Chapter 188: Changing the Village Head

~8 min read 1,531 words

This time digging badgers, the first thing exploded out by the firecracker was actually two raccoon dogs!

Raccoon dogs, in some places called li, in the Northeast there are also called earth badgers, but it is not a badger.

Raccoon dogs, this kind of animal, look very much like foxes. It can be said that at first glance, they are the same. People who don't know might very well think it is a fox.

Actually, these two animals are still easy to distinguish. Raccoon dogs have black eye sockets, which is to say, there is a circle of black hair around the eye sockets. While foxes don't.

Raccoon dogs in the Northeast deep mountains are basically grey, so you can tell by looking at the eye sockets.

Of course, there are also a few pure white and pure black raccoon dogs, which don't have eye sockets. If you can't distinguish by color, then look at the legs. Raccoon dog legs are short, fox legs are long.

If you are still a bit confused, then you can only look at the tail. Fox tails are long, raccoon dog tails are short!

With so many differences, if you still can't distinguish, then you can only go to the hospital.

Go to the hospital and find a good doctor to see if there is something wrong with your eyes. Otherwise, there is truly no other trick.

The three of them were happy, because the fur of this thing is the same price as fox fur, at least 60 yuan and up.

That is to say, originally they were just digging badgers, but the three of them picked up one hundred and twenty or thirty yuan for nothing. Surprised? Unexpected? Equivalent to Mu Xueli and Wang Li, each coming for a month's salary like a formal employee! So, both were extremely happy!

Of course, Wang An was also very happy, it's just that it wasn't so obvious.

This time, a total of 16 badgers were dug out, including 5 small ones.

Adding the harvest of the two times together, there were 22 big badgers, 9 small badgers, and two raccoon dogs.

Roughly calculating, if all these things were sold, it would be about 600 yuan, and only more, not less. This harvest was quite awesome.

After feeding the dogs, and after opening the stomachs, bleeding, and peeling the skins of all the prey, Wang An glanced at his watch and found it was only 11:30. This was too early.

Forget it, heaven and earth are big, eating is the biggest!

When eating, Wang An said to Mu Xueli and Wang Li: "The blue sheep skins this time, it is estimated that they won't sell for little. Although those few people didn't earn little, after all, they didn't hide anything, so shouldn't we also not be lacking?"

"Brother-in-law, we both listen to you, you arrange it." Mu Xueli said indifferently.

"Hmm, fourth brother, you arrange it, we'll do it." Wang Li chewed meat and hurriedly echoed.

"Okay, brothers must also settle accounts clearly. For these badgers, you two must each distribute one less, no problem, right?" Wang An thought for a while and said.

"Hmm, two are fine..." Mu Xueli finished speaking and hurriedly put a piece of meat into his mouth again.

"Hmm, hmm, hmm," Wang Li nodded and hummed a few times, not speaking again.

Originally, Wang An didn't want to let Mu Xueli and Wang Li take out meat, but things are not divided into big and small, they must be sorted out. No matter what, they are also beneficiaries. Only wanting to get but not wanting to pay is absolutely not okay.

Most importantly, he couldn't let them form a habit, but let them know that no matter what benefits they get, these benefits are not things that should be taken for granted!

Giving a handful of rice is a kindness, giving a bucket of rice is an enemy. Wang An had already taken enough care of them! Even if they were biological brothers, doing this much was enough.

After eating and drinking enough, the three of them tied the dogs to the sled and went to check the sable clamps again. Not surprisingly, there was still no harvest.

No longer delaying, the three of them drove the sled, galloping toward the direction of home.

"I'm going to the county tomorrow, you two don't wait for me. If you want to enter the mountains, just wander around the periphery. If you don't want to enter the mountains, just stay at home for a day." While chatting, Wang An said casually.

"Alright, fourth brother." "Understood, brother-in-law." Mu Xueli and Wang Li answered at the same time.

After sending Mu Xueli and the badger portion belonging to Mu Xueli to Sujiatun, Wang An and Wang Li drove the sled home. It's just that when they arrived home, they discovered that there was no one at home.

But at the small shop, a large group of people gathered, and noisy sounds came out. This must be holding a big meeting to discuss major events!

Wang An and Wang Li tied up the stallion and fed it grass, and without even opening the door, they walked toward the small shop.

Like this kind of village meeting in the Northeast countryside, fighting at the meeting is a common occurrence. A few words of disagreement might cause a war between two families. Sometimes when they get anxious, even two families will fight.

If they fight at this time, it's called the whole family going into battle together. The men fight the men, the women fight the women, and the children don't even need to be mentioned. Whichever family has more boys is awesome.

If that fight really starts, it can't be stopped, just watch it.

Of course, all those who fight must be the kind of family that is relatively overbearing usually, because in the Northeast, as long as one side yields, normally speaking, this fight absolutely won't start!

Even if they are drunk and want to act tough, people around will stop them, because people have already yielded, and you are still acting tough like this, what do you want to do?

It is very likely that the onlookers will come up to fight, and the object of the fight is not someone else, but this person acting tough!

This kind of thing in the Northeast is a normal and common thing.

The brothers walked to the meeting place and soon found their own family, because Wang Dazhu's three brothers, as well as their children, were all together at this time.

It's not just the old Wang family that is like this, the old Li family, the old Niu family, the old Sun family, are all the same, all looking for their own family!

Actually, by comparison, these three surnames are also the big surnames in Kaoshan Village! It's just that the population of each surname is more or less.

Because Kaoshan Village isn't big, there are only 70-something households, less than 80, and the old Wang family where Wang An is, counting Wang Yong and Wang Shun who separated, is only 5 households.

So, the old Wang family can't be ranked.

At this time, at the gate of the Kaoshan Tun brigade, the people of Kaoshan Tun, regardless of adults or children, basically all came.

Only seeing Niu Yiqun, don't know when he came back, sitting on a small stool at this time, lowering his head and smoking, not speaking.

And the one standing next to him speaking was the sixth uncle of Sun Dabala's uncle, Sun Physician.

Sun Physician is considered a person with prestige in Kaoshan Tun.

Because he is a person with a diploma, although it is only a high school diploma, but until now, he is still the person with the highest diploma in Kaoshan Tun!

And during the New Year, basically the whole village goes to ask him to write couplets. Even if they go empty-handed, he will answer with a smile.

Only hearing Sun Physician say: "Comrades, the superior leaders require that the land must be divided before the New Year. So, starting tomorrow, we will draw lots. Wherever you draw, that's it. Those who draw good land, don't show off, and those who draw broken land, don't complain. Does everyone say it's okay?"

"Okay!" The people below shouted in unison.

Only now did Wang An understand that this is to divide fields among households!

It's just that what Wang An is puzzled about is that the division of fields among households shouldn't be organized by Niu Yiqun?

"Dad, what's the situation? What happened to Old Niu?" Wang An asked his father suspiciously.

Only hearing Wang Dazhu say: "He committed a crime. Now the village head has changed. Sun Physician is our village head."

Wang An was shocked upon hearing this, because in Wang An's past life, until Wang An went to the South, Niu Yiqun was still the village head of Kaoshan Tun, and it had never changed!

If you have votes, reward some, begging for follow-up reads, thank you, thank you.
