Wang Mingyuan led the white elephant and wandered around at the entrance of the sinkhole until Zhang Shouzhong and the others returned.

During this time, under the guidance of Kang Langxiang, most of the people in Zhangjiaao have been familiar with the growth environment, drug parts and years of various medicinal materials, and they have become more and more experienced in digging, and they have also harvested more and more.

Everybody works hard.

Not to mention anything else, Wang Mingyuan alone said that the money from the sale of the harvested herbs would be distributed to everyone, which was enough for them to work hard.

When they came back, including Kang Langxiang and Zhang Shouzhong, they were all dirty, but their sweaty faces were full of smiles, and everyone was carrying a large bundle of herbs, obviously tired, but they were still talking and laughing.

When they passed by Wang Mingyuan, they all greeted him with a smile.

"Third uncle, wait, I have something to tell you."

Wang Mingyuan left Zhang Shouzhong, who also carried two large bundles of herbs with a wooden stick.

Zhang Shouzhong put down the burden on his shoulders, lifted the corner of his clothes, and wiped the sweat on his forehead: "What do you want to say?" ”

Wang Mingyuan sat down at the foot of a big tree, and Zhang Shouzhong also followed, taking out the cigarette pouch and rolling cigarettes he carried with him.

"People came to Mingcheng Zoo today, and now they are on the farm, and they came to buy white elephants, but I refused. However, I think it's more interesting to ask them to catch live animals and sell them to zoos. Living is definitely worth more than dead, and everyone can earn more. ”

Wang Mingyuan said seriously: "I'm thinking, you are all veterans of hunting, if you can do this, it depends on whether there is a way to catch these animals alive?" ”

Zhang Shouzhong thought for a while and said, "Then we have to see what is needed in the zoo." The method is what people think, as long as the method is right, it can always be obtained. It's just that it is much more difficult and dangerous to catch alive than to kill directly, and this price is ......."

Zhang Shouzhong cast a look, and Wang Mingyuan immediately understood, it was nothing more than that the price had to be higher.

"Then let's go back and add it up." Wang Mingyuan nodded.

In fact, Wang Mingyuan has had this idea for a long time.

He once let ladybugs go in his personal space, and when he was sure that the insects could survive, he thought about bringing the rare animals of this world to 2023.

In this era, especially in such primeval forests, there are still many animals that have been declared extinct in later generations.

This is an opportunity.

In this era of no prohibition of guns and hunting, and even encouragement of hunting, it will not be many years before many animals will die out or become very rare.

It is better to let them die out, and it is better to bring them back to 2023, and let the world where they have lived for more than twenty years become colorful because of the increase in these animals.

But when it comes to doing it, it feels troublesome.

It's okay to bring it to 2023, just release it directly into the mountains. But in 1980, Wang Mingyuan needed to start from scratch.

After all, he really lacks hunting experience, and if he wants to catch him alive, it will be even more difficult without help.

There's no way to hide this!

Now, someone from the zoo has come in, and that's a good excuse.

Things may be a little thankless, but Wang Mingyuan still wants to do it, and it can be regarded as doing his best to make the world better.

Wang Mingyuan took the baby elephant and returned to the sinkhole with Zhang Shouzhong, who was carrying the medicinal materials.

Three visitors to the zoo sat and rested on a tree stump by the hot spring.

After he handed over the baby elephant to Kang Moxiang and took it away, he called Zhang Shouzhong and greeted the three of them.

"This is my third uncle, named Zhang Shouzhong, a veteran, and the most experienced hunter in hunting, and a few more are patrolling the border, and they can't come back for the time being."

Wang Mingyuan and Zhang Shouzhong also chose the stump to sit down: "If you want to catch animals alive, this matter is not a big problem for Uncle Zhang, the key depends on your needs, and the price you can give, after all, hunting and catching alive are completely different things, more difficult and more dangerous." ”

He got straight to the point.

In this kind of thing, there is no need to beat around the bush.

If you talk about it properly, you can talk about it, and if you don't talk about it, forget it.

He could have bought the rare animals he caught under the guise of another zoo, and it was not impossible to make up an excuse.

"The price is easy to say!"

Huang Weijun said very happily, and then he looked at Li Limin: "Lao Li, show me the list of rare animals you investigated." ”

He wanted to borrow this list and directly set the animals that needed to be caught.

For zoos, the rarer the animal, the more attractive it is, and it is not wrong to locate it on this list of rare animals.

Li Limin opened the leather bag he was carrying, took out a notebook from it and handed it to Huang Weijun.

The notebook is scribbled with pens, densely packed with records, and is accompanied by pictures of various animals.

Wang Mingyuan guessed that those records were about the introduction of those animals and the various data collected.

Huang Weijun looked at it for a while, and quickly replied: "Elephants must be caught, as well as green peacocks, clouded leopards, golden leopards, Bengal tigers, bears, guinea deer, bison, takin...... Let's get these things for now. ”

After a pause, he continued: "I see that there are several green peacocks on the farm, Wang Changchang, since you are not willing to sell the white elephant to our zoo, those green peacocks should always be okay, right?" ”

These green peacocks were hatched from the peacock eggs that Zhang Guanghua took out of a little child.

If he let go of the little one, he'll probably get more.

For Wang Mingyuan, things are very simple.

He immediately agreed, "No problem...... It's just that the price ......."

"These green peacocks, I looked at them before, they are all half-sized birds, there are thirteen of them, and I will give you the price of fifteen yuan each. As for the others, such as elephants, clouded leopards, Bengal tigers, and the most difficult to catch, I will give you eight hundred of them, preferably in pairs. Huang Weijun weighed it and said.

"Green peacocks can be sold to you, but elephants, Bengal tigers, leopards, etc., eight hundred yuan, I'm afraid it's a little less." Wang Mingyuan shook his head and smiled: "It's not very sincere for you to do this. ”

Just kidding, elephants, Bengal tigers, leopards, these things, are they so easy to catch?

Elephants are okay, but Bengal tigers and leopards are existences that can kill people at every turn.

Moreover, just talking about a tiger, even if it is a dead thing, a single tiger bone costs more than 400 yuan, plus skin and flesh. Tiger whips and the like can be sold for almost seven or eight hundred.

As for the elephant, they could drive the white elephant for a price of 2,000 before, although the white elephant is rare, but it is not to say that the ordinary elephant is not valuable.

What's more, if you want to catch these animals, you must mobilize a lot of manpower and material resources, and the risk is so high.

Wang Mingyuan wants to make this money, but he will definitely not take the lives of so many people under his hands.

"And how much do you want?" Huang Weijun asked.

"Bears, guinea deer, bison, and takin are at least 1,000, and elephants, clouded leopards, and leopards are at least 2,000.

Wang Mingyuan said unceremoniously.

"Two thousand...... You think the money is a blank slate, and you can just make a bunch of it? ”

The price offered by Wang Mingyuan startled Deng Qinglai: "You are a lion with a big mouth, why don't you grab it?" ”

"You are not our life, so worthless, there are dozens of people less, you go and catch the tiger alive and show me, you go and catch the elephant to show me, and the clouded leopard is not big, but the general location is secret, not to mention the speed, and the lethality is not weak, these things, you should be the cabbage on the street, do you want that tree to pick that tree?"

Wang Mingyuan directly scolded back: "Why don't you go to this mountain for one night and try?" Do you know how much it takes? Did you know that it is possible to lose your life? ”

All of a sudden, Deng Qinglai was speechless.

Wang Mingyuan spread his hands: "It seems that it is not appropriate to negotiate...... Well, maybe other zoos need it, and I can talk to someone about it. ”

This price is not cheap, but Wang Mingyuan doesn't believe it, a municipal construction, even this money is reluctant to pay.

Moreover, to be honest, the three of them did not give Wang Mingyuan a good sense, they always seemed to be superior, and they were all pretending to be big-tailed wolves.

As long as you are willing, there is no shortage of this way!

"Chief Wang, forgive me, my assistant is not very good at talking. Things will be done as you say, after all, it is a big risk, and it does require a lot of manpower and material resources, which is not a simple thing. ”

Huang Weijun reacted in time, hurriedly said with a smile, and then glared at Deng Qinglai fiercely.

The three of them had ghosts in their hearts, and Deng Qinglai quickly reacted: "I'm sorry, it's me who didn't think about it." ”

Wang Mingyuan smiled, too lazy to bother with him.

Zhang Shouzhong, who had been listening silently, quietly gave Wang Mingyuan a thumbs up.

To be honest, when he heard the price given by Wang Mingyuan just now, even he himself was taken aback.

One or two thousand dollars at every turn, which is not a small amount.

He thought that when things were going to be yellow, but it just happened, and it was outrageous.

At this moment, Han Xiaoling trotted out of the kitchen, went to Wang Mingyuan's side, and whispered in Wang Mingyuan's ear: "The meal is ready, do you go to the kitchen to eat or is it right here?" ”

At the beginning of cutting down trees, I deliberately left some wooden stakes that were smoothed to rest, some were used as stools for resting, and some were relatively large, and it was no problem to make tables.

I originally wanted to bring it out and eat it, but when I thought of other people...... Wang Mingyuan whispered to Han Xiaoling: "Go back to the kitchen and eat."

You have to consider people's feelings!

Then, he looked at the three of them: "Since the price is right, the matter is so decided, the three of them leave their contact information, and when they are caught, they will tell you to come down and pull it." ”

"Good!"

Huang Weijun took out a pen and paper and wrote down the telegram of contact, as well as the phone number of his office: "As for the money, when the time comes, we will pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, after all, we also have to see the situation of the animals caught." ”

"No problem!"

Wang Mingyuan took it and took a look, and put it in his pocket casually: "Three, the meal has been cooked, and it is already evening, so I must have been hungry for a long time...... Please also move to the kitchen and try our game. ”

The three of them followed Wang Mingyuan and Zhang Shouzhong into the kitchen, and at a glance, good guys, there were seven or eight things on the table, all of which were meat.

Yellow stew, stir-fry, fry, simmer...... That's a different trick.

Even if they were people with good positions in Ming City, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva when they saw this table full of game.

"It's all some game from the mountains, including rabbit meat, pheasant meat, muntjac meat, wild boar meat, ......" Wang Mingyuan introduced: "The farm is poor, not as good as the city, so I can only use these to entertain you, especially this wild boar, there is no fat on the body, and the meat is still firewood...... Several generals will deal with it. ”

Everything is meat, and he dares to shout poor.

Even if everything is game, even if you are a city person, you can't afford to eat it.

They suspected that Wang Mingyuan did it on purpose, but there was no evidence.

One by one, they looked at the table full of game, not knowing what to say.

"Alas, don't stand, sit and sit ......" Wang Mingyuan smiled and beckoned Huang Weijun and the three of them to take a seat, and Ma Cui and the others who helped also sat next to Han Xiaoling.

The people couldn't wait for a long time, and they were not polite, so they sat down directly, exchanged a few symbolic greetings, and moved quickly.

When you enter the game, your eyes light up all at once.

"How can this taste so good?"

They all had a voice shouting in their hearts.

Not only Huang Weijun and the three teachers, but also Ma Cui and the other three teachers.

In these years, there is not only a shortage of grain and oil, but also a shortage of various condiments and spices.

In this regard, others may be difficult problems, but Wang Mingyuan does not exist here.

Zhang Shouzhong and Han Xiaoling reacted very calmly, these days, they have long been used to eating, in their eyes, they are the same as Wang Mingyuan, they feel very normal, and their mouths are raised.

Especially Li Limin, who claims to be an expert in animal protection research, this guy is even more ferocious when he eats.

Seeing that Wang Mingyuan wanted to ask him: "Do you still protect this animal?" ”

The meal lasted for more than half an hour, and in the end only a table of bones remained, and the dishes were pulled clean.

Even when they saw it themselves, they felt embarrassed.

At this time, Kang Langxiang's house was eating, but the door was bolted by Kang Moxiang from the inside.

Looking at Kang Moxiang, who returned to the table, Kang Langxiang asked in wonder, "Abba, don't eat well, what are you busy closing the door for?" ”

"I have something to tell you." Kang Moxiang coughed lightly and looked at Kang Moxiang very seriously.

Seeing him like this, Kang Langxiang's brows furrowed.

As the only daughter of Kang Moxiang, Kang Langxiang is also a person who has lived with him for more than 20 years, and he still knows him somewhat.

In terms of elephant taming, Kang Moxiang is indeed very skilled, but he prefers to make elephants everywhere to pretend to be magic sticks.

It's rare for him to be so serious.

Kang Langxiang put down the rice bowl again, and looked at Kang Moxiang seriously: "Abba, what's the matter?" ”

"Do you think it's better to be in Mingcheng or on the farm? I want to go to Myeongseong. Kang Moxiang asked in a low voice.

"There are many people in Mingcheng who don't have jobs, what are you doing in Mingcheng?"

"You can become a doctor, there is a shortage of doctors!"

"Abba, what the hell are you trying to say?"

"I just want to ask you, if you can become a doctor and have a serious job in Mingcheng, will you go to Mingcheng?"

Kang Langxiang looked at Kang Moxiang with a strange look, and after thinking for a while, he said, "I think the farm is quite good. ”

"What's good, this person has to go out for a good walk and have a long insight, if our places are good, why don't those educated youths stay, they have to go back to the city in a hurry." If you want me to say, it must be in the city. ”

Kang Moxiang shook his head: "We can't nest in this mountain for the rest of our lives. I can see it, don't look at Xiao Wang's prosperity here, in fact, the situation is not necessarily very good. ”

Hearing this, Kang Langxiang's brows furrowed suddenly.

"The two leaders who came last time, you went out to see people, and you didn't meet them, but I know that Xiao Wang and Zhang Shouzhong did bad things, they took poisonous mushrooms to the two leaders to eat, and sent people to the hospital, I think they just want to harm others, they must have done something unseemly, have you ever wondered, where did Xiao Wang get so much money?"

"You can't talk nonsense about this." How could Kang Langxiang not know about this, Zhang Shouzhong told her and deliberately avoided it.

"How can I talk nonsense, I saw it when I was helping to clean up the soup pot after they left, there were poisonous mushrooms in the pot, Xiao Wang didn't know and it was reasonable, Zhang Shouzhong didn't know, then it's weird, and those fungi were personally obtained by the two of them, and it was impossible for Xiao Wang not to know, otherwise, a pot of mushrooms would be fine with them? I feel that if I stay any longer, something will definitely happen and I will be implicated. ”

"So you're going to Mingcheng?"

"The people at the zoo said that I have the ability to tammy elephants, I can be a keeper, you are a doctor, I can also have a good development in the zoo, my work is easy and stable, and I am ......in a big place."

"I see!" Kang Langxiang laughed: "You were picked up by the three people from the zoo, right?" I won't go, Abba, if you want to go, I don't object to it. Anyway, you have a higher salary than Mingcheng on the farm, and you eat better meals than Mingcheng people, but you only serve a baby elephant, a few goats, and a lot of food on the farm, it's too easy, and you really don't deserve it. ”
