Chapter 180: Envy made my eyes red
Zhang Tiezhu called someone to help borrow a large wooden barrel, and after a while, the hot water was boiled, and Zhang Tiezhu began to kill the pig himself.
The wild boar seemed to feel its fate if it was to be slaughtered, and struggled with a whining cry, but it was seriously injured and tied up strongly, and a few men of five big and three thick pressed it, and it struggled to move.
Zhang Tiedao took a hunting knife and cut it on the neck of the wild boar, released the blood, and used a wooden basin to catch the pig's blood, and when the blood was almost released, the wild boar died early.
Only then did Zhang Tiezhu untie the rope and work with Zhang Dafu to put the wild boar in the large wooden barrel prepared in advance.
At this time, Li Hongxiang and Erdanniang brought out the freshly boiled hot water and poured it into a large wooden barrel.
The fur of wild boars is so scalded by boiling water that it is especially easy to remove hair.
Zhang Tiezhu shaved the pig hair hard, with an excited face.
Su Jinse and several children watched from afar, this was the first time Su Jinse had seen the killing of pigs, and he couldn't help but feel a little curious.
Liu Erdan said: "Sister Bao'er, killing pigs is not good-looking, it's too bloody, let's go out and play." ”
Su Jinse shook his head, "No, my mother said that she would sell pork later, and she had to help keep the accounts." ”
"Sister Bao'er, are you still settling accounts? That's amazing! Liu Erdan said in surprise.
Su Jinse hurriedly said: "I don't know how to settle accounts, my second brother went to invite Xu Langzhong, and Xu Langzhong will come to help keep the accounts later, and I will help study ink when the time comes!" ”
When the words fell, I saw Zhang Zhiqiang leading Xu Langzhong to come.
Zhang Zhiqiang entered the house and took out the scale, and brought a pen and paper to Xu Langzhong, "Grandpa Xu, I'm sorry for you." ”
Xu Langzhong said with a smile: "It's not troublesome, it's a matter of effort." ”
Here, Zhang Tiezhu shaved the pig's hair, and began to disembowel and peel the wild boar, take out the intestines, etc., and then divide the whole wild boar into two, and then start to weigh it.
Carried by two people, the whole wild boar weighed down to two hundred and ninety-six catties, forty catties more than the expected two hundred and five!
This made Zhang Tiezhu very happy, such a big wild fat pig, even if he kept half of it and sold half of it, he could sell it for a lot of money!
"I didn't expect Zhang Tiezhu to be lame, and he could hunt such a big wild boar, it's really amazing!"
Nearly 300 catties of pork, according to the normal meat price of 15 catties, almost 300 catties, that is 4,500 wen, which is equivalent to more than 4 taels of silver!
The man's eyes were red with envy.
"Zhang Tiezhu's leg is lame, how can he hunt prey, he dug a lot of traps in the mountains, and this wild boar fell into the trap he dug by himself, half dead."
"Zhang Tiezhu's family is so lucky!"
"Yes! It's strange to say, didn't Zhang Tiezhu dig traps in the mountains before? All year round, I don't see anything in the trap, just this year, no, just in the past few months, he can often pick up prey in the trap of his house! ”
"Oh my God! That's good luck! I'll go up the hill and dig a few traps! ”
Everyone talked about it.
Zhang Youqian's daughter-in-law was also at the scene, looking at Zhang Tiezhu hunting a wild boar with so much money, her eyes were red with envy, her family beat beans and ground beans and finally made tofu, and only earned more than 300 yuan a month, but Zhang Tiezhu's family had more than four taels of silver for a wild boar!
Especially when she heard that Zhang Tiezhu dug a trap and hunted a wild boar, she didn't contribute at all, and she was even more jealous in her heart.
