Go back to the prosperous days and become a layman

Chapter 198 Chapter 197

Tang Gang picked out the large pieces of birds, took out the internal organs and mixed them with the remaining small pieces of broken bones, gathered them into two piles, and said to the two cheerful dogs with their tails wagging: "Eat it."

The two hounds started to eat hungrily.

"This is the rule of going up the mountain. Those who hunt will be rewarded with hounds, so they also like to patrol the mountains and have a good meal." Tang Gang explained to Tang Zhitong as he watched the hounds eat.

"Be particular about it!" Tang Zhitong gave a thumbs up. Visually, there were seven or eight birds, but only three were in one piece. The others were fed to hounds, and each hound could get about two kilograms of fur and meat.

Seeing the hounds eating happily, Tang Zhitong felt that working as cattle and horses for capitalists was indeed not as happy as working as hunting dogs in forest farms.

After the hounds finished eating, the mountain patrol team set off again. It was not winter now, and even if the temperature was not very high, the roe deer had to be processed as soon as possible to prevent deterioration.

Everything revives, and there are more animals in the forest.

On the way back to the patrol route, Tang Gang stopped again, and then signaled the team members behind him to get ready to shoot. Tang Zhitong also followed suit, expecting to hit a moving bird soon, not for prey, but just to verify himself. marksmanship.

Following Tang Gang's gunshot, several birds flew out with fluttering wings.

Witness the moment of miracle!

It didn't arrive, and as expected, Tang Zhitong didn't even have his hair shaved.

"Don't be discouraged. We are all used to it. We know which birds usually fly at which angles. We need to predict this. It is normal to miss." Tang Gang patted the little brother on the shoulder and consoled him.

"It's okay, brother, I'll practice again later." Tang Zhitong was quite open-minded. Most people couldn't do it when hunting birds from a hundred meters away, but he was just an ordinary person by deducting space.

This time there were fewer prey than last time, and they were all in pieces. Tang Gang fed them directly to the hunting dogs. The two hunting dogs had a good meal today.

"Now that these two dogs are full, we won't bother with the little guys later. Our guns are suitable for hunting big prey. It's better to use a holster or a blunderbuss for the smaller ones and leave them to the hunters who go into the mountains." Tang Gang dug from the ground. Pick up a handful of soil and use it to clean your hands.

"Okay. In addition to feeding the hunting dogs, this kind of fighting also means knocking the mountain to shake the tiger, right?" All actions are subject to the command. As a tourist on a day trip to the mountain, Tang Zhitong is very conscious.

"Yes, smart people will hide in the mountains when they hear the sound of gunshots." Tang Gang admitted simply.

This time, the mountain patrol team did not stop. Everyone took turns carrying the roe deer and went straight to the Qinglin working area along the mountain patrol route. During this period, they resumed chanting.

The mountain patrol team patrols the mountain twice a day. With the strong guarantee of military ethics, the cleaning operation area is still very safe, but the duty lies in the fact that the mountain patrol team does not go down the mountain immediately after the patrol.

The Tangshan Iron and Steel team needs to wait until the clean-up workers get off work and escort them down the mountain before the day's work is over.

The morning patrol team went up the mountain early, and when the Tangshan Iron and Steel team came over, they could hand over and go down the mountain.

When we arrived at the work area, the two teams handed over before the morning shift went down the mountain.

Tang Gang handed the roe deer to the morning patrol team and asked them to take it to the canteen for processing.

"The forest farm has regulations that any big game caught during the mountain patrol belongs to the collective." Tang Gang saw that Tang Zhitong was confused, so he directly revealed the answer to his little brother.

"That's good. It can take care of the old and the young." Tang Zhitong nodded to express his understanding. This is a major feature nowadays. After all, every era has its most reasonable arrangements.

"Captain Tang, you have gained a lot today."

"That's right, no matter who takes action, I heard the sound of beans being fried just now, and I know there will be broth tonight."     "Thank you, Captain Tang."

……

Workers in the work area are accustomed to the sound of gunfire, and they greet Tangshan Iron and Steel from a distance.

Tang Gang replied with a few sentences from time to time, which showed that he was very popular.

"The food ration has been reduced, and the supply of meat has been cut off. Even with meat tickets, you can't buy meat. Everyone is looking forward to seeing some meat from the mountain patrol team when they come back from the mountains. I was lucky today, and one person can get two taels of meat. ." Tang Gang was very happy and said to Tang Zhitong with a grin.

"This is good, you can eat meat without spending money." Tang Zhitong responded cheerfully. It can be seen that Tangshan Iron and Steel has a "sense of collective honor", and the other mountain patrol members are similar. This spirit is very suitable for staying together to keep warm.

"Are you looking at that young man over there? He's resting with his head on his head." Tang Gang looked to the side, saw someone, and gave Tang Zhitong a sign with his mouth open.

"Yeah, I saw it. What's wrong?"

"The young man's surname is Pu, Pu Dacheng. Can you guess which tribe he belongs to?" Tang Gang asked.

"Well, the one on the other side of the river." Upon hearing this surname, Tang Zhitong knew which tribe it belonged to, but the platform did not allow him to write it down, so he could only guess.

"When you came yesterday, didn't you praise the delicious tea? It's from his family." Tang Gang said cheerfully.

"No wonder, I was wondering why my uncle drank barley tea." Tang Zhitong suddenly realized that few Han people drank this stuff, but the ethnic group in the east liked it very much.

"There is no tea at home. My father thought he had to have something to entertain you, right? Go borrow some from his family." Tang Gang explained to Tang Zhitong.

"Oh, I don't have a choice. Just drink boiled water. I'm embarrassed about this whole thing."

"That's not the point. His family has connections on the other side of the river. We have a shortage of food here, but there is no shortage there. If you want to buy food in the future, you can ask him for help. He is a reliable person." Tang Gang waved his hand and wondered how he would treat guests at home. It's all as it should be. Last time Mr. Tang Wenbang came back in the sleeper berth, Su Nianbin couldn't hold back his words and bragged for a long time.

"That's a good relationship. Brother, can you introduce me?" Tang Zhitong was very interested in this kind of reliable and connected person.

Tang Gang, who knew his best, took Tang Zhitong over and made introductions. Tang Zhitong stuffed a pack of cigarettes on the pretext that he wanted to buy some barley tea, quickly drawing closer the relationship between the two.

Although Tang Zhitong is not short of food and has no plans to buy food for the time being, who can say for sure what will happen in the future? Tang Zhitong wouldn't mind if he had the opportunity to buy a little bit, after all, he could make a profit by flipping it.

The three chatted for a while and agreed that Park Dacheng would send barley tea to Tang Gang's house in the evening, and then the two brothers continued to guard the edges of the Qinglin operation area.

The so-called forest clearing operation is to cut down some small trees and smooth the road surface to prepare for the transportation of logging operations after the arrival of winter.

As the sun sets, the forest clearing personnel finish their hard work for the day and, escorted by the mountain patrol team, head down the mountain together.

The mountain patrol team went up and down the mountain on different roads. When Tang Zhitong came, it was lush and green, but when he left, what he saw were large wooden piles buried deep in the ground.

"Brother, have you ever thought about growing some food on these lands? Although it is uneven, you can get some harvest in the fall." Tang Zhitong can't see idle fields now. It would be a pity to leave such good soil unused.
