The whole mountain is my hunting ground

For more than half a year, Zhao Youcai's mood has been very depressed.

The fundamental reason lies in his only "treasure" son Zhao Jun.

It's not that Zhao Jun is not excellent, but that Zhao Jun is too excellent.

Isn’t there an old saying, Thirty years ago, you should respect your son if you look at your father, and you should respect your father if you look at your son thirty years later.

To give a simple example, Zhao Jun goes to a canteen to eat. No matter when, even if Zhao Youcai is not around, the people in the canteen must take care of Zhao Jun as if there is a leader inspecting him.

This is to respect the father and the son.

But Zhao Youcai was just a cook, or a master chef in a good way, but outside the forest farm gate, to outsiders, he was still a cook.

Most of his influence is in the forest farm, including the four family areas of Yongan, Yongsheng, Yongfu and Yongli.

But Zhao Jun is different. Not to mention that the forest farm inspector has the power. The key is that Zhao Jun has become more and more famous in the past six months.

Leaders of some nearby small forest farms came to Yong'an Forest Farm as guests. The director of the cafeteria introduced them to Zhao Youcai as the master chef of the cafeteria. Those people just gave Zhao Youcai a smile and handed him a cigarette.

But one time, when the leaders of Hongqi Forest Farm came to Yong'an Forest Farm to visit and study, they happened to catch up with the news about the establishment of Bingcheng Zoo. Looking at the majestic Siberian tiger in the newspaper illustration, everyone started talking about it at the wine table. .

Then Zhou Chunming said that the master chef who cooked this meal for us is from the same family as the young hero who captured the tiger, and they are the father-in-law. When the leaders of Hongqi Forest Farm heard this, they clamored to see Zhao Youcai.

When he saw Zhao Youcai for the first time, the director of Hongqi Forest Farm said something that surprised everyone present.

The field manager smiled and asked Zhao Youcai, "Master Zhao, are you Zhao Jun's father?"

Everyone was surprised. Zhou Chunming didn't say Zhao Jun's name just now. How could the commander know so clearly about this.

It turns out that Hongqi Forest Farm is not far from Yongxing Brigade. Moreover, a small forest farm like theirs cannot compare with Yongan Forest Farm, which makes the director of Hongqi Forest Farm, Yu Xuewen and Tao Dabao, a head shorter than Yu Xuewen and Tao Dabao.

Since Zhao Jun captured the tiger, the spring hunt in 1987 has become a topic of conversation between Yu Xuewen and Tao Dabao after drinking. Whenever they drink with outsiders, they have to talk about how brave and fearless the militiamen of their Yongxing Brigade are. Of course, it is also necessary to praise Zhao Jun.

As time passed, even though many people had never seen Zhao Jun, they also knew that there was such a good young man in Yong'an Tun.

The director of the Hongqi Forestry Farm respects Zhao Youcai as a son respecting his father.

If this kind of thing were to happen twenty years later, Zhao Youcai would definitely be awesome. But now, Zhao Youcai feels a lot of pressure and losses.

The pressure is high because of fame; the losses are even greater because of profit.

Zhao Jun became famous by hunting, and the former first gunner of Yong'an Tun was Zhao Youcai.

Like before, when there were wild beasts that hurt people around forest farms and villages, Zhao Youcai would always be asked to take action.

There is always a reward for beating such a maiming beast. For example, the production brigade is given work points and food, while the forest farms and family villages are given money.

Zhao Youcai and Zhao Guofeng had a very good personal relationship. For many years, the village would reward them with ten yuan. Zhao Guofeng helped Zhao Youcai hide it and only said he would give five yuan.

In this way, Zhao Youcai made a lot of private money from it.

But now, in these ten miles and eight villages, Zhao Jun is recognized as the number one person who runs mountains and fights sieges.

I have to say, this is not easy.

After all, since ancient times, there is no second in martial arts, and the people who are fighting all love to brag, and they will not be convinced by each other at all.

Just like Zhou Chengguo in the past, although his marksmanship was superb, Zhao Youcai never convinced him.

But Zhao Jun is different. His achievements are all achieved with one sword and one shot. He only wanted to capture the tiger and the pig-hunting god. Except for Zhao Youcai, no one in Lingnan, Lingxi, and Heiji provinces could disobey him.

What makes Zhao Youcai even more angry is that when he went to Yongsheng Village to hunt leopards, his in-law Zhou Chunming told Zhao Youcai at the wine table that this year, Yong'an Forest Farm would not use Zhao Youcai for taxidermy.

At that time, Zhou Chunming said it tactfully, saying that Zhao Youcai was also responsible for the canteen. Without him, half of the workers in Yongan Forest Farm would go hungry.

But there is not only Zhao Youcai as a cook in the canteen, but also when collecting specimens a few years ago, the forest farm was not worried about the workers going hungry.

In addition, the task of collecting specimens this year fell on Zhao Jun. Can Zhao Youcai not understand this?

The waves behind the Yangtze River push the waves ahead, and wealth is photographed on the beach.

Compared with hunting wild beasts that can injure people, taxidermy is the better job. Not only does it give you paid leave, but it also provides rewards.

There is a lot of oil and water here.

They compete not only for fame but also for money.

That's why Zhao Youcai was so persistent in beating the leopard to death to prove that his sword was still young.

But in the end, not only did he come back frustrated, but he also spent eighty yuan on it. When I get home, I have to participate in labor reform, do laundry and cook.

What Zhao Youcai couldn't accept the most was that it was not only like this in the field, but also in Yong'an Tun.

Last month, Zhao Youcai met Zhao Guofeng on his way home. Zhao Guofeng said that when he went to the village for a meeting today, the township head specifically mentioned to him that after the snow fell this winter, Zhao Guofeng asked Zhao Guofeng to help him prepare four bear paws, Eight roe deer and two wild boars.

In previous years, this job fell on Zhao Youcai's shoulders. But that day, Zhao Guofeng said that the township chief asked Zhao Jun to give him these specimens by name.

The township chief has already spoken, what else can Zhao Guofeng say?

After Zhao Youcai heard this, he was so angry that he had to appoint someone to hunt a mountain animal. Could it be that Zhao Jun's hunting was better than others?

With no source of income, the private money he had worked so hard to save was confiscated, which made Zhao Youcai very distressed.

But if Zhao Youcai is sixty years old this year, then he will give up and live his life at home like Xu Changlin. When the time comes, with such an outstanding son as Zhao Jun, he will have no worries in his old age, and he may be able to dominate the family like Tao Fulin.

But he is only forty-five this year. He is in the prime of life and has not yet given up his throne.

Therefore, even if he is the nominal head of the family, Zhao Youcai cannot be ceded to Zhao Jun. Moreover, he still has to fight!

That's right, just the short walk from the courtyard door to the room door made Zhao Youcai make up his mind.

Tomorrow morning, I have to see Mr. Lao Jiang off, so I don’t have time. But the day after tomorrow, I must go to Zhang Lifu. When he goes up the mountain, he should go to the mountain shacks and cellars to ask the old mountain dogs and ask them if they know where there are wild beasts like leopards and lynxes. haunt.

Back in the house, Zhao Youcai sat on the kang, leaning against the kang cabinet without saying a word.

At this time, Wang Meilan was cutting noodles in the outer room and talking to Zhao Jun about what Jiangzhou had just told him.

After Zhao Jun heard this, he asked Wang Meilan, "Mom, do I still need to go there tomorrow morning?"

"You don't have to." Wang Meilan said, "Your dad and I will go in the morning, and we'll go in the evening."

"Okay." Zhao Jun chatted with Wang Meilan for a few words and then went into the house to see Zhao Youcai.

"Dad." Zhao Jun smiled and greeted Zhao Youcai, but unexpectedly, Zhao Youcai turned his head to the side.

Zhao Jun was startled and thought to himself: "Why is this so awkward again? When I gave the money two days ago, I was still happy."

But despite thinking this, Zhao Jun walked up to Zhao Youcai, pulled up a four-legged and eight-pointed stool and sat down, and then asked Zhao Youcai, "Dad, I remember that you have beaten a red dog before."

"Huh?" Upon hearing this, Zhao Youcai immediately raised his head, looked at Zhao Jun and asked, "Did you encounter that thing today?"

"Yeah." Zhao Jun nodded, then shook his head and said, "I knew it was the red dog, but I didn't look at the shadow."

"Ha!" Zhao Youcai raised his head and said, "That thing is not easy to fight."

Zhao Jun didn't know where Zhao Youcai's pride came from, but he was his father after all, so Zhao Jun just smiled and then asked: "Dad, I heard people say that red dogs are more powerful than wolves. Really? False Yes? However, we have red dogs here, but no wolves."

According to the mountain runners in the Northeast, wolves do not live in the mountains and forests, but only move around in the fields. Jackals live in mountains and forests, so the two cannot come into contact at all.

"Yes, there are no wolves in our mountains." Zhao Youcai suddenly sat up and approached Zhao Jun and said, "There are wolves in Da Liang Dian to the west."

At this point, Zhao Youcai wanted to show off, so he said to Zhao Jun: "You are young and have never seen many battles. I remember when I came here, and they still ate from a big pot. There was an old man in Liangdianzi. The gunners killed a wolf, but the result was that a pack of wolves were eliminated and the village was surrounded. Then the village sent vehicles and asked us gunners to kill the wolves..."

"Well." Zhao Jun interrupted Zhao Youcai before he could finish his words, and then said: "You are the one who beats me the most, right? Dad, that's it, when you beat me and I don't remember anything, you Just tell me."

"Go to the other side!" Zhao Youcai glared at Zhao Jun and said angrily: "You kid, what do you know? You have seen a lot of things. I have eaten more salt than you for several years. "

"Isn't this nonsense?" Zhao Jun lowered his head and whispered: "If you don't eat salt, then you won't be a white-haired daughter."

Zhao Youcai vaguely heard something about salt and women, and thought that this little brat must not have said anything good about him, so he immediately said angrily: "What did you say?"

"Nothing, nothing." Zhao Jun said, "But Dad, you have told this story almost eight hundred times. Don't tell me, even my sister can memorize it."

After saying that, Zhao Jun turned to look at Zhao Hong, who was playing with Zhao Na on the kang, and shouted: "Second sister, please tell me about the time our dad beat wolves."

When Zhao Jun called her, Zhao Hong curled her lips in disgust and said, "I won't tell you. Ever since I was a kid, I've been sick just listening to it."

"You stinky girl!" Zhao Youcai gestured angrily at Zhao Hong, but it was just to scare the little girl, but Zhao Hong hid behind Zhao Na, pushed his little sister out, and said, "Little sister, let's Brother wants to hear the story of dad fighting wolves."

"Beat the wolf..." Xiao Zhao Na blinked her big eyes and said to Zhao Jun: "Once upon a time, there was an old hunter in a village... I can't remember his name. Kill a big bad wolf and peel off the skin. Now, the meat is stewed..."

"Okay, okay, go ahead and play your game." Zhao Youcai waved his hands and drove his little girl away, then looked at Zhao Jun with an annoyed look on his face and said, "I'm going to tell you something you haven't heard of today. "

"Hey, dad, please tell me." When Zhao Jun heard this, he immediately became curious, because he knew that if Zhao Youcai didn't talk about hunting, it would be because he was not outstanding and faceless. Otherwise, he would not say less.

Just like the past when he was hunting tigers, Zhao Youcai fired a blank shot and never mentioned it when he came back.

"That year we hunted wolves in Liangdianzi and caught a mother and her son, which weighed seventy or eighty pounds. It just so happened that the son of the village secretary returned from his job and worked as a guard at the Xinxing Forest Farm next to him. When he was practicing Taoism, he was in the mountains. Use a red dog." At this point, Zhao Youcai seemed to have thought of something, pursed his lips, and said: "On the first day, the two groups were very stubborn, saying that it was the wolf who was more powerful, or the red dog. That's it. , just stuff these two things into a cage."

When Zhao Jun heard this and saw that Zhao Youcai didn't say anything further, he felt a little anxious and hurriedly asked: "Is it over?"

Zhao Youcai let out a soft breath and then said: "As soon as we met, the red dog ripped open the wolf's belly bag, and the wolf's intestines and belly dripped all over the floor."

"So fierce?" Zhao Jun found it hard to believe when he heard this.

The red dog’s scientific name is jackal, and some people also call them jackal.

That thing is not big, it weighs about forty pounds. Zhao Jun remembered that when Zhao Youcai was a child, all the jackals that Zhao Youcai brought back were skinned, and after draining the blood and emptying out the internal organs, most of the jackals were only about ten kilograms, not too big.

As for his strength, the weight of one wolf is almost as much as that of two jackals. They say jackals are ferocious, but wolves are not bad either.

Zhao Youcai secretly took a look at Zhao Jun. He felt that the boy didn't notice the clues, but he was still worried. He quickly changed the subject and asked: "Are you the jackal that you encountered when you beat the black blind man today?"

"OK."

After hearing Zhao Jun's promise, Zhao Youcai asked again: "Then the dog you brought with you didn't go out?"

"No." Zhao Jun responded casually: "There are leopards, but dogs don't dare to go."

"What!" Zhao Youcai's eyes widened when he heard the word "leopard", and he jumped directly from the kang in front of Zhao Jun.

This startled Zhao Jun so much that he leaned back, and the four-legged and eight-pointed stool under his butt took Zhao Jun down.

"elder brother!"

"elder brother!"

Seeing Zhao Jun fall, Zhao Hong and Zhao Na both jumped off the kang. Wang Meilan, who was cutting noodles outside, also dropped her kitchen knife and ran towards the house.

When Wang Meilan rushed into the back room, Zhao Youcai had already helped Zhao Jun up. While helping Zhao Jun pat the dirt on his body, he carefully observed Wang Meilan's face, squeezed Zhao Jun's arm slightly, and then looked kind and amiable. He said, "Son, why don't you sit still?"

Zhao Jun rolled his eyes at Zhao Youcai and said angrily: "Dad, you suddenly pounced on me and scared me. I thought you were going to bite me!"
