The whole mountain is my hunting ground

Zhao Jun lived for more than fifty years before he was reborn. Some of his memories have long been blurred, but he clearly remembers that it was the autumn of 1992. He chased the roe deer over the mountains and hills until they reached the 61 and 62 forest farms. On the way, I met Pang Xiazi, Pang Gaoming, Pang Gaosheng and his son from Yongshengtun.

Pang Zhendong, nicknamed Pang Blind Man, lost one of his eyes and had a glass ball instead, but he was still a well-known ginseng leader.

Zhao Jun knew them and would chat with them when they met. Then, both parties parted ways and went their separate ways.

But not long after, Pang Zhendong and his family all moved away. I heard they went to Bingcheng and bought a building.

That was in 1992, and it seemed like a fantasy that people from the mountains could go to the city to buy properties.

Later, someone spread that Lao Pang's family had become rich. Not only did they buy a house in the city, but they also bought three houses!

Not only that, Pang Zhendong's two sons also bought cars. How much money does this cost?

But how did their family get rich? People nearby said that Pang Xiazi was holding a mallet in the mountains and made a fortune by selling it at a sky-high price.

I don’t know if this is what Lao Pang’s family said themselves, or if it is the speculation of the folks, but it is definitely a fact.

Because everything happens for a reason, and Lao Pang's family doesn't do anything else. The only thing that can make his family rich overnight is Bang Chui.

Thinking of this, Zhao Jun could no longer lie down. He sat cross-legged on the kang and pondered this matter. After so many years, Zhao Jun could vaguely recall some things. During that encounter in 1992, Zhao Jun said at the time that he was here to chase the roe deer. But Pang Zhendong said that the three of them, father and son, came to collect mountain products.

In Zhao Jun's impression, Pang Zhendong also specifically said what they were here to pick, but it has been a long time and Zhao Jun really can't remember clearly.

But the target that Pang Zhendong told Zhao Jun at that time must be an ordinary mountain guy, so Zhao Jun didn't take it to heart after hearing this.

Moreover, he was focused on hunting at that time, only thinking about catching roe deer, and did not care about other people's affairs.

But now think about it, Lao Jiaxin is twenty-four or five miles away from Yongsheng Village, and it takes fifty miles to go back and forth. Why are you picking mountain products and traveling so far?

It must be a stick!

Zhao Jun's eyes suddenly widened. He remembered that when he and the father and son met each other, he looked back and saw that the Pang masters each carried a basket on their backs, and the baskets seemed to be heavy. Therefore, I muttered something casually at that time: "These three of us are a lot of people."

If those three baskets are all mallets, how much will they cost?

It would be strange if you could fall asleep with your whole mind on getting rich.

In this way, Zhao Jun stayed on the kang until two o'clock in the middle of the night before falling asleep. More than an hour later, Zhao Youcai in the east room got up from the kang.

Wang Meilan, who was sleeping next to him, heard the noise, opened her eyes a little, and asked drowsily: "What are you doing up so early? There are ready-made meals."

There are guests at home these days, and there are seven plates and eight bowls every day. Some dishes are still leftover. I have to clean them up quickly today, otherwise they will be easy to spoil.

When eating leftovers, just put them in a pot and heat them up. There is no need to get up early to cook.

But Zhao Youcai said: "We can't eat all the leftovers. I'll scoop out some beans and exchange them for some tofu curd. You can drink it if you like."

Wang Meilan ignored him in a daze, pulled the corner of the quilt, turned over and fell asleep again.

Zhao Youcai put on his clothes quietly, went to the outhouse, took the washbasin and went out to get water to wash his face. Then he went into the house, opened the dish rack and took out the bag of soybeans, scooped out two bowls of soybeans, filled the basins, opened the door and walked out.

Today is September 21st, and the weather in the Northeast is getting colder day by day. Moreover, it gets cooler in the morning and evening.

This is especially true in mountainous areas.

At this time, it was just dawn and the temperature was not even ten degrees above zero. Zhao Youcai pursed his coat collar and walked quickly outside the courtyard gate.

He told Wang Meilan that he wanted to exchange for tofu noodles, but instead he came to Wang Qiang's house, wandered around Wang Qiang's house, and then went to Zhang Yuanmin's house.

When he was still four or five meters away from Zhang Yuanmin, he suddenly heard the sound of a dog barking from Zhang Yuanmin's yard.

Zhao Youcai snorted coldly, turned around and left.

…

Because he slept late yesterday, Zhao Jun didn't get up until 6:30 this morning.

This was because Jie Chen took Er Hei out to make it easier to come back. The door opened a little louder, which woke Zhao Jun up.

When Zhao Jun asked, it was already half past six. He hurriedly got up from the kang, got dressed and came to the east room, where he saw Wang Meilan sewing Zhao Hong's pants.

Even though she is a little girl, she had a pretty good day. Yesterday she untied her crotch.

Zhao Jun said a few words to Wang Meilan and felt the urge to urinate, so he pulled on his shoes and went outside.

At this time, Zhao Youcai, who was heating yesterday's leftovers in the outer room, saw Zhao Jun going outside the courtyard, so he called Jie Chen to look at the pot while he went out of the room.

When Zhao Jun came out of the latrine and was walking with his head down to tie his pants, he suddenly felt someone in front of him. When he looked up, he saw Zhao Youcai standing in front of him.

"Dad..." As soon as Zhao Jun opened his mouth, he saw Zhao Youcai looking at him with a gloomy expression. Zhao Jun's heart suddenly suddenly moved, he hurriedly moved two steps to the side, pointed to the latrine behind him and said: "You are in a hurry, go ahead. "

After saying that, Zhao Jun took a step to run away.

"Stop!" Zhao Youcai turned around suddenly, stopped Zhao Jun, and said to him: "I found my five blacks."

"What the hell?" Zhao Jun was stunned when he heard this, not understanding what Zhao Youcai was talking about.

He did know that Zhao Youcai named dogs. If it was a flower dog, the big flower, second flower, or third flower would be listed at the bottom. For example, Li Baoyu’s rhubarb used to have two and three yellow varieties.

But Hualong was obviously a flowery dog, and Zhao Jun couldn't connect it with Wuhei for a while.

Seeing that Zhao Jun seemed really confused, Zhao Youcai explained to him: "I asked Baoyu to throw away that dog yesterday. It was my five blacks."

"That's a flower..." As soon as Zhao Jun opened his mouth, he realized something was wrong and quickly changed his words: "Where did you find it? Did you run back by yourself? No way, it hasn't been to our house either."

"You didn't run back to our house." Zhao Youcai said calmly: "You ran to your Brother Zhang's house?"

"Ah?" Zhao Jun was shocked.

Yesterday, he had an impromptu idea and asked Li Baoyu to go directly to Zhang Yuanmin's house after entering the village and leave the flower dragon at Zhang Yuanmin's house. Then he came back and said that the dog was lost, thinking that after two days, he would return Hualong back under the pretense of Zhang Yuanmin.

Because the incident happened so suddenly, Zhao Jun didn't have time to tell Zhang Yuanmin and Yang Yufeng. It was Li Baoyu who chased after Zhang Yuanmin and Yang Yufeng after they left yesterday.

Logically speaking, no one should know about this!

"Is it Li Ruhai?" The first thing Zhao Jun thought of was this boy, and only his mouth could spread the news so quickly.

However, Zhao Jun then thought about it, Li Baoyu would not talk about such a big matter at all, let alone tell Li Ruhai.

But at this time, there was not much time left for Zhao Jun to consider.

Zhao Youcai raised his left hand, making a half-clenched fist with the center of his fist downward. Put your right hand on top of your left hand like a fist, and press the four fingers of your left hand except the thumb.

Hearing a banging sound, Zhao Jun hurriedly waved his hands and said: "Dad, Dad, you can't do it, you can't do it!"

"Little calf!" Zhao Youcai stretched out his hand, grabbed Zhao Jun's collar, and made a fist with his other hand: "You teamed up with others to deceive me, or I won't beat you..."

"Dad, you can't hit me." Zhao Jun said hurriedly: "I gave you twenty yuan yesterday!"

"What does that have to do with this?" Zhao Youcai put down his fist. Although he still held Zhao Jun's collar, his tone softened a lot and said, "If you didn't say it yesterday, were you buying me cigarettes or something? With this What does it have to do with anything?"

"I..." As soon as Zhao Jun saw this posture, he knew that Zhao Youcai wanted money, and said immediately: "Dad, what do you think of this matter?"

When Zhao Youcai heard this, he raised his hand that he had just put down, gestured with two fingers in front of Zhao Jun, and said, "Two hundred!"

"Two hundred?" Zhao Jun frowned, then smiled and said, "Then hit me."

This time, Zhao Youcai was stunned. He quickly put away his upright middle finger, leaving only his index finger to sign with Zhao Jun: "One hundred."

This time, it was cut in half, but Zhao Jun still said: "Not even a hundred."

"Oops?" Zhao Youcai stared, but Zhao Jun said, "Is fifty okay?"

"Take the money!" Zhao Youcai simply let go of Zhao Jun's collar, then spread it out in front of Zhao Jun, waiting to receive the money.

Zhao Jun curled his lips helplessly, took out the ten Unity cards given by Mrs. Jiang yesterday from his pocket, counted five of them and handed them to Zhao Youcai.

Zhao Youcai didn't take it, but pointed at the money in Zhao Jun's hand and said, "Don't you have one hundred?"

Zhao Jun shook the fifty yuan he held in his right hand angrily and said, "Dad, do you want it or not?"

"Yes, yes!" Zhao Youcai grabbed the fifty, put it into his pocket with a smile, and muttered: "The little bastard is really rich."

Zhao Jun: "..."

Seeing Zhao Youcai running home after receiving the money, Zhao Jun quickly stopped him and asked: "Dad."

"Huh?" Zhao Youcai paused. When he turned around, he held his pockets and looked at Zhao Jun nervously, saying, "I won't beat you anymore, so you can just have fun."

"Well, I thank you." Zhao Jun replied in an eccentric manner, then walked up to Zhao Youcai and asked, "Dad, there is a blind man named Pang in my brother-in-law's village, do you know him?"

"We know him." Zhao Youcai nodded and said, "He used to be from our forestry farm. When he was practicing Taoism, he blew out his eye by using explosives. The forestry farm paid him a lot of money."

"Ah!" This answer was not what Zhao Jun wanted, so he asked again: "Dad, is he releasing the mountain now?"

To set mountains free is to use a mallet. And climbing mountains, hunting sieges, collecting mountain products, all the things that are done to make money in the mountains are called mountain running.

As soon as Zhao Jun mentioned releasing the mountain, Zhao Youcai understood and immediately nodded in agreement, "Yeah, a while ago he led a group of people to live in the mountain for more than a month."

Zhao Jun heard this and asked, "Is he the leader?"

"There are people following him all the time." Zhao Youcai said: "His father, Pang Laowai, used to be the boss. He is famous in eight villages throughout the country."

"Ah!" Zhao Jun nodded and remained silent.

When Zhao Youcai saw this, he rolled his eyes and called Zhao Jun: "Smash it."

"Huh?" Zhao Jun asked, "What's wrong, Dad?"

Zhao Youcai touched Zhao Jun's arm with his elbow and said, "If you ever find a mallet somewhere again, don't look for anyone else, look for me! Dad, go with you!"

Zhao Jun turned his head, glanced at Zhao Youcai, who was looking at him with a smile, and said, "Dad, if you want to follow me, you have to listen to me."

"Ah!" Zhao Youcai nodded and said without hesitation: "I have to listen to you with a mallet, and I don't know how."

"Okay." Zhao Jun said, "Then you wait until I find Lao Zunzi."

"Yeah, yeah." Hearing Zhao Jun's promise, Zhao Youcai nodded repeatedly, then raised his hand to point to the courtyard and said, "Son, hurry up and come in. Dad changed the tofu for you this morning, so I know you are willing to drink this."

"Wait a minute!" Zhao Jun couldn't help laughing: "Dad, tofu nao, isn't that your favorite?"

Zhao Youcai was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Don't worry about that, go back quickly, wash your face, wash your hands, and eat."

Zhao Youcai had a great time eating this meal. He had the 70 yuan he had gotten from Zhao Jun in the past two days in his pocket and ate his favorite tofu puffs, such as Siberian leopard and black dog Zhao Pao. They were all thrown out of the sky by him.

After dinner, Wang Meilan washed the dishes and pots in the outer room. Zhao Youcai hid in the east room, staring at the door, and transferred all the seventy yuan into the pocket of the clothes he wore when going out.

After finishing all this, Zhao Youcai changed his clothes and left the house ahead of Zhao Jun. When he came to the courtyard, he shouted to the next door: "Dayong, Dayong! Let's go to work."

As soon as Zhao Youcai finished speaking, Li Dayong's voice of agreement came from the Li family. Zhao Youcai turned around and said to the open door of his house: "Lan Na, I'm going to work."

As soon as Zhao Youcai finished speaking, Wang Meilan appeared at the door, looked at him coldly, and said four words in a stiff tone: "Go to work well."

Zhao Youcai knew the reason for this and agreed with a playful smile. Li Dayong and Li Baoyu, father and son, happened to come out of the house. The three of them went out separately and then met again, and then walked out of the village together.

After sending Zhao Youcai away, Wang Meilan returned to the house and took a special look at Zhao Jun's door. Seeing that the door was closed, she thought the two children might be changing clothes, so she whispered: "Son, come here in a while, mom and you Say something."

"Hey, here we come." When Zhao Jun heard Wang Meilan calling him, he came out of the room and followed Wang Meilan to the west room.

He thought there was something wrong with my mother calling him.

But after sitting down, I heard Wang Meilan say: "Son, where did you leave the dog? Bring it back later."

Zhao Jun smiled and said, "When did my dad tell you?"

Yesterday, the two of them made some small moves secretly, but Wang Meilan cooperated completely passively. Now that she could say these two sentences, Zhao Jun knew that it was Zhao Youcai who said something to her.

But since the two of them entered the house together before, Zhao Youcai probably had no chance to tell Wang Meilan this.

"Last night!" Wang Meilan shook her head and said, "When your dad told me so suddenly, I was shocked!"

"What?" Zhao Jun couldn't believe his ears for a moment. He asked Wang Meilan, "Mom, you already knew, why didn't you tell me?"

Zhao Jun remembered that after getting up in the morning, he first went to the east room to tell Wang Meilan that he was going to Lingnan to see a doctor and buy gold the day after tomorrow. After saying this, he went to the hut.

If Wang Meilan had told herself at that time that the hidden dog incident had been exposed, Zhao Jun must have been prepared in advance and would not have let Zhao Youcai extort fifty yuan at once.

After hearing what Zhao Jun said, Wang Meilan subconsciously pointed out the window and said, "Your dad told me to wait until he leaves before I tell you."

As soon as Wang Meilan said these words, Zhao Jun was very angry. Er Gudong cheated his own money, and then asked me to do this. Isn't this deceiving people?

At this time, Zhao Youcai, who had just reached the village entrance, suddenly stopped humming. He thought of a serious problem.

"I just finished tricking that little Gudong, can he still take me to free the mountains? Huh? Why do I call him Little Gudong?"

I went to do nucleic acid tests this morning, so I’ll waste some time and add another chapter first. There will be an additional chapter in the afternoon.
