Returning to hometown to farm: The apocalypse system arrived ten years earlier?

Chapter 77: Holding Huang on the left and Qing on the right... Drone, the mountain sweeping begins (asking for the first order, asking for monthly tickets)
The next day, Jiang Jianguo came to Li Xiang's house to train him on drone flying skills, which Li Xiang was good at.

In his previous life, he was at least a special soldier at the base, and he was even a company commander. He also played with drones, robot dogs, etc. However, in the end times, there was a shortage of electricity, and the combat power of drones and robot dogs was not as strong as that of monsters. They could only be used for reconnaissance or suicide attacks, so there was no large-scale equipment.

Of course, it is mainly because in the end times, humans have moved underground and production capacity is limited.

Because industrial manufacturing in modern society requires exchange of resources with the outside world, even for a country like China, which is the world's number one manufacturing country, when the end of the world comes and trade channels with the outside world are cut off, many things will not work.

The former world leader, the United States, is mainly based on finance, its local manufacturing industry is basically hollow, and it is "isolated overseas", which makes it even more tragic.

Even before the end of the world, many countries cannot even produce agricultural films for farming.

Jiang Jianguo had actually played with drones before, but he had not played with such sophisticated ones. He had played with the kind used for agriculture.

Nowadays, there are very few young people farming in rural areas, and most of them go out to work. Therefore, large-scale farming groups such as professional cooperatives have emerged. Some of them have bought drones to apply fertilizers, spray pesticides, sow seeds, etc.

When Jiang Jianguo is free, he will go to those professional cooperatives to do odd jobs. Otherwise, he really can't make much money in the countryside.

Then he also had a blacksmith shop, where he occasionally repaired kitchen knives, sickles, hoes, etc. for the villagers to supplement his family income. He also bought a tractor so that he could help people plow the fields and tow things for a fee.

Although he has only one daughter, the expenses for her education, food, clothing, etc. are still quite high. In a year or so, she will go to college, which will be another huge expense.

If he does well in the exam, it will be fine. The tuition fees of famous universities like 985 are relatively low, and there are scholarships. If he does not do well in the exam, he will go to a private undergraduate school, with tuition fees of to yuan, or even to yuan a year. How can a family like his afford it?

Therefore, Jiang Jianguo was under a lot of pressure and sometimes couldn't sleep at night.

He also thought about working in a place with better economy, but he was worried about his wife and daughter at home. His wife and daughter are as beautiful as flowers, so he never went out. Now that he is older, he will not go out anymore.

As soon as the bounty was issued and Li Xiang invited him, he was very interested, so he studied the drone very hard.

The drone hovered high in the sky, looking down from the air, and the scenery captured was very beautiful, a different perspective from the past. Li Xiang edited a video of a snowy mountain village viewed from the air, and added the ethereal and melodious "Spring Courtyard Snow" BGM sung by Jiang Caier, and posted it to his self-media account.

Once released, many fans liked it.

Since it is a light drone, its flight height does not exceed 120 meters, and there are no airports or military facilities nearby, there is no need to report it.

Besides, when submitting the bounty hunter registration, you fill in the relevant information of the drone, and once it is reviewed and approved, it is equivalent to reporting it.

Li Xiang and Jiang Jianguo also tried out the flying distance of the drone. When the store owner introduced it, he said that it uses enhanced RF communication and the distance can reach ten kilometers.

After trying it, I found that as expected, we flew to Leijiagou, eight kilometers away, and there was still signal.

Then, Jiang Jianguo suddenly became excited and hurriedly called Li Xiang: "Come and see, there are wild boars invading Leijiagou, and they have started to catch them!"

Li Xiang ran over to take a look and, sure enough, in the camera, there were about seven or eight wild boars wreaking havoc on a vegetable field in Leijiagou, pushing the cabbages everywhere, making a mess. Then, Leijiagou's "professional pig-catching team" surrounded them with iron nets, sticks, spears, steel forks, hatchets, pig-killing knives, etc.

There are relatively more young people in the other team, about four or five of them, and they are much stronger than Li Xiang's team.

"The one with a similar physique to Yao Ming is Lei Lao Hu's eldest son, Lei Jiaming. He has a younger sister named Lei Xiaohui. Last time, your great uncle said he would introduce you to her. Wait until the New Year when she returns home, go meet her." Jiang Jianguo pointed at a burly man on the screen and said with a teasing tone in his voice.

Because he had met Lei Xiaohui before. The Lei family was distantly related to the Jiang family and the Li family, but they had been separated for several generations and the social interactions were no longer active. However, when they met each other, they would still chat enthusiastically.

He knew that Li Xiang would definitely not like Lei Xiaohui. The two of them were not a good match in terms of appearance alone.

Lei Jiaming spotted the drone, looked over here and didn't pay much attention to it. He could guess that it must be a hunting team from a nearby village.

Li Xiang took a closer look at the big brother's figure and facial features, and suddenly shuddered. "Oh my god, this guy looks like Zhong Kui. How can his sister be pretty?" He shook his head suddenly and gave up.

Jiang Jianguo just laughed.

In fact, Li Xiang’s appearance and academic qualifications are not bad, and he was even an extraordinary person in his previous life. If it weren’t for his high demands, he would have had many opportunities to say goodbye to being single in his past and present lives.

Let’s not talk about anything else, just talk about his former colleague Chen Huanhuan, who once invited him to repair his computer. The two of them stayed in the rental house for a day, and then... nothing happened.

In his previous life, as the captain of the spearhead company and a fifth-level transcendent, he was also high and mighty in front of ordinary people. Many celebrities took the initiative to throw themselves into his arms and seek shelter, but he remained calm and maintained his pure yang body.

Li Xiang counted carefully and found that there were eight wild boars invading Leijiagou, including one male, two females and five cubs.

It is actually very easy to distinguish between male and female wild boars. They have many characteristics, such as the male wild boar's head is thicker, the neck is shorter and thicker, and there is a distinct collar. They usually have exposed fangs and look fierce and domineering.

Female wild boars are often smaller and lighter than boars, and their tusks are generally not exposed.

Then there are the differences in reproductive organs, and so on.

Autumn and winter are the mating seasons for wild boars, so boars usually stay in groups. On normal days, they may act alone.

If a wild boar is seen alone during this season, it is either because it was driven out or because it has not found a mate.

The leading wild boar weighed an estimated 300-400 kilograms, the two adult sows weighed about 150-200 kilograms, and the five cubs weighed between 30 and 60 kilograms.

Such a group of wild boars are not actually very strong, with only about three fighters. However, Lei Jiaming's team has more than a dozen of them, each holding a weapon, and there are more than a dozen hunting dogs assisting on the side, barking and shouting. Relatively speaking, the wild boar group is at a disadvantage.

However, even so, the wild boar led the herd to charge left and right, and Lei Jiaming's team could not resist for a while and were forced out of the gap.

The two dogs pounced on the boar, and then, tragedy struck.

One dog was lifted into the air just like Dahuang, while the other was knocked away by the two sows, rolling seven or eight meters before stopping. It couldn't get up and its waist was broken.

Oh my god, Li Xiang and Jiang Jianguo looked so nervous.

Li Xiang thought, why don't I go and help them. But it was broad daylight, and Uncle Jiang was still watching over there with a drone. If I could use my magical powers and get to the scene in five or six minutes, Uncle Jiang would be scared to death.

If you go too late, the show will have already left.

Fortunately, when Lei Jiaming saw that the dog was seriously injured, his eyes immediately turned red. He grabbed a spear, rushed forward with a roar, and fought with the boar for dozens of rounds. Finally, he stabbed the spear into its belly and pressed it to the ground.

But the wild boar kept struggling and almost knocked Lei Jiaming over. Several team members immediately rushed over to help Lei Jiaming hold the boar down. One of the guys was skinny but very tough. He took a sharp pig-killing knife and stabbed it in the throat.

The wild boar struggled violently, but as the fishy blood gushed out, it finally collapsed slowly.

Without the leading boar, the two sows and five cubs lost their backbone and fled in all directions, and were captured one after another by Lei Jiaming's team members.

Jiang Jianguo sighed: "Lei Jiaming is not as good as you."

After all, Li Xiang beheaded an armored boar weighing more than 600 pounds with one sword, while Lei Jiaming fought with an unarmored wild boar weighing more than 300 pounds for so long and ended up in a very miserable state.

Lei Jiaming used to study martial arts in a martial arts school.

Li Xiang sighed, saying that things are unpredictable, and the dog from Leijiagou also died heroically. Dahuang is no longer alone down there.

Those two dogs were definitely not going to survive. Even the one with a broken waist would have a hard time surviving unless Lei Jiaming was willing to spend a lot of money on surgery.

Animals usually do not have medical insurance, so surgery and medical expenses are extremely expensive.

"Uncle Jiang, we should act sooner." Li Xiang was already impatient. To hunt wild boars, it would be better to place the battle in the mountains. If a group of wild boars rushed into the village, it would be bad if so many old, weak, women and children were injured.

As the snow continues to block the mountains, wild boars will not be able to find enough food and will definitely move closer to human fields or villages. Wild boars have almost no natural enemies in the wild, and large beasts such as tigers that can catch them are already on the verge of extinction.

In the absence of natural enemies and if they can get enough food, omnivorous animals like wild boars can weigh far more than normal and live an astonishing 20-50 years.

"You keep an eye on the drone first, I'll go see how your Yuchengbo sled is doing." Jiang Jianguo was so excited after watching the battle between man and pig that he got up and left immediately.

Li Xiang used the drone to patrol the area around Lijia Village again. With the drone and infrared camera, he no longer had to go out in person in the evening.

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Jianguo and Li Yucheng each dragged a large sled to Li Xiang's house. Li Xiang also shared the good news with them, that is, the team had passed the review and the hunting qualification certificate, which Li Xiang had also downloaded to the computer.

"That's great!"

The three of them worked together to carry some necessary supplies onto one of the sleds, which was used as supplies, while the other was used to tow the wild boar.

In fact, the selection of the "bounty hunter team" was quite strict. Logically, a grass-roots team like Li Xiang's would usually fail the review because the average age of the team members was too old, the number of people was too small, and the equipment was average.

However, the staff member in charge of the review was so excited after watching Li Xiang's video of "cutting off a pig's head with one knife" that he shouted to his colleagues, "The fierce man who cut off a wild boar's head with one knife has appeared, and he has also signed up!"

"Haha, let me take a look. Oh, his name is Li Xiang. Looking at the photo, he is indeed the pastoral blogger."

"And the name of his team is 'Xiao Li Yi Dao', awesome!"

"He actually has a college degree, and he studied science. Oh my god, are all college students so fierce nowadays? Did he practice martial arts passed down from his family?"

"I don't know about that. Anyway, other teams can refuse to pass, but his team must! Even if he is the only one in his team, he must pass!"

"Yes, as long as he finds the wild boar, he can kill it with one knife, just like chopping melons and vegetables."

"If such a person were born in ancient times, he would definitely be a fierce general who could defeat thousands of enemies."

Everyone agreed unanimously and gave it to Li Xiang for approval.

The reviewers have great confidence in Li Xiang and feel that he may be one of the strongest forces in hunting wild boars this year.

Even the leader in charge of this work came over and nodded repeatedly, expressing his confidence in the performance of this operation.

The leader said, "If this young man named Li Xiang performs well and delivers the most wild boars, we will give him an award and give him an extra sum of money."

As soon as this opinion came out, subordinates began to draft the document according to the leader's intention. Finally, everyone held a meeting to discuss and finalize the draft.

There are four prizes in total: one special prize Hunter King, with a prize of 10,000 yuan; one first prize, with a prize of 5,000 yuan; three second prizes, with a prize of 2,000 yuan; and six third prizes, with a prize of 1,000 yuan. All of them will receive certificates of honor, and the prize money will be given to the team. As for how the team distributes it, they don't care.

As for applying for funds, there is naturally a corresponding process.

There is no need to worry about fraud, because if you rely on buying wild boars to improve your rankings, you will probably lose a lot of money.

Wild boars are so expensive nowadays that their recycling price is lower than the market price.

……

The sled and hunting certificate were in place, and Li Xiang and the other two went to bed early that night to recuperate.

Early the next morning, snowflakes were flying everywhere. Seen off by more than ten people including the village chief, the three men, wearing winter clothes, protective clothing, protective helmets, and winter gloves, each took a tool that suited them, held Huang in the left hand and the drone in the right hand, and headed into the mountains.

As they had not yet reached the deep mountains, the sled fully loaded with supplies was pulled by two hounds, and the other empty sled was pulled by one dog.

The dog also wore protective clothing, light camouflage, similar to a bulletproof vest, but the quality was definitely not as good as a bulletproof vest, because the price was not high, and there was no high-tech material inside, just ordinary steel plates lined inside.

Li Yucheng carried a shovel with him, which could be used to dig traps and as a weapon. He also carried a homemade bow and arrow. Jiang Jianguo held a three-pronged steel fork given to him by Li Xiang. As for Li Xiang himself, a Gaomi knife made entirely of steel was enough.

His Gaomi knife not only has a long blade and a thick back, but even the long handle is made of solid steel, so it weighs a full thirty kilograms.

To prevent slipping, Li Xiang wrapped a little finger-thick hemp rope around the all-steel handle. But Jiang Caier thought it was ugly, so she took it apart and used red and blue cotton thread to weave a "double diamond" style knot, and also attached an apricot-yellow tassel at the end to make it more solid and beautiful.

In addition, Li Xiang was wearing the professional photography helmet for individual combat. Anyway, he had three laptop power banks with him, so he was not afraid of running out of power.

"Be careful, this trip will take at least three or four days, thank you for your hard work!" Village chief Li Jinyu waved his hand, his eyes blurred with tears in the snow. Li Xiang and his team were all trying to protect the village.

　I'm setting sail on my V journey. Please give me your support. Thank you.
