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

Chapter 168 Next Steps (Part and )

Thanks to the efforts of the villagers, the wall of Tuanjietun is being raised rapidly.

During this period, some topics naturally became the focus of discussion among the chatterbox old ladies:

"When you weren't here yesterday, I told you guys hey! Wolves are really scary! They're really vicious!"

"Yeah! Good fellows! They eat their own kind!

After Songzi killed one of them, the other wolves rushed over and started to show off! They almost chewed up the bones, and in the end only half of the skin was left, and they were sent to the garrison!"

"So cruel?! Oh my god, will raising the wall be effective?"

"Who cares! Look how much higher it is. Wolves can't fly! Besides, Songzi and the others are patrolling the village!"

"That's right! Anyway, you guys really lost out by not coming yesterday!"

"Hmm? What do you mean? Working one day less just means getting paid less. Everyone knows how stingy Qi Shunli is, so how can he still lose a lot?"

"It's not about money!" The old woman who was talking had little stars in her eyes when she thought of it. "Yesterday, the little bear chased the wolf and ran to the outside of the village, and then just sat there obediently. Oh! It was so cute!"

"Really? How rare can it be?"

"Let me tell you, it..."

And this is not the only case.

Within the wall, a "group" would form almost every certain distance to discuss the matter.

As time passed, the topic of conversation gradually shifted from admiring the cuteness of the little bear to hoping that the village could raise it.

A few smart people gathered together and found Qi Shunli.
They said they would take this opportunity to clear out the dilapidated houses in the southern part of the village. If the village couldn't think of anything to use them for, they could just plan them into shacks for the little bears!

Qi Shunli was extremely surprised to hear his fellow villagers speak their minds, but he was helpless.
After all, this matter is not something he can decide. It all depends on what Dai Song can do.

If you can build a relationship with the little bear and make sure it is obedient and will not hurt you,

Then he could consider building a shelter for the bears.
Even though he was an outsider, he could clearly feel the difficulties and dangers involved every time he and Wang Tu Douzi and others went into the mountains.

After hearing Qi Shunli's explanation, the villagers were all a little frustrated and wanted to ask Dai Song about the situation.

But he immediately realized that there is no perfect way to do anything, and his peaceful life now depends entirely on the hard work of others patrolling every night. It would be a bit unreasonable to make these excessive demands.

The more critical and widely circulated point is that the little bear, like the black wolf fairy, will also help chase away wolves, although Dai Song has already explained this;

It's all just the animals protecting their territory. Don't think too much about it.

But the old ladies who have been fascinated by the little bear for a long time don't care about all this, they are still willing to believe that the little bear came to and lived in Gouzi Mountain because he had a destiny with Tuanjie Village. Since they had a destiny, they should come and live in the village as soon as possible, and leave the matter of guarding the mountain to the Black Wolf Immortal!
That way they can watch and tease me every day. I was so excited just thinking about it that I almost burst into tears.

Fortunately, despite all their talk and thought, the villagers did not slow down much in building the wall.

In just three days, with the concerted efforts of villagers young and old, not only were the walls raised and leaks repaired, but the old houses in Tunnan, which were like plasters, were also cleaned up.

Nothing happened during that period and we spent three peaceful nights. Only when we passed by the entrance of the village when we were looking for a village, we could faintly hear a few wolf howls coming from Gouzi Mountain.

The old ladies got excited and patted their chests one by one to assure that it was the Black Wolf Fairy who helped the village drive away the wolves that had come to Forest Class 78!

Of course, the old women who said this would often add a few words of praise for the Dai brothers and the militia.

When this series of rumors reached the ears of the Dai family, it naturally caused considerable dissatisfaction.

"Hey! These old ladies! Did a bear hit your brain or something?
Who is it that keeps everyone safe every night? They work from around 4pm to 7 or 8am, and come back tired as a dead dog. They work so hard, but no one comes to visit them to express their condolences. They keep talking about the little bear and the black wolf all day long. I think their brains have been messed up by those things!"

Dai Xiaoqian heard this and quietly took out a few goose eggs from the musk deer's belly and handed them to the cursing Jiang Weiqin.

"Mom, there are still condolences. Someone came to deliver goose eggs this morning~"

"Ah! How did you stuff it under my precious little belly?" Jiang Weiqin hurriedly stroked the musk deer's head, then dug out three goose eggs from its belly, turned around and glared at Dai Xiaoqian.
"What are you thinking, girl?

The goose eggs are so big, and there are so many of them. How cold it must be stuffed under its stomach!

And don’t you see how small it is? Do you think it can hatch?”

"Of course!" Dai Xiaoqian felt a little aggrieved, looking at the musk deer, which had gained a lot of weight and whose fur was shining.

"Mom, you've fed this thing so hard that it's like a pig!

Look at its belly, it has never been flat all day long. It used to stay behind the stove, jumping up and down from time to time, but now it is too lazy to even stand up! It just lies there all day long!"

“You can’t let it hatch eggs!

Look how I pulled it out!

If it catches a cold and gets diarrhea, I'll show you how I'll deal with you!
Besides, these goose eggs are nothing but consolation! One by one..."

Jiang Weiqun was venting her unhappiness to herself. It was one thing for her two sons to work hard for the village, but no one paid attention to them. This really made her angry.

The two sisters-in-law also nodded silently, especially Tang Liping. She was like a widow these days. Her complexion and temper were much worse. Often, just a look from her could make the cheerful Dai Bo sit up straight.

The little girl was already used to her grandmother's nagging, and now she just seized the opportunity to be close to Dai Song.

Give them a car and they can play quietly in Dai Song's arms for two hours.
By the time the little girl got tired of playing, she was almost sleepy.

At this time, she would curl up her little butt, turn over, hide her little face in Dai Song's arms, and take a sweet nap.

It was not until Nan Chunwan came over to invite them to have lunch that the father and daughter got up together, and the two, one big and one small, accepted the feeding with confused looks on their faces.

During the meal, Jiang Weiqun continued to complain, cursing and picking up food for her two sons.

The two brothers had only finished half of their meal when they were already so bloated that they couldn't eat any more.

Dai Song moved a little behind the table to make room, thinking to himself;
After three days of work, the wall had been raised, and the nights had been calm over the past few days, with no more wolves jumping into the village.

It seemed that everything was as it had been seen that day;
The black wolf has already taken root with his pack in Forest Range 78. Any other wolf packs that come in will be hunted down by the black wolf.

Building a high wall is not only an additional line of defense for the village, it is also a conspicuous "achievement" that is enough to support the implementation of his subsequent plans.

In a few days, the forest farm will be coordinating the specimen collection task with various villages. It is also time to find everyone and smoothly propose the next step of the plan.

But in addition to this, there is another "time bomb", that is the Lin family;
These days, there has been no movement from the Lin family.

For this reason, he also approached Li Qinghai, trying to get some information indirectly.

But Li Qinghai was like a hawk, he was very old, he only slept four or five hours a day, and other than that he was wandering around the village with a gun. It was really difficult to find him by phone and make an appointment.

Dai Song could only make inferences based on the limited information.
Lin Sanpao must have been seriously injured, which is why he remained quiet and motionless.

Otherwise, with Li Qinghai, an old man with more energy and more spirit than young people,

With the additional militiamen sent over, it was more than enough to defend Xiazhutun.

There is no need for Lin Sanpao to help in there.

It's just that Lin Sanpao always stays in Xiazhu Village and doesn't come out to cause trouble, so it's hard to find an opportunity to deal with him, and it's impossible to determine his specific current situation. We can only wait for the town police station to report back the news. We must think of a way to make him show up...

Thinking of this, Dai Song suddenly sat up straight and quickly put on his clothes.

"Old man, what are you doing? Why don't you take a nap after eating?"

"No, I'm going to the headquarters."

"What are we going to do in the military camp?" Jiang Weiqun followed Dai Song's movements while feeding the little girl in her arms.

"The forest farm will be connecting with the village headquarters in just a few days. I'll go talk to Qi Shunli and see if there are any messy details that I haven't noticed. We can discuss it again."

"Oh~Success."

Jiang Weiqin was relieved, and the little girl in her arms also blinked her eyes twice and relaxed her shoulders in a serious manner (imitating the adults).

He continued to lean on his grandmother's arms, swallowing the food that was fed to him with a "wuwu" sound.

After leaving the house and telling his wife to hurry back home, Dai Song hurried to the village headquarters.

Qi Shunli was sitting at his seat eating a pancake wrapped with green onions. When he saw Dai Song coming, he immediately perked up.

"The pine nuts are here! Have you eaten them? Want a roll?" Qi Shunli said as he rolled out a pancake and handed it to Dai Song.

"No." Dai Song sat down. "I came here at this time to discuss important matters with Captain Qi."

"What?" Qi Shunli seemed to be choked. He gulped down several mouthfuls of water before his complexion recovered.

"The fence is now complete, and in two days the forest farm and the village will be coordinating the specimen collection task.
Should we arrange a meeting?
Gather together other village chiefs, hunters, and militiamen who participated in the village patrols to exchange findings during this period and summarize experiences.

In addition, I wonder if you, Captain Qi, still remember the leggings we found in the south of the village last time. This thing must belong to a hunter. We can take this opportunity to see if we can find out who it is in advance."

Qi Shunli's eyes lit up for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure.
"Matsuko, your idea is good, but a conference of this scale cannot be held under normal circumstances!

Our Tuanjietun is not like Yonglitun. If I go to convene a meeting, I’m afraid…”

Dai Song saw Qi Shunli's difficulty and asked, "So Captain Qi means that we can just ask Captain Su to solve the problem?"

"You can ask." Qi Shunli's expression instantly relaxed. "Tunzhang Su has a lot of face. If he wants to open it, he will definitely be able to do so!"

Dai Song nodded. "Okay, I'll go and give some suggestions to Captain Su. By the way, Captain Qi, I'll have to trouble you with something when the time comes."

"What's the matter?" Qi Shunli had just put the biscuit into his mouth, but immediately pulled it out after hearing this.

"When we get to the meeting, I'd like to ask Captain Qi to raise a matter, which is to ask other hunters not to come into our 78th Forestry Division to hunt.

There is an old rule for fencing in the forest farm. Village Chief Qi should know it, right? "

"Of course I know." Qi Shunli nodded. "Okay, I'll find a chance to bring it up when the time comes. But in the current situation, asking everyone to abide by the old rules doesn't seem to be conducive to solving the wolf problem. Can you agree to this request?"

"Just let it work on our 78th Forestry Division. Other forestry divisions may also agree to it out of consideration for their own interests."

"Hiss... other forest teams may not agree to it!" Qi Shunli was worried. "The specimen collection mission is a huge income, and it is based on the village. By then, many people will form a group to go into the mountains. If they surround the prey and kill it on the spot, it's ok. But if they catch up with other forest teams, they will definitely continue to chase them! Wait..."

Qi Shunli seemed to have come to his senses, and murmured, "It seems to be feasible. After all, no one can guarantee that other hunters will not kill other wild animals after entering their own forest. Then it will not be like before when only the hunters suffer, but the whole village will suffer! Just like what happened back then!"

Qi Shunli stood up suddenly, his eyes sparkling, "Hey! Now that I think about it, this request is indeed feasible!"

Dai Song smiled and nodded. Seeing that Qi Shunli had automatically given all the reasons in his mind, he got up and went to Xiangdong's store.

For some reason, Xiang Dongfang seems to have completely let go recently.

When he heard someone coming in, he just looked up and continued to study the "Spring and Autumn Annals" in his hand.

Dai Song narrowed his eyes and looked at the thickness of the book. After deciding it as the next couple's reading material, he called Yonglitun.

"Hello? Who is this?" Su Shaoda's voice was very hoarse, and it was obvious that it was caused by staying up late and smoking.

"It's me, Su Tunzhang, Dai Song."

"Dai Pao! I was just about to come find you! I've fixed up your Type 56 semi-automatic rifle for you! It's just not completely original now, do you mind?"

"Not original?" Dai Song frowned slightly.

"Well, I heard Lao He say this, but I don't quite understand it.

He said, the barrel of your gun was bent, and although it was straightened later, the method was too rough, and the rifling inside was deformed.
Moreover, the barrel was not completely straightened, with two bends in the middle. The shooting accuracy was directly scrapped when the range exceeded 500 meters.

This kind of problem cannot be adjusted. To repair the rifling, you need a rifling lathe in a military factory.
There used to be a militia, but it was taken away by the military factory last year.

There was no other choice but to find another 56 rifle and replace the barrel of Dai Pao with a better one. "

"Thank you so much, Director He. Thank you, too, for your hard work, Village Chief Su!" Dai Song smiled silently.
The so-called finding another 56 and a half is nothing more than finding a gun that is almost obsolete except that the barrel is not worn much. He said this just to show his own contribution and investment.

But it also gave Dai Song an opportunity. In order to deliberately highlight the nature of the meeting, he quickly organized his words.

"Captain Su, you have helped me so much, I must express my gratitude!
Do you think this will work? In two days the forest farm will be connected with the village. Let's take this opportunity to work together to hold a phased summary meeting!

I will help the militiamen summarize before the meeting, so that Yongli Village will have ready-made information by then!"

"Hey! Great!" Su Shaoda seemed to pat his thigh, "This is great! What everyone lacks at a time like this is experience! Communicate and summarize with each other, so that we can make progress faster!"

"That's what I mean. Besides, we can coordinate the specimen task at the meeting. This way, it will be transparent and open, and there will be no gossip in the future."

"Yeah! I have the same idea!" Su Shaoda added, "The most crucial point! Dai Pao, recently some militiamen and Director He reported that the atmosphere in some villages is not very upright! I feel that if we continue to let it go like this, something big will happen sooner or later! We need to bring it up at the meeting!"

"Huh? Village Chief Su, you also discovered it?" Dai Song was shocked. Could it be that Lin Sanpao was committing multiple crimes, and Yongli Village was also victimized by him? ? !

"Yeah! Damn it, that Zheng Xiaojian from Shisong Village is a scumbag... And he's not even a village cadre, so he's not subject to discipline. It's hard for me to deal with him in this situation!"
