She was originally a noble lady from a wealthy family, but who knew that one day her father, the Grand Tutor, would be demoted and exiled to Lingnan. The starting point is a broken-down house with ...
Chapter 127 Villagers Together
Yu Xiaofang and Zhaonan were both experienced people, and the villagers obeyed their orders very well. The direction of the expulsion had been planned in advance. In addition, Yu Xiaofang was good at using medicine. The wild boars were frightened and became dizzy when they smelled the special smell of the medicine. They howled and rushed forward subconsciously.
The deep trap was the first ambush, and the various snares set by the crisscrossing trip wires and vines were the second ambush. Around the second ambush, Zhou Hansheng, Lin Mo, Hu Ling and Zhou Hansheng's followers each led several villagers to ambush, taking the opportunity to shoot arrows or swing wooden sticks.
For a moment, the forest was filled with trees breaking, rocks rolling, shouts and cries, and the scene was thrilling and exciting. Normally, if the villagers encountered a wild boar, they would never dare to provoke it, not even to startle it. They could only carefully avoid it, fearing that if they disturbed the king of the mountain, they would be chased by it - the meat was not so tasty.
Now, under the leadership of Zhou Hansheng and others, they have become much braver. We are all men. If we don’t take action at this time, when will we take action?
Such an exciting opportunity doesn't come along all the time.
Zhao Liya followed Zhou Hansheng, holding a wooden stick, and hardly found any opportunity to attack. Zhou Hansheng's bow and arrow were unstoppable, and each arrow could make a wild boar lose its fighting ability. It was soon attacked and killed by the villagers.
Lin Mo is even more skilled at this and is equally adept at it.
In addition, Zhou Hansheng's followers were all good fighters, Hu Ling was also very powerful, and the effect of the medicine made by Yu Xiaofang was also obvious. The reactions of these wild boars became obviously slower, making it easier for Zhou Hansheng and others to deal with them.
The encirclement and suppression lasted for about half an hour. Except for the wild boars that were lucky enough to escape, everyone counted and found that they had captured 36 wild boars, big and small!
Judging from the visual weight, the larger one weighs about 300 kilograms, and the smaller one weighs more than 100 kilograms.
Everyone smiled with their mouths wide open and their eyes narrowed.
"Hahaha! I'm rich, I'm rich!"
“It’s so enjoyable, hahahaha!”
"That's right! I never thought that one day I would be able to hunt wild boars! Normally, when I see them, I dare not even breathe for fear of disturbing them."
Everyone laughed: We are all the same!
So, everyone cut down trees to make simple stretchers and happily carried the thirty-six wild boars back.
Since there were not enough people, Yu Xiaofang was asked to take someone back and call for help.
The hunting grounds were only about an hour's drive from the village, so the trip wasn't a big deal. By the time they got all the wild boars back that day, it was around two in the afternoon, making it easy for everyone to butcher and carve them up.
The village had never been so lively before. So many wild boars were brought back at once that almost everyone in the village gathered around to watch. The children were jumping up and down, screaming and laughing with great excitement.
There are only fifty-two households in the village. More than half of them went hunting this time, and only less than twenty households did not go.
Almost all those who didn't go later went to help carry the wild boar back.
Zhao Liya said that everyone who came to help would be given ten pounds of meat, which made everyone very happy.
Naturally, Zhao Liya and the others had the final say on how to divide the thirty-six wild boars.
The Zhao family kept two of the ones weighing about 150 to 160 kilograms, Lin Mo kept one, and the rest was divided roughly equally among the others, except for those who helped who each gave 10 kilograms.
Those who obviously put in more effort will be given an extra 20 or 30 kilograms.
With so much to gain, everyone won’t care so much.
In the end, everyone who participated basically got about 120 to 130 kilograms. If there were a family with two brothers or a father and son, they naturally got double the portion, which was more than 200 kilograms. The whole family was very happy.
The villagers were very envious.
There were those who did not participate in the hunting and did not go to help. There were three families, some old and some young, some weak, who were unable to help. Zhao Liya's family gave them about ten pounds of food, and the three families accepted it with gratitude.
Zhao Liya doesn't care about other people.
Some are lazy and greedy, so they deserve not to get any; some are rich and don’t want to suffer, so they spend money to buy it from other people.
With so much meat, some villagers would rather make some money and sell it to others at a lower price.
All in all, almost everyone is happy.
Everyone was more and more grateful to the Zhao family. They laughed and said that after the Zhao family came, everyone's life became better and they had hope. They were all happy in their hearts.
If anyone makes things difficult for the Zhao family in the future, we will be the first to disagree!
Among those who didn't gain any benefit at all were the Gu family, Hulu and his family, and the Luo family.
Needless to say, the Gu family and Hulu would never take the initiative to ask for participation in matters led by the Zhao family, even if the Zhao family did not explicitly refuse their participation.
Because they had something to hide, they were afraid that the Zhao family would plot something bad and harm them.
Seeing others happily dividing the meat, I couldn't help but feel angry and jealous.
For example, Mrs. Gu Ersao cursed countless times at home.
Mrs. Gu Dasao and Mrs. Gu Sansao also felt very uncomfortable.
When the Gu family was in charge, no one would take the initiative to praise the Gu family or say a good word about them. Everyone was afraid of and hated the Gu family.
In the past, they felt very proud: "What if I hate you? Even if I hate you, I dare not disobey you? I just like to see you hate us so much but dare not resist, and have to obey our orders."
Secretly happy.
But now, seeing the villagers smiling brightly and expressing their genuine admiration for the Zhao family, and their words and thoughts full of support, they felt unhappy and lost.
This is a feeling that the Gu family has never enjoyed before. They used to think it was not important and they didn’t care about it, but maybe they actually care about it and want it.
But they also knew that the Gu family would never have such an opportunity again.
Uncle Luo's eldest son also went with them, so the family also received about 130 kilograms of meat, half a pig liver and a pig stomach.
Luo Shuyan didn't mind telling everyone how to clean the internal organs more thoroughly and how to cook them to make them taste better. Everyone got some internal organs and planned to cook them well to try.
Boss Luo was so lazy that of course he couldn't go. When everyone was dividing the meat, he joined the crowd to watch the fun, his eyes eager and with a hint of anticipation.
He felt that Luo Shuyan was his daughter after all, and Lin Mo was his future son-in-law after all. He got a wild boar, which weighed about fifty or sixty kilograms, so he had to give some to his family, right?
But Lin Mo didn't even look at him from beginning to end.
He was afraid that Lin Mo couldn't see him, so he found the right position and quietly moved to the opposite side of Lin Mo.
Lin Mo still didn't see him.
At this time, someone asked him with a smile: "This meat is so cheap! One pound is five or six coins cheaper than in the city. Brother Luo, would you like to buy some?"
