Chapter 4 Digging Pits to Raise Wild Boars
The onlookers and discussions of the villagers made the men who carried the wild boar also hold their heads high, as if the wild boar also had their share. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Under the envious eyes of the villagers, the wild boar carried into Zhang Wolf's house, put down the wooden stick on his shoulder, and the men who had just raised their heads and chests began to pant and scoop water around the water tank to drink.
The smallest of these wild boars is more than 200 catties, and most of them are more than 300 catties, carrying two or three hundred catties of wild boars to walk several miles of mountain roads, even if these crop men who are used to doing farm work, they are also a little unbearable.
But soon the joy of the harvest diluted the physical exhaustion.
After drinking the water, they surrounded Zhang Wolf's father one by one and asked what to do with these wild boars.
Father Zhang hadn't woken up from the shock yet, and was staring there in a daze.
"Uncles, brothers, and others, tonight I will set up wine at home, and invite the whole village to drink wine and eat meat, and the wine and meat are enough. Zhang Wolf hurriedly stepped forward and said to everyone.
"Okay! ”
"Great! Uncle Wolf is exquisite. ”
Even if the mountain village is close to the mountain, everyone is rarely willing to eat meat, and in addition to keeping some game for the New Year, the rest are sold for salt, kerosene, and clothes for children.
Hearing that there was enough wine and meat, these crop men opened their mouths one by one with laughter.
"Wolf cub, we can't eat so much!" The fourth master listened to Zhang Wolf's words, looked at the wild boars piled up on the ground, and felt a little distressed for him.
My brother's family is too difficult, and if these wild boars are exchanged for food, they will be enough to eat for a year.
"Pick up the three heads first, put the rest in the cellar, and deal with it tomorrow!" Zhang Wolf thought for a while and said.
"Too much, I can't eat it!" The fourth master was even more distressed when he heard it, and hurriedly said.
Three big fat wild boars, almost a thousand catties, the entire Xilongzhuang is only more than 500 people, that eat so much.
"It's okay for the four masters, I can't eat a point, thanks to everyone's help over the years!"
"Alas!" the fourth master sighed, and it was not good to say anything in front of the big guy. Began to beckon everyone to help clean up the wild boars.
"Uncle Wolf, what to do with this live wild boar?" The eldest grandson of the second master's family next to him saw that Zhang Wolf and the fourth master had finished talking, and then asked.
Zhang Wolf was also a little worried for a while, such a big wild boar, it must not work in the pigsty, the current pigsty is all adobe walls, and it will not take a day to be broken.
Zhang Wolf was worried about how to place the wild boar king, and the eldest brother of the uncle's family began to clean up the three wild boars to prepare for the evening banquet, while Zhang's father and the fourth master commanded everyone to move the excess wild boars to the cellar.
Seeing the cellar, Zhang Wolf's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly called the eldest grandson of the second uncle's family over, "Xiaolinzi, is there still a big pit in the east of Zhuangtou?"
"Yes, but the village has long stopped taking soil from there, and the fourth master said some time ago that he wanted to fill it in!" Xiao Linzi didn't know what the use of Zhang Wolf asking the big pit was, or answered honestly.
The big pit that Zhang Wolf said refers to the east end of Zhuang near the foot of the mountain, which is a big pit left by building a house in the village to take soil, the area of the big pit is four or five hundred square meters, seven or eight meters deep, and it is very steep on all sides, leaving only a slope of five meters wide up and down on the west side.
As long as the slope is dug up, it can be used as a pigsty, and the big pit seven or eight meters deep does not have to worry about the wild boar king running away.
The more I think about it, the more feasible it becomes.
"Great, let's go, come with me. Zhang Wolf greeted, turned around and ran out.
Xiao Linzi followed Zhang Wolf to Zhuangdong Dakeng in a daze.
Standing on the edge of the big pit, Zhang Wolf pointed to the big pit, "Find someone to dig this slope, this big pit is a natural pigsty." ”
Xiao Linzi was a little confused, and looked at Zhang Wolf for some reason.
"Questions?"
"Uncle Wolf, do you really want to raise wild boars?"
"Yes!"
"Raising wild boars in this Kada?"
"Yes!"
"What are you raising it for?"
"Be a breeding pig!"
Zhang Wolf replied simply, Xiao Linzi was a little blind, "Uncle Wolf, it's easy to put this sow down, but how can you get it up again?"
"Simple, look!" Zhang Wolf found a branch and scratched it on the ground, and explained to Xiao Linzi, "Dig another pit next to the big pit, it doesn't need to be too big, just have a little bit of land." ”
"Then add a door between the big pit and the small pit, when you need to breed, put the sow in the small pit, open the door and put the king boar in, and then drive the king boar into the big pit after breeding, and get the sow up. ”
Xiao Linzi didn't know if what Zhang Wolf said was right, and he always felt that it was a little unreliable.
Out of the habit he had cultivated since childhood, Xiao Linzi still nodded and said, "I'll call someone!" and turned around and ran towards Zhuangzi.
It didn't take long for Xiao Linzi and Xiao He to run over with more than a dozen young people carrying shovels and pickaxes.
"Big brother!"
"Uncle Wolf!"
"Lord Wolf!"
More than a dozen young people greeted Zhang Wolf in a mess.
These people are all about the same age as Zhang Wolf, and they all played with Zhang Wolf's ass when they were young.
"What did the big brother do?"
"How is Uncle Wolf going to dig?" After greeting, everyone hurriedly began to start working.
"Don't worry, go and get the boar king first, and then dig it up. ”
…………
Put the wild boar king in the big pit, Zhang Wolf took a dozen young people to do it in full swing.
They all grew up in the crops, and the work of digging the soil is not called work at all, and the excavated soil does not need to be transported out, just thrown into the pit. In less than an hour, the slope was dug up.
After everyone climbed to the top of the pit along the rope that had been prepared long ago, Zhang Wolf cautiously walked to the side of the boar king and untied the rattan tied to the four hooves.
As soon as the rattan was untied, the boar king got up from the ground with a flutter, shook his body, howled, and lowered his head and crashed into Zhang Wolf.
The boar king held a grudge, and he recognized Zhang Wolf, who blinded one of its eyes and tied it up for a long time.
For the rebellion of the wild boar king, Zhang Wolf knew in his heart that the danger of the wild boar king who had lost his fangs was greatly reduced, and he could not threaten Zhang Wolf at all.
Gently dodge sideways, turn around and run a few steps, grab the rope, step on the pit wall, and climb up.
This kind of thing couldn't be simpler for Zhang Wolf, who has been training in the army for five years.
"Rub!" climbed up in a few clicks.
Seeing Zhang Wolf climb up, the people on the top of the pit who were carrying their hearts breathed a sigh of relief.
"Big brother!"
"Uncle Wolf!"
Looking back at the wild boar king who was spinning around at the bottom of the pit, Zhang Wolf smiled with satisfaction, this wild boar king is the starting point of his life and career.
"Okay, leave it alone, let's go, let's go back to drinking wine and eating meat first. Zhang Wolf beckoned everyone back to the village.
"Let's go!"
"Drink wine and eat meat!"
As soon as he talked about drinking wine and eating meat, Xiao Linzi felt that he was about to flow out.
said hello and ran to the Zhuangzi first, and Xiaohe and the others in the back also ran to the Zhuangzi with strange screams.
