Chapter 817: Who is so bold as to dare to eat the Mountain God's tribute!

The two who went to Xiao Bai Yang Gou, the driver was Master Lv Yuanfang, and the warehouse keeper responsible for inspection was Yang Liu Sheng Li.

Yang Liu Sheng Li is not an old person in the supply and marketing cooperative, having only been transferred from the township for two or three years, but he works conscientiously.

Since the leader had seriously entrusted this matter, he would complete it seriously.

Li Long had already given clear instructions beforehand, and Xie Yun Dong and the others naturally cooperated fully. He greeted everyone to stop their work and start counting the number of carrying poles in front of them, so that they could be inspected one by one later. If they were qualified, they would be recorded; if they were unqualified, if they could be repaired, they would be repaired and re-woven; if they couldn't be repaired, they would be put aside as defective products.

After Li Long's strict requirements these past few days, whether it was Xie Yun Dong's group or Xu Haijun and Liang Wenyu's groups, everyone was very clear that defective carrying poles could be taken home for family use, or given away, but they definitely couldn't be mixed into the finished products.

Others don't tolerate sand in their eyes.

Because Xie Yun Dong's group was inspected first, Xu Haijun and Liang Wenyu's groups could continue weaving first. But Xu Haijun didn't weave; he ran over to take a look.

Yang Liu Sheng Li inspected very seriously. He took the cigarette Xie Yun Dong handed him and tucked it behind his ear, holding paper and pen in his hand, and inspected every carrying pole very seriously.

Since Li Long took over the work of receiving carrying poles, big brooms, etc., the pass rate of these tools sent to the prefecture by the cooperative every year has been very high, which has become a legendary story in the cooperative.

In the past, the pass rate fluctuated, but the overall pass rate was around 85%, which was considered average in the prefecture's level.

Since Li Long took over, the pass rate soared to over 95% to 98% at once, and the pass rate of big brooms almost reached 100%—except for transportation losses, almost all were qualified.

Such a high pass rate was also the confidence that Li Xiangqian could suppress the crowd and hand this work to Li Long every year.

After all, such a high pass rate is something that can be bragged about when holding meetings in the prefecture.

"Your county doesn't have any outstanding major events this year."

"Our pass rate is the highest in the prefecture!"

"Your county doesn't have any specialties."

"Our pass rate is the highest!"

"The loss of oil materials in your county this year is quite high."

"Our county's pass rate is the highest!"

"Can you stop mentioning the pass rate? We know yours is the highest..."

"Then the leaders of the autonomous region specifically praised the big brooms our county tied..."

"Alright, alright, let's talk about your pass rate."

... Director Wei went to Beiting to serve as director. Even if the position was a horizontal transfer, in fact, others knew that this was a promotion—the director of Maxian and the director of Beiting City, although both were section-level, could they be the same?

So even if Li Xiangqian didn't remind him, Yang Liu Sheng Li wouldn't say anything unfavorable to Li Long.

He would even praise Li Long.

Fortunately, Xie Yun Dong's group were all people who had a good relationship with the Li family, and they were all old people themselves, so they wouldn't ask those sensitive questions, and they were respectful enough to Yang Liu Sheng Li, which made Yang Liu Sheng Li feel, hmm, not bad, dealing with these people was quite comfortable. And the pass rate of the carrying poles woven by these people was also high, and they humbly accepted the places he pointed out as unqualified.

This was very good.

Then Xu Haijun leaned over. When he leaned over, Yang Liu Sheng Li had already inspected the carrying poles of Li Jianguo, Lu Yingming, Xie Yun Dong, and Tao Jian She, and was inspecting Jia Weidong's. Jia Weidong told Yang Liu Sheng Li about his carrying poles, and then helped Li Jianguo and the others load the qualified carrying poles onto the truck—this was also a technical job. If they weren't loaded well and the carrying poles fell, they would still have to be counted in the cooperative, which wasn't good.

Xu Haijun came over and handed Yang Liu Sheng Li a cigarette. Yang Liu Sheng Li pointed to his ear; he was checking and counting and didn't have time to smoke.

"Manager Yang, I'd like to ask a question." Xu Haijun looked around and found that everyone was busy, even Xie Yun Dong, who was supposed to count here, was moving carrying poles. Because after Yang Liu Sheng Li finished checking this pile, he would report the qualified number, and Xie Yun Dong would record it then, and Jia Weidong would also come over to record it.

During this inspection process, there was no rush.

"You say." Yang Liu Sheng Li replied casually. This young man spoke quite politely.

"It's about these carrying poles, how much does the supply and marketing cooperative collect them for? I mean one."

"Why are you asking this?" Yang Liu Sheng Li raised his head.

He didn't expect that what Li Xiangqian reminded him of would actually happen.

This young man, his motives are impure.

"I'm just asking." Xu Haijun smiled, his expression quite honest, "Curious."

"Then I'll tell you, however much Li Long gives you, that's how much it is." Yang Liu Sheng Li lowered his head and continued to inspect, "Which pile are your carrying poles?"

"Mine are on the other side of the mountain." Xu Haijun pointed and said, "It will be our turn later."

He didn't expect that this manager's words were still defending Li Long—the supply and marketing cooperative collects them at Li Long's price? How is this possible? How could Li Long not make money from it?

Hearing this, it sounds fake.

But since the other party didn't say, Xu Haijun had no choice. After exchanging pleasantries, seeing Xie Yun Dong and Jia Weidong coming over, he turned and walked toward the other side of the mountain.

Not finding out, Xu Haijun was a bit disappointed.

Curiosity was of course one aspect, and on the other hand, he wanted to see how much money Li Long had made from it. If it was a lot, Xu Haijun wasn't without the intention of seeing if he could pry this work over.

Of course, at this moment, some people in Qingshuihe Village knew that this work of carrying poles would only be done for one year, but here, except for Li Jianguo, the others didn't know.

Yang Liu Sheng Li took note of that young man. After Xie Yun Dong came over, Yang Liu Sheng Li finished checking Jia Weidong's carrying poles, and then asked casually:

"Team Leader Xie, what's the name of that young man just now?"

"Xu Haijun, an outstanding youth in our team, just demobilized from the army." Xie Yun Dong said.

"Oh." Yang Liu Sheng Li nodded, "Not bad, quite brainy."

Could he not see Xu Haijun's meaning? He had to tell Li Long when he had time, and he had to guard against this kid.

Although Li Long was considered an outsider in the supply and marketing cooperative, he had practically brought honor to the cooperative, so he was one of their own.

Yang Liu Sheng Li was definitely on the side of his own people.

The collection of carrying poles here was finished, and it was almost mealtime. Old Huang shouted, and Xie Yun Dong and the others invited Yang Liu Sheng Li and Lv Yuanfang to eat.

"Yesterday, Li Long's eldest brother, our Comrade Li Jianguo, hunted a roe deer when cutting strips, so we're eating meat today." Xie Yun Dong introduced to Yang Liu Sheng Li, "Our master chef does banquets in the team, and his skills are quite good. It just so happens that we invite you to taste it."

"Li Long's eldest brother, hello eldest brother!" Yang Liu Sheng Li greeted Li Jianguo enthusiastically. He didn't know the details when inspecting earlier, but now that he knew he was Li Long's eldest brother, he immediately said with a smile.

"Hello, hello." Li Jianguo smiled, "You've worked hard today."

"Hey, it should be. Comrade Li Long is very powerful at hunting. I didn't expect you to be too, eldest brother. He must have become so powerful under your influence, right? It's a family tradition!"

Li Jianguo smiled and couldn't take this conversation. Xie Yun Dong hurriedly said:

"Come, come, come, let's eat."

"Eldest brother, you first, you first." Yang Liu Sheng Li was really polite, making Li Jianguo a bit embarrassed.

He could feel that the reason people were so polite to him was all because of his younger brother.

A bit vain, but also quite enjoyable.

On the side of Qingshuihe Village, He Yuling's hospitality to Master Zhang and the others was also very rich. Although Li Long wasn't there, He Yuling and the others wouldn't lower the treatment at all—the pass rate of the inspection was in their hands—simple and with a peasant-like cunning.

The number of carrying poles woven on the side of Qingshuihe Village was a bit less, and the qualified ones added up to over three hundred.

One truck here couldn't be filled, and one truck on the side of Xiao Bai Yang Gou couldn't be filled, but they didn't plan to go over there to mix and haul, which was just a matter of running one more trip.

This couldn't be helped, it wasn't allocated well beforehand. Yang Liu Sheng Li didn't have anything to say, but Lv Yuanfang was a bit dissatisfied. However, when Xie Yun Dong handed two wild boar legs to the two people when the truck was ready to leave, these two people immediately had no thoughts.

"Isn't it just running one more trip? It doesn't count for anything!" Lv Yuanfang put the wild boar legs into the truck and smiled, "People in our team are honest and enthusiastic, and people in our cooperative can't be bad."

In fact, it was also a good thing for Xie Yun Dong and the others to inspect and haul away these woven carrying poles. Stacking too many was also a heart disease, hanging there. It was hard to say whether they were qualified or not, and it was hard to say whether they might be lost. Now it was good, all the qualified ones were hauled away, and everyone had a solid number in their hearts about how much money they had earned these past few days.

At Ye Erjiang's winter camp, Li Long and the others had just hidden in the car when bean-sized raindrops smashed down.

The dust on the ground was smashed up by the raindrops, and a smell of earth soon filled the air, followed by the smell of dampness and green grass.

Although that black cloud didn't look very big, the rain fell urgently and densely. The few people hiding in the winter camp were extremely embarrassed—the roof of the winter camp had already been removed, and at this moment, it was covered with a layer of wood, which couldn't completely block the rain.

Even the pot of boiled meat fell into the rain—although the pot lid was covered, there was quite a lot of meat put in at the time, which pushed the pot lid up, and at this moment, the rain fell in.

Ten minutes later, the rain suddenly became smaller in less than a minute, and then stopped.

It really came as it said, and left as it said.

When the sunlight shone down again, some people hadn't reacted yet.

"It's cleared up?" A young man asked, still confused.

His clothes were almost soaked, and he felt very cold, but at this moment, when the sun shone, he started to feel hot again.

"Come out, wring out the water on your clothes." Meng Hai got off the car, "Sun yourself, and you'll be fine in a while."

"I want to take off my clothes." The young man said, "It's uncomfortable to stick to my body."

"No, if you take it off and the wind blows, you'll catch a cold and fever in the afternoon." Meng Hai said, "Go roast by the pot, and drink a bowl of hot soup to get rid of the cold."

The wind in the mountains is strong, one gust after another. You don't feel it when your clothes are dry, but it's easy to make people sick after being drenched in rain. At this time, you definitely can't take off your clothes, and of course, you can't just stay wet like this.

Fortunately, there is a stove and fire.

The ground is wet, but not soaked through. There are raindrops on the grass leaves, and they shine when the sun shines.

However, when the mountain wind blows, the raindrops either fall into the mud or are blown by the wind to other grass branches.

The air after the rain is exceptionally fresh, mixed with a faint floral and grassy scent, which is intoxicating.

In a short while, the ground dried first, then the grass dried, and in a while, the clothes dried.

Laughter and laughter rose again, eating meat, gnawing on naan, and drinking soup, which seemed exceptionally tasty after a rain.

After eating at noon, Li Long rested for a while, then told Meng Hai and the others to go pick mushrooms on the grass.

Meng Hai and the others raised both hands in favor and specifically gave Li Long a fertilizer bag.

Li Long smiled and took it, slung his gun, carried his backpack, and walked toward the grass in the south.

The sunlight was strong, but the body temperature wasn't very hot. With gusts of mountain wind blowing, it felt cool.

As Li Long walked up, he saw a small mushroom ring.

This mushroom ring was more than two meters in diameter. He bent down to pick up a mushroom and found that it was full of wormholes. It should have been formed a day or two ago, and it had become food for insects by now.

What a pity.

Continuing forward, walking less than a hundred meters, he saw a row of seven, hidden in the grass, the smallest of which was as big as a head.

Li Long ran over in surprise, picked up the nearest mushroom, and it was not bad. The diameter of the mushroom umbrella was more than twenty centimeters, and the taste was very full. Although it looked a bit old, fortunately, there were no insects biting it.

It was a giant type of straw mushroom.

Seven large mushrooms, four were eaten by insects and couldn't be wanted. Li Long pulled off the remaining three and put them into the fertilizer bag. If you stir-fry one of these things, a family wouldn't be able to finish it.

Moving forward, he encountered two fresh puffballs, one bigger than a football, and one about the size of a volleyball, both very fresh.

Fresh puffballs can also be eaten, but Li Long felt that it was better to leave this thing here; he didn't have the habit of eating this thing.

There were quite a few things growing on the grass. Li Long also saw a mushroom ring with a diameter of only one meter. It seemed to be just formed. The mushrooms were not big, the largest was palm-sized, and the smallest was like a finger, all of which hadn't opened their umbrellas—the film under the mushroom umbrella hadn't fallen off yet.

He estimated that these mushrooms should have grown after the rain. These mushrooms must be very fresh, so he picked them one by one, removed the roots, and put them into the bag.

Looking up again, Li Long was surprised to find that he was already very close to the mountain wall he had hunted before, at most less than two hundred meters away.

And when he looked up, he found that there were yellow flowers on the mountain wall... that thing, could it be a snow lotus?

Li Long was a bit excited. If it really was a snow lotus, it would be a surprise—go take a look!

Li Long couldn't care about looking for mushrooms anymore—in fact, the mushrooms on this grass didn't need to be looked for at all, as long as you walked forward, you could see them.

But at the moment, his mind was full of snow lotus, and he wouldn't care about mushrooms at all.

And just less than a hundred meters away from the mountain wall, Li Long suddenly discovered that there was a black thing lying on the place where he had put the wolf and deer offal just now, gnawing on those "tributes."
