The whole mountain is my hunting ground.

Chapter 1273 Wang Meilan is too cheap!
Yan Shugang has been working in the forest area. Before coming to Yong'an, he served as the security chief of Yuejin Forest Farm under the Shanhe Forestry Bureau.

Yuejin Forest Farm is a public forest area, and its scale is far smaller than that of Yong'an Forest Area, so Yan Shugang's transfer from Yuejin to Yong'an can be considered a promotion.

Having been in the forest area for so many years, Yan Shugang doesn't know how to hunt, but he has heard a little about it from chatting with others.

Hearing Zhao Jun say that he wanted to use a pole to fight the Siberian tiger, Yan Shugang hurriedly said, "Zhao Jun, you have to be careful with that thing. You can't let anyone lift it up!"

The carrying pole can even lift a Siberian tiger weighing several hundred pounds, let alone a person weighing over a hundred pounds?

It was freezing cold, and if he stayed hanging overnight, the man would turn into a big popsicle.

"That's definitely not possible." Zhao Jun said, "I'll stay at the site today and go up the mountain early tomorrow morning. I'll find out where they are in the morning and close the mountain in the afternoon. I'll put up warning signs at every intersection and then hoist the pole up when I'm done."

Hearing Zhao Jun say this, Yan Shugang pondered for three or four seconds, then nodded heavily and said, "Okay, Zhao Jun, if you have a plan, our security team will fully support you!"

Logically speaking, Yan Shugang is an outsider cadre who has just arrived at this unfamiliar position and should make the first move of his job.

That is to win over ordinary security guards and threaten Zhao Jun and Liu Jinyong.

But as soon as Yan Shugang took office, an unprecedented incident in decades occurred: two tigers caused trouble in Yong'an. Not only could Yan Shugang not suppress the Zhao army, but he had to fully support the Zhao army.

Although what Zhao Jun said just now sounds simple, closing the mountain is not that easy.

Especially, they are not blocking people, they are blocking tigers!

"Zhao... Deputy Team Leader." At this moment, Han Shaogang asked Zhao Jun, "Can we carry poles... in winter?"

When choosing a pole, people usually choose elm or poplar, cut off its branches, and bend the trunk to make a hook.

After the prey steps into the trap, the tree trunk straightens up and suspends the prey in mid-air.

Song Tiemin's uncle Song Laowai from Yong'an is an expert in this. The old man lives on a bluestone cliff all year round and hangs sheep on a pole.

But even the old mountain dog couldn't do anything in winter because the trees were frozen and the water inside the trunks froze, making the trunks hard and pliable but not bendable.

Zhao Jun glanced at Han Shaogang, then looked at Yan Shugang, only to see that the security chief was looking at him.

Zhao Jun smiled and said, "I've thought of this. I've also told Secretary Zhou to get a pole-lifting machine and use a lever to lift it up."

Zhao Jun wanted to get special materials before, but even Yu Xuewen’s help didn’t work. He had no choice but to make a big move.

Seeing that Zhao Jun really knew what was going on, Yan Shugang's trust in Zhao Jun increased a little more.

At this time, the bell for the end of get off work at the forest farm rang. Yan Shugang glanced at everyone and said to all the security guards in an unquestionable tone: "Those who worked the night shift yesterday go home, and the others stay. Those who go home today cannot rest tomorrow and must come to the farm to work."

During this special period, the security guards are like this. No one complained. The few people who worked the night shift last night looked at their colleagues and felt reluctant to leave.

"Let's go!" Yan Shugang waved his hand and said, "We're not going home. Let's go to the cafeteria to eat. After dinner, we'll come back for a meeting and let Deputy Team Leader Zhao tell us about tomorrow's arrangements."

After saying that, Yan Shugang turned around and left. Everyone else left, and those who were going home followed him out.

There is someone on duty in the cafeteria every night, and today it is Han Daming's turn.

Seeing this group of people coming, Han Daming ran out from the kitchen in a panic, came to Yan Shugang, and said, "Director Yan, we didn't prepare food for so many people."

Those who usually work the night shift at the forest farm include a doorman, a guesthouse manager, six security guards, and Zhou Chunming, who stays at the farm and does not go home.

Yan Shugang would not be going home these two days, but he had been notified in advance and the kitchen had prepared meals for him.

But now more than 20 security guards have arrived without any prior notice, so the cook cannot be blamed for the lack of food.

"Master, what's your last name?" Yan Shugang politely extended his hand to Han Daming. Han Daming was flattered and rubbed his hand on the scarf twice, then shook Yan Shugang's hand and said, "Director Yan, I don't need to ask for your last name, Han, my name is Han Daming."

"Master Han." Yan Shugang took Han Daming's hand and said politely, "We security guards can't go home tonight for the sake of the forest farm. Master Han, you have worked so hard. Please give us a whole meal. We don't care if it's good or bad. As long as we are full, that's enough."

"Oh no." Han Daming squinted his eyes, pointed to the kitchen, and said, "The rice is ready, but it's not enough for these people. Well, there's some frozen food outside, I'll bring it back and warm it up. As for the dishes, the soup is not enough, I'll stir-fry some cabbage and potato slices. That's quick, okay?"

"That's great!" Yan Shugang said with a smile, "Thank you for your hard work, Master Han."

Han Daming said it was not hard and went to the kitchen to work.

As soon as the security guards sat down, Zhou Chunming came in with a lunch box.

There happened to be a seat available at the table occupied by Zhao Jun, Yan Shugang and Liu Jinyong, so Zhou Chunming came over and sat next to Yan Shugang, opposite Zhao Jun.

Zhao Jun had already told Zhou Chunming in advance about the plan that he had just discussed with Yan Shugang in the security team, so Zhou Chunming did not ask the security team what plans they had, but only encouraged and cheered up the security guards.

Then, Zhou Chunming took out a box of Yingchun from his pocket and distributed it to the security guards.

Yan Shugang took a puff of Yingchun, held the cigarette in his hand and took a look at it. He had smoked three Shilin cigarettes of Zhao Youcai in the afternoon, and he could feel the difference when smoking this Yingchun now.

"How's it going, Old Yan?" Zhou Chunming smiled at Yan Shugang and said, "It's not easy here, is it?"

Yan Shugang pursed his lips and nodded, then smiled bitterly and said, "I didn't expect such a big thing to happen right after I took office, Secretary Zhou."

"Oh my!" Zhou Chunming sighed when he mentioned the past two days. "There has been no peace this year."

As he spoke, Zhou Chunming gestured to Liu Jinyong, but continued to say to Yan Shugang: "If you don't believe me, ask Jinyong."

Liu Jinyong also had a bitter smile on his face and said, "This year has not been very good. There has been no peace. The big cannon eggs are making trouble. After the big cannon eggs are making trouble, the blind bears are making trouble. After the blind bears are making trouble, the big claws are making trouble. After the big claws are making trouble, the blind bears are making trouble again."

Liu Jinyong's words gave Yan Shugang a headache.

During dinner yesterday, Liu Jinyong told Yan Shugang about the troubles that Yongan had encountered in the past year.

Yan Shugang was stunned by what he heard!
In fact, their security work is relatively easy. There are many valuable things in the forest farm, but most of them cannot be stolen because they are large items, such as wood, cars, and machinery.

Things that can be stolen, such as chainsaws, are not worth much. Big thieves would not look down on them, and small thieves would not dare to steal them.

Even if two stupid people happen to steal things from the forest farm one day, the case can basically be solved.

Therefore, Yan Shugang never expected that the job of security chief in such a large venue would be so difficult.

Wild boars, blind bears, and big claws, Yan Shugang had never dealt with these things before.

When he was working at Yuejin Forest Farm, there were of course cases of wild animals causing trouble, but the forest farm never had to intervene, as the local hunters solved the problems.

On Yong'an's side, it's not that the hunters are not strong enough, it's that the wild animals are too vicious.

Liu Jinyong said that this was all thanks to the presence of General Fu Hu, otherwise, who knows what would have happened.

"Oh my god!" Liu Jinyong finished speaking, and Zhou Chunming covered his cheek with his hands, saying, "It's so noisy that my teeth are all broken."

"Oh my!" Yan Shugang said sympathetically, "Who wouldn't be angry? If things go wrong, all the forest teams will have to stop production."

"That's not the case." Zhou Chunming put down his hand, looked at Zhao Jun with appreciation, and said, "Zhao Jun's idea is to give all the forest teams firecrackers and let them explode a few times when they go up the mountain."

After hearing what Zhou Chunming said, Yan Shugang blurted out: "How many firecrackers will that take?"

"It will take at least a day to lose production." Zhou Chunming sighed and said, "How much is too much if production is delayed for one day?"

"No, Secretary Zhou." Yan Shugang said, "I mean, where can we get those firecrackers?"

"I told Director Chu to help with the firecracker field." Zhou Chunming said, "Director Chu should communicate with them and send the steel iron to deliver it to us tomorrow morning."

"Big fields are good." Upon hearing this, Yan Shugang couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said, "As for the small field I used to have, the bureau didn't care about anything. And Sentie sent supplies? You flatter me! Just go to Dajiefang and get them yourself."

Yong'an is the second largest forest area under the Shanhe Forestry Bureau. If there is a problem with the winter transportation production in Yong'an Forest Area, it will directly affect the completion of the production tasks of the entire Shanhe Forestry Bureau.

After hearing what Yan Shugang said, Zhou Chunming smiled faintly, then looked at Zhao Jun and said, "Tomorrow, Chief Li from the security department of the bureau will come with a car. Don't you know them all?"

Seeing Zhao Jun nod, Zhou Chunming continued, "Tomorrow they will all follow you up the mountain. Don't worry about their ranks, they will all listen to you. This is what Director Chu said. If they don't listen to orders, Director Chu will deal with them."

Zhao Jun had no way of responding to this and could only smile and nod in agreement.

Yan Shugang secretly glanced at Zhao Jun. No one told him, but he could see clearly that Zhao Jun was a person that Director Chu valued.

Yan Shugang smiled bitterly to himself, thinking that he had worked in the forest farm under the Shanhe Forestry Bureau for more than ten years, and Director Chu did know him. But he only knew him when they met, and knew that he was his subordinate, but he didn't even know his name.

Seeing that Zhou Chunming and Yan Shugang were silent, Liu Jinyong smiled and said to Zhou Chunming: "Secretary Zhou, we can't borrow Zhao Jun out in the future. He went to Yongxing yesterday, which is close to us. He can come back at any time. If he goes far away, it will be troublesome."

"Not so good!" Zhou Chunming thought so in his heart, but those who came to borrow Zhao's army were not ordinary people.

"Secretary Zhou." Zhao Jun took the opportunity to say to Zhou Chunming, "I want to recruit our forestry guards, some of whom are good at hunting and have dogs and guns at home."

When Zhao Jun was first appointed to the position, Zhou Chunming said that as the deputy team leader he was not a lone commander, but had his own subordinates.

There are six vacancies, and like Zhao Jun, they are all forestry security guards.

But even though Zhou Chunming didn't say anything, Zhao Jun knew in his heart that although these six people were under his charge, he couldn't just recruit anyone he wanted.

Forestry and security are under the management of both forestry and security. Wouldn’t forestry and security want to place their own people there?

Not only the world of martial arts is filled with human relationships, but every corner of this world is filled with human relationships.

This has nothing to do with how powerful the backer is. If it relied on connections, Zhao Jun could have taken all six places.

But that would be too lonely.

If you are too independent, you will become a dictator.

That's not what Zhao Jun wanted.

But there are six places, and Zhao Jun wanted to get more, at least to include his uncle, Zhang Yuanmin, and Jie Chen.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when the two tigers were causing trouble in Yong'an, Zhao Jun put forward his own request. He could give quotas to forestry and defense, but the people who came had to be of similar level, and it was definitely not okay to come and eat for free.

"Yes." Zhou Chunming nodded, looked at Yan Shugang and said, "After you finish dealing with these two big claws, Old Yan, you can discuss this matter with Director Li."

"Hey." Yan Shugang responded, and then heard Zhou Chunming say: "What I mean is, you two should help Zhao Jun more. This is not a joke, and it's not an easy job."

At this point, Zhou Chunming glanced at Liu Jinyong, and then continued: "A few days ago, our deputy security team leader died in the line of duty because of this."

After hearing what Zhou Chunming said, Yan Shugang fell into deep thought. He had originally wanted to arrange for his nephews and nieces to come over, but after hearing what Zhao Jun and Zhou Chunming said, Yan Shugang thought it would be better to forget it.

……

Yong'an Tun, Zhao family.

Zhao Youcai, Li Dayong, Li Baoyu, Lin Xiangshun and Li Dazhi came back together after get off work.

The five people entered the house. Wang Meilan, who was cooking, was startled and asked Zhao Youcai, "Where is my son?"

Zhao Youcai, who was in a bad mood, said: "Your son is not coming back."

"Hmm?" Wang Meilan felt that there was something wrong with what he said, but she didn't bother to dwell on it and just asked, "Why didn't my son come back?"

"Well... I'm busy fighting big claws..." Zhao Youcai said, took out the list given by Zhao Jun from his pocket, handed it to Wang Meilan and said, "This is given to you by your son."

"What?" Wang Meilan took the paper, opened it, and her eyes lit up immediately. She said, "So cheap!"

When Zhao Youcai heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched. He glanced at Wang Meilan and walked into the inner room.

这时，金小梅等人凑到王美兰身旁，看着清单上写着：长虹21寸彩电1150、三洋双卡录放机1025、白菊回转桶式双桶洗衣机980、万宝冰箱1800。

When the women saw these products and their prices, they stopped putting their food on the table and started talking about them.

Wang Meilan went to the east room, took out an abacus from the kang cabinet, and calculated the total of the four items, which was 4,955 yuan.

It's almost five thousand yuan, but Wang Meilan still says it's cheap, because if you buy the same thing from a store at the foot of the mountain, you would have to spend several hundred more for each item.

"A big color TV, my family must have one too." Just like buying a big goose, when buying a TV, Xie Sun also joined in the fun.

"It's okay, Sister Sun." Jin Xiaomei said to Mrs. Sun with a smile, "My sixth son and his family all have quotas, so it's no problem if they want to buy."

After hearing what Jin Xiaomei said, Xie Sunshi smiled. At this time, Wang Meilan walked to the door of the west room and asked Zhao Youcai, "Will my son come back tomorrow?"

"I don't know." Zhao Youcai replied, "Why? Do you have something to do with him?"

"What do you mean I have something to do with him?" Wang Meilan said, "If he doesn't come back, how are you going to carry all those things?"

The forest farm has a commuter bus. If you buy a color TV, you can just move it onto the train.

But the Zhao family bought too many things, and it was a problem where to put them. Li Dayong and his family also bought TVs, and the Li family bought more than one, so no one could help Zhao Youcai.

"We can't move even if your son comes back." After Zhao Youcai said this, Wang Meilan was stunned for a moment, then waved her hand and said, "We don't need you anymore."

"Huh?" Zhao Youcai was stunned, and then he saw Wang Meilan shouting at Jie Chen: "My little minister!"

"Aunt!" Xie Chen stood up quickly, and then he heard Wang Meilan's instructions: "Whoever wants something, make a list, and then everyone pays for it. Tomorrow you drive to the site, go directly to your brother-in-law, pay the money and bring all the things back!"
