Chapter 100: Trading for Wild Boars



*Sorry, I was delayed by visiting the school*

Until the day he sent Tao Ju and his wife on the plane, Zhang Hongcheng still hadn't made a decision.

This trip to the airport to see him off also allowed Zhang Hongcheng to understand from the side the power of his father, the old leader.

In this era, regimental-level cadres generally did not have the privilege of riding on an airplane.

The weather in July is getting hotter day by day. The climate in the wetlands of the entire Northeast is the most special. It is so hot that you can die from the heat, and the cool places are even several degrees lower than outside.

Zhang Hongcheng walked out of the office with a palm-leaf fan, ready to go take a look at the cornfield.

When going to the fields in the morning, some educated youth said they saw the shadow of a wild boar.

The technicians stationed at the wetland were also puzzled by this. They believed that wild boars should have no shortage of food in the wetlands at this season and there was no need for them to enter human territory without permission.

When the name of wild boar was mentioned, Zhang Hongcheng felt a little worried.

This thing is extremely destructive to crops, especially corn fields and sweet potato and potato fields.

And they come in a large nest.

The independent wetland row catches a lot of fish and crayfish every day, but I’m not really tempted by the tough wild boar meat.

The only thing that Zhang Hongcheng liked was that a lot of oil could be extracted from wild boars.

But in such a hot day, I guess few people would be willing to go out in the sun and water to hunt wild boars.

Especially recently, there are so many kinds of insects in the undeveloped areas of the wetlands that it's frightening.

Thanks to Chu Miaohong's space-strengthened medicinal powder, mosquitoes found it difficult to get close to the educated youth point.

After squatting at the door for a few minutes to bask in the sun, Zhang Hongcheng, sweating profusely, gritted his teeth and stood up to go to the infirmary next door.

Ever since they had a few inexplicable words together that night, Zhang Hongcheng has been trying his best to avoid Chu Miaohong these days.

When Chu Miaohong, who was preparing medicine, saw Zhang Hongcheng come in, a trace of unnaturalness flashed across her face.

She has actually been hiding in Zhang Hongcheng these days.

Chu Miaohong had been abroad and seen the world in her previous life, but she never thought that she would meet someone who made her fall in love in Northeast China.

She was the only one in the entire educated youth center who saw that Zhang Hongcheng intended to advance in his career.

It was precisely because she knew what Zhang Hongcheng was thinking that Chu Miaohong "wisely" controlled herself from continuing to "think wildly".

Because she could not provide Zhang Hongcheng with as much help as Comrade Ding Xiang in this regard.

Moreover, his own family will inevitably affect Zhang Hongcheng's future, so it is better to be friends...

Zhang Hongcheng didn't speak after entering the room. He was choosing his words carefully.

Because the relationship between the two is very delicate now.

He didn't want his words to contain any meaning that could be misunderstood.

The reason why Zhang Hongcheng was so obsessed with this, instead of just joking around like before, was naturally because he also knew that he was probably in love...

Before the last layer of window paper was broken, Zhang Hongcheng felt that he should remain cautious.

"Xiao Chu, what do you think about the wild boar incident?"

Chu Miaohong lowered her head and didn't look at him, her hands still busy.

"I'm not a veterinarian, so don't ask me."

"Then do you have medicine that can cure wild boar poison?"

Chu Miaohong pointed to the four packaged Chinese medicines on the table.

"Just grind it into powder, dissolve it in water, and soak the bait overnight."

Zhang Hongcheng happily reached out to take it.

"This counts as two days' work points for you!"

Chu Miaohong lowered her head and continued to pack up the medical instruments, seemingly too lazy to pay attention to him.

Zhang Hongcheng was about to leave with the Chinese medicine bag in his hand with a beaming face, but he heard Chu Miaohong say something coldly.

"Lie down and look at your old injuries."

"Well, it's already healed, there's no need to look at it..."

Chu Miaohong just nodded and didn't say anything else.

The medicine she prepared was very effective. After eating the corn mixed with the medicine, more than twenty wild boars, big and small, fell to the ground and fell asleep within a quarter of an hour after eating.

The educated youth loved to see pigs being slaughtered.

But their technique was still too poor. The wild boar, after being stabbed several times, screamed and broke free from the ropes, running around the yard, its condition almost doubled.

If it weren't for Wangcai and Lai Fu's help, the pig almost escaped with the knife.

Finally, Chu Miaohong couldn't bear it any longer, so she took out a white crayon and drew a circle somewhere on the wild boar's head. Zhang Hongcheng cut in the direction with a knife, and the miserable wild boar was immediately killed.

Among the twenty or so wild boars, the largest one weighed 700 kilograms. It was the first time that Zhang Hongcheng saw such a big wild boar.

He picked up two wild boars weighing more than 400 kilograms and two little wild boars, and took his men to load the pigs onto a tractor and rushed to the branch office.

There were two big wild boars, one at the battalion headquarters and one at the regimental headquarters.

I saw a wild boar weighing more than 400 kilograms.

This time, even Pan Jingshan, who usually had a bad face when seeing Zhang Hongcheng, smiled.

These days, even cadres’ families are short of meat.

Before Zhang Hongcheng came to perform a favor, he had already given some warnings to the people accompanying him.

You are not allowed to talk about the abundance of fish and crayfish in the wetlands.

He didn't want to be the salvage group of the entire battalion or even the entire regiment.

This time he generously sent wild boars to the battalion and regiment headquarters, mainly because Zhang Hongcheng had taken a fancy to some "things" from the battalion and regiment headquarters.

The battalion's brick factory recently trial-produced a batch of high-strength blue bricks, intending to use them in conjunction with special cement to build high-strength fortifications.

Unfortunately, the trial production was not very successful and the seismic resistance index of the blue bricks did not meet the standards.

This batch of blue bricks had been left at the camp headquarters for several months without anyone paying attention to them - they were too luxurious to use for building houses, and in order to avoid gossip, Pan Jingshan would rather leave them unused.

"How many semi-permanent firing fortifications do you want to build?"

Cao Fuhu touched his chin and thought about the suggestion made by Zhang Hongcheng.

The pig head meat contributed by the wild boar was still chewing between his lips and teeth.

Pan Jingshan's eyes lit up.

It was he who strongly advocated the trial production of blue bricks. Although all the companies coveted these bricks, no one dared to ask for them.

Because I asked for this batch of blue bricks, I have to take the blame for him.

"Most of the wetland is water and flat land, stretching as far as the eye can see." Pan Jingshan tapped the table and nodded repeatedly. "If we don't have a few shooting points with cover, it's really not easy to defend."

Cao Fuhu naturally knew what Pan Jingshan was thinking, but since Zhang Hongcheng wanted it himself, he was happy to do him a favor.

After all, this wild boar is not small.

After getting the blue bricks for the battalion headquarters, Zhang Hongcheng took another big wild boar and two little wild boars to the regiment headquarters.

The two little wild boars were given to the Youth League Office, which greatly enhanced Deputy Director Liu's reputation in the office.

The big wild boar was sent directly to the gate of the regiment headquarters.

The current head of the group is Li Guangjin. He did not bother to be polite with Zhang Hongcheng and directly asked the canteen to kill the pig. He then asked Zhang Hongcheng what he wanted.

Before Tao Ju left, he asked him to look after the boy, as long as the boy didn't want to go to heaven...

"I heard there's a batch of cement coming out of the regiment headquarters, and we're planning to build a few underground bunkers in the wetlands..."

"You're quite well-informed, eh? Okay, but not much."
