Family Rise: Beginning with Grandfather

Chapter 6: In-laws Jiang Family

When Yang Mingzhi arrived at Jiangjiacun, the sky had completely darkened.

He came to his brother-in-law Jiang's house and knocked on the door. The person who opened the door was not Jiang He, but Jiang He's father Jiang Cheng.

"Mingzhi! Why are you here?"

Jiang Cheng is nearly fifty years old and his hair is all white.

"Uncle Jiang, my father shot two big wild boars on the mountain. I would like to ask Uncle Jiang to find some people to help bring them down the mountain." Yang Mingzhi said.

"Big wild boar!" Jiang Cheng was even more surprised. Although there were many hunters in Jiangjia Village, they did not hunt large prey often.

Prey like wild boars are only encountered a few times a year.

"Well, two big wild boars and two small wild boars!" Yang Mingzhi said.

At this time, several more people came out of the Jiang family, "Dad, who is here!"

"It's Mingzhi! Mingzhi, come on first!" Jiang Cheng said.

The Jiang family is similar to the Yang family. They are also a large family living together and are not separated.

Jiang Cheng has four sons. Jiang He is the youngest. He is 18 years old, one year older than Yang Mingzhi.

After entering the Jiang family, Yang Mingzhi briefly told Yang Zhengshan about hunting wild boars. Everyone in the Jiang family was extremely surprised after hearing this.

Speaking of which, the life of the Jiang family is better than that of the Yang family. Not only does the Jiang family have fields, they can also hunt in the mountains. Even if they can only hunt some small prey, they can often see meat and fish.

If you can hunt small animals such as foxes and martens, you can make a fortune.

Fox and mink fur are very valuable. If it is a red fox or white fox, a piece of fur can be sold for dozens or even hundreds of taels of silver.

Jiang Cheng is an experienced old hunter, and the four sons of the Jiang family are also hunters. They often go into the mountains to hunt, and they often get some windfalls.

Therefore, the life of the Jiang family is much better than that of the Yang family.

After Jiang Cheng listened to Yang Mingzhi's story, his cloudy eyes immediately lit up.

"Is my father-in-law's injury healed?"

The two families were related by marriage and had a relatively close relationship. Jiang Cheng naturally knew that Yang Zhengshan was a warrior in the past and also knew about Yang Zhengshan's hidden wounds.

"Okay!" Yang Mingzhi grinned.

"Okay~~" Jiang Cheng was overjoyed and immediately told the boss of the Jiang family: "Boss, go to your third uncle's house and tell your third uncle to prepare and go to the mountain early tomorrow morning!"

"Fourth child, ask your wife to go back to her parents' house tomorrow morning and ask Mingcheng to drive the ox cart over."

The Jiang family has rich experience in transporting large prey from the mountains. Yang Mingzhi doesn't need to say anything. Jiang Chengcheng has arranged everything.

The next day, at dawn, Jiang Chengcheng led seven or eight young men into the mountain.

They were more familiar with the mountain forest environment and found Yang Zhengshan before noon.

"Father-in-law!"

From a distance, Jiang Chengcheng shouted enthusiastically.

Warrior, this is a warrior.

Although there are many people practicing martial arts in Anning County, there are only a few people who can actually become martial artists.

There is not a single warrior in Jiangjia Village. Apart from Yang Zhengshan, only the patriarch Yang Zhengxiang is a warrior in Yangjia Village. This shows that the number of warriors is very small.

Having a warrior as an in-law is definitely a good thing for the Jiang family.

"Brother Jiang, I'm sorry to trouble you!" Yang Zhengshan said calmly when he saw a large group of big men.

In fact, he was quite happy, but his original personality was that of a relatively calm person.

This is related to the hidden wounds of the original body. Now that the hidden wounds have healed, Yang Zhengshan feels that the original personality can be changed, but this personality needs to be changed slowly and cannot be done overnight.

"father!"

This was not shouted by Yang Mingzhi, but by Jiang He.

Yes, a very energetic young man.

Jiang Cheng looked at the wild boar next to him and said with a click of his tongue: "It's amazing. One shot penetrated the throat. It's true that the warrior is not comparable to ordinary people."

Hunters like them want to hunt wild boars, they can only rely on traps, even bows and arrows. The wild boar's fur is very thick, and unless a strong bow is used or the vital part is hit, the wild boar can only be slightly injured.

A shot through the throat like this is something that hunters like them would never be able to do.

"Get started!"

Jiang Cheng waved his hand, and the man behind him immediately tied up the two big wild boars with ropes, and then carried them down the mountain.

Although Yang Zhengshan didn't sleep all night, he was still in good spirits because of the spiritual spring water.

The men in the mountain villages are very strong, and it is not difficult at all to carry a large wild boar weighing more than 300 kilograms.

But the speed was definitely not as fast as without the burden. By the time they returned to Jiangjiacun, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening.

"father!"

"Dad, are you not hurt?"

As soon as they returned to Jiang's house, Yang Mingcheng and Yang Yunyan greeted them.

Yang Zhengshan was stunned when he looked at his eldest daughter. Speaking of which, his two cheap girls were both good-looking and followed their mothers. Their mothers had bright eyes and white teeth. Although the two cheap girls were not big Beautiful, but also very attractive.

"I'm fine!" Yang Zhengshan waved his hand.

Yang Yunyan was handing over towels and water, which made Yang Zhengshan feel a little embarrassed.

This girl came so cheaply that he really couldn't get used to it.

"My father-in-law, the wild boar has been loaded on the car!" Jiang He came over and said.

Yang Zhengshan did not stay any longer and simply thanked him. After leaving the two little wild boars behind, he left the Jiang family with his two sons.

The two little wild boars weighed nearly a hundred pounds in total, which was considered a reward for the Jiang family's help.

Jiang He did not refuse. This was the rule of Jiangjia Village. If you go into the mountains to help, you must be paid, otherwise no one would be willing to waste their efforts.

If it was just his family, he could help for free, but this time his third brother's family was helping, so he had to be rewarded.

Returning to the Yang family, there was no shortage of surprises.

Wang and Li were both delighted when they looked at the two big wild boars.

After knowing that Yang Zhengshan's injury had healed, Wang's mouth was even grinning from ear to ear.

The youngest daughter Yang Yunxue looked at Yang Zhengshan with sparkling eyes. The admiration from the youngest daughter made Yang Zhengshan feel full of accomplishment.

"Grandpa is so awesome!"

"Big wild boar, big wild boar!"

The two grandsons cheered.

Not only Yang Zhengshan's family, but also the neighbors were alarmed.

"Uncle Zhengshan, did you kill this?"

"Is Uncle Zhengshan well?"

Even in the middle of the night, many people came to watch the two big wild boars.

There were no hunters in Yangjia Village, and there were not many prey in the back mountain of Yangjia Village, so almost no one would hunt in the mountains.

Yang Zhengshan hunted two big wild boars this time, which was definitely a matter worth talking about in Yangjia Village.

In addition, Yang Zhengshan's body recovered, and Yangjia Village had one more warrior, which was also a great thing for the Yang family.

It was lively until midnight, and the neighbors left.

After two days and one night without sleep, Yang Zhengshan felt a little tired. He fell asleep as soon as he touched the pillow on the kang.

The next morning, Yang Zhengshan and Yang Mingcheng drove the ox cart to the county town.

The two big wild boars attracted a lot of attention as soon as they entered the market. Soon a middle-aged man in a green gown came to the ox cart.

Yang Zhengshan looked at the middle-aged man in front of him.

The man was wearing a green gown, had a long beard, and had a rich face. He should be a rich family.

The reason why he was called a rich family, not a rich and noble child, was because the Darong Dynasty had strict regulations on the clothes of the people.

Clothes for common people are allowed to be made of silk, gauze, silk and cloth. The colors must avoid black, purple, green, willow yellow, ginger yellow and bright yellow. Ochre, cyan and blue can be used.

However, merchants are equal to prostitutes and are only allowed to use silk and cloth. If a family has one person engaged in business, the whole family is not allowed to use clothes made of silk and gauze, and they are not allowed to wear mink fur in the cold winter.

The man in front of him is either a businessman or a squire.

"How much do these two wild boars cost?"

"Thirty taels!" Yang Zhengshan said.

He didn't think of leaving some wild boar meat, because wild boar meat has a strange smell and it is very unpalatable if it is not cooked well.

In short, he didn't believe in Wang's cooking skills. Eating wild boar meat is not as good as buying pork raised by buyers, and domestic pork is cheaper than wild boar meat.

"Okay, I'll take them all, help me send them back!"

The man waved his hand very generously, which made Yang Zhengshan, who was waiting for bargaining, stunned.

I met a local tyrant!

He didn't bargain. I should have asked for more if I had known.

However, since the price had been set, Yang Zhengshan had no reason to regret it, and directly ordered Yang Mingcheng to drive the ox cart and follow the man out of the market.

When the man arrived at the destination, Yang Zhengshan realized that he was not a local tyrant, but the steward of the county magistrate's family, because they came to the backyard of the county government.

The seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, the steward of the county magistrate's family is also so wealthy, it seems that the county magistrate is very rich.

The steward did not embarrass Yang Zhengshan, paid very readily, and said that if there are large prey in the future, they can be sent directly.

Yang Zhengshan agreed, but whether there is one or not is another matter.

He is not a professional hunter. Luck played a big role in his ability to kill two big wild boars this time.

And he did not intend to be a hunter. He is a warrior, and there are many ways to make money, so there is no need to be a hunter.

After getting the silver, Yang Zhengshan returned to the market to buy some.

Pork, pork bones, cloth, cotton, fragrant meat buns, etc.

Winter is coming soon and we need to buy some cotton clothes at home.
