Chapter 527: Leading Two People into the Mountains (2)
After seeing them off, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.
The captain looked at the three of them and said, "Okay, you guys go back too."
"Today's work is not finished yet, we still have to go to work in the fields," said Zhao Junhao.
"Let's do it tomorrow. It's not an urgent job anyway. We can just finish it tomorrow." said the captain.
None of the three relied on work points to support themselves, so when they heard the team leader say so, they agreed.
"Captain, we'll be leaving first."
"let's go."
Not far from the brigade headquarters, Liu Jingxue saw children playing there. She quickly took out some candy from her bag and gave two to each of them.
After leaving the group of children and seeing that there was no one around, Zhou Mingxuan lowered his voice and asked, "Xiaoxue, are you going to the cowshed tonight?"
“I won’t go over there. You two are going to class, so just tell them the news.
Also, when you decide to go hunting in the mountains, let me know."
Zhou Mingxuan thought for a moment and said, "Why not set it for the afternoon of three days later?
In the morning, we went into the mountains to chop wood for half a day, and then secretly delivered it to the cowshed in the evening. In the afternoon, we went into the mountains to hunt. "
“No problem on my end.
Have you prepared enough firewood for the winter?"
"It has been prepared these days. All the firewood we get next will be sent to the cowshed. We will try to prepare the firewood there by early September."
"They have already prepared some firewood. I have also sent them a lot, and I will send more later. You guys should take it easy and don't get too tired."
"Don't worry, you won't be tired."
Three days passed in a flash.
This morning, Liu Jingxue went to work as usual and received full work points for the day. After work, she went home, cooked a meal, and took a short nap after eating and drinking.
I'm going into the mountains with those two people today. Some tricks can't be used in front of them, and I have to take care of them. It's better to get enough rest.
It was almost time for the appointment with the two men, so Tuanzi woke her up. After taking care of her, Liu Jingxue put on her bow and arrow, took up her axe and set out to meet the two men.
After walking into the mountains for a while and arriving at the agreed meeting place, Liu Jingxue found that Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao were already waiting for her there.
Looking at the sled behind the two men, Liu Jingxue asked, "Who did you borrow this from? Will it not arouse suspicion from others?"
“Don’t worry, this is not borrowed. We saw you using this thing to drag prey that day and it worked very well, so we ordered one from the villagers.
We told others that we were going to use it to carry firewood into the mountains so that we wouldn't have to carry it too much.
This morning, we deliberately used it to haul a lot of firewood. Now that we have shown it to the villagers, no one should think of anything else."
"That's no problem, let's go now."
The three of them walked towards the depths together. Zhao Junhao was not idle either, and asked, "Xiaoxue, do you think we should go deep into the mountains, or just stay on the outskirts?"
“There are too many things in the mountains. If they smell blood, many animals will come over.
You two are not strong enough right now, so you can’t go deep into the mountains. You should just stay outside.”
Zhao Junhao was a little depressed. He was still thinking about going to the mountains to experience some new things.
Seeing his thoughts, Liu Jingxue warned, "Don't do anything rash. Have you forgotten what happened to Zheng Pengcheng? His skills are far superior to the two of you.
After all, he has accumulated more than ten years of hard work, which you cannot catch up with in a short period of time.
He is like that. He hides in the mountains and doesn't dare to provoke any animals. How dare you go hunting in the mountains? Even if you catch an animal, you can't bring it back, and it's hard to even escape."
"Then what do you think, if we practice every day in the future, when can we go into the mountains to have a look and see what we can do?" Zhao Junhao was a little unwilling to give up.
Liu Jingxue promised, "If you practice diligently and concentrate on practicing martial arts during the winter months, by this time next year, you will have a certain ability to protect yourself. Then I will take you into the mountains to have a look."
"Then let's make a deal." Zhao Junhao said excitedly.
"You have to listen carefully. I mean that you must study hard and not be lazy. If you can't meet my requirements, I won't take you in.
You must not go there secretly. I think you don't want to end up like Zheng Pengcheng.
I happened to meet him, otherwise, I'm afraid he would have been left with no trace.
I am not trying to scare you." Liu Jingxue warned again and again.
"Xiaoxue, don't worry, we are not that stupid. We value our lives very much," Zhao Junhao assured.
"Don't worry, Xiaoxue. I will watch him and won't let him do anything wrong."
Not wanting to continue this topic, Liu Jingxue diverted their attention and asked, "What are you two planning to hunt today?"
"Just give the same ones you gave to the soldiers that day."
"What about the quantity?" Liu Jingxue asked.
"We two plan to get more and send some to our family, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters. We want to cheat some money from them and save it as capital for our future business." Zhao Junhao did not hide anything and told Liu Jingxue the truth directly.
When Liu Jingxue heard this, she couldn't help but laugh, "You are not ashamed at all. Not only did you keep it a secret, but you also brazenly said it out loud."
“There are no outsiders here.
Mingxuan and I have the same idea. As for you, Xiaoxue, you will also be our business partner at that time, so there is nothing wrong with talking about it."
"I didn't ask you to cheat me out of money, so you can't blame me for it when the time comes.
I won't admit it even if you blame me." Liu Jingxue said with a smile.
"Don't worry, I won't blame you."
After laughing, Liu Jingxue said, "In that case, why not get five of each kind of wild goats and Meishan deer, and two big wild boars.
I don’t know how many real relatives you two families have, but after these bacon are made and dried, there should be enough for you to share.”
“That’s enough. That’s enough.
As for the goats and deer, we can each get one and a half and send them to them. As for the remaining two, send some to your eldest brother. We have the rest in the cowshed for the autumn harvest.
Two big wild boars are enough."
"Okay, let's just do these this time.
After winter comes, I will go to the mountains to get more meat, and then make some bacon and ask you to send it over so that everyone can have a good New Year.
You are not allowed to go into the deep mountains, but you can't just sit there idle. You will be responsible for transporting the prey, as well as processing and pickling it."
After her spiritual sense discovered the traces of a herd of wild goats, Liu Jingxue changed her direction.
"Come with me. I saw a herd of wild goats before. I think their habitat is nearby. If you look carefully, you should be able to see them."
Leading the two people forward, Liu Jingxue certainly could not lead them in a straight line. She deliberately led them to see something that looked like animal feces, and then moved forward along the feces.
"Xiaoxue, you know a lot," Zhao Junhao praised without hesitation.
This made Liu Jingxue feel a little embarrassed. She knew nothing. She was relying on her spiritual sense to cheat. The feces were just used to fool them and let them know how they were guiding the direction.
"I only know a little bit. The old hunter in our village, Uncle Ji, and his son, Brother Ji Shihu, know much more.
This winter, the production team will definitely organize winter hunting. You can show off your skills and join the hunting team and learn more from them.
I learned this little bit when I was in the hunting team."
"When the time comes, we will definitely join the hunting team and try to learn more."
