Returning to 83 Mountain Hunting

Chapter 139 Two people spend the night together in the mountains (please order the full version)

"Did you accept it?" Qian Hui's eyes widened and she looked at Ji Chang in disbelief.

"Then the legendary big boss, is you?"

"You are such a big boss and you actually go hunting in the mountains?"

Qian Hui has no way to connect a boss with Orion.

"I'm not a big boss. I just make some hard-earned money. After the acquisition, I sell it exclusively to the big boss in Hong Kong, and he sells it to Neon." Ji Chang knows that his wealth should not be exposed, so naturally he will not admit that he is a big boss.

"That's pretty cool. We all know the big boss in Hong Kong, and we can sell pine moss fungus to him." Qian Hui still felt that there was no way to connect Ji Chang with the boss.

"Thank you." Ji Chang smiled slightly and continued: "You can also go pick matsutake mushrooms. It costs three yuan per catty. If you are lucky, you can make a lot of money in a day. Moreover, you will not delay hunting."

After all, many hunters go up to the mountains to hunt during the day, so they can indeed pick some matsutake mushrooms along the way.

Recently, more and more people are carrying guns on the mountain, but most of them are for self-protection.

There are still more wild animals today, at least more than in later generations, and the probability of encountering them is still very high.

"That's for sure. It's three yuan a pound. I have to pick some no matter what. It's a chance to get money for free." Qian Hui said seriously.

If she could go to the mountains to pick up some matsutake mushrooms every day, she would have money to treat her mother.

Therefore, she couldn't help but walk a little faster, thinking about getting into the pine forest as soon as possible.

However, as soon as they entered the mountain, the two of them met some people carrying bamboo baskets.

"Fellow, are you going to pick matsutake mushrooms?" Ji Chang saw these people and guessed that they were going to pick matsutake mushrooms.

After all, this season is not a slack time for farming, and few men will go into the mountains.

Right now, there are just a few here.

"Yes, you are going hunting, so be careful. There are more people than animals in the mountains now. You must be sure to hit them accurately. If you accidentally hurt them, it will be serious." A man reminded.

"Okay, thank you for reminding us, we will pay attention." Ji Chang said very seriously.

He knew that what these people said was right. There might really be more people than animals on the mountain now, and he had to be very careful if he wanted to hunt.

Qian Hui also nodded, feeling that what the other party said made sense.

Once an accident occurs, no one can afford the consequences.

"You should also pay attention to fire prevention when you go into the mountains, so as not to burn the pine forest, and there will be no chance to make money in the future." Ji Chang reminded him when he saw a few people smoking.

"Yes, yes, the matsutake harvesters told us the same thing. We must be careful not to let cigarette butts fall to the ground." Several mushroom pickers also said very seriously.

Soon, the two parties distanced themselves.

"I didn't expect that you would ask people to remind them to pay attention to fire prevention." Qian Hui was a little surprised.

"Forest fire prevention is everyone's responsibility." Ji Chang said very seriously.

After all, mountains and forests can easily catch fire, and everyone must always pay attention to this.

Therefore, he asked the people responsible for collecting matsutake in each village to remind them every day and write slogans in the village.

Fire prevention awareness is very important. The main thing is to prevent the fire, but it will be troublesome when it comes to putting out the fire.

"Forest fire prevention is everyone's responsibility." Qian Hui murmured and kept this sentence in mind.

As hunters, we have a strong awareness of fire prevention, because it is directly related to their lives.

If they don't catch fire, they may be trapped in the flames.

The two people did meet a lot of people after entering the mountain. This situation was no longer suitable for hunting.

But Qian Hui is not in a hurry. Someone is looking for matsutake mushrooms here, which means there may be matsutake mushrooms in this place.

Others can look for it, and so can she.

After asking Ji Chang and knowing that Ji Chang didn't care, she started looking for the matsutake mushrooms intently.

"Wow, woof."

Ping An and Qing Hu, who were relatively quiet at first, suddenly shouted and then ran forward.

Ji Chang quickly followed, guessing that the two of them might have discovered the matsutake.

There is a high probability that they will not find prey. When they find prey, they will alert Ji Chang and will not take the initiative to attack.

Qian Hui led her hound and followed closely.

After running for more than twenty meters, Ji Chang's two hounds were wagging their tails under a pine tree.

"Wow, they can also look for matsutake mushrooms?" Qian Hui was very surprised. She didn't expect that hunting dogs could be trained to look for matsutake mushrooms.

"You can also try it with your hounds. After all, their sense of smell is much stronger than ours." Ji Chang said with a smile.

There are three mushrooms in total, all of good quality.

"Here, let me give you this." Ji Chang handed a bamboo knife to Qian Hui.

"Is it really feasible to train hounds to find mushrooms?" As she said this, she looked at Ji Chang's two hounds, and then took the bamboo knife.

"Insert the bamboo knife through the edge of the matsutake and pry the matsutake out from the bottom. Then, remove the matsutake, press the original position, and cover it with pine needles. In this way, new matsutake may grow in this place."

Qian Hui nodded and started digging matsutake mushrooms according to Ji Chang's instructions.

This method is the standard way to harvest matsutake mushrooms, which protects the spores and allows them to regrow.

In this way, matsutake can be harvested every year.

People who collect matsutake mushrooms will teach everyone seriously when they go to each village. After all, this is also related to their income.

Because they buy it for three yuan, but they can sell it to Ji Chang for three and a half yuan, making fifty cents per pound, which is much easier than those who go to pick matsutake.

You must know that Zhao Ming started the business with a profit of 5 cents per catty. Making [-] cents per catty is not a small amount.

"Is this right?" Qian Hui dug the matsutake out of the soil and handed it to Ji Chang.

"Yes, the operation is very standard." Ji Chang smiled slightly and took the matsutake.

He gently wiped off the dirt on it, and then said: "Then find some moss and cover it above and below the matsutake. This will not only moisturize the matsutake, but also provide protection and buffering for the matsutake, preventing it from being damaged."

As he spoke, Ji Chang quickly found some moss.

When selling matsutake mushrooms, they can take them home and raise them.

Growing moss is very simple, just provide some soil and maintain humidity.

Now, Ji Chang has begun to build shelves to grow moss. He grows moss according to the size of the packaging box, so that it can be put in layer by layer during packaging to protect the matsutake mushrooms.

"How's it going? Have you learned it?" Ji Chang glanced at Qian Hui.

Qian Hui nodded, and then began to dig out the second matsutake mushroom.

This time Ji Chang didn't help her look for matsutake mushrooms, but asked her to look for them herself.

After a while, she found some moss to protect the matsutake.

"Yes, this is the process. After you go back, you can go back and buy matsutake mushrooms. You charge three yuan per catty in the village and sell it to me for 3.5 yuan. You can earn 0.5 yuan from it." Ji Chang felt that Qian Hui was not suitable. Running into the mountains all day long.

It is still too dangerous for a woman to hunt. After all, there are ferocious beasts in the mountains now.

Moreover, their entire area has been included in the pilot protected area, and there will be no shortage of ferocious beasts in the future.

Now, all hunters who catch large game need to register and report, and the game must be inspected.

If someone fails to register and sells them secretly, their hunting license will need to be revoked if they are discovered.

In the future, management will become more and more strict, and animal protection will become more and more in place.Qian Hui is definitely becoming less and less suitable for hunting.

Let her start a simple small business, which is easier than hunting, not to mention making more money.

"Really?" Qian Hui asked with a surprised look on his face.

Earning 5 cents per pound, isn't this a great business?
"Of course, the leaders of other villages have the same price. However, the purchase price must be decided by me, and the pricing cannot be changed." Ji Chang didn't want to be drawn too much by the middlemen.

Ji Chang wants to let the hardest-working mushroom collectors earn more money, rather than making money easier for the middlemen.

"Okay, so I can take care of my mother in the village." Qian Hui said happily, looking at Ji Chang with eyes filled with gratitude.

"Okay, let's continue looking for matsutake mushrooms and see what prey we can hunt." After saying this, Ji Chang put the matsutake mushrooms into her backpack.

Qian Hui didn't shirk it. She knew that Ji Chang was worthy of these matsutake mushrooms.

The two continued to search, and then Qian Hui discovered that Ji Chang's two hounds could not find all the matsutake mushrooms.

She found two matsutake mushrooms that were not discovered by the two hounds, so it was not easy to train the hounds to find matsutake mushrooms.

Unconsciously, it was noon. The two of them ate some dry food and did not light a fire to cook.

Towards evening, it suddenly started raining heavily.

Ji Chang decisively took out the tent and set it up.

He didn't catch any prey today, so he wasn't planning to go back.

People who go up the mountain either bring a bamboo hat or a raincoat, or something to protect them from the rain.

Also, those who pick mushrooms don’t stay in the mountains.

Everyone knows what kind of dangers there are in the mountains. If you stay in the mountains rashly, you may freeze to death or encounter flash floods.

The camp Ji Chang chose was on a ridge. Such a place would not be affected by flash floods.

However, such places sometimes experience mudslides.

When it rains, choose a place with a smaller slope and more vigorous vegetation.

Ji Chang took out a bag sewn with tarpaulin from the bamboo basket, which was filled with charcoal.

At the same time, he also took out a charcoal stove.

"How come you have these things?" Qian Hui was very surprised.

Watch Ji Chang grab a handful of charcoal, and then easily ignite the charcoal with rosin wood.

"My wife prepared this for me just to prevent me from encountering rain in the mountains." Ji Chang said with a happy face.

These things were naturally prepared by Gu Shuyao for Ji Chang, just to prevent him from being trapped in the mountains due to heavy rain.

"Your wife is so considerate. No wonder you look so happy when you mention her. It's so enviable." Qian Hui did not hide her envy.

She felt that if she were Ji Chang's daughter-in-law, she wouldn't be able to be so considerate and attentive.

She is still relatively carefree, and her personality is more like that of a man.

"It's really thoughtful." Ji Chang is actually not afraid of the cold or hypothermia, because this kind of thing will never happen to him.

His body is not comparable to ordinary people. Ji Chang's body is several times stronger than ordinary people.

Even if he doesn't get caught in the rain all night, he can still keep his body warm.

Perhaps this is the function of the hunting space to ensure that his body does not lose temperature.

Looking at the heavy rain outside, Qian Hui sat in the tent and reached out to catch the rain.

Originally she still had some fantasies, but now she has completely given up.

Ji Chang would definitely not give up on his wife and then turn around to be with her just because he had a common language with her.

After watching the rain for a while and feeling the temperature in the tent rising, she took out a matsutake mushroom from her backpack.

Ji Chang told her that it tastes good when baked, so she wants to try it now.

I picked out a relatively thick matsutake and cut it into matsutake slices.

Ji Chang has a small pan in his hand, which he can use to bake.

After roasting for a while, the aroma comes out.

"It really smells good. It tastes better than meat. No wonder it's so expensive." Before, she never knew why the meat of this little fungus was so expensive.

Is it really because of its scarcity?

But everyone in the village is looking for it, so it’s not a small amount in total, right?
After smelling it, she had some understanding.

After tasting it, you will understand it completely.

Matsutake mushrooms were indeed more delicious than meat, and her taste buds were instantly conquered.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and Ji Chang took out a rabbit from his backpack.

This rabbit was the only prey the two of them had caught today.

No gun was used, a slingshot was used.

Qian Hui was surprised when she saw Ji often kill a rabbit with a slingshot, because it was the first time she saw someone killing a rabbit with a slingshot.

How much strength does it take to kill a rabbit directly with a slingshot?

After Ji Chang opened the belly of the rabbit, he threw the internal organs to Qinghu and Ping An.

Ping An just glanced at it and did not go to grab these things from Qinghu.

Qian Hui's hound looked at it with envy, but did not come up to grab the food.

Ji often rinsed the rabbit's abdominal cavity with rainwater, and then burned off the rabbit fur.

Rabbit skin doesn't taste good if it's peeled off, but it tastes better with the skin on.

After burning the rabbit fur, Ji often scraped the rabbit skin with a knife, and then chopped the rabbit meat into pieces.

Spicy rabbit meat, he is going to cook this today.

It was just a rabbit, but Qian Hui baked a few pancakes, which were a perfect match with the spicy rabbit meat.

Qian Hui watched Ji Chang busy and eating matsutake mushrooms in silence.

She knew that Ji Chang's wife must have prepared these condiments for him.

"Aren't we going back tonight?" Qian Hui glanced at the sky and asked curiously.

"Well, I won't go back. There should be no one going up the mountain tomorrow morning. We can go look for big animals and shoot a big guy back."

Hearing Ji Chang's answer, Qian Hui nodded.

"You often go hunting in the mountains, isn't your wife worried about you?" Qian Hui was very curious.

The mountains are still very dangerous, even for experienced hunters.

Especially since Ji Chang was alone, he was more dangerous than other hunters.

She was thinking about letting her eldest brother hunt with Ji Chang in the future.

　It’s the end of the month, please vote for me, thank you! !
