Li An looked at the blind bear who fell in the snow, frowned, this time the hunt was a long-distance attack, in order to facilitate the prey to bring back, Li An chose to catch the roe deer and red deer alive, but now, more than 500 pounds of bear blind fell in the snow, how to bring it back has really become a problem.

"Big brother, we have so much prey, this blind bear is still here!"

"That's right! Big brother, the village is still thirty miles away, and it seems that I can only give up this blind bear. ”

Ang Lee waved his hand, clenched his fist to the tip of his nose and continued to ponder.

"Feiyu, or we take turns carrying the bear blind."

"Second brother, you are crazy, more than five hundred pounds, how far can you carry it."

"Then it's better to tie the blind bear to the back of the red deer and let the red deer carry it."

"The red deer must be tired to death, and it will be even more troublesome when the time comes."

Li An smiled slightly: "Kunxiong, Feiyu, you go to cut down the tree immediately, you can cut more if your arms are thick." ”

"Yes, big brother."

Soon, Ang Lee used the trunks to build two wooden shelves, which were attached to a pair of skis, thus making two sets of sleds.

"Big brother, what is this?"

"This is a sled, quickly carry the blind bear up."

Soon, the blind bear and the fox, sable, flower-tailed stick chicken, hare, wild boar and other prey were all fixed to one of the sleighs, and then, Ang Lee attached a red deer to this sleigh with a rope, and the other red deer naturally attached to the other sleigh.

"Big brother, is this okay?"

"I believe in the eldest brother, Feiyu, you are responsible for controlling this red deer, Kunxiong, and the six roe deer will all be handed over to you."

"Yes, big brother."

Li An smiled at the corner of his mouth, looked at the young shoots who were picking hazelnuts next to him, and said, "Young sprouts, we are going home." ”

"Here we are, big brother." The sprouts jumped and ran over.

"Young sprouts, sit tight." Ang Lee said as he slapped the red deer's ass with a twig.

Since red deer are wild animals, they are not very cooperative, but since Li An can capture them alive, he naturally has enough ability to make them obedient.

At this time, Li Kunxiong led six roe deer to open the way in front, Li Feiyu controlled the sleigh loaded with prey to walk in the middle, and Li An and Young Ya'er walked leisurely at the end.

"Big brother, you're amazing."

Tender Ya'er looked at Li An, who was calmly controlling the red deer beside her, and her eyes were full of admiration and admiration.

"Young sprouts, you can too, or else, the eldest brother will teach you."

"yes, yes!"

"Come, take the rope in your left hand and the branch in your right hand, yes, that's it, pull the rope and hit the beast's ass."

Li Ang taught the young sprouts to control the red deer hand in hand.

"Big brother, Ya'er can really do it!"

The young sprouts seemed very happy, and drove the red deer to their heart's content, and after a long time, she found herself completely lying in Ang Lee's arms, and Ang Lee was looking at her with a smile and a rather strange expression.

"Big Brother......

"Well, where is the eldest brother?"

Nguya frowned slightly: "Big brother is different from before, it's become so strange." ”

"Oh, has that big brother changed for the better or for the worse?"

"Big brother has gone a little bad...... "Young Sprout pouted, hesitated for a moment, and said: "However, the eldest brother is not like before, he only cares about martial arts, and he doesn't care about anything else, but he has changed for the better." ”

Li An smiled indifferently and asked softly, "Does the young sprout like the eldest brother who only cared about practicing martial arts before, or the eldest brother who has become a little bad now?" ”

"Tell me! Which big brother is better. ”

The young sprout buried the head of the mantis in her chest, and said in a mosquito voice: "The sprout thinks it's better to be the big brother now." After speaking, there was a trace of blood on his neck.

"Haha! The eldest brother knows that the young sprouts like the big brother who has become a little bad. Li An was quite proud, took the opportunity to hug the young sprouts in his arms tightly, and kissed them.

"Big brother."

"Young sprouts, when you are twenty-eight years old, marry the eldest brother and be the eldest brother's wife, okay?" Li An stroked the face of the young sprouts and asked boldly.

Wife is the standard title of wives in later generations, but few people know that this word comes from the Tang Dynasty, from a scholar named Mai Aixin, since then, the husband and wife have been widely spread among the Tang people.

"Big brother, I'm ......"

Li An was too direct, too sudden, the sprouts were too small, completely unprepared, and trembling slightly, like a frightened deer.

"I'm sorry, big brother is abrupt, come, sit down."

Li An was afraid of scaring the young sprouts, so he hurriedly let go of his hands and scolded himself in his heart, okay, why did he suddenly say these words! How long are the days? There will be opportunities in the future.

"Big brother, Ya'er is willing...... Be a big brother...... Wife. The young sprout took the initiative to hold Ang Lee's waist and lay gently in Ang Lee's arms, obedient like a kitten.

No way! That's it! Li An looked extremely excited, and hurriedly hugged the young sprouts, and said in his ear: "Tender sprouts, don't worry, the eldest brother will definitely let you live a good life, and you will have meat to eat in the future." ”

"Big brother, Ya'er doesn't care about anything, as long as Ya'er is the eldest brother, with the eldest brother here, Ya'er is not afraid of anything." The young sprouts closed their eyes and muttered under their breath.

Li An's head throbbed, and he hugged the young sprouts in his arms tighter.

After returning to White Wolf Village, Li An picked out two roe deer and sent away the two 'dog slaves' who blocked the door and demanded debts, so far, Li An no longer owes any foreign debts.

In the days that followed, Ang Lee's family continued to hunt in the mountains, and in order to facilitate the transportation of prey, Ang Lee rebuilt a more advanced sled, which was large and comfortable, and was towed by two red deer.

Ang Lee and Sprout sit on the sleigh and take turns driving the red deer, while Kunxiong and Feiyu still ski forward, and if they encounter cunning prey, Ang Lee will also put on skis and go to cooperate, and let Sprout take care of the sled.

The ecology in the depths of White Wolf Mountain is relatively good, and every hunting has a very good harvest, and the vigilant Li An has found a burly figure in the distance many times, obviously Li Fei Shouyu.

After gradually getting acquainted, Li Fei Shouyu no longer concealed his envy for Ang Lee and others for their proficiency in handling skis, and talked about the difficulties he encountered in the process of making and using skis.

Ang Lee had already regarded Li Fei Shouyu as a friend, so he unreservedly told Li Fei Shouyu how to make skis and snowboards and the skills of skiing.

And Li Fei Shouyu also told Li An and others about his experience in practicing archery, so that Li An and the three of them made a big breakthrough in archery.

After ten days of continuous hunting, Ang Lee's home has piled up a large amount of prey, although the meat of the prey will not rot in the cold winter, but Ang Lee is eager to improve the current living conditions, and add some necessary furniture, and this naturally requires a lot of money, in order to obtain money, the meat and fur of the prey must be sold.

"Big brother, you're all ready to go."

"Okay, let's go."

Li An held the young buds, sat on the sled, and drove the red deer to Liucheng County, thirty miles downstream of the white wolf water, with Kunxiong and Feiyu skiing leading the way in front.

To say that this Liucheng County is a small county seat, with a population of only a few thousand, and there are only three squares in the city, the north, east and west, separated by a T-shaped street.

But this is the seat of Yingzhou, and all kinds of institutions are very complete, and almost all of the entire Beifang is occupied by the major yamen, and the rest are the mansions of the powerful.

Dongfang is a slum and seems very deserted, while Xifang is a commercial center with some popularity, and there are even three or five green buildings located here.

Li An and his entourage were going to enter Xifang in Liucheng County and sell the furs and meat obtained from hunting in exchange for money.

"Big brother, one mile ahead is the county seat, will we just enter the city like this?"

"No, find a place to hide the sleigh first, and we'll go into town on foot with our prey on our backs."

Ang Lee knew that the streets of the city were free of snow, and that their sleigh cars were too thunderous and would cause unnecessary trouble.

The streets of Xifang in Liucheng County are very lively, in addition to the shops along the street, there are many small vendors operating on the street, which looks quite prosperous.

"Feiyu, young sprouts, you sell hazelnuts and meat here, Kunxiong, bring the furs, and we'll go find the animal skin shop."

Li An knew that the meat of hazelnuts and all kinds of prey was relatively cheap and easy to sell, while the price of animal skins was relatively high, and it should be difficult to sell them in street stalls, so it was better to take the initiative and sell animal skins to wealthy animal skin shops.

"Big brother, the Wang family's animal skin shop."

"Go in and have a look."

Ang Lee nodded and strode in.

The Wangjia animal skin shop in front of me looked quite formal, the area of the shop was relatively large, in addition to the shopkeeper and four or five doctors of the store, there were also five or six customers who selected animal skins.

"It's all good skins, how about it?" Li Kunxiong said, removing the fur from his back.

The shopkeeper glanced lazily, then looked stunned, and reached out to rummage through the pile of hides.

From the shopkeeper's glowing eyes, Li An could completely judge that the animal skins he took out were valuable and high-quality goods, especially the two smooth Xuanhu skins, which attracted the shopkeeper's special attention.

"Hehe, two young men, these animal skins are really good, our store is willing to buy, one skin is consistent, thirty skins and thirty runs, what do you think?" The shopkeeper was smiling all over his face and seemed very enthusiastic.

From the moment Ang Lee and the others entered the shop, the shrewd shopkeeper found that they were fledgling boys, and when Li Kunxiong piled different furs on the counter, the shopkeeper was even more sure of his judgment, and for this reason, he was quite surprised and pushed the price extremely low.

Li An smiled at the corner of his mouth, stared at the shopkeeper's eyes, waved his hand and said, "It's only thirty times, isn't it too little." ”

The shopkeeper smiled even sweeter, and said busily: "It's not easy for Shaolang to go into the mountains to hunt, if you don't add five or thirty-five times, you can't do more." ”

"It's still too little." Li An knew in his heart that these hides were definitely more than these prices.

"Forty runs, it can't be more, if it is not sold, Shaolang will take it." The shopkeeper held up four fingers and was extremely resolute.

"Such a good Xuanhu skin, if it is in the capital, a piece can be sold for a hundred guan, and a sable skin can also be sold for dozens of guan, Shaolang might as well sell these furs to Zaixia, and he is willing to sell five hundred guan."

A middle-aged customer touched the fox skin and looked at Ang Lee.
