Chapter 108
Looking at the two large piles of valuable prey, and then looking at the Mongolian gazelles all over the snow nest, the mood was so comfortable, beautiful!
After counting, there were 36 wolf corpses, 21 red dog corpses, and of course, one tiger cub corpse; his brother-in-law was about to finish skinning it!
It's just that the skins of 14 wolf corpses and 7 red dog corpses were basically ruined; they definitely wouldn't be worth much money!
Making coats is also out of the question, because they lack fur; making mattresses is actually quite good, but mattresses aren't very useful if you make too many!
The skins of more than ten yellow-throated marten corpses are okay, but they aren't worth money; this thing's skin is not warm, and the fur is sparse.
However, the hand feel is still okay; his brother-in-law likes to touch it, so giving it to his brother-in-law is no problem at all!
"Xueli, I'll go drive the sled; you pick the wolves with good fur and skin them; you must pay attention to safety; keep the big 54 well, I'll take it back later; your Mosin-Nagant fires a bit slowly," Wang An said, handing the big 54 to his brother-in-law, and turned to leave!
"Got it, brother-in-law, don't worry!" Mu Xueli took the big 54 and said casually.
Ten-plus minutes later, Wang An walked to the sled, tied the big stallion behind the sled pulled by the big blue horse, and drove the big blue horse to set off.
This big blue horse is truly not as easy to use as the big stallion; when approaching the wolf corpse pile, it became irritable and uneasy and wouldn't walk forward at all.
Wang An was so angry he wanted to beat the big blue horse; it was afraid even though the wolves were dead; truly a coward, nothing at all!
The wolf skins and big bear skins at home have been hanging in the horse shed; the big mare at home isn't afraid, but this big blue horse is so cowardly; I don't know why!
Suddenly, Wang An remembered something Feng Chengmin said; horses with small courage are better if fed meat; it is said that Ewenki horses all eat meat.
His eyes instantly lit up, and he decided to try it; Wang An tied the big blue horse to a tree, turned around, and cut two small strips of meat from the tiger cub, and fed the big stallion first.
The big stallion smelled it first, and then ate it, making Wang An dumbfounded!
You have to say, this big stallion really eats meat!
However, when it was the big blue horse's turn, the big blue horse was quite useless, shaking its head to avoid the meat, and didn't even smell it.
Wang An lost patience, hugged the big blue horse's head, and stuffed the meat into the big blue horse's mouth!
He saw the big blue horse startled and lifted its head, standing up directly, bringing Wang An, who was still hugging the horse's head, off the ground.
Wang An was instantly off the ground, also a bit panicked, hugging the horse's head and not daring to let go, experiencing the feeling of a human flying in the air.
The big blue horse stood for a while and then came down; it originally wanted to spit out the meat strip in its mouth, but maybe its tongue touched the meat, and it ate the meat strip it had spit out halfway!
Wang An looked at the big blue horse eating meat and revealed a smile of successful mischief, but the big blue horse seemed to have eaten one piece and didn't have enough, taking the initiative to smell Wang An's hand.
Wang An was happy when he saw this, turned around and cut another small strip of wolf meat, and fed it to the big blue horse; this big blue horse seemed to eat quite fragrantly, but after all, it is a herbivorous animal; Wang An was afraid of feeding too much and having an accident, so although the big blue horse still wanted to eat, he didn't dare to feed it anymore.
Leading the big blue horse close to the wolf corpse pile again, this big blue horse seemed to be still a little afraid, but it dared to walk forward!
It must be said that old hunters have truly a lot of experience; like this kind of thing, if no one said it, Wang An couldn't possibly know that horses eat meat, and he definitely wouldn't know that horses eating meat would strengthen their courage!
Driving the sled close and tying it well, Mu Xueli had already skinned four wolf skins; Wang An didn't go to skin the wolves, but went to catch Mongolian gazelles.
Of these one hundred and more Mongolian gazelles, at least twenty-plus were still alive; the living ones were trapped in places where the snow was relatively shallow, and they were all strong big sheep!
Naturally, he had to catch the living ones first, because the price of these living ones and dead ones is completely different; and like these wild animals, even if you raise them, no one will say anything.
Mainly because the wind has already loosened now; there is basically no management for raising livestock and poultry, otherwise no matter how many you raise, it's in vain; they will confiscate them all and punish you severely!
Still have to thank that old man who drew the circle!
After catching one and tying it up, he put it next to the sled; after catching them all, there were 24 living Mongolian gazelles, including 6 rams and 18 ewes.
At this time, Mu Xueli also finished skinning all the wolves and red dogs with good fur.
In places where the snow was slightly shallow, he pulled out the 16 Mongolian gazelles that had already died; jumping roe deer, dead Mongolian gazelles, and skins were placed under the sled, and the living ones were placed on top!
The two didn't delay and drove the sled home!
As for the wolf corpses and such, throwing them there wouldn't be lost; even if one or two were lost, it was basically nothing! Wolf meat is not as delicious as mutton.
Driving fast, until after three o'clock in the afternoon, the two arrived home; they walked for a full six hours!
People, horses, and dogs were all completely exhausted; even that routine shout after arriving at the courtyard, Wang An shouted weakly!
However, the family, who hadn't been very at ease, ran out quickly.
"Did you two go to clear out someone's sheep pen?" Liu Guilan asked in surprise when she saw the full sled of sheep.
"Clear out what sheep pen, didn't you see these are Mongolian gazelles?" Wang An was tired and hungry, and his speech was weak.
However, he still arranged while unloading the horses: "Xueqing, hurry up and get us some noodles, get a lot."
Thinking for a moment, he said: "Boil another pot of water, these two horses have only been gnawing snow for two days."
"Okay, I'll go right away," Mu Xueqing turned and ran into the house.
"Is this thing so easy to catch?" Wang Dazhu asked with a frown.
Liu Guilan also looked over with an inquiring look.
Anyone with a little common sense knows that Mongolian gazelles, let alone catching them alive, are truly quite difficult to find.
Hearing his father's inquiry, and seeing his mother's look, Wang An's eyes turned, and he said casually to his brother-in-law: "Xueli, hurry up and tell your uncle and aunt what happened."
After Wang An finished speaking, he went to tie the dogs and feed them; the dogs had been eating jumping roe deer meat for two days, so he had to feed them some black bear meat; there was plenty of that at home now!
After Wang An finished feeding the dogs, he saw the couple unloading the car while listening to Mu Xueli's storytelling performance! His brother-in-law's performance was indeed quite exciting, gesturing wildly, spitting flying everywhere!
And the couple was fascinated, and the speed of their work slowed down.
I don't know why his brother-in-law wasn't hungry when he started performing, and his energy suddenly became vigorous!
Not paying attention to these three people, he turned to feed the horses, two big bowls of corn kernels and a handful of salt particles for each horse!
While blowing on the noodles, Mu Xueli suddenly said: "Brother-in-law, you know the situation at my house; I don't want to raise these living Mongolian gazelles; you keep them all, okay?"
"Why wouldn't that be okay? Then divide more of the dead ones to you," Wang An said while slurping noodles.
"We can't eat that many dead ones either; how about you take the trouble to sell them all, and just divide me a little money," Mu Xueli said with a grin.
Mu Xueqing also covered her mouth and giggled when she heard her brother say this!
When Wang An heard this, the noodles in his mouth were forgotten to be swallowed, and he just stared straight at his brother-in-law, making Mu Xueli a bit confused!
After a long time, he squeezed out a sentence: "Are you truly shameless? So many, and you still let me take 'a little' trouble?"
After swallowing the noodles, he continued: "Come, tell me, how big is this 'little'?"
Mu Xueli wasn't embarrassed at all, laughing and saying: "I have strength; I'm responsible for transportation."
Wang An looked at his brother-in-law blankly; this brother-in-law's brain had no problems at all; at critical moments, it was truly useful! He pushed all the difficult things onto himself!
After a long silence, he said: "You definitely didn't grow this big brain for nothing; you're truly smooth at pitting your brother-in-law!"
Mu Xueli slurped the noodles, laughing and not refuting!
