59 years after its opening, people are still in Nanluoguxiang.
Chapter 825 Outing
It would be boring to go back home, so Chen Feng simply rode his bicycle out of the city. With his great strength, even the snowy and muddy roads outside the city could not stop his interest in wandering in the fields.
"Comrade, colds are prevalent outside now, especially in the countryside. You'd better not run around, or you'll suffer if you get sick."
Just after coming out of the Drum Tower, he met an old man who was picking up rags and rubbish who kindly reminded him.
"I'm in good health." Chen Feng slowed down and answered with a smile.
"You can't take this kind of thing lightly. If you get sick and pass it on to your family members when you get home, that would be a real pain." The old man, wearing a ragged jacket and pulling a three-wheeled bicycle that must be from a garbage station, advised kindly, "If you need to go out to do something, go early and come back early, and don't stay out too long."
"Good pinch, sir!"
Chen Feng said this in a very sincere manner.
He could understand the old man's thoughts very well. It was probably similar to the appearance of viruses in later generations. He hoped that no one would be infected, otherwise he would be worried every time he went out!
After leaving the Drum Tower, there are basically fields outside. The countryside is outside the second ring road of the current Sijiu City.
Although the weather has been sunny in the past few days, the seven days of snow cannot disappear all at once. Coupled with the freezing temperature, most parts of the fields are still covered with a layer of white.
The cold wind and the flu have caused people in and outside the city to stay at home to keep warm unless they have something to do. People can still be seen in the city, but in the suburbs, it is basically white.
The cold weather forced most hunters in the countryside, who did not have enough warm clothes, to hide at home.
Perhaps many people ask, what about the furs of the prey captured by hunters?
Of course it was sold!
There was no idle land in the world, but farmers still starved to death. It is not so sad now, but most hunters still choose to sell their furs first, and at most leave one or two for their families.
In addition, it is now the snow-melting period, making it difficult to move around in the mountains and inconvenient to walk and climb.
But there is always someone special!
After Chen Feng rode for more than ten miles, he met an old hunter who had obviously gone to the city early in the morning to sell his prey. He was driving a donkey cart slowly back.
Chen Feng, who was just a passerby, found that the old man seemed a little drowsy.
If it were any other situation it would be fine, but he was driving a car now, and in the car there was a girl of seven or eight years old, a bag of rice, a bag of corn, and more than a dozen sea fish.
This is probably one of the few advantages of winter in the north. The temperature is low, so fish from the seaside can be kept fresh for a long time and will not become smelly.
If the old man really falls asleep accidentally and rolls out of the car and falls into the snow, it would be fatal.
So, Chen Feng couldn't help but speak.
"Uncle, be careful. You are driving the car. Do you want a cigarette to wake yourself up?"
Chen Feng passed by his donkey cart, saw the old man seemed a little sleepy, smiled and took out his cigarette.
"Forehead."
When Chen Feng greeted him from behind, the old man regained consciousness and woke up with a start. He instinctively grabbed the pistol hidden in his clothes. He noticed Chen Feng's smile, hesitated for a few seconds, realized his dangerous situation, and thanked him, "Thank you, comrade, for reminding me."
Seeing the cigarette in his hand, I hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't help it.
"Shut up!"
He pulled the reins and stopped the cart. Chen Feng also stopped beside the donkey cart and handed the old man a cigarette lit by a match, which earned him a round of thanks.
Chen Feng glanced at the quiet little girl, smiled and took out a salted fish pie from his bag and gave it to her.
The little girl swallowed and looked at her grandfather.
"Thank you very much, comrade. Our village is not far ahead. Take this rice back and cook porridge."
The old man was very grateful, but still refused.
"Grandpa, didn't we have a bumper harvest this year? Why are we still short of food?" Chen Feng stopped the car and chatted with the old man on the side of the road.
The sun is out in the morning and it feels quite warm on people.
The old man smoked a cigarette and couldn't help laughing when he heard it. He said, "There is no shortage this year, but what if there is a shortage next year? Last year, people almost starved to death. Fortunately, the government provided relief grain, otherwise people would have starved to death."
"Nowadays, every family should store more food to save their lives."
Chen Feng asked curiously: "How much did you sell to get so much food?"
The old man whispered, "My son went out the other day when it snowed, and guess what happened?"
"What's wrong?"
Chen Feng asked happily even though he knew the answer.
"Hey, thank God, thank Chairman Mao, and thank the new government!"
"Thank me!"
"My son went out and saw a big wild boar looking for food in the field. He immediately went home to get his shotgun and shot the wild boar dead with three shots."
"Grandpa, it's one shot, Dad said one shot!" The girl couldn't help but say, revealing a strong aura of "My dad is so awesome."
"Don't listen to your father's bragging. There are three holes on the body of a wild boar. Who are you trying to fool?" said the old man honestly and simply.
"A wild boar is exchanged for this little?"
Chen Feng suspected that the old man had been cheated.
The old man smiled and said nothing.
Well, although the prices of unplanned purchases vary a lot, under normal circumstances, it is not easy to deceive people.
Country people may not have a broad vision or perspective, but when it comes to price negotiation, they are rarely fooled, especially the elderly, who have extremely strong bargaining skills.
On the contrary, many young people are unwilling to bargain and just do it straightforwardly.
Chen Feng has suffered a lot in this regard before!
The marketing methods of later generations are too dark, they have figured out the customer psychology in many ways!
After walking a few miles with the old man, we arrived at his village and parted ways at the intersection.
Not long after, Chen Feng heard the cheers of the village children behind him, probably because the girl's younger brothers saw the sea fish.
We passed by one village after another and entered the foot of the mountain. Along the way, we saw all kinds of wild ducks, pheasants, and rabbits everywhere. Poor them, they were enjoying the warmth of spring in their own space, but when they came out, they were frozen to death and ran around in panic.
Especially the wild ducks and pheasants, which kept calling. I wonder if they were cursing Mr. Chen’s viciousness!
"Drink some water first."
Chen Feng released a tiger, fed it a basin of well water, and gave it three sealed roast ducks.
The big tiger devoured the three roast ducks in one bite, and then slowly drank the well water.
Chen Feng was drinking juice on the side. He drank several bottles in a row before he no longer felt thirsty.
Riding on the tiger and collecting the bicycles, Chen Feng went up the mountain happily. He wanted to see the snow scenery below the mountain from the top of the mountain.
For ordinary hunters, climbing up the mountain on the snow consumes several times more energy than usual, so normally they would not do this.
Because the lost calories are difficult to obtain from food lacking in fat, if you go into the mountains at this time, you might really freeze to death, catch a cold, or die of exhaustion.
But tigers are different. This kind of cat is naturally adapted to living in the mountains.
Tigers do not hibernate, and it is common for them to hunt in severe cold weather.
