Chapter 118 has a bonus.

Wang Jiachuan didn't go home for lunch; he stayed at the field headquarters waiting for news.

He was genuinely worried, fearing that the bear was too troublesome and might hurt someone again.

Hearing the commotion outside, Wang Jiachuan could no longer sit still. He jumped up and strode out of his office.

"You're back? How are you? Nothing happened, right?"

Wang Jiachuan didn't ask whether Hei Xiazi was killed or not, but anxiously asked everyone if anything had happened.

"Secretary, nothing happened. Hei Xiazi was killed by Xi Ping with three shots."

This is a bear's head; have someone take it to the station.

The head of the security department put down the sack he was carrying, opened the sack, rolled it down a few times, and showed it to Wang Jiachuan.

Wang Jiachuan peered into the sack and, to his surprise, saw a huge black bear's head.

Upon closer inspection, the bear's mouth was a bloody mess, likely caused by a bomb.

That makes sense; it really was the black bear that injured those educated youth.

"Good, good, you're all good. Leave your heads here, I'll arrange for someone to send them to the station this afternoon."

This was a task assigned by the bureau. Now that it has been successfully completed, we have to deliver Hei Xiazi's head.

We'll leave it to the Sun and Du families to do as they please.

Anyway, the forest farm has fulfilled their demands, which can be considered as revenge for Sun Yunpeng and Du Jiabin.

"Great job, you did a wonderful job today."

That's settled then. You've all had a hard morning, so go home and rest.

You can divide up the bear meat and stuff.

In the afternoon, I went to the finance department to collect my bonus. Xi Ping got forty yuan, and the others got twenty.

Wang Jiachuan inquired about the process of hunting the black bear, and then announced it with great excitement.

The farm originally planned to offer a reward of money to anyone who killed the black bear, whether they were forestry workers or hunters from the Dajianchang area.

Now that Sheng Xiping and his men have killed Hei Xiazi and brought back his head, the reward money will definitely be substantial.

Ten people went into the mountains, each receiving twenty yuan, and Sheng Xiping gave an additional twenty yuan as a bonus. Everyone was happy, wasn't that great?

Sure enough, everyone was overjoyed when they heard that they would not only get to share meat but also receive a bonus.

"Thank you, Secretary. We've really benefited from Xiping's success this time."

Who wouldn't be happy to get paid?

No one made any pretense of refusing; they happily thanked Wang Jiachuan and carried their sacks away.

Sheng Xiping originally wanted to give Wang Jiachuan a black bear leg and a bear paw, but Wang Jiachuan refused, so he had no choice but to give up.

And so, the group carried their belongings and went directly to the home of the nearest head of the security department, where they divided up the bear meat and other items.

The main force for this raid on the black bear was Sheng Xiping and his five dogs.

According to the rules of hunting, Erlang Shen is the head dog and gets a share, while the other dogs also get a share.

As for the rest, Sheng Xiping was the leader, so he should have taken more.

However, since Sheng Xiping received twenty yuan more in prize money than others, he didn't bother to argue about the meat and simply divided it equally among everyone.

Even after removing the head, paws, and offal from a bear, there's still a fair amount of meat left.

After deducting the dogs' share, each person can get about 20 kilograms of the remaining food.

These things are all roughly the same; once they're divided, that's it. Nobody can actually weigh them precisely to the last pound before dividing them.

Everyone was just following behind Sheng Xiping and got a freebie.

The 20 yuan bonus will be in my hands this afternoon, who cares how much meat I get? As long as I get it, that's enough.

So everyone finished dividing the meat very smoothly, and Chen Weiguo helped Sheng Xiping send Gouzi's share back to the Sheng family.

On the Sheng family's side, Sheng Liancheng and his wife also had no appetite and sat at the table in a daze.

How could they not know the rules when their own son is hunting?

This beast that has killed people is not to be trifled with, but since their son said he wanted to go and beat it up, they couldn't stop him.

Ever since their son left home that morning, the couple had been so absent-minded, constantly worrying about him, afraid that something might be wrong with him.

"Dad, Mom, Erlang Shen and the others are back."

Sheng Yunfang, who had already finished eating, couldn't sit still any longer and ran to the front gate to look around.

Then they saw Erlang Shen limping back, leading the four dogs, running back from the east.

Upon seeing this, Sheng Yunfang knew that her brother had returned, so she quickly ran into the house, calling out as she ran.

Upon hearing this, Sheng Liancheng and his wife hurriedly came out of the house and saw five dogs entering the yard.

Judging from the fact that all five dogs had injuries, and Erlang Shen's hindquarters were wrapped in leg wraps and he was limping, it was clear that the dogs were badly injured.

"Oh dear, looks like this is going to be another tough battle."

Sheng Liancheng bent down and patted the dogs. Seeing that all five dogs had bulging bellies, he knew they were full.

The dog ate its fill on the mountain, which must have been meat. Thinking about it that way, it's clear that the bear must have been killed.

I guess Sheng Xiping and the others are either at the farm headquarters or Wangjiachuan; they'll be back in a bit.

"Honey, hurry up and reheat the food. Our son should be back in a bit."

Sheng Liancheng became happy and hurriedly said.

Seeing the dog return, Zhang Shuzhen was relieved. "No need, the rice left in the pot is still warm."

What mother doesn't love her son dearly? When Zhang Shuzhen served rice, she always saved some for her son.

Keep it warm in the pot, so it won't get cold no matter when you come back to eat it.

The couple didn't go inside; they just waited at the front door.

After a while, they saw their eldest son and the eldest son of the Chen family next door, carrying something and walking heavily towards them.

"Second son, third son, hurry up and go pick up your brother," Zhang Shuzhen called to her two sons.

Sheng Xi'an and Sheng Xikang had finished eating and were getting ready to pack their things to go to school.

Upon hearing their mother call, the two hurried out of the house, quickly stepped forward, and took the things from their elder brother's hands.

“These are also from your family, take them back with you.” Chen Weiguo handed another portion to the two younger brothers of the Sheng family.

Sheng Xi'an and Sheng Xikang took the sack, staggered, hoisted it onto their shoulders, and started walking back.

"Uncle, Aunt, we're back."

Xi Ping killed the bear with three shots, and we, who were following behind, got a piece of the meat.

When Chen Weiguo saw that Sheng Liancheng and his wife were at the gate, he quickly came over to greet them.

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. As long as you come back safe and sound, who cares about whether it's cheap or not?"

"You risked your lives to accompany Xiping into the mountains; you deserve it." Sheng Liancheng smiled when he saw his son return safely.

"Weiguo, come over for dinner. Your aunt saved some for you."

"Uncle, no, I can't. My parents are probably worried about me too. I have to go home quickly so they can rest assured."

Chen Weiguo smiled and shook his head, said a few words to Sheng Liancheng, and then stepped into his own yard.

“Come on, let’s go home. Your mother and I are worried about you. We haven’t even had lunch yet.”

With their son back safe and sound, Sheng Liancheng and his wife finally felt relieved.

So Sheng Liancheng patted his son on the shoulder and went inside to eat with Sheng Xiping.
