The two chatted about other things for a while, then turned off the lights and went to sleep.

With no worries on her mind, the wife soon began to breathe softly and evenly.

Looking at the dark roof, he began to plan his next development strategy.

As the last snow continued to melt, it became much more difficult to find rabbits in the haystacks. Those creatures began to return to the deeper forests, surviving on wild fruits that had fallen to the ground and wild grasses among the leaves.

To continue capturing them, we need to start thinking of ways to do it.

The saying "a cunning rabbit has three burrows" actually exaggerates their intelligence.

In fact, these little things are typical examples of habitual thinking; they often travel back and forth along the same path many times. By cleverly utilizing this characteristic, it is easy to achieve something.

Wang Tianxiao had his own methods for catching wild rabbits. He had tried almost every method many times. Although he lived in the mountains for a long time and there were many wild animals, the only ones he could eat for a long time and whose numbers would not decrease were wild rabbits and pheasants.

They reproduce very quickly and are almost impossible to catch completely. The forestry farm encourages their capture, otherwise these creatures will eat a lot of plants and even bite through the bark of many trees, causing them to die.

It's winter now, and there's not much to do except hunt. If he wants to start his herb cultivation business next year, he needs to accumulate as much capital as possible. For example, the seeds of Artemisia argyi and dandelion alone will cost five thousand yuan.

He had earned some money during this period, but he had also spent some of it. What he had left was not enough to cover the cost of buying seeds, and the deer he had promised Zhang Wenyuan was not something he could hunt whenever he wanted.

After much thought, the only option left was to generate revenue from the mountains.

Try to catch more rabbits and pheasants. If you're lucky, you might even encounter a wild boar or roe deer. Catching just a few would be a pleasant surprise.

Of course, capturing a sika deer calf alive would be the best thing.

Venison isn't actually very tasty; if not prepared properly, it can have a strong gamey smell, so a dead deer won't fetch much of a price.

If you can capture it alive and tame it slowly, you can gradually extract its remaining value.

The entire deer is valuable; its antlers, blood, and other resources can be used for long-term purposes.

As for red deer, forget about it for now. Red deer are too strong fighters; unless they are very young fawns, it's impossible to catch them alive. If they get angry, dogs are no match for them.

Okay, take your time.
