hunting in 1986

Chapter 138 Chapter 137
The fire outside the yurt was exuding endless heat, and as the flames danced, there was the sound of cracking wood from time to time.

The yurt next door was still howling with wolves, Wang Yuan didn't dare to stay, and rushed out of the yurt where he and Sun Dagang lived with a gun in hand.

When I came to the yurt where Xiao Suhe and his wife lived, I saw the dead body of a hound lying on the ground. The dog had a big hole in its abdomen, and its intestines were exposed a foot long. At this time, the dog had died.

And Xiao Suhe had several bloodstains on his thighs and arms. At this time, he was fighting a wild wolf with a sheep-killing knife. His wife Tuya was lying on the side, seemingly dead.

The wild wolf was bloodthirsty and cruel, with great strength. Its claws pressed the knife closer to Xiao Suhe's face. The sharp claws shone coldly under the light of the fire, as if they were going to cut Xiao Suhe's throat in the next second.

Xiao Suhe exploded with a great desire to survive, and desperately resisted the approach of the wolf's claws, but he had already killed two wild wolves with a knife, and now he was really exhausted.

At this time, the corner of his eye caught sight of Wang Yuan's figure, and he immediately shouted as if grabbing the last straw:
"Wang Yuan! Help me!!"

He responded with two gunshots, bang bang~ one shot hit the wolf's stomach, and the other shot hit the wolf's neck.

The wild wolf whimpered a few times, and then slowly collapsed to the ground with the last trace of reluctance. Blood flowed onto the ground, and a large amount of white snow was stained red.

Xiao Suhe fell to the ground tiredly, ignoring the bleeding from the wound on his body, crawled a little bit closer to his wife Tuya in the east, hugged her and cried loudly.

"Tuya, Tuya~ wake up, Tuya~"

Wang Yuan sighed in his heart, and then quickly ran to the yurt where Old Suhe and the others lived with his gun in hand.

As soon as we arrived at the door, we saw the wounded hunting dog "Broken Forehead" biting the wolf's neck, and the wolf's life passed away little by little, and finally died completely.

Old Suhe, Uzhina, Aunt Sun and Lakshin all fell not far away. Fortunately, the wounds on their bodies were all minor injuries, but they were a little exhausted.

The ground was full of wolf corpses, and some of the furnishings inside were smashed into a mess. One can imagine how brutal the battle was just now.

Wang Yuan's lips twitched twice, and finally he said in a low voice: "Go and see Tuya, she seems to be dying."

"what!!?"

Old Su He stared in disbelief, as if petrified, while the old lady Uzhina burst into tears, stood up with her hands on the ground, and ran out staggeringly.

As for the 14-year-old Lakshin, he sat on the ground blankly, with two lines of tears falling from the corners of his eyes.

Soon, Tuya was carried into the largest yurt, and Uzhina brought some water to feed her, and she slowly opened her eyes.

The thigh in the picture was severely bitten by a wolf, and the reason why he passed out was more because of fright.

"It hurts~"

Tuya was very weak, she felt that she had really died once, and the last picture in her mind was still the scene of the wild wolf biting her fiercely.

The thin Lakshin crawled over and saw his sister-in-law Tuya woke up, he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief: "She's still alive."

Old Su He kicked his ass directly, and Lakshin rolled around on the ground, and then crawled over with a playful smile, as if his sister-in-law's resurrection was the thing that made him happiest.

After harnessing the two carriages, everyone rushed to Ena City together. Most of them were injured, so they had to go to the hospital to have a look. As for Wang Yuan, who was not injured, he was responsible for taking care of everyone as much as possible.

"drive!"

After waving his whip, Wang Yuan drove a carriage and began to move forward. The wheels glistened, followed closely by the carriage driven by old Su He.

The two carriages drove farther and farther under the illumination of oil lamps, and the cold wind gradually disappeared into the distance.

"Woo~"

Only the hunting dog was left in the camp, and his two companions died in this battle, and he was the only one of the three happy dogs.

He dragged the corpses of the two companions together, and then, not afraid of the bleak cold wind, he sobbed and slowly lay beside the two companions, a sense of loneliness and sadness rippling.

……

Just when Wang Yuan and Lao Su went to the city together against the wind and snow.

Wangjiatuner.

Li Yan was sitting cross-legged on the kang, watching TV and sewing clothes. A fat big white cat was lying cross-legged on her lap, its fur was soft, and its belly was snoring.

"Hurrrrrrr~"

Li Yan's right eyelid twitched wildly, and she was always restless. She licked two big white cats, and after watching TV, she was about to continue sewing, when suddenly, the needle tip pricked her finger. head.

"Hi~"

Li Yan frowned for a moment, put the bleeding finger in her mouth and sucked it, then bit off the thread in frustration, and inserted the needle into the corn husk used as a spool.

"Come on, you get up first, and my legs are numb."

Li Yan picked up the big white cat, which was staring confused and radiating heat like a small stove, put her aside, put on her shoes and got off the kang, and went to the main room to drink the boiled water that had been dried long ago.

Looking at the moon in the sky through the door, Li Yan frowned even deeper:
"My heart is very chaotic, and my right eyelid keeps twitching. Xiaoyuan won't have any accidents, right? Hey~ This heart is really wild. How nice it is to stay at home comfortably for a while."

After taking a few sips of cool water, Li Yan poured the water from the bowl into the swill bucket, and then went back to the back room to continue watching TV.

"Meow~"

The big orange cat happily wagged the tip of its tail, lay cross-legged on Li Yan's lap and continued to sleep, Li Yan's hand gently stroked her, and the big white cat slept more soundly.

……

After arriving at the hospital, Wang Yuan busily helped with registration, payment and so on. After everything was done, it was already 12:[-] at night. He sat tiredly on the wooden chair in the corridor, wrapped his coat tightly and began to take a nap Son.

Several people need to be hospitalized, and today is inseparable.

Tuya was the most seriously injured. She stayed in the hospital for three consecutive days before she was discharged. However, old Suhe and Uzhina went back the next day. Go back and take care of the sheep, cows and horses you raised.

These animals can't do without people.

After Tuya could be discharged from the hospital, everyone returned to the camp. Although many people were injured this time, fortunately they survived the attack by the wolves.

Friends from the old Su He's family came to visit them one after another. Some rode horses, some rode motorcycles, and some came by ox cart. The scene was extremely lively.

In the end, a grand gathering was organized, and all the wolf meat that was hunted this time was eaten. As the weather was getting late, more than 20 guests all stayed overnight.

Wang Yuan took a moment to find Old Su He who was feeding the sheep fodder, and explained his intention to buy sheep and wolf skins.

"You want to buy sheep and wolf skins? Wang Yuanyi has been very kind to my family. You don't need to pay any money. I'll catch you as much as you want."

Old Su He spoke slowly so that Wang Yuan could hear clearly.

"You don't need money. It's not easy for you with such a big sheep. Besides, I don't want one sheep, at least 10 or more."

Under Wang Yuan's persuasion, Old Su He finally agreed to accept the money for selling the sheep. The whole sheep is quite cheap at 5 cents and 5 catties. As for the 20 or so wolf skins, Old Su He didn't pay a penny. I want to give it all to Wang Yuan.

This can be regarded as repaying Wang Yuan's kindness. Without Wang Yuan, his family's nephew Sun Dagang, son Xiao Suhe and daughter-in-law would probably all die.

Even Old Suhe and the others couldn't survive.

After all, Wang Yuan had killed several wolves, if Wang Yuan hadn't killed the many wolves, he would have easily killed Old Su He and the others.

Early the next morning, Wang Yuan borrowed a carriage and left the camp carrying tied sheep and wolf skins, aiming for the market in the east.

The carriage was driving on the snow, and when there was no one else around, he put the sheep and wolf skins into the space, and then drove the carriage to the local specialty store, where he bought another 3 rounds The bullet just left.

The owner of the souvenir shop was stunned. He thought that Wang Yuan had used up the 3 rounds of ammunition he had bought in the past few days. Wang Yuan smiled and did not explain.

For the next week or so, Wang Yuan, Xiao Suhe, Lakshin, and Sun Dagang often went for walks on the snow field. Although they didn't meet wild wolves again, they caught quite a few wild sheep and wild rabbits.

During this exaggeration, the friendship between Wang Yuan and them gradually deepened.

In addition, Xiao Suhe brought back two little milk dogs from his uncle's house. The fluffy puppies are like two meat balls, they can't stand up, and they always like to lie on the ground and search for things.

The two puppies will be the new partners of the hunting dog. When they grow up, they can hunt together with the hunting dog.

When they were about to leave, Xiao Suhe and Lakshin were very reluctant to part with them, and then they took the hunting dog with uneven foreheads, went outside to dig out the hibernating marmots, and then gave them the harvested marmot skins.

At night, Sun Dagang was very happy, touched the soft marmot skin and said: "It's really good, go back and wear the whole marmot hat, then I don't know how many people will die of envy."

Lying in the yurt, Wang Yuan looked at his watch and found that it was past 11 o'clock at night, so he covered the quilt and closed his eyes, saying, "Go to sleep, tomorrow is the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, and we should go back."

Sun Dagang nodded, played with the marmot skin again, and then slowly fell asleep.

Marmot is also called groundhog, which is the kind of thing that can scream loudly. The skin of this animal is also a very important thermal insulation material on the grassland.

In Lindu, only people of considerable status can wear marmot hats, and most ordinary people can only wear dog fur hats and cotton hats.

The next day.

After breakfast, Wang Yuan, Sun Dagang and Aunt Sun were planning to leave, but Aunt Sun's wife, Mrs. U Rina, kept holding on to her hand, and finally they all burst into tears.

It took a whole year to say goodbye, she was already very old, and she lived on the frontier grassland where there was a lack of medical care and extremely difficult conditions. She didn't even know that she would live to see her grandson next year.

So I hope she can stay for a few more days.

Aunt Sun was full of helplessness. She was also very embarrassed and couldn't live here forever. She was a worker and the factory was about to start.

In the end, I could only agree to stay for the last day, but it turned out that tomorrow will be the next day, and I will stay for another 7 days before leaving.

Wang Yuan was thoroughly enjoying himself on the grassland. Every day he either chased the rabbit or chased the fox. After dinner at night, everyone often danced together. Gradually, his Mongolian dance became better and better.

Moreover, he also asked old Su He to help him build the bridge, and bought dozens of sheep from several of his relatives and friends, so there were a total of 70 sheep in the space.

5 cents/catties, which is the normal price of grassland forte.

The yield rate of sheep is about 45% to 55%. Calculated at 50%, the pasture price of mutton is about 1.1 yuan/jin.

As for the mutton in Harbin City, the retail price has risen to 4 yuan/catties, and the profit margin is very large, which is very attractive.

It's a pity that the herdsmen live too scattered, and if they want to bring the sheep into the space, they have to try to hide their eyes and ears in advance, which is very troublesome.

In addition, Wang Yuan has a faster way to make money, so it is fine to get dozens of sheep.

14-year-old Lakshin likes to read books. He has a copy of "Pushkin's Poems" and "Journey to the West".

Wang Yuan directly gave him a copy of "Three Hundred Tang Poems", a copy of "Border Town", and a copy of "Legend of the Condor Heroes". In an instant, Lakshin's back molars were exposed when he smiled, and he was as tight as a treasure. Hold the three books tightly in your arms, just like holding a beloved girl.

Take a bullock cart to Ena City, then take a bus to HLBE, and finally go home by train.

……

When the train stopped in Lindu, it was just after three o'clock in the afternoon. Wang Yuan did not stop in the city, but took out a shotgun, wolf skin, marmot skin and 10 catties of mutton from the space, and found a remote place to release the motorcycle. , riding a motorcycle to rush home quickly.

This time he left for more than half a month, and he missed his wife Li Yan and the three dogs he raised so much.

Li Yan was about to hold the wood for cooking when she heard the chug-chug of the motorcycle and looked back to find that it was really Wang Yuan who had returned.

In an instant, he threw an armful of wooden scorpions on the ground, and ran to open the fence gate for him.

"Why have you been away for so long, and you haven't sent a letter to your family! I wondered if you didn't come back on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month? It turned out that you really didn't come back. I wanted Huzi and the others to find you."

Li Yan's eyes turned red, and then she punched Wang Yuan hard.

God knows how worried she was about Wang Yuan during this period, and she was even absent-minded when doing things.

Sometimes there is no water in the pot, just put the grate fork, cover the curtain, the steamed buns and vegetables start to burn, and finally the steamed buns are so black that they can only be peeled and eaten.

Sometimes the dogs were obviously not fed, but she thought they were, so the three dogs could only starve for one meal, and when they got hungry, they could only eat snow to satisfy their hunger.

"Okay, okay, I'm back, look, I brought back wolf skins, marmot skins and the best lamb!"

After Wang Yuan parked the motorcycle, he went in with Li Yan in his arms, then turned around and closed the door, and carried her to the back room.

It's a little late for dinner today.

Wang Yuan made a small iron pot, then called Wang Meng and Wang Hu, and started to boil the mutton.

While eating delicious mutton, Wang Meng and Wang Hu were dumbfounded as they listened to Wang Yuan's story about this wonderful experience.

"Exciting! If I knew I would follow, I haven't killed a wolf yet." Wang Hu slapped his thigh and couldn't help but regret it.

Wang Meng was also fascinated for a while, and then spit out a sentence: "This mutton is delicious! By the way, Brother Yuan, a few days ago, there were two or three waves of local chickens, 2 yuan and 5 pieces. It is said that they will buy them back and start a chicken farm."

"Oh? Where is it?"

"North Township."

"That's pretty far."

Wang Yuan knows that this kind of thing is unavoidable. If the countryside wants to make more money, it must either grow crops with high economic value, or raise various poultry or livestock.

Li Yan brought a small pot of pumpkin pimple soup, and said with a frown: "Xiao Yuan, the price of eggs will drop rapidly after the Chinese New Year, the price of eggs will drop, and the price of feed will rise, so we will earn even less money." .”

Wang Yuan smiled and said: "Don't think too much about it, let's count how much money the chicken farm makes. Take a step back and say that even if the chicken farm is ruined, our family will not be short of money."

Li Yan was right after thinking about it, and then went to serve dumplings again.

……

Wang Yuan has been resting leisurely at home for 5-6 days. He takes his dog for a walk up the mountain every day. He has enough bullets. He can shoot once if he wants to, and shoot twice if he wants to.

Watch TV, sleep, read newspapers, cook delicious food every day, life is relaxed and comfortable.

After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the children started school one after another, and there was not so much time to help pick up eggs to earn pocket money.

He simply hired Uncle Wei's daughter-in-law, also for 3 yuan a day, and the couple are fully capable of doing all the work on the chicken farm.

Only in this way, the days when Uncle Wei drank drunk alone and listened to ditties every day would no longer exist.

Of course, my wife Li Yan felt a little sorry.

Because she felt that Liu Weiguo and his wife did all the work of pulling fodder, feeding chickens, hoeing chicken manure, picking eggs, repairing chicken coops, selling eggs, etc., which was equivalent to opening a chicken farm by themselves.

But the couple together could only get 6 yuan a day, and the remaining dozens of yuan went into the pockets of Wang Yuan and his wife, which made Li Yan feel as if she had stolen other people's money.

Wang Yuan naturally refuted her thoughts seriously:
"Swallow, your idea is so wrong. We earn a lot, but we still take the risk. Regardless of whether the chicken farm loses money or not, we have to give them 6 yuan a day, even if our family loses money. The end of the drop also has to give money to others.

Uncle Wei and his wife don't take risks, and they can keep their income in droughts and floods. Isn't that a benefit? "

"What you said... makes sense." Li Yan laughed instantly.

……

March 1988, 3 in the Gregorian calendar, Tuesday.

Wang Yuan went to the township government early in the morning with the old village head, several village officials, second uncle, third uncle, Liu Weiguo, Zhuzi and others, and was busy with the establishment of "China's Most Beautiful Frontier Cooperative".

The reason why the second uncle, third uncle and others are called is because Wang Yuan designated them as "village representatives".

He is very bad, he understands that the township will not come to investigate this kind of thing, and just go through the procedure quickly to avoid complications.

After completing the procedures in the township, I went to the relevant departments in the county to get the official seal and some certificates. Of course, the official registered name of the cooperative is "Huaxia's Most Beautiful Frontier Company", without the word "cooperative". .

It sounds like it is a state-owned enterprise.

It took more than a week to complete all the procedures. This is the result of Wang Yuan asking his elder brother Wang Wen for help and asking him to greet his colleagues in relevant departments.

In the end, Wang Yuan treated several cadres in the village to a big meal in a restaurant in the county town, and then the matter was basically over.

Liu Kun, the village accountant, mentioned the matter of shares again, but Wang Yuan ignored him. Liu Kun made himself feel annoyed, but there was nothing he could do, and he shut his mouth tactfully.

He knew that several village cadres, including the old village head, wanted 1000 yuan a year very much, which made him feel very powerless.

In fact, Wang Yuan doesn't mind taking the villagers to get rich together, but he feels that the shares of the cooperative cannot be divided.

If only 1%~5% of the shares are given to the village, there is a high probability that the village will not be willing. Even if they are willing, what should they do when dividends are distributed?If the distribution is based on the real situation, the villagers can immediately calculate how much money he can make.

Wang Yuan estimates conservatively that he can earn more than 10 yuan. If the villagers know this situation, there is a high probability that something will happen.

Jealousy is likely to make some people go crazy, and then they will go online and try to use all kinds of bad tricks, external tricks, and try to get rid of them.

As for giving most of the shares in the cooperative to the village—this idea was also directly discarded by Wang Yuan. He didn't want to raise a group of fathers, and it would be uncomfortable for him to become a part-time worker in the end.

Now he feels good like this, and the people in the village don't know how much money he makes.

Even when he cried and said that he lost money by starting a cooperative, maybe some people would choose to believe his lies in order to find inner balance, and that would be fine.

This morning.

The snow melted and everything recovered, but the sky was gloomy as if it was going to rain.

Wang Yuan rode his motorcycle to the city directly after breakfast, and he was going to call the gang of brothers to help the cooperative to do something.
