Chapter 14 Yue Feng’s development plan
“Eight cents a pound, no votes!”
“Is there any fatter one?” Yue Feng glanced at the sledge beside him and asked.
“There are only so many left, the waist and pork belly are all sold out! This is more than 200 kilograms of sow pork, very fragrant!”
“They are all thin. If I give you two kilograms, can you count it as one piece of five elements?" Yue Feng asked.
The other party also knew that lean meat was not easy to sell. When he heard that Yue Feng was buying two kilograms at a time, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll sell it to you!" Turn around and leave.
After cutting the meat, Yue Feng strolled to another stall selling grain.
This guy has two small bags in front of him, one bag is for corn flour and the other bag is for white flour. He came here from Yuefeng to set up a stall, but it seems that it hasn’t opened yet.
“Hey, buddy! How much does a pound of white flour cost?”
"No tickets, only two cents per catty!"
Yue Feng was shocked when he heard the price.
No wonder it can't be sold. With the current market price, if you buy it with a ticket, it's only about 17 cents in the state-owned grain and oil store, which is 4 cents per pound. In the eyes of ordinary people, it's not a small amount of money.
"Two cents per catty, give me ten catties, can you sell it?" Yue Feng did not write any ink, directly stating that he was a big customer.
“Okay! Seeing how much you want, I’ll give you two cents!”
After taking out the money to pay, Yue Feng gave away a small pocket for nothing.
After buying the noodles and meat, Yue Feng had no nostalgia, put his pockets on his back, turned around and strode away towards home.
I didn’t have breakfast in the morning, and my stomach was already growling with hunger. However, when Yue Feng passed by the State-owned Hotel, he didn’t want to go in and buy a steamed bun to eat. A meat bun cost 30 cents, so he could afford it. But with these few dollars in his pocket, Yue Feng still doesn't have the confidence.
Carrying the dough bag, I walked back home step by step. When I reached the end of the village, it was dawn, which was about six o'clock.
Last night, Yue Feng had already made arrangements with his family. When Yue Feng came home carrying the meat and carrying his face, his father was sitting on a horse in the middle of the courtyard, helping Yue Feng to fly the eagle.
Even if the eagle caught in the wild is trained, it must be lifted every day, especially in the morning. If the eagle is too lazy to get up late, the eagle is prone to rebellious behavior. When it is let go when it is taken out to work, it may rush straight away. Yunxiao said goodbye and it was too late to shake hands.
"Dad! I'm back!" Yue Feng opened the courtyard door and said hello.
“Sold?”
“Yes! One sand-and-half chicken with seven feathers and one piece of flying dragon were rounded up by two people! For the money sold, I cut some meat and added I bought ten pounds of white flour! The injury on your leg hasn’t healed yet, but you’re getting better with nutrition,” Yue Feng said proudly.
"Okay! My second son has grown up and I know I feel sorry for your dad!!" His father Yue Lei said with emotion as he looked at the meat and white noodles his son brought back.
"Then I'll go into the house first!" Yue Feng entered the house carrying the dough bag. The mother on the stove was cooking polenta. She was very happy when she saw the pork and white noodles her son brought back. After learning that yesterday's prey sold for five yuan and ninety cents, her enthusiasm suddenly increased.
“I’ll put this meat on the pot later and save it for cooking! Mix the white flour with cornmeal and steam the steamed buns of Erhe noodles. Your little sister likes it!” Mother Meng Yulan After receiving the supplies brought back by my son, I had already figured out what to do.
Yue Feng said: "Mom, since the way to go out with an eagle is open, then we don't have to be so frugal with food in the future! I can earn several yuan just by going out with an eagle. Money, if you catch Feilong, you may earn more! You can make money every day from now on, and our family will eat fine food every day!”
Meng Yulan was a little dissatisfied when she heard her son’s remarks about wasting money. He curled his lips and said: "How about that? I heard in the east room that you got up at around three o'clock. These few dollars are not easy to come by. There are still many places to spend money at home! How can making a little money be so harmful!"
Yue Feng said: "This is not a disaster. If we eat well, my dad's legs will recover sooner! When I save enough money to buy a No. 16 tube, I will go up the mountain with my dad and wander around, and come back with a pig. , I can eat it for a few months! When we save some money, we can raise some hounds for running in the mountains, and we can knock down any blind bears!”
Listen to my son! With lofty ideals, her mother Meng Yulan wiped the sweat from her forehead with her sleeves, and after a long time she said leisurely: "I don't want our family to be rich, I just want the whole family to be safe!"
"Listen to me. Mom, leave half of the meat you brought back for cooking in oil, and let’s make dumplings for the other half! When I’m full, I’ll continue to go up the mountain to watch the eagles. If the harvest is good, I’ll go to the ghost market tomorrow morning!”
"Okay! You earned the money, so I'll listen to you! I'll chop the dumpling fillings for lunch, and our family will eat dumplings in the evening!"
......
After breakfast, it was almost seven o'clock. Yue Feng took his bag again and left the village again with his eagle in his arms.
I got up at three o'clock in the middle of the night and walked back and forth for more than 40 miles on the mountain road. It would be a lie to say that I was not tired, but at this moment, Yue Feng had a belief in his head that could completely change the family's current situation, supporting him to continue moving forward.
Others in the village have no chance to make money by being involved. If you go out with the eagle, you can earn six yuan a day, which is much more cost-effective than earning five cents per centimeter in the production team.
Yesterday Yue Feng succeeded in setting off the eagle by stringing the string, so if he goes out for the siege today, he will have a much wider choice.
The big green kite was set up by his father at dawn. It is very well behaved in Yue Feng's hands. After leaving the village, its eyes came to life. Even if there are two sparrows chirping in the bushes by the road, it will He pushed hard and was very angry.
The eagle was ready, and Yue Feng would definitely not let the kite catch the sparrows. He followed the mountain ridge where he went down yesterday and went up the mountain directly from the foot of the mountain.
It was difficult to catch the sand chicken in the small forest by the river. Yue Feng focused on the flying dragon as his hunting target today.
The period between dawn and the sun just rises in the morning is the time when dragon birds gather in groups to feed. Yue Feng had just entered the mountain and walked less than 500 meters when the familiar zizizi chicken crow came again. Coming.
Using the cover of the tree trunk, Yue Feng slowly closed the distance with the eagle. After getting within twenty meters, Yue Feng decisively released his hand, and the murderous big green kite flew towards the turf. Fly away with the chickens.
With one hit, the scream of the flying dragon bird sounded, and the other lucky ones dispersed in a rush.
Yue Feng followed up quickly, took out the half-racha and half-chicken that he had not eaten yesterday from his backpack and placed it at the feet of the big green harrier, easily replacing the adult male flying dragon bird.
Wrap the prey in socks and stuff it into the backpack, and put a dollar and ten cents into the pocket.
Allowing the big green harrier to peck a few bites of chicken, Yue Feng set up the eagle again, took out the kettle and ordered a sip of water for the eagle, and the battle continued!
In the pine forest in the morning, there were many groups of flying dragons, large and small.
In the next hour or so, Yue Feng climbed up the mountain along the east side of the mountain, close to the hills, until he reached the west side, jumping over rocks and catching five flying dragon birds.
