Chapter 43 Lai Gouzi Zhu Erhai


Chapter 43: Lai Gouzi Zhu Erhai

The eagle will be sent away later, so Xiao Tao and his son did not return to their home after tying the eagle.

Yue Feng came back early and prepared food for the eagle in advance. A few people were in the yard, taking turns to practice calling the eagle away. Starting from jumping boxing, they could slowly call the eagle from the stand. The south wall finally came to an end and the eagle was fed a full crop.

At the entrance of the courtyard, a group of children cling to the cracks of the door and watch the excitement outside. Every time the eagle spreads its wings and flies into the hands of the eagle-handle, it will cause some excited shouts from the children.

The Zhang brothers were the last to come back. Brothers Xiaowen and Xiaowu also gained a lot today.

When brothers Xiaowen and Xiaowu finished training the eagles in their hands and called them away, the sky gradually darkened.

The children who were watching the excitement saw that there was no excitement anymore, so they slowly left the show and returned to their homes.

In this era, there are few things to talk about. The story that the Yue family tied up several eagles to go into the mountains to catch chickens was quickly spread to the neighbors through the children's mouths.

In the eyes of the vast majority of villagers, they just regard it as a curiosity, but there are also a few people who realize the benefits.

Zhu Sanhai’s elder brother, Zhu Erhai, is one of them.

Zhu Erhai is 21 years old this year. He dropped out of elementary school before finishing elementary school. Apart from working with his parents during the busy farming season, he has nothing to do during this time. He is either hanging out with a few local scoundrels to watch small cards and making money, or he is thinking about stealing other people's money. Stewed chicken and drank a lot of wine or something.

At this age, all the children from good families are getting married and having children, but the three sons of the Zhu family are living a very difficult life. The second son of Zhu is also a player with a very poor reputation in the village. He is lazy and idle, and even Grandma Li, a family member of the martyrs, has He was bullied, and his temper and temperament were so bad that he was nicknamed Lai Gouzi.

When Zhu Sanhai went home for dinner, he told his brother about Yue Feng's family's falcon training and the catching of many chickens.

Zhu Erhai didn’t think that this thing could be sold in the city, but he thought that if he could train an eagle and go to the mountains to catch some sand-and-half chickens and flying dragons, then wouldn’t it be possible? After eating meat every now and then, his gang of friends will no longer be able to tease him every day.

Living in the villages at the foot of Changbai Mountain, every village has hunters who know how to hunt. Some large villages even have gunners who raise hounds and play with guns.

However, even if hunters running into the mountains are common, hunting in the mountains is still a dangerous thing for most villagers.

Most ordinary people’s understanding of hunting is limited to ordering traps at the foot of the mountain in front of their homes, trying their luck to catch a few jumping cats and pheasants, and being able to carry a shovel and pickaxe into the mountains. Picking a few badgers home is considered a skill.

Hunting is not difficult to master, and it is rare to learn it. Without someone to teach you, ordinary people will never stop hunting and look for animal trails. Even if a trap is set, there is a high probability that it will not be able to trap it. of prey.

Zhu Erhai is just a raw man who doesn't understand this business at all.

Zhu Erhai, who had been pondering at home all night, had breakfast early the next morning and came to Yue Feng's house.

However, Yue Feng and others had already had breakfast and had already gone up the mountain. Zhu Erhai missed the opportunity.

In view of this guy's despicable character, neither Yue Lei nor Meng Yulan wanted to see him. They greeted him with a few vague words in the courtyard, and Zhu Erhai left in a sensible manner.

After leaving the gate of Yue Feng's house, Zhu Erhai returned home. Although he hit a soft nail, he did not intend to give up.

At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Zhu Erhai came to the Xing'an Village Information Center at the village head canteen. There were a lot of old women gathering here to chat, but regardless of his good or bad character, he had all kinds of meat and vegetables. After chatting for a while, time passed quickly.

At around four o'clock, Yue Feng came back from the village with a fully-cropped Big Green Harrier, and Zhu Erhai greeted him from a distance.

"Brother Yue Feng, you're back from the mountain!!!" Yue Feng was slightly startled when he saw Zhu Erhai running over to talk to him, but he quickly figured out what this guy was looking for.

"Ah? Take a walk up the mountain! What's the matter?"

"It's really something. Is it convenient tonight? Come to my house and treat you to dinner. Let's go together. Drink some!”

Zhu Erhai thought that Yue Feng was still the ignorant boy. He didn’t mention the purpose, but wanted to invite Yue Feng to his house for dinner.

"I'm sorry, I don't drink! We don't know each other very well. We don't get reward for nothing. Your food is not that delicious!" Yue Feng didn't save Zhu Erhai's face and refused directly in a stiff tone.

"Look at you, we are all from the same village. I treat you well to a drink, but why are you burying someone else?" Zhu Erhai was a good actor. After listening to this, he deliberately found fault with Yue Feng's words.

"If you have something to do, talk to me. If you have nothing to do, make way for me. I still have work!" Yue Feng has to go to the city to deliver goods. Today is the first day to deliver goods in the evening, so he has no time. Chatting with Zhu Erhai.

"I heard that you have trained many eagles, can you give me one?" Seeing that his roundabout tactics were not working, Zhu Erhai simply got straight to the point!

"I can't give it to you. There are many eagles in the family!" Yue Feng shook his head, walked around Zhu Erhai and left.

"I'll give you money, you can sell me one!"

"As I said, there are many eagles. If you want to go find Li Mingtao, if Xiaotao is willing to sell you, you can discuss it with him! "Yue Feng directly made a move to divert trouble to the east, not wanting to get entangled with Zhu Erhai.

Zhu Erhai didn't dare to play tricks with Xiao Tao. Even though he was a few years older than Xiao Tao, Xiao Tao was so energetic that he really couldn't tolerate him.

During the autumn harvest last year, the two of them had a quarrel over tractor work, and the taller Xiao Tao was held down and beaten.

Having said that, Zhu Erhai no longer wanted to continue to pester, and watched Yue Feng leave.

When Yue Feng returned home, he counted and sorted out all the game he had saved at home. He then pulled up the sledge and left the village on a small path. After a half-circle, he got on the main road out of the village and went straight to the second canteen.

The game we sent today was the harvest of five people yesterday. In addition to the greyhound that Yue Feng caught during the day, Xiao Tao and the Zhang brothers have not returned yet.

The total number of chickens delivered today has exceeded the eighty mark. After Yue Feng handed over all the game quantities, he and Niu Fusheng took back the greyhound skins.

Should I say it, chef Niu Fusheng’s skin-peeling skills are quite good. A complete piece of greyhound skin is cut open from the lower jaw, whether it is the head, face, limbs, or the tail, which is the most difficult to trim. , all cleaned up neatly.

Today's goods sold for more than 80 yuan. Yue Feng stuffed the greyhound skin into his backpack, then pulled the empty sledge and hurried home.

Greyhound skins that have not yet been dried will not be accepted by purchasing centers. You have to go home, stretch them with simple wooden strips, and put them in a cool place to dry before selling them.

As the hunting proficiency of the falcons in the hands of the five-person falconry team has improved, the number of prey brought home every day has also steadily increased. Yue Feng has spent most of the past two days catching ash in the red pine forest. Dogs, but the number of chicks was not affected.

At this time, even if Yue Feng lay on the kang every day and did not go into the mountains, the fixed income sharing was very objective, but he was not willing to rest for a day, and he was slowly thinking about the money at his disposal. Enough time to buy a bicycle.

On the other end, Zhu Erhai, who hit a wall at Yue Feng, did not give up. He continued to return to the intelligence station and waited for Li Mingtao to come back from the mountain.
