Mountain driving career since 1982

Zhang Shaofeng was shining his flashlight on the front of the river. Raymond was sitting in the cabin, staring at the front with his gun, while Zhao Yongke and Liang Kangbo were guarding the rear with their guns. The dogs couldn't adapt to the shaking of the boat, so they cleverly lay down. , like riding in a car.

Lu Lu rowed the oars hard, and the boat went very fast down the river.

The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and turbid mountain water was already flowing down the ravine and flowing into the river.

Several people had already become drowned rats, and even the roe deer skin hunting clothes on their bodies were completely soaked.

About half an hour later, Lu Lu estimated that he was at least twenty miles away. He rowed the boat to the shore: "We're here, let's go ashore!"

Zhang Shaofeng and others jumped into the shallow water and landed. The box in the boat was also moved down. There was also a military backpack. Zhang Shaofeng opened it and looked at it. There were wine and cans in it.

After several people came ashore, Lu Lu pulled out his hunting knife and dug a hole in the bottom of the cabin. Several people moved some stones from the river bank and put them into the cabin.

After Lu Lu pushed the boat into the middle of the river, the boat sank quickly.

After the work was done, Lu Lu opened the wooden box again, which contained four gold bricks and some large and small gold bars.

Each of these gold bricks weighs between twelve and thirteen kilograms, and has information such as number, grade, stamp, precise weight and year of production.

Most of the gold circulating on the market is small gold bars of various types ranging from one gram to one kilogram, and right now these are all long trapezoidal gold bricks. With such a large volume, Lu Lu can only think of reserve gold bricks. Usually It will not be circulated in the market.

Although it only looks like four pieces, it weighs more than 99.95 kilograms, and its purity is above [-].

Just such a gold brick will cost at least thirty to four million in future generations.

No wonder Zhao Yongke found it difficult to move the box alone.

"It's too hard for one person to carry these things. Let's each put a gold brick in the bag. I'll take these bits and pieces. Let's go quickly!"

Lu Lu said, put down the hunting bag, picked up the scattered small gold bars one by one, and put them under the hunting bag. These small gold bars also had the same logo. There were more than ten large and small pieces, which were quite heavy.

Zhang Shaofeng and others also each took a gold brick and put it in their hunting bags.

After the box was empty, Lu Lu put stones in it and fastened it, and threw the small box into the river.

Afterwards, he wiped the rain off his face. After such a long time, the soaked people were already freezing. But now, they didn't dare to stop.

A few people lowered their flashlight lights and quietly turned northwest along a creek that merged into the river.

As hunters, they all know that rivers are the best place to hide their tracks. Even with bloodhounds, they can't smell the scent through the water, let alone on such a rainy night.

In this way, a few people walked until dawn.

The rain turned to drizzle again, and the mountains were covered with mist.

"Let's find a place to rest. It's difficult to identify the direction in this weather. Let's walk randomly. The mountains are too big. Sometimes our efforts will be in vain!" Zhang Shaofeng suggested.

Lu Lu nodded: "Find a place that can shelter from the rain, light a fire, and dry your clothes quickly, otherwise, you may get sick."

As he spoke, he took out the military backpack containing food. There were three bottles of brandy in it, which were all highly distilled spirits. Lu Lu opened the lids and handed them to several people.

Each of them took a sip, and the hot drink went into his throat and went down into his abdomen. Stimulated by the heat, several people couldn't help but perk up. They passed the bottle to each other and drank a bottle of wine. .

Next, they began to search for a place to stay in the mountains.

After spending more than half an hour, several people found a cave under the cliff in the mountain. They immediately walked over and checked that there was nothing wrong. Then they found firewood at the entrance of the cave and built a fire.

It was very cold outside, and I didn’t dare to take off my wet hunting clothes, so I just put them on to bake.

Last night, the one who suffered the most was Liang Kangbo. Everyone else had gone to bed in the middle of the night, but he had not closed his eyes yet. At this time, he was sitting by the fire, roasting, and his body was steaming. After getting warm, he couldn't bear it. He dozed off.

Lu Lu rummaged through the military backpack and found that it contained some biscuits and chocolates, as well as some canned meat stews and ready-to-eat porridge... These were all combat rations, and he brought a lot of them.

From the looks of it, those three guys were already prepared to wander into the mountains and forests in case of emergencies.

This was convenient for Lu Lu and others. He opened the cans one by one, placed them by the fire to warm, and distributed the biscuits and chocolates to several people.

Fill your stomach with these novel flavors. There is no dry food on the mountain. A few people don't care about Sanqi 21. Lu Lu and Zhao Yongke are guarding it. They just lie down on the ground to rest, at least the ground at the entrance of the cave. It's dry.

In the afternoon, the rain finally stopped. As the mountain breeze blew, the sun gradually emerged again. There were no clouds to cover the fog, so Lu Lu could only choose to put out the fire temporarily.

He didn't plan to leave today, so he was just going to rest here for the day. The wet mountains would easily leave traces and get his clothes wet, which would be very uncomfortable.

From sleeping in the morning to now, Liang Kangbo, Lei Meng, Zhang Shaofeng and others have all woken up. While they were resting, Lu Lu led the dogs around, beat some small animals, fed them, and also beat them. Bring some back and bake them at night.

In this way, they spent another night in the cave. With this period of rest, several people felt like they were alive again.

There has been no abnormal situation, and everyone feels a little relieved.

Early the next morning, as the sun just emerged, the group had a quick bite to eat and continued on the road.

With the sun shining yesterday afternoon, the biggest advantage is that there are no longer raindrops on the branches, leaves and weeds of the forest.

In fact, the forest is not particularly humid. The thick humus soil is only wet on the surface, while the forest soil below is still dry.

It is difficult for rainwater to penetrate the humus layer, and it takes time.

Several people lined up with sticks and searched in the mountains.

Zhang Shaofeng saw another piece of reed. Although the ginseng seeds had already fallen out, it was still so conspicuous, especially the largest one, which had four reed heads. The stems were thick and grew directly into a cluster. Even the leaves Withered and yellow, it is still so ostentatious.Looking around again, there are three more six-grade leaves. Looking around and counting, there are sixteen or seventeen five-grade leaves.

Lu Lu couldn't bear to dig out the largest tree with a short hoe, but carefully used a deer bone stick to dig it out. After lifting it out, it was estimated to be close to half a catty.

The five people also took action and lifted out all the sticks with fourth-grade leaves and above that were scattered on the large hillside. It took half a day to get sixty or seventy seedlings.

Faced with such a situation, several people were already numb.

There is no such excitement as when I first came to Laoye Ridge and saw the piles of sticks.

After these days, I already feel that this is a normal thing.

The mallets alone are enough to fill a bag.

Carrying a stick in Laoye Ridge is as simple as that.

In this way, three days passed unknowingly, and the mallets in each bag were filled with hundreds of seedlings. Plus gold bricks, each person carried at least sixty or seventy kilograms of stuff.

Maybe this weight is not heavy on weekdays, but on a long journey in the mountains, carrying ten kilograms of stuff can be very tiring.

"That's it for this time. Let's not delay any longer and find a way to go back. After three days, there has been nothing unusual around us, and it is estimated that no one is eyeing us, so we can leave with confidence.

The mallets we have now are enough for Wei Chunan and the others to use for a while. No matter how many things there are, we can't take them away. This time, let alone the mallets hidden away, they are just gold bricks in our pockets. We will also make a lot of money. Got it! "

During the break, Lu Lu said with a smile.

"I can't bear it anymore... Now, every time I sit down, I want to close my eyes and have a peaceful sleep!" Liang Kangbo sighed longly.

"Me too, I'm starting to miss my wife and son at home!" Zhang Shaofeng also said.

I am highly stressed and exhausted every day.

Seeing the exhausted looks on their faces, Lu Lu didn't say anything more, but just thought to himself: Such a good opportunity only lasts a year or two.

In fact, now, Lu Lu himself has the idea of ​​​​stopping this adventurous life.

By guarding the accumulated wealth, running the family farm well, and running the purchasing station and handicraft processing factory, the annual income can be quite good.

As long as he is willing, whether it is sika deer, wild geese, flying dragons, forest frogs, deer or honey, these things can actually be opened into a company.

Even if all these are gone, keeping the two courtyards in the capital and the gold and sticks at home are enough to live a stable life.

There is endless money to be made, and it seems that Chen Xiuyu has always been worried in the past few years...

Maybe, it's time to let go early.

As far as crossing the border was concerned, he knew from the bottom of his heart that this was a very dangerous thing. Once caught, it would be easy to return to the pre-liberation period.

He still feels that he is greedy!
This is just like in the business world in my previous life. When I earned 100, I thought about whether I could earn 100 million. After I got 1000 million, I started thinking about whether I could earn [-] million or even [-] million...

The ravines in people's hearts cannot be filled, and there are too many pitfalls in the world!

We often take every precaution, but in the end, if we make one mistake, we will fall into the abyss of eternal destruction... Is it worth it?
"Is it time to let it go?"

Lu Lu began to ask himself.

Thinking about getting to Mao Zi and calculating the prey, the mallet, and the rumored missing gold, Lu Lu suddenly felt that he was overthinking.

The prey and the stick were fine, but the gold, how many professional teams had searched for it, how many people were thinking about it, had never left a trace, how could it be within my reach?

"Let's go back this time, take a good rest, and transport those mallets back in winter. From now on, we can live a stable life!"

Lu Lu looked at the brothers and smiled slightly: "In the past few years, the brothers have actually saved a lot of money in their pockets. Apart from these, as long as we run the farm well and live a good life, everything will be fine." No problem! We have been really tired in the past few years, so there is no need to work so hard, it’s just about right.”

Hearing this, several people couldn't help but look at Lu Lu, looking a little surprised.

"Lao Wu, I didn't mean that. I just feel really tired. I just feel physically tired. If we don't lift so many sticks, wouldn't it be wasted?" Liang Kangbo explained again and again, fearing that Lu Lu would misunderstand.

Zhang Shaofeng also quickly explained: "That's not what I meant. I'm still pointing you to lead us to make more money. Where is this?"

Lu Lu remained silent and did not speak.

Lei Meng looked at Lu Lu seriously. As the eldest brother and the person who knew Lu Lu best, he saw that Lu Lu really had the idea of ​​ending the mountain trek, so he asked: "Lao Wu, what do you think?"

"I'm just thinking that we are really tired like this. The most tired people are probably our family members. They should have been worrying about us all day long since we stepped out of the house... We can't ignore it just because of this. More important things! If you make a mistake like what we are doing now, all your previous efforts may be wasted, and the whole family may be dragged into the quagmire!"

When he said this, he couldn't help but think of what happened in his previous life. Wasn't it just to make more money, and once he fell into the trap, the whole family would be unlucky and humiliated?

It wasn't that he was afraid, but he felt that after learning the lessons from his previous life, he should know what is enough!

"When you get home safely this time, let's think about this problem carefully! Let's discuss it again... let's go!"

Lu Lu once again picked up his hunting bag and walked towards the west with heavy steps.

Two days later, they returned to the riverside. From a distance, they watched a dozen cavalry troops patrolling Maozi's side. They walked slowly up the riverside. They could also see Hezhe opposite, who was casting a net in the river to catch fish. Folks, the situation doesn't seem that tense. (End of chapter)
