Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 1010 News about the Sika Deer Herd

When Wang An agreed, Wang Li's face immediately lit up with smiles, and he said:
"Yeah, I know this thing is strictly checked now, I'll learn it first, it will be useful sooner or later, hehehehe"

Looking at Wang Li's mean look, Wang An was too lazy to say anything to him.

The main reason is that Li Xiuyu is a really good girl, and her family members are not the kind of people who are greedy and demand more.

So even though Wang Li was a bit too fawning towards Li Xiu Yu, this was nothing more than a matter between the couple. Wang An only needed to give a few words of advice. Saying too much would only annoy people, or even make them hate him.

As they talked, they walked into the vegetable garden behind Wang Li's house.

As the two were picking the ripe melons, Wang Li suddenly slapped his head and said mysteriously:
"Oh, I almost forgot about it after all these days. Fourth brother, do you know why Xiuyu came to see me?"

Wang An rolled his eyes at Wang Li and said unhappily:
"Are you crazy? Why would she ask you to do that? How the hell should I know?"

Wang An finally understood why the phrase “beautiful women are the root of all trouble” appeared.

Because the person who said this must be someone like Wang Li who is irrational, or has poor self-control and is easily addicted to women.

To put it bluntly, he is a total gay bastard, not a lazy guy, but he puts the blame on the beautiful woman. In the end, he says that it was because the woman was too beautiful that led to such and such!

I have to say, the person who said this is really disgusting.

Seeing that Wang An's tone was not very good, Wang Li stopped pretending to be mysterious and said directly to Wang An:

"Xiuyu came to tell me that her elder brother was watching over a herd of sika deer in the mountains."

When Wang An heard the word "deer herd", he immediately became alert and asked quickly:
"How many are there, and where are they kept?"

Wang An is now very enthusiastic about raising deer, mainly because deer are so damn valuable. There is nothing on a deer's body that is not valuable.

And so far, Wang An has found that no matter what he raises, it is not as cost-effective as raising deer. The most important thing is that deer are very easy to raise. You can raise them just like raising mules and horses.

Wang Li immediately replied:
"There is a saline-alkali land at the 16th post in the southwest. He was watching over there. He said there were more than 30 deer, which is a large herd. There were also big male deer among them."

Upon hearing this, Wang An carefully considered the topography of the area, mainly the nearby vegetation and so on, and then he continued to ask anxiously:

"It was just before the big bucks returned to the herd. There must be a big buck in the herd. Did he shoot it?"

The reason why Wang An is so concerned about this issue is that the sika deer is different from other animals.

If you shoot at a herd of deer, any deer will be killed on the spot, and the remaining deer will immediately flee far away and will never appear nearby again.

To put it simply, this group of deer disappeared from this area from now on and would never return to this saline-alkali land to lick salt.

The saying “A deer may live for a thousand years, but it worries at every step” is not nonsense at all.

After Wang An asked, Wang Li immediately shook his head and said:
"No, I heard from Xiuyu that my eldest uncle, no, it was Xiuyu's brother, he aimed twice, but he was not a good shot, so he didn't dare to shoot without being sure of the angle."

When Wang An heard this, he immediately laughed happily.

Because as long as the deer are not disturbed, the mating deer will not go too far, and Wang An will still have a chance to take action.

As for Wang Li's slip of the tongue of the three words "brother-in-law", Wang An didn't take it seriously at all. Wang Li and Li Xiuyu were already engaged, and there was nothing wrong with Wang Li calling Li Dashan "brother-in-law".

After thinking for a while, Wang An couldn't help muttering, "I wonder if Xueli has learned how to catch deer from Lao Xiaopao. No, I can't catch deer with my feet alone. I have to think of other ways. There are more than 30 deer here. I can't just catch a few and forget about it."

Seeing Wang An mumbling endlessly, Wang Li couldn't help but offer some advice:

"Fourth brother, how about we go find our uncle? Then we can see if he has any good ideas?"

Wang An's eyes lit up when he heard this. An old hand at mountaineering like Feng Chengmin knew a lot of things.

Although Feng Chengmin never taught Wang An how to catch sika deer, and there is no news that Feng Chengmin himself has ever caught a live sika deer, but perhaps he really is very skilled.

Even if Feng Chengmin doesn't know how to do it, one more person means more strength. You have to know that there are more than 30 sika deer, which is far beyond the ability of three or two people to handle.

But if he asked someone else, Wang An still felt a little unsure.

After thinking for a moment, Wang An said:
"Well, there's no time to lose. He should be fine now. I'll go to his house and check on him."

As he spoke, Wang An picked up the small basket of melons and stood up to leave. After taking two steps, Wang An turned back and asked Wang Li:
"Are you going or not?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wang An denied it and said:

"Don't go. Just stay at home and accompany Xiuyu."

Afterwards, Wang An ignored Wang Li and turned around and walked home.

When Wang An got home, Li Xiuyu was chatting with Mu Xueqing. Wang An put the basket in front of Mu Xueqing and said:
"I'm going to visit my uncle. I'll be back soon."

Turning around, Wang An said to Li Xiuyu:
"Xiuyu eats salted melon."

After saying hello, Wang An ran to the west room, took out a gold cake, and rode his sidecar towards Linjiatun.

In less than ten minutes, Wang An's sidecar drove into Feng Chengmin's yard.

At this time, Feng Chengmin and his wife were also turning over and drying mushrooms.

Not far from the couple, there was a brand new walk-behind tractor parked in the yard.

It is obvious that this tractor has not been back for long.

This season is the time to pick mushrooms and dig wild vegetables, so almost every household is busy with these.

Mainly in the local area, the winter is particularly long. In addition to cabbage, potatoes, radishes, sauerkraut and other things, the most important dishes on the dinner table are dried wild vegetables and dried mushrooms.

If we don’t dry mushrooms and wild vegetables in large quantities at this time, we will have nothing to eat when the coldest days of winter come.

Seeing the sidecar stopped in front of him, Feng Chengmin was very surprised and said:
"Ah ha, what did you do with the shoulder pole again?"

Wang An first greeted his aunt Wang Yulian, and then said to Feng Chengmin with a smile:
"I've fixed it a long time ago, I just never came here to ride, hehehehehe"

Feng Chengmin stood up and rubbed his hands, then he looked around the sidecar, smacking his lips and saying:
"This thing is good. This thing is pretty good."
