The whole mountain is my hunting ground.

Chapter 1391 Albino Sable (8k to commemorate the 1000th day of the book opening)

Chapter 1391 Albino Sable (8k to commemorate the 1000th day of the book opening)

China is a vast country with rich resources, and the cultures in the north and south are very different.

Take the matter of making money from the mountains as an example. In the south it is called "chasing the mountains" and in the northeast it is called "running the mountains".

In the tradition of mountain running in the Northeast, the fur of small prey such as weasels, squirrels, sables, etc. is peeled off by turning the skin inside out and peeling it downwards. The skin is peeled into a cylinder, and the tail is just stuffed into the cylinder.

In this way, the leather roller has the hair inside and the skin next to the skin outside.

But even so, Zhao Jun knew at first glance that the fur of this skin was white.

Zhao Jun was surprised to take the leather tube from Shi Baofeng. He held it and pulled the tail stuffed in the tube. He kept pulling and the leather tube was pulled open, so that a piece of fur was spread out in front of Zhao Jun.

The skin had no head left on, but Zhao Jun could tell that it was the skin of a sable, or what the mountain runners called a big skin.

The normal sable has black-brown or yellow-brown fur with white guard hairs in between.

And this sable fur has pure white fur.

Zhao Jun touched the fur and determined by feel that it was not the white mink fur sold abroad, but pure sable fur, one of the three treasures of Changbai Mountain.

It is white, it is albino.

This was the first time Zhao Jun had seen an albino sable in his two lifetimes. But Zhao Jun had heard about it when he was tinkering with ginseng in his previous life, so he knew it was worth a lot of money.

"Four brothers." At this time, Wang Meilan said to Shi Baofeng, "Show your photo to our children as well."

"Huh?" Zhao Jun looked at Shi Baofeng in surprise, only to see him taking out another leather tube from the other side pocket inside his cotton-padded jacket.

Zhao Jun was stunned when he saw this. It turned out to be a white sable skin.

"Fourth uncle." Zhao Jun smiled at Shi Baofeng and said, "You are so lucky to have made a fortune in this mountain area."

Mountain hikers these days all abide by the mountain rules, and one person guards a section of the mountain. If he sets traps and clamps there, others cannot come.

Although Shi Baofeng does not live in the mountains, he often goes down the mountain to catch and slink traps. Therefore, he also has his own fixed territory.

When Zhao Jun saw him take out two albino sable skins at once, he knew that there must be a nest of albino sables in Shi Baofeng's territory.

There is no fixed number of babies in a litter, but albinism is rare, so it is even more difficult for them to survive.

"Haha, no." At this time, Shi Baofeng had to be modest. He smiled and said, "It's been so many years since I last saw this opportunity. I'll take it this time."

"Your fourth uncle is kind and righteous." Wang Meilan praised Shi Baofeng to Zhao Jun and said, "He deserves to make this fortune."

Zhao Jun smiled and nodded. Shi Baofeng had a very good reputation in the surrounding villages. For so many years, Shi Baofeng had been helping his three brothers.

Although the three brothers were blind, they all married wives. Although the wives were also disabled, there was no problem with the next generation.

Both husband and wife are disabled, so the family conditions are not good. Shi Baofeng helps a lot with the three families.

Zhao Jun opened the second leather reel and checked it from beginning to end.

After stacking the two pieces of leather together, Zhao Jun asked Shi Baofeng, "Uncle, if I want both, what's the price?"

Hearing Zhao Jun asking about the price, Shi Baofeng smiled. He glanced at Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang next to him. It was obvious that he had not been able to reach an agreement with the brother and sister on the previous price.

"Nephew." Shi Baofeng pointed at the two albino sable skins, then raised his hand, pointed his index finger, and said, "Ten thousand yuan."

"Oh my God!" Zhao Jun looked at Shi Baofeng in surprise, but Shi Baofeng smiled but said nothing.

Judging from Shi Baofeng's attitude, he is obviously very determined about this price.

Zhao Jun looked at Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang. Wang Qiang said with a smile, "I told your fourth uncle to give in, but he refused."

"Qiangzi, I really can't let you go." Shi Baofeng said with a wry smile, and then Wang Qiang asked him, "Then Fourth Brother, how much will I give you if you sell it down the mountain?"

These two albino sable skins were well-seasoned and had obviously been in Shi Baofeng's hands for a long time. He had not been able to sell them, and the problem must have been the price.

"Down the mountain..." Shi Baofeng hesitated and said, "Qiangzi, your fourth brother doesn't lie. It's what it is. I really took these two skins and asked him. He wanted two thousand for each, but I didn't do it."

"Fourth brother, look here." Wang Qiang said, handing Shi Baofeng a grape cigarette and said with a smile: "The big stores in the city offer one for two thousand and two for four thousand. But you don't want to do it anymore, and you want ten thousand. That's a bit too much."

"Haha..." Shi Baofeng smiled and said, "Qiangzi, he gave me 4,000, so I won't do anything. I want 10,000, and if someone wants it, I'll sell it."

Although Wang Qiang did not agree with the high price Shi Baofeng wanted, he believed in business as a matter of willingness and willingness. If Shi Baofeng thought the price was too high, he could just refuse the price and not get angry.

So, Wang Qiang acted as if nothing had happened and struck a match to light a cigarette for Shi Baofeng.

At this time, Xu Chunyan came in with the brewed tea, which was taken by Wang Meilan and brought to Shi Baofeng.

She had made tea for Shi Baofeng once before, but when he walked by, Xu Chunyan was diligent and immediately poured out the remaining tea and cleaned the teacup.

Now that Shi Baofeng had returned and was sitting on the kang in the east room chatting, Xu Chunyan made him some tea.

"Sister, stop working." Shi Baofeng gently put down the teacup, said something polite to Wang Meilan, and then said to Wang Qiang: "It's not that the fourth brother is evil and only cares about money. Sister Lan and Qiangzi, you also know the situation in my family. Last year, one of my nephews got married and one of my nieces got married, and I arranged everything for them.

This New Year, my two nephews are getting married, and I have to take care of that. Then there’s my own eldest son, who will be seventeen this New Year, and my second son, who will be fifteen. They both need money.”

"Yeah, yeah." Wang Qiang, who was smoking, nodded repeatedly, raised his hand and pointed at the teacup, saying, "Fourth brother, drink some water."

"Yeah." Shi Baofeng responded, and then said, "It's not that I'm asking for a random price. I just heard my father talking about it a while ago. He said that a few years ago, there was a young marshal who sent someone to find this big white skin, saying that he was giving it to the fourth and eighth young ladies.

In those days, a piece of white leather could be sold for 86 yuan, how much would it be now? But I didn’t know before, I said I have been wearing leather for so many years, but I never saw a white one. This was last year… the year before last, in , when the big freeze came, it was almost the time of the Gregorian calendar year.

During a heavy snowfall, I climbed up and down the mountain with twelve pedal clamps, four large pieces of leather, and two of them were white. Only then did I know that this thing really existed. "

At this point, Shi Baofeng took a puff of cigarette, frowned and thought for a while, then said: "Last year it was... before October, or November? Anyway, there were only two of them, two from Hebei, they were father and son, they came to collect hides and so on, and they came to my house.

I showed them the two skins, and they liked them, and we negotiated a price. I asked for 12,000 yuan at first, and then they agreed to 10,000 yuan. "

After hearing what Shi Baofeng said, Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan looked at each other. Shi Baofeng's words might be exaggerated, but the father and son he mentioned must be the Zheng family's father and son.

"Fourth brother, why didn't they take the skin away?" Wang Qiang asked. Shi Baofeng frowned and said, "When did they arrive at my house that day? It was already dark. They stayed for a while and wanted to leave. They said they didn't have that much money in their pockets, so they had to go to their eldest brother-in-law's house to get some money. They would come back in two days."

As he spoke, Shi Baofeng flicked the ash into an ashtray made of a can and said, "I waited for them at home for three days. During those three days, I didn't even go up the mountain. They didn't come until the fourth day. What did they say to me? They said they had spent all the money they brought with them and had to go back to Hebei to get more money before coming back."

Hearing this, Zhao Jun and the other two were all happy. The Zheng family father and son came to Zhao's house for the first time, bought bear gall, and waited for a fortune. Before leaving, Wang Meilan sold them a few more gray skins, which made the Zheng family father and son almost have no money to return to Hebei, so how could they have money to buy Shi Baofeng's albino sable skins.

They will come back after they get the money back in Hebei. The father and son are busy making fake and shoddy products. But they should go to Shi Baofeng's house before leaving and buy the albino sable fur.

But the father and son were unable to return home, and they were unable to contact Shi Baofeng again.

Wang Qiang put out his cigarette and said to Shi Baofeng, "Fourth brother, are those two trying to fool you?"

"Not really." Shi Baofeng shook his head, then put out his cigarette and said, "Anyway, Qiangzi, I want this number. I may never see this thing again in my life."

"Uncle." At this time, Zhao Jun asked Wang Qiang, "What did you discuss with my fourth uncle the other day?"

"He won't do it even if I give him 5,000 yuan." Wang Qiang said so. Zhao Jun looked at Shi Baofeng and asked, "Fourth Uncle, how about I give you another 1,000 yuan?"

"No, no." Shi Baofeng shook his head and said, "Nephew, that's too far."

"Tsk." Zhao Jun smacked his lips when he heard that. He looked at the two albino sable skins in front of him and asked, "Six thousand five?"

Shi Baofeng still shook his head, and then said, "Nephew, I'll give you a smaller amount, nine thousand five."

He had just said 10,000 yuan, but now he had already lowered the price to 500 yuan. Zhao Jun saw that there was a chance, but he also shook his head and said, "Uncle, 4,000 or 5,000 yuan for a piece of skin is too scary. How about this, I'll give you 6,800 yuan."

Zhao Jun added another 300 yuan, but Shi Baofeng still disagreed. But to be honest, Shi Baofeng really wanted to sell the two skins. As he said, there were places to spend money everywhere in the house.

He also suspected that the Zheng father and son were talking nonsense, but the price Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang had given before was too low, far from the price he had in mind.

At this time, Zhao Jun kept raising the price, but Shi Baofeng couldn't reduce it. What would happen?

So Shi Baofeng started to prepare to leave.

Wang Qiang hurriedly stopped them when he saw this, while Wang Meilan offered a price on behalf of Zhao Jun, saying, "Brother, let me round it up for you. How about 7,000?"

Shi Baofeng paused for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "No, sister."

After the refusal, Shi Baofeng added, "If you really want to take it, give me 9,000 yuan. I'll give you another 500 yuan for your sake."

"Fourth Uncle." Zhao Jun interrupted and said to Shi Baofeng, "I am sincere in buying and you are sincere in selling. Just give me a real price. If it works, I will take it."

After hearing what Zhao Jun said, Shi Baofeng hesitated for two seconds, then said, "Eight thousand six hundred yuan."

Seeing that Zhao Jun still shook his head, Shi Baofeng sighed and said, "Nephew, if this doesn't work, then I will go back."

As he spoke, Shi Baofeng took two albino sable skins and began to roll them up, ready to leave.

"Oh, Fourth Brother." Seeing Zhao Jun winking at him, Wang Qiang hurriedly said to Shi Baofeng, "Go back, who are you going to sell these two skins to?"

Wang Qiang's words stumped Shi Baofeng, but he couldn't easily say anything at this time. Shi Baofeng gritted his teeth and said, "Let's wait for those two from Hebei to come again."

That being said, although Shi Baofeng didn't know that the Zheng father and son had been arrested, he also felt that the father and son could no longer buy his fur.

After hearing what Shi Baofeng said, Wang Qiang looked at Zhao Jun. Seeing Zhao Jun calmly watching Shi Baofeng roll up the tube without any action, Wang Qiang did not say anything to Shi Baofeng.

Shi Baofeng finished rolling a piece of leather under the watchful eyes of Zhao Jun, Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang. He was a little flustered at this moment. When he picked up the second piece of leather, Shi Baofeng smacked his lips and said, "I have been rolling leather for fifteen years, and I have only seen two white ones like this."

Upon hearing this, Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang both looked at Zhao Jun. Seeing that Zhao Jun did not move, they kept silent and let Shi Baofeng continue to roll the rubber tube.

After the two leather drums were placed side by side on the kang table, Shi Baofeng could not help but say to Zhao Jun: "Nephew, can you give me some more?"

"Uncle, seven thousand is not a small amount." Zhao Jun frowned and blinked, and said, "How much more can I give you?"

"Just add a little bit." Shi Baofeng said, "As the old saying goes, things are valuable because they are rare. Go out and ask around. Has anyone seen Bai Dapi?"

"Oh my!" Zhao Jun sighed after hearing what Shi Baofeng said, looked at the two leather rolls on the table, and then raised his head and said, "Uncle, I can only, can only give you another 200 yuan."

"Seven thousand two?" Shi Baofeng asked. Zhao Jun nodded heavily and said, "That's the price."

"This... this won't work." Shi Baofeng said, "It has to be at least 8,200."

"Uncle, I really can't give you that." Zhao Jun shook his head and said, "Seven thousand and two is not a small amount, which is three thousand and sixty per piece. Compared with the ordinary big leather, it is almost doubled."

"It should be doubled at least." Upon hearing this, Shi Baofeng took a leather roll and said, "Even if you put a hundred pieces of leather in it, you can't see any white."

"Oh!" Zhao Jun sighed, touched his head with his right hand, and then stroked the back of his head, looking worried.

Seeing this, Wang Meilan hurriedly pushed Zhao Jun and said to Shi Baofeng, "Fourth brother, listen to me. If you are okay, then it's okay. If you are not okay, then forget it."

"Sister, you tell me." As the fight continued, Shi Baofeng gradually lost the upper hand. But it wasn't that Zhao Jun was bullying, but Wang Qiang was right. Who would you sell yourself to after you leave this door?

Of course, the main reason is that the price offered by Zhao Jun was close to Shi Baofeng’s psychological price.

"Seven thousand five hundred yuan." Wang Meilan said to Shi Baofeng, "Fourth brother, if you say yes, I'll give you some money now. If you say no, then you can have lunch here before leaving."

"Seven thousand five..." Shi Baofeng frowned and tilted his head, looking like he was unable to make a decision.

"Alright, Fourth Brother." Wang Qiang said, "Seven thousand five hundred yuan, that's enough."

"Oh my..." Shi Baofeng sighed deeply, slapped his hand on the Zhao family's kang table, and said, "Okay, seven thousand five is seven thousand five."

After saying this, Shi Baofeng pressed the two leather rolls forward and said to Zhao Jun, "Take them, nephew."

Zhao Jun heard this, took the two leather rolls, handed them to Wang Meilan, and said, "Mom, hurry up and give some money to my fourth uncle."

"Okay." After Wang Meilan took it, she quickly walked towards the west room.

Soon, Wang Meilan brought seven and a half stacks of big unity notes, piled them on the table, and said to Shi Baofeng, "Fourth brother, check it out."

Shi Baofeng didn't hesitate to take the big unity. At this time, Wang Meilan said, "Fourth brother, you check it. I'll go cook for you, and we can eat here at noon."

"Sister, please don't do it." Shi Baofeng refused: "Even if you do, I can't eat it. I have something to do at home. I have to go back soon."

After hearing what they said, Wang Meilan did not try to keep him. After Shi Baofeng checked one stack of money, he stuffed the money into the inner pocket of his cotton-padded jacket. After checking everything, Shi Baofeng stood up and said goodbye, and Zhao Jun and Wang Qiang saw him out the door.

After watching Shi Baofeng leave, the uncle and nephew turned around and saw Li Baoyu and Jie Chen climbing over the wall.

Looking at the swollen bear gall in Li Baoyu's hand, Wang Qiang asked Zhao Jun with a smile, "Nephew, are you going to kill another copper gall?"

"Yeah." Zhao Jun smiled and said, "It's okay today."

Li Baoyu hung the bear gall in the warehouse and joined the other three people to go into the house.

When someone came to sell goods, Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang were entertaining guests in the east room, while Zhao Ling, Xu Chunyan and others were in the west room.

As soon as Shi Baofeng left, everyone went to the outer room to prepare dinner.

As soon as Zhao Jun entered the room, he asked Wang Meilan, "Oh my god, where are those two white guys?"

"It's in your room." Wang Meilan raised her hand and gestured to the west room, saying, "I put it in that triangle pocket."

When entertaining guests or discussing business in the east room, even if the deal was done, Wang Meilan could not open the cabinet to take out the money.

So, she put the purse in the west room, in Li Tongyun's hand. Wang Meilan also put the two pieces of leather she bought just now in the west room.

Hearing Wang Meilan's words, Zhao Jun raised his hand and gestured to the west room, and said to Li Baoyu and Jie Chen, "Let's go and take a look at the leather."

"What kind of leather is it?" Li Baoyu and Jie Chen were both curious.

When the three men entered the west room, Li Tongyun was sitting on the kang and counting the accounts. Seeing the three men coming in, Li Tongyun hurriedly greeted them.

"Sister." Zhao Jun pointed to the bulging triangle bag on the edge of the kang and asked Li Tongyun, "Are the two skins you just bought here?"

"Yeah, Junge." Li Tongyun pointed at the triangle pocket with the end of his pencil and said, "All the big skins I collected today are here."

This girl has been hanging out with the Chamber of Commerce for a few days and already knows Da Pi.

"So many big hides today?" Zhao Jun was stunned, and then he heard Li Tongyun say, "They were all sold to us by the man who just came here."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Jun hurriedly sat down on the edge of the kang, grabbed the triangular bag and took out the two leather rolls from it with one hand.

"Oh my!" When Li Baoyu and Jie Chen saw it, their attention was instantly attracted by the two leather rolls.

"Brother Jun, what is this?" Jie Chen asked in surprise, and Li Tongyun beside him also came over.

The girl was very well-mannered. She was very curious just now, but Wang Meilan just put the leather in her pocket. She was the only one in the room, so she didn't look through it.

The layman looks at the excitement and the insider looks at the doorway.

When Zhao Jun opened the leather roll, Li Tongyun didn't think much of it. The Zhao family had collected a lot of white fox skins before, and in her opinion, this one was not as big as a white fox.

"Oh my God!" Li Baoyu took the albino sable skin, rubbed it twice, looked at Zhao Jun in surprise and asked, "Brother, is this a big skin?"

Zhao Jun nodded twice, then asked Li Baoyu with a smile: "Baoyu, how much do you guess?"

"How much is it?" Li Baoyu asked. Zhao Jun smiled and said, "Seven thousand five for two?"

"Ah?" Li Baoyu, Jie Chen and Li Tongyun were all shocked, and at this time, Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang also came in.

"Son." Wang Meilan came over and asked Zhao Jun, "This thing... we bought it at such a high price, we can't let it get away with it, right?"

"Mom, don't worry." Zhao Jun took the albino sable skin that Li Baoyu returned and said to Wang Meilan, "When we get to Hebei, the money we earn from these two skins will be as much as the money we earn from the skins and bear gallbladders combined."

After hearing what Zhao Jun said, everyone was even more surprised.

Wang Qiang took the albino sable skin from Zhao Jun, rubbed it for a few times, and asked Zhao Jun: "Nephew, how much do you want to sell it for? Is anyone interested?"

"Uncle." Zhao Jun said with a smile, "Our family is well off in this village and in this forest area. But if we go to a big city, there are many people who are richer than us."

……

Today's lunch was quite simple. The staple food was boiled frozen dumplings, and the side dishes were blanched radish and sauerkraut with dipping sauce.

Before I even finished my meal, business started coming again.

Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang put down their bowls and chopsticks and went to the east room to entertain the guests.

The visitor was from Yongfutun. He came here to sell two pieces of gray skin, but he also smoked two cigarettes, drank half a pot of tea, and sat for nearly half an hour before leaving.

After seeing them off, when Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang came back to eat, the dumplings were all clumped together.

Zhao Ling suggested that she would fry the dumplings for the brother and sister, but Wang Meilan didn't allow her to do so. The two sisters hurriedly finished their dumplings, and just as they put down their chopsticks and hadn't even waited to drink the dumpling soup, another customer came.

Three people came at once, two of whom were acquaintances, the brothers Wei Tie and Wei Jin.

The yellow leaves that the two brothers picked had long been sold to the Zhao family. Today they came here with Wei Jin's elder brother-in-law.

Wei Jin's brother-in-law lives in Xinxingtun. He came here today to sell seven yellow leaves.

It took more than twenty minutes to entertain these three people, and they didn't leave until the next group of people selling mountain products arrived.

The new group of people were also acquaintances, Jiang Ming and Wei Lai from Yongshengtun. They took three bear gallbladders and exchanged them for 4,000 yuan from the Zhao family.

Zhao Jun sent the two men out of the hospital and once again promised Wei Lai that he would give him a litter of puppies in the early spring of next year.

When Zhao Jun returned to the house, he saw Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang sitting on the kang drinking water. He said to them with some concern: "Mom, uncle, you two are not idle all day?"

People who sell mountain products come before dark, but the forest area gets dark early in winter, so there is no one after three o'clock. Before three o'clock, it is really busy.

These days, Zhao Jun has been running outside during the day, and for the first time he realized how difficult it is for Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang.

"Oh my!" Wang Meilan sighed and said, "What should we do, son? The people who come here are from all over the village, many of them are relatives, and some are old neighbors. When they come to our house, shouldn't you entertain them?"

There is no way, this is how it is these days. No matter if someone comes to sell something or just to chat, as long as they enter the house, you have to serve tea and water, and greet them on the table and under the table.

"Brother." At this time, Li Baoyu came over from the west room and said to Zhao Jun, "Come on, let's go to my house and have a nap."

They were tired after hunting and catching bears in the mountains today, so it was normal for them to take a nap when they got home.

But the Zhao family's east room was used to entertain guests, and the women in the west room were sitting on the kang knitting sweaters. If Zhao Jun and his friends wanted to take a nap, they had to go to the Li family next door.

Not only them, but even Zhao Hong, Zhao Na, and Li Xiaoqiao all ate next door when they came back at noon.

"Go, son." Wang Meilan was very considerate of her son and waved her hand, saying, "You can go with Baoyu and have a rest."

Just as Wang Meilan finished speaking, the dog outside started barking again, and another visitor came.

Zhao Jun asked Li Baoyu and Jie Chen to hide in the west room. No matter who came, he was a junior and Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang were at home, so it was impossible for him to entertain the guests alone.

Therefore, Zhao Jun couldn't share the burden with Wang Meilan and Wang Qiang. If he didn't hide, he would have to accompany the guests.

Wang Qiang went out and invited them into the east room. While they were chatting, Zhao Jun and his two companions slipped out of the house and climbed over the wall to Li's house.

Entering Li Baoyu and Li Ruhai's room, the three brothers lay flat on the kang. The hot kang warmed their bodies and relieved their fatigue. This is called "burning the waist and buttocks".

Hearing Zhao Jun sigh, Xie Chen, who was lying on the left side of Zhao Jun, said very tactfully: "Brother Jun, my aunt and uncle have been too hard-working today. They have been busy all day, and my mom and the others can't take their place."

This is the Zhao family, and no one else can entertain them.

"Will it be fine in a few days?" Li Baoyu asked in a low voice, "The night before yesterday, when I came back from the East Courtyard, I heard my father and mother muttering that Ru Hai should not be in charge of forestry protection, but should be let my uncle do it."

Although Li Dayong failed to convince Jin Xiaomei, Li Baoyu felt that with Zhao Youcai's "ability", he would definitely become the last forestry security guard.

"Yeah." Zhao Jun smiled and said, "Today is his last shift. Let him stay at home to replace my uncle tomorrow."

"Brother Jun, that won't work if it takes too long, right?" Xie Chen said, "Look at the people who came today, each of them has a heavy butt and won't leave once they sit down."

Yes, they come to sell goods and visit, so the Zhao family has to accompany them. The key is that after accompanying this one, there is the next one. If you accompany them for a day. After a long time, no one can stand it.

"I have to think of a plan." Zhao Jun listened to Jie Chen's words and squinted his eyes as he thought of a solution.

……

As night falls over the mountains and forests, the day's work is coming to an end.

Zhao Youcai took a box of Shilin cigarettes, tore it in the middle, broke it with both hands, and scattered the cigarettes on the table. Then he called everyone in the kitchen, "Come, come, have a smoke."

Everyone came forward, but no one reached for the cigarettes.

At this time, Zhao Youcai's apprentice Liu Wenhua asked Zhao Youcai, "Master, are you really leaving?"

"Old boy." Zhao Youcai took a cigarette, put it on the little apprentice's ear, and said, "You should work hard and learn more from your uncle Dachun and brother Daming."

Their generations are quite confusing, and each one has his own name.

As he spoke, Zhao Youcai picked up cigarettes and distributed them to everyone.

"Oh my!" Zhao Youcai patted his third disciple's arm, who looked sad, and said with a smile, "What are you doing? I'm not moving away from this forest area. It's not like we won't see each other again."

After saying this, Zhao Youcai put the cigarette in the third apprentice's mouth and said, "I'm free this time. When I go up the mountain to hunt wild boars and roe deer, I'll prepare a table for us all to have fun."

Zhao Youcai is a man who acts like a master to his disciples. He is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. No matter which disciple is in trouble, Zhao Youcai will help. The most important thing is that he does not hide anything when teaching his disciples. He teaches his disciples everything he knows.

Zhao Youcai has a high prestige in the cafeteria, and all his apprentices obey his orders.

Now that Zhao Youcai is leaving, although he is not moving, these people are reluctant to let him go.

At this point, Zhao Youcai was a little reluctant to leave, but when he thought about leading a dog and carrying a gun, roaring in the mountains from now on, Zhao Youcai became determined again.

As the bell for the end of get off work rang, Zhao Youcai walked out. The moment he lifted the cotton door curtain, Zhao Youcai looked back at the place where he had "fought".

"Tomorrow I will embrace a new life!" Zhao Youcai raised his hand, lifted the door curtain high, and walked out of the cafeteria.

……

The Zhao family had a good meal today, including wild boar stewed with pickled cabbage, braised wild boar ribs, stewed wild boar boneless meat with garlic paste, and wild boar leg fried with garlic sprouts...

This wild boar meat was purchased. Zhao Ling bought the yellow-haired meat from Chen Dalai's house.

When I returned home last night, I saw Chen Dalai and his two brothers-in-law. The three of them were dragging two yellow-haired boys back. Zhao Ling took both of them directly.

After dragging them to her house, she and Wang Qiang stripped one of them and left the other outside to freeze, preparing to have Zhao Jun take it to Huludao and give it to Zhao Weipeng when he left.

After gutting the yellow-haired animal, there was more than 60 pounds left, and only 37 pounds of good meat were taken out.

While roasting the meat, Wang Meilan sighed, saying that her family used to sell wild boars, but she never expected that now her family would need to buy wild boars to eat.

As the dishes were served one by one, the five people who were at work returned.

After returning home, Zhao Youcai announced loudly that he had successfully transferred from a chef to a forestry security guard.

Immediately afterwards, Zhao Youcai stated that the purpose of his transfer was to return home to help make the Zhao Family Chamber of Commerce bigger and stronger.

As soon as Zhao Youcai finished speaking, there was thunderous applause in the room, and Wang Qiang's hands turned red from clapping.

Men and women sat in separate rooms. Zhao Youcai was very happy tonight and kept raising his glass to invite everyone to drink together.

Wang Qiang was also very happy tonight. He raised his glass twice to toast his brother-in-law. It was not until the third time that Wang Qiang was stopped by Zhao Jun with a look.

After eating and drinking, the diners went home.

Zhao Youcai, slightly tipsy, lay flat on the kang, his eyes closed, his face facing the shed, his left foot crossed with his right, swaying while humming: "The first month of the year is the New Year, I leave my lover to watch the lanterns. The lanterns and dances are so lively, let's see if my lover is real or not"

Zhao Youcai paused after humming this and asked again, "Is it true?"

When Wang Meilan came in carrying the thermos, she saw Zhao Youcai like this, as well as Zhao Hong and Zhao Na who were staring at their father on the other side of the kang.

"Stop whining." Wang Meilan went over and pulled Zhao Youcai, saying, "Get up and wash your feet."

Zhao Youcai chuckled, propped himself up on the kang, and then heard Wang Meilan say, "I've been busy all day, and my back hurts from exhaustion. You can't even wash your feet yourself."

"I'll do it myself. I'll do it myself." Zhao Youcai hurriedly took the thermos, then took the wash basin from under the table against the wall, and then called his two daughters, "Second daughter, eldest daughter, come here, daddy will wash your feet."

After greeting the two little girls, Zhao Youcai waved his hand at Wang Meilan and said, "Lan, you don't have to worry about anything tomorrow. Your old man is here to take care of it."

Someone suddenly came to my house today, so I didn’t go into the city. It will snow tomorrow and the temperature will drop to minus ten degrees Celsius at night. I won’t go out for the next few days.

Before I knew it, I had been writing this book for a thousand days and had written 520 million words.

When I started writing the book, I didn’t expect that I would be able to achieve this day. At that time, I only updated one chapter every two or three days, and it took me nearly three months to write 100,000 words.

Later, the updates were irregular, and I didn’t even have full attendance in the first month. Later, more and more people read the book, and I was told that it was not okay, and I had to take a leave if I didn’t update.

Slowly, as the old saying goes, it was put on me like a small splint. It has been 1000 days in a flash, and I feel quite emotional when I think about it.

Sometimes I have a hard time updating, and sometimes I fail to keep up. My brothers are not like me, they are very tolerant of me, and I know what’s going on.

Thank you brothers for your companionship for a thousand days. I will work harder in the future and try to write more.
