Chapter 180 News about the Wild Boar King
Yue Feng played cards with Hu Xiaoli for a while in his previous life and knew some of his details.
This guy is a master of thousands of games. Every winter, basically all the card tables in the villages around Xing'an Village for dozens of miles are his home court.
While working, Gong Fen of the production team could not earn much money a year, but Hu Xiaoli's wife and children had enough to eat and drink, and their life was quite comfortable, all thanks to his skills at the card table.
Zhou Xiaobao, as mentioned before, the youngest son of Zhou Weiguo, the second eldest son of the Zhou family, is currently an unemployed vagrant.
With such a lineup, Zhang Luo, a veteran oil man, called Wang Musheng, who works as a driver in a forest farm, and then called Zhu Erhai and Zhou Xiaobao. This is interesting.
In a moment, Yue Feng figured out a little bit about it, but he just nodded and said nothing.
"They play with theirs, and my mother can just wait in the house! Let's play with ours in the west room. We have sunflower seeds at home, wait for me to go to the east room to get them!"
Xiaowen When Yue Feng was brought to the West Room, he was busy doing everything, pouring water and so on.
"No need to work! Let's go, Xiaotao, let's go to the east room and take a look too!"
Yue Feng gave Xiaowen a hand, and then stood up from the edge of the Kang where he had just sat down.
"Brother Feng, do you want to touch two too? You can't touch this thing!"
When Xiaowen heard that Yue Feng wanted to go to the east room, his face was slightly startled and he said firmly.
Yue Feng grinned: "Don't worry, I'm not interested in making money! I just want to say hello to Brother Musheng and Brother Li!"
Yue Feng's idea is very simple. Now he takes the hunter with him The team is considered a stronghold in the village. Everyone outside knows that Xiaowen and Xiaowu are following him, so taking care of Xiaowen's family's poker business is naturally equivalent to giving Yue Feng face in disguise.
If Yue Feng had not come to Xiaowen's house today, even if he knew that Wang Musheng and Hu Xiaoli were playing cards here, he would definitely not have deliberately detoured to say hello. But now that they have entered the house, knowing that they are next door, he still needs to be polite.
Making up his mind, Yue Feng opened the curtain with the big eagle in his hand, walked directly through the central kitchen and entered the east room.
As soon as I opened the door, I was hit by the smoke in the room. My dear, the room was so smoky. I knew someone was playing cards, but those who didn't know thought the roof was on fire.
"Hey, Xiaofeng is here! I haven't seen you for a long time. Come on, get on the kang!"
Hu Xiaoli was sitting due east with his back to the east wall, so Yue Feng came in, He saw it at first sight.
"Brother Li, Brother Musheng, I heard from Xiaowen that you guys are playing here. I haven't seen you for a long time. Come over and say hello!" Yue Feng greeted warmly with a smile on his face.
"You guys, I haven't seen you for a few days, how come you are still so polite when you talk! Do you want to play or not?" Wang Musheng nodded to Yue Feng as a greeting, picked up the cigarette from the table, and was about to give it to him. Smoke rises from Yue Feng.
Yue Feng waved his hand: "If you don't smoke, you can just play and leave me alone!"
"Hey, you are holding an eagle! What kind of eagle is this? Can it catch rabbits? ?" Wang Musheng put down his cigarette case and then noticed that Yue Feng was holding an eagle in his hand.
“I can catch it, but I haven’t trained it yet. When I catch the rabbit later, I will set up a trap and let’s have a lot of fun!”
"That's a good relationship. You look like a good eagle! The brothers are waiting to eat your rabbit!"
"No problem!" The square stool was brought over, and instead of sitting on the edge of the Kang, he sat down near the window.
The table where you play cards is also very particular. People who are not playing on the table should try to stay as little as possible under the eyes of others. If you accidentally reveal your trump card or something, it will be difficult to explain.
After briefly greeting Wang Musheng and Hu Xiaoli, Zhu Erhai and Zhou Xiaobao on the other side also looked at Yue Feng.
"Brother Xiaofeng!" Zhou Xiaobao also said hello to Yue Feng.
It is true that the Zhou family and the Yue Feng family had a feud, but the quarrel last time was a quarrel, but it was only at the level of the village. If they didn't take action, it meant they didn't completely break up. Zhou Xiaobao's emotional intelligence was quite high. , so I didn’t say that I wouldn’t talk to Yue Feng.
"Xiaobao and Er'er are here too. How's it going? How much did you win?" Yue Feng grinned and said hello.
“It’s okay, the soles of my feet are stepping on the water! Brother Xiaoli is letting us!” Xiaobao gathered the coins in his hand and said confidently.
The soles of the feet are stepping on the water, which means that there is a small gain and a slight surplus.
Yue Feng nodded and said nothing, but he was a little more certain about his guess.
Hu Xiaoli's usual routine is to let you win a little first, and then when you feel that the heat is almost there, then lose one or two big names. This kind of trick to play with people's hearts is simple and crude, but it has been tried and true.
The card game in the east room, after the brief chaos when Yue Feng entered the room, quickly returned to calm. The gamblers on the table dealt the cards again and again, and then either won or lost, and simply cashed in their gambling funds. After that, continue to the next round.
Yue Feng stayed in the house with his eagle for about ten minutes, then said hello from the east room and came out. On the floor of the outer room, Xiaowen's mother was already there preparing to make lunch.
"Xiao Feng, it's rare for you to come to my aunt's house today. My aunt is in charge of making braised pork for you guys at noon today. Don't leave!" Xiao Wen's mother looked at Yue Feng with soft eyes and said.
"Okay! My aunt's braised pork is a must-have!" Yue Feng agreed without hesitation.
Back on the kang in the west room, Xiao Tao and Xiaowen were sitting on the edge of the kang, eating melon seeds and reading a novel about the Three Kingdoms.
In this day and age, there is really little entertainment at home in the winter. Fortunately, Yue Feng also has a semiconductor radio at home. Xiaowen was reluctant to buy it after asking about the price, but Xiaowu bought a lot of radios. If you read books when you have nothing to do, you can pass the time.
"Xiaowen, the four of them were playing cards at your house before?" Yue Feng asked seemingly casually.
Xiaowen: "No, Brother Li comes here a lot, along with Ma Shuai from the village, Xiaojun and his gang, Zhu Erhai and Xiaobao are here for the first time today!"
"What about Wang Musheng?" Yue Feng asked again.
"Brother Mu Sheng is here for the second time, and serves the table for the first time! He came last time for a walk, stayed for a while, and then left! What's wrong, brother, is there something going on here?"< br>
Xiaowen himself has a relatively stable personality, and when he heard Yue Feng ask about relevant details, he felt a little strange.
"I can't tell, there's something wrong with the taste! Wang Musheng shouldn't be a good gambler on weekdays! Let's keep a closer look, we can do it if it's not Guqiu!" Yue Feng said calmly.
"Brother, what do you mean..." Xiaowen didn't say it clearly, but he had already expressed everything he wanted to express.
Yue Feng nodded: "A few of them get together, either to make money or to cause trouble! Brother Li always has a way of doing things, I guess there are a lot of troubles!"
"Brother, what are you talking about? Why can’t I understand!”
Xiao Tao looked at Yue Feng and then at Xiaowen. He knew what each word meant, but after hearing the whole sentence, he didn’t understand. Now I know what it means.
Yue Feng grinned: "It has nothing to do with us! Just read your little book safely!"
......
While the brothers were in the west room muttering and discussing, the card game in the east room was still going on. The card patterns on the table today were a little weird. Wang Musheng, who was on the table for the first time, seemed to have bad luck with the cards. He could catch big cards every now and then, and he was very lucky with straights, flushes, pairs, etc.
In contrast, Hu Xiaoli, who has the best poker skills, has much worse luck. He has not been able to get a few decent cards in dozens of games in a row.
Similar to Hu Xiaoli, there is Zhu Erhai.
Zhu Erhai was very courageous when playing three-card games. He never looked at the cards in the first few rounds and always blacked out. As a result, after holding on to the cards for a long time, he never hit the cards once.
Just after ten o'clock in the morning, Zhu Erhai came out of the east room, knocked on the door of the west room, and then shouted in a low voice: "Xiaowen, come out!"
Xiaowen got off the edge of the kang and left. House, after two minutes, came back again.
Before Yue Feng asked, Xiaowen said: "He took ten yuan from me, and Brother Li told him the truth! I gave it to him!"
In the card playing field, the hand The room is not spacious at the moment, so it is normal to borrow ten or twenty yuan. As long as someone at the same table vouch for it, most of them can be borrowed.
This money is a breath of fresh air. If you pay it back at the end of the day, acquaintances usually don't charge interest, but if you borrow the money overnight, you will charge interest.
In a situation like theirs where the odds are not big, few people refuse to pay. To top it off, that is, go home, take the money, and then send it back, or bring it with you when you come back the next day.
“Don’t do this kind of work from now on. You only earn the money to support the table. You are not allowed to touch these things like pumping water or putting seals! If you touch them, their nature will change. Do you understand?” Yue Feng reminded him.
"Well, only Brother Li opened his mouth, otherwise he wouldn't be worth ten dollars in my eyes!" Xiaowen nodded.
Originally I thought this was enough, but today’s card game was really mysterious. In less than an hour, Zhu Erhai lost everything again.
This time I asked Xiaowen for money again. Even if Brother Li guaranteed Xiaowen, he would have no money to give. Zhu Erhai was there to tease Xiaowen, but Xiaowen would not let go.
With only five cents, you can lose ten yuan an hour, which is a bit crazy.
Really forced to do nothing, Zhu Erhai blushed and pushed open the door of the west room.
"Brother Feng, can I give you the information about Shanzhu in exchange for some information fees?"
"Huh? What the hell? What information?" Yue Feng heard how much information about Shanzhu I can't hold it anymore.
"Wild Boar King! King Wild Boar that weighs more than 800 kilograms! There are also a large group of wild boars! My dad and uncle found them when they went up the mountain! I'll sell you some, and you give me some money!" Zhu Erhai said that he has a nose and eyes.
Yue Feng suddenly became energetic when he heard the words "King of Wild Boar Over 800 Jin".
In his last life, he vaguely remembered hearing news about the Wild Boar King. He said that he encountered wild boars in the mountains and formed a large group of hundreds of them, occupying a large area.
Later the hunter organized a hunt, but in the end the dog was much disabled and he was unable to kill it. After that, the news disappeared.
"When did it happen? Guaranteed?"
"Guaranteed, it will not take more than a week if you hit the target!"
"60 yuan!" Yue Feng gave an offer without hesitation.
"Look, this is the point of the Wild Boar King. It's done..."
Before the other party could finish speaking, Yue Feng raised his head and glanced at Zhu Erhai: "50!"
"Yes, 60 is 60! Deal!" Zhu Erhai was afraid that Yue Feng would continue to lower the price, so he decisively agreed.
“Xiaowen, get him the money, I’ll give it to you later!”
"Oh!" Xiaowen immediately took out a wad of money from his arms, counted 60 and put it on the edge of the kang.
"Tell me, where is it, what is the situation? How did you find it? You have to think about it. If you lie to me, you know the consequences!" Yue Feng said in a calm tone with his eyes narrowed.
“After joining Woniu Mountain and Heixiazi Ridge, go northwest and see this from the second unnamed mountain ridge!
The boss group, the big wild boar king and the It looks like a small car, leading a large group of wild boars, at least a hundred or so pigs. The snow at the bottom of the ditch was trampled by the pigs!" Zhu Erhai described the location very accurately.
“How long ago?”
"It's been less than a week, and today seems to be the sixth day! On the third day of the third year of junior high school, my uncle and my dad wanted to go over there to collect some wild products, but we found the pigs and didn't dare to move. I was also thinking about trying something with a gun. , my dad refused to give in!
My dad said that he has never seen so many pigs in his whole life! The entire ditch and pond under the ridge has been plowed by pigs. It’s dark!”
After listening to the information, Yue Feng recalled in his mind the place Zhu Erhai said. Woniu Mountain and Heixiazi Ridge are not close to Xing’an Village. If you walk from home, it is almost Walk for three and a half hours.
Of course, there are also shortcuts. You can take the small train from the forest farm. First get off at the last stop in the forest area of No. 30, and then walk up Chaiji Road. It takes about 40 to 50 minutes to walk there. Over there.
"In this winter, your father and your uncle are going to the mountains to pick wild products? The mountains have been closed for snow, so we can pick wool!" Xiao Tao was afraid that Yue Feng would be deceived, so he raised the suspicious point in person. Come.
Yue Feng nodded: "Yeah, what kind of mountain products are you picking at this point?"
Being stared at by several pairs of eyes, Zhu Erhai scratched his head and explained with some embarrassment: "Actually, there is an old mountain dog over there. They left a lot of condoms and wallets in the surrounding areas, and they went to sneak condoms!”
This explanation can barely make sense.
All the condoms in the mountains have owners, but according to the rules in the mountains, the mountain wealth cannot be used exclusively.
If the hunter who placed the trap did not have time to slip the trap, he would be discovered by other mountain people in advance.
For example, if you tether a deer, roe deer, wild boar, etc., you only need to leave one leg or half a back seat for the owner of the tether, and you can take the rest with you without any problem!
The Zhu family really likes to do this kind of thing. They have nothing to do in winter, so they like to do this kind of thing. They call it hunting in the mountains!
"Okay, I get it! I bought this, and you are not allowed to tell anyone else!" Yue Feng nodded, indicating that he approved Zhu Erhai's information. He gave Zhu Erhai the money on the edge of the Kang.
"Don't worry about this, I understand the rules! Then you guys play first, I'll go over!"
After getting the money, Zhu Erhai immediately got out of the West Room and continued to fight on the table .
Only three brothers, Xiao Tao Xiaowen and Yue Feng, were left in the room.
"Brother, are we going to fight that 800-pound wild boar king? There are more than a hundred wild boars, what a scene! I think there is a lot of water in it!" Xiao Tao is still concerned about this matter. Be skeptical.
Yue Feng nodded: "If you have dates or not, let's go play a round and have a look! It's just that the journey is a bit far. Even if you take a small train, it will take a long time to go back and forth. Maybe you will have to spend the night in the mountains!" "
"We'll spend the night, we're well prepared, just find a place to light a fire and take turns to rest! We can survive it for a while!" Xiaowen spent the night in the mountains, but he didn't have any objections to this matter. of.
“Okay, I’ll think about it first, then we’ll meet at my house after dinner tonight, and we’ll study it!”
The brothers simply put it together and settled the matter for the time being.
