After finishing his meat skewers and drinking a bellyful of sweet mountain spring water, Chang Kun lay comfortably beside the spring.

Even the gods wouldn't trade this kind of life.

One of the two wild boars was sold to Wang Cuiqin, while the other was kept for the family to eat slowly.

My mother always complained that she was too wasteful with oil, but this time the oil extracted from wild boar fat is enough to fill several jars with the character "囍" (double happiness) on them.

From now on, I won't have to listen to my mother's nagging when I fry river shrimp and bean worms.

After resting for a while, just as I was about to get up and go home, suddenly...

A wolf and a sheep broke into the edge of the sensing range.

The wolf chased, the sheep fled.

At this moment, Chang Kun's sensing range had reached a distance of five miles.

The wolf and the sheep were at the edge of the sensing range, meaning they were currently five miles away from Chang Kun.

The mountain path is five miles long, and it would probably take one or two hours to walk there, since there are some places in the mountains where there is no road and you have to take a long detour.

Just when Chang Kun thought he had no chance with these two prey, he discovered that a wolf and a sheep were recklessly heading in his direction.

Five li... four li... two li...

Finally, the wolf and the sheep stopped a little over a mile away from Chang Kun, and the two faced each other.

The sheep stood there motionless, while the wolf leaped and bounded around it but could not get close.

What's going on? Chang Kun was a little curious.

It's only a little over a mile of mountain road, and it will only take half an hour to get there. We can't let these two prey escape.

After passing through mountains and forests and over hills, Chang Kun finally saw them clearly when he was three or four hundred meters away.

The sheep was grayish-brown all over, with horns on its head that looked like two bronze scimitars, drawing graceful arcs, and its hooves were standing on a steep rock face.

Is that a Himalayan blue sheep?

A look of delight flashed across Chang Kun's face; he hadn't expected to find such an animal in the north of the capital.

The Himalayan blue sheep is an extremely strong climber and can move swiftly on almost 90-degree cliffs. At this moment, this Himalayan blue sheep is standing on the steep rock face.

On the rock face, gray-black wolves leaped and bounded among the rubble, but dared not approach the rock face to catch sheep. After all, they did not have the superb skills of the argali sheep, and would surely fall if they jumped onto the rock face.

Looking at the filthy wolf, Chang Kun was a little puzzled, feeling that the wolf looked somewhat familiar.

Could it be the wild wolf he encountered the night he saved Zhang Pianxin and his son?

At that time, two of the three wolves were killed, and one escaped. Unexpectedly, it came here to make a living.

That's perfect, let's reunite these three wolves today.

The wolf was emaciated, its green eyes glaring, drool dripping incessantly onto the rock face. It could see the argali sheep so close yet it couldn't reach them, and the hunger burning in its stomach was driving it to the brink of madness.

Just as it couldn't resist the urge to risk falling off the cliff and jump down to catch the sheep.

*Smack!*

A gunshot rang out, and a spray of blood appeared on the mountain sheep's neck. The sheep rolled over and tumbled down the cliff.

The wolf shuddered violently, a deep-seated fear surging into its head.

Long ago, its companion fell to the ground after such a gunshot and never got up again.

From that moment on, it knew that the sound was a death knell, and that it had to run away as soon as it heard it.

Forget about eating the sheep, the wolf tucked its tail between its legs and turned to run away, but it felt a sharp pain in its neck, as if it had been hit by something.

Then, it heard the last sound of the wolf's life.

*Smack!*

The wolf collapsed instantly, twitched a few times, and then stopped moving.

Chang Kun approached leisurely from a distance, and without much effort, he caught a sheep and a wolf. He was really lucky.

Especially those blue sheep, judging by their size, they must weigh at least 100 jin (50 kg), enough to make several delicious mutton hot pots.

That wolf was so thin it was practically skin and bones; it probably didn't even weigh a few dozen pounds. I'll ask the Chinese medicine shops if they'd take it when I have time.

Upon arriving at the location, they put the wolf into their spatial storage and then proceeded to gut and bleed the ibex.

As soon as Chang Kun got close to the argali sheep, he was overwhelmed by the sheep's pungent smell and started sneezing.

Some people love this unique flavor and find it to be a rare delicacy.

Some people feel nauseous or even have difficulty breathing when they smell this odor.

Chang Kun's sense of taste is just like that of ordinary people. He can eat mutton, but he will dislike anything that is too gamey or muttony.

Although the smell of this rock sheep meat is quite pungent now, just slice it thinly, blanch it in a pot, and dip it in minced garlic and chive blossoms—just thinking about the taste makes my mouth water.

It's a pity there was no spicy hot pot base available at that time; otherwise, the taste would have been absolutely amazing...

With his mind a jumble of thoughts, Chang Kun went straight into the city after leaving the mountain.

When we were almost at the supply and marketing cooperative, we found a secluded corner and tied the wild boar, which weighed over 100 pounds, to the back of the bicycle.

Upon entering the supply and marketing cooperative, someone said, "Sister Wang, come out here for a moment."

Wang Cuiqin and Liu Meifen were wiping the counter when they heard this. They looked up and laughed, "Xiao Kun went up the mountain this afternoon? Did he already hunt a wild boar?"

Liu Meifen, who was standing next to her, laughed. She knew her son was capable, but the wild boars on the mountain weren't just waiting to be hunted. It would take a lot of time just to find them, let alone hunt them so quickly.

At this moment, Director Song, along with Xiao Yao and Da Liu, rushed out from the inner room upon hearing the noise: "Wild boar? Where's the wild boar?"

Seeing Chang Kun standing at the door, Director Song's eyes lit up: "Little Chang, you're here! You hunted a wild boar? Where is it?"

Recently, the pork supply in the city has become increasingly tight. Even he, the director of the supply and marketing cooperative, has to ask someone for help to buy some meat, let alone others.

Da Yao, Xiao Liu, and Wang Cuiqin all asked him to help them find someone to buy meat, but after asking around several times, they only managed to buy a tiny bit, not even enough for their own family.

Just then, they vaguely heard people talking about wild boars outside the door. This was alarming! Little Yao and Old Liu immediately jumped up and rushed to the lobby of the supply and marketing cooperative, searching everywhere for wild boars.

Hearing Director Song's voice and seeing Chang Kun nodding with a smile, Wang Cuiqin wanted to slap herself. How could her mouth be so talkative, saying that the people in the inner room could hear her talking about wild boars?

Now, a lot more wild boar meat will be divided up!

She forced a smile and said, "Director, there's no wild boar. I was just asking Xiao Kun if he's hunted any wild boars lately..."

Director Song glanced at Wang Cuiqin, then turned to look at Chang Kun, and laughed loudly a few times: "Little Wang, you've been working at the supply and marketing cooperative for several years, but your ability to make up lies hasn't improved much."

"Xiao Yao and Da Liu, you two go outside and see if there are any wild boars." He instructed the two people beside him.

Before long, the two men carried the wild boar into the lobby of the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Wow, this wild boar is quite big! Xiao Chang, you're amazing!"

Director Song chuckled a few times and gave Chang Kun a thumbs up.

In the past two months, the fish and meat that the family ate was often sold or given away by Chang Kun at half price. As a result, the people in the supply and marketing cooperative took good care of Liu Meifen and were especially fond of the Chang family's young girls.

Chang Kun just smiled. The wild boars have been delivered; how to distribute them is up to the supply and marketing cooperative to decide internally.

Looking at the trembling flesh on the wild boar, Wang Cuiqin was filled with regret.

She pounced on the wild boar, covering its head with her hands, shouting, "Director, the boar is mine! The boar is mine!"

Chang Kun: ...

Sister Wang has gone mad for pork; she has no idea that the wild boar had just finished its business and hadn't even been washed...
