Chapter 1412 Timely Rain
Seeing that the Wang family was about to get rid of him, Zhao Youcai could no longer sit still.
"Qiangzi, why don't you not go tomorrow?" Zhao Youcai said, focusing everyone's attention on himself, and then added: "What's the point of you going? Do you know how to plant explosives?"
When asked this by Zhao Youcai, Wang Qiang squinted his eyes and remained silent.
Zhao Youcai asked the right question, Wang Qiang really doesn’t know the answer.
Explosives are not something you can just prepare randomly. You have to control the amount. In addition, you need detonators and fuses to detonate.
How could Young Master Wang know this?
Seeing Wang Qiang remain silent, Zhao Youcai's mouth corners slightly raised and a hint of joy flashed in his eyes.
From the moment he resigned, Zhao Youcai made up his mind to stay at home for three to five days and then find an opportunity to go up the mountain.
And today is the third day that Zhao Youcai has been working from home.
During these three days of work, Zhao Youcai was very busy and annoyed.
And now, the opportunity has come!
But what Zhao Youcai never expected was that Wang Qiang didn't say anything, but Xing San spoke.
"Second brother, you don't have to go." The old man's tone was full of concern for the business of the Zhao family's Chamber of Commerce. He just said, "There are so many things to do at home, so you can stay at home."
"Hmm?" Zhao Youcai was startled, looked at Xing San and asked, "Brother... then... if I don't go, will you plant explosives?"
"Yes!" Xing San said to Zhao Youcai and Wang Qiang with a smile, "I lived in that shack at first. Haven't you all been there? There are two huts on the back hill of mine. They are the detonator and explosives warehouses built by your forest farm.
During those years of cultivating the Dao there, the clanging of the bells every day scared away the roe deer. I couldn’t set traps either, so I just watched them set explosives, shattering large bluestones and fallen trees.”
"Brother, do you think you can do it?" Zhao Youcai asked. Xing San smiled and said, "Yes, I have tried it before. Don't worry."
Xing San pointed to a pile of hides on the table against the wall and said, "There are so many things to do at home. Can we do it without you?"
"I... this..." Zhao Youcai cried in his heart, and hurriedly made a final effort, saying to Xing San: "Brother, I'd better go with you."
"No need." Xing San waved his hand and said, "Qiangzi and I can ride our motorcycles so fast. You can just stay at home."
Zhao Youcai opened his mouth, but he didn't know what reason he had to replace Wang Qiang. He curled his lips and reluctantly put out the cigarette in his hand.
Wang Qiang smiled when he saw this. If Zhao Youcai went up the mountain, he would have to stay at home. There were too many things to do at home, and Wang Qiang didn't want to stay at home.
Wang Meilan didn't care who went up the mountain, as long as they could get their own things back.
"Well...his dad." Wang Meilan suddenly remembered something and called Zhao Youcai and said, "Can you make noodles for the two brothers?"
"Ah?" Zhao Youcai, who was in a bad mood, was stunned. Not only was he not allowed to go up the mountain, but he was also asked to cook. It was really unreasonable.
"I've fished out all the pickled cabbage." Wang Meilan thought Zhao Youcai didn't hear her, so she repeated, "Cut some pickled cabbage into shreds and cook some noodles for the brothers to eat. I'll go give money to Chen Dalai's wife for the roe deer."
After saying that, Wang Meilan got up and left.
Zhao Youcai had no choice but to go to the outer room to cook.
"Dang dang dang..." The kitchen knife cuts sauerkraut shreds, and each cut lands on the chopping board. Although Zhao Youcai is a little frustrated, he still has hope in his heart.
After cooking for Xing San and Wang Qiang, Zhao Youcai went out to bury the roe deer. The roe deer that Hei Hu stole was taken to the backyard by Zhao Youcai and buried in the snow.
The dog Heihu is pretty good. It will dig up the frozen food buried in other people's homes, but it won't dig up the frozen food in its own home.
After returning to the house, Zhao Youcai started to peel the roe deer. The roe deer that Wang Qiang had brought back were not frozen yet, so it was just right to peel them and eat them in the evening.
Roe deer meat with sauerkraut, braised roe deer ribs, stir-fried roe deer offal... some can be fried, some stewed, and some fried.
Zhao Jun, who was visiting Fengtian, was also entertained by Liang Zhanshan's family.
Pork stewed with vermicelli, roast chicken, braised pork head in sauce, plus a few stir-fried and pickled dishes, this standard of hospitality is quite high in today's cities.
The men ate around the kang table on the kang, while the women and children ate at a table set up outside.
After a few drinks, the men started talking and Li Baoyu talked about the gangster he encountered on the road yesterday afternoon.
Hearing that Zhao Jun had smashed a thrown brick with one shot, Liang Zhanshan, who was gnawing on a chicken collarbone, looked at Zhao Jun in surprise and said vaguely, "How come you're so good at shooting?"
At this time, Zhao Jun couldn't say that he was just guessing, he just laughed and let the matter go.
"Jun!" Zhao Weipeng said to Zhao Jun in surprise, "I've only been away from you for a few days, and you've become so successful. You're almost as good as your father."
"Oh! Fortunately he has some skills, otherwise we would be in trouble." Liang Zhanhe is older after all, and more stable than Zhao Weipeng and Liang Zhanshan. Compared with Zhao Jun's marksmanship, he is more impressed by the gang of criminals who stopped people on the road and extorted them in broad daylight.
He continued, "You come out in broad daylight to block the road. This is too weird."
"The New Year is coming." Zhao Weipeng said, "The family has no money for the New Year, so they think of crooked ways. This is not stealing or robbing, but asking you for money and blackmailing you like a fool."
Zhao Jun didn't want to talk about this matter any more. He changed the subject and asked Liang Zhanshan, "Second Uncle Liang, how did you get that Rakshasa dog back?"
"My comrade-in-arms gave it to me." Liang Zhanshan said, "He has business in Yichun."
At this point, Liang Zhanshan raised his hand and gestured, saying, "There's only a river between that place and the Russians. He even told me in plain language that from our side, we can watch the Russian women bathing in the river over there."
Zhao Jun didn't want to talk about the topic of the Russian woman taking a bath, so he asked again: "That dog is the one he brought over from the border, right?"
"Yeah." Liang Zhanshan responded first, then muttered a curse word and said, "I just got the f*cking feeling."
As he spoke, Liang Zhanshan raised his head and said, "He couldn't raise the dog, so he sent it to me."
"Not really." Zhao Weipeng said, "Isn't it just a little bit of a dog?"
"That's not a steal at all!" Liang Zhanshan rolled up his left sleeve, showed it to Zhao Weipeng, and said, "Look at the bites it gave me."
"Oh my god!" Zhao Weipeng saw a scar on Liang Zhanshan's arm, so he asked, "The dog bit me, why didn't you strangle it to death?"
"It didn't mean to do that." Liang Zhanshan picked up the wine cup and invited Li Baoyu and others to drink. After taking a sip of wine, Liang Zhanshan said, "That day we were drying corn in the front yard, and my Huzi came out from the backyard. Then they got together and I bit him when I was pulling the stick."
After listening to Liang Zhanshan's words, Zhao Jun remembered that Liang Zhanshan had said in the afternoon that his dog Hu Zi had been bitten by the red dog twice. But Zhao Jun also went to see Hu Zi in the afternoon. The dog weighed more than 80 kilograms, nearly 90 kilograms.
From this we can see that the red dog's quality is indeed good. No wonder it is said to be a fierce dog specialized in hunting wolves.
As for whether the dog would cause trouble when he got home, Zhao Jun was not worried at all. It was a wolf hunter, but the dogs in his gang were all tiger and bear hunters.
If Red Dog could beat Tiger who weighed 10 kg more than him, could he beat White Dragon and Erhei who weighed 40 kg more than him? Not to mention Black Tiger, who was not much heavier than Red Dog, but he was not much different.
After having a good meal and a good drink, Zhao Jun, Li Baoyu, Jie Chen and Zhao Weipeng stayed in the west room of Liang Zhanshan's house. His snoring made the little black bear feel very close to him.
The next morning, after having breakfast at Liang's house, Zhao Jun and his group continued on their journey. Zhao Weipeng drove in the front, and Zhao Jun sat in the passenger seat with the little black bear in his arms.
"I didn't think you could come before the New Year." Zhao Weipeng, who was driving, said to Zhao Jun, "Didn't you say before the New Year?"
"I'm thinking of going out and making some money." Zhao Jun said with a smile, "I'm just staying at home anyway, so I'm thinking of making some money for the New Year."
"Okay." Zhao Weipeng nodded in agreement and said, "You are right. Young people should not be lazy. Don't look at your uncle's fatness. He is very hardworking."
"Yes, yes." Zhao Jun agreed with what Zhao Weipeng said. Boss Zhao really worked very hard, and even though he had such a rich family background, he was still working hard.
"Where are all your goods on that truck?" Zhao Weipeng asked. Zhao Jun said, "Yes, uncle, except for the wild boar, roe deer and rice for you, the rest of the truck is all goods."
"Full of it all at once?" Zhao Weipeng said in surprise, "You guys did a lot."
"Yeah." Zhao Jun said, "There must be about 100,000 of them."
"Oh my God!" Zhao Weipeng was even more surprised. He turned to look at Zhao Jun and said with a smile, "This guy has a big business."
"We all pooled our money together." Zhao Jun told Zhao Weipeng about the establishment of the Chamber of Commerce. After listening, Zhao Weipeng said to Zhao Jun: "Jun, stay at my house for one night today. Don't be in a hurry to leave tomorrow. You finally came here, so stay at our house for two days."
"No more playing, uncle." Zhao Jun said, "It's almost the New Year, let's go back after we sell our things."
Today is January 1988, 1, which is the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month. In another half month, February 27, it is the Little New Year in the north.
There is a saying: The New Year begins in the twelfth lunar month.
Zhao Jun had no time to play this time. He had to hurry back and then go up the mountain to bring the "New Year's goods" back home.
"Don't worry." Zhao Weipeng raised his fat hand and said to Zhao Jun, "How are you three going to sell these old things?"
"Huh?" Zhao Jun was stunned. He didn't understand what Zhao Weipeng meant. Then Zhao Weipeng said, "You know Xinji is such a place, so what? You can't just go in directly? You have so much money in this truckload of goods, it's easy to get into trouble."
Zhao Weipeng's words were not alarmist. There is a saying that a strong dragon cannot suppress a local snake, and Zhao Jun and his three men were not strong dragons. They had guns and bullets, but none of them had ever seen human blood.
"Uncle, this is what I'm thinking." Zhao Jun said, "I'll lend you a warehouse and unload the goods into your warehouse. After that, I'll sell the skins in three days."
After hearing what Zhao Jun said, Zhao Weipeng waved his hands and said, "Then don't bother. I'll find someone for you and ask him to take all those things that you gave me."
"That's great." Zhao Jun was overjoyed when he heard that, and hurriedly provided emotional value to Zhao Weipeng, saying: "Uncle, you are still the big boss, your channels are really wide."
"Hahaha..." Zhao Weipeng smiled proudly and said, "You came at the right time. My uncle and I arranged a deal last Sunday, and then I got to know a guy who buys furs in Xinji. His business is quite big, and he's one of the best there."
"Uncle, you are really a timely rain." Zhao Jun has been called the timely rain Song Jiang by Li Baoyu since he was a child, but now this title has been pinned on Zhao Weipeng's head.
“Hahaha…” Zhao Weipeng laughed, “Don’t say it, it’s true.”
Zhao Weipeng then changed the subject and said, "You are lucky that I happen to know such a person."
"Uncle, I am lucky because I met you." Zhao Jun praised Zhao Weipeng again, and then asked: "Uncle, do you know anyone who collects Chinese medicinal herbs?"
"Chinese medicinal materials..." Zhao Weipeng thought for a moment and asked Zhao Jun, "Bear bile?"
"Yes!" Zhao Jun said, "It's mainly bear gall, and then there are two sets of pig gizzards."
"Let's sell the furs first." Zhao Weipeng said, "After we sell the furs, let's ask the fur dealer. These things you bought are all mountain products. Even if he doesn't want to buy them, I know where to buy them."
Zhao Jun agreed with Zhao Weipeng's opinion. He believed that with the help of Boss Zhao, his trip to Hebei would be much smoother.
Just as Zhao Jun and his entourage were heading for Jinxi, Wang Qiang and Xing San, who came from the Zhao family, once again came to the treasure burial site.
When he arrived at the elm tree, Wang Qiang took the chainsaw from his shoulder and prepared to cut the tree.
Last night, Wang Qiang and Xing San discussed it again and decided to leave home today and come here to plant the tree.
As for the explosives, detonators and fuses, let Li Dayong go to the forest farm and ask Zhou Jianjun for them. This way, Wang Qiang and Xing San would not have to go to the forest farm again. When Li Dayong brought the things back in the evening, the two would come again tomorrow.
Wang Qiang pulled the chainsaw open and prepared to work. If we want to blow it from this side, this tree is an obstacle. It would be easy if there was only one stump left, but there is no way to blow up such a big tree.
Wang Qiang was cutting wood while Xing San was patrolling and keeping watch with a gun in hand.
Suddenly, two people came up from below.
Xing San subconsciously put the gun in his left hand, reached behind his back with his right hand, and pulled out a knife from his waist.
Seeing two people coming towards him, Xing San quickly turned around to look for Wang Qiang.
"Qiangzi, someone is coming downstairs." Xing San couldn't shout this, but if he didn't shout, Wang Qiang who was cutting down trees wouldn't be able to hear him.
"Who is it?" Wang Qiang stopped the chainsaw and asked.
"They look like forest rangers." Xing San said, "Come in two."
"It's okay, brother." Hearing that the person coming was a forest ranger, Wang Qiang said to Xing San, "You stay here and watch. I'll go down."
"Can you do it yourself?" Xing San asked. Wang Qiang said, "Why not? They all know me!"
Last time, Zhao Jun held a meeting for all forest rangers, and Wang Qiang also went. At that time, he and Jie Chen stood on Zhao Jun's left and right like two generals.
Wang Qiang walked down quickly, and after two minutes he saw two people coming up wearing special black cotton jackets.
The two looked up and saw Wang Qiang standing in front of them. They asked Wang Qiang directly: "Who are you?"
Wang Qiang: "..."
