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

"Yes! There are plenty more! I'll go get them for you right now, whatever you want!"

Upon seeing that Lu Weiguo had also shown interest, the men immediately became excited.

Yuan Mengjie, oblivious to the problem, even asked curiously about the price of the fox fur.

Lu Weiguo didn't stop him, but just kept observing the surface.

To be honest, the craftsmanship of this pelt is quite good, perhaps because of the weather here.

High temperature and humidity allow the fur to mature quickly, with only a slight amount of shedding.

This is why furs from the south are difficult to preserve.

No matter how you treat fur, the biggest problem is moisture.

Even the most expensive furs will be ruined if they get damp.

This is the situation in Shanghai.

The weather is damp every day.

Therefore, the fur cannot be preserved.

But that wasn't a big problem. What made Lu Weiguo so serious was that he had never seen this fur before.

Yes!

This is not a fox fur at all.

It's not a mink, but a weasel's fur, or even something that looks a bit like a dog.

"Where are you from?"

After watching for a long time, he finally couldn't help but ask.

But this is a major taboo in business, especially such a superficial sound.

They're all about one-off deals.

Asking someone is just asking them to cause trouble later!

Yuan Mengjie knew the ins and outs and was about to stop him.

But on second thought, Lu Weiguo definitely knew the ins and outs of this.

He stepped back and asked no more questions.

Only then did those men realize that Lu Weiguo was the one in charge among them.

"Young man, it's not convenient to talk about this. They're just farmers from around here. You wouldn't understand even if I told you."

The men exchanged glances and began to consider backing out.

"Alright then, let's discuss it further. Can you sell me this fur?"

"Just one?"

"Yes! I'll take one!"

Lu Weiguo nodded, and the other four people, without discussing it, made a "two" gesture.

"twenty?"

Yuan Mengjie then realized that the price was not right.

"Yes, yes, that's twenty. That's a very fair price. Look at the quality of our fur and the craftsmanship of the processing; it's top-notch."

This is the lowest price if you're only buying one.

Lu Weiguo pulled Yuan Mengjie along with a half-smile.

Tell her not to say anything more.

The problem with this price isn't that it's too high, but rather that it's too low.

In Northeast China, a fox pelt in this condition would fetch a high price.

The price actually drops in big cities.

It would be unreasonable if there were no problem with the fur.

Lu Weiguo readily took out twenty yuan, saw the four men off, and without eating, just played with it in his hand.

"Brother-in-law, what's this? Aren't you a hunter? Why did you buy this?"

Zheng Lin sat down next to Lu Weiguo and leaned over to touch him.

"Have you noticed the problem?"

"Problem? Aren't they all the same? What's the problem?"

Zheng Lin blurted it out.

"That's right." Lu Weiguo smiled and handed the fur to Li Xiulian through Zheng Lin: "Wife, take a look and see if there are any problems."

Li Xiulian examined it carefully but found nothing unusual. Lu Jiacheng, who was eating nearby, touched it and, without looking up, said, "This fur is a bit prickly. It doesn't look like a fox, nor like a sable; it looks more like a dog's!"

"My son is amazing! It really is a dog!! But not an ordinary dog, it's a raccoon dog's fur! Is that what you call it here too?"

As Lu Weiguo spoke, he looked at Zheng Lin.

Different places have different names for animals.

He didn't know how people in the south called this animal.

However, people in the north don't actually call it that; they usually call this animal a raccoon dog.

Birds of a feather flock together!

"A raccoon dog? Oh! I get it!!"

Zheng Lin stood up abruptly. "Birds of a feather! We all call it a raccoon dog, only the older generation calls it a raccoon dog or a stray dog!"

"Do you know where those people are from?"

"It should be Jiufeng Mountain, only the people there have the retroflex ending."

"Is it far? How about we go camping there sometime?" As soon as Lu Weiguo finished speaking, Li Xiulian pinched his waist through Zheng Lin.

Others don't understand him.

She doesn't understand yet.

They must be itching to go up the mountain to catch small animals.

And it's highly likely that it's the raccoon dog.

However, when others heard about camping, they jumped for joy.

They've even started planning their routes and what to bring.

After dinner, Yuan Mengjie went back to work.

Lu Weiguo repeatedly instructed her not to accept any furs or leather goods.

In the afternoon, only one family of three helped tidy up the house, while the rest of the people went to prepare camping supplies.

"You're going hunting? You didn't bring anything, is that alright?"

While cleaning the room, Li Xiulian asked curiously.

She wouldn't stop him; after all, she would support her husband if he said he wanted to pluck the moon from the sky.

"I've never seen that thing before, but it's similar to other canine wild animals, nocturnal."

Besides, these things hibernate, and it's the season when they come out at night to find food, so they shouldn't be hard to catch. Let's set a few more traps and see what happens.

Lu Jiacheng was shocked to hear that he was going up the mountain again.

That was so exciting!

I even have the energy to do chores now.

That night, the family of three slept in this small single room.

Lu Jiacheng slept in the middle.

They couldn't even do something inappropriate for children.

Fortunately, Li Xiulian was very satisfied with her hard work last night.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder, but if it only happens once, it's hardly a new marriage.

. . . . . .

The Su Family Villa.

Zheng Lin rummaged through drawers and cabinets inside the house.

The younger sister at the door was eating ice cream, and when she saw her trying on clothes, a hint of provocation appeared in her eyes.

"What, you saw someone you like again? Didn't you promise Mom and Dad you wouldn't date any other women?"

The two sisters look exactly alike, even their hair is the same length.

However, the younger sister's eyes were exceptionally alluring.

"Zheng Yu! It's none of your business! Mind your own business!"

"I can't control you, but Dad can. If you don't tell me, I'll tell Dad!"

Zheng Yu stuck out his tongue and made a finger-hooking gesture, but he used his middle finger instead.

"you!!"

"Tell me about it, sis. I've met all your ex-girlfriends, so let me see what this one looks like too."

Zheng Yu ate the ice cream in one bite, then went over and fed it to Zheng Lin mouth-to-mouth.

"Get away from me, don't bother me. This is different. She has a husband, and I don't want to do anything with her."

"I have a husband!!"

Zheng Yu immediately perked up!

"Are you guys going camping tomorrow?! I want to go too! I want to join in the fun!!"

Zheng Lin retaliated with a kick.

However, Zheng Yu took the opportunity to open the door, just about to call his parents.

Zheng Lin stopped him.

"You can go, but don't say anything out of line. I really don't have that kind of relationship with her."
