My 1995 Small Farm

   Chapter 335 The temptation of the wolf, the deer trail

   The snow the night before yesterday was not very heavy, but the impact was not small.

   Mainly because the temperature in the mountains suddenly dropped too hard, and birds and small beasts went out for food one after another.

   Taking advantage of this perfect hunting opportunity, Heiwa was busy again.

   After receiving permission from Chen Ling, he stayed in the mountains for three consecutive days to store food for the she-wolves.

   Before that, when there was nothing at home, Heiwa would go into the mountains from time to time to help the she-wolf hunt.

   Let Chen Ling directly say that the temptation of the female wolf is too great, and let Heiwa run into the mountains every day.

   This is of course a joke.

   In fact, he himself felt that it was too troublesome and tiring for Heiwa to do this.

   Therefore, during the three days that Heiwa stayed in the mountains, he drove a tractor to various markets, wandered around the slaughterhouses in various counties and towns, and brought back some unwanted meat.

  After all, after entering the twelfth lunar month, there are more cooked meats sold, such as chickens, ducks, geese, pigs, cattle and sheep, rabbits, all kinds of head and hooves, bones, and they can be picked up very cheaply.

   Especially chicken intestines and duck intestines, no one wants them now.

   The so-called Zhou Hei Duck has never existed, and everyone still thinks these are slapped meat, not serious meat.

  Chen Ling pulls a little everywhere every day, and he can almost fill the tractor body.

   After that, he was put into the cave and waited to go to the mountains to feed the wolves.

   However, Chen Ling only went there once recently to find Heiwa to come back.

   is a good meal for those wolves.

   The female wolf after feeding is quite thin and skinny, and the wolf milk packs are all deflated and drooping, like two rows of black buttons.

   There is no way to do that.

  Wolf pack female wolves are pregnant collectively.

  The cubs need to drink milk, and the nutritional requirements of the female wolf are extremely high, otherwise the milk will be insufficient.

   Therefore, each female wolf also has a great demand for food.

  The male wolf of the wolf pack is simply not satisfied.

  Although Heiwa often came into the mountains to help, it didn't help in the long run.

   Winter is too hard.

   This is true for both herbivorous wild animals and carnivorous predators.

  This pack of wolves didn't have to nurse their cubs this winter.

   It's because Heiwa was too powerful, and made the main force of the wolf pack pregnant.

Then there's no way.

  Heiwa can only do what he has done by himself, and bear it by himself.

  Chen Ling, the parent, helped him deal with the aftermath.

   fed the wolves a full meal.

  The wolf cubs in the wolf cave are now weaned and eat some minced meat.

   consumes nearly three hundred catties of meat in one meal.

  The rest of the meat was also put into the wolf cave.

   Since then, at least half a month later, you don't have to worry about them anymore.

  …

  The fourth day of the twelfth lunar month.

   The day after Chen Ling went into the mountain to feed the wolves.

  The first snow melted, and he found the footprints of two or three kinds of prey one after another around his farm.

   There are deer footprints, pheasant footprints, and messy marks like raccoons.

   But I haven't checked it out and set up the corresponding traps.

   A guest came to the farm that surprised him.

   This person is none other than Liu Jiancheng, the original owner of the Chen Ling family's small courtyard in the south of the city.

   This Liu Jiancheng's intention is also very simple.

  The last time he brought his children to the farm to play, he found out that Chen Ling was a capable young man with a wide network of contacts, so he wanted to keep a friendship, so he bought all the eggs and ducks from the farm.

   said it was brought to friends in the city.

   Of course, he bought so much that he couldn’t eat it himself, it was indeed a gift.

   But he felt that he couldn't take out the soil egg, so it was not a leader.

   Just some subordinates, and ordinary friends.

   But what I didn’t expect was that after it was sent out, people were full of praise.

   Even the leader who accidentally ate these eggs and duck eggs, after learning that he gave them, blamed him a lot, blaming him for not giving them to himself, which made him feel quite wronged.

   No, as soon as I came back to my hometown, I went straight to the farm.

"Fugui brothers, your duck eggs are the best to make salted duck eggs. All of them are sandy and oily, and they are red. It's called a fragrant. As for this egg, it's best to make a steamed egg, scoop a spoonful and put it in your mouth, Ouch, that's delicious, I really don't know how to describe it."

  Chen Ling led him to pick up eggs.

   The little man followed behind him for a while, even though he had thick lips, he spoke really fast, and gestured with his hands, the more he spoke, the more excited he became.

   "Brother, don't blame me for talking too much, I feel like it's a bit of a waste of you to farm in the village.

  Really, I'm telling the truth, our hometown is better than me, there is too little communication with the outside world, and it is too backward. You are really too talented here.

  If you move this farm out, even if it is on the outskirts of the city, I think the business will definitely be bigger than it is now. "

  Chen Ling only smiled when he heard the words. I don't know how many people have said this to him, and his ears are getting calluses.

  Unfortunately, he is not that kind of person.

   And after two lifetimes, I’ve already understood it.

   People like him still have a childlike innocence deep in their hearts, they don't like restraint, and they like the life of idle clouds and wild cranes.

   Wang Xuecheng, the youngest son of Wang Jukun's family, talked to Chen Ling a while ago.

   When they were children, they played together and went to the mountains to catch birds.

  Because it was getting dark after going up the mountain, Wang Xuecheng was afraid of going home and being beaten, so he kept yelling to go back, so Chen Ling didn't catch a bird in the end.

  Xiao Chenling was so furious at the time that he pushed Wang Xuecheng two somersaults and ran down the mountain by himself.

   Chen Ling had long forgotten about this.

   But after hearing Wang Xuecheng talk about it, although he still couldn't remember it, he immediately knew that Wang Xuecheng didn't tell a lie.

   Because that's what he can do.

   He would lose his temper just for a bird, a pretty little fish.

   When he was in high school, after coming home from vacation, he was still thinking about catching fish and catching birds.

  The flowers, birds, insects and fish around Chenwangzhuang have been played by him.

   still enjoy it.

  He is just like that.

   Even Wang Susu said that when he talks about these things, his eyes are bright, which shows that he really likes it.

Seeing Chen Ling just laughing and not speaking, Liu Jiancheng was a little unsure of his temper, but he still followed his own thoughts and said, "It's really not good, you don't want to run out, you pickle these eggs and duck eggs into salt. Eggs, this should be fine, right?

  This raw egg, I kept half of it for my parents last time, and the rest was brought to the city. It was broken a lot on the way. It is still pickled into salted eggs for easy portability. Salted eggs are also delicious. "

"what?"

  Chen Ling was stunned for a moment, looked up at him, and smiled: "This one, pickled into salted eggs, also saves me from taking the county to sell it."

  Liu Jiancheng was a little speechless for a while, thinking that you just thought about saving troubles, didn't you understand the business opportunities in my words?

   Then he told Chen Ling plainly that many people in the city like to eat his salted duck eggs.

  The salted egg is a little worse, but it’s not impossible, at least the salted egg in his family tastes better than others, that’s for sure.

Who knows, Chen Ling didn't care much after hearing it, he waved his hand and said, "Hey, it's simple, you can take these eggs as a gift first. When you want salted eggs, send a letter in advance, you can write to me, It's okay to have someone send a message, isn't your daughter in the same class as my sister-in-law?"

   When Liu Jiancheng heard this, he didn't care about Chen Ling's attitude anymore, and immediately said with a smile: "That's alright, when I leave after the new year, I will pay more attention. Can you prepare it now?"

   He also knew that in winter, chickens and ducks don't lay eggs much.

  Chen Ling just said that there is no problem with this, he can prepare it and let him pick it up later in the year.

  Staying at home and doing business without going out, he is also happy.

   These people gave gifts before the year, and they will also give gifts after the year.

  After Liu Jiancheng left, that afternoon, Sun Yanhong also came to ask, to see if there was any brewed wine.

   The wine she gave out before had a very good response, and now that the end of the year is approaching, she also wants to give it again that year.

   "Come at this time, you really came right." Chen Ling got up and led her to the barn behind the farm.

  Because at this time wine, kiwi wine, persimmon wine and other autumn wild fruit wines are all brewed.

  Although there is a huge gap between the price and the so-called medicinal liquor, this can also be regarded as an income at the end of the year.

   is also an income that you can have without leaving your home.

  Chen Ling walked back, and the little fat dogs in the kennel at the back came out of the kennel in unison, jumping and jumping around him, sticking to his trousers at his feet.

   These little guys are getting fatter and fatter, and they can be more than half fatter than the little cubs in the wolf den. No wonder Chen Ling calls them little fat dogs all day long.

   "Good guy, Fugui, your dog has a puppy?"

When Sun Yanhong saw these little guys, she immediately stopped and looked at the little fat dogs. Me two?"

   She had known for a long time that the two dogs of Chen Ling's family were powerful. Now that there are puppies, there is no reason to let them go.

   She also understood that Chen Ling did not have a good opinion of her, so she directly stated that she wanted to spend money to buy it.

   "If you don't sell it, you can't keep this dog."

  Chen Ling didn't explain much to her, and gently kicked away the little fat dogs that surrounded her feet.

   Seeing that she still wanted to ask, he said: "Now there are only a few kinds of wild fruit wines ready to be brewed, you can pick and choose. The first batch of medicinal wines will have to wait until Qingming next year."

   "Yeah, you still have this medicinal wine in batches? Can't you release one piece and sell it?" Sun Yanhong was puzzled, it's incredible to be able to drink it and sell it for money, why are you so rigid.

   "That won't work, herbal medicinal liquors are different from others."

  Chen Ling shook his head, there is a big difference between plant-based and animal-based medicinal wines.

   For example, musk, which could have been sold as gold.

   He also learned to make wine with his father-in-law. This musk wine will only work well by this time next winter, but it won't work if the time is short.

   "Okay, then I'll pick some fruit wine first."

  Sun Yanhong was a little disappointed, she gathered her curls like a bird's nest that was hot, and started to follow Chen Ling to open the jar and taste the fruit wine one after another.

   In her opinion, these fruit wines are the best gifts for summer.

   In winter, it is better to drink medicinal wine to warm up.

   And after drinking and sleeping, you can nourish your body, wake up and feel comfortable, and the gift-giving effect is also achieved.

   But unfortunately, not now.

   But Chen Ling's wine didn't disappoint her too much.

  For example, the seemingly ordinary Baogu wine and the drunken plum wine in Chen Ling's mouth surprised her very much.

   "These two wines are good, I want more."

  Sun Yanhong pointed to the two large wine jars and glanced around: "For those other fruit wines, I'll just have two jars of each."

"Row."

Chen Ling nodded and said, "But I can remind you that Baogu wine is at a normal price, and drunk plum wine is precious. It is a new variety of fruit trees just discovered by two great professors this fall, Qinling drunk plum, which is used to make wine. , that stuff is rare."

   "It's okay, I'm not afraid of your high price. I'm going to buy your wine, and I'm ready to let your kid slaughter it."

  Sun Yanhong smiled at him and didn't care.

  In this case, Chen Ling has nothing to say, he can sell it anyway.

   "Looks like Sister Hong, you've earned a lot from pigs this year?"

   "Hmph, if you earn less, don't you have to come to send you money if you earn less?"

  Sun Yanhong's business does not stop until the end of the year, and she collects pigs everywhere, but she is the boss, and she doesn't need to work except when she is busy.

   But even so, he is not more chic than Chen Ling.

  Selling and selling wine casually is another 10,000 yuan.

The Chinese New Year is approaching. Sun Yanhong is an old customer. She sends him a lot of money. Chen Ling is also very pleasant. When she sent her out, she said, "Would you like quails? I also eat quails during the Chinese New Year. I'll give you a few."

   "Yes, why not, it's rare for you to be generous."

  Chen Ling caught a few for her and sent them to the car. "My quail is delicious when fried. After killing it, just put it in the oil pan and fry it."

  Sun Yanhong snorted and smiled: "Understood, I will send you a message for your attitude this time..."

   Then he stuck his head out of the car and muttered softly.

   After a while, Chen Ling watched her leave and said to Wang Susu, who came out with the child in her arms, "This mother-in-law is really capable, but she said it was too late, I already knew about it."

   "What did I tell you? Wouldn't it be about the tomb robber?"

   "Well, that's all, we're still a gang here."

  Chen Ling took his son into his arms, "Let's go, go home and count the money."

  Wang Susu glanced at him and smiled lightly. She had already settled this year's accounts, but she didn't expect that it was approaching the end of the year, and she came to buy and sell again.

  Egg sellers and wine sellers are credited with 10,000 yuan.
