"Everyone, please be quiet for a moment. Let me say a few words. The current situation is chaotic, and the world is in turmoil. Although our Xiashan Village is deep in the mountains, any contact with the outside world will be affected to a certain extent."
He glanced around and paused. Everyone was related, and many of the surrounding villages had connections. The current situation was becoming increasingly unstable, so leaving the mountains was inappropriate. Keeping the villagers under control was paramount.
"My only request to you is to be cautious and not show up at this time. You know, although life in the village is a little poor and difficult, it is at least stable and safe."
"Village Chief, we all know this without you saying it."
Those who had experienced war longed for peace. Although they had not experienced many setbacks, they were still extremely vigilant. The village chief had already said that the world outside was in chaos, so they should restrain their children and not let them go out easily.
After all, the mountains are much safer than the outside world. Even wild beasts cannot compare to the horror of human hearts. They have already had profound experiences of this.
The Shen family has been passed down for a hundred years. All the members of the family keep a low profile, which is why they have been able to pass on their legacy without perishing.
"Yes! Village chief, we all know all this. From now on, unless it's something extremely important, we won't go out."
"Well, anyway, we have been able to be self-sufficient."
"Yes, yes, we are already able to be self-sufficient."
The efforts of their ancestors are now benefiting them. As the saying goes, "Those who plant trees will enjoy the shade," this is absolutely true. Xiashan Village is able to enjoy its leisurely life today thanks to the wise ancestors.
"Is there anything else? We still want to discuss the hunting matters."
"Yes, yes, we haven't smelled meat for a long time."
"Well, we have all been short of meat for a long time. Village chief, let's discuss hunting matters."
Hunting was the thing they wanted to discuss most right now; everything else had to come after hunting. Hunting meant they had meat to eat and food to store, so they didn't have to worry about it or resort to eating wild vegetables. Mountain dwellers, mountain dwellers, those who lived by the mountains naturally wanted to live off the land.
"Yes! Let's organize and discuss the hunting arrangements. Look, we all look so gloomy."
Everyone started to act pitiful, their desire to eat meat was obvious, which was both hilarious and infuriating. God knows, these people really can go from frugality to luxury easily, but from luxury to frugality is difficult! Look, after eating too much meat, they naturally can't eat these little side dishes and porridge.
"It's up to you. You're all braver than the sky anyway. I feel more at ease if you set your sights on staying deep in the mountains. If you want to go outside, don't blame me for using the clan rules."
He looked at the group of people who were about to make a move with a warning. Don't think he didn't know the little thoughts in their hearts. There are some things that can be done and some things that cannot be done. They must distinguish clearly. Otherwise, if they get into big trouble, don't blame him for being unkind.
"Don't worry! Village chief, we will be good."
"Yes, yes, we must stay in the village and not go out."
There wasn't much to do outside, and their lives weren't bad. Compared to the people in the city, their lives were quite comfortable and they weren't starving. Plus, without the chaos of the city and the need to interact with too many people, they felt that although their lives were a little poor, they were still quite enjoyable.
"As long as I can eat meat, everything is fine."
The big man beside him said this, and everyone couldn't help but burst out laughing. They hadn't expected that the one who was most greedy for meat was here. Brother Chen had really led many people in their village astray. Look, now everyone is eager to rush into the mountains and get the spoils.
“You guys really are…”
The village chief looked at the villagers, who were clamoring for meat, with a look of dismay. Well, he had nothing to say. What good would it do if no one listened? It really made him extremely depressed.
“Brother Shen, Brother Shen, everyone has time, we must stay for a while this time.”
Only if you harvest a lot can you share the meat. Otherwise, every time you go out, you can only get a few pounds of meat, which is not enough to satisfy their appetite. With so many people, the harvest is not big in one trip, and sometimes it can only satisfy their cravings. Brother Chen is very capable, and every time you go out with him, you can get a lot, so the villagers want Chen Chenfeng to lead the team.
"Yeah! Brother Shen, let's prepare more meat. It won't be so convenient when winter comes."
"Yeah! Brother Shen, let's prepare more meat."
Thinking of having meat to eat in the future, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It was great! This was exactly the kind of life they wanted. If Brother Chen led them into the mountains, they would surely reap a bounty. Follow Brother Chen, and there'll be meat to eat.
"Okay, then you guys discuss it. I don't think you'll be satisfied until you get an exact time. As long as you make the arrangements, I can leave at any time."
Seeing this, Chen Chenfeng could only give a specific time to appease everyone's desire to eat meat. His own Xiao Si really needed to replenish his body. There are many good things in the deep mountains, especially he knew it very well. Now is the time to go there.
A few days ago, I was worried that if something happened to him, the house would be in chaos. Now, with so many villagers around, nothing serious will happen, and I think my wife can rest assured. Now that we have a child, I have more concerns, and I really need to be more cautious.
"That's great. We'll be right back to take care of everything."
"Yes, yes, we need to prepare everything. This time, we'll be staying in the mountains for a while longer."
"Yeah, that's what I thought. We should be well prepared. We have a lot of people this time, and if we don't get much, I'm really worried that the prey will be unevenly divided in the end."
"That's right, that's right. If you stay longer, you can gain more."
It's been so long since I've gone there, I believe I'll definitely be able to harvest a lot this time. The rewards in the mountains are very generous, especially since they are surrounded by mountains, making it extremely convenient to make a living by the mountains.
“Brother Chen, please leave a seat for me. I want to go with you too.”
“Brother Shen, I want to go too, please save a seat for me.”
"Yes, yes, we'll go too."
Everyone who wanted to go gathered around Chen Chenfeng, worried that he wouldn't be willing to take them along. They had never hunted before, and if they joined the hunting team, they would definitely be a burden. However, they were greedy for meat and wanted a share of the spoils.
"If you want to go, please sign up with the village chief and take care of your family affairs. We will set off in five days." Shenchen Fengfeng thought for a moment, looked at the villagers around him and said.
