Chapter 960: Do a Big Job
Time soon came to the end of December. In order to let everyone have a better meal during the New Year, Haishi Base organized a team to go out hunting.
This year is different from last year. Last year it was a personal event, and the prey brought back was split in half with the base. But this year it is an official organization, with many people participating, so the distribution has naturally changed.
Fortunately, the base will provide certain support, such as ox carts, guns, ammunition, tents, sleeping bags and other cold-proof supplies.
Shen Yanming was called by Li Gangtie again. Although he was not very willing, he had no legitimate reason to refuse. In this case, he should prepare well.
I wore extremely warm underwear from top to bottom, then put a heat pack on through the underwear, and finally put on a sweater and down jacket.
Hats, gloves, masks, etc. There are also ginger soup, milk, and vegetarian buns.
After everything was ready, Shen Yanming went out before dawn. Li Gangtie was already waiting downstairs, as was Qi Lin.
"The boy has grown taller again. In two days, he might surpass me." Shen Yanming said with a smile.
Qi Lin nodded shyly: "Hello, Uncle Shen!"
"Where's your dad? Has he arrived at the gate of the base?"
"Well, there are a lot of people over there, and he is maintaining order over there."
"Okay then, let's go over there quickly!" Shen Yanming said as he walked out.
Li Gangtie took his backpack, lifted it, and felt it was quite heavy.
"You brought a lot of things. Do you have any buns?" he asked.
Shen Yanming nodded: "Yes, this time it's stuffed with cabbage, radish and potato."
"Sure. I haven't had breakfast yet, so it's a good time to fill my stomach later." Li Gangtie smiled and rubbed his fingers.
Shen Yanming rolled his eyes, but didn't refuse. He just asked, "Has Qi Lin eaten?"
"I ate it, uncle."
"It's okay. Uncle brought a lot. I'll treat you to some hot vegetarian buns later. Your Aunt Qiao An's cooking skills are pretty good." Even if her cooking skills weren't great, with the space spiritual spring water and vegetables grown in the space, the taste wouldn't be bad.
Qi Lin nodded gratefully: "Thank you, uncle!"
Li Gangtie couldn't stand it when he heard this. He put his arm around Shen Yanming's shoulders and said, "You kid, you are so nice to Xiao Linzi, why are you so bad to me?"
Shen Yanming: “…Are you jealous of a child?”
Li Gangtie bared his teeth fiercely and said fiercely: "Humph, bad guy!"
Shen Yanming laughed: "That's enough, you are not afraid of being laughed at by children."
"He's still a child. Little Linzi is already 1.8 meters tall, isn't he?"
"That's still a minor. Qi Lin, how old are you this year? Are you 18?"
Qi Lin smiled shyly: "No uncle, I'm seventeen and I'll be an adult in a few months."
"That's okay, they are still children before they reach adulthood."
Qi Lin didn't say anything, Li Gangtie glared at Shen Yanming and changed the subject: "Your buddy is not participating this year?"
"No, I'm married now, I have concerns, and I'm afraid something might happen."
Li Gangtie nodded: "Yeah, it was so dangerous last year, it's normal that he didn't want to go. I hope everything will go well this year."
Shen Yanming smiled and said, "Yes."
As they talked, they soon arrived at the gate of the base.
Qi Xili was already waiting there. Seeing them coming, he smiled and said, "Hurry up and get in the car. We'll set off right away."
Shen Yanming nodded, and got on one of the horse-drawn sleighs with Li Gangtie and Qi Lin. Most of the people on this sleigh were acquaintances, and after they greeted each other, Li Gangtie couldn't wait to ask Shen Yanming for buns.
Shen Yanming was not stingy either, he directly took out a lunch box and let Li Gangtie take it himself. Comrade Li not only took two, but also took one for Xiao Linzi, and asked the people around him: "Do you want any?"
"Yes, Xiao Shen's buns are delicious." Liang Huaxin said with a smile and took one.
But before taking it, he asked, "How much did you bring today? Is it enough to eat?"
Shen Yanming shook his backpack and signaled to everyone: "We brought a lot, enough for us to eat."
In this case, Liang Huaxin was not polite. So were the others.
After finishing the buns, Shen Yanming put the lunch box into his bag. Only then did he have the energy to observe the entire team.
There were about a hundred people, all of whom had come last year. There were also some new faces, but from their interactions with others, I knew they were all veteran guards.
They all smiled kindly when they met Shen Yanming's gaze. Comrade Lao Shen also nodded, which was considered a greeting.
In order to carry more prey, not only ten horse-drawn sleighs but also a large truck were dispatched.
However, the trucks were slow and could not climb the mountain, and there were some places they could not go to. They could only stay at the foot of the mountain to load the prey for them.
"Captain Li, where are we going this year?" Shen Yanming discovered that the direction they were heading was the same as last year.
"Let's go to the same mountain as before. Although it's a bit scary to encounter a pack of wolves, we have more people this year and we are well prepared. If we encounter dozens of wolves, we will be rich."
"There are still fish. If we catch more fish in that river, this trip will not be in vain," Chang Anhui added.
"I know your fish!" Li Gangtie slapped Chang Anhui on the forehead: "You are very good."
Chang Anhui chuckled and touched his head without showing any anger.
After walking for more than three hours, the group finally reached the destination. This time, because the goal was clear, everyone did not split up and headed straight for the river on the mountain.
But we did not miss any holes along the way, including those on the ground, in the trees, and in the piles of rocks.
So before they even reached the river, the team had caught more than thirty rabbits and seventeen or eighteen snakes, which made those who were participating in the hunt for the first time very excited.
All the prey were tied together. Shen Yanming smiled and turned his consciousness to the space.
Bi Qiaoan had already gotten up. After having breakfast, he slowly walked to the storage area, lazily lay on the bird's nest hanging chair, and looked outside.
Shen Yanming had noticed her early in the morning, but someone was talking to him the whole time, so he had no chance to communicate with his wife.
Now that everyone was busy, he could have a good chat with his wife.
"Dear, isn't An An Nuan Nuan coming?"
"No, they are still asleep."
Shen Yanming laughed softly: "You made too much noise last night, so you may not be able to get up this morning."
"It's because you want to go out that the two babies are pestering you and not letting you sleep. Alas, I don't know why they are so attached to you!" Bi Qiaoan pretended to complain.
Chen Yanming's lips curled up: "The two little ones are just pestering me on purpose, do you think they really can't bear to leave me?"
Bi Qiaoan couldn't help laughing. After he finished laughing, he asked, "Is this the mountain from last year?"
"Yes, we will soon reach the place where we fish."
Bi Qiaoan nodded: "Are you coming back tonight?"
"I don't know. Most likely they won't go. Captain Li said it would take two or three days. There are so many people coming this time, so I'm afraid we'll have to do something big."
