Two of the five bear gallbladders were from the two bears, one big and one small, that we encountered while hunting salt pits.

The other two were obtained by Wang Jianshe and his team when they were logging on the mountain. After the work team finished, they found Sheng Xiping and went up the mountain to kill the cicada.

There was another one, which Sheng Xiping obtained after killing a bear cub years later.

When these things were laid out, Director Zhang's eyes widened.

Other things aside, three lynx pelts and five bear gallbladders—even after all these years at the purchasing station, Director Zhang had never seen anyone produce so many at once.

"Comrade Xiao Sheng, you've really done something amazing!" Director Zhang exclaimed, unsure of what to say.

"This isn't just for me; I brought it along to sell with someone else," Sheng Xiping said with a smile, not saying much more.

"I'm not trying to criticize you, but young people are too reckless in their actions."

With so much stuff, you should have someone come with you, at least three people.

You have more money than those two guys just now. What if someone's watching you and robs you on the way?

Director Zhang was quite familiar with Sheng Xiping, and at this moment he couldn't help but complain a bit, saying that young people act without considering the consequences and are too reckless.

"Oh dear, it's true. If the director hadn't reminded me, I really wouldn't have thought of that. Besides, this is a county town, after all; there aren't any highway robbers here."

Sheng Xiping smiled, looking a bit silly and foolish.

"Remember next time, never come by yourself. Don't think that the county town is safe. It's in chaos right now."

You don't know, many of those who went to the countryside have come back, but they don't have any proper jobs and just wander around aimlessly.

Director Zhang didn't want to say much, so he just mentioned it briefly.

"Oh, is that so? Okay, I'll definitely pay attention next time." Sheng Xiping nodded hurriedly.

After a few casual words, Director Zhang began to quote prices for each item.

Of the three lynx pelts, the two that were hunted in winter were of good quality in terms of fur and size, and each cost 500 yuan. The pelt that was hunted in spring was of slightly worse quality, and I paid 450 yuan for it.

Both mink pelts were excellent, with glossy fur, a warm touch, and perfectly intact pelts. I'll give you 280 yuan for each.

These days, sable fur isn't that expensive. After all, it's a small animal, and 280 yuan is already quite a good price.

Deer antlers cost around twenty yuan per tael, so two deer antlers cost less than four hundred yuan.

Bear bile comes in various sizes, including grass bile and copper bile, and the prices vary accordingly.

The smallest one costs 300, two grass galls cost 510 and 530, and one copper gall costs 650.

The brown bear's gallbladder is also made of copper; although the unit price is low, it weighs 690 grams.

The two musk deer shells cost 370 yuan in total, the raccoon dog pelts cost 50 yuan each, and the other pelts cost 30 or 20 yuan each. All in all, it came to 6,090 yuan, but Director Zhang decided to charge it 6,010 yuan.

After deducting the money given to Wang Jianshe and others, there was still about five thousand left.

This is the result of Sheng Xiping's hunting efforts over the past six months. The main reason is that he doesn't need to go to work for the production team in winter, so he has time to hunt. If it were before, he would never have been able to accumulate so much.

Director Zhang called over the staff member in front, issued a receipt, and then took out six bundles and ten brand-new bills, counting them in front of Sheng Xiping.

"Comrade Xiao Sheng, please count this money. This receipt, as you requested, has the price of each item noted down so you can split the accounts when we get back."

It's easier to get things done when you know someone, so Director Zhang made a point of noting the price of each item on the back of the receipt.

Sheng Xiping took the money, counted it again, and then put the money and receipts into his backpack, rolled it up, and tucked it under his arm.

"Um, I'll have to trouble you this time, comrade. I'll go through the back door," Sheng Xiping said, turning to the staff member next to him.

"Yes, yes, Xiao Liu, escort Comrade Sheng to the backyard." Director Zhang remembered and quickly sent someone to escort Sheng Xiping out the back door.

The staff took out their keys, opened the back gate of the purchasing station, and escorted Sheng Xiping out.

Sheng Xiping peeked into the alleyways on both sides, but just like last time, there was nothing unusual.

So he turned around, thanked them, and stepped out the door. The other person closed the back door and locked it again.

Sheng Xiping straightened his clothes, tucked his backpack under his arm, and walked towards one end of the alley.

After walking only a few steps, they saw three or four people in front of them, carrying watermelon-slicing knives and three-section staffs, walking towards them.

The one leading the group was the tall, thin guy who had been stabbed by Sheng Xiping last time.

Footsteps sounded behind Sheng Xiping, and three or four people carrying various weapons swaggered over, led by the short, fat man from last time.

When Sheng Xiping saw the tall, thin figure at the purchasing station, he knew that these people were definitely going to make a move today.

I thought they would secretly follow Sheng Xiping and make their move when they reached a remote, deserted place.

Unexpectedly, these people were so impatient that they actually blocked Sheng Xiping in this alley.

It seems they were worried that Sheng Xiping was too cunning and that they would lose track of him in the blink of an eye, so they acted rashly and without regard for consequences.

"Hey, you've got some nerve, kid."

Last time you stabbed me, you ran away as fast as you could, and I didn't catch you. You're lucky to be alive. You still dare to come to the county?

"Damn it, if I don't tear you to pieces today, I've wasted all these years of my life."

The tall, thin man led the people up to them, glaring at Sheng Xiping with hatred, and said through gritted teeth.

"Oh, what a small world! I never expected to meet you again."

"I stabbed you in the back last time, but I didn't kill you. Now you're popping up again?"
