Han Zheng placed the heavy backpack on the ground, uncovered the pine needles covering it, and answered, not disappointing them: "Three hares, five pheasants, and one wild pigeon."
Three pairs of eyes, bulging in surprise.
It took them a while to find their voices: "Why are there so many?"
"Huaying, your medicine is incredibly effective. After the game ate the bait, they all fainted and fell beside the trap. They couldn't even get more than five meters away."
Han Zheng was shocked when he saw the wild game lying on the ground. He quickly picked it up and threw it into the backpack, then ran back as fast as he could to give her the good news.
"Yun Huaying, you are so amazing."
Jiang Yuan looked at her with burning eyes. The medicine she prescribed was extremely effective. Even doctors in big cities probably couldn't have such a skill in prescribing medicine.
Lin Shan had seen this before, but she was still surprised. She couldn't stop laughing and was extremely happy: "Hehe, we are going to live a good life with Huaying and eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks."
Yun Huaying was also very happy, but her expression was not as excited as theirs. She picked up the shoulder pole and prepared to go fetch water. "Okay, quickly put the things in the kitchen. I'll go fetch water. I'll come back to clean up after the meeting tonight."
"Huaying, you guys go make dinner at home. I'll go get you some water."
Han Zheng took the carrying pole from her hand with a light move, without giving her any chance to refuse, picked up the wooden barrel and ran away.
Seeing him running so fast, Lin Shan gave Yun Huaying a meaningful look, then she and Jiang Yuan carried the backpack into the house.
Yun Huaying is not a thoughtless person. She has seen Han Zheng's special treatment and care for her. He is also a very sensible person. He handles everything just right and will not cause her any trouble. This is why she has some good feelings towards him.
"Huaying, how do we arrange for these game?"
All these wild game were her credit. Without the powder she prepared, they would have had to rely on luck to hunt wild game, so Lin Shan and Jiang Yuan listened to her regarding the disposal of these wild game.
Yun Huaying squatted in a circle with them, weighing the wild game. Pheasants were much lighter than domesticated chickens, generally only two or three pounds each. She arranged, "We'll keep these for ourselves, and make them into dried or cured meats. If we can get more in the future, we'll sell them on the black market."
"Take it to the black market in Hegang and sell it?" Lin Shan asked her.
"If the quantity is large, we can sell it over there. The stall owners over there all have connections and a lot of money on hand. If the quantity is large, we can lower the price a little and sell it all to them at once, which can reduce the risk."
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Lin Shan agreed.
Jiang Yuan had no objection, but she had some thoughts about the distribution of the game. She hesitated for a moment before speaking out, "Yun Huaying, it's basically all your credit that we got all this game. All the money you earn belongs to you. We just need to enjoy some meat occasionally."
"Yes, Huaying, you made all of this. Jiang Yuan and I only provided some rice. We can just drink some chicken soup." Lin Shan didn't take advantage of it.
Yun Huaying also had her own ideas and plans for this matter. She said, "How about this: Han Zheng gets one pheasant and one wild pigeon for this game, and we'll keep the rest for ourselves. From now on, setting traps and collecting game in the mountains will be your responsibility. I'll be in charge of mixing the bait and selling it on the black market. The profits will be 4:3:3, with 4 going to me and 3 each for you."
"No, preparing the medicine and bait is the most important thing. There are risks in reselling it on the black market. You must take the lion's share." Lin Shan disagreed with this division.
Jiang Yuan also disagreed, "Yun Huaying, thank you for taking care of me. I can't take so much, my 10% is enough."
"I'll do it as well." Lin Shan had the same idea as her.
"Six and two, let's split it. I'll take six, and you two each."
Yun Huaying didn't want to dwell on such trivial matters. When she heard Han Zheng's footsteps outside, she made a decision: "Okay, it's decided."
Han Zheng helped them carry two loads of water, filling the water tank. When he left, Yun Huaying stuffed the pheasants and wild pigeons that were allocated to him into his backpack and took a packet of powder from the cabinet and gave it to him. "This is the drug I made. Just sprinkle a little bit on the bait. The drug will be effective for eight hours."
"Huaying, thank you." Han Zheng smiled.
"I should thank you for carrying water for me."
Yun Huaying had worked all day and was actually a little tired. He helped fetch water, and she took a good rest.
Han Zheng didn't want her to work too hard. She had never carried a heavy load before, so carrying a load of water was a bit strenuous for her. He said to her, "Huaying, there's a natural cave in the back mountain with groundwater all year round. I'll go and bring this groundwater to your home in a few days. The neighbors in the team near the mountain have all brought water back. They use bamboo, not pipes, so the water has a lot of impurities. After it settles, it's good for bathing, washing clothes, and watering vegetables. For drinking water, it's better to get it from the well."
They don't use much drinking water, and the most water they use is for bathing. If the problem of bathing water is solved, they won't have to fetch water every day.
Yun Huaying was grateful for his help, and the curve of her mouth deepened a little: "Han Zheng, thank you. We will go and help you when you divert the water."
"You don't have to be so polite."
Han Zheng was once again captivated by her smile, but fortunately he had strong self-control and did not show any abnormality on the surface.
When he returned home with the basket on his back, the old man was cooking in the kitchen. Seeing the game in the basket, he said, "Zhengzi, you haven't finished the mutton you bought yet. Give this pheasant to the three young comrades below."
"Grandpa, this is what they gave us."
Han Zheng sat in front of the stove, added a piece of firewood to the furnace, and told him with a smile about Yun Huaying's preparation of medicine and bait.
After listening to this, Mr. Han was thoughtful: "This young comrade's medical skills are not simple."
"She examined Aunt Zhao that day for a maximum of twenty seconds, and the diagnosis she obtained was the same as the one obtained using the hospital's equipment."
Han Zheng had actually guessed that her medical skills were good when she was in Jing County. After all, when she was showing the medical examination list to her leader, she behaved very calmly and professionally, and did not seem like someone who only had medical theory but no practical ability.
But thinking about the current medical environment, it's a pity: "Traditional Chinese medicine has been severely suppressed in recent years. Skilled practitioners have been dragged away for criticism and forced labor. Chinese medical research has basically stagnated, and the industry is basically in a state of interruption. She clearly has superb medical skills, but she rarely displays them, as if she doesn't want others to know. This may also be related to the current environment."
In fact, it is not just traditional Chinese medicine. Many other industries have suffered a heavy blow, and many elite talents have been persecuted. They feel distressed but can do nothing about it.
Old Man Han could only sigh, unable to offer any help. His eyes were sharp but also showed a bit of vicissitudes. "Everyone has their own difficulties. This child is smart and I think he is also very opinionated and has his own ideas. If our Han family can make a comeback in the future, I will help him if I can."
Han Zheng already had a firm idea in his mind. He didn't need his grandfather to tell her about this matter. He would provide help when she needed it.
