Rebirth 78: Hunting for Treasure in the Mountains, Spoiling My Wife and Daughter to the Heavens

In the past, a county party committee leader would pass away.

The entire team needs adjustments, rotations, and arguments.

Rights and interests can be fought for.

They all need to be divided up through internal negotiations.

This time, however, the entire county committee was very quiet, everyone waiting for Zhao Kaishan to take charge of the overall situation.

Only the people in charge of human resources and finance are constantly busy.

The rest of the Qian family members also became unusually quiet after Xiong Laoda got involved.

Without Qian Yunshan's protection, no one wanted to offend Qian Yunshan's once closest bodyguard.

Lu Weiguo had been stationed at the mountaintop tent for three days.

Inside the tent, after Lu Weiguo's persistent pleading, the items were preserved as evidence.

Instead, it became the place where Lu Weiguo and his companion rested.

"Hey guys, how's the catch these past few days? Any more game coming down from the mountains?"

Lu Weiguo sat in the middle, surrounded by the elderly, weak, sick and disabled people sent by the commune.

"Xiao Lu, it's no good. We haven't had much success these past few days. I don't know why, apart from that big cannon basket you shot down, we've barely even seen any rabbits."

This is different from the situation near our village!

"Yes! This is really strange. It shouldn't be like this. In our village, rabbits are practically jumping into the yards, but here they're all gone."

Two elderly men, covered in snow, sat cross-legged on the ground, puffing on cigarettes.

They were also frustrated after three consecutive days without any harvest.

After all, the whole family is relying on this large-scale hunting trip to have a good New Year!

This is probably the last time they'll go up the mountain before the New Year. With the few meat ration coupons they have, it's hardly enough for each of them to have a bite to eat during the New Year.

There isn't even enough oil to refine.

"So... you guys all want to hunt some game? Aren't you worried about the danger?"

Lu Weiguo replied with a smile.

The others don't know what's going on?

How could he not know?

The hillsides were covered in snares and Wangcai's excrement; even the hunting dogs had been listless for days, let alone the other animals.

The only reason that cannon basket was able to get in was because it was mindless and single-minded.

The other animals run as far as they can.

"Dangerous? How dangerous? Could it cause someone to die?"

One of the oldest hunters asked.

"Probably not. As long as we operate properly, the rewards will be directly proportional to the risks!"

Lu Weiguo spoke with great conviction.

He hasn't been idle these past few days either. After talking with Police Officer Liu, he kept comforting Wangcai.

While walking Wangcai, they unexpectedly discovered a large herd of wild boars behind two hills.

The smell was so strong, and it smelled like a giant wild boar.

Lu Weiguo didn't dare to get close either.

I learned from the forestry department that this herd of wild boars could come out of the deep mountains.

It's all because the forestry department made such a huge commotion.

The forestry conditions are good, the equipment is good, the weapons are good, and the workers are younger.

The hunting methods tend to be novel.

They set off blasts, used chainsaws, and even jammed a timber tractor, causing a bear to hide.

The area they were in charge of was in complete chaos.

This drove a large herd of wild boars to this location.

The group of forestry workers searched for a long time but couldn't find it.

Instead, it was Lu Weiguo who ran into him.

However, he did not make a fuss about it.

This is a life-or-death situation with Qian Yunshan.

He owed too many people favors, with Mrs. Chang being the first to owe him, and he needed to express his gratitude with a generous gift.

There's also the mother-in-law, and Huang He's group of younger brothers need to be appeased.

As for Zhang Benmo and Zhao Kaishan, they should also take gifts and go to visit them.

Although Officer Liu could "discard him after he has served his purpose".

Anyone with a discerning eye knows that it was all a joke, and the more they publicly portrayed their relationship as worse.

In reality, the deeper the ties of interest, the better.

At this time, what gift would be appropriate to present wild game?

It's time to have a serious talk with that pair of treacherous father-in-law and son-in-law who lack willpower.

"This is good news for Xiao Lu. Hunting is always risky, as long as no one gets killed!" one of the hunters said, glancing around timidly.

They chose not to stay in this tent because someone had just died there.

The older generation believed in ghosts and gods.

Everyone is marveling at how powerful these two guys are!

I'm not afraid to live here.

"We old guys can lend you a hand, we'll do whatever you say!"

As soon as this person finished speaking, everyone else agreed.

"Alright! Wild boar herd! Dare to take action? I've scouted the terrain; they've been wandering in a valley all day."

If we don't act soon, all the grass roots over there will be eaten, and we'll probably have to move on to another spot.

Just do it.

Lu Weiguo took out a large stack of manuscript paper from the items he had left behind.

Take a nearly burnt-out piece of charcoal out of the stove.

He blew on it and didn't mind the heat, then drew the location of the valley on the paper.

"Is this the mountain spring valley?"

According to the location mentioned by Lu Weiguo.

Soon someone figured out the exact location.

"Yes! It's that mountain spring valley, so it's a rare opportunity."

The valley of the mountain spring was later called Xinglong Mountain Spring.

It is the location of a natural spring formed by landform.

The spring water was clear, and in later generations it was contracted out to be processed into bottled water for sale.

Many city dwellers also frequently go to collect spring water to use for brewing tea.

The water quality is good and rich in minerals, which has even made it a tourist destination.

In this era, whether it's river water or well water you draw yourself, there are no pollutants in it.

There's absolutely no need for that much trouble.

This may be a necessary "side effect" left behind by the progress of the times.

It's neither good nor bad.

With the progress of the times, industrial development, and improved living standards, food and water safety will deteriorate as pollution increases.

While enjoying the benefits of technology, we inevitably experience these things as well.

Fairness and equality—nature has always been teaching us these things.

This is a principle that Lu Weiguo understood in his previous life, and it is also the belief that he has always adhered to as his business has become better and better.

The cycle of nature is inescapable; only by aligning ourselves with the natural world can we achieve sustainable development.

"Look here, because this is a living spring, this area naturally forms a half-frozen, half-thawed pool in winter."

"Let alone wild boars, even a person who goes in might not be able to come out. If you drive the wild boars in, isn't that the same as locking the door and beating a dog?"

"what?"

Lu Weiguo finished explaining his plan.

The group of traditional hunters stared at each other, their minds filled with the same question.

"You can do that?"

Yes!

That wild boar wasn't stupid. The moment it stepped in, it knew it was cold. Didn't it know to run away?

And how could such a large herd of wild boars be allowed to enter?

Thinking of this, everyone couldn't help but sigh in their hearts.

They're still young, their ideas are good, they have ideals, but they don't understand reality!
