"By the way, someone just came to inform us that the village will organize a trip to the mountains to hunt wild boars in a few days, and asked you to prepare your gear." Grandma Qi spoke while eating.
"The weather has been good these days, the snow on the mountain should have melted." Qin Zheng glanced outside.
Going up the mountain to hunt wild boars is a hobby every winter.
The reason for choosing this time is that the Chinese New Year is approaching. If we get some meat at this time, everyone can have a good New Year. The weather is cold in winter, and the meat can be preserved for a longer period of time.
Moreover, wild boars spend more time looking for food outside in winter, making it easier to find their tracks.
The most important thing is that people only have time to do this kind of activity in winter.
Of course, not everyone can beat this wild boar.
If the wild boars in the mountains are not killed, they will come down the mountain and hurt people in the summer, and it will be unsafe even at the foot of the mountain.
Therefore, the hunting of wild boars is also tacitly approved by the higher-ups. All villages near the mountains can hunt them, but they have to hand over half of the proceeds after the hunt.
Even so, hunting wild boars in the mountains every year is the most important and most anticipated event in the village.
If the villagers want to eat meat, they basically rely on this one time.
The "things" the captain was talking about were not weapons, but equipment for hunting wild boars.
There are tools and traps specifically for hunting wild boars in the village, but you don't need to prepare them yourself.
The most important thing is to inform you of this incident.
"Just take advantage of these few days." Dongzi also said.
The time for wild boar hunting is determined by the weather every year. Generally, we choose a month or so near the Chinese New Year when the weather is better. We will go up the mountain when the snow on the mountain melts.
Those who go up the mountain are all middle-aged laborers. Except for some older and experienced hunters, the rest are young people in the village.
Qin Zheng and Dong Zi were naturally among them.
Although this job can give you a little more meat, it is life-threatening.
"Well, you two should look for the things as well." Grandma Qi was quite relieved about them on this point.
Tang Wan wasn't too worried either.
She still remembered the scene when Qin Zheng and Dongzi rescued her from the wild boar's mouth.
These two people can kill wild boars alone, let alone when there are many people together.
Luo Ying wasn't too worried.
Her father and brother go there every year and nothing has ever happened.
This wild boar catching usually lasts three or four days.
At the beginning, we will set up some traps and other things, and find the wild boar's lair based on some traces of activity.
Finally, it’s time to really take action.
Since the captain has sent someone to notify us, then it means that the situation will only happen in the next two days.
You can go up the mountain directly after the snow on the mountain has completely melted.
Luo Ying had mentioned this matter before Qin Zheng and Dongzi arrived, and sure enough, he came to inform them now.
Fortunately, Qin Zheng and Dong Ziqi arrived just in time and caught up.
"I don't know how many there are, and whether they are enough for the village to celebrate the New Year this year." Tang Wan had never seen such a scene before, and didn't know what the situation was.
"It's hard to say. One year there was only one, and the meat was not enough for one meal. Then another year there were six, and a lot of meat was shared," said Luo Ying.
"It depends on whether the wild boar's lair is on the hill above our village." Dongzi was obviously very experienced.
