"Shh~~"
Joseph raised his index finger to his lips.
They were now standing downwind, and the brown bear couldn't smell them, but it still had to work quietly.
Xia Yu only has one chance to shoot, because deer bullets cannot kill bears. If his first single bullet fails to kill the bear, Joseph will have to shoot him later, which means the hunt has failed.
It is not the style of the rich man to give up easily. Xia Yu took a deep breath, slowly raised the hunting rifle in his hand, and aimed at the heart and lung area just above the forelimbs of the big guy.
Brown bears are sturdy and have hard and thick skulls. Even if you hit their heads, you may not be able to penetrate them. The best choice is to target their tender heart and lungs.
Jiang Baiying, who was squatting behind him, looked at Xia Yu nervously, repeating in her heart that she must hit him.
"Dong~~"
Just then, gunshots were heard, thick smoke rose, and a huge brown bear less than fifty meters away fell down.
“Huh~~”
Xia Yu breathed a sigh of relief. His hunting trip had come to a successful conclusion.
A brown bear, a mountain lion, and two gray wolves—not a bad record.
"Nice shot, Sherlock. You must have been a professional hunter in your previous life."
"No, I think it should be a cook."
Xia Yu said as he pulled out the shell. He was a little impatient to cook a bear meat feast.
"I'll skin them, David, you help me, you guys still have to be on guard!"
"no problem."
After Joseph made some arrangements, everyone got busy.
The end of hunting does not mean the end of danger. When you are in the wild, you never know what will happen next.
For example, when Joseph was halfway through skinning an animal, a snow rabbit ran in front of them in a panic. Xia Yu thought this was the century's best strategy of waiting for a rabbit to appear, but the next second a snow-white fox followed out.
Wow, it looks pretty. I just wonder if if I let it go, it will crawl into his tent at night to repay me?
It is easy to have wild thoughts when reading too many novels. Xia Yu still hasn't gotten rid of this bad habit, but he didn't shoot either. He just watched the fox and the rabbit go back into the woods.
The hunt is over, so there is no need to add to the killing. He is not a butcher, right?
Joseph continued to peel the skin and soon peeled off the entire brown bear skin. Xia Yu squatted down and touched it. Apart from feeling a little smelly, the fur was still very shiny and soft. It seemed that the bear had eaten a lot of salmon.
"Xiao Jiang, do you want me to make you a bearskin coat?"
"I don't want it. I'll look ugly in it."
Jiang Baiying had no interest in fur and had an instinctive aversion to the big stupid bear, so she shook her head and refused.
"Then I'll take it back and make a carpet!"
Writer Leo Tolstoy owned a bearskin rug, but he had to kill the brown bear twice and nearly died at its claws.
Xia Yu knew this story from his high school Chinese reading comprehension lesson, but he never expected that he would soon own his own bearskin rug.
There are two pieces of lion skin for making tapestry. I have two pieces of wolf skin, so I will cover the chair in his study with them to keep warm in the winter.
After thinking about the uses of the furs in his mind, Xia Yu handed the gun to Jiang Baiying and joined the two brothers in collecting the bear meat.
Excluding the internal organs, bones, and fur, the meat content of a 500-kilogram animal is still not low.
Bear paws, which are more sensitive in China, are cooked on the spot, and most of the meat is made into bacon and jerky. The Joseph brothers are entrusted to find an agency to quarantine them and send them back to China so that their parents can have a taste of them.
Of course, canned bear meat produced in Russia can also be purchased in China. Xia Yu has also watched a lot of unboxing videos, but it is rumored that the taste is not very good. To put it bluntly, the craftsmanship is not good enough.
Xia Yu's cooking skills are beyond reproach. He took out the steamer he brought specially for this time and extended his expired cooking buff for another day.
Steamed lamb, steamed bear paws, steamed deer tails... these are mentioned in crosstalk, and you can do this in real life as long as it is legal.
First, clean the bear paw with hot alkaline water, then simmer on low heat for two hours, remove the old skin and put it in a steamer. Onion, ginger, yellow wine and peppercorns are also indispensable.
Joseph and David were stunned by the complicated operation. Are all Chinese people great chefs?
It’s over, and it’s hard to explain. Chinese people are not only great chefs, but they all know kung fu.
After a lot of trouble, the group finally got to eat steamed bear paws before dark.
Well, that taste is rare in the world.
"Xiao Jiang, eat more. This is more nutritious than pig's trotters."
Whether pig's trotters can supplement collagen is a false proposition, but bear paws are well-known to be a tonic. Xia Yu plans to take this opportunity to nourish Jiang Baiying well, after all, she is still growing!
He could only say sorry to his senior sister. Not to mention that it was impossible for her to grow up at her age, even if he wanted to, he couldn't take her back!
"Mm, Senior, what you cooked is really delicious."
While eating the bear paw in small bites, Jiang Baiying thought of how Xia Yu treated her to yellow croaker before she went abroad. She could only say that it was good to follow her senior, as she could eat a lot of things she had only heard of.
"It's delicious, right? Look how ignorant these foreigners are. They only know how to have three barbecues a day."
Xia Yu said this and glanced at the two brothers who were gnawing on roasted bear meat next to him.
Foreigners' tastes are partly similar to those of Chinese people, but there are also big differences. They prefer frying, grilling and grilling to steaming, and they use whatever oil they can get. They don't know that steaming, which retains the best flavor of the ingredients, is the ultimate taste.
"Forget about them. Let's eat our food and stay overnight. We'll go back to Vancouver tomorrow."
The hunting trip was over and they had to go back. To be honest, Xia Yu still missed Jiang Baiying's small apartment. No matter how warm the sleeping bag was, it was not as comfortable as Jiang Baiying's bed, even if the real person was sleeping next to him.
"Senior, are you leaving the day after tomorrow?"
"Well, the restaurant chain is opening on New Year's Day, and I can't be away then."
You can go out to play, but you still have to get busy with work after playing. Although Xia Yu is poor, he still takes his work very seriously.
"Okay, when I have summer vacation, can I come to your company for internship again?"
Jiang Baiying thought for a while and said that last time she interned at Xia Ji, this time she wanted to intern at Xia Yu Company.
"You're welcome anytime. I happen to be in need of a secretary!"
Xia Yu teased Jiang Baiying.
"Just do it. It's not like others haven't done it before."
Jiang Baiying is quite familiar with the job of secretary. Even if she changes the job this time, she believes that she can still do the job well.
"Okay, I'll wait for you back in the country."
Xia Yu estimated that by the time Jiang Baiying had her summer vacation, he would have completed his mission and increased the valuation of Xia’s Catering to over 2 billion.
I don’t know if Xiao Jiang will still have the confidence he has now by then, and he is looking forward to that day.
After dinner, the Joseph brothers were still on duty for the first and second half of the night, while Xia Yu was on duty before dawn. After a simple wash, he and Jiang Baiying went into the tent together.
It snowed that night, and the forest, which was full of dangers, fell into a rare silence. Both of them slept well.
