Chapter 474: What is called entrusting? This is what is called entrusting!

The wild goat fell on the hillside.

Li Long breathed a sigh of relief and didn't go over immediately. He panted heavily, recovering his physical strength, while pressing bullets into the magazine.

After recovering for a few minutes, Li Long carried the rifle and walked to the goat.

The wild goat had already lost its breath and didn't move. That shot hit its chest, most likely shredding its internal organs.

Li Long carried the rifle, pulled out a knife, cut a knife at the blood vessel on its neck, straightened his body, and stepped on it hard, making sure to drain the blood in the wild goat's body as much as possible.

Not long after, the wild goat's neck was no longer bleeding.

Li Long looked around. Currently, the sun had just revealed a head, which was still early. He picked up the goat and put it on his back, held the rifle in his right hand, and supported the goat with his left hand and walked down the mountain.

This goat weighed thirty or forty kilograms, and just carrying it back would take more than an hour.

Fortunately, he could take a shortcut, no need to enter the hot spring gully again. From here, he cut diagonally across the head of the hot spring gully and went straight to the wooden cabin.

Occasionally, one or two drops of blood would drip down, falling on Li Long's clothes. He didn't care. He wore old clothes when hunting, and it was always this set. He would wash it when he had time after hunting, and there was no need to wash it very clean, anyway, it was dirt-resistant.

The sun had just come out, and the dew hadn't dissipated yet. Li Long's trousers were already soaked, and the trouser legs stuck to his legs, feeling very uncomfortable. He was anxious to return to the wooden cabin quickly to change clothes. After the second gully after the hot spring gully, he suddenly remembered, isn't this the gully that the young man who exchanged the four metal pieces with him yesterday mentioned?

Unfortunately, Li Long was carrying the wild goat and was anxious to leave, so he didn't look for anything in the gully and hurried over.

In a gully less than five hundred meters away from Li Long, under the cover of shrubs, that tall and thin person was looking for something in the stream.

He originally wanted to leave the mountains last night and go to the county, but after Li Long's advice, he returned to his dugout for safety.

After being woken up by the gunshot early this morning, this person simply got up. When washing his face by the stream, he suddenly thought, since those four metal pieces yesterday could be exchanged for thirty yuan, if he found other good things, could he also exchange them for money?

With this thought, he immediately ran to the stream where he found the copper mirror and metal pieces and started looking.

Searching for a long time in that area, except for some scattered copper coins and rotten cloth pieces, he didn't find anything else.

This area looked like it had been washed out by a flood. The tall and thin person looked upstream, where the shrubs were denser. The tall and thin person had seen wolves in this forest area, and he didn't dare to walk into it.

Forget it, forget it, saving his life is important. Better get something to eat and leave here quickly.

Li Long returned to the wooden cabin, put the wild goat by the spring, quickly went to the wooden cabin, opened the door and went in, changed his clothes and trousers, and then felt better.

After changing clothes, Li Long hung the dirty clothes on the side of the tractor's carriage outside, took a knife and a basin and went to the spring, and started skinning and gutting.

Soon, the sheepskin was skinned, smeared with salt, and placed aside. He didn't expect that wasps would run over so early to eat something. However, after smearing salt, the wasps only dared to hover on the sheepskin or come to the mutton side.

Li Long dug out the wild goat's internal organs and put them in a basin, untied the mutton in large pieces and put them in another basin, and then washed the stomach and intestines.

When the stomach and intestines were washed clean, Li Long straightened his body. He put water in the internal organ basin, carried it to the small room, smeared salt on the disassembled mutton, and found a clean sack to pack it up.

Although he was a bit hungry, he didn't intend to eat. First, he packed all the fritillaria in the small wooden cabin, one bag for the dry ones, and two bags for the wet ones, and put them on the tractor, including that piece of deer antler.

There were still some supplies left in the small room. Li Long didn't care too much. Calculating, they weren't worth much. Now the most valuable thing here was this fritillaria. He planned to go down the mountain once.

The door was locked, the tractor was shaken, and Li Long drove away chugging.

Although he knew that this movement was quite big, Li Long had no choice. After all, he couldn't find anyone else to guard here. In fact, he could let his eldest brother come over, but his eldest brother obviously still wanted to weave carrying poles to earn money, earning money with his own strength and craftsmanship, and he couldn't interrupt his enthusiasm.

Then let's do this first. It's only half a day, there shouldn't be any trouble, right?

The tractor drove out of the mountains at high speed, passed Qingshuihe, turned onto the Wuyi Highway, and when it arrived at the county town, it was only more than an hour later.

At this time, it was when everyone was eating breakfast. Li Long was very satisfied with his speed.

He drove the tractor to the courtyard and happened to bump into Gu Xiaoxia. Just as Gu Xiaoxia turned to lock the door, she heard the sound of the tractor and turned her head to see Li Long.

"Back?" Gu Xiaoxia asked pleasantly surprised.

"Well, back." Li Long smiled and said, "In a hurry, slaughtered a wild goat, put some meat at home, but not much. My two friends in the mountains are in the animal husbandry team. I'm going to send some meat and supplies to their two families, and then sell some fritillaria."

"Fine, then when are you going back?"

"Leaving in a while. Now it's the fritillaria season, there are a lot of supplies in the wooden cabin, and the woven carrying poles are also placed there, so I dare not leave for too long."

"Fine, then you pay attention to safety." Gu Xiaoxia was slightly disappointed, but she also knew that for Li Long now, those jobs in the mountains were the most important. She exhorted a few words and then went to work.

Li Long drove the tractor into the courtyard, took the fritillaria that hadn't dried yet to the side room to dry, and then collected the fritillaria that had already dried. Together with the fritillaria he dried in the mountains, it added up to more than half a bag.

Li Long estimated it himself. These fritillaria could be less than twenty kilograms, which was not small. He threw that half piece of deer antler in the side room and didn't intend to take it. It was too little, better to accumulate some before selling.

After getting these things done, Li Long drove the tractor out, locked the door, and went straight to the acquisition station.

Chen Hongjun came out when he heard the sound of the tractor. After seeing Li Long, he said with a smile:

"I guessed it was you when I heard the sound of this tractor. I just started work and you came over. Did you arrive last night?"

"No, arrived in the morning." Li Long drove the tractor into the courtyard of the acquisition station and said with a smile, "Now it's the fritillaria season in the mountains, so I've been very busy lately. Look, I collected a bag of dried fritillaria and sent it to you."

"You sent it, it must be right." Chen Hongjun said so, but after Li Long took the fritillaria down, he still opened the bag and checked it carefully, then poured it into the large basket inside the counter and looked through it.

"Not bad, not bad, almost no impurities, and nothing moldy or deteriorated. It's definitely no problem to rate it as first-class." Chen Hongjun nodded appreciatively after reading it, "I'll weigh it for you and issue a ticket now."

Eighteen kilograms nine, forty-five yuan per kilogram, a total of eight hundred and fifty yuan and five jiao.

After Li Long received the money, Chen Hongjun originally wanted to chat with him, but Li Long really had no time. He still had to hurry to do other things.

With the money, he first went to the department store and bought some things. Some of these things were to be put in the wooden cabin as supplementary supplies, and some were to be given to the families of Halimu and Yushanjiang. The strong labor force on both sides was not there, and Li Long naturally had to take on the responsibility of sending supplies when he had time.

Not only daily supplies, but he also bought some exercise books, pens, and other cultural supplies. These should all be useful.

Coming out of the department store, Li Long went to the market again. This time he bought food. The food he sent to the two families last time shouldn't have been eaten up. This time Li Long bought what was used in the mountains, including eggs.

Sister Yang was still selling breakfast. She was also very happy to see Li Long driving the tractor over.

Li Long was hungry, so he stopped and said to her:

"Sister Yang, get me a meal."

"Good!" Sister Yang smiled and filled Li Long with a bowl of mixed noodle porridge, and also took a leavened pancake with vegetables. This surprised Li Long a bit; it turned out that Sister Yang had also started making pancakes.

This pancake was made of white flour mixed with corn flour, baked golden brown, and looked appetizing.

Li Long ate a pancake in two or three bites, and then Sister Yang gave him another one. After eating, he waved his hand to indicate he wouldn't eat anymore, drank the warm porridge in one breath, Li Long wiped his mouth and handed the bowl to Sister Yang. He went to the back carriage, took out a piece of wild goat ribs from the sack and handed it to Sister Yang:

"This was hunted in the mountains today, leave a piece with you, eat slowly, I'm leaving!"

Chugging, he drove the tractor away from the market, leaving behind a cloud of oil smoke.

The direction of the animal husbandry team was directly south in the county town, parallel to the direction of Qingshuihe. There was also a road here to go to Xiaobaiyang Gou, so Li Long planned to go to the animal husbandry team, give the things to Halimu's mother and Yushanjiang's family, and then go straight up the mountain to the wooden cabin from Xiaobaiyang Gou. The animal husbandry team was relatively quiet now. The children were all at school, and most of the left-behind were old people. When they had nothing to do, they sat in the room, twisting wool yarn or basking in the sun. He smelled a fragrant smell of naan, and didn't know whose family was making naan.

Li Long first arrived at Halimu's home. Halimu's mother, that old lady, was building cow dung cakes in the courtyard. These should have been transported by Halimu. By the wall, cow dung cakes were piled half a person high, and coal covered with grass was on the side.

Hearing the sound of the tractor, the old lady turned her head to look. After seeing Li Long, she froze for a moment, and then grinned.

Li Long turned off the engine and got off the car, and said to the old lady:

"I brought you meat!"

Only after finishing did he remember that the old lady couldn't understand Mandarin, so he went to the car carriage, took out two wild goat legs, and signaled to the old man.

The old man hurriedly waved his hand and said a string of words. Li Long could only hear the meaning of no, and couldn't understand the rest.

However, he didn't allow the old lady to refuse, took the sheep leg and walked into the room.

The room was really not big, the kitchen and bedroom were together, a bit similar to the winter dugout in the mountains. Li Long found an empty basin and put the meat in it.

The old lady followed in, still saying something, and Li Long didn't care that much. When he disassembled the sheep, he basically disassembled the four legs, and the body was cut from the ribs. He left one side for Sister Yang, and planned to leave the other side and the spine in the wooden cabin for himself to eat slowly.

!.

These two families, one family two legs, were all one front and one back, not distinguishing between each other.

Putting down the sheep leg, Li Long took another portion of daily supplies and put it on the bed. The things in here could all be understood, so he didn't explain much.

The old lady took out a small bag from her clothes, opened it layer by layer, and inside was money. Li Long hurriedly waved his hand, helped her close the cloth bag again. This money couldn't be taken, that would be slapping the face!

Seeing Li Long didn't accept the money, the old man went to make milk tea. Li Long hurriedly waved his hand, pointed to the car, and then said:

"Yushanjiang!"

His meaning was that he still had to send meat to Yushanjiang's family, then waved his hand at the old lady and left.

In fact, if time was sufficient, he planned to stay and chat with the old lady. Even if he couldn't understand, having someone to talk to the old lady, the feeling would be different.

Wait until this busy period is over. He had said before that he would repair the house and courtyard for the two families, but he was temporarily busy.

Li Long shook the tractor, went up, waved at the old lady, and went to Yushanjiang's home.

After watching Li Long leave, the old lady wiped her eyes and turned to deal with the meat. The weather was hot, if that meat wasn't dealt with, it would go bad.

Yushanjiang's wife was growing vegetables in the courtyard. They weren't really not growing vegetables at all. Yushanjiang's wife would grow some. Li Long saw that it seemed to be potatoes? And onions?

However, didn't care that much. Seeing her look over, Li Long greeted her, and then took two sheep legs from the car carriage, which surprised Yushanjiang's wife very much. Like Halimu's mother, she said a lot of words.

Li Long smiled, handed her the sheep leg, then turned and went to the car to take daily supplies, and followed into the room.

The woman said some words, Li Long couldn't understand, he just pointed to the tractor outside, indicating he had an emergency, and was about to walk out.

Yushanjiang's wife chased out and also wanted to give money, which Li Long refused.

Just kidding, how could he accept money?

He felt he owed Halimu and Yushanjiang too much. If measured by money, it couldn't be calculated.

Of course, they owed each other.

Li Long got on the tractor, waved at Yushanjiang's wife, and when he was ready to leave, a man rode a horse over. After seeing Li Long, he asked in Mandarin with a rolled tongue:

"Are you Yushanjiang's friend?"

"Yes. I sent some things to his family. They moved, the men are not there, the family must have some difficulties."

"Yes, yes, yes, I heard Yushanjiang mention you," that person was more than forty years old, wearing a worn-out duckbill cap, "I am Adili, the deputy captain left behind by the animal husbandry team. I heard you sent things to them last time, very good, very good. It's really not bad for their two families to have a friend like you. I thank you on behalf of the animal husbandry team!"

"You're welcome, Duosen ma, Adaxi ma, you're welcome." Li Long smiled and said, "If there's nothing else, I won't stay. There are still some things in the mountains. I will come over in a while and repair the houses for their two families. Let's chat again then, how about it?"

"Good, good, good." Adili's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he said with a smile, "You are really good! Yaxixi! A real Adaxi!"

Li Long left the animal husbandry team under Adili's gaze and drove straight into the mountains.

Adili asked Yushanjiang's wife what this person came for. Yushanjiang's wife said truthfully, and Adili nodded and left.

Li Long entered the mountains and turned towards the mouth of Xiaobaiyang Gou, but he didn't enter the gully, but drove straight to the wooden cabin.

The people in the team who were weaving carrying poles in Bai Yang Gou also heard the chugging sound. They thought the tractor would turn in, but didn't expect the sound to come from far to near, and then go far away.

"Is it not Without Xiao Long's tractor? Did a new tractor enter the mountains again? Are there so many rich people now?" Lu Yingming asked curiously while weaving carrying poles.

"No, this tractor is Without Xiao Long's." Li Jianguo knew the sound of his brother's tractor very well, "He should have something to do, in a hurry to return to the wooden house. Didn't you hear, this sound came from the east, indicating he didn't go up the mountain from Qingshuihe. He has a pile of things by the wooden house, it won't work if he leaves for too long."

When Li Long's tractor drove near the wooden house, he saw someone running south from the direction of the wooden house in a panic. He quickly drove the tractor to chase. That person saw the tractor chasing over, and immediately ran to the west away from the tractor. Li Long looked at the distance, stopped the car, turned off the engine, aimed the rifle and "bang" fired a shot above that person.

"Stop, or the next shot will hit your leg!"

That person was startled, fell a somersault on the ground, and when he got up and wanted to run, he heard Li Long's shout, and he immediately didn't dare to run.

This one really dared to shoot!

Li Long carried the rifle and walked over with big strides. When passing the wooden house, he found that both doors of the wooden house had been pried open.

He could see things scattered all over the ground, he was very angry!

Walking to that person, he found that this person was carrying two bags, both bags were bulging. Li Long guessed that if this person wasn't too greedy and just took some things and left, he might not have really discovered it.

That person lay on the ground and didn't dare to move. After hearing the footsteps, he hurriedly begged for mercy:

"Sorry, sorry, I was really too hungry, seeing you weren't there, I thought about opening the door to see what was there, and as a result... I couldn't help it..."

Li Long didn't believe his nonsense. If you couldn't help it, could you pack so many things?

He stepped forward and kicked this person's ribs, causing this person to scream in pain.

"Don't pretend, get up! Carry the things back to the wooden house!"

That person didn't dare to resist, covered his liver area and obediently got up, honestly carrying the things, and slowly moved towards the wooden house.

Li Long pointed at him with the rifle, walked all the way to the wooden house, sternly told him to put the things down, then took a rope, tied this guy tightly, and then it was a punch and kick!

Mainly because he found that many things in the house hadn't been taken away, but were destroyed!

The rice and flour bags were cut open, the air-dried meat that hadn't been taken away was thrown on the ground, and some had even been stepped on. The lid of the liquor was also opened, one crate was even overturned on the ground, and now the whole house smelled of liquor!

This guy is really not a thing!

For a time, screams echoed incessantly, but Li Long simply ignored them, nor did he gag him, just dealing with him ruthlessly like this.

After venting his anger a little, this guy's face had turned into a pig's head, but the most serious injury should be the ribs. Li Long should have broken or cracked a few of his ribs.

It's also deserved! (End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 475 =====
