The river beach is very lively, the whole village is there, all gathered together, just like the rural New Year in later generations to watch the pig killing, the noisy sound resounded throughout the small mountain village.

Almost an hour later, the wild boar was slaughtered, packed and packed up, and placed neatly on the river beach.

"Okay, now start to divide the meat, the distribution of each family has just said Xiao Xu, there will be no more and no less, what kind of meat you need to pick by yourself, don't squeeze, every family has a ......"

After Uncle Ma finished speaking, people came forward from house to house, and several men began to divide the meat according to the population and requirements of each family.

Chen Xu stood by and watched, and soon he found that almost everyone chose the fattest meat and lard, lean pork leg ribs and pork ribs were not wanted at all, and the people who divided the meat were also very fair, and the fat meat would be more or less matched with some lean meat at the same time, so as not to divide all the fat meat in front of the person!

There are only 17 households in the whole village, and the total population of men, women, and children is less than 80 people, and the average person is only 70 or 80 catties of meat per catty, and this catty is only half a catty of the market, and the net weight of the meat after the whole wild boar is skinned, entrailed, and head and feet is at least close to 150 kilograms, and the distribution is not even a quarter.

Soon, every family received several pieces of meat of various sizes and carried them in their hands with straw ropes, and adults and children were smiling.

However, Chen Xu felt that it seemed that there were still too few points.

The main thing is that the whole village looks like the clothes are in tatters, like a flower child, and none of them look clean and tidy.

Everyone is emaciated and discolored, and the men are better, especially the women and children, all of whom are malnourished.

But after thinking about it for a while, Chen Xu still gave up the plan of dividing a few more catties of meat into each family.

Poverty does not change because he has a few extra pounds of meat, and if he wants to change this poverty, he must find a way to change it elsewhere.

And the next thing to go to the town to sell meat, maybe you can see if there is any way to get rich, since ancient times, business is the fastest way to make a fortune!

After dividing the meat, the people on the river beach began to disperse and go home one after another.

Some families with stronger labor ability changed three catties and five catties of meat, but in the end there were more than 100 kilograms left, as for the pig offal, etc., after cleaning each family, each family will also share more, Chen Xu specially told himself to leave a few catties of large intestines, and then he and Uncle Ma and seven or eight young adults picked up the pork and lifted the big snake to go home first.

Xing'er, who came back with her, jumped and screamed excitedly, shouting that she wanted to leave the fattest and fattest meat, and when the meat was divided on the river beach, several men also intentionally or unintentionally left a few large pieces of the fattest meat for Chen Xu.

And Chen Jiang watched his son select a large piece of fat and put it in the rattan basket, he was both excited and afraid, and kept secretly wiping his tears.

She and Xing'er weeded the wheat field on the river beach, but Niu Dashishang ran over breathlessly and told her that when Chen Xu killed a large wild boar with a thousand catties and a big snake seven or eight feet long on the mountain, Chen Jiang was not happy at the time, but almost fainted directly in front of him!

When he and she hurriedly left their daughter and ran to the foot of the mountain, the people gathered added fuel and vinegar to describe the situation they saw on the mountain, a few and a half children had just come down from the mountain, and the wild boar had become tens of thousands of catties in their mouths, and the big snake had become more than ten zhang.

Waiting at the bottom of the mountain for more than half an hour, when she saw the wild boar and the big snake carried down the mountain, and saw Chen Xu who was safe and sound, Chen Jiang's heart was put down, and she fell to the ground like a prostration and was helped back to her home, and even the lively pig killing and pork on the river beach She didn't take a look, and she was afraid or scared, for fear that her son would accidentally have an accident, then the family would be completely ruined.

"Mother, these meats will be left at home, and the fat ones will be boiled into oil and stored, and the lean meat and pork ribs will be salted and eaten slowly when I bring some salt from the market town."

After Chen Xu finished speaking, he took out the big pig's head and stuffed it into the arms of Niu Dashi, who had been excited and excited to follow him like eating, "Dashi, this pig's head will be given to you!" ”

"What? True...... It's true? Niu Dashi was almost fainted by this sudden happiness, and he couldn't say anything while hugging the pig's head.

Chen Xu nodded in affirmation, Niu Dashi rolled his eyes and leaned against the apricot tree and gasped.

A pig's head is not to say that there are dozens of catties, even if it is worthless, there is absolutely no problem with the money that can sell two or three stones of grain in the market town, for the poor family, it is definitely a big fortune, not to mention that the pickled meat dishes can be eaten at home for more than half a year.

"Asahi ...... Brother Xu, why are you so good to me? ”

"What are we two polite, be kind to my sister in the future!" Chen Xu said with a smile.

The wild boar is extremely stupid, and the pig's head is not delicious and difficult to get, Chen Xu thinks that the IQ of a person like Niu Dashi, who cooks a whole frog, is a good match.

"Don't worry, I will treat Sister Xing'er well, and I will definitely make you an uncle in the first year of marrying me!" Niu Dashi nodded excitedly.

Chen Xu glanced at the knife placed in the meat basket, sighed in his heart and held back.

It's very tiring to talk to this kind of person with too little brain capacity, and it's unlucky to kill my sister and be widowed before she gets married.

The market town is about twenty miles from the village.

(Note: During the Qin and Han dynasties, one foot was almost 23 centimeters in later generations, six feet was one step, and three hundred steps were one mile, and one mile was 415 meters, and one mile in later generations was 500 meters, so the difference between the two was not big.) ）

A group of people carried wild boar meat on their backs and carried a big snake on the winding mountain path.

At this time, it is almost noon, the sun is shining, the sky is high and the earth is wide, the green trees are verdant, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, the world is quiet and harmonious, if it is placed in the future generations, it is definitely a wonderful time to go out to travel and fight the wilderness.

But for Chen Xu's group, they had to speed up and rush to the market town.

The temperature is already very high in this weather, and fresh meat is not durable to be stored for a long time, and it will spoil and taste after a long time.

In this era, the huge land of China has only one or two million people, and most of them are concentrated in large cities and plains, and the number of people in the mountainous areas is small and scattered, all kinds of wild beasts are rampant, jackals, tigers and leopards and other large beasts are everywhere, and one or two people do not dare to go far at all.

Fortunately, after climbing a mountain and following a river out of a valley, it took a group of people nearly two hours to reach the market town safely.
