There are also some other seasonings, such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, etc.

Even Gu Cheng gritted his teeth when he saw this, thinking that he had lost out! White sugar, brown sugar, White Rabbit, and cotton are all in short supply. They are sold out as soon as they are put on the counter. These are all in stock.

Especially alcohol and cigarettes. High-end alcohol and cigarettes are snatched up as soon as they arrive. Now they dare not put them on the counter. What Gu Cheng takes out now are all reserved by others. But now in order to eat meat, he can only let these old friends wait. Who told them not to have meat?

As for how to deliver the meat, Chen Zhiguo said that the supply and marketing cooperative's car would take the selected items and drive to the woods outside the city to wait, because it would be too conspicuous for the villagers to transport the meat into the city like this!

Old Gu thought about it and it made sense. The pork was placed in the carriage of the supply and marketing cooperative, covered with canvas. Who could see it? If they were to use a flatbed cart to haul it here, it would probably be snatched up by the swarm of buyers before it even reached the supply and marketing cooperative. Don't let that happen, he would have worked in vain and not even see a single pig hair, and even step on some pig shit!

After making an appointment to meet at the grove outside the city at 4pm, Chen Zhiguo happily went home! He still had to go back to cook for the two foodies!

Although he was a little tired, seeing his sister eating so happily, Chen Zhiguo felt that his tiredness was nothing!

When they got home, Chen Xiaoli was playing with her new friends Xiaoyong and Xiaojun in the yard. There were many things to play with, such as skipping rope, jumping squares, hitting sandbags, etc. Seeing Chen Xiaoli's sweaty face, as well as Xiaoyong and Xiaojun's thin and pale faces, Chen Zhiguo hurriedly called them into the room and arranged for them to wash their hands and faces first. After they finished washing, he took out his treasured picture book and showed it to them!

Chen Zhiguo didn't stop them from playing outside, but, Xiaoyong and Xiaojun didn't know if they had eaten breakfast yet? Even if they had, they would have used up all their energy running around in the yard. Didn't he see the sweat on Chen Xiaoli's face? She must have been running for a while. Let them take a break, it's just in time for lunch!

When Chen Zhiguo was making lunch, he heard Chen Xiaoli shouting, "Brother, brother. Come quickly!"

Chen Zhiguo thought something had happened and ran out of the kitchen immediately, "What happened?"

Then, Chen Xiaoli took Xiaoyong's hand and said aggrievedly, "Brother, they want to go home. My mother told them to have lunch here, but they didn't listen and wanted to sneak away!"

Xiaoyong and Xiaojun lowered their heads. Chen Zhiguo walked over and said, "From now on, when your grandma goes to work, you can come over to have lunch. But, this meal is not for nothing. Do you see the vegetable garden? When spring comes, you can come over to help with the farming. Is that okay?"

"But it's still a long time before spring, so we won't be eating for nothing?" said the elder brother Xiaoyong.

"Then go pick up some firewood every day for burning at home. That's okay, right?" Xiaoyong and Xiaojun were immediately happy to hear that they could work in exchange for lunch. Before going to work, their grandmother specifically reminded them not to eat other people's meals for free and to go home quickly when it was time for lunch. However, the two brothers believed that if they could work in exchange for meals, their grandmother would definitely agree!

So, Chen Zhiguo discussed with Xiaoyong and Xiaojun and decided to get a small bundle of dry branches every day, but Chen Zhiguo also agreed that they must be able to carry them themselves and not too much. Also, they must pay attention to safety and not climb trees, but only pick up those on the ground!

Xiaoyong and Xiaojun nodded quickly and agreed. Children at this age are very strong, and it is normal for children of this age to help with housework!

At this time, Wang Meihua also came out of the room with an old piece of clothing in her hand. Chen Zhiguo asked why he didn't see her when he got home!

Wang Meihua pulled Xiaoyong into the room without taking off his clothes. Instead, she put the clothes in her hands directly on him!

Wang Meihua saw Chen Zhiguo coming in and explained, "Xiaoyong's clothes are too thin and there is no cotton at home, so I just altered your old clothes!"

The clothes are still a little big for Xiaoyong. Long-term malnutrition has made the two brothers thin and short!

When Xiaoyong wore Chen Zhiguo's clothes, the hem of the clothes covered his buttocks. The sleeves were still a little long after Wang Meihua altered them. Of course, Wang Meihua deliberately did not alter them to make them just right, a little bigger so that he could still wear them when he grew up. This was also a characteristic of this era!

Chen Zhiguo stepped forward and helped Xiaoyong roll up his sleeves twice. "Okay, that's perfect. You can wear it even when you grow taller!"

Seeing Xiaojun's envious eyes, he asked, "Mom, do you still have any old clothes at home?"

"And there's more! Your sister has a few old clothes that can be worn by Xiaoyong. I'll alter them this afternoon!" Wang Meihua said. Nowadays, no child cares whose clothes they wear. As long as they have something to wear, they won't be picky! Of course, many of Chen Xiaoli's clothes were altered from Chen Zhiguo's old clothes, which are just right for Xiaoyong!

Seeing that Wang Meihua had made all the arrangements, Chen Zhiguo gave his mother a thumbs up. Wang Meihua also raised her head in cooperation. What a proud mother!

Lunch was still cabbage and wild boar meat stew. Chen Zhiguo added some vermicelli in it. It was a cornmeal paste, and he continued to stick to cornmeal pancakes!

Chen Zhiguo saw that Xiaoyong and Xiaojun only ate porridge and pancakes, and did not eat any vegetables, so he took out a bowl for each of them, put two bowls of vegetables in them and put a piece of fat pork on each bowl.

"Eat vegetables, don't be shy! We shouldn't be so restrained. Play seriously when you play, work seriously when you work, and eat seriously when you eat. What's the point of eating without vegetables? You are so grown up, and you are still shy! It's not that I won't let you eat meat, but you haven't eaten meat for a long time, and your stomach can't bear it. You can only eat one piece of meat today! Wait until you get used to it, and then eat as much meat as you can!"

"I know, Uncle Zhiguo!" Xiaoyong and Xiaojun nodded repeatedly, swallowing their food. In fact, they were really upset. No one cared about them in these years. Although grandma cared about them, she was helpless because of her own poor conditions. What kind of care could she give them? It was good enough to be full!

I swallowed the food and the tears, choking silently! At this moment, my heart is warm!

Chapter 20 Going into the mountains again!

Chen Zhiguo didn't continue to pay attention to them, he just buried his head in his food! He had something else to do in the afternoon! After lunch, the three kids gathered together and whispered to each other. I don't know what they wanted to do, but Chen Zhiguo didn't care, so he let the kids play by themselves!

Chen Zhiguo ignored all this and went back to his room to read after dinner. For him, studying was the most important thing now. He planned to graduate early and arrange his diploma and job before the storm!

As for the rest, he didn't have any idea for now, but as a time traveler, he had to leave his own traces no matter what!

In the afternoon, sunlight shone into the room through the glass windows. Chen Zhiguo was immersed in reading until 3:30, when he packed up his books and prepared to leave!

The three children were silent. Chen Zhiguo looked around and thought that they had gone out to play. He guessed that they had gone out to collect firewood! They were really obedient. Chen Zhiguo said this for the children's face. He didn't expect that the two children really took it seriously!

He rode his bike out of the city quickly. There was a small forest about one kilometer away from the city gate. Chen Zhiguo parked his bike on the side of the road and began to wait patiently!

It was really inconvenient without a watch. Chen Zhiguo didn’t know the exact time, but he saw Gu Cheng getting off a car!

"Uncle Gu, you came in person!" Chen Zhiguo pretended to be surprised.

"If I don't come, who will know you?" Gu Cheng said unhappily.

Chen Zhiguo had no choice but to laugh. Then, two young men jumped out of the carriage and asked, "Director, do you want to unload the goods?"

Gu Cheng glanced at Chen Zhiguo, who quickly said, "Uncle Gu, just unload it in that forest!"

Gu Cheng directed the car to the edge of the woods, and the two young men began to get busy. While they were busy, Chen Zhiguo secretly walked into the woods and released the two wild boars in the space!

"Is it okay?" Gu Cheng asked.

"Of course it's no problem, Uncle Gu, come and see!" Chen Zhiguo led Gu Cheng to walk into the woods, "They are all very shy and dare not meet outsiders. Uncle Gu, look!"

As he was talking, Chen Zhiguo led Gu Cheng to the two wild boars. Gu Cheng looked at the two fat wild boars and felt relieved! To be honest, he had always been skeptical about Chen Zhiguo's words. He was too young and was afraid that he would be ineffective!

Now, what else can I say? The wild boars on the ground are the best explanation! After unloading their things, the two young men followed in. When they saw the two big fat pigs, their eyes were wide open. They were both short of meat and had been craving for it for a long time!

The two pigs, weighing more than 400 pounds, took some effort for the two young men, the driver and Chen Zhiguo to get them onto the car. The main reason was that Chen Zhiguo had no experience and had not prepared anything. The four of them could only carry the wild boars up by lifting their legs, which was not easy at all. But in order to eat the meat, the two young men burst out with energy today and carried the naked wild boars up on their hands and shoulders!

Gu Cheng didn't say much to Chen Zhiguo. He thought that since the people in the village didn't show up, they must be hiding somewhere nearby and watching. So he simply said that Chen Zhiguo should go to his office tomorrow, and then drove away. Chen Zhiguo looked at the pile of supplies on the ground and was secretly happy. He finally looked like a time traveler and could live a good life!

He put all the things on the ground into the space, and then rode back home slowly! Gu Cheng didn't ask him for the bicycle, so he played dumb and didn't say anything. After all, two wheels are much more convenient than two legs. He rode it first. If he knew that Gu Cheng had already regarded him as the designated son-in-law, he would probably return the bicycle immediately!

He is very happy now. As the saying goes, if you have food in your arms, you will not be worried!

. . . . . . . . .

As he expected, when he returned home, he saw two bundles of firewood placed at the kitchen door. These two children were really honest. Grandma Hu’s education was really good!

When I went back to the room, I saw the mother and daughter talking. Xiaoyong and Xiaojun were not there!

"Where are the two children?" Chen Zhiguo asked.

"Brother, they have already gone home and said they were going to cook for grandma," Chen Xiaoli replied.

"These two kids really went to the woods to pick up branches this afternoon. I asked them to have dinner here but they didn't stay," Wang Meihua also said.

"It's okay. If they don't come tomorrow, Xiaoli will go and play with them!" Chen Zhiguo arranged.

"Got it, brother!" Chen Xiaoli said happily.

The next morning, Chen Zhiguo came to Gu Cheng’s office. Gu Cheng was busy. When he saw him coming, he just motioned for him to sit down first and then continued to work!

Chen Zhiguo didn't say anything either. After seeing Gu Cheng drinking tea, he stood up and added hot water to Gu Cheng's cup, then sat down again and waited quietly!

Half an hour later, Gu Cheng finally finished his work, took out an envelope from his desk and threw it to Chen Zhiguo, "I'll give you the extra money and tickets, is that okay with you?

Of course Chen Zhiguo had no objection. These things were enough for him to use, and he didn't want to resell them!

Gu Cheng changed the subject and said, "If you have time, you should contact me more often. I just dragged the wild boar back and received a call. Now one and a half of it have been divided up."

Gu Cheng also had a headache. He didn't know how the news got out. He received calls one after another asking for the meat. His superiors had to give it some, and his peers had to give some to save his face. If he hadn't been so clenched in anger, this little bit of meat would not be enough to go around. While he was talking, Gu Cheng received two calls!

It's so annoying! These people are just like flies, staring at him! Now, he can only hope that Chen Zhiguo will think of a solution, otherwise the meat will really become a big trouble! It's offensive! Some people get the meat, and some don't, maybe they will hold a grudge against him!

Chen Zhiguo also smiled bitterly. There were only two pigs. Did he really have to go up the mountain? It seemed that he really had no choice but to go!

"Uncle Gu, I'll go this afternoon! But I want to trouble you for something. Can you give me a gun? I'll go into the mountains with them this time, and I'll give you as many guns as I can!"

"Gun? Do you know how to use it?" Gu Cheng asked doubtfully.

"My father is a retired soldier. My hometown is in the mountains. I have been playing with guns since I was a child!" At that time, the management was not very strict. Until the 1980s, I still remember seeing air guns for sale in the shopping mall!

"Okay, I got it. When you go there in the afternoon, come and see me!" Gu Cheng was relieved.

"Got it, Uncle Gu, I'll go back and prepare, and come back this afternoon!" Chen Zhiguo still didn't mention returning the car, and Gu Cheng didn't ask for it either. Both of them seemed to have forgotten about this matter. Anyway, Chen Zhiguo didn't want to smell the smell on the bus anymore!

There was nothing to pack when he got home, as all the useful things were in the space. Chen Zhiguo just grabbed a handful of candy and shared it among the three children. He watched them carefully put the candy into their mouths, smooth out the candy wrappers, fold them and put them in their pockets. This time, Chen Zhiguo understood what a great temptation candy was for children of this age. It can really be said that they could brag about eating a piece of candy in front of their friends for half a year!

Take candy wrappers for example, they are the object of their envy!

After saying that, Wang Meihua didn't care, but she was a little disappointed that no one was cooking! She continued to give the two children a piece of meat. It was too oily and it was really not a good thing for them. She could only take it slowly! Fortunately, Xiaoyong and Xiaojun were really sensible and didn't fight or grab. After dinner, they also knew to help sweep the floor and wipe the table!

In the afternoon, still in Gu Cheng's office, Gu Cheng handed Chen Zhiguo a long cloth bag! It was heavy!

Chen Zhiguo pulled it out and saw that it was a brand new Type 56 and a half rifle, with a bayonet on it!

On the coffee table in Gu Cheng's office, Chen Zhiguo skillfully disassembled the 565mm gun and reassembled it. Gu Cheng watched Chen Zhiguo's skillful movements and believed that Chen Zhiguo often played with guns. He took out a box of bullets and a small red notebook from the drawer of his office.

"Here are fifty rounds of bullets and a gun license! Be sure to be safe!" Gu Cheng warned. If there weren't a lot of people with connections chasing him, he really didn't want Chen Zhiguo to go up the mountain!

"Don't worry! Uncle Gu, I'm not going up the mountain alone. There are more than a dozen people in the village! Knowing that they can exchange so many things, they all want to get a few more pigs!" Chen Zhiguo could only make up a story. He couldn't say that he was going to the mountain alone? This was definitely not possible!

Without much chat, Chen Zhiguo was in a hurry to get on the road. He put the gun back into the cloth bag and set off. This time, he really planned to go into the mountain alone. With the space, he could hide in danger and sleep at night! Therefore, the dangerous environment on the mountain was not a big threat to him!

Riding all the way, it is a pleasure to ride a bike in this weather. My ears are frozen and my hands are numb, but fortunately, I don’t have a runny nose!

Instead of taking the road into the village, Chen Zhiguo came directly to the foot of the mountain at the fork in the road. The weather was cold and the villagers were all staying at home. There were no pedestrians on the road!

When they reached the end of the road, Chen Zhiguo put his bicycle into the space and started walking into the mountain!

At this time, the sky gradually darkened, but Chen Zhiguo had a flashlight, which illuminated the way to continue on his way. The nearby hills had been searched countless times by the villagers of Chenjia Village. There were no large wild beasts, so Chen Zhiguo could continue on his way with peace of mind. However, to be on the safe side, he still loaded his gun with five or six semi-automatic bullets, opened the safety and put them into the space, so that he could take out the gun as soon as possible!

In the silent forest, there are only the occasional chirping of birds and the crunching of snow underfoot! It is indeed terrifyingly quiet!

The tall mountains in the distance also become a little scary under the night!

Chen Zhiguo walked into the mountains with courage. It was not a good feeling to be alone. It was a little scary!

Chapter 21 Thrilling hunting operation!

Although Chen Zhiguo was not afraid of wild beasts suddenly running out, as he could still sense them with his own senses, the darkness and silence all around him did make him a little creepy!

Especially not long after entering the mountain, the pile of graves encountered were even more eerie and terrifying in the dark night! Fortunately, Chen Zhiguo knew that these were the ancestral graves of the Chen family. He immediately knelt down, kowtowed four times respectfully, and prayed in a low voice. Only then did he continue to move forward with confidence!

I don't know how long I walked, but Chen Zhiguo didn't feel tired yet. But according to the position of the moon, it was probably the second half of the night! Just when Chen Zhiguo was choosing a suitable place to rest!

There was a wolf howling in the distance! Chen Zhiguo found a slightly larger open space and entered the space. When he came out, he was still in the same place, unable to move! Just as he turned off the flashlight and prepared to rest, four or five pairs of green eyes surrounded him!

"Damn it, I didn't want to pay attention to you, but you still ran over here without knowing the consequences. Then don't go back!" Five or six hands appeared like lightning, without any hesitation. The two green eyes were the best target. Bang, bang, bang, bang, he fired four shots in a row, and the rest ran away!

Chen Zhiguo turned on the flashlight again and searched along the location in his memory. Four wolves were all shot in the eyes. Chen Zhiguo did not despise them and put them all into the space. There was also a lone wolf in the space that had been chopped into pieces by him!

Although he didn't want to eat the wolf meat, there must be someone who likes it. As long as it's meat, no one would refuse it! When they are starving, they can even gnaw on tree bark and eat grass roots. Why would they dislike this?

After putting them into the space, Chen Zhiguo directly skinned the four wolves. He didn't eat the meat, but he kept the skins. He took them back to his grandfather and tanned them to make mattresses or leggings. Grandpa and grandma will be warmer in winter!
