The timeline system has gone awry; they insist that steamed buns are a magic pill.

"Wild boar? Did you really shoot a wild boar?"

Someone shouted, and everyone nearby ran over.

"It really is a wild boar. And it's quite big, probably two or three hundred pounds?"

"Of course, it's definitely that big."

"You're really capable, headhunter, you're incredibly skilled."

Everyone's eyes gleamed with joy. They wondered if the wild boar would be divided among them. If it was, they could at least get half a pound or a pound. Who wouldn't want to eat meat?

"Qingde, this wild boar wasn't hunted by Uncle Headhunter."

Li Qingzhu proudly pointed to the wild boar's neck. "See? Third Brother chopped off the wild boar's neck with a shovel. When Third Brother caught up with the wild boar, he first chopped off its leg with a shovel, and then almost chopped off its neck with another shovel. The wild boar was instantly..."

"Third Brother?"

"You're saying it was Li Laosan who did it?"

The women, including Big Foot Sister-in-law, who had just been rushing over, gasped in surprise, looking at Li Qingqiu in disbelief. "You're not lying to us, are you?"

"How could this be fake?"

Li Qingzhu was displeased. "Besides, when we were hunting wild boars, Uncle Headhunter and the others hadn't even arrived yet."

"real?"

Seeing Li Fulin nod, everyone looked at Li Qingqiu. This Li Laosan is getting more and more amazing. This is a wild boar. Lijia'ao hasn't caught a wild boar in three or five years.

"That's really impressive."

"I never expected Li Qingqiu to have this skill. Today, I heard Aunt Liu talking about Li Qingqiu hunting wild boars, and I even laughed at her. Who knew she was really capable?" Li Qingde's wife whispered to her sister-in-law beside her.

"That's right, Aunt Liu and the others made fun of him all morning, but they never expected that he was really capable and actually caught a wild boar. Now this is going to be a good show." Li Qingrui's wife glanced at Aunt Liu and Big Foot Sister-in-law.

Aunt Han Caihua's face turned pale and then purple as she stared at the dead wild boar with its eyes wide open, unable to believe it. It was possible that Li Qingqiu had a good memory for digging bamboo shoots, as there were bamboo shoots wherever there were bamboo, but the wild boar couldn't be said to have been lucky.

"I..."

Before Aunt Liu could speak, Big Foot Sister-in-law and Wang Yulan and the others lowered their heads and withdrew from the crowd, making an excuse that they were digging for winter bamboo shoots because they couldn't bear to watch the excitement anymore.

"Sixth Aunt, don't go!"

"Yeah, look, isn't this a wild boar? Didn't you say that Li Laosan and his gang were just being sneaky? How did they manage to trick us into bringing back this wild boar?"

"Sixth Aunt, don't be in such a hurry to leave. Take a good look and see how big the wild boar my third brother hunted is!" After listening to the sarcastic remarks of Sixth Aunt and the others all morning, Li Qingmei finally felt triumphant.

"It's ridiculous to criticize others when you yourself are incompetent."

"You, I'm not talking to a little brat like you. I have things to do. I'm going to dig bamboo shoots." With that, Aunt Liu took off running, but she tripped and fell. Luckily, it was snow, so she got up and ran away quickly.

"Hahaha."

"Alright, stop laughing. Hurry up and drag the wild boar back to the brigade to deal with it."

Li Qingqiu was in a good mood. The system notified him that he had completed the Giant Pig Monster Trial and slapped the female cultivator in the face, earning him +5 points. His points had now reached an unprecedented 102.

With his fortune overflowing, Li Qingqiu planned to go back and properly organize a lottery draw.

"We're back now, time to divide the pork."

Li Qingzhu shouted smugly, and the eyes of all the onlookers lit up.

"Dividing the pork?"

They all wondered to themselves, "Can he really divide it?" They all looked at Li Qingqiu at the same time. Li Qingqiu smiled and didn't answer. He would tell Uncle Fuyuan and Uncle Fuluo when he got back.

As soon as they came out of the mountains, Li Fuyuan, Li Fuluo, and several brigade cadres, including Li Dajun, came to greet them.

"Good lad, you actually managed to hit him."

Li Fuyuan patted Li Qingqiu on the shoulder. This kid's really lucky; the deputy captain of the treasure-hunting team really made the right choice. "He's quite tall, probably two or three hundred pounds?"

"It will weigh at least 250 jin."

Li Fuluo glanced at the wild boar. It was so big that normally, he wouldn't even be able to run away, let alone fight it.

"Uncle Fuyuan."

"What's wrong?"

"What does the brigade plan to do with this wild boar?"

What are your thoughts?

Li Fuyuan looked at the wild boar; if it was properly processed, it would probably yield over two hundred jin of meat, which could fetch over a hundred yuan if sold.

"It's rare to hunt a wild boar, so I think we should all be happy about it."

Li Qingqiu said with a smile, "Now that we've killed the wild boar, we should divide it among ourselves. Everyone should remember their own favor."

"You dare to say that, kid? That's over a hundred yuan."

Li Fuyuan glared at Li Qingqiu, realizing that the plan was not worthwhile.

"Uncle, we can never earn enough money. Besides, we've made some money digging bamboo shoots. Now that it's snowing heavily, we should get some meat for the villagers to eat to help them recover. Digging bamboo shoots will also give them energy." After Li Qingqiu said this, Li Fuyuan and Li Fuluo exchanged a glance.

"Alright, we'll do it your way this time."

Li Fuyuan slapped his thigh. "Fu Luo, you take stock. Each family gets one jin (500g), and the treasure hunting team also got credit for hunting wild boars. How should we distribute the spoils? You figure it out."

"Time to go back and divide the pork."

Upon hearing this, Li Qingzhu shouted loudly, and all the villagers watching cheered excitedly. They were eating pork! No matter what kind of pork it was, each family would get a pound, and they wouldn't have to pay.

Who wouldn't be happy? The young people were incredibly excited along the way, and with the addition of clusters of little potatoes, it became even more lively. There were few thirteen or fourteen-year-olds in the brigade because of the famine back then, but there were still quite a few children under the age of ten.

Before they even reached the brigade headquarters, more than twenty little brats were already following behind the wild boar, squealing and yelling, "Wild boar! Big wild boar! Share the meat!" They were all incredibly excited, and some were even running home with glee.

"Grandma, it's time to divide the pork."

"Mom, it's time to divide the pork."

Li Xianshu was one of them, but she called out a little differently. "Grandma, Grandma, Uncle San has come back from hunting a big wild boar..."

"What?"

Shi Lanhua was chopping reeds when she heard the news. She threw down her machete and ran out of the yard. When she saw the wild boar hunting team, she quickly ran over and grabbed Li Qingqiu. "Look at you! How old are you? Don't you know anything? Wild boars are easy to hunt, but what if you get hurt? You, you!"

Shi Lanhua didn't look at the wild boar, but instead looked Li Qingqiu up and down. Seeing that he was alright, she patted her son a few times and complained, "This third son is too bold."

"Second Aunt, Third Brother is really something, back then..."

Just as Li Qingzhu was about to boast about Li Qingqiu's great achievements, Li Qingqiu kicked him in the butt. "Get out of here, Mom. It's nothing, isn't it? Look how big this wild boar is. When we divide the meat later, everyone will get some."

"Eat meat."

The children cheered excitedly at the prospect of meat being distributed and eaten. In an instant, all the members of Lijia'ao Commune were preoccupied with the thought of distributing and eating meat, and they were all incredibly hungry. This year, due to the drought, many families had to supplement their pigs' rations.

The pigs at the brigade's pig farm have also been replaced with feed from the government's grain repurchase program. The brigade doesn't plan to slaughter any pigs this year, so it's difficult for everyone to even have a bite to eat. If the brigade doesn't slaughter any pigs, the commune members won't have any meat coupons, so who would be willing to buy meat?

"Go away, go away, get out of here."

"Don't touch it."

One by one, the little kids started reaching out to touch the wild boar, and Li Qingbing and the others carrying the pig kept getting bumped by them. "Go home quickly and call your parents to come and collect the pork."

"Uh-huh."

This tactic worked wonders. Li Qingqiu saw that most of the children had run home, with only a few remaining. "Xiao Yan, why don't you go home and call your mother to come and get the pork?"

"My mom went up the mountain to dig for winter bamboo shoots."

Where's your grandma?

"My grandma went too."

Xiao Yan kept her head down, but her eyes were fixed on the wild boar, fearing that her grandmother and mother were not in the brigade and she would not be able to get the wild boar meat.

"Oh, okay? Then you can take it back yourself later, alright?"

"Um."

Xiao Yan nodded vigorously. The little girl had messy yellow hair and was small in stature, about the size of a kindergarten student, but she was actually seven or eight years old.

"I'll cut you a good piece of meat later."

Li Qingqiu rubbed Xiao Yan's head.

"Third Brother, hurry up."

"They're here."

Li Qingqiu quickly followed and arrived at the brigade headquarters. The wild boar was being carried down, and the old butcher, who had just received the news, was waiting with his butcher knife in hand. "First, boil some water. The wild boar's hair needs to be scalded thoroughly with boiling water, otherwise it will be difficult to clean."

Pig bristles are a valuable commodity these days, so you should definitely scrape them carefully. After collecting and drying them, you can sell them for money. Also, there are often pig bristle quests that can be exchanged for feed coupons, and you can even exchange them for meat coupons.

"This wild boar probably weighs 300 jin (150 kg), so it shouldn't be difficult to get 200 jin (100 kg) of meat from it."

The old butcher stroked the wild boar. "What's wrong? Missing a leg?"

"Hehe, Uncle, let me tell you, this is Third Brother..."

Li Qingqiu was at a loss for words. This kid always brags about his great achievements to everyone he meets. "Alright, enough of that."

"Third brother, don't worry about it..."

Fine, Li Qingqiu decided to ignore it and went to the brigade headquarters, where Li Fuluo was discussing how to distribute the wild boar meat. "Of the six of you who went in the first wave, you are first-class according to your merits, and you should be able to get at least twenty catties of pork."

"Alright, Uncle Fu Luo, how about this, I'll take ten catties of pork plus a pig's stomach, and give me three pig's trotters too."

Li Qingqiu casually remarked that wild boar stomach is a good thing, but it's not appreciated these days, and pig's trotters are even less so, since they don't have any meat and are considered scraps.

"Okay, the other five people each get five jin, what do you think?"

"No problem, what about Uncle Headhunter and his team?"

"Three jin, I guess."

Cut it in half. Li Fuluo's distribution plan was acceptable, with each commune member receiving one jin (500 grams). Li Qingqiu originally wanted to say that his own family could skip it.

"Is Fro all set up?"

"Alright, this kid has ordered ten catties of meat."

"Okay."

Li Fuyuan patted Li Qingqiu on the shoulder. "Sit down, I'll tell you about today's bamboo shoot digging."

"How is it?"

"We brought back a batch at noon, about 700 or 800 jin. Although a lot of the soil was frozen, there were many people who went, so overall it was pretty good. We can probably dig another 500 or 600 jin this afternoon," Li Fuyuan said with a smile on his face. "With these 1,000-plus jin of winter bamboo shoots, we've made up half of the shortfall in our brigade's oxen."

"Thanks to you, kid."

"Uncle Fuyuan, this is what I should do. After all, I am also a member of Lijia'ao."

"I've noted down your contribution."

"Stay for dinner tonight; the wild boar meat is really chewy."

"Never mind, I'm tired after a long day, I'm going to go back and get some rest."

"Alright, let's drink again tomorrow."

As the group left the brigade headquarters, the wild boar had already been scalded with boiling water. The old butcher began to scrape off the hair, gut, and clean the internal organs. If this scene were to happen in later generations, children would probably cry their eyes out.

But now the whole litter of babies is overjoyed; their eyes are practically sparkling.

They all stared at the wild boar, waiting to get their share of the meat. The little kids were simple-minded; they were busy dividing the meat, roasting it, and eating it, their mouths watering.

"Xian Shu".

Li Qingqiu waved to Li Xianshu, one of the little children.

"Third Uncle."

"Want to eat meat?"

"Mmm, I want to eat it."

"Okay, we'll stew some meat for dinner tonight."

"Um."

After the meat was almost distributed, the group that had dug for winter bamboo shoots returned. Everyone heard that the team was going to distribute pork, and when they heard that Li Qingqiu had brought it up, everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Li Qingqiu.

"Divide the meat."

"When each family heard their name called, they came up to collect their meat."

The scorekeeper shouted, and the noise in the entire brigade headquarters grew even louder. Everyone stared eagerly at the wooden board cutting the pork into small pieces, wishing they could just grab their hands and start cutting.
