Hello 1983

  Chapter 376 Rounding up the Wild Boar King

  Because the Spring Festival is relatively late this year, the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is just approaching, and the snow and ice on the mountains have just melted.

  Liu Qingshan, Hai Dagui, Zhang Dashuai and Zhang Ganzi and more than 20 villagers were walking on the mountain road to Mukelen with all kinds of belongings.

  Last night, Liu Qingshan proposed to cooperate with Hai Dagui in special breeding. Hai Dagui thought about it for a long time, and finally chose to trust Liu Qingshan.

   After all, the development route given by others earlier proved to be feasible, and his village also benefited from it.

   Engaging in special breeding is also a continuation of the previous way of "relying on mountains to eat mountains".

  These mountain people are very familiar with the temperament of wild animals, and it is not difficult to raise them.

  The key is to capture or acquire some living creatures, which requires a certain amount of funds.

  In addition, there are feed and venues, etc., which also require a lot of money.

   Now Liu Qingshan can provide development funds here, and the most important thing is that he also promises to underwrite the sale, which completely solves his worries.

  Under many favorable conditions, if Hai Dagui dare not try, there is no need for him to be the village chief.

  However, in the past two years, there was a hunting craze in their area. People in the surrounding areas beat the wild boars on the mountain more severely.

  After hearing that there were second-generation wild boars bred in Jiapigou Pig Farm, I planned to purchase a batch and ship them back.

   It’s just that the fathers of these wild boar cubs are all the same wild boar, and future reproduction will be a problem, so Hai Dagui made a request.

   Catch a few breeding pigs on the mountain next to Jiapigou, and transport them back together with the piglets, so that they can be bred quickly.

  Liu Qingshan discussed with the old branch secretary Captain Zhang and the others, and agreed.

  The wild boar population on their side is almost overwhelmed, and if they catch a few litters, it will have no effect at all.

   Didn’t see that all the wild boars on the mountain came to the pig farm to eat wild food.

  You must know that the number of wild boar populations directly affects the survival of those large beasts in the forest.

  Like Siberian tigers, Far Eastern leopards, and even lynxes, their main source of food is actually wild boars.

  Large-scale hunting like this, Jiapigou has not been organized for many years, and it just happened to catch up with the first month of the slack season, so the men in the village are all vying to come to have a good time.

  Even the little ones clamored to join the battle.

  However, considering that this kind of hunting has certain risks after all, only some young, strong and experienced people were selected to go up the mountain.

  As for the children, let’s study hard at home.

   For this reason, Er Mangzi was still sitting on the ground and rolling around: "I have caught spies on the mountain, and catching wild boars is nothing, a grenade can blow up to the sky!"

   Powerful, you are tired of it.

  Children in the mountains have had such a strong spirit since they were young, but this time they want to catch alive, so it’s better not to throw grenades.

   A group of people stepped on the melted snow on the surface, and soon came to Mukeleng, where the dumb grandfather was leading two apprentices, Gao Feng and Li Tieniu, to repair the roof of the wooden house.

  The snow on the top has melted, and there are two leaks that need to be repaired.

  Seeing Li Tieniu standing on the broad shoulders of the big bear, nailing the wooden planks of the roof clangingly, did he even save the ladder?

   In the end, the ladder was still unreliable. When Daxiong caught a glimpse of Liu Qingshan, he immediately forgot about his job and rushed directly to ask for candy.

   Fortunately, Li Tieniu stretched out his hands flexibly, grasping the eaves with both hands, hanging in mid-air, and then gently slid down, landing firmly on the ground.

  Liu Qingshan really had candy in his pocket, so he stuffed a few pieces for the big bear, and then saw a lame mountain donkey running out of the temporary wooden shed.

   This guy is not afraid of people at all, and he stuck his little head in the arms of the dumb grandpa and arched it twice.

   In addition, there were a few small heads of musk deer, which poked out from inside, looked around, and then quickly retracted.

   "Hey, how come there are so many more, and they gave birth so quickly, no, isn't the lame one male?"

   Liu Qingshan couldn't help feeling a little puzzled.

  The wounded musk deer was healed from the leg injury, but it also became disabled and became lame.

  In this case, if you release it to the forest, you will definitely not survive a month.

   This guy seems to know his own situation, so even if he is not tied up, he will not run far away, and lives here in Mukeleng, similar to domestic cattle and sheep.

   Hearing Liu Qingshan's question, Marshal Zhang immediately stroked his bald head and laughed loudly: "This is our forest ranger, who caught it years ago."

   Liu Qingshan looked at the proud handsome uncle, and was speechless in his heart: Master has just left for less than a month, and you started to be a demon?

I just heard Zhang Dashuai continue: "Qingshan, you said that you want to raise mountain donkeys, and then make musk. I wondered what a mountain donkey would do. It is still lame, and I can't catch up with a female to mate with it. People, just catch a few more."

  What else can Liu Qingshan say, compared to hunting wild beasts in the mountains just for eating meat, Uncle Dashuai has made obvious progress.

  So he leaned into the shed to take a look, and there were four tied to it, counting the lame ones, a total of five musk deer, two males and three females, and it would be no problem to breed them into a small population of twenty or thirty.

   No matter how many, it is easy to cause inbreeding and affect the survival rate.

  However, when the number increases, you can properly select a part of them and return them to the forest, and then capture some, so that the population can continue to grow.

  Liu Qingshan's goal is to increase the number of musk deer to over 100 within ten years, and to produce more than 1 kilogram of musk per year.

  These musk deer made Hai Dagui a little greedy, so he insisted on bringing back a male and a female to breed slowly.

  However, Liu Qingshan didn't agree, so it's better to wait for a certain scale before considering Hai Dagui's side.

   To round up wild boars, the dumb grandfather must be the commander in chief. He is most familiar with the situation in the mountains and has the most experience.

   If you want to get wild boars, using a shotgun is actually the best way. You can also dig traps in Xia Tian. If you want to catch them alive, the difficulty is the greatest.

   If the wild boar is really charging, it can reach a speed of 30 kilometers per hour, and the impact is powerful. An ordinary hunting net can't resist the collision of an adult wild boar.

   Fortunately, their targets this time are mainly those half-sized wild boars and piglets, and try not to provoke adult wild boars.

  After a little preparation, the hunting team went into the woods in a mighty way, and the hounds raised by the dumb grandpa, except for a **** who was giving birth, all the rest were dispatched.

   There is also a big bear, which is also mixed in the dog group. It is obviously several sizes larger, and it is particularly eye-catching.

  Grandpa Mute was familiar with the distribution of the wild boar family in the forest. After walking a few miles, he stopped at the edge of a miscellaneous forest and gestured for a while.

   "Master said, there are two herds of wild boars here, you can catch a group."

   Liu Qingshan was acting as an interpreter, after all, not everyone could understand the dumb grandpa's gestures.

  After that, the dumb grandpa came to line up the troops: he led the team, led the young men like Datou and Erbiao, and was responsible for driving the pigs to the place where the ambush was set.

  Dashuai Zhang is in charge here, there are a lot of people, a group of four, pulling a piece of nylon net.

  This kind of nylon mesh is used to cover the body of large trucks. One piece is five or six meters square.

   Those who pulled the nets were divided into six groups, ambush in the forest, set up a funnel-shaped pocket array, and waited for the wild boars to enter the urn.

  Comparatively speaking, the dumb grandpa group is more difficult and has higher technical content.

   It has never been an easy task to drive the prey into the encirclement.

  Mute Grandpa first directed Marshal Zhang and the others to set up an ambush, then led a group of young men and six or seven hounds and disappeared into the woods.

  Of course, Liu Qingshan followed his master, went around from the other direction of the forest, and began to look for the traces of the wild boar family.

  A wild boar family consists of more than ten wild boars, usually a big boar, leading one or two sows, and then a group of half-sized wild boars, or a group of small piglets.

   This thing has super reproductive ability. On their side, there are two litters a year, and they rely on the number for survival.

  There are many acorn trees in the miscellaneous forest, and the fruits that fell last year can be arched on the ground, so it is a place where wild boars prefer to inhabit.

  The leading hound walked and sniffed the ground, and soon found out, and began to trot in one direction.

  The dumb grandfather made a gesture, and Liu Qingshan roared: "I found the target, follow up!"

  After traveling a few hundred meters, the hound stopped abruptly. Through the sparse branches and leaves in winter, they saw a group of wild boars feeding on them not far ahead.

  At this moment, most of the snow has melted, and one is white and the other is yellow on the ground. It is much easier for wild boars to find food.

  This point can be seen from their little tails that are still shaking while feeding. They all seem very leisurely at the moment.

   Hum!

  Among the pigs, the most eye-catching big boar suddenly issued a warning sound from its nose.

   This guy is strong and strong, obviously taller than other wild boars. His towering mane shows his rebelliousness, and his vigilant eyes are shining fiercely.

  A pair of long fangs seem to warn people: Don't mess with Brother Pig, Brother Pig is also a guard with a knife.

   "I'm afraid this guy weighs five hundred catties, he's the king of pigs!"

  Looking at the big wild boar like a hill in the distance, Er Biaozi and others couldn't help feeling awe.

  Ordinary wild boars are considered big when they can grow to three hundred catties, and it is rare to see such a big one.

  The mute grandpa's expression remained unchanged, he still commanded the hounds and deployed the attack formation.

   Soon, a burst of fierce dog barking rang out in the forest, accompanied by shouts from people's mouths: "Hoohoo!"

   With a whimper, the herd of pigs was frightened immediately, and as soon as they shrugged, they were about to run away.

   This is also a normal reaction. After all, wild boars are still afraid of people, and their first reaction is usually to run away.

   At this time, it is time to watch the performance of the hounds. They bark wildly in their mouths, constantly put pressure on the pigs, and then drive the pigs purposefully, driving them to the encirclement.

  But today's situation is a bit abnormal. The big boar didn't run away with the pigs. Instead, after humming twice, he turned around and ran towards the hounds.

  Caught off guard, a hound was unable to evade, and was arched by its long mouth. It immediately flew high, turned several somersaults in the air, and then fell heavily to the ground.

  The crazy wild boar continued to rush towards the crowd behind the hounds, like a wild little tank.

   And it is Datou and Er Biaozi who are in this position. They have been frightened by the accident just now.
