Chapter 62 Good intentions pay off
It took Li Long and Halimu two trips to move everything into the house.
The pile is almost full.
"Harimu, there is still some here that you can share with Yushanjiang. This was bought with the money from the two pieces of jade. Of course, it is part of the money." Li Long explained.
Looking at so many things, Harimu’s family was shocked.
Harimu relayed the words to his family, and they were even more shocked. They did not expect that the stones picked up in the ditch could be exchanged for so many things!
Li Long received a warm reception - before he had time to give fruit candies to the two children, Nathan and his brother had already pushed all the stone to him.
Obviously, they are expressing their gratitude in their own way.
Li Long said with a smile:
“It’s no use, no use, by the way, treat you to some candy.”
Large handfuls of fruit candies were piled on the wooden bed. Nathan looked at Harimu and saw Harimu nodding, then smiled and picked up a candy. However, after peeling off the candy wrapper, he turned around and stuffed it into the old woman's mouth. .
The old lady smiled from ear to ear.
Halimu’s wife looked at the rice and noodles excitedly, and she couldn’t finish them until the snow melted!
And those tea leaves and salt are enough for them to last for several years!
I really didn’t expect that that stone would be exchanged for so many things!
Harimu was also very excited. At this time, the old woman suddenly said something to Harimu. Harimu was silent for a moment, climbed up on the wooden kang, and pulled out a wooden box from behind the folded blanket inside.
He opened the box on the wooden kang and took out something wrapped in cloth.
This thing is more than a foot long and looks like a stick, but it's thick and thin, so it's hard to tell what it is.
Halimu handed the thing to his mother, and the old lady handed it to Li Long.
Li Long was a little confused.
Harimu said:
"My mother said, I'll give this to you, thank you."
Li Long opened the cloth bag curiously.
It’s furry, weighs one kilogram, and has bifurcations—this thing is deer antler!
Dried red deer antler!
Li Long hurriedly handed it back, waved his hand and said:
"I can't, I can't, I can only sell this for a lot of money?"
Li Long and Chen Hongjun asked about the price of deer antler now. The price is not high, the dry product costs more than ten yuan per 100 grams, while this one only costs one or two hundred yuan.
The money for a bike!
"I gave it to you," Harimu stuffed the velvet antler back into Li Long's hand, "You brought us so many things..."
"But those things were bought with the money from the jade..."
"Without you, the jade would not be sold for money. There were originally two deer antlers. Last year, our family was short of food, so we took one. They exchanged food at the foot of the mountain and only got a small bag——"
Halimu gestured, and Li Long saw that what they exchanged was less than half of the rice he brought.
But this deer antler sells for more than 100 yuan at the buying station. Even if the other party earns half of it, it is still 70 to 80 yuan. If you buy rice, you will buy more than you do, right?
He plans to bring some more rice and noodles on his next trip. Because the piece of jade in Yushanjiang was also exchanged for a lot of money.
Even if you take away what you earn, you can still send them a lot of food.
Li Long finally accepted the deer antler and two pieces of jade. However, the quality of these two pieces is not that good, even Harimu can tell.
One piece is a palm-sized irregular-shaped seed material, weighing three to four kilograms, with a gray-black stone skin and some light spots in the jade.
The other piece is larger, like a large green mango, weighing five or six kilograms. The jade quality looks good, but there are also a lot of sesame spots inside. This is a typical characteristic of Mahe Jasper.
Harimu said:
"We also picked up these two pieces. They are not as beautiful as the previous ones. You can take them back and play with them."
Okay, just these two pieces of jade, although they are not as good as the previous ones. That piece, but it would probably be sold for at least several thousand yuan in future generations, so they just casually said "play".
Li Long took it away without being polite, and took out dozens of bullets and handed them to Harimu:
"These bullets are for you, and some are for Brother Yushanjiang. I This time after pulling the two wild boars back, I replaced some bullets.”
Seeing so many bullets, Harimu became excited again. He put away the bullets and said excitedly:
"In the past two days, the wounded wolf came to take revenge! Howling nearby every night, We can't sleep well! I'll kill them tonight!"
Li Long said:
"Then let's borrow a gun again and I'll learn how to shoot with you tonight! Wolf."
"Okay!"
After lunch, Harimu took Li Long with him, carrying two small bags of rice and noodles, some tea, salt, and sugar cubes, and went to Yushan River.
There was one more middle-aged woman in the winter nest of Yushanjiang than the last time Li Long saw her.
Li Long guessed that it was Yu Shanjiang's wife. The last time she came here, she had something to do outside.
Seeing that Harimu and Li Long brought so many things, Yushanjiang, who had a somewhat dull expression, showed an unexpected expression.
When he knew that Li Long had exchanged that piece of jade for it, Yu Shanjiang smiled.
And when Li Long took out dozens of bullets and handed them to him, Yushanjiang showed an excited expression on his face!
He lent the gun to Li Long without hesitation, and at the same time took out a piece of jade that was larger than the last time.
The quality of this piece is similar to the last time. The jade is long and strip-shaped, with no impurity spots in the middle and a large piece of blue-gray stone skin.
Li Long hugged it. This piece of jade weighed almost twenty kilograms, and the selling price was definitely not cheap!
He told Yushanjiang:
"Brother Yushanjiang, I will bring you some food when you come here next time. By the way, what else do you need?"
"Sickles, bring a few more sickles, also for cutting Tuman, I need two axes, rope, strong rope..."
Yu Shanjiang was not polite and said several things, and Li Long wrote them down one by one.
Halimu and Yushanjiang talked a few more words, and he said to Li Long:
"There is also a group of wild boars two mountains away from here. If you have time, , you can come and shoot. In addition, Yushanjiang said that there are red deer nearby, and he will leave them for you when he catches them.”
Li Long nodded. The deer's whole body was full of treasures. If there were any, he wouldn't be polite.
After resting here in Yushanjiang for more than half an hour and drinking milk tea, the two of them said goodbye and left. On the way back, Li Long encountered several fallen trees. The two of them worked together to pull the two trees out of the snow, tied them with ropes, and pulled them back to Harimu's winter home.
When he goes back tomorrow, Li Long plans to take some wood back.
There was no light at night, and Harimu's family went to bed early, but Li Long and Harimu had already laid an ambush in the snow near the Dongwozi sheepfold.
Based on the experience last time, Li Long wrapped his fur coat tightly this time and moved his fingers from time to time, waiting for the wolves to appear.
He was a little nervous and a little excited - he had seen a lot of videos in later generations and knew that wolves were very cunning and would fight in an encirclement. He wondered what would happen to the wolf he encountered?
At midnight, a wolf howl came from the distant mountain forest.
They are coming!
