The village chief was telling the truth.
There were also people undergoing reform in Xiangyang Brigade. They lived in cowsheds and didn't receive work points for their work; those were people with problematic class backgrounds.
Another point is that nowadays, public resources are valued. Even if Shi Lingheng solves a big problem, he can only get a larger share during the distribution process. It is impossible for him to keep it for himself.
Shi Lingheng nodded. That was enough.
Then he said, "Leave this to me."
After saying that, he turned to leave, but Li Dafu jumped up and down anxiously, saying, "You little brat, don't mess around. The things on the mountain are wild and hard to tame. You have nothing. Stop messing around. I'll go to the county town to find someone. At least those people have weapons."
Shi Lingheng is twenty years old this year, in the prime of his life, and he is confident in his abilities.
The village chief snapped out of his daze and tried to stop them, saying, "What if something happens while we're going up the mountain?"
It would be better to go to the county town and find some people with the necessary skills.
Fan Xiaofan had been listening silently the whole time. Now she looked at Shi Lingheng. The man had short, neat hair and eyes like a wolf. He said indifferently, "I don't think the people from the county will come."
The village chief was speechless. Shi Lingheng was right. They knew this wild animal was dangerous. At most, those people from the county town would just take a quick look around the foot of the mountain, complete their tasks, and leave.
They still have to live in constant fear of the big cats and wild boars coming down the mountain at any time.
He looked up and couldn't help but take a drag of his cigarette; he felt uneasy if he didn't have a smoke when something was wrong.
What if something happens to you?
Shi Lingheng's voice rang out calmly: "This is my own choice."
Is it worth it for that little bit of meat?
The village chief asked.
Shi Lingheng looked at him: "It's worth it. When you're starving, what food isn't precious?"
The village chief sighed. He felt that Shi Lingheng was just as recklessly bold as the hunter from the village before, and he only hoped that he would not end up like that hunter, perishing in the belly of a big cat.
Shi Lingheng valued the meat not for his own gluttony, but because he knew that his family in Beidu was probably not doing well, and he couldn't bear to see them go hungry. This little bit of meat could at least fill their stomachs.
Moreover, a glint flashed in his eyes as he thought of Yu Qing, the man who had been following him all along. He had to find a way to get rid of him. Even if someone else was sent over, he could take advantage of the time difference.
Why not do it if it achieves multiple benefits at once? Besides, Shi Lingheng isn't blindly arrogant; he genuinely has the ability. Although he might inevitably suffer some injuries in the end, a small price to pay for a good result is enough.
Fan Xiaofan looked at Shi Lingheng. "A big shot is a big shot indeed, he looks so domineering..."
She couldn't handle it; she was a coward and cherished her life. When she first heard it, she wanted to stay far away.
If Ruan Jiu were here, that would be great. He's always been a great help to the boss.
She raised her little hand to express her opinion: "We can't just go up the mountain like this. Big cats and wild boars are not easy to deal with. I think the village chief is right. If you don't want to use those people, you should at least borrow a few guns."
Before Shi Lingheng could refuse, the village chief spoke up: "Human life is at stake, I'll go and apply."
Shi Lingheng nodded, accepting the kindness of the village chief and Fan Xiaofan.
Just as things were settled, Yu Qing, who had been following Shi Lingheng around like glue, came knocking on the door, looking completely at ease: "I was wondering where you went after work without telling me, and I was so worried looking for you..."
His familiar demeanor caught Fan Xiaofan's eye, and she unconsciously pursed her lips.
