Chapter 798 The money is here
The snow was much lighter, but constant.
Swishing and drifting all day and night.
When it dawned the next day, Lu Lu got out of the tuoluozi and saw Yuanbao and the other dogs coiled up in a ball. Their entire bodies were covered with snow, leaving only one person breathing at the mouth. Melted hole.
The big dumb dogs may not be as cold-resistant as sled dogs (huskies), but they have bred in the wilderness for many years and have already adapted to the wilderness environment. Even such cold weather does not affect them from sleeping directly in the snow.
Hearing the noise, several dogs' heads lifted up from the snow one after another. When they saw it was Lu Lu, they stood up, shook their bodies vigorously, shook off the snow covering their bodies, and then swarmed towards Lu Lu. before.
As soon as Lu Lu stretched out his hand, Yuan Bao jumped up, put his legs on Lu Lu's arms, and stuck out his tongue to lick Lu Lu's palm.
Lu Lu also reached out and rubbed Yuan Bao's head.
This is the way of greeting each other that has been formed since Yuan Bao recognized his master and followed Lu Lu.
The same goes for the other dogs.
After taking turns to say hello to several dogs, Zhang Shaofeng and others also got out of the tent one after another, exhaling clouds of mist from their mouths and noses, stretching their exaggerated waists, and stretching their bodies that were a little sore from sleep as much as possible. .
"How are we leaving today? Should we send a telegram to Huazi and the others to pick us up, or should we just drive the sledge back?" Zhang Shaofeng held the snow in his hands, rubbed it hard on his face, and asked while rubbing it.
"Don't bother. Now send a telegram to Hua Zi. When they set off and get here, they will drag us back. It will take six or seven days at least. If we have the time, let's rush here. If we go back on the sledge, we'll almost be there."
Liang Kangbo was also washing his face and hands with the snow in his hands. It seemed cold, but using this thing to warm his hands and face was already a habit he developed after entering the mountains.
Although the skin on the face and hands is very rough, it has to be said that the ability to resist freezing has indeed improved a lot, and several people have become accustomed to it.
"Then how do we go? If we go from Tahe to Jiagedaqi, and then all the way to Yichun, it feels like we have gone in quite a circle!" Raymond had seen the map Lu Lu brought and compared it.
"Then let's go in the direction of Huma and Aihui. It's straighter here!"
Lu Lu made a decision directly.
"Huma..." Zhao Yongke whispered, looking a little hesitant.
Lu Lu knew what he wanted to say. In fact, regarding what happened in Huma, especially what happened with Chen Xiuqing, several people had never had a good impression of Huma.
"As long as we don't mix it up in Jingou, we'll be fine. Besides, after winter comes, even those who are panning for gold in Jingou, most of them have gone home, and those who stay are just preparing materials. .
The river is frozen, gold mining is inseparable from water, and no one can bear to soak in the water at this time... During this period, there is almost no gold sand produced. Right now, it is the most stable time of Jingou, so you can get some money. Most of them were busy having fun, so there was no problem.
Along the way, we follow the golden ancient road. The route is straight and passes through many villages. It is also convenient for eating and resting. "
Lu Lu simply said what he meant, and after he finished speaking, he couldn't help but add: "Of course, you still have to be careful. At this time, there are many people who have lost their money in the city and come out to make plans!"
After successfully returning to the wilderness, they are no longer in a hurry.
After making the decision, they all hurriedly packed their luggage, fed the horses with grain and grass, set up the sledge and hurried onto the road, heading towards Huma.
After sitting on the sledge for a long time, my hands and feet will become unbearable from the cold, and I will have to sit on the sledge for a while and then walk for a while.
Along the way I saw jumping cats, greyhounds and flying dragons, and I also caught some.
Just follow the ancient road all the way.
When passing through villages and towns, buy some ready-made pancakes and other things to take with you to eat on the road, and spend the night wherever you go.
After a few days, we didn't meet many people, and the road went smoothly. We also caught a lot of flying dragons and greyhounds here and there.Finally, on the eighth day, several people returned to the district.
Different from the previous times, this time I mainly hunted in the Xing'an Mountains, and the fur had been processed. As for the meat, except for some good meat that was given to Ashku and Sumarokov, the rest was just for feeding the dogs. , and threw it away directly.
What was left on the five sledges was only the fur and meat that they had picked up in Mohe for two or three days. In addition, there were not many things picked up along the way, so when they arrived at the district, the few people did not stop any longer.
But when passing Tian Youcheng's restaurant, Tian Youcheng still saw it.
He put his hands in his sleeves and hurriedly stopped Lu Lu and others.
"Gentlemen, have you just come back from hunting?"
Tian Youcheng said with a smile, but his eyes glanced at the sledge, and his brows wrinkled: "It shouldn't be, why don't you have many things?"
There are only three or four bags on each sledge. In addition to furs, they are mainly bear paws, flying dragons and the like.
"This prey is hard to catch. No matter how long I wander around in the mountains, I can't see a decent one!"
Naturally, Lu Lu would not tell the truth: "I wasted a lot of time and only got this little thing. This little thing is not enough for us to take back and share."
"Ouch... I'm in trouble now. I've been hoping to wait for you to come back and buy some meat. The Chinese New Year will be here in about ten days. Where can I get such things?"
Tian Youcheng's face suddenly fell: "Gentlemen, please keep all this meat for me!"
"That won't work...there aren't many of these things. We have to take them back. Some of them will be kept for ourselves to eat during the Chinese New Year, and some of them will have to be given away to others."
"No, you can still go into the mountains and fight!"
"It's not that simple. There is no prey for us in the surrounding mountains and forests. Sorry, Boss Tian, if there are more, I will definitely leave some to sell to you. There is really no way this time... hunting in the mountains There are many people selling them in the district, so please pay more attention."
Lu Lu didn't think Tian Youcheng's restaurant would be able to operate without people like him.
With so many hunters entering the mountains after winter, there will definitely be no shortage of prey.
After he finished speaking, he drove the sledge back. When he passed the state-owned store, he went in and bought some snacks to take with him.
Who knows, as soon as a few people came out of the state-owned store, they saw the old master from the purchasing station waiting by the sledge.
"The people at the buying station just saw you passing by and hurriedly came to see me. I didn't dare to neglect them at all!" The old master was also looking at the catch on the sledge: "Why are there so few this time?"
"It's hard to hunt. There are fewer and fewer prey in the mountains!" Lu Lu could only evade: "I'm afraid that in less than two years, we will have to put down the shotguns in our hands and we will not be able to escape."
"You must have sold it somewhere else!"
"Nothing."
"That shouldn't be the case. With your abilities, you shouldn't be able to hit just this little bit."
"I would like to do more and make money. Of course, the more the better, but it's a pity..."
Lu Lu spread his hands and looked helpless.
"Don't pull back the fur, leave it to me!"
"I haven't removed the oily skin yet!"
"Ignore this, just collect it and send it to the factory. Someone will naturally make it. As long as the leather is good, the price is not a problem."
"This is a good thing. It saves you the hassle and effort of shoveling the oily skin back and drying it again."
"In the past two months, I have been running to your house a lot, and I have never seen anyone. Whether our acquisition station can complete the acquisition task this year depends on you. Now that I am back, I will store it in your warehouse right away. Ask someone to follow you to pull it!"
Is it so urgent?
Seeing the old master's eager look, Lu Lu felt a little funny.
But this is something that must be solved sooner or later. Since it has been mentioned, let’s do it once.
He led Green Onion and the sledge directly into the purchasing station, took out the few furs that were frozen into ice cubes in the bag, and after a brief inventory, handed them over to the purchasing station.
They were already familiar with Lu Lu, and knew that the furs obtained by Lu Lu and the others were always in good condition, so they were moved into the warehouse by the staff without much inspection, and were given the highest purchase price.
When a few people drove the sledge all the way to Xiushan Tun, the car from the purchasing station immediately followed them. They didn't go any faster. They just followed Lu Lu and others unhurriedly, as if they were afraid that they would fly away. .
So, a group of people worked in the mountains for more than two months. When they came back, they didn't have time to visit the house first. Instead, they were busy going to Lu Lu's Caodianzi to help count the furs and load them into the truck.
When Chen Xiuyu saw Yuanbao and the others who had arrived home first, she immediately ran out of the house, opened the fence gate, and watched eagerly at the door.
When he saw Lu Lu driving the sledge by the river, he quickly turned his head and wiped away the tears that could no longer be held in his eyes.
She had been away for more than two months. Seeing that the Chinese New Year was coming up in a few days and she still hadn't come back, how could she not be anxious.
Probably the most worry-free person is Lu Zhengyang.
At this time, the little kid was still letting a few dogs pull the sled to run around in the meadow.
The child was young and learned things very quickly. Lu Lu saw from a distance that he had managed several half-grown puppies very well on the snow.
Seeing Lu Lu coming back, he drove his sledge over to join in the fun.
"Dad!" As soon as he recognized it was Lu Lu, he immediately jumped off the sledge that had not yet stopped, and fell into the mud.
Fortunately, he was not spoiled on weekdays. After falling down, the little guy quickly got up on his own. He happily rushed towards Lu Lu again and was picked up by Lu Lu.
It feels like the little guy has grown a lot heavier in just over two months.
Lu Lu kissed him twice on the forehead unceremoniously, tilted his head, and the little guy also kissed him twice on the face affectionately.
Then, Lu Lu looked at Chen Xiuyu who walked quickly to his side: "Daughter-in-law, I'm back!"
Chen Xiuyu nodded solemnly, pulled Lu Lu around and looked around, and saw that he was not injured or anything, she was relieved: "Why did it take so long this time!"
"It's gone a long way!"
Lu Lu reached out and rubbed her head.Lu Lu has never been able to get rid of this habit, and it seems that Chen Xiuyu has completely accepted it now.
He looked at the empty sledge again and asked strangely: "Where is the fur that was beaten?"
In the past, when I came back, the furs in the car would be packed into a pile, but this time there were only a few random bags.
"When I was in the district, I said there was no need to shovel the oily skin, so I sold it directly!"
"This saves trouble!"
Seeing that Lu Lu returned home safely, Chen Xiuyu finally felt relaxed and laughed immediately.
"Okay... the people from the purchasing station are here to talk about it. They have to finish this matter first."
Lu Lu held his son in one hand and held Green Onion in the other as he walked toward the yard.
The cars at the purchasing station had just arrived and parked in front of the cellar, and Lu Lu had just unloaded the sledge pulled by Green Onion. At this moment, the roar of cars sounded again outside.
A group of people turned back to look at the intersection. Not long after, three jeeps drove in one after another. As soon as they saw the cars, Lu Lu knew that this was Wei Chunan and others sending money!
Everything really came together.
Thank you book friend Frozen Valley for your reward.
