Forest Farm 1985: Raise a bear cub to climb the mountain

Chapter 130 Telephone
Li Qinghai was speechless for a long time.

Although Dai Song did not describe the specific process of hunting wolves, as an experienced hunter, the difficulties involved are self-evident.

After a while, he laughed heartily:

"Okay, Dai Song! It has to be you. It really depends on you! It's all good after the fight! Everyone can breathe a sigh of relief! Xie Defa! Don't be so sad! Dai Song killed that group of wolves!"

"What the hell?!" Xie Defa's shocked voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Do you have good ears or something?" Li Qinghai said in a dissatisfied voice, "I said Dai Song killed that group of wolves. Can I fool you or will Dai Song fool you?"

"It's not Li Pao, it's not just me, my brother also helped."

"Oh, they're all the same! Xie Defa, did you hear me? Hurry up and broadcast it on the loudspeaker!

Tell everyone about this!
But remember to add that we still need to be careful. This year there seem to be more wolves than in previous years. We just finished killing the wolves in Yongli Village a few days ago, and now there are wolves again. I would like to remind the villagers that you should bring your weapons with you when you leave the village. If you can avoid going out alone, do not go out alone. "

Dai Song felt nervous when he heard Li Qinghai say this.

I had a vague feeling that something was wrong when I was hunting wolves last night. As far as I could remember, the most common animals in the forest farm were wild boars. Although there had been wolves roaming around the village in previous years, it was very rare.

At most they would be killed once or twice in a year, but in just half a month, they killed two groups of Soviet-haired gray wolves, and the number of wolves in the second group was far greater than the first one.

"Li Pao." Dai Song interrupted Li Qinghai, who was discussing the content of the notice with Xie Defa.

"Li Pao, do you think these Su-hair wolves will make their den in the Greater Khingan Range?"

“It’s hard to say. In the middle of winter, there’s nothing to eat in the forest, so it’s normal for wolves to come down the mountain and wander around the village.

A few days ago, we killed the Pig God and a large group of wild boars. We can’t say for sure whether these wolves ran down from the mountains because they had nothing to eat, or whether they just ran over from Su Mao.”

Dai Song nodded slightly. Hearing that Li Qinghai was just as unsure as he was, he had to put his doubts aside for the time being. After saying a few words of concern to Li Qinghai, he hung up the phone and went to find Qi Shunli to discuss the matter.

Under Li Qinghai's supervision, Xie Defa broadcast the news to the entire village.

The villagers of Xiazhutun were delighted when they heard this, and for a moment they forgot about the precautions in the second half of the sentence.

Many of the stragglers immediately got together and went to the town. The women went to visit each other in twos and threes, dancing the yangge. The children were even more happy. They took out small sleds from home, took turns pulling them, and had a lot of fun in the village. Life suddenly returned to its former peaceful state.

Only the Lin family was filled with resentment.

"Dad, no! That group of wolves is useless!" Lin Sanpao frowned.

"Dad, let's go and get another group!" Lin Lao Er leaned on the edge of the kang, pretending to reach for the gun hanging on the wall.

"What are you in such a hurry for!" Lin Jixiong shouted, stopping Lin Laoer's actions, with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

"You're awesome, Dai Song. You took on nine Sumao wolves right away. Humph! You must have suffered a lot of damage after eating all these wolves!"

The two brothers looked at each other, neither of them could guess what Lin Jixiong was thinking.

"Dad, what should we do? He has wiped out this group of wolves. Shouldn't we go out and look for another group?"

"Not yet!" Lin Jixiong refused. "How can you be sure that there are no other wolves in the old forest right now? Are you going to die?"

Lin Laoer was speechless.

Thinking carefully about my father's original plan, there must be more than just that group of wolves in the forest now.

However, the wolves that were led by the two of them to the vicinity of Dai Song's home had all been killed, and the remaining wolves might not go to Tuanjietun again. Could it be that they wanted to watch Dai Song get away with it?
Although Lin Sanpao was slow to react, the long silence of his father and brother gave him enough time to think. When he thought of this, he could not wait any longer.

“Dad! Dai Song must be injured now!
This plan didn’t work completely, but it certainly worked!

We can't waste such an opportunity!
If the wolves outside didn't go to Tuanjietun and let Dai Song recover, he would be more careful when he encounters a wolf pack next time!
By then, it will be impossible to expect the wolves to deal with him, let alone follow behind him to get benefits. We can't wait!"

"Yes, Dad, if we miss this opportunity, we will never have it again, we must seize it!
Let us go. We won't go to the border. We'll just look for wolves in the woods and lead them to Tuanjietun when we find them. Don't worry, Dad. We've both fought wolves twice before and have experience. We'll be fine!"

"dad……"

"Stop arguing!" Lin Jixiong closed his eyes and thought for a long time, "I'm already like this, the Lin family will depend on you two from now on, if anything happens to you two again, what should I do?"

Lin Lao Er remained silent.

Lin Sanpao raised his head and said: "Nothing will happen!
Dad, my brother and I are both experienced and work well together! Besides, we have two guns. If we can't win, we can run away. If we can't run away, we can hide in the woods or climb a tree!
We won't be eaten by wolves anyway. If we kill a group of wolves, it will be a good way to restore our family's reputation! Then we can compete with Dai Song openly!

My brother and I are united, and you are here to help us make decisions. We are not afraid of being defeated by Dai Song!"

Lin Lao Er also quickly chimed in, "Then it will be much easier for us to trip up Dai Song! Dad! Let us go!"

"..." Lin Jixiong frowned, remained silent for a while, and finally nodded in agreement. At the same time, the heavy snow covered the ice of the Black River like a layer of dense foam.

Looking at the footprints of their own kind above, the wolves let out a long howl, then rushed across the river and into the Greater Khingan Range, following the breath of the former and heading straight towards Shisongtun and Yonglitun.

……

In the town's telephone booth, Nan Qiumei was smiling.
"Xiaohua, will you be home tomorrow? We haven't seen each other for a long time. Let's have a good chat tomorrow!"

"Yes! Sister Qiumei, you will come back to the village tomorrow!!"

"Yeah~"

"That's great, Sister Qiumei! It's been such a long time since you came back! You must have missed me so much! I'll prepare some more Gala fruits for you!
This fruit seedling was given to me by you, Sister Qiumei! It finally started to bear fruit this year, and my family was reluctant to use it for grafting. We plan to wait a few more years. The first batch of fruit will be waiting for you, Sister Qiumei, to come and eat it!"

"Haha, great! Let me try and see if there's much difference between mine and mine. By the way, how's your orchard going?"

"Hey, don't mention it, it's just like that~
It’s definitely incomparable to Sister Qiumei’s orchard. Your orchard is the largest in the village. Nanbo is now the apple king. Who can compare with him~”

Nan Qiumei's lips curled up into a proud smile, but her voice remained calm.
"Well, I just planted some fruit trees a few years ago. Your family has leased a lot of land and planted a lot of fruit trees. Just wait and see.
The demand for good fruit in town is huge. My father and his family alone cannot eat all of them. If you graft the fruit trees, you will definitely make some money!"

"Really? That would be great! Sister Qiumei, this one fruit tree is enough as a mother tree, can you give me two more~"

"Hey! Xiaohua~Aren't you asking for too much~"

"Hehe~ Didn't Sister Qiumei say that there is a great demand for Gala fruit in town? I was thinking that my family could fill the gap left by Uncle Nan as soon as possible and occupy the market~"

"You~ don't think so much, and don't be so stubborn. Your fruit trees should have started to bear fruit, right?"

"Yeah, but it doesn't taste as good as Qiumei's. It's just that it's so-so after using the new medicine."

"Medicine? What is that? I never saw my dad use any medicine when he was planting trees."

"Oh~Oh, it's a kind of fertilizer for fruit trees! It can make fruit trees grow faster. The nutrient solution can make fruit trees produce more fruits, and the fruits will be more fragrant."

"Oh~" Nan Qiumei pondered for a moment and realized that she didn't understand at all, so she continued with what she had said before,
“The town needs more than just Gala fruit, apple-flavored things are actually quite new!
The fruit from the new tree is simply not sweet enough, and the taste is not authentic enough! You can boil it and make it into a thicker juice or fragrant fruit cakes, and sell them in town. There will definitely be people who buy them!
I saw an old lady drinking juice in the cinema today!

I had never seen the color before, but when I asked, I found out that it was apple juice! The aroma! It was amazing!
Many people around me are so greedy that I asked my mom to make some for me when I get home!"

"Don't bother Aunt Yan! Sister Qiumei, I'll make it for you! You can taste it while I'm at it!"

"That's fine! See you tomorrow afternoon!"

"Yeah! See you there!"

Seeing Lv Yinhua hang up the phone, Kuang Wenqiao, who accompanied her, asked curiously:
"Qiumei is back? What did she talk to you about?"

……

After I got home from the phone call, Nan Qiumei came running over and reported softly that she had split the fifty yuan with her sister-in-law. There was anticipation in her eyes, but also a bit of trepidation:
Tang Liping didn't want to share it at first, but Nan Chunwan insisted, so she decided to take five yuan as a token of her appreciation.

But Nan Chunwan refused, so she had to take ten yuan...

In the end, she had no choice but to "shamelessly" take twenty, and then she insisted that she would not take any more, and she would not take any more. Only then did Nan Chunwan give up.

Dai Song felt that it didn't matter how it was divided, as they were all family. He happily praised his young wife, and then watched her smile like a kitten and then turn around to go back to her work, and then he went to check the leopard skin.

The leopard skin was missing an ear and there were two big holes on the back of its neck. Dai Song felt indescribable.

It's hard to say how sad he was. After all, this leopard was killed by Erhan, so it was a free pick-up for him. Even though he couldn't sell it for a high price, the money was like money blown by the wind.

But people are always greedy. Once they have something, they want more. Looking at the leopard skin that could not be sold at a high price, he felt uncomfortable.

He squatted beside the stove, looking through the stove over and over again, completely unaware of the musk deer nesting nearby.

This little musk deer had already begun to get used to life in captivity.

Except Jiang Weiqun, it gradually began to accept other people touching it.

At this moment, seeing Dai Song shaking out the leopard skin and smelling the fishy odor, it immediately wilted, lowered its head and trembled.

Fortunately, the man did not torture it for long. Footsteps were heard outside the house, and then the man howled, and the man hurried out.

Seeing Xiang Dongfang rushing towards him, Dai Song held the "baby" in his arms tightly.
"What's the matter, uncle?"

"Songzi, there's a call for you, it's from Brother Jiang!"
