Xing'an Mountains 1984: Starting from climbing mountains to support the family

Chapter 203 Dad, why did you ignore us just now?
"My family has been poor farmers for generations. Where can I get an armlet made of pure gold and jade? Weidong, you can't just say no!"

Li Shengli corrected seriously.

"Haha, Brother Shengli, this production team has been disbanded, don't be too scared!"

"That's not something you can talk about! What if... you're too brave!"

After all, Lee Seung-ri is a man of this era.

"Okay, you guys go dig the deer antlers, I'll go cook." Chen Weidong took a few more glances and then said.

Breakfast was simple. I cooked some corn stubble porridge, left some steamed buns, and some pickled vegetables I brought with me.

Just take a quick bite and start working.

After dinner, everyone had a clear division of labor. Shitou and Bingzi dug together, while Chen Weidong and Li Shengli washed the antlers of the deer together.

Working together, the process was much faster, and by evening, they had washed out a lot of antlers.

Seeing that Chen Weidong and Li Shengli could not keep up with their progress in digging out the deer antlers, Shitou and Bingzi also came over to help wash the antlers.

Over the next few days, Chen Weidong and three others dug deer antlers and boiled deer antler glue from morning to night. They even had to arrange for someone to keep watch over the pot at night!
Time flies. Chen Weidong and his three companions stayed in the mountains for about four or five days and boiled more than 40 kilograms of deer antler glue.

Although there were a lot of deer antlers, Chen Weidong and his three companions boiled deer antler glue day and night, but the amount of deer antler glue they boiled was very small.
You should know that it takes an average of four pounds of deer antlers to produce one pound of high-purity deer antler glue.

And it’s time-consuming and laborious! It’s already good enough to be able to eat more than 40 kilograms these days!

Chen Weidong planned to leave. In the past few days in the mountains, the few of them were like wild people.
Especially at night, there were ghosts howling and the four of them not only had to take turns keeping watch, but also had to watch two large iron pots, making it almost impossible to sleep.

In the first one or two days, the four of them were still very excited. Five or six days would be fine. If it went on any longer, not to mention Li Shengli and the others, even Chen Weidong would find it a little unbearable.

Although there are still many deer antlers in the valley, the time he talked to his wife is almost up. Moreover, in this life, he wants to live for himself, accompany his wife well, and live a life with his wife and children.

There is no need, and I won't, to suffer in the mountains just for money. You can make endless money.

"Shitou, Bingzi, chop up all the deer antlers we dug into pieces and put them in sacks. Finish these two pots today and we'll go back tomorrow. The big guy can also take two sacks back. Throw the rest here!"

Chen Weidong made a decision and immediately changed the division of labor.

All the antler fragments that were washed in the puddle were fished out and put aside. After controlling the water, they were put into sacks.

Deciding to go home tomorrow, Chen Weidong finished boiling the two pots of deer antler glue and did not continue boiling. Instead, he went into the shack early to rest!

The next day, before dawn, Chen Weidong and three others packed up their things and headed back!

Chen Weidong led the white tiger and walked in front! Shitou led the big guy, who was dragging two sacks. In order to reduce the weight of the big guy, the two large iron pots, shovels, axes and other things he brought this time were thrown here.
I can use it again next time I come, but looking at the weather, the snow in the mountains will start to melt soon, and there won’t be much time left to dig deer antlers!
It was just daybreak, and the four men could still hear the cries of wild animals from time to time.

The white tiger was very quiet. It walked in front, silently walking, and did not bark wildly.

These are good dogs, they understand human nature. Although the air is filled with the scent of wild animals, they know that this is not hunting, so they do not track prey.

They will not bark as long as no prey enters their warning range.

But they had just walked out of the swamp and into Panchang Mountain, and had not walked halfway when the four dogs started barking wildly.

Shitou quickly tied up the frightened big man, then quickly picked up his gun and looked vigilantly at the dense bushes in front of him!
Chen Weidong also held a gun and quickly stood with Li Shengli. A rustling sound came from the bushes in front, from far away to near.

Suddenly, two yellow-haired boars turned out. Seeing the hunting dogs, these wild boars were not afraid at all. They just looked at the four dogs and Chen Weidong and the other four and rushed over desperately!

I don't know if it's because of the deep mountains or because of some wild animals driving them away.

You have to know that normally, when yellow-haired creatures like these encounter dogs or wild boars, they will generally turn around and run away, and would never dare to rush over!
boom!
boom!
boom!
boom!
Chen Weidong and his four companions opened fire decisively, and the two yellow-haired men who had just shown their heads were easily killed by the four.

Then, two more wild boars rushed out from the darkness, one was a big cannon ball and the other was an old sow, howling as they rushed out.

boom!
Chen Weidong aimed at the egg and shot it directly on the head. The egg rushed out for a distance and fell to the ground!

Now Chen Weidong is using a 56.5mm rifle. This gun is very powerful. Basically, as long as the wild boar is hit on the head, no matter whether it has thick skin and flesh or how big it is, it will basically die!

On the other side, the old sow was also shot to death by Li Shengli and his three men!

After killing four wild boars, Chen Weidong did not put down his gun and continued to stare at the bushes in front of him!

There was a large bush in front of the four people, and they couldn't see clearly at all. The four people didn't dare to get close, because they all heard that this group of wild boars was not just four wild boars.

Chen Weidong was on guard when he heard a commotion in front of him, including the howling of wild boars and the sound of branches breaking. After a long while, the sounds disappeared.

"It looks like a group of frightened wild boars!"

Li Shengli said slowly.

"Don't worry about it. Shitou and Bingzi, you two should pull the big guy over here!"

Chen Weidong continued holding the gun and spoke to Shi Tou and Bingzi.

At this time, the big guy was already frightened. Chen Weidong was worried that Shitou couldn't hold him back by himself. If he let the big guy run away, it would be a big loss for him!

"Yes!" Shitou and Bingzi agreed.
Chen Weidong slowly took out a magazine and replaced it.

He casually handed the replaced magazine to Li Shengli.

Li Shengli took the magazine and instantly understood what Chen Weidong meant.

He took out the bullets from Chen Weidong's backpack and loaded them into the magazine. After loading, he returned the magazine to Chen Weidong.

Who knows what kind of ferocious beasts or wild animals may suddenly jump out from the bushes and hurt people, so Chen Weidong must stay vigilant at all times.

"Weidong, we can't take these four wild boars away!" Li Shengli looked around vigilantly and said unwillingly.

"No more!"

Chen Weidong had no choice. Compared with wild boar and deer antlers, Chen Weidong naturally chose deer antlers. Moreover, it would not be long before they would be eaten by wild animals in the mountains. In the area of ​​Tiger Ridge and Panchang Mountain,
There were lots of wild wolves and red dogs! The big guy was frightened, maybe some big beast like a wild leopard came.

"This is the only way!" Li Shengli nodded.

After Shitou and Bingzi pulled the frightened big guy over and no wild animals appeared, the group continued on their way.

At around eight o'clock that night, the four returned to Jiuqutun.

We even walked a short distance at night! Fortunately, we were close to the village and there was no danger!
Otherwise, Chen Weidong would not dare to take them walking at night. You know, walking at night in the mountains is simply seeking death!

At this point, the village was also quiet, but with the arrival of Chen Weidong and his party, the dogs in the village also started barking!
Then, the four dogs, Baihu, Dahei, Dahuang and Xiaohei, started barking, and immediately all the dogs in the village quieted down.

"Damn it, the dogs in our village don't recognize people, they only recognize dogs!" Bingzi laughed.

"Haha~"

Chen Weidong and his three companions walked into Jiuqutun without disturbing anyone.

The four of them drove the big guy directly to the door of Chen Weidong's house.

"Xue Ting!"

"Xue Ting! Are you asleep?"

"Open the door quickly! I'm back!" Chen Weidong shouted into the house.
"father!"

"Mom, listen, Dad is back!"

"father!"

"father!"

"~"

As Chen Weidong's voice fell, the kang in the room suddenly became lively! The voices of little girls calling for daddy came one after another.

Listening to his daughter's happy and excited shouts, Chen Weidong felt that his fatigue was much less!
Then there was the sound of getting dressed, and of course the sound of a dog barking, and then Liu Xueting came over with a flashlight and opened the door.

"Weidong, you're back!"

The moment she saw Chen Weidong, Liu Xueting almost couldn't help but throw herself into his arms. However, when she saw Li Shengli and the other two behind her, she stopped and hurriedly called out, "Brother Shengli, Shitou, Bingzi, come in quickly!"

Then the four of them worked together to unload the sacks, moved them all into the house, and piled them in the main room.

Leaning against the north wall,

The little girls were still shouting on the kang, but Chen Weidong couldn't take care of them now.

At this moment, there is a lot of rice and flour piled up against the north wall of the house, as well as Liu Xueting's sewing machine. When the new house is built, two warehouses must be built.

Seeing that there was not much space left to put feet in the main hall, Chen Weidong pondered secretly in his heart.

"Weidong, you guys haven't eaten yet! I'll go make some noodles!" Liu Xueting said at this time.

"Sister Xueting, no need! No need to bother!"

"Let's eat here! I want to eat too! It doesn't matter if you make one portion or two. Let's eat and then go home to sleep." Chen Weidong also said.

"That's okay!"

Li Shengli and the other two were not only physically tired after the long journey back, they were also mentally exhausted, so they did not bother to be polite to Chen Weidong.

Liu Xueting worked quickly, kneading the dough, rolling out the noodles, and boiling water to cook the noodles. In less than half an hour, she had made a big pot of stir-fried noodles.

Accompanied by some pickles, the four of us had a delicious meal.

Before leaving, Chen Weidong told them not to talk about digging deer antlers, and then they went home.

"father!"

"father!"

"..."

Chen Weidong came into the kang room carrying a kerosene lamp!
At this time, six little girls poked their heads out of the quilts and called for his milk.

"Dad, why did you ignore us just now?"

"Stupid, Dad is busy!"

"Wow, wow, wow~ Second sister!"

"What's wrong with me?"

"Second sister, you are right!"

"Dad! Why did you come back just now?"

"Dad, did you kill another wild boar?"

"Dad, I miss you so much!"

"~"

The little girls chattered non-stop!

Chen Weidong couldn't help but smile as he listened to his daughters' voices!
