The whole mountain is my hunting ground

Tonight, Zhao Jun's house was quiet. Apart from his family of five, only the old lady Hehe Sun was eating here.

After dinner, the old lady reconciled with Sun and went home. When they were leaving, Zhao Jun went out with them carrying a noodle bag on his shoulder and a noodle bag in his hand.

Zhao Jun walked with the two of them, first sending the old lady Xie Sun back home, and then he went straight to Zhang Yuanmin's house with two noodle bags.

After arriving at Zhang Yuanmin's house, Zhao Jun came directly to the door of the house and placed the two dough bags outside the door.

In these two pockets, one contains frozen dumplings and the other contains slot cakes.

Both of these had to be stored frozen, so Zhao Jun didn't carry them to the house.

After putting down his things, Zhao Junkong pulled the door open and entered the house.

At this time, the Zhang family had finished dinner. Zhang Yuanmin was sitting on the kang reading a book, and Xiao Lingdang was also sitting on the kang reading a book, but they were reading different books. Xiao Lingdang read the Chinese textbook, and Zhang Yuanmin read "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

As for Yang Yufeng, she was helping Zhang Yuanmin pack his things.

There was a call from Lingnan this afternoon. The call came to the Tunbu Department and asked for Zhang Yuanmin by name. Tan Chaoyang who answered the phone was stunned when he heard this.

This is the first time someone has called Zhang Yuanmin since he was born.

Zhao Jun also recognized the person who made the call from Lingnan. His name was Jiang Jinyou. He met Zhao Jun at 77 Lengchang in the spring of this year.

Later, through Zhao Jun, Jiang Jinyou met Zhang Yuanmin.

Otherwise, gold shines everywhere.

This sentence applies not only to Li Ruhai, but also to Zhang Yuanmin.

Thinking back to the time when Zhang Yuanmin went to 77 Lingchang to do the work of cleaning, planting trees, cutting branches, and building materials, he went to that Lengchang for less than ten days in total, and his working days did not exceed five days.

But in just a few days, Zhang Yuanmin captured a black bear and gained several younger brothers.

Among them, Jiang Jinyou, Ma Xiaoguang, Li Yuan, and Li Wei were the closest to Zhang Yuanmin, and the reason for their closeness was simple: Zhang Yuanmin made money with them.

Last month, Xie Zhong decided to come to Baolengchang. When he was worried about not being able to recruit tenants, Zhang Yuanmin volunteered to follow the Jie brothers on a trip to Lingnan, poached Du Chunjiang's corner, and recruited nearly thirty tenants for Xie Zhong. .

Since the first snow in Yong'an, Jie Chen called home. Xie Zhong put down the phone and went to the villages where the tenants were located, looking for their representatives and asking them to notify each tenant.

Although the households Zhang Yuanmin was looking for were not in the same village as Xie Zhong, they had all worked in Yong'an Forest District, so he could find them.

Jiang Jinyou and others came to Zhang Yuanmin because they wanted to use Zhang Yuanmin to choose a trumpet with a good position for themselves.

A forest class is roughly divided into a dozen or dozens of small cells. Each small cell has a number stake, with a code written on the number stake, and is responsible for a tenant.

In this mountain farm, the mountains are undulating and the trees are growing irregularly, so each trumpet is different.

Whether this trumpet is good or not depends on the shape of the mountain. The mountain is extremely steep, and animals pulling wood can easily run uphill, which can be dangerous. It doesn't work if the hillside is too flat. If the hillside is too flat, it will be difficult for the animals to pull the wood down.

This is one, and the other is to see if the trees are in line.

Hexing is forest lingo and refers to the distance between mature trees. Because there are a series of problems such as placing trees and cutting branches, the spacing between trees is very important. It won’t work if it’s far away, and it won’t work if it’s close!

These two issues determine whether it is convenient to work in the forest area. To put it bluntly, it means whether you can work and work comfortably.

The most critical factor lies in the distance from the trumpet to Lengchang.

The Lengchang is fixed, but the distance from each trumpet to the Lengchang must be different. The closer you are to Lengchang, the less time you need to travel there and back.

Therefore, this was the reason why Du Chunjiang allowed Du Chunlin to go pull wood from Jiang Jinyou's trumpet.

It is close to Lengchang, and tenants can make five trips a day. The one far away from Lengchang may only be able to travel four times.

The less you run, the less you earn. When it comes to personal interests, no one wants to suffer.

Therefore, after discussing at home, Jiang Jinyou and others planned to come to Yong'an tomorrow and ask Zhang Yuanmin to take them to Lengchang in advance to select the trumpet number in advance.

Zhang Yuanmin agreed to the request of these four people. Tomorrow, Jiang Jinyou and others drove the sledge to Zhang Yuanmin's house. I heard that they brought some gifts to Zhang Yuanmin, and then took Zhang Yuanmin with them to Xinlangchang.

Hearing the news, Zhang Yuanmin was extremely happy.

Zhang Yuanmin is not inferior to them, after all, he is now one of the top ten richest people in Yong'antun. What Zhang Yuanmin wants is the respect these people give him.

Just imagine, a person has been called a big crotch since he was a child, and after nearly thirty years of poverty, he feels like a strong person in his heart. Although I have money now, I am still lacking in social status.

After Zhao Jun learned the news, he wanted Zhang Yuanmin to deliver the things he had prepared for Xing San. The old man had nothing in the mountains. He had roe deer, wild boar, and the like, but he couldn't bear to eat them, so he took them to the market to exchange for money.

Zhao Jun just sat down and told Zhang Yuanmin about the matter. Zhang Yuanmin immediately agreed without thinking about it: "It's okay, brother. They have three or four sledges. It doesn't matter how much they take."

At this time, Yang Yufeng handed Zhao Jun a tea jar, and then said to Zhao Jun: "Brother, you sit down, I will go out and put all the food in the jar."

The cold winter can't take away the lives of mice, but those pesky guys are more interested in collecting food. If the food is left directly outside, they may have to chew it.

Although the bars are hard from the cold, the rat has left teeth marks on it, and it makes me feel sick just looking at it!

Yang Yufeng came back as soon as she left, and behind her was Li Ruhai.

This is a rare visitor!

Zhao Jun, Zhang Yuanmin, and Xiao Lingdang all looked over and saw Li Ruhai carrying two wine barrels, each of which should weigh ten kilograms.

"Ouch!" Zhang Yuanmin said happily: "Ruhai, look at you! Just come if you come. Why are you carrying wine?"

Li Ruhai: "Huh?"

Yang Yufeng walked up to Zhang Yuanmin, smiled and pulled him gently, and then heard Li Ruhai say: "Brother Zhang, these two barrels of wine are not for you..."

The reason why Li Ruhai came to Zhang Yuanmin's house was also very simple. It was the same as Zhao Jun, except that Zhao Jun asked Zhang Yuanmin to help carry things to Xing San, while Li Ruhai was thinking about his master.

At this time, Zhao Jun remembered that he saw Aunt Qi and Song Qiuyue who were helping Li Ruhai buy cakes in the grocery store during the day, so he asked Li Ruhai: "Ruhai, why are you just buying these two barrels of wine? Why don't you buy the cakes?" Is it too good?"

"The trough cakes are outside." As soon as Zhao Jun finished speaking, Yang Yufeng continued: "I will put all the things you brought in the jar for a while, and I will ask your elder brother to bring them over tomorrow."

This kid Li Ruhai really repaid his kindness. Not only did he buy Uncle Yang some wine and cakes, but he also ordered half a bag of frozen dumplings from home.

"Oh!" After Zhao Jun heard this, he asked Li Ruhai in surprise: "How did you get these old things?"

Two barrels of wine, one barrel weighing ten kilograms, is twenty kilograms. Plus ten pounds of trough cakes and more than ten pounds of dumplings.

It weighed more than 40 kilograms in total. Although it was not too heavy, the key was that these things could not be packed into a sack. And the child had two hands. Zhao Jun wondered how he got here all the way.

Li Ruhai smiled when he heard this and said, "The brother-in-law of the old Liu family got it for me."

"Brother-in-law of the Liu family?" Zhao Jun and others looked at each other. Zhao Jun frowned and asked, "Which brother-in-law of the Liu family are you?"

"It's my sister Qiuyue's boyfriend!" After Li Ruhai finished answering, Zhao Jun twitched the corner of his mouth and asked loudly: "Isn't that Brother Liu?"

On the side, Zhang Yuanmin and his wife were laughing and laughing. Liu Lao Er was the resident of this village. Li Ruhai had called him Liu Er Ge for more than ten years. But since Li Ruhai and his wife became brother-in-law, Brother Liu became the brother-in-law of the old Liu family.

Li Ruhai laughed, and then asked Zhang Yuanmin: "Brother Zhang, don't you want to buy a horse? I've already contacted you, have you gone to see it?"

"No." Zhang Yuanmin sighed, gestured towards Yang Yufeng, and said, "Your sister-in-law and others won't let me buy it."

"Ah?" Li Ruhai looked at Yang Yufeng, wondering why he had changed his mind about what he had planned to do?

"What..." At this time, Zhao Jun answered: "Brother Zhang is not allowed to go."

Li Ruhai looked at Zhao Jun in surprise and heard him continue: "How tiring is it to pull the condom? You have to get up at two or three o'clock every morning to feed the animals."

At this point, Zhao Jun raised his chin to Zhang Yuanmin and said, "So what I'm saying is, brother, you go up and stay for two days, help Jie Chen and his two brothers sort out those things, and you can come back as soon as you're done. It would be great for us brothers to go out and hunt for a roe deer. How much does it cost to catch a roe deer?"

Zhang Yuanmin's horse purchase was indeed stopped by Zhao Jun. But behind the scenes was Zhao Jun whom Little Lingdang begged for. The little girl's original words were: "Uncle, please advise my dad not to let him pull the strings. Otherwise, he will have to search for Heixiazicang all over the mountain." .”

Zhao Jun thought so. Over the past six months, he and Zhang Yuanmin's family had developed feelings for each other. If someone comes down from the mountain one day and tells him that Zhang Yuanmin was kicked by the black blind man, Zhao Jun will definitely feel very sad.

After Zhao Jun finished speaking, his eyes fell on the two barrels of wine. He couldn't help but smack his lips and said, "I should also get two barrels of wine to take to Uncle Xing."

"Then you can fight." Zhang Yuanmin said: "Anyway, we will have several sledges tomorrow!"

"Oh!" Zhao Jun looked up at the big clock on the wall and said, "Should we close the door now?"

There is not much for sale in small shops these days. At this time in the evening, people close their doors early and go to bed.

"I'll fight tomorrow morning!" Zhao Jun said to Zhang Yuanmin, "I'll bring it to you after I finish."

"Brother!" As soon as Zhao Jun finished speaking, Li Ruhai intervened and said, "Aren't you going to chase the black blind man out tomorrow? You can rest at home. I'll get you a drink when you're done. When I'm done, I'll bring it to Brother Zhang."

"No need!" Zhang Yuanmin said: "I'll go tomorrow, won't it be just twenty pounds of wine?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Yuanmin also asked Zhao Jun: "Do you still want sorghum?"

"Yes!" Zhao Jun nodded, suddenly remembered something, and told Zhang Yuanmin: "Brother, you go, help Xie Zhong and the others keep an eye on them, and don't let their gang conflict with that Third Uncle Xing. "

"A conflict?" Zhang Yuanmin was slightly startled, and then said: "It's okay, didn't you say last time that the old man was over sixty? At such an old age, Jie Zhong and his gang couldn't beat him."

"No..." Zhao Jun clicked his eyes and said to Zhang Yuanmin, "I'm afraid he'll hit someone."

"Ah?" Zhang Yuanmin was stunned, but he thought Zhao Jun was joking with him.

It's hard to say what's going on here. Zhao Jun wanted to wait until the Lengchang project started and got on track, then he would take the time to go and take a look. In just a few days, if Zhang Yuanmin is there to watch, nothing will happen.

Thinking of this, Zhao Jun glanced at the smiling Li Ruhai and said, "Ruhai, I also ordered a plate of tofu and ten pounds of dried tofu. I will pick it up tomorrow morning."

"Ah?" Li Ruhai said, "Brother, I can buy that thing tomorrow morning, can't I?"

"No!" Zhao Jun said: "How do you get the fresh tofu? I have already agreed with them that I will make a plate tomorrow and cut it up for me first and put it outside to freeze. And the dried tofu, three pieces , four rolls, and freeze them for me. When my mother comes over at seven or eight o'clock, they will all be frozen."

Soybean tofu is too fresh to be tossed up the mountain. As for dried tofu, if dozens of sheets are frozen together and then eaten individually, you can't melt all the dozens of sheets together, right?

"Oh!" After hearing this, Li Ruhai quickly went to the ground and said to Zhao Jun: "Brother, you are right, I will go right away, and I will also ask him to prepare one for me."

After saying that, Li Ruhai said goodbye to Zhang Yuanmin and Yang Yufeng, and then left in a hurry.

Yang Yufeng sent Li Ruhai out, and when she came back she couldn't help but sigh: "This kid Ruhai is quite smart!"

"Yeah!" Zhang Yuanmin glanced at the two barrels of wine placed on the edge of the kang and said, "This kid will have to spend a lot of money to buy these things."

"My Uncle Li is rich!" As soon as Zhang Yuanmin finished speaking, Xiao Lingdang continued, "Many of our classmates have ordered wild boar from him."

Zhao Jun, Zhang Yuanmin: "..."

…

November 11, 1987.

There is no such thing as Singles' Day these days, and today is the day when Xiao Zhaopao becomes famous. Zhao Jun will go to Xinlangchang to expel the pregnant female black bear to ensure the smooth progress of winter transportation and ensure that the winter transportation tasks of Yongan Forestry Farm are fully completed. Completed to ensure support for southern construction.

One morning, Wang Meilan got up early, rolled out the dough for Zhao Jun with her own hands, and put two poached eggs in it.

Zhao Jun was well fed and dressed, and Li Baoyu had come from next door. After a while, Zhao Jun had to go to the forest farm, and then went to Zhou Chengguo to collect the equipment. Then he joined Chu Anmin and rushed to Xinrangchang together.

Zhao Jun put on his bag and pinned the deerskin knife given by Zhang Yuanmin to the back of his waist. At this time, Wang Meilan came in with a bowl of malted milk, handed it to Zhao Jun and said: "Come on, son, drink this, you have to go up the mountain today!"

This malted milk was leftover from the little lynx's meal. The little guy switched to eating half-and-half chicken offal and so on, and gave up malted milk completely.

Zhao Jun did not refuse. He took the malted milk and drank it in one gulp. Then when he handed the bowl to Wang Meilan, he said to her: "Mom, you can go to the tofu shop later and get the frozen tofu and dry tofu." , take it to Brother Zhang when you’re done.”

"Hey!" Wang Meilan nodded and responded, "Mom knows."

Zhao Jun nodded slightly and walked out.

It was not yet seven o'clock when he came out from home. The sun had just seen in the sky. The sunshine was not very bright at this time, but there were few clouds in the sky. It should be a sunny day today.

The father and son of the Zhao family and the Li family walked out of the yard together and saw Li Ruhai standing in a row with the three snowmen.

Li Dayong was startled when he saw this and asked, "What are you doing?"

"Brother!" Li Ruhai took a step forward and said to Zhao Jun: "Little brother, I wish you a quick victory and immediate success."

This kid didn't go to work today, but I didn't expect him to do this.

"Ah..." Zhao Jun nodded and responded: "I'll lend you some good words!"

Zhao Youcai rolled his eyes at Li Ruhai and walked to the village entrance first, followed by Zhao Jun and others quickly.

Li Ruhai watched the four of them go away. When they could no longer see their backs, Li Ruhai jumped into the garden with a swish.

Zhao Jun and his party walked about two to three hundred meters when Zhao Youcai suddenly said "Ouch", which startled Zhao Jun.
