The two juicy deer looked at Li Long, looking very timid. The deer themselves were also timid.
The roe deer was not as big as a deer, but it was not that scared. When it saw Li Long and the others approaching, it first watched calmly, and then when Li Long and the others did not move, it moved forward curiously.
Very cute.
"Then I'll take him away." Li Long said with a smile, "Very good, very good, I like it."
"As long as you like it." Harimu smiled, behind him The young man also laughed. They need what Li Long brings, and they also hope that Li Long also needs what he brings.
We had finger meat for lunch, and the sheep were slaughtered just now. When Li Long and his tractor arrived, there were young men over there who started to slaughter the sheep. After cooking it in one pot, eating the finger meat with skin sprouts and salt, Chen Xingbang also felt the original taste.
But it smells so good.
After eating, bundle up the sheep, deer, and roe deer and load them into the car. This tying is also a technical job. It must be tied to prevent them from jumping up, and it must not be tied too tightly to prevent their legs from becoming useless.
"I'll come back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." Li Long said, "If I only need one cart of food, I will unload the food here and go to the cabin. I will stay for a few days and hunt. "
"Okay." Yu Shanjiang said with a smile, "We have to go back to the scene in a few days. I will also inquire about where the prey is in the past two days, and I will tell you later."
The tractor drove out of the mountain again, puffing out black smoke.
Halimu and the others did not watch Li Long until they saw it. The tractor started and left, and they began to divide these things. Time is tight and there is no time to mourn the spring and autumn.
The tractor currently contains two parts, one part is Chen Xingbang’s sheep and fodder, and the other part is the things Harimu and the others packed for Li Long, including seven or eight deer antlers, roe deer antlers, and a plastic bag of jade. Li Long didn't take a closer look. There were two young deer and a young roe deer.
Chen Xingbang had a gut feeling that what Li Long got might be more valuable. If there are one or two pieces of jade of relatively good quality inside, one piece would be enough for Li Long to buy a cart.
But neither Li Long nor Harimu who sent the things cared much about it, which made Chen Xingbang very emotional.
He didn't say it, but he knew it in his heart. This kind of trust and non-careful attitude is the foundation that Li Long and others have laid through many things in the past year.
Originally, Harimu also said that he would bring the remaining pieces of finger meat to Li Long, but Li Long refused. Chen Xingbang may not be clear, but he really knows that the herdsmen in the mountains don’t have much time to eat meat.
Let’s keep it for Harimu and the others.
The tractor drove out of the mountain, and Li Long said to Chen Xingbang who was sitting on the board:
"Brother-in-law, I will send you the sheep first, and then I will go back. Then Can you do it alone?"
"Yes." Chen Xingbang was excited at this time. "Put the sheep into the yard. I will kill one first and try my hand at it tomorrow morning! The rest will be in the yard. I will put some grass and water for them in the space." That’s fine. Don’t worry about this. If you don’t do anything, I won’t see you again!”
With these sheep as a base, Chen Xingbang is confident that he can start a business next.
He has already planned to return to the yard later. After putting the sheep away, he will go to the market to see the price of meat today, and then decide how to sell meat tomorrow. He had gotten all the cases back the day before, including scales and knives. The next step was how a sheep could maximize the money.
When the tractor crossed the Qingshui River, Li Long stopped for a moment and added water and oil. He asked Chen Xingbang to loosen the bonds of the sheep one by one and stretch their blood to prevent their legs from ruining.
Not only sheep, but also deer and roe deer.
They walked and walked like this. When they arrived at Shicheng, the sun was already in the west. Li Long and Chen Xingbang put fifteen sheep into the pen and took out two bundles of grass. Li Long looked at the two fawns and roe deer. I didn't forget to nibble on the grass in the car, so I just pulled two handfuls of grass for them and put them in the car.
"Brother-in-law, I'm back. It's not convenient to contact you. If you need anything, take the shuttle bus to Ma County and go to the Education Bureau to find Xiaoxia, or go directly to the Post and Telecommunications Bureau to call the team." After Chen Xingbang finished speaking, he drove the tractor and left.
Chen Xingbang blocked the door of the vegetable garden, spread grass for the sheep, and got an old basin to put a basin of water in, then locked the door and went to the market.
Start making money tomorrow!
Li Long drove his tractor past the milk tea shop in Keyumu. Seeing that the door was still open, he stopped without turning off the engine. He bought two hot naan buns and planned to take them home to eat.
Nang is so fragrant. Li Long was driving the tractor with one hand and eating a piece of naan from time to time. Before the tractor reached the Mahe Bridge, a piece of naan had already entered his stomach.
Although he still wanted to eat, he thought that the remaining one had to be left for Xiaoxia, so he resisted eating, stepped on the accelerator a little harder, and headed east suddenly.
Before dark, Li Long returned to the compound.
The courtyard door has been completely opened, and Gu Xiaoxia is looking at him with a smile.
Li Long drove the tractor in. After Gu Xiaoxia closed the door, he first handed the naan to the other party, then went to the back bucket and picked up the two deer and the roe deer who were lying on the back.
"Ah? What a cute little deer!" Gu Xiaoxia looked at the cute little deer with big eyes and fell in love with it immediately.
"My friends in the mountains caught it. They knew I was raising this, so they asked me to bring it back." Li Long also took down the grass, but the three little guys smelled something more fragrant, and they kept coming. He went to Gu Xiaoxia's place.
"They want to eat the naan in your hand." Li Long saw the thoughts of the three little animals and said with a smile.
Although we are able to be self-sufficient in food these days, we have developed a habit since childhood that food is a precious thing. Some people cannot eat this pasta, so how can it be fed to animals?
Seeing Gu Xiaoxia hesitate, Li Long smiled and said:
"Feed each one a small bite and let them have a taste."
Gu Xiaoxia then grabbed a small piece of naan and fed it to the fawn.
The deer rushed to eat, and Gu Xiaoxia looked very happy.
Animals are basically cute when they are young, not to mention deer, which are often the protagonist or fairy beast in the stories I heard when I was a child.
"Okay, let them eat grass. You watch first, and I will sort out the things in the cart."
He doesn't plan to move the antlers and other things down. He will take them and sell them directly to Chen Hongjun tomorrow. He can keep the jade and other things and put them away first.
There is no need to exchange these things for money in a short time, so just stay.
Moving down the bag of jade, Li Long found that two of the pieces were of very good quality, while the rest were of average quality. This doesn't matter, after all, it's all seed material, which is better than the mountain material produced by blasting mountains in later generations.
Putting the jade in the spare room as usual, Li Long closed the door and came out. Seeing Gu Xiaoxia still teasing the deer there, he smiled and said:
"I originally thought about putting the deer away tomorrow. Take them to the team. Since you like them so much, let them stay in the yard for the next few days.”
'OK. 'Gu Xiaoxia happily agreed, "The yard is big, so I don't worry about them not having room to move around. By the way, is there enough fodder? If not, I will go look for it nearby at noon."
"Enough. There is some material left for No. 76 in the backyard. The 76th won't be here for a while, and I have some in my tractor." Li Long said with a smile, "Okay, leave them alone, they have to do some exercise after sitting on the tractor for a long time."< br>
The two people entered the house together.
Gu Xiaoxia guessed that Li Long would come back, so she made dinner for two people, plus half a piece of naan.
Li Long was eating the meal cooked by Gu Xiaoxia and remembered where he had seen it before. It seemed that home means that no matter how late you come back, there is a lamp left for you and a bowl of rice warming in the pot. With.
This describes it really well. Isn't that right now?
Seeing how delicious Li Long was eating, Gu Xiaoxia was also very happy. She slowly took the naan, piece by piece, stuffed it into her mouth slowly, and chewed it slowly.
I didn’t eat very quickly, and I didn’t delay it intentionally to prolong this happy moment. After eating, Gu Xiaoxia cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and Li Long cleaned up the tables and chairs. After wiping, he washed the rag, and then He washed his hands and smelled them. There was no greasy kitchen smell on his hands.
Then Li Long looked at Gu Xiaoxia.
Gu Xiaoxia was clearing away the pots, bowls and stove. She seemed to be able to feel Li Long's fiery gaze. She lowered her head and felt her face heat up, and she couldn't help but speed up her movements.
After cleaning up the kitchen, the two of them restrained themselves and walked back to the big room together. After closing the door, Gu Xiaoxia still wanted to find a topic, but Li Long had already hugged her and kissed her.
Now that we are an old married couple, we shouldn’t talk so much about drama.
The two of them understand each other better and better, and experience more different fun.
It was still dark the next day, so Li Long asked Xiaolu to wake him up.
The fawns screamed one after another, and Li Long somehow managed to hear what they meant.
The deer needs water!
Oops, I forgot to give them water yesterday.
Li Long hurriedly climbed up and looked at Gu Xiaoxia beside him. She was still sleeping. She had been busy for most of the night last night and was a little tired.
Li Long put on some clothes, opened the door carefully, and went out to pour water for the deer. The deer drank happily, and from time to time they raised their heads and snorted and snorted. water.
Li Long looked at the time and saw that it was still more than an hour before he usually got up. Although he wanted to get in bed and hug Gu Xiaoxia and continue sleeping for a while, he gave up the plan. After washing, he went to the kitchen and started cooking.
Halfway through, Gu Xiaoxia opened the door and came out. After seeing Li Long, she came over and hugged his waist, and asked softly:
"Why did you get up so early?"
“Our deer has become a spirit. No water was given, so I got up when I was thirsty and shouted at the door."
"I didn't even hear it." Gu Xiaoxia leaned her head behind Li Long, "Okay, you go and sleep some more. , let me cook.”
"I can't sleep, let's do it together."
Then do it together.
After breakfast, Gu Xiaoxia went to work, while Li Long took the antlers to the purchasing station.
Chen Hongjun was basking in the sun in the yard when he saw Li Long driving a tractor and said with a smile:
"Comrade Xiao Li, you have changed your shotgun for a cannon. What good things have you brought this time?" ”
"Nothing good, just deer antlers. I went to the mountains yesterday, and my friends asked me to sell the antlers they picked up." Li Long turned off the engine and took the antlers out of the car.
"Yes, it seems that most of them were newly shed this year. Your friends in the mountains are quite powerful." Chen Hongjun glanced at it and said:
"There are also deer antlers in the back. Bring it over. Now the medicinal material company is also accepting it. Our task is more complicated than before. "It's more difficult to complete."
"No problem." Li Long thought that the deer at home had grown antler, and said:
"I have a deer at home that has grown velvet this year." It’s not big yet. I’ll cut it off and bring it to you.”
"Okay. You already have an industry, and you can cut deer antlers yourself." Chen Hongjun sighed. He had watched Li Long's success step by step this year. Hey, it's so magical.
Of the antlers Li Long brought over, six were first-grade and one was second-grade. Now the price of the antlers has increased a bit. Six of them weighed more than 20 kilograms and sold for more than 200 yuan.
Li Long signed to take the money, chatted with Chen Hongjun for a while, and then drove the tractor to collect grain.
The stall owner from yesterday was still in the market, and he was a little surprised to see Li Long driving his tractor straight towards him.
So much food will be digested in just one day?
"You still buy it?"
"Then do you have any? If so, I will naturally buy it."
"Yes, how could it not be? Is there still as much as yesterday?"
>
"Well, the same amount, the same price, right?"
"No problem, let's go." The stall owner was very happy. The food that could be sold out in the past two months was all sold out in one day. Got it!
So cool!
After pulling another cart of grain, Li Long went to the department store to buy some daily necessities. He also went to the oil depot to buy some diesel before driving the tractor toward the mountains.
This time they have to stay for at least a few days, so Li Long not only prepared things for Harimu and the others, but also prepared a lot of things for himself.
The supplies in the wooden house were basically empty. Li Long had to live in the past, so he had to at least ensure that he could live there.
The tractor is running on the road to the mountains again.
When the tractor drove to Harimu's winter home, Li Long found that there was a little more water in the stream than yesterday. He didn't know whether it was raining in the mountains or whether the snow was melting faster.
It should be snowmelt floods that are coming soon, right?
Halimu and his wife are here, but Yushanjiang and the others are not. Hearing the sound of the tractor, Harimu and his wife came out, greeted Li Long with a smile, and then moved down to move things.
“Let’s go after dinner.” Harimu and Li Long said.
“No, give me two of your naan dishes, and I’ll go to the wooden house to clean up first.” Li Long waved his hand, “I haven’t been there for a long time, let’s see how it is there.”
Harimu smiled and said:
"Don't worry, it will definitely be fine. Yesterday's meat is still there. Eat some before you go. There's no rush."
Li Long didn't refuse anymore. I drank milk tea with Harimu and his wife, gnawed on sheep bones, and ate dry naan. He felt like he was very adaptable to this kind of life.
After eating and saying goodbye to Harimu, Li Long drove the tractor and turned toward the wooden house.
The road in the mountains is a bit narrow, the carriage is OK, but the tractor has some problems. In the past, trucks could drive through another route. Li Long planned to take a shortcut. Although it was a bit difficult to walk, the distance was closer.
When they arrived at the wooden house, Li Long understood why Harimu said it was okay.
A shed has been built with wood next to the wooden house. He thought it was Harry Mu Yushanjiang and the others who did it. Li Long remembered that Yushanjiang said that there was a need for a shed here to put the carriage, but he didn't expect that they built one later.
But it’s superfluous to calculate. After all, I drive a tractor and won’t need this shed for a while.
But no matter what, I am very grateful to them.
Driving the tractor to the wooden house and stopping, Li Long found that the wooden floor had been cleaned, and there was a lot of firewood and grass piled in the wooden shed, which were also newly prepared.
Li Long got off the tractor, opened the door of the wooden house with the key, and smelled a smell of moisture. This house has not been inhabited for a long time. Although spring has begun to bloom outside, the inside is not breathable and it has not caught up with the spring time.
Li Long simply opened the doors of both rooms and peeled off the window paper to allow for good ventilation. The stove was set up to dry out the moisture in the house, and the bedding and other items were taken out to dry in the sun, and then some supplies from the tractor were put in.
There are rice and noodles, as well as steamed buns and steamed buns, which are intended to be eaten temporarily. There are some dried vegetables, red tofu, condiments and so on.
The stove was lit, and Li Long went to the spring to check again. The water flow was normal. He fetched water, boiled the water on the stove, then laid out towels and began to wipe the house.
After cleaning up the house, the sun was already setting, and he went to the nearby grassland to pick wild vegetables.
Now the wild mushrooms have come out, but the quantity is relatively small. He wandered around for more than an hour and picked more than a kilogram of wild mushrooms. He also got a bunch of wild vegetables, such as dandelions, plantains, etc., which he planned to boil in water and cook for cold dressing.
After eating meat at noon, the meal in the evening will be more refreshing. I made steamed buns, cooked porridge, and then mixed it with cold dishes. It was very refreshing.
Wild vegetables inevitably have a bit of a bitter taste, which may be objectionable to ordinary young people. But Li Long didn't mind it. With his experience in the previous life, he knew that these wild vegetables could clear the heart, reduce fire, nourish the liver and diuresis, and they were all good things.
At this time, the weather is still cool at night and the mosquitoes have not come up, so it is actually the best time.
After eating, Li Long got up slowly and went to the spring to wash the dishes and chopsticks. He poured out the remaining wild vegetables and put the steamed buns and porridge in the small room before drying them on wires. The bedding was carried back into the house and spread on the wooden kang. There will be no moisture when you fall asleep at night.
In fact, let alone this time, even in two months, the nights in the mountains will still be quite cold. The stove was set up in the house, and although it had been baking for a long time, the temperature inevitably dropped as night fell, and it was a bit cold outside.
Li Long took the tractor's crank handle into the house, then closed the door, buckled it, and went to press the stove, then took off his clothes and got ready for bed.
I have to get up early tomorrow to see if there are any prey, so I have to go to bed early now.
After a tiring day, Li Long fell asleep quickly, and snoring sounded from the bed.
Occasionally animals passed by outside, but they didn't make any noise and didn't disturb Li Long.
In his sleep, Li Long killed a tiger with a gun.
Laughed him awake. (End of this chapter)
