Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.
Chapter 67 Night Talk
"Chang Kun, do you want any other jobs?"
Upon hearing this, Chang Kun and his family were stunned, staring blankly at Cheng Rongjiang.
A few seconds later, Chang Kun realized what was happening and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Uncle Cheng, are you saying..."
"Black bears are all about meat and fat, but aside from the gallbladder, their most valuable parts are their nose and kneecaps, and their four paws, which are really delicious."
Instead of talking about work, Cheng Rongjiang started talking about black bears.
When he mentioned bear paws, his face showed reminiscence as he picked up his wine glass and took a small sip.
The Chang family of three stared at Cheng Rongjiang without responding. They didn't care whether the bear paw tasted good or not; they were only thinking about work.
"Both my research institute and Cheng Jie's police station have vacant positions, so the competition is quite fierce."
Chang Kun saved my life, and I thought, if you want other jobs, you can exchange them for the meat of the big black bear.
"This black bear meat is more than enough to pay for two jobs."
Upon hearing this, Chang Kun exchanged a glance with his parents.
"Uncle Cheng, what do these two jobs involve?"
"The Animal Research Institute is where they capture animals all over the country, which is perfect for someone like you who knows how to hunt."
"The work at the police station is mostly patrolling the streets and occasionally catching thieves or hooligans; it's not really dangerous."
Chang Kun raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard about the research institute's work.
He didn't want to find a job; he just wanted to live a stable life hunting to support his family.
If I can find my parents a job so they have something to do and can eat the rations, that's enough.
It would be great if my younger sisters could be sent to the city to study and learn something.
But when he heard that the research institute could capture animals all over the country, he was very excited.
These past few days, while searching for wild boars and hunting black bears in the deep mountains, he has come to deeply appreciate the barrenness of this mountainous region.
There are plenty of small animals like rabbits and pheasants, but really few big ones, and they're too hard to find.
If you could go to other places, like the mountains, such as Northeast China at this time, you would be able to hunt with ease using your own system.
Seeing her son remain silent, Liu Meifen grew a little anxious.
With something this good, why even think about it?!
If it weren't for his son saving Cheng Rongjiang's life, he wouldn't have revealed the work quota information.
"Xiao Kun, what are you thinking?"
"It's settled then. Big Black Bear will be changing jobs. We'll leave this to Uncle Cheng. Thank you, Uncle Cheng!"
Chang Kun poured Cheng Rongjiang a full glass of wine and toasted him.
Chang Dashan and Liu Meifen quickly raised their glasses as well.
As dusk fell.
Everyone at the table had eaten and drunk their fill.
The little girls had already finished eating on the kang (heated brick bed) and were looking at their comic books, carefully drawing lines with crayons to depict the little figures inside.
The Cheng family was about to take their leave and were preparing to unload the large black bear and place it in the Chang family's courtyard.
Such valuable items should not be taken back beforehand, neither out of courtesy nor reason.
Chang Kun quickly stopped him:
"Uncle Cheng, please don't trouble yourself. My brother Cheng Jie's face is already red from drinking. Why don't you stay here tonight?"
Cheng Rongjiang turned to look at his son and gave a wry smile.
This son is good in every way, except he can't hold his liquor.
If it weren't for his poor alcohol tolerance, he would have been more than just a minor director of the Drum Tower Police Station.
Cheng Jie's face and neck were bright red, and he was already staggering.
He doesn't usually drink much, but he had to drink a few glasses as a gesture of respect because Chang Kun saved his father.
After just a few drinks, he felt a little dizzy.
Chang Dashan also came over to persuade him:
"Brother, it's too late now, it's not safe to drive, why don't you stay at home for the night?"
Seeing her older brother looking so drunk, Cheng Min felt a little embarrassed and hid behind her father, glaring at her brother.
Cheng Rongjiang hesitated a few times, but eventually agreed.
Of all these people, only Cheng Jie can drive, and given his current condition, it's really worrying to imagine him driving at night.
That night, Cheng Rongjiang and Cheng Jie slept on the small kang (heated brick bed) at the far east end.
Cheng Min and several young girls slept on the east kang (heated brick bed).
Chang Kun and his family of three slept on the west kang (a heated brick bed).
Chang Kun and the others were exhausted from dragging the black bear for half a day, and after drinking some alcohol in the evening, they quickly fell asleep.
Liu Meifen tossed and turned, unable to sleep, feeling as if she were dreaming.
So, the whole family is able to work in the city?
Everyone can become a city dweller now?
I was angry and upset about Chang Kun losing his job a while ago, but now my son and his whole family have moved to the city.
Things are changing so fast!
She was a little angry listening to her son and husband snoring.
These two! Such a big thing as going to the city for work, how can they still sleep!
I tossed and turned for a long time, unable to fall asleep.
She decided to get up and keep an eye on the big black bear in the yard, making sure no one stole it.
I tiptoed into the main room, and before I even stepped out, I heard someone whispering on the east kang (heated brick bed).
"Sister Xiaomin, my older brother is so nice. He took us to catch seasonal birds and even bought us peach cakes."
This is Chang Qing's voice.
"And meat buns too," Chang Mu chimed in.
"Candy...sweet!" Little Xiu always followed her older brother around, asking for milk candy.
"Your older brother is so nice! Did he buy those comic books and crayons too?"
Cheng Min kept her voice low. Her father and older brother next door were already snoring, so they probably wouldn't hear her.
"Yes, the picture books are so interesting, and my older brother even tells us stories."
"They even gave us headbands with bunny ears on them, all pink and so cute! My brother said you can't find them in the city!"
"There's also a rabbit toy, that's so much fun, let's play with it together when it's light."
Guests have come to visit, and the little girls are so excited they can't sleep, boasting about the things their eldest brother gave them.
"Your older brother is such a good person, I'm sure many people like him, right?"
"I...I love the big pot the most!" Xiao Changxiu said, getting up and raising her hand.
"I like it better!"
"Me too!"
Chang Qing and Chang Mu also hurriedly got up.
My older brother has been feeding them delicious food and bringing them fun toys every day these days.
He wouldn't let them dig for wild vegetables under the scorching sun; he's the best older brother ever.
"Then... besides you guys, who else likes him?"
In the darkness, Cheng Min's face was a little shy and hot.
The young girls couldn't see through Cheng Min, nor did they understand the meaning of her words.
"Mother also likes my eldest brother. She praises him at home every day."
"Dad also likes my eldest brother. Dad likes the wine that my eldest brother buys the most."
"Is there anyone else?" Cheng Min's voice was barely audible.
"I understand, and that sister-in-law too."
Chang Qing tilted her head and thought for a moment, recalling the scene she had secretly seen yesterday where her older brother and that older sister were under a tree outside.
"What sister-in-law?" Cheng Min's heart skipped a beat.
"That's the woman who was watching the black bear in the yard today."
Cheng Min recalled that Qin Meiru's image appeared in her mind.
"Who is that person?" Cheng Min's voice lowered, her tone tinged with bitterness.
"I heard she's our sister-in-law, but I don't know her."
"Okay, I got it. Go to sleep."
Cheng Min paused for a moment, then rolled over, facing the wall, her eyes staring into the pitch-black night.
