It was soon eight o'clock in the evening, and Mai Sui and the other two went out stealthily.
Mai Sui asked Mai Laosan and Mai Hongcai to guard the foot of the mountain, and she went into the mountain alone.
Five thousand years from now, humans will have much stronger physical strength and five senses than people today because of long-term exposure to radiation.
This can also be said to be a kind of evolution, but it is just forced.
If you can't adapt, you will die.
No one knows how many people have died in this five thousand years of history.
When Mai Laosan saw Mai Sui disappear into the dark woods in a flash, he felt a little worried.
So, I decided to follow and see.
Mai Hongcai naturally followed in his father's footsteps.
However, Mai Sui was moving too fast and Mai Lao San and his friends couldn’t catch up at all.
Mai Laosan wanted to follow the traces on the ground, but it looked like this one and that one too, and he couldn't accurately determine the direction in which Mai Sui went.
Mai Laosan can only choose the direction he thinks is right based on his intuition.
As a result, they got lost...
You know, Mai Laosan and Mai Hongcai are natives of Lianhua Village. They have been to this forest countless times.
It’s just that he usually comes during the day and hardly ever comes at night.
Moreover, they only dared to move around on the outskirts of the forest and had never entered the deep mountains.
The visibility at night is not as good as during the day. Mai Laosan followed Mai Sui's footsteps and walked away unknowingly.
When the two found themselves lost, they were completely panicked.
Just at this moment, a wolf howled in the forest, and the two were so scared that they hugged each other and trembled.
"Dad, what should we do? Will we die here?" Mai Hongcai's voice was filled with tears.
"Don't be afraid, it's okay. Let's climb up the tree. If your sister comes back and finds that we are not here, she will definitely ask your uncle to save us."
"Yes, yes, my sister and uncle will definitely come to rescue us!"
"Climb the tree!"
The two men no longer dared to run around. After climbing up the tree, they held on to the trunk tightly, anxiously waiting for rescue.
Mai Sui carried a wild boar back to the foot of the mountain, but did not see Mai Lao San and the other man.
She took a quick look at the surroundings and found that they were most likely going up the mountain, so she angrily threw the wild boar directly into the stinky ditch nearby.
Damn!
These two guys who are always causing trouble but not being able to do anything good, I must give them a good beating when I get home tonight!
Mai Sui used branches to cover the wild boar in the stinky ditch, and then based on the clues on the ground, he quickly chased in the direction of Mai Lao San and the others.
Mai Sui's tracking technology is much better than Mai Lao San's. He found Mai Lao San and his companions in less than half an hour.
They were so nervous that they didn't notice the wheat ears approaching, and they were still muttering to themselves:
"Amitabha, I pray for the blessing of the Mountain God, the Land God, and the Bodhisattva Guanyin..."
Mai Sui kicked the big tree where the two were hiding in annoyance.
The tree trunk immediately shook violently, and Mai Laosan and Mai Hongcai screamed in fear: "Grandpa Mountain God, help us!"
"What are you screaming about? It's me! Get down here right now!" Mai Sui roared.
"Girl!"
"sister!"
At this moment, Mai Laosan and Mai Hongcai felt that Mai Sui's voice was like heavenly music. Even when he was angry and swearing, it still sounded so beautiful.
The two cried with joy and immediately climbed down from the tree.
"Girl, how did you find us?"
"Sister, it's too scary in the mountains at night, let's go back quickly!"
"Yes, yes, my girl, we don't want to make this money anymore. Our lives are more important. Let's go home! Which way?"
Mai Sui thought that he would have to go find Lao Ding later, so he controlled his temper and didn't do anything, and took the two of them down the mountain first.
It took Mai Sui less than half an hour to get there, but it took him an hour and a half to get there with the two burdens, Mai Laosan and Mai Hongcai, and even go down the mountain.
On the way down the mountain, Mai Sui wished he could kill them both.
Mai Laosan and Mai Hongcai both thought that Mai Sui had not caught any prey tonight, so they hurried home to calm down as soon as they got down the mountain.
Mai Sui finally couldn't stand it anymore and slapped them both hard in the face.
"Go back, go find Lao Ding first and give him this wild boar."
Mai Sui removed the branch, and then Mai Laosan and the others saw a wild boar in the ditch.
The two men's eyes suddenly brightened, their faces no longer hurt, their legs stopped shaking, and their joyful expressions were as if they had picked up money.
"Daughter, did you catch this?"
"Sister, such a big pig should be sold for at least a hundred dollars, right?"
"You know nothing!" Mai Lao San gave Mai Hongcai a big bag. "Such a big pig should cost at least three hundred. One hundred is not enough!"
This time the pig is not as big as the last time, weighing at most two hundred pounds.
According to the black market price of 1.5 yuan per catty, it costs almost three hundred yuan.
Mai Sui said unhappily, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and get the pig out of the ditch, then go find Lao Ding."
Mai Laosan and Mai Hongcai are now full of energy and don't mind Mai Sui's bad temper at all.
By the time the three men carried the pig to Lao Ding's house, it was already late at night.
Old Ding's real name is Ding Guishan. Although he looks old, as if he is in his 40s, he is on good terms with the third Mai brother.
In fact, he just turned 22 this year and hasn't even married yet.
Because he was responsible for receiving the goods, Lao Ding built a small courtyard next to the old house to live in alone.
Although he didn't say it explicitly, everyone in the family actually knew what he was doing.
Everyone disagreed at first, but Lao Ding insisted on doing it.
Parents and siblings can only turn a blind eye and pretend they know nothing.
Occasionally I have to help provide cover or something.
Lao Ding didn't have a very good reputation in Mujin Village because he often went to the city and rarely worked in the fields.
Even Mai Laosan goes to the fields more often than Lao Ding.
This is also the reason why they can get along well with each other, they have similar tastes.
Old Ding was woken up and was a little unhappy at first, but when he saw that the person coming was Mai Sui, his attitude immediately became respectful.
When he saw the wild boar carried by Mai Laosan and Mai Hongcai, he exclaimed, "Wow!"
Then he immediately asked Mai Laosan to carry the pig into the cellar and hide it.
As for how Lao Ding transported the pigs to the city, that had nothing to do with Mai Sui.
Lao Ding has been following Yan Feng for three years. He not only collects pigs from wheat ears, but also collects mountain products from other people. Naturally, they have their own ways of transportation.
Anyone who can thrive in the black market must have good eyesight.
After these brief contacts, Lao Ding has realized that Mai Lao San doesn't even dare to fart in front of his daughter.
The person in charge of the Mai family is Mai Sui, not Mai Lao San.
So, after collecting the pig, Lao Ding directly took out two hundred yuan and gave it to Mai Sui:
"Niece, this pig is too big, I can't weigh it.
I can’t estimate the exact amount. I can only know after I get the pig into the city at dawn.
Take these two hundred first, and I'll give you the remaining part tomorrow night, is that ok with you?"
Mai Sui took the money and said calmly, "Okay, this is our first official business relationship, I trust you this time.
As for how much this pig weighs and how much it can be sold for, you may not know, but I do.
I believe in you, and I hope you won't let me down, otherwise you won't be able to bear the consequences!"
Facing Mai Sui's sharp eyes, Lao Ding nodded rapidly:
"That's right, that's right. Your father, Mai Lao San, and I are as close as brothers. How dare I lie to you, niece?"
"Don't call me niece, or I'll blow your head off!"
".....Okay, Comrade Mai."
Lao Ding wanted to talk to Mai Lao San and ask him where the pig came from, but he ended up having Mai Sui take the pig away directly.
But it doesn’t matter, there is still a long way to go.
