: "What did you say? Are you a tiger?"
Hearing the commotion, Jie Chen hurriedly came over from the Li Family Courtyard to watch the excitement.
At this time, Li Ruhai still looked serious and asked Li Baoyu: "You went up the mountain to shoot and killed someone's old cow?"
Zhao Jun: "..."
Now, Zhao Jun understood what was going on.
"What are you talking about?" Li Baoyu said angrily to Li Ruhai, "You can't expect your brother to be better! Your brother knocked down a big wild boar today."
"Big wild boar?" Li Ruhai asked, "How big is it?"
"An old sow weighing more than 600 kilograms is called the Pig Queen..." Li Baoyu chatted a lot with Li Ruhai, and finally slapped the big pig into Li Ruhai's hand and said: "Hurry up and write a paragraph.
, there will be a party before the end of the year, you can go on stage and give a good speech."
Li Ruhai twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Last time you chased me away from the whole courtyard with sticks, saying that if I yelled at you again, you would break my legs."
"Which time was it?" Li Baoyu asked, and Li Ruhai said, "The time I talked about your little Bajie."
"Bah!" As soon as Li Ruhai finished speaking, Li Baoyu hit Li Baoyu on the back one by one.
"Remember!" Li Baoyu pointed at the Great Unity in Li Ruhai's hand and said, "Your brother is nicknamed the Bear-Capturing King Kong!"
