Back to 1992, slingshot hunting skill points!

Excluding the baby wild boars, the nine wild boars weighed a total of over 2,100 jin (approximately 1,500 kg).

This time, the wild boar herd was a large family, with both large and small animals. Last time, we shot them through the bushes, and most of them were large.

By the time they bled the wild boar and pulled it back, it was already broad daylight. Wang Long had pulled out the beggar's chicken and was waiting for Lin Chuan.

Two beggar's chickens cracked open the mud shells and peeled back the paulownia leaves, revealing charred black meat inside. It wasn't burnt, but rather blackened when the feathers were singed yesterday.

Last night and this morning, the fire kept getting smaller and smaller, so the chicken was basically cooked through and not tough at all.

"Mmm, delicious. Hey, Chuanzi, you can make beggar's chicken, but do you know how to make braised beef? You know, the kind they always call out on TV, 'Waiter, two pounds of braised beef!'"

Lin Chuan looked at Wang Long speechlessly. What was this guy thinking? How could he think about beef when he was eating chicken? Lin Chuan was too lazy to pay attention to him.

"Is it possible, Brother Chuan?"

Hmm, that's a good way to address him as "Brother Chuan".

"Yes, if you replaced the pig's head meat you ate the other day with beef, it would be braised beef."

"Ha, I didn't expect we'd already be eating braised pork. Let's go buy some beef later, how about you make braised beef? And let's buy some wine too..."

"You still want to drink? Will your dad beat you up?"

"Tch, I already had a drink. My dad poured it for me. He said I can have a little alcohol now, but he also said he'd break my legs if I dared to drink with you."

"Yes, I've had some too. My mom said the same thing. She said you're still in school and she doesn't allow you to drink."

Okay, this is very rural; it doesn't care about age, it only cares what you're doing.

Once you stop studying and start helping with household chores, you're considered half an adult; once you get married, you're considered an adult.

If they are studying, then they are all children, no matter how old they are.

No one found the chicken greasy at all; on the contrary, they all enjoyed it immensely.

Lin Chuan stuffed chicken fat and purslane into the chicken's belly. The juices from roasting were locked in the mud shell and slowly seeped into the meat after being left overnight.

The pheasant, which should have been a bit dry, wasn't dry at all. The chicken meat, along with the rich, sour, and spicy sauce, was surprisingly delicious.

After breakfast, Lin Chuan dragged the wild boar to the roadside in two trips and then waited there for Lei Long's car to arrive.

On the road, a car stopped to buy their wild boars. They sold two half-sized ones for two yuan a pound and received more than five hundred yuan in cash.

The Lei Long truck arrived shortly after, and after exchanging a few pleasantries and a cigarette, they began weighing the vehicle.

Lin Chuan pulled out two wild boars weighing over 100 jin each, but didn't weigh them. The rest weighed over 1,400 jin each.

Lei Long rounded it up again, 1,500 jin, 2,850 yuan.

"Brother Lei, you can take this rabbit with your drinks, and please bring these two wild boars to my brother-in-law and Brother Li."

I encountered the rabbits in the morning; there were two. I gave one to the Thunder Dragon and kept the other on the mountain to eat myself.

"I can't accept this," Lei Long said, and after Lin Chuan exchanged a few more polite words, he accepted it.

These days, drivers are still in high demand, and receiving gifts is common. Lin Chuan didn't expect him to do anything; it was just a casual matter.

After accepting the rabbit, Lei Long remembered Lin Chuan's words and asked:

"Brother Li, which Brother Li?"

"Li Jianguo."

Lei Long's expression changed slightly. Everyone knew about the relationship between Lin Chuan and Liu Jianshe, but he hadn't expected that Lin Chuan would know Li Jianguo.

Originally, Liu Jianshe only wanted him to have a good impression of Lin Chuan, so as not to offend him, since he was not under Liu Jianshe's jurisdiction.

But Li Jianguo could control him, Lei Long thought to himself, wondering if he had said anything inappropriate these past two days.

Fortunately, he didn't seem to say anything, he just kept offering Lin Chuan cigarettes, so he quickly took out a cigarette and offered one to Lin Chuan:

"There's no problem with your brother-in-law, it's just that Director Li..."

He feared that Lin Chuan was using Li Jianguo's name to intimidate him, and that Lin Chuan actually had no connection to Li Jianguo. If he presented the gift to Li Jianguo, Li Jianguo wouldn't accept it, and he would be the one accepting it on Li Jianguo's behalf…

"Don't worry, Brother Lei. Brother Li and my brother-in-law have been classmates for many years. I call him 'brother' too. We even had dinner together a few days ago."

Lin Chuan noticed his hesitation and added with a smile:

"Just ask him when you put the pig in the car. If he doesn't want it, just give it to my brother-in-law."

"Okay, sure."

"Brother Lin, you're really something," Lei Long gave a thumbs up:

"Yesterday I went to collect from five groups of people. The most any group managed to kill was three, two groups didn't kill any, and two groups only managed to kill one. Even combined, they didn't kill as many as you did."

"There are many of us."

Lei Long smiled and changed the subject. With his sharp eyesight, he could naturally see that Lin Feng and the other two were just there to add them on; they had no chance of actually killing the wild boars. These wild boars were only hunted by Lin Chuan.

"Hey Lin, are you married yet? I have a niece who's absolutely gorgeous. Want to meet her sometime...?"

"Brother Lei, Brother Lei, I'm still studying. Getting married is a long way off."

You can't just accept a blind date offer, even if it's just a verbal one. If you agree but don't go, you might get harassed. Back then, the crime of hooliganism hadn't been abolished yet.

Upon hearing that Lin Chuan was still studying, Lei Long looked regretful and muttered "what a pity," naturally ending the conversation about his niece.

In those days, rural areas weren't like the countryside where students were as common as dogs in later years, so people were more careful around students.

After seeing Lei Long off, Wang Long approached with a broad smile:

"Hey, Chuanzi, why don't you go and meet him? You're not planning to study anymore anyway. If you go and meet him, maybe you can get married in the second half of the year and have a big, healthy baby boy next year."

Lin Chuan glanced at him sideways: "Why don't you go?"

"Let's forget about it then. Judging from his appearance, his niece probably isn't very good-looking either. I still think Xiaohua is prettier."

Xiao Hua is from the team next door, and she's Wang Long's future wife. I never expected that he would be eyeing someone else's man, and it actually happened.

The conversation veered off-topic to finding a wife, and they began to critique the "beauties" in the neighborhood, offering their opinions and comments in no way different from the gossipy women of the village.

"Hey, Chuanzi, do you have any goals?"

A figure flashed through Lin Chuan's mind. Having been reborn, he naturally knew the character of all the girls in the neighborhood and had already set his sights on a target, but he didn't say anything, only shook his head:

"You guys, stop eyeing those pretty ones. Marry a virtuous wife. Open your eyes wider. A pretty face doesn't necessarily mean a good life."

It is said that marrying the wrong man ruins one's life, but marrying the wrong wife can ruin three generations.

In their past lives, apart from Wang Long's decent wife, Lin Feng's wife was a complete disaster, and Wang Liang's wife was, well, neither good nor bad.

"Tch, I don't believe you'll end up with an ugly one."

Wang Long's words left Lin Chuan speechless.

That makes sense; none of the girls he's thinking about seem ugly.

The first thing the group did on their way back was to move.

The wild boar herds nearby weren't very large anymore, so there was no need to travel such a long distance in the morning. Lin Chuan decided to move to another place to spend the night.

"Hey, is this little wild boar dead? It's not moving at all."

Lin Chuan didn't sell the wild boar he caught last night; it wouldn't fetch much money anyway, so he might as well eat it himself.

"Thank you to the following godfathers for their votes yesterday: 646763, 646332, 吔蕉啦你1111, qgj123, AAAAAASS, and 依旧云齐."

Let me tell you a really outrageous true story:

My grandfather went on a blind date, but the other party later died of illness. However, my family still treated that family with the respect due to an elder.

Even though my grandfather is dead, I still visit him every year for New Year's greetings, and I went again this year. It's just ridiculous.

I said ten years ago that I wouldn't go to the temple anymore, but my dad, grandma, and uncle all said no.

Fortunately, it wasn't far from one of my relatives, just a few minutes away, so I went to pay my respects there. I really think it's ridiculous, and I'm too lazy to argue with my elders about such a small matter.
