Reborn in the 1980s: I made my fortune hunting wild game in Changbai Mountain

Evan is cunning, but Yue Feng is even more cunning.

These hybrid falcon eaglets are Yue Feng's future foundation, and he won't let them out easily at this stage. Evan tried to probe with words, but Yue Feng didn't give him a chance at all.

Evan shrugged slightly after hearing this: "That's a bit of a shame! I originally thought that even if the black gyrfalcon breeding program failed, bringing back an Altai hybrid falcon would have made the trip worthwhile!"

To be honest, the ordinary white gyrfalcons don't appeal to us much!
The hunting skills they've already learned are of little use for our falconry breeding program!

When he said this, Evan appeared very calm, as if it were a complete expression of his own thoughts.

After hearing this, Yue Feng smiled slightly and said, "That is indeed a pity! But it's okay. There's an old Chinese saying: 'Even if a deal falls through, friendship remains!' Even if a transaction doesn't go through, we can still be friends!"
Now that we've seen the eagles, my master will surely bring back his prey soon! Let's all have a feast of pork stew and drinks!

Upon hearing the translator relay the message, Evan's heart skipped a beat, and his face turned ashen.

They've gone to so much trouble and expense to travel all this way to Yuefeng for a visit and inspection, they certainly don't want to go back empty-handed!

Evan's deliberate act of not wanting the white-colored spear falcon was a test of Yue Feng's bottom line.

After all, Yue Feng is young, and he might give in after such a test.

After hearing Yue Feng's answer, Evan realized he was wrong, and terribly wrong.

Yue Feng remained extremely calm throughout, and his attitude was very clear.

If you're looking to import or trade these birds, the white gyrfalcons in the breeding farm are your best bets.

As for the even more precious black falcon and hybrid falcon, forget about it.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, Feng Huanping cleverly interjected to guide the pace of the conversation.

"Haha, Xiaofeng, you're speaking too soon! We haven't even finished visiting all the remaining eagles yet! Maybe there are other eagles that will pique everyone's interest! Are there any other eagles further in?"

Yue Feng grinned: "Yes, but they're all non-sale items! I can show everyone around!"

Upon hearing that it was not for sale, Evan and his friends exchanged glances and quickly followed.

After looking around, Evan gave Robert a subtle shake of his head.

These are all non-breeding raptors raised by Yue Feng, such as the caged Red-eared Eagle, the Saker Falcon and Peregrine Falcon chicks brought back from Beijing, and that pair of very precious white Grey-backed Falcons.

“A pure white grey-backed falcon!! This is the same eagle that appeared in the video at the last exhibition!” Robert was immediately excited when he saw the grey-backed falcon.

The grey-backed falcon is nicknamed the "magic falcon" abroad because of its superb flying skills and wide range of hunting diets. From the perspective of falconry playability, it is the best among small falcons, without exception.

This creature's breeding grounds are located quite far north, making it difficult to reintroduce. In China, it is mostly a winter migratory bird, and even getting a chick is extremely difficult, let alone a healthy albino pair of mutant individuals like this.

Robert was an expert and naturally knew how rare this thing was.

Yue Feng grinned: "Haha, you're talking about that albino grey-backed falcon in the palace rabbit and tiger encirclement performance at the last exhibition, right? That's just a sister bird from the same nest as these two, not these two falcons!"

Robert's expression changed slightly after hearing this, and he looked at Yue Feng and asked, "You mean, you have a pair of albino Grey-backed Falcons as your parents? These albino individuals were bred by yourselves?"

Yue Feng grinned and nodded: "That's true, but the parent birds aren't in my breeding farm! It was a gift from a colleague."

This pair of albino grey-backed falcons are from the same nest. In two years, I'll have the chance to get my own albino mutant grey-backed falcon!

Robert nodded after listening to the translator's words, gaining a new understanding of Yue Feng's abilities.

As Evan predicted, China's falconry development is indeed far more advanced than Robert had previously assumed.

His petty scheme to gain a voice by relying on technological monopoly has completely failed.

Yue Feng led everyone on a long tour of the eagle enclosure, then bypassed the enclosures for the sables and other animals, and led them back to the interior of the north room.

The temperature outside was very low after the snow, and after spending time outdoors, everyone's noses were red.

Once inside, everyone rubbed their hands together, drank a cup of tea, and slowly warmed up.

"Mr. Yue Feng, the quality, quantity, and condition of all the falcons you have are quite a surprise to our inspection team!" Robert said with great sincerity.

Yue Feng smiled and nodded: "Haha, it's definitely not as good as your professional breeding farms, but we are gradually becoming more standardized!"

The falconry club in Beijing is gradually becoming more standardized in terms of cages and equipment. I believe it will reach a certain scale within three to five years. We're all in the same industry, so we should exchange ideas more often!

Robert continued, "We also visited BJ's breeding base; Mr. Zhang Chaochao took us there!"
The four purebred gyrfalcons we brought to China are currently under temporary quarantine and observation there!
Before we came, we planned that if everything went smoothly, we could share resources and cooperate for a win-win situation!

Upon hearing this, Yue Feng knew that he hadn't bought into Evan's probing words, and now it was Robert's turn to continue testing the waters.

Yue Feng shook his head and said with a hint of regret, "It's a pity, I really can't provide the eagles you need!"
If you're involved in raptor breeding, you must understand that different breeding sites are at different stages of development and have different needs!

To be honest, I currently have enough bloodline eagles. The reason I agreed to trade with you is because of my friend Mr. Zhang, and to have another bloodline option to add to my already good fortune!

If we set aside these factors and make a calm assessment, it's actually not in my best interest to trade away my ace pedigree falcon too early!

Mr. Salman in the Middle East will be one of my core customer groups in the future. Top-quality falcons with Black Falcon lineage will sell well!
As for me, I currently have very little financial pressure regarding daily maintenance, and I'm not short of money!
Last time, just exchanging falcons with Mr. Salman cost him 50 RMB. That's enough for my falconry farm to operate risk-free for ten years!

Yue Feng's words were quite skillful; he both publicly elevated Zhang Chaochao's status and objectively described his own position, as well as the current development of his Falconry.

Evan was a witness to the last time Falcon was traded at a loss, so he naturally knows the inside story. There is absolutely no problem with Yue Feng revealing it now.

Hearing Yue Feng's confident demeanor, Robert glanced at Evan, who was drinking tea with his head down, and then exchanged a look with Allen. Both of them had a hint of helplessness in their eyes.

Despite his young age, Yue Feng is a clever man who is not easily fooled. Throughout the entire process, he was in an absolutely dominant position, making it difficult for him to use any tricks to push the deal forward or take the opportunity to lower the price.

Two seconds later, Robert sighed and said, "We are very careful about introducing new breeds, after all, each bloodline falcon is very valuable!"
Otherwise, let's go back and think about it! We have plenty of time on this trip, so there's no rush to make a decision right away!

Yue Feng nodded: "Of course, any stable and long-lasting relationship is built on the basis of fairness and justice!"

You are Zhang Chaochao's friends, and naturally, you are my friends too. You deserve our utmost respect!

...They were chatting and drinking tea inside the house when they heard the mournful cries of a wild boar coming from the courtyard gate.

Yue Feng turned his head slightly and immediately stood up from his seat.

Master Zhao Dashan has returned.

Zhao Dashan was seen carrying a yellow-haired wild boar with its limbs bound on his shoulder into the yard, accompanied by hunting dogs.

"Xiaofeng, come out and lend a hand! I've caught the pig!" Zhao Dashan shouted in a strong voice.

"Yes, I heard you!" Yue Feng responded, and immediately greeted the guests in the room: "My master is back. Please rest for a while, I'll go lend a hand!"

Everyone turned their heads to look at the courtyard gate. When they saw the old man carrying a live wild boar back by himself, they couldn't help but frown slightly.

At any time, strength is the foundation for earning respect.

If the old man dragged back a wild boar carcass weighing over 100 pounds, no one would think it was too exaggerated. After all, he had a gun and hunting dogs. Hunting a boar only meant that he was a good shot and knew a lot about the prey around him.

Now things are different. The old man single-handedly captured a wild boar weighing nearly 100 pounds and carried it back on his shoulder. This strength far exceeds the comprehension of ordinary people.

After Yue Feng left the north room, he immediately went to meet his master and helped carry the pig down.

"Master, did you get hurt?" Yue Feng asked, glancing at Zhao Dashan.

Zhao Dashan waved his hand and said without even panting, "It's nothing. Canglong and the others caught the pig. I didn't fire a shot! They just tied its hooves and carried it back!"

It weighs just under 100 pounds, which is exactly when the meat is at its best!
"Give me a hand, hang the pig on the rack, and take out the basin of pig's blood. The rest is fine; this old man can handle it all by himself!"

"Okay, I'll go get my things first!"

Yue Feng responded and turned to get a basin. He then helped his master hang the prey on a wooden rack at the base of the wall before slowly entering the house.

"Mr. Yuefeng, did your master capture a half-grown wild boar alive?" Robert asked, trying to make conversation.

"Yes, wild boar meat that's too big is coarse and doesn't taste as good! In the authentic way we make Northeastern pork stew, we need to use blood sausage, so the pig is best when it's alive and processed on-site for the freshest taste!" Yue Feng explained.

"You guys chat for a bit, I'll go help start the fire and have a smoke while I'm at it!"

At this moment, Master Niu, who was standing next to Feng Huanping, wisely got up to help with the work.

After listening to Yue Feng's explanation, Robert continued, "Why can't we see any bullet wounds? Did you use some special method?"

Yue Feng shook his head again: "This half-grown wild boar was caught by my hunting dogs!"
In Northeast China, this is called "hunting dogs encircling the prey." The hunting dogs have different roles and work together to chase the prey. Once they stop the prey, they swarm it!

This wild boar, weighing over a hundred pounds, could be easily subdued by two hunting dogs working together. My master only needed to tie its limbs with rope and carry it back!

"That sounds really exciting!"

"Haha, if you're interested, I can take you into the mountains tomorrow! By the way, we can also test the combat performance of my falcon and hounds!" Yue Feng said, following up on the conversation.

"Of course, I'm really looking forward to it! The videotape Evan brought back last time had footage of a falcon and hounds hunting a stag!"

"The performances at the exhibition were rather conservative. In fact, with the cooperation of falcons and their dogs, plus human involvement, the hunting potential is extremely high, far exceeding your imagination!"

"Hmm? Do you have any other practical experience?"

"Of course, please wait a moment, I'll get you the evidence!"

Yue Feng responded and turned to go into the inner room, where he found a newspaper from the previous newspaper that reported Yue Feng's hunting team had captured Black Tiger alive.

The newspaper has turned slightly yellowed over the years, but the large photographs on it are still clearly visible.

In the photo, Yue Feng is riding an eagle, accompanied by a dog, with a coal ball covered in armor squatting beside him, and a black mutated tiger in an iron cage behind him.

Jinlong and the Ye brothers had already read the newspaper report about the last tiger hunt, but for Zhang Chaochao, Feng Huanping, and the Americans, this was the first time they had seen it.

Immediately, everyone gathered around the newspaper and began to examine it carefully.

The newspaper article recorded the entire hunting process, almost completely reproducing the whole process of Yue Feng leading the team to capture the black tiger alive.

The translator looked at the newspaper text while translating it into English for the three Americans.

For a moment, everyone in the room breathed a little heavier.

"Holy crap! Xiaofeng, you're amazing! You managed to capture this black tiger weighing several hundred pounds alive?"

Zhang Chaochao was the first to finish reading the article in the newspaper, and the way he looked at Yue Feng clearly changed.

Previously, Zhang Chaochao only knew that Yue Feng was a hunter who knew how to train eagles and hunt, but he had never associated him with tigers.

After all, tigers are no longer a common species in this day and age, so there's nowhere to hunt them if you want to. Yue Feng isn't very old, and his hunting experience probably isn't that extensive.

But after reading the newspaper, I learned that Yue Feng was actually the leader of a top-notch hunting team invited to help Tiger City, and the fierce man who led his men to capture the mutated black tiger alive.

In an instant, Zhang Chaochao became much clearer and understood many things.

For example, why would the Wang family, a top-tier elite group in the capital, hold this young man from humble beginnings in such high regard? And why did Yue Feng display such remarkable composure compared to his peers when he handed Li Wenhu the knife?

Yue Feng's success today is not due to luck, but entirely to his ability.

Facing Zhang Chaochao, Yue Feng grinned sheepishly: "Hehe, just lucky! Quite a few people went back then, and it took more than ten days to finish the job!"

"Where did that mutated black tiger go? It went there with the big black eagle, didn't it?"

"Yes, Black Hawk is in charge of harassment, and then guides the hunting team's dogs and the outer personnel to their positions!"

As for where the mutated black tiger went, I have no idea. When I caught it, it only suffered minor injuries and was completely intact! (End of Chapter)
