The village became lively.
Wild boars are very ferocious and have bad tempers. They usually hunt in groups of several, making them difficult to hunt.
You're lucky to catch one occasionally.
Catching two at once is really awesome.
It was already afternoon and many fishermen had returned and gathered around to watch the fun.
"Brother Chen is so awesome!"
"Yes, he carried such a big wild boar back by himself! He is so strong!"
"Of course not! Look at how rosy-cheeked Madam Zhou is every day, and you can tell how strong Brother Chen is!"
"Ye Gou and Er Ma Zi were both so tired from carrying a sow that their faces turned red. There is really no harm without comparison!"
"More than that. Look at the injuries on the two wild boars. Apart from their eyes, there are no other injuries. This means that all four arrows shot by Chen Ge hit their eyes without missing. His archery skills are truly amazing!"
"A hundred steps to shoot an arrow through the air is the best way to describe Chen Ge'er's archery skills!"
"Mrs. Zhou is so blessed!"
"Look, Miss Zhou is here!"
Qin Hongyu ran over in a hurry and was surprised and happy to see Zhou Chen carrying a big wild boar. She didn't expect that Zhou Chen really hunted a wild boar.
Still at both ends.
Especially when Zhou Chen carried a big wild boar by himself, his majestic and imposing figure as still as a mountain made Qin Hongyu's legs tighten and honey seemed to flow in her heart.
Women all admire strong men.
Who doesn’t want their man to be powerful?
If a man is strong, no one dares to bully him!
Qin Hongyu hurried to Zhou Chen's side, her eyes seemed to be dripping with water, her admiration and adoration were beyond words.
"Hello, sister-in-law!"
Wild Dog and Ermaizi shouted quickly.
"Hongyu, I'm going to sell these two wild boars first!"
Zhou Chen brought the wild dog and Er Mazi carried the wild boar to the grain shop, which was a branch of the Chamber of Commerce.
Not only does it deal in grain, it also buys and sells other things.
The shopkeeper heard the noise outside and came out with two waiters.
When he saw the big wild boar Zhou Chen was carrying, even he was secretly shocked.
He was not surprised by the wild boar, but by Zhou Chen's strength.
"Brother Chen is really capable!"
The shopkeeper knew Zhou Chen. In the past, Old Man Cao often brought Zhou Chen here to sell game and buy daily necessities such as food.
"Shopkeeper Zhao, I'm selling these two wild boars!"
Zhou Chen put the wild boar down, then picked up the wild dog and the sow carried by Ermazi and put them together, and said to Zhao Yuan.
"Brother Chen, you are also an old customer. These two wild boars weigh about 600 kilograms in total. I will give you a reasonable price of ten taels of silver. What do you think?"
Zhao Yuan looked at the two wild boars and their injuries. It was obvious that Zhou Chen's archery skills were better than his master's and far superior to old man Cao's.
Moreover, Zhou Chen is quite strong. Maybe he was born with supernatural powers, or maybe he has practiced some martial arts. He is also a big figure in this village.
We will definitely be able to catch a lot of prey in the future.
"Okay, Shopkeeper Zhao is straightforward!"
Zhou Chen smiled and didn't bargain.
The price is quite suitable.
Ordinary pork costs 20 wen per pound, so 600 pounds of pork only costs 12 taels of silver.
He hasn't slaughtered the two wild boars yet.
However, wild boar meat is more expensive than ordinary pork. If it is a wild boar that has become a spirit, the price will be much more expensive.
Because that is monster meat.
If you sell a vicious tiger like the one Zhang Long killed yesterday, it would start at at least one hundred taels of silver.
After selling the wild boar, Zhou Chen bought 20 kilograms of salt and other daily necessities.
Salt is not expensive, only ten cents per pound.
Including other daily necessities, it cost less than one or two taels of silver.
But one or two taels of silver is not a small amount.
Qin Hongyu felt a little distressed but also happy and went home with Zhou Chen while holding the things she bought.
Wild Dog and Ermazi followed behind with pheasants and rabbits.
Back home.
Zhou Chen took out two dead wild boars, two wild rabbits and two pheasants and gave them to Wild Dog and Er Mazi:
"Thank you for your hard work today!"
"What are you talking about, Brother Chen? This is just a small matter. If you need me in the future, Brother Chen will be there whenever you ask me to!"
Wild Dog and Ermaizi patted their chests loudly.
"Okay, go back and rest!"
Zhou Chen sent them away.
The two men were also considerate and happily left with the wild boars, rabbits and pheasants.
After going out, the two of them deliberately took a detour around the village, which aroused the envy of everyone.
"Comfortable!"
Under the envious gazes of everyone, the two men, who were already exhausted, finally returned home and dealt with the prey they had obtained.
Zhou Chen and Qin Hongyu were also dealing with it.
Zhou Chen did not touch the four living little wild boars for the time being. He raised them and ate them fresh.
“We’re having braised suckling pig tonight!”
After dealing with the remaining dead piglet, he handed it over to Qin Hongyu in the kitchen, while Zhou Chen continued to deal with other rabbits and pheasants.
Skin the hare and take out its internal organs.
The pheasants were plucked and their internal organs removed.
Then apply salt and hang it to dry.
After finishing, Zhou Chen took out the little fox and stroked it.
The little fox seemed to have been tamed.
It lay on Zhou Chen's lap with a look of enjoyment. Zhou Chen rubbed its furry head and said with a smile:
"Since you're so well behaved, I won't lock you in the cage tonight!"
It doesn't matter even if he runs away.

After stroking the little fox for a while, Qin Hongyu also prepared the meal.
A pot of braised suckling pig and a big bowl of fried chicken offal.
Qin Hongyu gave Zhou Chen a big bowl of rice.
"Brother Chen, you are becoming more and more like a glutton!"
Qin Hongyu teased.
"If I don't eat more, how can I gain strength?"
Zhou Chen smiled and looked at Qin Hongyu: "How can I feed you if I don't have the strength?"
Qin Hongyu blushed and picked up a large piece of fat meat and stuffed it into Zhou Chen's mouth:
"All this meat can't stop your mouth!"
"Your talent is the best!"
"What are you talking about!"
Both of them ate their fill and felt happy both physically and mentally.
Especially Qin Hongyu, who almost fainted from happiness when she saw Zhou Chen killed two wild boars today and earned ten taels of silver.
"After eating, you should move more!"
Zhou Chen picked up Qin Hongyu and strode towards the bedroom.
"Oh, the little fox is still not closed!"
"Never mind!"
“Turn off the lights!”
"No, we don't need that little bit of gas money!"
"Bad guy!"
"Ah, there...don't..."
…
For ten days in a row, Zhou Chen did not go out.
The little fox was well fed and didn't run away.
Wild Dog, Ermaizi and other hunters wanted to go hunting with Zhou Chen, but Zhou Chen refused and stayed at home all day.
Now everyone saw it.
Zhou Chen is a capable person, but he is lazy.
After each hunting trip, he would go home and bother his wife. He would not go out hunting until the food at home was gone.
Two days later, because Zhou Chen's appetite grew bigger and bigger and the meat at home was almost eaten up, Zhou Chen had to go out hunting.
This time Zhou Chen brought Wild Dog, Er Mazi and two other hunters.
He found a group of sika deer and shot four of the largest ones in a row, each weighing over two hundred pounds.
He carried two by himself, and the remaining two were carried by the other four.
After returning to the village.
Zhou Chen took off the antlers, took out one and gave it to the four wild dogs. He sold two of them and all the antlers, and kept one for himself to eat.
Deer are more expensive than wild boars, especially their antlers, which Zhou Chen sold for another fifteen taels of silver.
After returning home, Zhou Chen continued to stay at home.
Qin Hongyu was also very satisfied with this, but she just couldn't stand it a little.
She felt that Zhou Chen had not only grown stronger, but also grown bigger in other parts of his body.
Zhou Chen was originally eighteen years old, but she felt like she was already twenty-two years old.
"Brother Chen, didn't you secretly give yourself a massage with the Thunder Light Ruyi Hand?"
"Nonsense! I'm only eighteen years old, and I'm still growing up. This is normal secondary development!"
Zhou Chen spoke sternly and righteously, and what he said was true.
Although Zhou Chen only went hunting once every ten days or so, he always returned with a full load.
Now the family savings exceed twenty taels of silver.
Twenty-four taels to be exact.
He is considered wealthy in the village.
Zhou Chen is waiting, and will go to Qinghe City after he breaks through.
First of all, good bows are only available in the city.
Secondly, he also wanted to know more about this world.
You have to go to the city.
People in the countryside are isolated from information and don’t know much about the outside world. Many times they don’t even know how they died.
In a flash, another twenty days passed.
During this period, Zhou Chen went hunting again, still hunting sika deer, and earned another 15 taels of silver.
The weather was getting colder, and a layer of white frost formed on the grass and leaves on the roadside.
In a warm room.
Zhou Chen looked at Qin Hongyu who was sleeping soundly in his arms, with a few traces of happy tears on her rosy face.
He didn't interrupt and quietly left, his eyes full of excitement and anticipation.

"It's been a month, and I can finally enter the ranks of a true warrior!"
Resisting his excitement, Zhou Chen shouted excitedly in his heart: "Add some more!"
