Chapter 185: Selling Nothing

~8 min read 1,587 words

Although badgers aren't rare, it's quite difficult for ordinary people to eat one once a year, because this thing isn't easy to catch.

People in the countryside all know the scene of digging badger holes; it's no different from digging a foundation for a house. The most damn annoying thing is that while you are digging the badger hole, some badgers are continuing to dig, which is damn harder and harder to dig!

The three of them worked very tacitly and neatly, and soon the roasted badger meat was cooked.

While waiting for the meat, Wang An showed off the wine pot again. Two sips each, just to warm up the body, that's it. Drinking more is absolutely impossible. This is the deep mountains and old forests, what if something big happens?

Although the three of them didn't have small drinking capacities, and Wang An and Wang Li were even more hands that couldn't be drunk, drinking would absolutely affect reaction speed! For the sake of their little lives, endure it, no problem.

Wang An has a habit when eating roasted meat: the first piece of roasted meat, he doesn't add any seasoning, including salt. He just roasts it until it's cooked and eats it directly.

Because Wang An feels that no matter what kind of meat, as long as it's delicious in this state, then no matter how this meat is cooked, as long as it's cooked, its taste will absolutely not be bad!

Just like women, as long as this woman is beautiful and has a good figure, then whether she wears makeup or not, or various jewelry and clothes, it won't affect this woman attracting men's eyeballs!

Even if this woman only wears a big sack, and she is still a nun without hair, it won't delay thousands of men wanting to sleep with her!

Eating the badger meat without any seasoning, Wang An immediately decided not to sell badger oil.

Just keep some badger oil for home use. Anyway, no matter how much money, besides selling the badger fur, don't sell anything else!

Mainly because this thing is too damn delicious!

Badger meat can produce so much badger oil, which shows that its meat has more fat and less lean meat, but this fat meat doesn't feel greasy when eaten.

Not only is it not greasy, but it also has a very unique meat fragrance. Having eaten so much prey meat, even the meat of yellow sheep and blue sheep can't compare to badger meat, or rather, it's already a level higher!

Wang An has only eaten non-greasy fat meat in braised pork and steamed pork, but both braised pork and steamed pork have undergone special treatment.

And badger meat? It's cooked!

It's just simply cooked!

How big the gap is, you can tell just by eating a piece of cooked meat like this.

No wonder those elderly people in the village, whenever they mention badger meat, they all swallow their saliva. This thing is enough to rival flying dragon soup.

After a while, the boiled badger meat was also cooked. This meat was trembling, and it looked delicious at first glance. The three of them each filled a bowl and started to feast!

When eating badger meat, no one spoke anymore, and no one raised their heads; they were all eating with their heads down.

This matter proves a truth: delicious things can truly block the mouth!

The wooden bowl Wang Li used was also taken from Seeing Mu Xueli's home. How many wooden bowls Mu Hua specifically chiseled, no one knows.

But using Seeing Mu Xueli's words: "There are plenty of these things at home. The bowls used by the three dogs are all chiseled from wood!"

When Seeing Mu Xueli said this, Wang An and Wang Li, the two brothers, subconsciously looked at the wooden bowls in their hands, and then looked at the wooden bowl in Seeing Mu Xueli's hand in unison!

Then, the brothers' eyes became very unfriendly, and they looked at Seeing Mu Xueli in unison. The fighting spirit in their eyes was absolutely real!

Seeing Mu Xueli was stunned for a moment, and soon reacted to the ambiguity of this sentence. He hurriedly explained: "I mean our three bowls and the three dogs' bowls are the same!"

Hearing this, Wang An and Wang Li put down the bowls in their hands at the same time and stood up.

Seeing Mu Xueli might have had a premonition that he was going to be beaten, and hurriedly continued to explain in a panic: "I mean our three bowls, are the three dogs' bowls!"

As soon as the words fell, Wang An and Wang Li pressed Seeing Mu Xueli, who had stood up halfway and was still bending over, back to the ground.

Then, Wang An's big palm "crackled" and slapped Seeing Mu Xueli's back.

The force used was quite strong, sounding like setting off firecrackers, "pong-pong-pong" in a mess. It's just that anyone who has played like this knows that it doesn't hurt at all, and it's like beating the back, which is quite comfortable!

Wang Li didn't move his hands, after all, he was a younger brother. But the charge of being an accomplice absolutely couldn't run away, because he was shouting: "Fourth brother, use force, he cursed us." After the first few slaps, Seeing Mu Xueli was still begging for mercy. After a few more slaps, Seeing Mu Xueli actually started humming while panting, without any awareness of being beaten.

Wang An was so angry that he slapped Seeing Mu Xueli's head with a "slap," finally beating Seeing Mu Xueli out of his enjoyment.

After eating and drinking enough, Wang An felt that this badger meat made people quite comfortable, so he looked toward the next badger hole that hadn't been dug out yet. But going home also requires time, so he dismissed the idea of going to dig out the next badger hole.

The three of them tied the dogs to the sled, drove the sled, and visited the six places where sable clamps were set. Of course, they just took a look from far away.

Sables are very shrewd, and their noses and ears are also very awesome. Any animal approaching, it might know. So the clamps are already set, just take a look to see if anything is clamped. If you approach, that is absolutely a stupid behavior.

Not surprisingly, the 200 clamps had no movement, which is to say, there was no harvest for the time being!

However, catching this thing originally depends on "bumping into it." Thinking too much is useless, only increasing troubles.

If it were so easy to catch, how would those who make a living by catching this thing, but can only catch two or three a year, or even only one, live?

The three of them finished checking the clamps, because there was plenty of time, the three of them went to check the snares again. The harvest was okay. In less than a day, they caught 11 jumping cats, clamped 4 pheasants, 9 half-jin birds, and 3 flying dragons.

Adding the harvest from the morning, a total of 39 jumping cats, 9 pheasants, 9 half-jin birds, and 10 flying dragons.

The reason the quantity was this was because when setting sable clamps, 8 half-jin birds were chopped up as bait and weren't enough, so another pheasant was chopped up to be enough.

It must be said that if Wang An and the three of them didn't catch a single sable, they would be sorry for these 8 half-jin birds and one pheasant!

The clamps can't be talked about, because at the very least, these clamps are collected back and can still be used to clamp rats. In short, it's not a waste.

With all the work finished, they packed up to head home, the three of them driving the sled, bragging, puffing on cigarettes, and feeling truly content.

When they were about to arrive home, Wang An asked: "I don't plan to sell the badger meat, what are your opinions?"

"Brother-in-law, if we don't sell it, wouldn't there be too much? Can't finish eating it, right?" Seeing Mu Xueli asked suspiciously.

"Yeah, fourth brother, there's too much." Wang Li echoed.

Wang An thought for a while and said: "Then you guys sell the badger oil, it's more appropriate than selling meat, and you can also have oil residue to eat."

"Hmm, then I'll let my mother make it all into oil to sell." Wang Li responded first.

"Hmm, this is also fine. This big badger carcass is only about 10 jin, selling meat is a waste. Okay, then listen to brother-in-law." Seeing Mu Xueli also agreed.

"These flying dragons are now 6 yuan each, do you guys want to keep them to eat or sell them?" Wang An continued to ask.

"Sell, mine is to be sold, fourth brother..." Wang Li, hearing the price of 6 yuan, said impatiently.

"Brother-in-law, I also want to sell them. What isn't eating? This thing doesn't have much meat after plucking the feathers, and drinking too much soup is just like that." Seeing Mu Xueli also couldn't hold back when he heard this price.

"Okay, then I'll sell all the flying dragons next time I go to the county. Selling more for money is no problem." Wang An thought for a while and said.

Begging for follow-up reads, begging for votes, thank you.
