My 1995 Small Farm

 This is a good year.

 The harvest has been harvested and wheat has been planted, and everyone in and outside the village is still busy.

 Pick wild fruits, clean fish ponds, pick mountain mushrooms…

 Most of the people in the countryside have no fixed source of income except farming, and they can do whatever they want to make money.

This year, Chen Ling finally managed to find so many "free money" businesses in the mountains. How could they afford to rest?

 Not to mention people from my own village, people from other villages, other villages and towns also ran to Chenwangzhuang when they saw the sky.

 Either driving a cart, or riding a bicycle with a basket, and some even came carrying a load.

 They are all wild fruits, wild products and the like.

Although it is not as lively as a market or a temple fair, people come and go every day. People come and go on the dam from morning to dark.

 As a result, there are far fewer waterbirds in the reservoir than before.

 In such an atmosphere, and seeing the money earned every day falling into his own hands, even Chen Ling's family was affected.

Second uncle Wang Qingzhong and his wife were not willing to have any more leisure time, so they hurried back from Fenglei Town.

My uncle Wang Qingwen and his wife also came over to see my parents.

Wang Cunye now doesn’t have to collect herbs from all over the mountains and plains, nor does he have to go to the fields as much. His health is much better, and his legs and feet are also agile.

The two brothers knew that their parents enjoyed more happiness on their sister's and brother-in-law's side than on the mountain, so they were happy to let them live here.

　　As for the two daughters-in-law, they didn’t have the old couple to take care of their children, so they didn’t have any complaints in their hearts.

 My sister-in-law is very good in every aspect, and she will always think about them no matter what happens.

 In the past, the two old men always felt that it was not good to live in their son-in-law's house.

I'm afraid that people will say that my two sons are still living in my daughter's house. Is it because the son and daughter-in-law are not filial?

 Old people are more concerned about this.

 In addition, people in my hometown and the village are always gossiping, saying that my son-in-law is rich and they are unwilling to go back to live in his house.

 It sounds very angry to the second elder, and it doesn’t make sense to reason with others.

 Fortunately, I looked away later.

I told my two sons that since their brother-in-law is determined to make money with them, the whole family should work together and work together.

Make money quickly in the past two years, so seize the opportunity to make money.

　　What if things don’t get so good in two years? It’s time to regret it again.

 In short, let’s talk about practicality first, and then talk about anything else.

Wang Qingwen and Wang Qingzhong now have a tacit understanding. In addition, Wang Qingzhong brought back the money he earned during the National Day. After the two brothers divided the money, it was even more exciting.

Think about everything.

The two brothers have reached a tacit agreement that whoever is more convenient can come to Chenwangzhuang to help his brother-in-law.

 It doesn’t matter if my parents don’t go home for the New Year at the end of the year.

 If you have money, celebrate the New Year every day.

 In fact, does Wang Qingzhong earn a lot of money?

 There aren’t many.

 But the people in the mountains are afraid of poverty.

 Having hope, it is earned by one’s own hands. This is so encouraging.

This time I came to Chenwangzhuang, and when I saw the atmosphere in the village again, my heart became even hotter, my dear.

   Â 's while you're still young, make more money as soon as possible, otherwise you'll end up like Li Xian, your brother-in-law's villager, who could barely afford to raise his baby in the first two years.

 The second uncle and his wife came back and took up residence.

Liang Hongyu’s family left because it was time for the two fat boys to go back to school in the city.

 After being sent back, Qin Rongxian and Liang Hongyu also returned to the county town, but they still came to the village every day.

Sometimes I help with the kids, sometimes I pick up eggs, herd cattle and sheep, and sometimes I follow Wang Qingzhong and his wife to study the various new spicy noodles they have made.

It was under such circumstances that Chen Ling entered the mountains.

 The support at home is open.

He came out on the pretext of releasing the leopard.

 The family is worried because this time he not only brought the weasel, but also Heiwa, Xiaojin, and Erbaldi.

We went to the city a few times, and now the bald man can deliver messages to people.

 After trying it a few times, Chen Ling found it novel and fun.

“Huh? Fugui came back so soon? Did the leopard go away again?”

 Chen Ling was walking on Nanshan and met Chen Dazhi and Chen Baoshuan, who were cutting bamboo in the bamboo forest.

 “Yeah, let it go.”

 Chen Ling responded and walked over.

"You really let it go. We all thought you had to keep the leopard at home like a tiger."

 Chen Dazhi said while slashing the bamboo with his knife.

“I would like to keep one, but my family won’t let me. They say I have to feed it raw meat every day for fear of hurting people. It’s different from the tigers that grew up in the zoo.”

 Chen Ling told the village that the leopards were released into the barren mountains near Tenghe Township.

There is a big river there and there are few villages, such as Kinmen Village and Taohuagou beside the Jinshui River.

There are few people, and the large forest behind stretches to the west, which is suitable for releasing wild animals.

 Otherwise, if you put it in a nearby mountain, the leopard might come back.

 It has this record.

 Everyone is worried.

If Chen Ling doesn’t want to raise him, he’d better stay away.

This morning I just went out for a formality. Not to mention Tenghe Township, I didn't even leave Changle Township, so I just threw the leopard into the cave.

Along the Jinshui River, we herded horses and eagles, bought some fried dough sticks and steamed buns, and then came back.

“Why are you cutting bamboo? You’re not picking those wild fruits…”

“Get some bird cages, pen holders and other small gadgets. Your friend Lao Zhoute likes them and says they can be used as gifts.”

Chen Baoshuan said with a smile: "Take the bosses and let me and Brother Dazhi get some peace charms, and carve them with turtle kings, cranes, fish and shrimps and so on."

 “Okay, this is more profitable than picking fruit.”

 Chen Ling's eyes lit up and she patted him on the shoulder, "It seems that your skills have improved again, Baoshuan. Even someone as picky as Lao Zhou can take a fancy to your gadgets."

“Hehe, I learned it from Brother Dazhi. Besides, those people are also here for you. People are willing to spend money to buy our things, and many of them do it because of your face.”

Chen Baoshuan said.

 “Look, Fugui, this baby can talk a lot now.”

Chen Dazhi chopped down a bamboo and raised his thick eyebrows.

 Chen Ling laughed and said, "Yes, I can see it too. Baoshuan can make people happy."

It made Chen Baoshuan blush and feel embarrassed.

 Actually, these are what he really thinks.

If Chen Ling and Chen Dazhi hadn't taken care of him, the village wouldn't have been so quick to accept him if he had done those things before.

Of course he also knows that the two of them are just joking with him now.

The three of them chatted and joked for a while, then the two of them teased Heiwa and Xiaojin, and then went down the mountain carrying the bamboo.

Chen Ling continued to wander in the mountains with the dog.

In order to reassure his family, he did not go to Beishan this time and came directly to Nanshan.

 There are deer in Nanshan.

 There is a lot of prey.

Although there were wolves coming down the mountain a few days ago, they are not in the north after all. Next to the Daqin Mountains, there are relatively few large beasts.

 Plus there are two big dogs following, so the family is not so worried.

Chen Ling doesn't care about this.

There are a lot of prey in the mountains this year, and it’s also nice to visit Nanshan.

Anyway, sooner or later he would have to go around to the Daqin Mountains in the north.

“Except for grazing cattle and horses, we don’t go much deeper here.”

 Chen Ling murmured in his heart, suddenly thinking that when he came here, he saw a large group of swallows flying over the reservoir dam.

“Oh, yes, all kinds of birds in the cave have reproduced several times, so we need to release a lot of them.”

I haven’t paid attention to the birds in the cave for a while. When I threw the leopard into the cave, I realized that there were so many birds by the lake. It was amazing.

There are few threats to survival in Dongtian.

 They reproduce very exaggeratedly.

 They can be cut off almost continuously throughout the year, one nest after another.

 Before Ruirui was born at home, for a while, Chen Ling especially liked to go out and shoot birds with a slingshot.

 Once you are familiar with shooting a slingshot, you will be able to use it skillfully.

It won't be like the first time, just knock off the bird's head and make it miserable.     In many cases, it can save the bird's life.

 At that time, Chen Ling was stuffing whatever birds he caught into the cave sky.

 It doesn’t matter whether it’s pretty or not.

　What sparrows, swallows, earth swallows, gray horseshoes, turtle doves, magpies, crows, tits...

 Having it all.

 Put it inside when beaten.

 When we were building a farm later, we even used bird nets to catch birds for a while.

There are more types.

"There are few threats in the cave sky. Let them go outside and let them breed new races. At the same time, let the birds of prey in the sky also have a taste of delicious food."

 Chen Ling thought interestingly, and then he was like a magician on the stage, conjuring pigeons.

 Walk a few steps and wave your hand to release a large flock of birds.

 Put it away while walking.

Let them fly everywhere above your head.

The two Heiwa and the weasels looked around curiously. Their eyes were unblinking, they were licking their tongues, and they were moaning. They must have wanted to rush forward and catch two of them.

 “Look at how greedy you are.”

 Chen Ling laughed, then caught two turtle doves and threw them first to Heiwa Xiaojin, then took out two more, one for the five weasels to share, and the other for the two bald men to eat.

 Feed the little things.

Chen Ling continued to move forward, waiting for the birds in the cave sky to be released.

 He began to throw some fish and shrimp into the mountain stream again.

“Birds are released to improve the genes of local populations, and fish and shrimps must not be forgotten.”

 Chen Ling is now slowly letting go of her hands and feet and really enjoys doing this.

 In the past, he had little knowledge and always felt that if he gave away too many good things, outsiders would become suspicious if they were too conspicuous.

This idea is not wrong. You must be careful when guarding a huge treasure.

Later, after getting to know Shanmao and Professor Han, he slowly understood that his worries were a bit unnecessary.

 To put it bluntly, he knew too little at the time, and his worries were unfounded.

As he learned more and more, he discovered that many things also have regional characteristics.

 Just like Yangcheng Lake hairy crabs.

 There is also local yellow beef.

All have obvious regional characteristics.

  If we talk about medicinal materials, there are even more examples.

 In a word, these things develop slowly, and in many cases it can be summed up by the local environment.

 Deserts can have Jiangnan scenery, and many places in snowy areas have a Jiangnan climate.

 The Daqinling Mountains are rich in species and there are too many unknown things...

 So there is nothing to worry about in this day and age.

 While walking, release birds, fish and shrimps.

 Chen Ling also gets some fruits from Dongtian from time to time and eats them while walking, which is quite pleasant.

The only thing he wasn't very satisfied with was that there were a little less prey in Nanshan than usual. He didn't encounter any decent-sized herds of deer for half a morning. He only saw solitary barking deer and deer running away in the distance.

 These two gadgets are in small quantity, and Chen Ling is not very interested in them.

 It is more satisfying to attack the larger deer and wild boar herds.

 “Woof woof…”

Walking to a spacious stream, Hei Wa suddenly shouted twice to the other side.

Xiao Jin glanced quietly and followed Chen Ling's feet without saying a word.

 Chen Ling saw that the two dogs didn't react much, so he walked up to a higher place, squinted his eyes and saw a familiar figure running away in panic.

 “It’s that old wild boar.”

 Chen Ling smiled, "The scenery in Nanshan is good, but it's not as lively as the opposite. Come on, let's go north."

 Wade across the water.

Arrived on the west mountain, Chen Ling saw Hei Wa running to where the old wild boar was, picking up something in his mouth and running back.

"pheasant?"

 Chen Ling took a look and saw that half of the pheasant had been eaten.

It is not uncommon for wild boars to eat meat, but the neck of this pheasant...

“This is... the pheasant they saw a few days ago that only sucked blood but did not eat meat...”

Chen Ling picked it up and threw it back on the ground in disgust.

 The saliva of the wild boar is so smelly.

As soon as he threw it back to the ground and wiped his hands with the leaves, Xiao Jin, who had been silent all this time, started to whine softly.

 Chen Ling had strange thoughts in his mind at this time.

 Seeing Xiao Jin’s reaction, he asked Xiao Jin to lead the way and follow him.

 In the past year, Xiao Jin has become more and more calm.

 Normally barking loudly at home is rare.

 Generally, it will react this way when a big discovery is made.

Heiwa and the five weasels crawling on him were very confused, and they didn't seem to find anything different.

It is also true.

 The place with the small gold belt is far away.

 Traveling through the Xishan Mountains for a long time, heading west and north and even crossing the Shanzhong Lake, heading straight to the Daqin Mountains.

 Once around the mountain lake, Hei Wa had a reaction.

 Screaming eagerly and excitedly.

 He crossed ravines and streams one after another, and ran very fast on the hills, chasing after Xiao Jin.

Er Baldy, who had already flown out to investigate the situation, also flew back at this time, dropped a prey, and then circled down.

“Holy shit, half of a deer was chewed into such a miserable state... What did you discover?”

Chen Ling was so curious that he exploded with curiosity. A pheasant that sucked blood instead of eating meat, and a deer that ate half of it. There have been a lot of strange things in the mountains recently.

So he quickly chased in the direction of Xiaojin and the two dogs.

Chasing all the way, Chen Ling was familiar with the roads in the mountains, but this year not only were there more wild animals in the mountains, but the vegetation was also more prosperous, and he could not move as fast as the two dogs.

Chasing hard and slowly, we finally caught up.

 It went all the way to the Daqin Mountains.

 …

 A big mountain, a high and steep mountain. The footprints and excrement of wild animals are everywhere in the forest. The air in the forest is also very humid, but there is no fishy smell of wild animal dung. The air here is fragrant with vegetation.

The bright autumn sunshine shines through the dense forest, the light spots are flashing, and the birds are singing incessantly.

It can be said that the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant here.

After arriving here, Heiwa and Xiaojin slowed down, walking quietly and sniffing, as if they were hunting.

 Chen Ling was still wondering at first what was going on and how he could run so far.

Seeing the two guys like this, I quietly took the gun in my hand.

 But after following the two dogs around seven or eight times in this big mountain, they climbed higher and higher, and the mountain became steeper and steeper.

From a distance, I saw a herd of wild sheep walking down the steeply sloping hillside.

 In front of the wild sheep herd is a huge herd of deer…

Maybe it’s not one herd, but several deer herds gathered together, mostly sika deer with a few grass deer mixed in.

 Chen Ling could see the tall antlers of several big male deer.

 The deer and sheep were separated by almost ten meters.

 Chen Ling looked around and saw that the woods were blocking the way. Although the front was open, the deer herd was so large that he couldn't count how many there were at once.

But here are not just wild sheep and deer, but also mountain donkeys with their calves flopping down from the high mountain walls.

 Chen Ling also saw a furry head with golden hair and black markings that retracted among the dense leaves.

 It’s either a clouded leopard or a leopard.

Further away in the pine forest, there were also wolves wandering back and forth with small steps. First one popped up and looked around, and then a dozen of them appeared one after another, hiding and approaching quietly.

"what's the situation?!"

 “What the **** is going on?”

“Have they all become spirits and come here to hold an animal convention?”

This scene really shocked Chen Ling. No wonder the deer herd in Nanshan disappeared. When he came from the West Mountain, he didn't see any bigger wild animals. It turned out that they all came here.
