Chapter 191: The Choice of Team Members
After Xue Langjing came back with the team, everyone in the Xue family told her about Wen'an.
Because Zheng Linchu was the middleman, and the other party's background was determined, and the suspicious things on the other party were explained, she naturally no longer doubted Wen An's identity.
Especially when her past was very similar to what Liu Shanfu and the others said about Shangguan Yueran, everyone believed it even more, they never thought in the past, it turned out that this sentence would be so realistic.
And letting Wen An stay is also of great benefit to the Xue family.
The teacher who is so brilliant in writing doesn't ask for much salary, it's just like picking it up for nothing.
At least my family doesn't have to worry about literature.
And Xue Langjing herself, in terms of martial arts, especially in the way of the sword, has someone to guide her, so she doesn't have to explore it herself, and she doesn't have to worry about it.
Naturally, everyone is happy.
In the end, of course, it was unanimously decided to hire Wen An.
In this way, Wen An became the teacher of the Xue family.
As for her identity, everyone also consciously kept it secret, and only claimed to be Mr. Jiao Xi invited by the Xue family.
Fortunately, at that time, Xue Langjing thought that this person would continue to live as a man, so he specially asked Old Man Liu to keep it secret, and when he carried her back, it was dark and winter on the road, and no one else saw it.
In the past few days of her cultivation, she has either been lying in bed or walking around the yard, except for the cook and the students, basically no outsiders know about her existence.
For them, the Xue family also has another set of sayings, Wen An is a friend of Zheng Linchu, because she was seriously injured and temporarily recuperated in the Xue family, she had nothing to do, so she temporarily became the teacher of the Xue family.
One more person in the family does not have much impact on the Xue family, after all, the hunting team also accepts people from time to time, and they have long been used to it.
As the hunting team grows stronger and stronger, and the individual strength of the team members is gradually improving, the overall strength of the hunting team is also improving.
The strength has increased greatly, and it is natural to be able to break deeper in the wild forest.
Nowadays, the chance of encountering wild beasts has also increased greatly, and they basically don't look at small prey such as pheasants and ducks in the outermost areas.
These small animals, not to mention the lack of catties, the meat quality is not valuable, and they can't exchange a few dollars for a few dollars when they hunt one, and they will encounter wild boars, roe deer, roe deer and other larger prey, and they will be slightly rarer.
In the harvest of the hunting team, the proportion of low-level beasts gradually increased, and from time to time one or two medium-sized beasts were encountered.
The meat of medium beasts is extremely valuable, ranging from seventy or eighty wen per catty to one or two hundred wen per catty, and it is said that there are even more expensive ones with a few hundred wen per catty, which they have not encountered yet.
Not only beast meat, but also other things like essence blood, fur, claws, sharp teeth, etc., almost all of them are treasures, and one is worth one or twenty taels of silver.
Of course, value is worth money, correspondingly, the strength of this thing will not be weak, and it is extremely difficult to hunt.
Fortunately, although they are strong, they rarely appear in groups, and just one or two, no matter how strong they are, they can't stand the large number of hunters, and in the end they naturally become the prey of everyone.
The same is true for herbs, fruits and vegetables, where they tend to be more valuable, or those that are abundant enough to find a piece at a glance.
Otherwise, if you have the time to toss one or two, you might as well go hunting or find something else.
The deeper you go into the wild forest, the more abundant the resources of herbs, fruits and vegetables and prey.
In the eyes of Xue Langjing and others, it was silver everywhere.
It's just that they have limited time to hunt every day, and the weight on their bodies is also limited, so they can only find valuable 'pick-up'.
With the increase of the daily harvest, Xue Langjing finally knew why some powerful hunters could earn hundreds of taels of silver per month, which was really too rich in the resources of this wild forest.
Of course, whether or not you can access these rich resources depends on your personal ability.
On this day, everyone was chasing a medium-sized beast spirit pattern leopard, and they came to a fruit forest during the chase.
At the beginning, the people who focused on this Spirit Pattern Leopard didn't pay much attention to it, after all, it was common to encounter fruit forests now.
It wasn't until it was killed that the variety of the grove was noticed.
It turned out to be another hickory tree.
And this orchard is much larger than the pecan grove last time, at least twice as much.
In the past, the team members would have been ecstatic to encounter such a large orchard, after all, it was a large amount of income for the hunting team.
But now, the hunting team has more harvest every day, and it can get fifty or sixty taels of silver a day.
The time spent hunting is spent picking pecans, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Although these pecans are expensive, they are extremely troublesome to handle, and apart from the cost of investment and the time spent, the daily harvest is almost the same as hunting.
Although for Xue Langjing, letting the villagers deal with so many pecans can harvest some favors, it will bring great danger to the team members, and it seems not very cost-effective to pick them again.
Therefore, the newly discovered fruit forest is a pity for them to abandon it.
Since it's dangerous and not cost-effective, don't do it at all.
Originally, Xue Langjing thought so.
After all, as the captain, she has to consider the safety of the team.
It's just that after she went back, a team member approached her that night to put forward her ideas.
And not just one, but more than a dozen.
Apparently the crowd had discussed it before they came to her.
The idea of the team members is that the Absolute Hunting Team can still shoot fruit like last time.
If they only pick the fruit, their harvest will not improve much, and there is still a danger.
But this so-called danger is not a gain for them.
The reason why they felt that it was not cost-effective to pick this batch of fruits was because the sound of beating the fruits was too loud to attract wild beasts, which would pose a threat to their safety.
But this beast is also their harvest.
If you add the fruit and the harvest of the hunt, it is definitely more cost-effective than usual.
You must know that you have to find your own prey in your usual hunting, and whether you can find it or not depends on luck.
And as long as they hunt the fruit, the prey can be delivered to the door in a steady stream, not afraid of not having enough harvest.
Last time, they mainly hunted the fruit, and the killing of the prey was incidental, so it was natural to hope that the fewer beasts that came, the better, so that they could finish the fruit as soon as possible and retreat safely.
This time, they could have reversed the situation and used the fruit as bait to catch the prey.
Wouldn't it be better to retreat in time when you have enough prey or feel that it is not safe enough, so as to ensure the harvest of the day and have the extra income of pecans?
Moreover, the time and effort to find the prey to get a higher harvest than the prey itself keeps sending to the door.
Even if there is no income from the fruit, the daily harvest of the prey that is 'caught' will not be less than usual.
It doesn't seem to be a loss.
As for how to keep everyone safe, this can be done with a detailed plan in advance.
Although it was dangerous last time, didn't everyone retreat in the end?
Moreover, the team members also hit Wen An, the teacher of Mr. Xi.
She can resist several of them alone, and her command ability is even better.
With such a ready-made help, it would be too wasteful if you don't make good use of it.
It's better to invite her over to suppress the hunting team, thinking that their safety can be improved a lot.
Wen An's usual salary is not high, although he wears many hats, he only symbolically receives two taels of silver from the Xue family every month.
