The whole mountain is my hunting ground.

Chapter 1244 Landlord
There are more rules in the business of collecting ginseng from the mountains than in hunting. According to legend, only the blessed can see wild ginseng, and all opportunities come from the mountain gods and the old boss, so "worship when seeing a sign" is the tradition of the herders.

If there is a sign, there will be ginseng, with piety and respect, pray to the mountain god and the old boss to bless you to make a fortune.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with Zhao Youcai praying for the omen. Even if the omen was cut by his son, Zhao Youcai was not praying to the Zhao army, but to the mountain god and the old boss.

But the key point is that this omen is fake. It’s useless for Zhao Youcai to pray. He kowtows to the ground. How can Wang Qiang not stop him?

After hearing what Wang Qiang said, Zhao Youcai was stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered that Zhao Jun mentioned this last night.

"Fuck!" Zhao Youcai cursed and stood up from the ground in shame and anger.

Seeing that Zhao Youcai had a bad look and a tense face, Wang Qiang didn't dare to say anything. He just gave a torch to Zhao Youcai.

Zhao Youcai took the torch and followed Wang Qiang to the treasure cellar. He walked around the big bluestone and the tree, and looked at the traces of words carved on the tree trunk. Zhao Youcai nodded seriously and said, "It should be right under here!"

"Yeah!" Wang Qiang's mouth twitched slightly. He had the urge to say something sarcastic, but he didn't dare to do so because he was afraid that Zhao Youcai was still angry.

At this time, Zhao Jun had arrived at Lao Guotou's shack. He parked his motorcycle and went into the shack to pick up Xing San.

The old man had finished his meal long ago and was sitting on the kang with Guo Dewang smoking.

Seeing Zhao Jun coming, Xing San immediately got up from the kang and asked Zhao Jun to get something.

Seeing Zhao Jun taking out a shovel, a pickaxe, and a chainsaw, Guo Dewang asked Zhao Jun curiously, "Kid, what are you doing?"

When Xing San came to stay the day before yesterday, Guo Dewang asked him why he came. At that time, Xing San said that he came to pick badgers, and Guo Dewang didn't think much of it.

But Xing San went out for a day yesterday, and came back on a motorcycle in the evening, and he brought back so many tools. The shovel and pickaxe are indeed used to catch badgers, but who can go to such great lengths to catch badgers?
Besides, what is a badger hole? I spent the whole day yesterday digging, and I still can’t finish it?
"Didn't I tell you to pick badgers, pick badgers?" At this time, Xing San rushed to respond to Guo Dewang before Zhao Jun, cursing, "I've told you many times, and you're still asking!"

Guo Dewang quickly shut up, but glared at Xing San fiercely. Guo Dewang felt that he should not argue with Xing San, because this shack was given to him by Xing San, not because of the boning knife on Xing San's back.

Zhao Jun glanced at Guo Dewang, but didn't say anything. He walked out carrying the chainsaw and tools.

At this time, Xing San said to Guo Dewang: "I will take those two big water spikes of yours first, and then I will return them to you after I use them."

Shuishao is a northern dialect, which simply means an iron bucket.

Guo Dewang lived in a shack in the mountains and usually used a pole to carry water from a water spout. Two large water spouts could last him a week if used sparingly.

When Guo Dewang heard that Xing San wanted to borrow the water spike, he became even more suspicious, but he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He just said, "Take it, and return it to me after you use it."

"I will definitely send it back to you. I have to stay at your place tonight." Xing San said, and walked out with a shoulder pole and a water pole.

Guo Dewang stood up to see him off, but heard Xing San say, "Give me your Wei De Luo as well."

"Ah..." Guo Dewang picked up the bait he used to pick fish and carried it out the door.

The two big water shuttles and the feeding rope were tied to the back of the motorcycle, the shoulder pole and the shovel were tied together, and then Xing San got on the motorcycle and disappeared in front of the shack on his back.

Guo Dewang stretched his neck to look in the direction where Zhao Jun and Xing San left. He was curious but did not dare to follow them.

At this time, two people came down from the southern fork, saw someone in front of the shack, and came over to ask for directions, "Brother, how do we get to Yong'antun?"

……

Ten minutes later, at the same place where they parked yesterday, Zhao Jun locked the motorcycle to a tree, and went with Xing San to meet up with Zhao Youcai and Wang Qiang.

By the time the four of them got together, it was already 7:15. During this time, Zhao Youcai and Wang Qiang were not idle either, they scraped a lot of dry branches nearby.

As soon as the chainsaw arrived, they immediately looked for pine cones and rotten wooden boxes to cut firewood. By 8:30, they had built a firewood pile on the south side of the big bluestone.

The firewood was lit, and the flames quickly shot up to two meters high. When the mountain wind blew, the flames burned the tree trunk on the north side. The tree might be supported by a rock, and it leaned toward the north, so the wind was needed to blow the fire to burn it. In addition, the water in the trunk froze in winter, so the tree was difficult to burn.

The fire was not set to burn trees, but to burn rocks. The rocks were burning hot, and when cold mountain spring water was poured on them, the rocks exploded, revealing the treasure cellar underneath.

To succeed at once, you have to get it right.

The four of them sat around the fire patiently chatting until after ten o'clock, adding firewood twice to ensure that the fire was neither too big nor too small.

Now as no more firewood was added, the fire gradually died down. Zhao Jun and Wang Qiang stood up, Zhao Jun carrying two water poles and Wang Qiang carrying a feeding rope, and the two went to fetch water not far away.

……

At the same time, two outsiders came to Yong'antun.

The two men were exhausted as they entered from the south of Yong'an Village. When they passed a house, they saw a man walking out of the yard.

The man was not very old, but his behavior was strange. He walked with his legs spread out and his body swaying, like a big duck.

"Young man!" The older of the two asked for directions, "I want to ask you how to get to Zhao Youcai's house."

"Huh?" Zhang Laibao was stunned and wondered why he didn't look for Zhao Jun this time?
Zhang Laibao raised his hand and subconsciously wanted to point the two people to a fork in the road, but then he changed his mind and realized that he had already been beaten twice for pointing them in the wrong direction.

Thinking about this, Zhang Laibao threw his hands in annoyance and said, "I don't know!"

"Hey?" Hearing this, the middle-aged man pointed at Zhang Laibao angrily and said, "What's wrong with you, little brother? Isn't this Yong'an Village? You live in the same village, how could you not know?"

Zhang Laibao subconsciously took a step back when the middle-aged man pointed at him. Fearing that he would be beaten again, he hurriedly asked, "Are you two from our forest area? What are you looking for Zhao Youcai for?"

"My father and I are from Hansongbao in Lingnan." At this time, the old man who first asked for directions stopped the middle-aged man and said to Zhang Laibao, "We came here to find Zhao Youcai and Zhao Jun. We want them to come to our place to fight tigers!"

The old man's name is Song Xiangchen. He is the old secretary of Hansongbaozi, the third uncle of Huang Gui's wife Song Lan, and the mentor of Zhang Yuanmin's father.

Back then, Zhang Da-nao traveled to Hansongbaozi, and Song Xiangchen felt sorry for him and took him in to herd cattle for the production team.

At that time, the Siberian tiger was migrating. Zhang Da-Nao devised a plan to drive away the cows and lure the tiger, allowing the Siberian tiger to eat two more cows from the Hansongbuzi Production Brigade.

Back then, the Yong'an Forest Farm would make a big fuss because of a tiger eating cows. How could the Hansongbaozi Production Team tolerate the loss of three cows in a row?

Song Xiangchen resigned as a result, and since then, the secretary of their production team has always been a member of the Han family.

Many years later, Hansongbaozi was plagued by tigers again, and Song Xiangchen asked his nephew-in-law Huang Gui to go and hunt the tiger.

Huang Laozi was really a man of character. He knocked down a tiger as soon as he got there, but he didn't expect that there would be two tigers passing by this time.

After Huang Gui was injured, he recommended Zhao Jun to Song Xiangchen on his sickbed. When Song Xiangchen heard that it was the Fu Hu general on Weizhen Ridge, he was of course happy to agree. But when he called Yong'antun, he was stopped by Wang Meilan.

As the name suggests, Hansong Fort was a gathering place for people with the surnames Han and Song. Over the years, the two surnames intermarried and there was no distinction between them.

However, Song Xiangchen regarded his resignation as a shame in his life. Although the old man was old, he wanted to see his son take back the position of brigade secretary from the Han family before he closed his eyes.

As the saying goes: Get up from where you fell.

This time, not only did they find someone to fight the tiger, but the brigade secretary Han Qiushi's family also found someone. Now that neither side has successfully eliminated the tiger problem, the Song family father and son came to Yong'an.

It happened that someone from the team went to Dahailin to visit relatives, so the two of them followed the car that arrived at Dahailin first, and then dug out of the mountain to Yong'an to invite Zhao Jun and Zhao Youcai.

This was Huang Gui's opinion. When he was in Yong'an, he saw Zhao Youcai display his tiger ears and tiger tail, and knew that Zhao Youcai was indeed quite capable.

So after arriving at Yong'antun, Song Xiangchen asked how to get to Zhao Youcai's house. This was normal, after all, Zhao Youcai was an old man.

"Kill the tiger?" Zhang Laibao was startled when he heard Song Xiangchen's words, and blurted out, "Isn't that against the law?"

"We reported it!" said the middle-aged man Song Changqing, "That tiger mother harmed our old cow, but luckily she didn't hurt her child."

"Harming Old Cow?" Zhang Laibao was amused when he heard this. He smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Then don't look for Zhao Youcai."

"Huh?" Song Xiangchen and Song Changqing were stunned. Song Xiangchen asked, "Young man, why is that?"

“Hahaha…” Zhang Laibao laughed at first, then said, “He’s done more harm to Lao Niu than Tiger Mommy!”

Hearing what he said, the father and son of the Song family looked at each other, and the same thought flashed through their minds at this time: "Could it be another big fool Zhang?"

At this time, Song Xiangchen winked at Song Changqing, who asked Zhang Laibao, "Little brother, what's going on?"

Zhang Laibao smiled and spread his hands around, saying, "You two can go around the village and ask around. Zhao Youcai has a nickname called Cow-Slaughtering Cannon, hehe..."

"Bull-killing cannon?" The Song family father and son looked at each other in bewilderment, and Zhang Laibao continued, "In less than two months, he has killed two old cows. Can anything good happen if you go find him?"

Song Xiangchen was old enough to see that Zhang Laibao was not blind, so he asked, "What about Zhao Jun?"

"Zhao Jun..." Zhang Laibao pursed his lips when he heard that. He wanted to discredit Zhao Jun more than Zhao Youcai, but he couldn't discredit Zhao Jun. Fu Hujiang had been in the newspapers, so how could he discredit him?
At this moment, a person walked by. Zhang Laibao shrank his neck, raised his hand and gestured forward, and said in panic: "She is going to Zhao Jun's house, let her take you there."

After saying that, Zhang Laibao turned around and ran back without even going to the toilet.

Song Xiangchen narrowed his eyes and saw a little old lady walking across the crosswalk in front of him. He hurriedly took Song Changqing to chase after her and called out, "Big sister!"

Xie Sun, who was on her way, was stunned. She looked around blankly and saw that there was no one around. She knew that the person behind her was calling her.

But when Sun Xie turned around and saw that it was an old man, she immediately raised her head and put her chin forward a little, and asked unhappily: "Who are you calling big sister? You are so stupid!"

"I..." Song Xiangchen almost choked. Song Changqing, who was standing next to him, was also angry, but he couldn't argue with an old lady.

"Big sister." Song Xiangchen calmed himself down and secretly glanced at Jie Sun in front of him. He saw that the little old lady was wearing her new cotton-padded jacket and new trousers neatly, with her hands tucked into her sleeves, looking at him with an unfriendly face.

Since arriving at Zhao Jun's house, Xie Sun has gained more than ten pounds, her cheeks are bulging, and she has a face full of flesh, which looks quite scary.

Song Xiangchen said politely: "We want to go to Zhao Youcai's house."

"What are you two doing?" Upon hearing that these two people were heading for the Zhao family, Xie Sun instantly became alert and looked Song Xiangchen and Song Changqing up and down.

"We came from Songbaozi in South Korea." Song Xiangchen said, "We want to invite Zhao... that..."

Song Xiangchen paused halfway through his words before continuing, "Please ask the Zhao army to help us fight the tiger."

Originally, Song Xiangchen wanted to invite Zhao Youcai and Zhao Jun, but after listening to Zhang Laibao's words, he changed his mind and only invited Zhao Jun.

"Fighting tigers?" Xie Sun frowned, guessing in her heart that these two people were brought by Huang Gui, but Xie Sun knew that her sister didn't want Zhao Jun to get involved in this muddy water.

But when she thought of Huang Gui's face, Xie Sun shook her head towards the east and said, "Come on, follow me!"

As she spoke, Xie Sun led the way, guiding Song Xiangchen and Song Changqing towards Zhao Jun's home.

But not long after they walked, when they passed Wang Fujia's store, Xie Sun paused, lowered her chin to the side of the road, and said to the Song family father and son, "This is the store in our village."

"Selling a shop?" Song Changqing was stunned. Song Xiangchen reacted first and said, "Ah, I was just thinking about it. You can't go to someone's house empty-handed, right?"

After Song Xiangchen finished speaking, he realized that Sun didn't respond, so he took Song Changqing into the store.

The customs in Lingnan and Lingdong are not much different. The Song father and son bought two cans of food and two bottles of Shanhebai in the grocery store, which added up to four boxes of gifts, costing nearly two dollars. After coming out, they went to Zhao Jun's house with Jie Sunshi.

Two or three minutes later, they heard dogs barking in front of them. Xie Sun raised her hand and pointed forward, saying, "That's Zhao Jun's house."

"Ah!" Song Xiangchen listened to the barking of dogs and asked, "How many dogs do you have?"

"About twenty." Xie Sun reported a number that shocked the Song father and son. This number was almost half of their fort.

As they talked, the dog barked even more fiercely at the sound of strangers. At this time, the father and son of the Song family, who were at the door of the Zhao family, looked at the thousands of wintersweet flowers on the fence and could not help but stay there.

"Well..." Xie Sun waved her hand at the Song family father and son and said, "You two wait here for a moment. I'll go in and report."

The word "tongbing" was used by Li Dayong to tease Jie Chen a few days ago. Li Dayong said that Jie Chen lit a lamp every day, so he might as well build a small room at the door and let Jie Chen be the doorman, and he would report the arrival and departure of guests.

This was a joke between the elders and the younger generations. Everyone laughed after hearing it, but Xie Sun remembered the word "tongbin".

At this time, Xie Sun was not trying to show off. She wanted to go in and talk to Wang Meilan first so that Wang Meilan could be prepared. After all, Wang Meilan didn't want the Zhao army to go fight the tiger.

Seeing Xie Sunshi running into the courtyard, Song Changqing pointed at Xie Sunshi's back and said to Song Xiangchen, "Dad, who is this person? She's reporting! This is fucking..."

At this time, Song Xiangchen was looking up at the two big red lanterns hanging high up. After hearing what Song Changqing said, Song Xiangchen gritted his teeth and said, "This is a fucking landlord!"
