The whole mountain is my hunting ground.

Chapter 744

There was a heavy snow yesterday, and today the mountain animals will not easily nest, so after Zhao Jun and the others finished their morning, they chatted at Huang Gui's house.

Just as Chen Xueyi was eating roast donkey dung and eggs, the two dogs in the front yard of Huang Gui's house suddenly barked.

"Yo!" Huang Gui stretched his neck and glanced out of the courtyard, and saw a middle-aged man standing outside his courtyard door through the window, seeing this person's appearance clearly, Huang Gui hurriedly got off the kang, and walked out with his shoes on. While shouting: "Who is it, hurry up, Zhiqiang is here!"

Song Lan, who was working in the outhouse, heard the words, hurriedly rubbed her hands on her clothes, and followed Huang Gui to greet her outside.

Judging by the posture of the couple, the visitor should be a distinguished guest!

After a while, Huang Gui let one of them into the house. As soon as they entered the door, Huang Gui raised his hand to Zhang Yuanmin, and introduced him, "This is Yuanmin."

As soon as the man heard this, he quickly walked towards Zhang Yuanmin, and stretched out his hand to Zhang Yuanmin after a few steps away.

"Ouch!" Zhang Yuanmin got up quickly, held hands with the man, and looked at Huang Gui at the same time.

Huang Gui supported the man's shoulders with both hands, and said to Zhang Yuanmin, "This is Shao Jun's father."

"Ah!" Zhang Yuanmin smiled and nodded after hearing this.

"This is Zhao Jun." Zhang Yuanmin introduced Zhao Jun to Shao Zhiqiang.

When Shao Zhiqiang shook hands with Zhao Jun, he said with a smile, "I have heard of you for a long time, and I always hear my brother Huang talking about you."

Zhao Jun smiled, and after Shao Zhiqiang shook hands with Xie Chen, Song Lan greeted, "Zhiqiang, you go to the kang, and I will pour water for you."

"Don't be so busy, sister-in-law." Shao Zhiqiang hurriedly called Song Lan to stop, and then said, "I'll be leaving right away."

"Then why are you in a hurry?" Huang Gui said, "Let's eat here at noon and let your sister-in-law prepare two dishes."

"No!" Shao Zhiqiang waved his hand and said, "Brother Huang, I came to your house just to greet you and come to my house for dinner at night."

As he said that, Shao Zhiqiang snarled his hands out, and said to Zhao Jun and others: "These little brothers, as well as my sister-in-law, Guofu, and Minqiang, all go to my house at night."

Hearing this, Huang Gui knew that Lao Shao's family was going to be a host, so he thanked Zhang Yuanmin for bringing his family's single seedling back from the mountain.

At this time, Song Lan asked Shao Zhiqiang with a smile, "Zhiqiang, what are you doing?"

"Come on, sister-in-law." Shao Zhiqiang waved to Song Lan, and said, "You are here, and you can help your siblings to work, to work, or she can't do it by herself."

After Song Lan heard Shao Zhiqiang's words, she turned her attention to Huang Gui. Huang Gui nodded at Song Lan first, and then said to Shao Zhiqiang, "Okay, let's go there tonight."

"Let's have dinner tonight." Shao Zhiqiang said with a smile, "You have to come here early."

As soon as Shao Zhiqiang finished speaking, he got Huang Gui's affirmative answer. He smiled slightly, turned around and extended his hand to Zhang Yuanmin. When he briefly shook hands with Zhao Jun and the three of them, Shao Zhiqiang said a treat.

After Zhao Jun and Shao Zhiqiang were polite, Shao Zhiqiang bid farewell to everyone. When he was walking out, everyone came out to see him off and sent him out of the hospital.

After returning to the room and sitting down again, Huang Gui asked Zhao Jun and the others, "Is this guy not bad?"

Hearing Huang Gui's question, Zhao Jun and the others nodded repeatedly. This Shao Zhiqiang was much better at dealing with people than that Chen Xueyi.

At this time, Song Lan put the frozen mountain grapes on the table, then raised her hand and pointed out, and said to Zhao Jun, "He arranged for the mallet your brother used to heal his legs."

"Ah." When Zhao Jun heard Song Lan's words, he couldn't help but think of the black tiger in the backyard. At this moment, he thought that he might also be able to buy a mallet from that Shao Zhiqiang.

"Sister-in-law, that person who came here just now, he also carried the ginseng." Jie Chen interjected and asked.

"Yeah." Song Lan nodded and said, "He's a leader, what are you thinking about?"

"Ah?" Jie Chen was taken aback, and said in surprise, "You don't look like a mountain runner!"

It's no wonder that Xie Chen was suspicious, that Shao Zhiqiang was well-mannered and well-dressed, he looked like a teacher.

"Oh!" Huang Gui sighed and said, "Where are the twenty or so people under his command?"

As he spoke, Huang Gui raised his hand and gestured out of the window: "Only our few villages, all the mountain hunters are willing to go with him as long as he beckons."

After hearing Huang Gui's words, Zhao Jun knew that Shao Zhiqiang was not easy.Carrying ginseng in the mountains is different from playing siege. Some people play siege as a hobby.Men, like guns, the pursuit of excitement.

But releasing mountains is all for money.

The fact that Shao Zhiqiang has such an appeal shows that he can lead others to make money, otherwise who would follow him willingly?

With 20 people under his command, he can be regarded as the best in the mountain trek.One must know that Yongsheng's Pang family gang only has nine members.

Going to a banquet in the evening, Song Lan simply stewed radish and potato stick soup at noon, and cleaned up the leftover steamed buns in the morning.

After lunch, after a short rest, Zhao Jun, Zhang Yuanmin, and Xie Chen went out with Huang Gui. The four of them went to the village shop to buy some canned food and pastries, and then went home to call Song Lan, mother and son.Then, the group went straight to Shao's house.

After walking for three to five minutes, I came to a crop yard and saw green smoke rising from the chimney. Huang Guidang entered the yard first and called out, "Who will leave the house?"

"Hey!" As soon as Huang Gui finished speaking, Shao Zhiqiang brought his wife Lin Yueying out of the house with Shao Jun.

After a few people exchanged simple greetings in the courtyard, Shao Zhiqiang let Zhao Jun and others go inside.

Shao Zhiqiang and Huang Gui walked ahead, followed by Zhao Jun, Zhang Yuanmin, Xie Chen and Shao Jun, followed by Guofu and Minqiang.The two women, Song Lan and Lin Yueying, walked last, talking and laughing with their arms crossed.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw an old man standing in the outer room of Shao's house, about 60 years old, with gray hair and wearing a brown padded jacket.

This old man is a lot taller than Zhao Jun. He is 1.8 meters tall. Although his eyes are not big, he has kind eyebrows and kind eyes.

He is Shao Jun's grandfather Shao Tianpeng.

As soon as Huang Gui at the front came in, Shao Tianpeng smiled and said, "Here we come, Huang'er."

When the old man smiled, his face was full of wrinkles, his eyes disappeared from the smile, and he looked very kind.

"Hey." Huang Gui was usually sore and peeing, but when he saw Shao Tianpeng, he bent down with a smile and called "Uncle Shao".

Shao Tianpeng smiled and nodded in response, then turned his gaze to Zhao Jun and the others.

At this moment, Shao Jun took Zhang Yuanmin and introduced him to Shao Tianpeng, "Master, this is my Brother Zhang."

Shao Tianpeng took a look at Zhang Yuanmin, and found that this little man was not young anymore, and it seemed inappropriate to call him a young man, so he cupped his fists at Zhang Yuanmin and said, "Men, I owe you yesterday."

"Hey, old man." Zhang Yuanmin waved his hands quickly, then clasped his hands together, kowtowed to Shao Tianpeng twice in mid-air, and said, "The people in the mountains have caught up. There is no one who doesn't help."

The old man smiled when he heard the words, and said: "That's a good point, then we have Huang'er, so let's not talk about it."

Zhang Yuanminlian claimed that it was true. At this time, Shao Jun introduced Zhao Jun and Xie Chen to his grandfather, and the old man smiled kindly at the two of them: "You are welcome to come to our house. When you come, treat it as your own home."

"Okay, old man." Zhao Jun responded, then glanced at Shao Jun next to him, then turned back and said to Shao Tianpeng: "Our three brothers are of the same generation as Shao Jun, so we will always call you Lord Shao."

If they followed Huang Guilun, Zhao Jun and the others could call Shao Tianpeng an uncle, but when they were away from home, they tried not to lift themselves up.

"Hey!" Shao Tianpeng laughed when he heard what Zhao Jun said, "What a boy."

At this time, both Zhang Yuanmin and Xie Chen took a step forward, together with Guofu and Minqiang, they called out "Master Shao" to Shao Tianpeng in unison.

Shao Tianpeng answered again, then raised his chin at Song Lan who had just entered the door, and said with a smile, "Xiao Lanzi is here?"

"Uncle Shao." Song Lan just said hello when she heard an old voice from the back room: "Why is it so lively outside?"

Hearing this voice, Shao Tianpeng turned his head and rushed into the room and said, "Father, there are visitors at home."

After finishing speaking, Shao Tianpeng raised his hand to Zhao Jun and others, and said, "Let's go, let's go into the house."

Everyone followed Shao Tianpeng into the house, and saw a big kang under the south window in the [-]-square-meter big house.

This big kang can accommodate ten people lying down on it!
On the kang there is a kang table with a pestle and an elm, and an old man sits on the east side of the kang table.This old man has white hair and eyebrows, and an unshaven beard, but he is wearing a clean blue cotton padded jacket.

He supported the Kang table with one hand, and he only had this one hand, and the other cuff was on his cross-legged knee, and there was nothing outside the cuff.

The old man's name is Shao Yunjin, not many people know his name, but if you want to mention Shao Bald Claw, even 30 years later, many people in Lingnan and Lingxi Cantonese will know his congratulatory name.

"Master Shao!" As soon as Huang Gui came in, he stretched his arms, leaned over, and handed the two butter paper packages in his hand to the edge of the kang.

"Oh!" Shao Yunjin frowned, and said loudly to Huang Gui: "Come on, come on, what are you doing with things?"

"I didn't buy anything." Huang Gui's voice was also very loud, but he should be taking care of the old man's deafness, and said: "Buy some food, and honor your old man."

Shao Yunjin nodded slightly, and was not polite any more, even if he accepted Huang Gui's gift.At this time, Zhao Jun came forward with two bottles of wine, and when he was about to put the bottles on the edge of the kang, he called Shao Yunjin "Old Master".

Shao Yunjin and Shao Tianpeng are father and son, but the temperament of these two old people is completely different.

Looking at Shao Tianpeng, I just feel that this old man is very kind and kind.

But Shao Yunjin was not the case, the old man of the Shao family had a fierce look on his face.Even though he is in his eighties, it still makes people feel that this old man is not easy to deal with.

Watching Zhao Jun put the wine in front of him, Shao Yunjin glanced at Zhao Jun, then turned his face slightly, and asked Shao Tianpeng loudly, "Who is this?"

"This man's surname is Zhao." Shao Tianpeng gestured forward, including Zhao Jun, Zhang Yuanmin and Xie Chen, and then said: "He, this man, Xie man, the three of them are from Lingnan. They brought it back to our army yesterday."

"Ah!" Hearing Shao Tianpeng's words, Shao Yunjin frowned, narrowed his eyes, and nodded with his mouth wide open. After a pause, he looked at Shao Jun and said, "Why are you coming back? You can't do it!"

Although the old man's words were cruel, everyone could tell that his words were wrong, and Shao Jun poked his head out from behind Zhao Jun, and shouted at Shao Yunjin: "If I don't come back, you have to find me in the middle of the night. ah?"

"I'm looking for you?" Shao Yunjin gave Shao Jun a blank look, then raised his left hand on the kang table, and greeted Zhao Jun and the others: "Come on, get on the kang quickly, it's hot on the top."

Hearing what Shao Yunjin said, Huang Gui, Zhao Jun, Zhang Yuanmin, and Xie Chen went to the kang one after another, and sat on the kang with the two old men of the Shao family, while Shao Zhiqiang took Shao Jun, Guofu, and Minqiang to sit on the bench under the kang.

After everyone sat down, Shao Zhiqiang took out a pack of Shilin cigarettes and unpacked them to spread the cigarettes for everyone.Among the people in the room, except for Zhao Jun, Guofu, and Minqiang, everyone else actually smoked.

Especially the old Shao family, up to 86-year-old Shao Yunjin, down to Shao Jun, their grandparents and grandchildren swallow clouds and fog together for four generations.

Shao Yunjin pinched the cigarette in his hand, exhaled a puff of smoke, looked at Zhao Jun on his right, and asked, "Boy, did you say you are from Lingnan?"

"Yeah." Just as Zhao Jun responded, the old man asked again: "Where is your home in Lingnan?"

"It's from eighteen hills." Zhao Jun was afraid that the old man didn't know what Yong'an was, so he reported the earlier name of Yong'an Forest District.

"Ah?" As soon as Zhao Jun said this, Shao Yunjin and Shao Tianpeng were startled, Shao Yunjin stared and shouted loudly: "Our family is also there."

At this time, Shao Tianpeng stretched out his hand and caressed Shao Yunjin's back, signaling the old man not to get too excited, and then he asked Zhao Jun, "Mr. Zhao, what's your old man's name?"

Shao Tianpeng asked this question just to see if he had any old relationship with Zhao Jun's family.And Zhao Jun thought to himself, his father Zhao Youcai and Shao Tianpeng must not be of the same generation, let alone Shao Yunjin.

So, Zhao Jun reported his grandfather's name, and only heard him say: "My grandfather's name is Zhao Dazhu."

Hearing this name, Shao Yunjin clicked his eyes twice.This name sounds familiar to him, but the reason is that among the people he knows, there must be seven or eight people with this name.

On the other hand, Shao Tianpeng asked Zhao Jun, "Did the Zhao Dazhu you mentioned come from a siege?"

"Yes, yes!" Zhao Jun repeatedly agreed, while Shao Yunjin poked his head towards his son and asked, "Who is it?"

Shao Tianpeng smiled lightly and replied, "Father, you don't know him."

"Ah!" Hearing what Shao Tianpeng said, Shao Yunjin didn't ask any more questions, but he looked at Zhang Yuanmin and gestured: "Isn't your family from Lingnan?"

"Ah, yes." Zhang Yuanmin said, "Old Master, my father's name is Zhang Dahong, and my father's name is Zhang Er'er."

For Zhang Yuanmin's generation, life is always a problem.Famine, war, disease, some families have seven or eight children, and both are considered good if they survive.

I can't live anymore, who cares about the first and last name?
As for Zhang Yuanmin's father, Zhang's big head was also a well-known figure in Yong'an Forest District 20 years ago.But his father was not a few years older than Zhao Youcai, and a generation behind Shao Yunpeng.

At this moment, the two elders of the Shao family looked at each other, Shao Tianpeng shook his head slowly, and said with some uncertainty: "I have a little impression, but I can't remember it."

"Master Shao." At this time, Zhang Yuanmin's wit came to him. He remembered that Shao Yunjin had a beard and was from Lingnan. He must know the old man from his wife's family.

So, Zhang Yuanmin straightened his neck and shouted to Shao Yunjin across the kang table: "Old Master, do you always know Blind Yang?"

As soon as Zhang Yuanmin's words came out, Shao Yunjin stared sharply, don't look at this old man 86, but those eyes were not cloudy at all, but rather sharp!
