My 1978 Hotel

Chapter 124: Pork belly, mountain antelope, deer meat, too much game at once

"Dad, what did you say?"

Han Fuluo, who was dividing the pork, held the butcher knife with some uncertainty. "Did you replace the pork with pig stomach and big bones?"

"Yeah, Uncle Fu Luo, isn't that okay?"

"Okay, okay, of course it's possible. If you are willing to suffer a loss, what else can't you do?" Han Fuluo thought that the people coming from the city were really weird. They would exchange good meat for pig stomach and big bones. He really didn't understand.

But this is even better, everyone can share more meat. Li Feng was also happy to get a few pig stomachs and more than ten pounds of bones. "Good stuff."

"I want these wild boar tripes."

Wu Tong said, "Ten thousand."

Ten thousand yuan wasn't a small amount. A pig's stomach was worth a little over two thousand. Of the four pig's stomachs in Li Feng's hand, two were smaller and not worth ten thousand. "How about this, I'll give you two and I'll keep two."

My parents' stomachs aren't very good, and neither is Han Zhaoxia's either, so summer vacation is a good time to recuperate. He doesn't need this little money right now, and if Wu Tong hadn't been with him from the beginning, he really wouldn't have planned to sell it.

"Two sets, then two sets."

"Maybe I can get a few more pig tripes later."

Li Feng said with a smile, "I'll give you some more when the time comes."

As for the large bones, Li Feng planned to use some of them to make soup, and take the teeth back to the B&B as decorations. "Are you all going tomorrow morning?"

"Forget it, I'm tired and hot."

Wu Tong waved his hand and Qin Yue also shook his head.

"Where's my little brother?"

Li Feng didn't care. Although playing with guns was fun, climbing the mountain was very tiring.

"Next time."

Hunting is not like hunting in the mountains. It's like hunting twice a year. It's just tiring. There's no leisure and interest in hunting. "Okay, then you guys stay at home. Or you can go to the commune for a walk."

"Ah."

"I'll leave the little black donkey to you as well."

But I never expected that I would be very lucky the next day. As soon as I went up the mountain, I met a few muntjacs. There are quite a lot of muntjacs in the local area. They are not big, about 20 kilograms, about the same size as a deer.

There were two types, yellow and black. This thing would definitely be level one or two in the future, but now, it had no level. Li Feng fired five or six shots in a row. His marksmanship was truly remarkable. The system's simulated scenario training had a hit rate of 90% on moving targets.

This is a level that even top snipers may not be able to reach, and it really made a big splash.

"Alright, with your skills, you can participate in the militia competition and maybe win a big prize." Han Anbing praised Li Feng's high marksmanship while asking everyone to pick up the dead muntjac.

"Okay."

Don't tell me this is what hunting feels like today. Yesterday, we were busy looking for wild fruits, digging for kudzu vines, Huangjing, etc., which is different from today's large group heading straight for the mountains and forests to hunt. "I'm afraid you're going to regret it, little brother. Maybe if you follow us today, you can touch the gun."

"Brother Anmin, we found something good up ahead."

"What's the matter?"

Han Anmin asked hurriedly. Li Feng was also full of anticipation. Han Anyu pointed in the direction of the mountain ridge. "Anju and the others just found traces of wild sheep over there. It seems there are quite a few of them."

"Wild sheep?"

Li Feng muttered, "There's this thing here!" After arriving with the main group, Li Feng took the telescope and took a look. "Isn't this a mountain antelope? The four-legged beast of the south. This thing is a bit bigger than a normal sheep and slightly smaller than a cow. It's definitely not as big as the four-legged beast of the Qinling Mountains."

Don’t mention it, Li Feng has never eaten this thing. In later generations, he often saw this thing on the news, but at that time it had become a protected animal. If you want to eat it, it’s no joke. It’s popular on Douyin.

Wild game was generally only hunted by mountain dwellers and sold to wild people. These people were roaming around selling it, desperate for money and not risking their lives, let alone getting some game or even eating it at home. Li Feng had benefited from his father-in-law's influence, and had eaten a lot of wild boars, deer, and the like.

It was the first time he had ever seen a mountain antelope, and he had never eaten one before, but now was his chance. "The three on the left are mine." Li Feng found a good spot and prepared to shoot. Three was Li Feng's limit at the moment, and most people would be lucky to get one.

You have to know that at the sound of gunfire, whether it's a muntjac or a mountain antelope, they'll immediately take off running. They're very fast, giving you very little time to shoot. Li Feng relies on simulated scene training to achieve such a fast reaction, but of course three is the limit.

Even though he couldn't guarantee he could catch all three, two wouldn't be a problem. Han Anbing nodded and assigned tasks to the militia, each aiming at their own prey. "On the count of three, everyone shoot."

"one two three."

Bang bang bang gunshots rang out, and Li Feng slapped his forehead in annoyance. After killing the first mountain antelope, Li Feng quickly fired the second shot and hit the second mountain antelope. Unfortunately, the third one ran too fast, and even Li Feng couldn't react.

"Oh, one ran away."

"Hahaha, this is pretty good."

Han Anbing thought to himself, normally, if more than half of the fish escaped, let alone one, it would be normal. This time, he was lucky. "Let's go check on our prey. We've done a great deed this time."

Muntjacs are always too small. Compared to mountain antelopes, which are much larger, one muntjac is as powerful as seven or eight. "An Yu, go get some help! Hurry up! We need to get back to the dam and ask Uncle Dao to quickly deal with these wild sheep and muntjacs and distribute them."

Meat doesn't keep well in this weather. Without a refrigerator, it can only be distributed. Each family can pickle it or smoke it and dry it in the sun. This way it can be preserved. As for fresh meat, forget it. "Fengzi, you have made the greatest contribution this time. You will get an extra leg of lamb." "That's not a good idea."

"Okay, that's what I said."

Han Anbing patted Li Feng on the shoulder. Everyone saw Li Feng's contribution, and no one would say anything. When the time came, whoever spoke up would let him stand up. "Thank you, Anbing."

It was a good thing to have an extra mountain antelope leg. When we returned to Hanjiaba, Han Fuguo and others came over. When they saw the prey being carried back, they were all very happy, and the children were even more delighted.

This guy had meat to eat, but Li Muchen and the others who had just returned from strolling around the commune were a little depressed. "So much prey?"

"Okay."

Li Feng said proudly, "We're lucky today. We'll go back and make a pickled vegetable and deer antler hot pot later. If we add more chili peppers, it'll taste amazing."

"There are also mountain antelopes, which are rare creatures in southern Anhui. Usually we can only look at them, but today everyone can eat as much as they want." Li Feng patted the mountain antelope he had shot. It was quite big. I wonder how it tastes.

"cousin."

Wu Tong pulled Li Feng. "Can we take some back? There's so much meat, why don't we buy some?"

"Buy some to take back?"

It's not that it's impossible, but Li Feng is worried about causing trouble if he brings it back. "This thing isn't a big deal here, but I'm afraid it's not appropriate to bring it back."

"How about we take care of it and bring it back?"

"Skinning?"

Li Feng has seen a lot of skinned wild game such as muntjac, and he calls them beef and mutton, which look similar.

"Ah."

"Okay, I'll ask."

Li Feng still had quite a bit of money from his writings, and now, thanks to Little Black Donkey, he didn't need to buy a bicycle anymore, which made him rich. As he was talking, Li Feng arrived at the brigade, where quite a few people had gathered.

Especially the children, who don’t have to go to school now, are so happy. They have meat to eat, which is like celebrating the New Year in advance.

"Uncle Tomita, I have something to ask you."

Li Feng walked up to Han Futian and whispered.

"What's the matter?"

Han Futian was remembering the weights. He had to divide the food quickly when he was about to divide it up, otherwise there would be a commotion in every household.

"Uncle Tomita, I want to buy some meat."

Li Feng pointed to the freshly cut mountain antelope and deer meat and said, "I'll pay you the same as pork, in cash. Is that okay with you?"

"What's the price of pork?"

Han Futian put down his pen. The meat in the mountains was not very oily and had a strong smell. It was usually much cheaper than pork. "Do you really want to buy it?"

"Yeah, my cousins are here, aren't they? City folks don't usually get to eat wild game, and they heard we hunted quite a bit, so they're thinking of buying some to take back home," Li Feng said. "They're all pretty good, so this little bit of money isn't a big deal."

"Okay, how much do you want?"

"We'll definitely need about a hundred pounds."

"About a hundred pounds?"

Wow, that's tens of dollars! Okay, that's a good thing. I don't think anyone would object. After all, this money belongs to the team, and everyone can share some of the profits later. "Okay, I'll keep it for you."

This is a good thing, it's cash. For Hanjiaba now, even a few dollars are good, not to mention dozens of dollars. More money can be used to buy more repurchased grain and relief grain.

"Then I'll tell them."

Li Feng didn't expect that it would be so easy to agree. Alas, he was just worried that paying based on the pork price might be too little, after all, meat tickets were not required.

"Let's go get the meat."

Back in the courtyard, Li Feng said something to Li Muchen, Wu Tong, and Qin Yue. They all came to the threshing ground. The meat had already been divided. Li Feng handed over the money. The good guys gathered around and looked at the great unity.

"Fengzi, do you still want some meat? I'll give it to you."

"what?"

Li Feng was a little confused. It was not Wu Ye, but this meat was not delicious. Why was he not willing to take it? "Based on the price of pork, Wu Ye, if you are willing, I will help you with it."

"Okay, the pork price is pretty good."

Wow, Han Anju, Anyu, Dashou's sister-in-law, Big Foot Auntie and the others were all tempted. Each family would share two or three pounds of meat, which could be sold for more than two yuan. They could buy dozens of pounds of relief food, enough to feed the whole family for ten days to half a month.
