Chen Yan listened attentively, tightened his grip on the iron rod and machete, and whispered:
"I'll lure it here, wait for it to fall into the trap, and then kill it."
"Brother Yan, be careful!"
Han Dashuan was extremely excited. Based on the sound made by the wild boar's movements, he guessed that the beast must weigh at least 200 kilograms.
If I can sell it overnight, I can make a lot of money. I’m excited just thinking about it.
Chen Yan moved quickly and knocked hard on a big rock, attracting the wild boar's attention.
In the blink of an eye, the wild boar saw a living person, roared twice, and rushed over quickly.
Chen Yan also ran quickly towards the trap, but not long after he ran, he heard the miserable cry of the wild boar.
Han Dashuan's heart finally settled down.
"Brother Yan, are you okay?!"
"rest assured!"
After saying that, both of them looked at the wild boar struggling in the trap.
"Shame! It's even bigger than I thought. Luckily the trap is big enough, otherwise it wouldn't be able to hold it!"
Han Dashuan laughed and raised the sharpened iron rod, then stabbed it hard into the wild boar's eyes.
Three hours later, the two men carried the wild boar and a dozen rabbits and pheasants down another path on the side of the mountain.
Han Dashuan had already harnessed the donkey cart to the side of the path.
He was taken to the black market overnight.
When I came back from the black market, it was just dawn.
Chen Yan was anxious to get home, so he drove the donkey as fast as he could along the way.
"Brother Yan, the donkey must be tired after working with us all night. Look how badly you beat the donkey. I feel bad for it."
This is the only donkey in Han Dashuan's family, and he treasures it like a treasure.
"We'll go up the mountain again in three days."
Chen Yan glanced at him and said, "Hit another wild boar."
"Hehe...Brother Yan, I'm just saying, donkeys aren't that valuable."
Han Dashuan scratched his head embarrassedly.
The sales amounted to 420 yuan, 210 yuan each for them.
This money was earned by Chen Yan at the risk of his life, so when Han Dashuan heard that they were going to the back mountain again, he was very happy.
"Brother Yan, you didn't work so hard before. Now that you have a wife, it's different."
Han Dashuan asked him while driving.
"My wife is weak and can't do farm work. I'm afraid she'll suffer if she follows me, so I want to earn more money for her."
Chen Yan was busy all night, with money in his pocket. He thought about his wife and felt at ease.
If I work hard a few more times a month, I won’t have to worry about buying anything my wife wants.
When they returned to the Shen family's yard, Gu Keqing had already gotten up, washed, and was carrying a backpack, preparing to go out.
"You're back! I was so worried about you."
She hurriedly took Chen Yan's hand, looked him up and down, and after making sure he was not injured, she led him into the house.
Gu Keqing brought him a bowl of warm water and said:
"Breakfast is warming up in the pot. Eat some yourself. Don't go to work this morning. Rest at home."
"I'm not sleepy!"
When Chen Yan saw that his wife cared about him so much, he felt a warm current flowing through his heart.
"Even if you're not sleepy, you still need to rest. If you don't sleep enough, you'll pass out. Earning a few less work points won't kill you. I'll ask Shen Ming to ask for leave from the team leader for you later."
Gu Keqing deliberately frowned and scolded him.
"Then... I'll listen to my wife. However, I can skip work and go to the city with you. I'm worried about you being alone."
Chen Yan took out 210 yuan from his pocket and handed it to Gu Keqing.
"You don't have to follow me. I'll go to my little sister's house after entering the city. It would be inconvenient for you to go there. Be obedient."
Gu Keqing collected the money and put it into the space.
Then she smiled and kissed him on the lips, then prepared to get up.
