I traveled through time, starting with two acres of land and a dog

"Hu Zi, Hu Zi, why don't you give us another chance? This is our first time here and there are some things we don't fully understand." What his father said made sense. After so long of training, everyone could only distinguish left from right, and the concept of discipline had hardly formed in their heads.

Du Chenyu stopped and sat on the doorstep, and everyone looked at him.

"What do you think?" he asked the others.

"Please give us another chance, sir," everyone answered in unison.

"Well, considering that this is his first offense and he hasn't caused huge losses, the punishment will be changed to: 1. Stay in the team for one year for observation. If he makes the same mistake again within one year, there will be no discussion of expulsion.

2. Copy all the discipline provisions 30 times, explain the mistakes, and write at least 100 words;

3. Increase the training weight by 5 kg this month;

Fourth, the subsidy for this action will be cancelled. If you can do it, do it immediately. If you can’t do it, leave immediately.” He walked away with small steps without discussing it.

"We will complete it resolutely," Zhao Zhengming said, wiping away his tears.

Through this action, their wealth increased a lot. In this action, all team members were still rewarded with one dollar. My grandmother's family was allocated 10 dollars as resettlement expenses. After all, my grandmother's family left their hometown because of this. After the distribution was completed, plus the surplus from last year, they still had more than 100 dollars left.

Du Chenyu discussed with his father about this year's plan and planned to recruit 5 people, who would be mainly responsible for agricultural activities and training. The best candidates would be selected as team members, and two yuan would be given as resettlement allowance. If they could read and do accounting, three yuan would be given. In addition, a blacksmith would be hired to make farm tools at home and sell them in the shop. A batch of chickens, ducks, breeding sheep and dogs would be purchased, and two acres of wasteland behind the house would be rented as a breeding base.

This month, several main players and my uncle will train all day for a month, and use their rest time to study. They will temporarily stop farm work and hand it over to the newly recruited players. This will cost an estimated 30 or 40 yuan. The rest of the funds will be used to organize a caravan in the spring of next year to purchase goods for business capital.

On the fourth day of the Chinese New Year, my father and Hu Laosi went to the town to recruit three people, two from the local area. They could not recruit all local people. If there were too many local people, they would be related to each other and it would be easy for the news to leak out. The others were trained by He Cunyi. My grandfather paid Yu Yuedong 3 yuan in rent, and the two acres of wasteland behind the left house became theirs. In order to keep the training secret, they chose a relatively flat area of ​​2 square meters and surrounded it with fences on all sides as the training ground in the future.

After Du Chenyu arranged everything, he had nothing to do. He accompanied Yaya to write, while his grandmother was in charge of herding the cattle and two lambs, and the rest of the people were developing the new land behind the house that they had rented at a high price. The contract was five years, and the pay was four dollars in the first year. The rest of the year would depend on the market conditions, and they could raise the price whenever they wanted.

On the third day, my father brought back three people, all of whom were locals from Wuyingbao. Two of them were relatively tall and walked very agilely, in their 20s, one was called Wang Quan, and the other was called Wu Huacheng. The other was a little shorter, about 17 or 18 years old, Tang Zhihao, a clerk in the Wang family store in the town. He was down-to-earth and good at talking and calculating. He used to come from a well-off family and went to school for 4-5 years. Later, his father died unexpectedly and the family fell into decline. His father paid him 3 yuan and promised to give him two acres of land for his family to farm as long as he did a good job. Only then did he agree to switch to a new employer. Although the previous employer treated him poorly, he gave him an apprenticeship when his family was in the most difficult time, which allowed him to survive and get some wages. He was very grateful.

These people were selected. My father said that they put up a sign and more than 10 people signed up. In the end, two were selected. They were both capable, could read a few words, and were physically strong. He took a look and found that all three of them were very good, so he tried his best to train them into a team member.

Farmers have no idle days. My grandmothers and their family also built a few thatched houses on the newly rented land, which is only a hundred meters away from their home. My grandparents are mainly responsible for raising cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks at home, and my aunt helps my mother cook and make clothes.

Time speeds up its pace in the spring breeze. Plum blossoms are always competitive. A few spring breezes make them smile and attract bees to fly everywhere. Cherry blossoms always come quietly, along the river at the end of January. The wild cherry trees on the mountain cover the mountain with white wedding dresses overnight. They are always silent, but swift and passionate. Peach blossoms are different. After the cherry blossoms bloom, they bloom vigorously, riding on the spring breeze and rain, announcing to the world, I am here, the beautiful spring girl is here, "Three or two branches of peach blossoms outside the bamboo, the ducks know the spring river water is warm first", this is the harbinger of spring. Its arrival means that the farmers' spring ploughing and planting preparations have officially begun.

In early February, after the Dragon Raising its Head, it was already March in the Gregorian calendar. After a month of full-time training, Hu Laosi, Hu Laowu, He Cunyi, Li Long, Zhao Zhengming, and Second Uncle finally looked like soldiers. Except for Hu Laowu who weighed only 3 kilograms, the rest all weighed over 90 kilograms. They ate meat once every three days during this month, while other ordinary personnel had meat once every 10 days.

After the team reorganization, Hu Laosi was appointed as the captain of the armor team 1, and the original team members remained. Tang Zhihao was included in the team as a reserve member, responsible for daily team learning, logistics services, including cooking, and completing tasks with the team. The team was responsible for operating shops, outbound missions, and purchasing supplies.

He Cunyi is the captain of the second armor team. His team members include Wang Quan, Wu Huacheng, Zhao Rui, his elder uncle Chen Ping, his younger uncle Chen Bo, and Huang Kunyang, a new recruit in the company and a former student of his father. The team is responsible for daily family agricultural production and training.

My father will still continue teaching and will be responsible for liaison with all parties. Du Chenyu will be responsible for overall arrangements. My grandfather will be mainly responsible for opium poppy matters. This work is currently highly confidential, with more than 10 people each responsible for their own duties.

In mid-March of the Gregorian calendar, Hu Laosi led his team along the Mi Cang Road to Nanzheng County in Hanzhong. The prices there were cheap, and they bought cloth and salt worth more than 3 yuan. Most importantly, they also brought back several kilograms of rice seeds. This year, they tried to plant new varieties. The altitude of Hanzhong is similar to theirs. At the end of March, they went out hunting again. The two guns were very effective. They caught two wild boars, one pig, and several pheasants. They sold one wild boar and kept the rest for themselves.

In April, during the spring planting season, a group of hunters came back and started to work on the farm. This year, the corn was transplanted using a new method. They left empty bags between the wheat and potato fields, planted corn around them, and poppies in the middle. Grandpa and my second uncle were in charge. The other dozen or so people cleaned up the few acres of land that had been cleared last year and this year, burned them, and then planted corn.

At the beginning of May, the weather gradually became hotter. It took 5 mu of wheat to harvest, at least more than 5 kilograms, and the yield increased by 30% compared with before.

All the members of the first team returned to the team. He Cunyi and his uncle followed the first team. Huang Kunyang was in charge of the housework and took him with him to prepare for the mission. Everyone had their legs tied, each person had 10 jin of food, a machete, a cloak and a raincoat, and two muskets. The second uncle was responsible for carrying him. Everything was ready. After breakfast at five o'clock the next morning, they set off immediately.

The wilderness survival training began. They crossed Huodi Pass that day and came to the primeval forest at the junction of Sichuan and Shaanxi. They went out hunting several times and were very familiar with life in the wild. They built shelters, made fires and cooked together. He now ate with everyone and no longer cooked alone. After dinner, they gathered around the fire and sang the song he had copied: "Unity is Strength" and the military song - "Forward. Forward our team towards the sun". They also discussed precautions for survival in the wild, how to prevent sneak attacks, how to prevent fires and mudslides, and thought together. At night, they set up shifts on duty, and everyone spread out their straw raincoats to sleep, with Du Chenyu sleeping in the middle.

After daybreak, it started to drizzle. After lunch, except for his second uncle who was left to take care of him, the others went into the mountains to hunt. With a few gunshots, they brought back two golden pheasants and some fungus and wild vegetables. In the evening, they stewed the golden pheasants with fungus and wild vegetables in a pot of soup. Three days passed like this, and the harvest was not great. There was only one wild boar and a few pheasants and golden pheasants. During hunting, Du Chenyu taught everyone how to communicate using simple gestures and how to hide. There were also subjects in daily training, but if they were not used in the mission, the effect would be very poor.

On the fourth day, they decided to head north into Shaanxi. After crossing a mountain ridge, they saw people living at the foot of the mountain. They ran down the mountain and found out that this was the jurisdiction of Huangguan Town. They ran all the way to the town and arrived at noon. Huangguan is a relatively large town. The market town area is twice the size of Wuying Township and the population is much denser. They found an open space and put the game and wild boar on a wooden board, ready to sell. The price of these goods is a little cheaper than pork. A wild boar weighing 60-70 kilograms will soon be gone.

There was chaos at this time, and many people began to pack up their stalls. It turned out that there were four militiamen coming out to collect taxes, one was responsible for collecting money and one was responsible for keeping accounts; the other two held guns, one walked in front and the other walked behind. All the vendors dispersed, and they also packed the meat, packed up their stalls and left. The doors of the shops would be smashed open when they were closed, so the shops were open as usual. They came to this end of the street and prepared to eat a bowl of noodles. Du Chenyu watched the militiamen coming all the way. The shops were generally cooperative and took the initiative to pay. He had earned at least 4-40 oceans along the way.

He walked to Hu Laosi, asked Hu Laosi to hold him, and sat in a corner to eat noodles.

"Fourth brother, do you have any ideas? Two rifles and a bag of dollars," he whispered.

"This is a street with lots of people coming and going. It's very dangerous. How can we escape?"

"This is my plan...do you dare to do it?" he finished quietly.

"What is there to be afraid of? Young master, you are not afraid, so there is nothing I should be afraid of. Let my second brother carry you on his back and wait for us on the street. Once we succeed, we will run away immediately. Anyone who stops us will be killed without mercy," said Hu Laosi decisively.

After finishing the noodles in a few bites, Hu Laosi assigned tasks one by one. He and He Cunyi shot and killed the two men with guns. The uncle and Li Long chopped the other two people with one fatal blow. Hu Laowu and Zhao Zhengming warned others not to help, and anyone who obstructed would be chopped down.

After the arrangements were completed, his second uncle carried him and Zhao Zhenghao on his back and waited on the street. He asked Zhao Zhenghao to throw away the two iron pots as he could not run with them on his back.

They were ready in five minutes. They wrapped their weapons tightly with cloth and used them as shoulder poles or crutches. They scattered and pretended to be busy with business and slowly surrounded them from all sides. At the door of a grain store, Hu Laosi and his uncle pretended to buy grain. This was the next store they would collect taxes from, and they were waiting here.

"Boss Zhu, your business is booming," the militiaman with a gun who was leading the way in front greeted him first. Now he put the gun on his back and walked towards this side.

Hu Laosi raised the gun in his hand, glanced around, and when he retracted it, he pushed the cloth bag upwards to expose the butt and trigger. He raised his hand and fired. He didn't need to aim at a distance of five or six meters.

"Bang... bang..." After two sounds, the two men fell down. Li Long and his uncle also used the back of their machetes to hit the other two men, "Ah...ah..." screams came one after another. Hu Laowu also helped to snatch the bag of dollars. It took less than 5 seconds from shooting to snatching the gun, and they succeeded.

"Retreat," Hu Laosi shouted, and everyone started running. Seeing this, they also started running ahead of time, with the second uncle leading the way, running along the same route they came.

Huangguan Town is located on the edge of the Hanzhong Plain, with a river valley in the middle, which is very flat. This is not conducive to retreat, and they will be caught up soon if they ride horses. After half an hour, seeing that there was no one around, Du Chenyu suggested to immediately go into the forest on the right and follow the same path as before. After an hour, no one was chasing them, so it seemed safe. Without stopping, they arrived at the place where they had camped last night when it was getting dark. The worst thing was that they could not cook without a pot, so they could only make a fire and grill meat and tortillas on the stone slabs.

After they were safe, they took out the two rifles. Both rifles were wrapped in a metal tube, which was the famous "old sleeve" made in Hanyang. Only Hu Laosi grabbed the bullet bag, and He Cunyi forgot to search the bullet bag. There were only 5 bullets in the bullet bag, and the total of 25 bullets was a little less. After some exploration and his guidance, Hu Laosi fired the first shot, and the low sound sounded particularly beautiful. There were also copper coins, silver coins, and about 48 silver coins.

The next afternoon, they arrived at Taoyuan Town in Jizhou County, an important town on the Micang Road. They sent Tang Zhihao in disguise to the town to inquire about the news. It was necessary to purchase some things, salt and pots.

Tang Zhihao came back and said that no one had discussed what happened yesterday, and everything was normal. It was already mid-May when they returned home. On the way, they shot a muntjac, a badger, and most importantly, a black bear. They had encountered a bear before, but with only one gun, they could only watch it run away. This time, with four guns in hand, the black bear was killed on the spot. Although the bear was not yet an adult, it weighed more than 5 kilograms.

They carried the bear home overnight and walked directly along the main road without hiding. They now had two rifles and three muskets, so they didn't need to hide too much and moved quickly along the way.
