Chapter 16: The Mother Boar
The cry of the wild boar was transmitted to the cliff, and then it was reflected back, and when it reached the ears of Guo Qu and the girl, the sound was naturally very loud.
The girl was scared, but Guo Qu was overjoyed, because it was money! Quickly picked up the girl, didn't bother to take the dishes and chopsticks, and then walked in the direction of the ravine.
If you want to go down the ravine, you first have to take a road that is halfway up the mountain, and then follow the road opened up by Guo to go down.
But with the girl on his back, where does he dare to go down?
If there were other wild boars, and then he went crazy again, he would have nowhere to run, and he would definitely be killed by the boar's fangs.
So he chose to put the girl on the side of the road, comforted him for a long time, and then went down the road that was opened up alone.
About a hundred meters apart, the wild boar could be seen in the distance, Guo Qu stopped, and then observed the situation in the ravine.
A large wild boar, too far away to estimate its weight, was running wildly, looming, and it was holding something between its two backwards.
Seeing this, Guo Qu was even more happy, he dared to be sure that the thing on the hind legs of the wild boar was the iron clamp he had arranged!
And it's two! Two means that the probability of the wild boar breaking free is very small, not to mention its chaotic running, it is easy to step on other clips, as long as it steps on three clips, then it will definitely not be able to run away, after all, the chain is as thick as a girl's arm!
With a sigh of relief in his heart, he was about to turn around and leave, when his body suddenly froze, because he saw a group of piglets next to the wild boar that was caught by the clip, and there were five of them he could see, maybe the strength was even more.
Could it be that it was a female boar that was swaying?
Thinking of this, he walked forward another hundred meters, and carefully observed, the sow must be about 400 catties, and there are six piglets, and all six are about ten catties.
When he got closer, he saw that a pine tree about 20 centimeters in diameter by the ditch had been knocked down by a wild boar, and that the pine tree was one of the chains that had been chained......
He didn't dare to go down anymore, so he hurriedly climbed up the mountain road, then carried the girl on his back, walked to the ridge again, and told his grandfather about the situation.
Then, the girl handed it over to her grandfather, and he hurried down the mountain again, this time looking for his eldest aunt more, for the sake of the wild boar cubs.
Coming to the ravine again, the female wild boar has given up the struggle, and I don't know when it began, all four of its hooves were clamped, and it can be said that there is no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the ground.
The old man was already guarding the ridge of the ravine, and as soon as the people arrived, they immediately began to deal with the wild boars.
The piglets are wandering around in the ravine because of the sow, and it is their mother who is caught in the trap, so naturally they will not leave.
The boar was killed, and two men carried it, while the other two carried three boar cubs in their back pockets.
At this time, everyone was smiling, especially the old man, who had put him in his pocket for a long time and was reluctant to smoke the well-off cigarettes, and gave them to Guo Qu's uncle.
As for Changjiang, he doesn't smoke, just give him a meal later.
After carrying it home, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, and everyone was busy handling the pigs, and it was already five o'clock.
Then, in order to catch up with the time, there was no food, so the wild boar was moved to the street, and then within two hours, the wild boar meat was only five catties left.
The five catties are no longer willing to be sold, because they have to ask for help to eat.
After eating, Guo Qu had a disagreement with the old man.
The old man wanted to kill the wild boar cub together and sell it tomorrow, but Guo Qu didn't agree, after all, it was a piglet, only about ten catties, and he had not been in this world for a few days.
So the wild boar cub was bred in captivity, and one was given to his uncle's house, and five were fed to his own family.
Guo Qu has a plan in his heart, he has already calculated, these five wild boar cubs, male and female, will definitely be able to run the cubs when they grow up, and his family will feed wild boars in the future, and the wild boars alone should be able to barely make a living.
Of course, raising wild boars is a long process, and it is impossible to raise hundreds of them at once for the time being. Therefore, in this gap period, we must find another way.
He doesn't plan to clip the wild boar, after these two traps to the wild boar, they will definitely hide in the deep mountains and old forests, and if they want to catch it again, the probability is not ordinarily small.
Now the five wild boars are still small, but it doesn't cost too much manpower and material resources, that is to say, at present, as long as the old man alone can cope with it.
Every day, you only need a large back pocket of pigweed, and then mix some vegetable leaves, as for buying feed to feed, there is no such plan for the time being.
The girl seemed very happy today, because every time she went to the street, she would buy her some delicious things, and those things were held in her arms, and this was the happiest thing for her.
……
Four hundred and fifty pounds of wild boar, three dollars a pound, that is one thousand three hundred and fifty yuan!
Coupled with the remaining money some time ago, the remaining money in his hand now is more than 2,000 yuan.
It's a pity that the wild animals can't let him clip endlessly, because he found that the wild things are clamped, and the wild things have also learned well, just take this wild boar as an example, he spent more than a month looking for it, and finally caught it.
Of course, there are other reasons, the more wild things are clipped, the fewer they are, the harder they are to find, the harder they are to find, the harder they are to catch, and he can't waste his time going into the mountains every day to look for wild things.
After returning from rebirth, the wild thing that was caught has solved the problem of eating at home, so why bother to do this life-threatening thing?
Carrying a girl up the mountain every day, and then running around, this is making money with the safety of your life.
You must know that poisonous snakes and other poisonous substances appear in the pigsty at home every year, let alone in the mountains? He can be bitten by poisonous snakes on the road to the village, not to mention in the mountains with dense vegetation and wild animals!
In the past, I couldn't go because if I wanted to eat white rice at every meal, I had to find living expenses.
Now it's much better, and I sold a few badger pigs and wild boars, which is a temporary solution to the urgent need, so naturally I don't want to go into the mountains anymore, and I run all over the mountains.
Besides, every day he runs up the mountain with the girl, his face is tanned, and he feels distressed when he looks at it, how can he be willing to go again.
As for what he is going to do next, he already has a little eyebrows in his heart, and if he goes to the county tomorrow to investigate the situation, then he will be even more sure.
What he wants to do is to collect old books, iron, aluminum and other scraps, there are not many cars and the like nowadays, and there are only one or two in each town, and these scrap collectors still set up a stall on the street in a hurry, and then wait for those who sell scrap to come to the door.
He is different, he is going to investigate the situation first, and then buy a human-powered tricycle with a few hands in the county, and then ride the tricycle to collect waste every day.
In the countryside, if you want to live a good life, you have to pay labor, and now it is not as good as the future generations, and the future generations can rely on brain power. And now we can only look at physical strength, and mental power can only be used as a supporting factor.
