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

Zhang Chaochao thought of this and quickly began to ponder it.

The relationship between Zhang and Yue Feng is actually quite subtle.

With the Wang family as a powerful backer, Yue Feng's apparent status is actually about the same as Zhang Chaochao's.

Given this situation, it's definitely not appropriate to use force or power; the only option is to outsmart the opponent.

Because of Li Wenhu's matter, Zhang Chaochao actually owed Yue Feng a favor, since Yue Feng had given Zhang Chaochao face at the time.

However, this favor was almost evened out by spending 100,000 yuan to buy that useless gyrfalcon.

After bringing the gyrfalcon back, Zhang Chaochao's experts tried every trick in the book, but they still couldn't tame it, just as Yue Feng had said when he sold it.

After all the calculations, Zhang Chaochao had no emotional leverage with Yue Feng. The only thing he could do was to act as a liaison for the Chinese side when the Americans came to China for inspection.

However, when Yue Feng heard that the Americans had come to inspect the area, he was very indifferent and did not show much enthusiasm.

"Hey!"

Zhang Chaochao thought it over and over and then sighed. He wanted to find a way to handle Yue Feng, but it seemed a bit difficult.

However, by the time they reached the level of the young masters, their minds were already extremely mature.

There are ways to play without cards, and as long as you can make a profit, being shameless is not a psychological barrier for Zhang Chaochao.

Having made up his mind, Zhang Chaochao called Yue Feng again after lunch.

"Xiaofeng, it's me again, Zhang Chaochao!"

"It's Brother Chao! Hello, hello! Is there any news from across the ocean? I thought you wouldn't contact me until tomorrow at the earliest!"

Yue Feng spoke very politely, but his expression remained very calm.

"Since it's important, I'll contact you as soon as possible! You told me you're preparing to go hunting in the mountains, so it would be a huge mistake if we were delayed!"

Yue Feng chuckled: "Haha, the Americans are the Americans, and we are us!"
"Friendship is one thing. If Brother Chao needs me, hunting and all that will have to take a backseat. I'll always be available and waiting for instructions!"

Zhang Chaochao was very pleased with these words, after all, Yue Feng had given him plenty of face.

Zhang Chaochao said, "If that's how you put it, then I'll shamelessly ask!"

"Hmm? Please tell me!"

Zhang Chaochao said slyly, "Evan and his team are visiting your place in China for an inspection, and I'd like to go and pay them a visit too."

We've been friends for so long, but I haven't even gone to their homes to pay my respects and say hello to their parents yet!

"It just so happens that it's the prime time for hunting in the mountains where you are. I've been interested in these things since I was a child, but I've never had the chance to really enjoy them. Now that I'm on your turf, how about I join your hunting team and go into the mountains for some fun?"

Zhang Chaochao's words were so impeccable that Yue Feng couldn't find a way to refuse.

Since he was already facing the same fate, Yue Feng agreed almost without hesitation: "Okay! Brother Chao is planning to come visit our little town, and your little brother will definitely welcome you anytime!"

However, there's something I need you to discuss with Evan beforehand!

"What's wrong? Tell me, and I'll definitely pass on the message word for word!"

"The falcon population at the breeding farm in my hometown is still relatively small, so we are not considering simply importing and selling them for the time being!"
If I'm not mistaken, Evan and his partners must have planned this trip to China to see my eagles, and even laid the groundwork for introducing them to the United States for commercial breeding!

If I'm right, I hope you can clearly convey my stance to them!
For now, I only accept exchanges for top-tier bloodlines like Salman's, and I don't consider purely cash transactions!
If Evan and his crew want to introduce my eagles to America, they'd better be prepared before they come!

Hearing this, Zhang Chaochao's heart sank.

Well, before she could even open her mouth, Yue Feng had already shut her up.

“Just like trading falcons with Salman, bring their superior falcons in exchange! I’d like to ask, what is your purpose in doing this? With the bloodline of the Great Black Eagle, your raptors don’t seem to need this!” Zhang Chaochao asked with a puzzled frown.

Yue Feng explained, "From a temporary perspective, it's indeed unnecessary. However, if the falcon farm wants to develop in the long term, exchanging for superior breeding eagles from other bloodlines is absolutely necessary! This fundamentally expands the margin for error in the falcon lineage!"

Wild-caught gyrfalcons are few in number and vary in quality, but breeding gyrfalcons from professional institutions or breeding farms are a different story.

If they meet my breeding eagle criteria, I'd consider this deal!
Of course, the exchange would cost extra. Salman's top-quality hybrid falcons cost an extra 500,000 to trade for my pair of white falcons. If the Americans wanted them, they'd have to pay about the same price!

"What if you want the black-type offspring falcon that you have?" Zhang Chaochao asked again after listening.

"Black-type falcon? That's impossible! I don't even have enough falcons on hand! No matter who asks, don't even bother!" Yue Feng refused without hesitation.

"What if I wanted one? Would you do me the honor?"

Even though Zhang Chaochao clearly heard Yue Feng refuse, he still shamelessly asked again.

Yue Feng curled his lip and said indifferently, "Brother Chao, please don't make things difficult for me!"

My younger brother only has this much to rely on. To outsiders, I seem to be someone important because I have the title of the Wang family's godson.

I know in truth that without my skills and my eagle, I am nothing!

My younger brother is just a peasant with only this much stuff. As his older brother, you have to help me stabilize my base!
"In a few years, when we have more breeding eagles, I wouldn't mind giving you one for free. But now is not the time. It's not reasonable to pick the peaches before the sapling has even blossomed, what do you say?"

Hearing Yue Feng's overly critical answer, Zhang Chaochao immediately felt uncomfortable.

This sounds like a humble statement, but the attitude is very firm.

If Zhang Chaochao continues to pressure him, he'll be making unreasonable demands. In that case, Yue Feng will stand on the moral high ground and not give Zhang Chaochao any face, and Zhang will have to endure it himself.

"Alright! Let's tell the other side of the ocean about your requirements and situation first! I'll get back to you once my itinerary is booked!"

"Alright! I'll slaughter chickens and sheep in advance to entertain you distinguished guests!"

"Ok!"

……

After hanging up the call, Yue Feng curled his lip. Zhang Chaochao was too shameless. When it came to friendships, Zhang's style was too utilitarian, far inferior to Ye Jianjun and Jin Long. Of course, after the incident where he played the bad cop, Yue Feng had a new understanding of his interactions with Ye Jianjun and his group.

In short, we should continue to be friends, but we must weigh the pros and cons from our own perspective and not be foolish enough to take the blame for others anymore.

As evening approached, Yue Feng called Xiao Tao and the three brothers, Xiao Wen and Xiao Wu, to his home again.

As soon as Xiao Tao entered the room, he couldn't help but shout, "Brother, what's the plan for calling us all here? Are you planning to go up the mountain ahead of time?"
This evening, I overheard villagers at the village entrance saying that Zhang Junhong led a group into the mountains and brought back two wild boars weighing over 200 pounds each!

Yue Feng shook his head: "The plan to go into the mountains to hunt will probably have to be postponed! I just got another call from Beijing!"

The events of this morning have been preliminarily verified! The Americans are coming to our area to investigate the introduction of falconry species!
Zhang Chaochao also needs to come, and I've tentatively agreed!

If this is handled well, it could get our falconry farm at least a pair of top-quality eagles, plus a net income of several hundred thousand!

"Huh? I guessed right! So what are your plans, and what do you need us to be responsible for?" Xiao Tao was taken aback when he heard this, then his face lit up with joy.

The three brothers, Xiao Tao and his brother, weren't envious at all of their eldest brother's earnings; they were more concerned with what they could do for him.

Yue Feng had already planned it out, and he told his brothers, "There are a few things I want to let you know in advance."

The first thing is to entertain the guests. If those Americans are coming, they definitely won't leave that day; they'll most likely stay overnight!
If Zhang Chaochao arranged and coordinated the process, it most likely wouldn't be carried out according to the standards for foreign guests entering the country. Our small place, Fengcheng, doesn't have the conditions to receive foreign guests!

Therefore, we need to be prepared for the inspection team to stay at our home!
If that's the case, then Xiaowen and Xiaowu, you'll have to prepare your new house in advance so they can have temporary accommodation!

My house definitely can't accommodate everyone, and besides, we have a big black hawk at home, and I don't want them to know too much about our daily lives!

Upon hearing that the visitors wanted to stay in their new house, Xiaowen and Xiaowu nodded without hesitation and said in unison, "No problem at all. Our new house is fully furnished with all kinds of furniture and bedding. It has ten tiled rooms, so it should be enough for the inspection team!"

Yue Feng continued, "Also, Xiao Tao, you're in charge of preparing some essential items for entertaining our guests in advance, such as local specialties and wild game!"

Xiao Tao became serious at this moment, patting his chest and guaranteeing, "No problem! As long as it's a unique and rare item from Northeast China, I'll prepare it in advance. We definitely won't lose face for our hunting team!"

"That's good. These are the two most important things. We can talk about the rest once we get confirmation!" Yue Feng nodded and relaxed.

Xiaowen then reminded him, "Brother, should we inform Grandpa Zhao and Grandpa Wu in advance about what's happening up the mountain?"

"Should we move our albino sables and such to a different location beforehand, so that outsiders can't easily see them?"

"Hmm, I've got that in mind. We can just cover the observation window on the cage side with a curtain and keep everyone on the same page!"

Oh, and there's something else I need you to do!

"What's up?"

"The expedition team has arrived, and taking them out to search the mountains on short notice is not very efficient! We need to gather some high-value intelligence points in advance to prepare!"

"Let's spread the word and buy some, shall we?" Xiao Tao said.

“Yes! Spending a little money is a small matter. We should try our best to ensure that the source of the prey information is true and effective! It’s best to go to places like Tiancangzi. If we don’t find anything during the search, we can go to another place to hunt bears!” Yue Feng answered confidently.

"Okay, I'll take care of it! This matter is a bit difficult, but it's also easy!"

Xiao Nian has gathered several friends specifically to search the mountains for supplies; he should be able to get some valuable intelligence!

Hearing Xiao Tao mention Xiao Nian, Yue Feng was slightly taken aback: "Has Xiao Nian been doing this all along? How's that kid doing since joining the well-drilling team?"

Xiaowen answered truthfully: "His performance was alright. Xiao Nian is actually quite meticulous and didn't slack off at all in his work!"

It's no secret in the surrounding villages that he's involved in selling things; it's a regular business channel for him. He's been doing this ever since he started selling things to us a few years ago, and now that he's brought a few more people along, his information channels are even wider!
This guy's smart enough, but he's a bit of a loner in terms of character and personality!

Yue Feng nodded after listening but did not continue the conversation.

Xiaowen's assessment of Wang Xiaonian was quite accurate. He was a smart man when it came to getting things done, but his personality wasn't suited for deep friendships or close relationships.

"Brother, should we also block the news that foreigners are coming here? What about the official statements? Should we inform the villagers in advance?"

"Also, should we communicate with the people in the city and the towns beforehand?" Xiaowen, being meticulous, continued to ask about these issues that Yuefeng had not considered.

"Temporarily lock down. Foreigners will definitely have cars to get around. As for talking to the leaders in the towns and cities, we don't need to worry about it. Young Master Zhang will definitely take care of the arrangements!"

"I think you need to think about it one more step!" Xiaowu suddenly said, offering a reminder.

"Huh? What?"

Xiaowu continued, "Whether it's foreign guests or Zhang Chaochao, they're not friends with us who know us inside and out!"
Or, how about we call Jianjun or Jin Shao to come along? Having a middleman would make things easier if any problems arise, and easier to communicate and coordinate with the outside world!

Yue Feng nodded after listening, feeling that Xiao Wu's suggestion made a lot of sense: "Okay, I'll call Young Master Jin right now. He has plenty of time and should be able to come over when he's free!"
As for Jianjun or Ye Xiaojun, forget it, they don't get along with Zhang Chaochao anyway!

……

Three cobblers are better than one Zhuge Liang. The brothers, talking amongst themselves at home, quickly sorted out most of the key matters concerning entertaining foreign guests.

The next day at noon, Zhang Chaochao called again, this time confirming the number of visitors, the time, and the entire itinerary.

As Yue Feng had predicted, after the two sides confirmed the information, Yue Feng's side began to get busy with preparations.

Fengcheng Grand Hotel in the city reserved the largest private room in advance according to the schedule, and Xiao Tao also asked people to prepare the wild game for entertaining guests at home in advance.

If there were any unforeseen variables, only one is worth mentioning.

After receiving Yue Feng's message, Jin Long had something come up and couldn't come. Instead, he recommended an acquaintance to Yue Feng.

Feng Huanping.

Feng Huanping participated in the entire last falconry culture exhibition, but he kept a low profile because there were foreigners present. This time, when the Americans came to Northeast China for inspection, Jinlong strongly recommended that he come along.

Yue Feng already had a high opinion of Feng Huanping, so since Jin Long had recommended him, Yue Feng agreed without hesitation.

After a brief contact, Feng Huanping agreed without hesitation.

In a short time, several groups converged and headed straight for Fengcheng, where Yue Feng was located. (End of Chapter)
