Rebirth of Bayi Fishing and Hunting in the Northwest

If he wanted to go to the cabin, he had to prepare the stove and bring some necessary daily necessities. Of course, since he was going, he had to bring his gun. He participated in the militia training in the hope of getting more bullets for hunting. In winter, if Halimu and the others could provide more clues about prey, he could hunt more.

Otherwise winter would be so boring.

Of course, sheep trolling and horse racing are also very interesting and you can participate in them.

In the previous life, I was not interested in horse racing, and I could even say that I hated it a little.

Because in a certain year in the previous life, Li Juan was in junior high school. At that time, Li Jianguo had already had an accident. One day it was raining, and Li Juan was hit by one of the ethnic people who were racing horses on her way to school. Li Long didn't know the details, he only knew that there was a big cut on Li Juan's forehead, and the rain had been washing it, and Li Juan was knocked unconscious.

When Li Long found out about this, Li Juan had already been sent to the township clinic, and was sent back after being bandaged.

Those people on horseback had already run away and no one knew where they were. But when they asked around, they heard from the students that Li Juan was riding from west to east when she was hit, and not long after, they returned to the east with the sheep.

Even if Li Long was not a human being, he was still annoyed at this time. He searched for several kilometers to the east, but in the end he did not find the settlement of those herdsmen.

This matter was also a thorn in his heart.

However, Li Long has lived two lives and knows that there are good and bad people in every nation, and one should not vent his anger on others because of this, so he will not look at Halimu and others with tinted glasses.

But we will definitely pay attention to this matter later - that was in 1984.

It's still early.

If you are just in an uninhabited area, horse racing and sheep catching are actually quite attractive. The Kazakhs are a horse-riding people. Children have to ride horses when they are two or three years old. When they are older, they can ride horses to drive sheep by themselves. In this long winter, there are not many entertainment activities for them to participate in.

Now they have an extra radio, but for them, listening to the radio quietly is not necessarily as exciting as watching horse racing.

After eating the pork with hands, Li Long agreed to go to the mountains later and drove No. 76 back - this time there were some more things on his carriage.

Mainly frozen meat and a few skins - after they sent the collected specialties to Halimu last time, some people went hunting again. For example, some people didn't like to eat wolf meat very much, while some people felt it was a bit embarrassing to ask Li Long to provide them with a radio, so they brought venison and deerskin.

Before Li Long went into the mountains, they also needed to go down the mountain to exchange things after moving.

The exchange rate for basic food was usually not that high - after all, it was the era of the Great Collective, and the grain production itself was not high, so the food rations left by each family were not much. To go to the grain store to buy food, you need grain coupons, not to mention other coupons.

In addition, it was winter, so basically we could not get much when we went down the mountain to exchange things. Only when we sold cattle and sheep could we get some tickets from the supply and marketing cooperative or the sheep collectors to support our lives.

Now that Li Long is here, it has brought great convenience to these people - Li Long can exchange for any materials they can think of, and even for things they have never thought of or even seen.

So there is a need to rely on Li Long. After all, you only need to hand over the things you have obtained to Li Long, and the rest is to wait for Li Long to deliver the things.

And every time Li Long sent something, he never disappointed them.

On the cart were a wolf, a deer, and three pieces of leather. The leather was very good in winter, but of course it was frozen hard.

Li Long sat in the carriage and let No. 76 go back. He felt a little sleepy - mainly because he ate too much and felt a little dizzy due to lack of blood to his brain.

The sunlight shining on the snow was quite dazzling, and Li Long didn't want to open his eyes. He occasionally glanced at the road, and then continued to doze off with his eyes closed, leaning on the leather covering the frozen meat.

When they were still more than one kilometer away from the Qingshui River, they suddenly felt that No. 76 stopped abruptly. Li Long fell forward and hurriedly grabbed the handlebars to steady himself. When he opened his eyes and pulled the reins, he saw a group of seven or eight guys with white tails, kicking up a cloud of snow and rushing into the distance.

In a moment it disappeared into the snowy bushes.

Yellow sheep!
When Li Long reacted and reached out to grab his gun, he couldn't even see the white butts of the gazelles.

Are the yellow sheep so arrogant nowadays?

Li Long felt a little regretful. If he had been awake and saw the yellow sheep coming, he would have been able to keep one.

He decided that if he came here to live for a while again in the future, he would definitely come here to take a look and shoot a few gazelles.

The taste of yellow sheep meat is not as good as the sheep we just ate, but after all, this thing is a kind of antelope, so the function of its horns still needs to be paid attention to.

Li Long suddenly arrived and said that in a few years, once a certain law was passed, some things from wild animals could no longer be used.

So, can I stock up some now, at least as a backup for later?

For example, rhino horns, nail scales, etc.

It may not be available in Ma County or Shicheng, but you may be able to get it in a Chinese medicine store in Wucheng.

If all else fails, let the old man get something from his mouth. Including tiger bones and the like. This stuff can still be bought with money now, but after a few years, it will basically have nothing to do with ordinary people.

When Li Long came to his senses, No. 76 had already pulled the carriage to Qingshui River. The road ahead was easier to walk, but Li Long stopped dozing off and went all the way back to the compound. It was already past four o'clock, and Gu Xiaoxia had already gone to work. Li Long unloaded the frozen meat and did not sell the skins this time, but put them in the room. Now that you are not short of money, it is not bad to keep some things, as they will definitely appreciate in value later.

Although there was a period of time when prices soared and money was worthless, it was still early, and Li Long believed that by then he would be almost financially free, even if he had not achieved it.

He planned to pull a cart of fish to Shicheng tomorrow to try the market there. No matter if it worked or not, he would continue to pull fish to the big yard when he came back. He thought he would not be able to pull fish for a few days, as he would have to go for militia training soon.

Second brother Li Anguo and the others would definitely not participate in the militia training. Letting them stay in the village with nothing to do would be better for them to drive a horse-drawn carriage to Shicheng to sell fish. They could find something to do and earn money.

Li Long unloaded the carriage while thinking, pulled No. 76 to the back and tied it up, then turned around, found a stool to prop up the carriage, and began to load the fish into the carriage.

Since he was selling fish alone, Li Long didn't dare to carry too much. He only put in ten bags of fish, weighing about five or six hundred kilograms, to test the waters.

After the fish was loaded, Li Long took the 56 semi-automatic rifle to the house to start maintenance. He would need to use the rifle well in the mountains later, so he needed to maintain it now.

Not long after, Gu Xiaoxia came back. She brought an aluminum lunch box with her. When she got to the door, she saw that the door was not locked, so she knew that Li Long had returned. She pushed the door open, pushed her bicycle in, turned around, closed the door, propped up the bicycle, and went to the kitchen.

He opened the stove lid, poked open the broken charcoal, poured some coal into the stove, put the pot on, poured water into it, opened the lower stove door, and the fire in the stove immediately started.

Put the grate on the pot, then take a small enamel basin from the shelf, pour the rice and vegetables in the rectangular aluminum lunch box into the enamel basin, use chopsticks to pick up the rice grains stuck in the lunch box, then cover the pot and wash the lunch box.

After hearing the noise, Li Long put down his gun, wiped his hands and went out. He went to the kitchen and saw Gu Xiaoxia washing her hands. He smiled and asked:

"What are you doing?"

"I brought you some rice and fried potato shreds from Sister Yang. I thought you would like to eat them."

"Is it heated up?" Li Long was not actually very hungry. The mutton was very filling, but since Gu Xiaoxia brought it, he naturally had to eat it.

"Well, it will be ready in a moment. Go and do your thing. I'll call you when I'm ready."

"Okay." Li Long responded, he hadn't finished cleaning the gun yet.

Ten minutes later, Li Long came out, washed his hands, and started eating.

Gu Xiaoxia held her chin with her hands and watched him eat with big mouthfuls of food, her eyes full of happiness.

The next day, Li Long got up early and Gu Xiaoxia had already prepared breakfast - she knew the day before that Li Long was going to Shicheng to sell fish the next day, so she got up early this morning, made pancakes and fried vegetables so that Li Long could have a hot meal.

In fact, Li Long originally wanted to go directly to the cafeteria to eat a meal and then leave, but Gu Xiaoxia didn't want to, saying that it would be a good idea to feel the feeling of living in advance.

Li Long naturally would not refuse.

After the two had breakfast together, Gu Xiaoxia asked Li Long to go first as it was still early and it would not be too late for her to go to work after she finished packing. So Li Long harnessed the carriage and led it out the door.

Almost two hours later, Li Long drove the carriage to the old street. The sun had just come out at this time. What surprised Li Long was that there were not many people in the old street.

Not only were there not many people, there were also not many stalls, and no one was selling fish. This made Li Long very happy. Without competitors, the fish would definitely be sold.

Finding a relatively spacious spot at the fork in the road, Li Long spread out the plastic sheet, poured a bag of fish from the carriage, spread them out on the plastic sheet, then took down the scale and put it aside. Finally, he placed a bundle of fodder from the rear of the vehicle next to No. 76's mouth, letting it graze and rest, while he shouted:
"Fish for sale! Fish for sale! Big carp, big crucian carp, black carp, big fat fish, fish for sale! Fish for sale..."

His shout added a touch of bright color to the old street, which had become a little gray because of the hurried pedestrians and the stall owners huddled together due to the cold.

Some pedestrians slowed down and looked in his direction.

Someone came over and asked:
"Young man, where did this fish come from? When was it frozen?"

"Let's be frank. I caught this fish from the sea about ten days ago and froze it right after I caught it. The fish must be fresh and the price is cheap."

"Cheap? How much?" A person nearby asked immediately when he heard it was cheap.

"Crucian carp and five-color carp are both 80 cents per kilogram." Li Long said, "It's much cheaper than in summer."

"Hey, young man, have you ever sold fish here in the summer? I think you look familiar. Why don't you gut the fish? Is it okay to take it back and process it?"

"Yes, of course. Fish is different from meat. If the animal is not gutted and frozen, the blood will go into the meat and it will become smelly when thawed. If the fish is gutted and then frozen, the fish meat will go bad, so it needs something to hold it..." Li Long explained.

"Okay, come and weigh a carp for me, this one." The old man said, pointing to a big carp weighing almost three kilograms with a red head and a yellow tail.
