Reborn in Changbai Mountain, I rely on my divine eyes to dig ginseng and hunt

"Come on, I'll go kill the roe deer and we'll prepare to make dumplings."

Everyone makes dumplings for free, but only Liu Xia Lian's family would be willing to eat them this way.

Li Damei went to call Daya and Erya. They have been very busy these days and they are probably sleeping at home today.

When Liu Xia Lian was bringing the gutted roe deer back from the creek, she happened to meet Xu Shiba who was bringing some beans over.

"Sister Xia Lian, your sister Guilan just came home from the hospital today, and I came here specially to thank you. I will pay you back the 240 yuan I borrowed from you last time as soon as possible. These are some beans at home, they are old and the seeds are very soft, you can keep them for yourself."

"Brother Xu, that's very polite. Let's go. We just caught up. Come to my house and make dumplings. I also went to the forest farm today and picked up a roe deer on the way back."

Xu Shiba shook his head repeatedly: "No, no, no, that's embarrassing, I won't go."

Liu Xialian picked up a kitchen knife and cut off a roe deer leg: "Sister-in-law Guilan has just been discharged from the hospital. She can't do without adequate nutrition. You can take it back and give it to her and her children to improve their lives."

Xu Shiba took the roe deer leg and was so excited that he was speechless. This was only possible if it was a woman. If it was a man, he would have become sworn brothers with her on the spot. He was so righteous, so damn righteous.

"Brother Xu, I plan to go into the mountains in the next two days to look for a big club. I thought you've been to the Greater Khingan Range, so why not come with us?"

"Okay, no problem, two or three days is fine, there are people at home to take care of it."

"Well, the salary is the same as Li Damei's, two dollars a day. If the things collected on that day exceed one hundred dollars, I will give you a 5% commission."

"Don't mention money. I won't go if you give me money." Xu Shiba happily went back with the roe deer leg.

The wife was lying on the kang when she saw Xu Shiba coming back with a piece of meat. She asked, "Old Xu, where did you get the money to buy meat?"

"I just went to Liu Xialian's house to give her some oil beans. She cut a roe deer leg for me. Her team will go into the mountains in a few days, so she asked me to go with them."

"Go ahead. You have to repay the favor. Get some potatoes. We'll have roe deer meat and potatoes tonight. You haven't had meat for half a year."

When the four children saw the meat, their mouths watered and they ran out singing and dancing.

Guilan was also very happy while lying on the bed: "Get well soon. When I get better, we can make money together to pay off the debt."

Liu Xialian's home was bustling with activity. Her mother was chopping meat with two knives. There were no meat grinders in those days, so the meat had to be chopped by hand. Her eldest sister was originally chopping cabbage, but little Xinyue woke up and cried for milk, so she had to go and feed the child.

Fortunately, Li Damei is back. She is a good cook and making dumpling fillings is a piece of cake for her.

Da Ya and Er Ya also changed into the new clothes that Liu Xia Lian bought for them. They were well-fitting and clean. It was obvious that the two of them had taken a shower, as they still smelled of soap.

Erya was drooling as she looked at the dumpling fillings. Daya was worried that Erya would make a fool of herself, so she pulled her aside and said, "Come on, you go chop some firewood, and I'll go to the kitchen to light the fire."

The village uses a large iron pot and a wood stove to cook dumplings. The pot can hold fifty or sixty kilograms of water, and it takes a lot of time to light the fire.

We started work at 4pm, and it was already 7pm when we ate dumplings. The room was filled with laughter. The dumplings with roe deer meat and cabbage heart were really delicious. Da Ya and Er Ya each ate three bowls, and the others each ate two bowls. It was a pity that they made more, otherwise there wouldn't be enough to eat.

Daya and Erya followed Li Damei back home, and Liu Xialian slept at home tonight. The three mothers chatted at night, and Liu Xialian asked her eldest sister: "Dad said today that your husband spent several hundred yuan to buy an old yard and is repairing it. You should go back after the repair is completed."

"I've gained a lot of weight in the past few days. It's time to go back."

"Your mother-in-law is a bad-tempered woman. She will still bully you when you go back. You have to change your temper. I don't ask you to bully others, but at least you can't be bullied. I found a good way to make money today. You can make hundreds of dollars a year. If you raise some chickens and ducks, won't your life be fine?"

"Really? What's the way? Tell me."

"Zhangjiatun is a big village. If you help me collect mountain products, I will provide the capital. I will give you a few cents to a dime per kilogram of mountain products. This way you don't have to invest or take risks, and you can make a net profit of dozens of yuan every month. You can raise a few hundred chickens in the yard and make a lot of money by selling eggs and chickens."

The eldest sister was stunned: "Third sister, did you say it wrong, or did I hear it wrong? Raise hundreds of chickens? Sell chickens and eggs?"

"No, what's wrong?"

"Isn't the risk a bit too high? It's okay to raise thirty or twenty, but if I raise more, will people think I'm a capitalist?"

"We need to be open-minded. Now people in the south are starting to sell home appliances and open shopping malls. We are still relatively backward. Eggs are a must-have for every household. The market is large, grain is cheap, and the cost of raising free-range chickens is low. If you manage them well, you can just wait and count the money."

My mother was a little worried: "Will we be able to sell so many?"

"Population, population, our country has a large population. There are hundreds of thousands of people in county towns, millions in urban areas, and tens of millions in big cities. You can't raise chickens, ducks, and geese in the city, but you have to eat eggs, and that costs money, right? An egg costs 1.5 cents, which is almost as much as a pound of corn. We have a lot of grain, and it's not worth much. Raising chickens to lay eggs is a long-term business that doesn't require too much time."

"Hearing you say that, I'm also very excited. We can raise a hundred or eighty chickens in our backyard. Raise wild boars in the old yard and chickens in our yard. We will have eggs to eat every day in the future. How wonderful life will be." Mother was intoxicated and began to yearn for life after raising chickens.

There was no conversation that night. At dawn in the morning, Liu Xialian, carrying her 98k and her hunting dog Dahuang, came to the red pine forest north of the village alone. Yesterday at dinner time, Li Damei, Daya and Erya were given a day off to rest and set off into the mountains the day after tomorrow. Because her brother-in-law Zhang Wang was coming to pick up her eldest sister today, Liu Xialian and her mother wanted to go with them to take a look. If the house after the division was okay, she would let her eldest sister stay, if not, she would take her back. In short, she couldn't let that old woman bully her eldest sister again.

Liu Xialian touched Da Huang's head and instructed him: "After entering the forest, you must stay beside me and don't go too far. There are wild boars, leopards, black bears, etc. here. They are all very dangerous."

Da Huang shook his big head to show that he understood, then ran in front of Liu Xia Lian, scouting around and raising his legs from time to time to mark his territory.

There are red pine trees on the mountain to the north of the village. The forests cover the whole mountain, mainly red pine. People in the village who go hiking especially like to come here. There are all kinds of wild vegetables in spring and various medicinal materials such as mushrooms, ginseng, Eleutherococcus senticosus, motherwort, etc. in summer.
