Chapter 86 I really want to taste that taste again (Father, please make the first order!)
The fur of this takin is golden and highly waterproof, keeping warm and insulating.
It is a relatively precious fur, so it naturally needs to be peeled off.
"Peel it off. I'm going to keep it for myself. I'll ask how much it costs when the time comes, and I'll make up for your share." Xu Ye felt that this kind of takin skin was relatively large and should be of high value.
"Brother Ye, you look down on us too much if you are still calculating money with us."
"If we hunt with others, we won't get a share of this takin."
"We already have a big advantage, but you still give us money. How can we have the nerve to go hunting with you in the mountains in the future?" Zhang Xuefeng said seriously.
"Yes, Xuefeng is right. When you said that, I felt very ashamed." Zhang Sanbao said quickly, feeling that his words had been snatched away by Zhang Xuefeng.
"That's right, we didn't contribute. We shared so much, which is actually quite embarrassing." Zhang Ming also hurriedly expressed his position.
Seeing that the three brothers insisted on not wanting it and were sincere, Xu Ye accepted their kindness.
"Sister, let's go around the neighborhood and see where it's suitable to lay traps."
With Zhang Sanbao here, it wouldn't be a big problem to peel off the takin's skin. At most, it would leave a little more meat in the skin.
Therefore, Xu Ye wanted to observe some nearby situations.
Especially where the takin used to drink water, see what animals left traces.
Jiang Ruyue seemed to have misunderstood. A blush suddenly appeared on her face, and her eyes were a little hot looking at Xu Ye, as if she was going to melt Xu Ye.
"Takin usually live in groups. If we can find a herd of takin, we will have money to buy a new gun." Xu Ye said as he walked.
Xu Ye prefers to hunt prey such as takin than tigers and leopards.
"Xu Ye, can this takin be tamed?" Jiang Ruyue couldn't help but ask.
Because takin are much larger than sheep, but smaller than cows, they feel very suitable for working in the fields.
"I guess it won't work. This thing has the same temperament as a sheep. It will attack other animals at every turn and is not afraid of people at all."
"We need to find out the docile ones among their populations, and then breed them to make it possible to gradually domesticate them."
"And they are not as cold-resistant as buffalo and are not suitable. If they were really suitable, our ancestors would have tamed them long ago."
"I don't know if the meat tastes good. If it tastes good, it would be suitable to raise as a pig."
Xu Ye didn't have much confidence in taming animals before, but after improving his animal taming skills, he was somewhat confident.
If you have the chance, you can really get one to study and see if it will feel better after castration.
For now, it would be more reliable to buy some other livestock.
So, Xu Ye continued: "When we have money, we will buy two donkeys first, so that it will be easier to enter the mountains in the future."
Jiang Ruyue's eyes lit up when she heard Xu Ye talking about buying a donkey.
Donkeys are good things. They can pull carts, plows, mills, and rides.
"But can we buy it individually? The team shouldn't allow it, right?" Jiang Ruyue winked at Xu Ye.
Why is Xu Ye's confused look so charming?
I want to hold my chin up.
Jiang Ruyue felt like a nymphomaniac in her heart.
"..."
"It doesn't seem to work. Let's go back and ask Lao Fan first." Xu Ye said helplessly.
His current way of thinking is mainly about future generations, and he often ignores the special circumstances of the moment.
When facing these problems, Xu Ye often feels powerless.
"How about we make a report?" Jiang Ruyue gave Xu Ye an idea.
As the main labor force in the family, Li Dongming is paralyzed in bed, so it makes sense that he needs livestock to help him with work, right?
"Okay, you won't suffer any loss anyway."
"Be careful..." Seeing Jiang Ruyue's foot slipping, Xu Ye quickly stepped forward to support her.
Xu Ye found that his reaction ability had not been improved in vain. He noticed Jiang Ruyue's tendency to slip and took corresponding actions to deal with it.
"If there is water here, it will be very muddy, so be careful." Xu Ye reminded softly. He doesn't like all mud, and he doesn't like this kind of muddy mountain road very much.
If you are not careful, you will fall down and your shoes will get wet and dirty easily.
"Hmm~" Jiang Ruyue felt sweet in her heart. She didn't expect Xu Ye's reaction to be so quick.
If he had fallen just now, the buttocks that Xu Ye had applied medicine to last time would probably have to be re-applied with that very fast-acting ointment.
Thinking of the last time Xu Ye applied medicine to herself, Jiang Ruyue's face felt hot.
In front of Xu Ye, it seemed that he really didn't have any secrets at all, everything was exposed.
But then I thought about it, Xu Ye seemed to be the same, and he couldn't help but reveal a smile on his lips, and leaned towards Xu Ye.
She really wanted to relive what was interrupted yesterday.
Looking up at Xu Ye's full lips, she found them very tempting.
Unfortunately, before taking action, Xu Ye's voice came to his ears.
"Sister, come and see what kind of footprint this is."
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Jiang Ruyue, who had not yet experienced the feeling of suffocation, squatted down and began to observe carefully.
Xu Ye was teaching her about hunting, and she immediately corrected her attitude.
Looking at the big footprints like cat claws, Jiang Ruyue emerged as a figure.
"Is this the paw print of a golden cat or a leopard?" After speaking, she glanced at Xu Ye's handsome face.
"Yes, such a big footprint is at least that of a leopard."
"Of course, it could also be a tiger."
"Anyway, they are cats." Xu Ye said with a smile.
The magnetic sound fascinated Jiang Ruyue, and she felt a tingling sensation in her ears.
"Both leopards and tigers like to hunt takin, but they only kill young ones."
"If you want to hunt adults, you need the cooperation of multiple animals." Xu Ye said while continuing to look for other footprints on the ground.
The reason why takin became the killer of Qinling Mountains in later generations was because the leopards and tigers became extinct, which caused the takin population to get out of control.
If there is a chance in the future, Xu Ye thinks that some protected areas should be designated as soon as possible in the Qinling Mountains so that these precious animals can survive.
At the moment, he is forced to survive, otherwise he would not be willing to hunt these wild animals.
At present, food production is low and the breeding industry is underdeveloped.
With excess grain, it can be used to make feed to feed animals and increase the breeding industry.
He knew that Mr. Yuan was already developing hybrid rice with a high yield, but it had not yet been fully promoted.
They haven't planted it here yet, but I can think of ways to get some and plant it back.
But this also gave Xu Ye a reminder, reminding him of a group of people who would plant crops in the desert in later generations.
They developed a bioadhesive that can improve the loose structure of sand and make it as sticky and water-holding as soil.
The desert is flat enough to use a lot of machinery, which is more cost-effective and more efficient than planting in the mountains.
Once successful, you can obtain countless land that can grow food, and you no longer need to worry about food.
Although he didn't know what kind of adhesive it was, it was enough for Xu Ye to know which direction it was.
If it can succeed, it will be a great event for the benefit of the country and the people.
Moreover, he can also achieve great things.
Thinking about it, he couldn't wait to start studying and researching.
Let’s see if we can come up with another chapter and achieve 10,000 updates on the first day! ! ! Foster fathers, can you give me some encouragement? Can you give me some monthly votes?
