hunting in 1986

Dark clouds rolled in and it was still raining heavily.

Lakshin, who had gone to the sheepfold, came back not long after, and said while wiping the rainwater from his head with a gray cloth:
"There are 1023 sheep in the sheepfold. I counted it three times, and I can't be wrong."

Lakshin raised his head and took a careful look at Old Su He. The latter was smoking a cigarette and was dying of distress. There were 1026 sheep before, and a sudden heavy rain lost three sheep.

There is no way to be sad, after all, the sheep has run away.

The thunder rolled and the lightning exploded. After eating and getting old for a while, everyone went back to their yurts.

After returning to the yurt, Li Yan took a candle and found some thick clothes from the bag: "I'm afraid it will rain heavily to cool down. Fortunately, I brought some thick clothes. I'll put them on when I get up early tomorrow."

"Sister-in-law, do you have mine?"

The little girl was always so carefree, she hugged the cat and came to Li Yan's side, the big white cat broke free from the little girl's embrace and climbed onto Li Yan's lap.

"Yes, I brought a sweater of yours."

The candlelight was flickering, Li Yan's face became more and more soft under the reflection of the dim yellow light, she brushed her hair by her ears and looked at Wang Yuandao:
"Today is really frightening. I can't see any of you in such heavy rain. My heart is pounding... You said that if you can't come back..."

At that time, Li Yan was really scared. In bad weather, people are really too fragile to face nature. It is not uncommon for a person to die.

"It's all right, I'll pay more attention in the future." Wang Yuan reached out and hugged Li Yan, the little girl turned her head away in embarrassment, and Li Ping blushed a little when she thought of what happened the night before.

After laying out the bedding and blowing out the candles, several people also got into bed to sleep.

The big white cat was lying next to the pillow with its paws in its mouth, purring and snoring. The sound was intertwined with the sound of thunder and rain outside. She should be full and her voice was really thick.

Sleeping in rainy weather is really cool.

Hearing the sound of rain outside, Wang Yuan was slowly falling asleep, but at this moment, he suddenly felt Li Yan on the right put his hand into his quilt, and slowly fell down...

Wang Yuan was not polite either, he held her in his arms and kissed her directly on the mouth.

……

Maybe it was because they went to bed too late last night, Wang Yuan and Li Yan obviously got up much later, but when it was nearly 7 o'clock in the morning, a gunshot suddenly rang out.

"Bang~"

"what happened!?"

Scared, Wang Yuan grinned, and immediately turned over and got up. The rain stopped outside, and there were faint voices, but he couldn't make out what he was saying.

Li Yan, Li Ping and the little girl were also taken aback.

"Is something wrong?"

"Why is there a gunshot?"

"Don't worry, you guys put on your clothes first, I'll go out and have a look." Wang Yuan put on his clothes, walked out of the yurt with a rifle in his hand.

The sun had just come out, and a large red disc was hanging in the eastern sky. The air was cold and humid, and there were drops of water hanging on the green grass on the ground.

Mrs. Uzhina was wearing a gorgeous Mongolian dress and was preparing to cook. Old Suhe and Lakshin were busy in the sheep pen and cattle pen, seeming to be feeding the animals.

Just as Wang Yuan was about to ask what happened, there was another shot from the south.

"Bang~"

There is no shelter on the grassland, and the sound of gunfire can travel far.

Old Su He came out from the sheepfold at this time, patted the forage on his body and said: "Little Su He rode a horse to the south to look for sheep. Maybe he saw a wild rabbit. It's okay. son."

Wang Yuan nodded. When the rain stopped, he would naturally go to look for the lost sheep.

He moved his arms a few times, and walked over to help Mrs. Uzhina cook. When the milk tea was almost ready, da da da~ Xiao Suhe came back from the south on a horse.

The one with the big grin was so happy, Wang Yuan and the others looked at him with a smile, knowing that something good must happen.

really.

Xiao Suhe shouted excitedly: "Abu, Eji, look what I brought back!"

Riding a horse to the front, thump~ Xiao Suhe threw a dead wolf to the ground. The huge wolf corpse was more than one meter long, with blue-black hair, and a big mouth with sharp fangs. It might be able to kill a child I cried.

But now such a big guy is dead.

One shot hit the stomach, the other shot hit the head, and the blood flowed out, dyeing the small pieces of grass red.

Xiao Su turned over and got off the horse neatly, with a dirty little lamb under her elbow:
"Not only did I kill a wolf, I also found a sheep. Look, it was this little guy who was almost eaten by wolves. I saved her."

The little lamb is only over a month old, its hair is a little curly, and its body is dirty and covered with mud. Some of the mud rubbed on Xiao Suhe's body.

Lao Suhe and the others were also very happy to find a sheep.

After breakfast cooked with groundhog meat, Wang Yuan, Li Yan, Li Ping, Xiao Suhe, Tuya and others rode horses to the grassland to look for sheep.

Wang Yuan, Li Yan, and Li Ping went all the way.

Xiao Suhe and his wife Tuya are together.

When they came back at 11 am, Wang Yuan and his party recovered 4 sheep, and Xiao Su and his wife even recovered 12 sheep.

The three of Wang Yuan and the others returned to the camp first, and when they saw Xiao Su and his wife driving a flock of sheep back, everyone was stunned.

Old Su He was very happy, but he still asked: "Where did you find so many sheep? Our family didn't lose so many sheep."

"The other pastures should be lost. When it rained heavily yesterday, many people were herding sheep."

Xiao Suhe was very happy, it was really a waste of picking up so many sheep.

Mrs. Uzhina is kind. She thinks it is very difficult for others to raise the sheep so big, and she should return the sheep to others.

"Why pay it back? I don't know who it belongs to. Who should I give it to? Let's talk about it when someone finds it." Old Su He asked Xiao Su He to drive all the sheep back to the sheep pen, yelling to pick a fat one to kill. Yes, make it into a roast lamb and eat it at noon.

Near noon.

While everyone was chatting and cooking, a huge eagle flew from the south.

The eagle flew very low, its eyes were sharp, and the feathers on its body could be seen very clearly with its wide spread wings.

"呖~"

The sound was very penetrating, and the big white cat, which was crooked beside Wang Yuan, was startled for an instant, its hair puffed up, whoosh~ went back into the yurt, and hid at the door of the yurt to observe the eagle secretly.

The dogs yelled at the eagle in the sky, "Wow, woof, woof~" especially the dogs with uneven foreheads, eager to jump up and catch the eagle.

Xiao Suhe said: "It's Uncle Ba Gen's eagle, it should be Uncle Ba Gen coming."

really.

Soon a modified motorcycle appeared in the south, chug chug~ there were some gray cloth bags on the gray surface of the motorcycle, and a big fat man sat on it, and the sound of the pressed motorcycle changed.

The big fat man was wearing a gray Mongolian robe and had a beard. He greeted him with a big smile from a distance: "Hey, Brother Su He is here!"

"呖~"

The eagle circling in the sky landed on the right shoulder of "Bagen". There was a cowhide shoulder pad on the latter's shoulder, and the sharp eagle claws were firmly grasped on it.

Hawkeye stared at the big white cat with malicious intentions, and the scared big white cat shrank back into the yurt again.

Old Su He greeted him with a big smile, and Wang Yuan and the others followed. "Ba Gen" looked about 60 years old, and his height of about 1.8 meters is not tall among Mongolians. His loud laughter seemed very bright.

Wang Yuan thought he was looking for sheep, but it wasn't. He didn't know where he heard the news that Wang Yuan was buying sheep at a high price, so he came to have a look.

Almost every household of the herdsmen raises sheep.

There are as many as a thousand sheep, and as few as dozens. Many sheep are ready to be slaughtered, but they cannot be sold for any price.

The reason for the low price is that besides the difficulty in transportation, there are also sheep dealers who deliberately lower the price. Most of the herdsmen are honest, and they are not very good at talking.

The herdsmen also understand that they are stupid and suffer a lot, but it is difficult to change the status quo.

At noon, everyone chatted while eating the mutton. Ba Gen talked about his experience of boiling the eagle, which made Wang Yuan amazed.

Wang Yuan reached out and touched Ying's head, the hair was quite soft, brush~ Eagle turned his head and stared at him, as if he was going to peck him.

"By the way, the two wild geese I brought are roasted, right?" Old Bagen sat there, like a mountain of meat, eating meat and drinking, looking very bold.

"It's ready to eat."

Mrs. Uzhina brought up two roasted geese, tore them apart, and distributed pieces of geese meat to everyone.

Remove hair and viscera, put seasoning on the skin and bake it directly to brown the outer skin, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The wild goose meat not only has its own tender taste, but also has the aroma of chili, cumin, and pepper powder.

Chewing the delicious wild goose meat, I instantly feel that life is extremely happy.

Wang Yuan feels that meat is really abundant in this era, allowing ordinary people to hunt and kill wild animals and use wild animal resources.

If in later generations, even if the wild animals were dead and rotten, ordinary people wouldn't even think about rectifying them. Maybe only powerful people could secretly rectify them.

But in fact, many people also think that deer, robes, bears, pheasants, wild boars, etc. are not nobler than fish in the river. When the number is small, hunting can be prohibited, but when the number is large, you can hunt some - after all, areas with many wild animals , most of them are relatively poor.

Instead of letting some wild animals die in vain, rotting in the mountains and forests, and not worth a penny, it is better to sell them for money, subsidize the local finances, and give more money to the local people affected by the disaster.

Therefore, officials in many places are also doing it secretly, but they are very careful, so there are many hunting grounds in Huaxia, almost every province has them, but they are not well-known and they are very low-key.

In August 2006, the State Forestry Administration made a high-profile announcement, holding a public press conference saying that it would develop wildlife resources and publicly auction hunting rights for wild animals.

In the end, the State Forestry Administration was almost sprayed to death by countless saliva stars... It seems that no one dares to mention this matter again.

Although I don’t mention it, I still do what I need to do. The hunting of wild animals has been going on and has never stopped, but it’s just that I have no chance with many ordinary people.

"Is wild goose meat delicious? I still have a few at home. I'll make it when I have time."

"Uncle Ba Gen, how did you catch the wild goose?" Wang Yuan asked curiously.

"Hey, you're asking the right person!" Old Bagen was beaming with pride, his eyebrows and eyes full of pride:
"There are many ways to catch wild geese, but trapping is the best..."

After the meal, they got to know each other well, and then Old Bagen talked about selling the sheep to Wang Yuan.

"Uncle Bagen, how many sheep do you want to sell?"

"What price... can I get for this? To be honest, it's not just me, I also know many people who want to sell sheep."

Old Bagen lit the dry tobacco and smoked it. He actually wanted to see what price Wang Yuan could offer. If the price was high, he would sell more, and if the price was low, he would sell less.

Wang Yuan handed a wild goose bone to the big white cat next to him, muttering slightly:
"It's 1.1 yuan a catty. It's 1.1 yuan regardless of whether it's old or young. How about it?"

The general market price is less than 1 yuan/catties. The reason why Wang Yuan is willing to pay a high price is because he wants to buy more mutton. Although it is only in the early 90s, there are already many rich people in the city, and there is no need to worry about selling mutton.

Of course, he gave Xiao Suhe a higher price, which was completely different from his own ranch.

"1.1 yuan per catty? Hey~ Can it be higher?"

On the surface, Lao Bagen is careless, but he is serious. Although he is quite satisfied with the price of 1.1 yuan/catties, he still wants to ask for more.

Wang Yuan smiled and shook his head:
"Uncle Ba Gen, let me tell you the truth. The price of 1.1 yuan a catty is not low, and you can't let me lose money? This price is more than 1 cents more than the market price, which is really high."

"Okay, then follow what you said." Old Bagen laughed instantly, and after drinking a bowl of wine with Wang Yuan, he asked Wang Yuan how many sheep he could ask for at most.

Wang Yuan's answer is that there is no upper limit, the more the better.

"The more the better!? If you can eat [-] sheep?"

Old Bagen felt that he was going to get to know Wang Yuan again, and his eyes were full of shock. If Xiao Suhe hadn't talked to him about Wang Yuan's situation in advance, he might have thought Wang Yuan was a liar.

In the 90s, business became more and more prosperous, and there were more and more scammers. Many people were honest and easy to cheat, and many scammers got rich.

"Eat it."

Wang Yuan smiled faintly and nodded. He really wanted to say that a hundred thousand sheep could be eaten, but after thinking about it, he felt that there was no need to pretend.

Sake red noodles, gold moves the heart.

The grassland in this era is very chaotic, this is the frontier land, and you can see the scenery of Lao Su's side to the west.

If it is too rich, it is possible to be blacked out. After all, he is an outsider, not a native of the grassland.

Old Bagen's heart slowly relaxed, and then he became excited—if there were [-] sheep, how much money would he get from the commission?If I make money this time, I'm afraid I can live well in three to five years.

Seeing that Uzhina cleaned up the wolf, Old Bagen originally wanted to stay and eat "red stewed wolf meat", but in the end, the desire to make money overwhelmed the desire for delicious food, and he directly rode a broken motorcycle. left.

呖~
The eagle also flew away with the old Bagen, and the car and the eagle quickly disappeared into the distance.
