Reborn in the 1980s: I made my fortune hunting wild game in Changbai Mountain

Evan was pleased with Robert's reaction. He smiled and nodded, glancing at Allen beside him.

"Mr. Allen, what do you think?"

Allen was equally shocked. He took a deep breath and said, "Seeing what's in the video is quite unexpected. Let's keep watching and discuss it after it's over!"

"Of course, there's more to come!" Evan pressed play again, and the video continued to play.

The dog removed the hat from the rabbit and tiger in the sky, and then the two falcons worked together to easily capture the rabbit. Afterwards, the dog brought back the prey, and the sheep pulled the cart back to its owner.

Watching the entire performance, the coordination between various animals, the cooperation between different birds of prey, and the training evident in the live-action demonstrations greatly surprised the other two partners.

After the first video clip finished playing, the second clip showed Yue Feng's falcon performing in a real battle.

Red fox, roe deer, and finally, adult male sika deer.

All three different levels of prey were killed by the falcon. After the great black eagle's exaggeratedly excellent performance, Robert could no longer remain calm.

"Evan, arrange the trip immediately, I need to go to China!"

When Evan heard Robert say that, he laughed and asked, "What? You couldn't resist after watching the video too?"

“This black gyrfalcon is definitely a top-tier falcon! You were right earlier, if we can acquire offspring of this bloodline, the future commercial potential of our falconry will be limitless!” Robert said with absolute certainty.

"Allen, what do you think?"

Allen scratched his head, picked up the coffee on the table in front of him, took a sip, and forced himself to remain calm.

“I agree with Mr. Robert! This black gyrfalcon is indeed a top-tier falcon! However, I have one more question I'd like to ask, and I wonder if you have the answer!”

"Hmm? What's the problem?"

"Did you know whether the outstanding performance of these two eagles was innate or the result of training when you watched the competition live?"
For example, my most unexpected ability was that the eagle, together with the hunting dogs, pecked out the eyes of the sika deer!
"If it's an instinctive habit carried by bloodline, then the value of Black Hawk offspring will increase tenfold!" Allen asked very rationally.

After hearing the question, Evan shook his head: "I'm afraid you'll be disappointed! This kind of fighting style is trained, not something you're born with! I talked to the owner of the Black Hawk about this when I saw the performance!"

"Trained?"

"Yes, the owner of the big black eagle said that the eagle didn't know how at first, but it was accidentally unlocked during a battle!"
Once they mastered it, the other eagles, following their parents' example, also learned this blinding combat technique!

Allen's eyes lit up after hearing Evan's answer.

"This...this is just the instinct in one's bloodline! The master didn't train it specifically; it was acquired in actual combat, and the offspring can learn it from their parents!"

My God, to acquire this black gyrfalcon, must its owner have saved God in a past life! ..."

After Allen said that, Evan realized that this understanding was also correct.

"Hmm, your analysis seems to make sense!"

"As long as it can be reproduced frequently in the bloodline of offspring, it can be determined that it is the hunting instinct in his bloodline! This is the top selling point!"
If our breeding farm has breeding hawks of black falcons, when we have eaglets for sale, we can directly show the buyers the contents of the videotape we just recorded!
I refuse to believe that anyone wouldn't like a black gyrfalcon that can hunt adult male deer with the help of hounds!

Evan nodded: "Now that you've watched the video, you two should have reached a consensus, right?"

Robert nodded again, stating, "Of course, we'll acquire this black falcon's direct descendant as quickly as possible! As for the price, I'm willing to stake all my assets on it!"

“I’m willing to take the gamble too!!” Allen chimed in.

Seeing that both partners had expressed their opinions, Evan nodded and said, "Now that everyone has reached a consensus, let's say how much budget each of us can contribute!"
Legally introducing black falcons to China would require a huge investment, and I don't have that much money to cover it upfront!

“I can probably offer around six hundred thousand US dollars!” Robert blurted out a figure first.

“I can probably raise 300,000! Or I can sell my stocks and funds and raise 350,000!” Allen said immediately.

The combined budget of the two partners was close to one million US dollars, and Evan visibly breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this figure.

"I don't have as much as you guys, but I can probably scrape together around 200,000!"

"However, as the project initiator who brought the news back, and also the liaison, I need to add a little extra equity. I think you can accept that!" Evan said very shrewdly.

The intelligence was indeed discovered and brought back by Evan. Later, when they went to China to find Yue Feng, they would indeed need Evan. When Robert and Allen heard their partner say this, they only raised their eyes slightly, but still readily agreed.

Robert turned to Evan and asked, "What percentage of the total shares do you intend to take?"

The information you brought back is very valuable, and Allen and I both agree. However, you can't go too far. This investment in breeding stock is very risky. If there are problems with the subsequent raising of the breeding eagles or the reproduction of the mates, we will lose everything!

Evan grinned and waved his hairy hand; he had already thought this through.

"How about I just take 5% of the equity in intelligence gathering and business development? That's my bottom line!!"

Upon hearing that Evan would receive 5% of the shares, Robert immediately took out a pen and paper and began to calculate it on the table.

After a few minutes, Robert looked up and said, "My calculations are a bit bad! If I want to own more than 51% of the shares, I need to invest more than 63.75 yuan!"

Looks like I need to figure out a way to scrape together a few tens of thousands of yuan!
Damn it, our idea is absolutely terrifying! This isn't an investment, it's more like a high-stakes gamble!!!

Of the three, Robert is the wealthiest. He can always find a way to come up with the tens of thousands of dollars that are outside the budget.

Evan and Allen were younger and had less resources, so they never considered wanting to gain more than 51% ownership and absolute control of Hayabusa.

Evan: "Fine, whatever you say is fine, I don't care!"

Allen nodded: "I can accept that too!"

Robert put down his pen and finally made the decision: "Then it's settled. Everyone, raise the money as soon as possible! Then apply for visas to China!"

Damn it, I haven't been this impulsive in years! I hope those white-robed people in the Middle East don't beat me to it!!

Evan grinned: "You can rest assured about that. Before Mr. Salman returned home, we made an agreement that, in order to prevent the spread of core intelligence, we would not tell the information to unrelated people indiscriminately!"
Unless Mr. Salman himself gets there first and buys all the offspring breeding eagles, there shouldn't be much of a problem! Who could resist the temptation of a million dollars!

"OK!"

……

While the Evan trio were back in their hometown figuring out how to pool their money to introduce the species, Salman and his assistant Nasser were also busy.

Salman shared all his observations in China, as well as the video footage he later sent back, with Nasser without reservation. Besides marveling at the wonders of Chinese falconry, Nasser began to understand the underlying logic behind the surface phenomena.

The relationship between humans and eagles needs to be cultivated from daily life. To achieve a very close relationship, it is best to eat and live together and spend as much time together as possible.

For an eagle and a hunting dog to develop a good relationship, they need intense close contact before a deeper level of trust can be built on a foundation of conditioned reflexes.

During this period, Nasser almost completely abandoned his nearly twenty-year-old combat training system and began to use Chinese-style falconry training concepts to engage with the base's potential falcons.

It will take some time to see results, but Nasser received a response quickly before the training results were available.

One of the hybrid falcons, codenamed "Genius," developed a much closer relationship with Nasser. For the first time, it flapped its wings and begged for food during feeding, which greatly excited Nasser.

Before anyone knew it, more than a month had passed since Salman returned to his country.

He took the pair of purebred white gyrfalcons he had acquired in exchange and went hunting three times in total, returning with a full load each time. His outdoor hunting experience was greatly improved compared to before. He was no longer in the embarrassing situation of a large group of people going out to work all day, only to miss several good opportunities to catch the prey.

As it turns out, nothing stays hidden forever. The unusual hunting breakthrough at Salman Falcon Base, despite being much more discreet, still attracted the attention of others.

That day, Salman had just finished signing an oil field development project document in his magnificent, large office when his assistant knocked on the door.

"Boss, there's an unplanned event. I'm afraid your falconry training this evening will have to be delayed!" the secretary said very respectfully.

"what happened?"

“Prince Hamid just made an appointment for a visit via his private phone. He will arrive in half an hour! It seems you don’t have any other scheduled activities today besides flying the falcon, so I accepted on your behalf!”

"Hamid? What's that guy doing here! Did he say what the purpose of his visit was?"

"No, they just said it was a private matter. As you instructed before, when it comes to private matters with such important figures, you should try not to refuse unless there is a time conflict!"

"Okay, I got it. Go ahead and get busy! Make me two cups of hand-drip coffee in advance!"

"Ok!"

……

After listening to his secretary's report, Salman frowned and began to think.

Hamid is a guy who thinks very highly of himself. Among the princes of the same rank, he is almost the most flamboyant one.

It's possible for Yossalaman to be competing in falconry or discussing business cooperation, but it's rare for him to call personally to arrange a meeting like today.

I don't know what's wrong with him.

Could it be that Hamid found out about the new falcons that the Falcon Hunting Base had introduced?

According to the plan I made with Nasser a few days ago, we were going to wait until the temperature dropped a bit more before the falconry competition started this year, and then let the two white gyrfalcons from Yuefeng show up.

Thinking of this, Salman became slightly nervous for a moment.

Half an hour later, as expected, the guard downstairs notified the distinguished guest of their arrival.

Salman personally came downstairs to greet Hamid and met him.

After Hamid got out of the car, Salman first bowed in greeting according to local custom, and then offered a blessing of peace.

Then they raised their hands to embrace and kiss on the cheek.

After exchanging three cheek kisses, the two entered the courtyard side by side, with their entourage and secretaries waiting outside.

"Mr. Hamid, it's been a long time!"

After gesturing for the other person to sit on the right, Salman exchanged pleasantries while accepting a cup of coffee brewed in a brass dara pot, brought in by his secretary.

“It hasn’t been that long, we were flying eagles together last time!” Hamid smiled, then picked up his coffee and took a sip.

According to etiquette, the next step was to share black dates and incense, but Hamid seemed to be getting impatient. Before these traditional rituals were even over, he had already started to steer the conversation toward releasing the falcon.

In the world of the White Robes, falconry is an eternal topic. People of any relationship can sit together and chat for a long time without anyone feeling awkward.

Upon hearing the other's words, Salman's heart skipped a beat: "My dear brother, have you heard some false rumors outside?"

Hamid smiled and shook his head: "There's no false information. My falconer saw your team catch a fully grown gazelle at Hunting Ground No. 3 yesterday!"

Now Salman couldn't deny it anymore. He had indeed gone out to fly falcons for fun yesterday and had a good haul, but he never expected to run into Hamid's men.

Hunting grounds can be privately owned or in public areas. Hunting ground number three, which Hamid mentioned, is a public area.

Salman nodded slightly after listening, but did not continue speaking.

"Aren't you going to say anything to me? There are no outsiders in the house, and we're such close friends!" Hamid stared intently at the other person.

Salman scratched his head helplessly: "Well... I wanted to tell you, but I promised a friend I'd try my best to keep it a secret, and I don't want to break my promise!"

“I discovered it myself, so how can I keep it a secret! Right, my dear brother! Aren’t you going to tell me about those two white falcons?”

Hamid revealed a sly expression; it was clear he had done his homework before coming.

Seeing that things had come to this point, it would be impolite to refuse any longer, so Salman sighed and said, "These two top-quality falcons are ones I brought back from my recent exchange trip to China!"

In faraway China, there is also an ancient tradition of falconry, and the skills there are even more exquisite than our traditional falconry techniques!

"What? These two purebred white gyrfalcons are Chinese-made falcons?"

As far as I know, white gyrfalcons do not breed or have a distribution in China. Does this mean that China also has a raptor import business?

Hamid was very surprised when he heard the news.

Salman shook his head: "Obviously, your information is incomplete. Both of those white falcons were wearing closed leg bands!"
In fact, they are captive-bred gyrfalcon offspring! When I brought them back, they were already mature individuals that had completed their hunting training!

"What? You mean the Chinese have already achieved artificial breeding of gyrfalcons? How is that possible?!"

Upon hearing this news, Hamid completely broke down. (End of Chapter)
