Being able to farm: starting from moving to the village and picking up furry

Wang Zhusheng, who was standing by, twitched his mouth wildly when he heard this. "Hey, Brother Hu, where did the snake get its butt? It's already this time, don't joke around. Don't think about that now, the main thing to consider is the wild boar!"

When hunters were bitten by those so-called poisonous snakes, they went to see a doctor immediately, but there is still no news and it is not known whether the poison can be detoxified.

Those people didn't catch the poisonous snake, they just said it could fly, but they had never heard of or seen a snake flying.

The bearded man felt more and more aggrieved the more he thought about it. He raised his hand and was about to slap the table, but then he remembered what Wang Zhusheng had just said about not wasting food. He stopped his hand in the air and looked up to see his colleague looking at him gloomily.

"Pa!" The big man turned his hand and slapped his own thigh, but he didn't feel any pain.

Wang Zhusheng, who was eating peanuts, saw that he stopped banging the table. He raised his eyebrows in satisfaction and chewed peanuts.

Especially tonight, when the group of people were leaving, they forced them to hand over the wild boar they wanted.

How can they communicate? What is the point? Even if they were all turned into wild boars, it wouldn’t be enough.

"Then what should we do? We went to the village below today. The wild boars that the hunters who were in charge of this area were killed by poisonous snakes overnight. Two or three hunters were also bitten by poisonous snakes. If the boss hadn't bled them in time, I guess those people would not have fainted, but died on the spot."

Looking at the thin back of his boss standing in front of the window without saying a word, Wang Zhusheng and the big man Hu Tieguo next to him looked at each other, sighed, and planned to sit down to eat.

They went out early in the morning to hunt for some wild boar, and they didn't even have time to eat a bite of food, their stomachs were already rumbling.

"What a pity, it would have been great if it was a wild boar..." Lu Liang, with his hands on the window, glanced at the group of people herding pigs downstairs of the restaurant, and subconsciously spoke out his thoughts.

They received instructions from above a few days ago that a fire had broken out in the mountains in the north and many wild animals in the mountains had died or fled.

An official from above sent someone down to say that the court wanted more prey, and the chosen places were Yunshui County and Yushan County, one for wild boars and the other for wild deer.

The county magistrate and county magistrate Wei assigned him additional staff and had long ago reminded them to handle this matter well, otherwise something bad would happen.

This year, it was Yunshui County's turn to offer wild boars as tribute. Most of them came from several villages around Muqiang Town. They were all prepared and could barely deliver the task, but who would have thought that something unexpected would happen in the middle of the process. The hunter who caught the wild boar was bitten by a poisonous snake, and the wild boar was poisoned to death.

"If the wild boar tribute is not paid on time and in the right amount, we local officials will be demoted or fined. However, the imperial court will impose additional taxes on the places that fail to pay tribute on time, in addition to the regular taxes. These taxes will be passed on to the people, which will increase the burden on the surrounding people."

Lu Liang, who came from a common people's family, knew from a young age that the regular taxes such as land tax, corvee tax and poll tax collected by the court every year had already made the common people who worked on the land miserable. Every penny was squeezed out of their lives.

The county magistrate was helpless. He had been losing hair to begin with, and it had been falling out even more rapidly in the past few days. This morning, when he heard the news that the wild boar was gone, he was so angry that he pulled out several strands of his beard.

Lu Liang still remembers that when he went in to report the news and went back to look for people, he saw the county magistrate and the county lieutenant, who were sighing and counting the beards they had pulled out with sad faces.

As the officials of Yunshui County, they performed their duties conscientiously and cared for the people. They even exempted the people of Muqiang Town from the city entry tax that was usually collected by many towns.

"Boss, where can we catch a live wild boar at this time?" Hu Tieguo took a sip of wine irritably. "It's too late to find hunters nearby now."

Wang Zhusheng hadn't seen the other brothers, so he added, "And only hunters who have cooperation with the government will try to catch live animals. Other hunters who come to the town to sell only killed animals."

In their current situation, people would come to ask for money at night, and they really had no choice.

"Boss, people are made of iron and food is made of steel. Please sit down and have something to eat first, otherwise..." Wang Zhusheng closed his mouth as soon as he opened his mouth.

He saw the boss standing in front of the window seemed to have discovered something. He put his hand to his lips, signaling them to be quiet. He held the hilt of the knife with one hand and listened to something.

"Wild boar, there is a wild boar call, do you hear it?"

Upon hearing this, the bearded man Hu Tieguo and Wang Zhusheng looked at each other in surprise.

Holding their breath and listening carefully for a while, they both shook their heads and said, "I didn't hear it."

This is a restaurant, where does the sound of a wild boar come from? Even if there is, it should only be heard in the mountains.

"No, boss, we are in Wanfu Restaurant now, not in the mountains. Are you hallucinating?" Hu Tieguo said.

Wang Zhusheng, who originally ate peanuts, stopped eating them now.

He stood up and ran over, reaching out to touch Lu Liang's forehead, "Or did you catch a cold from the breeze last night? You don't have a fever, so why are you talking nonsense, boss?"

"Maybe the boss missed the wild boar too much, so he thought about it." Hu Tieguo also came over and wanted to touch Lu Liang's forehead, but was slapped away by him.

Lu Liang's mouth twitched and he rolled his eyes at the two brothers' behavior. "What are you two thinking about all day? Although I'm not as strong as you two, my body is not worse than yours."

The two burly men looked at each other, grinned, and said to the skinny leader, "That's right. Even if the rest of us brothers join forces, we can't beat you."

"By the way, Boss, did you really hear the sound of a wild boar just now?" The two were still a little confused.

It was broad daylight and almost noon. The streets were bustling with people and the restaurants were noisy. How could the sound of a wild boar be heard? Could it be the new ventriloquism learned by the street opera troupe?

Lu Liang waved his hand and strode out of the room. "Whether it was an auditory hallucination or not, we will know it after we see it with our own eyes. Let's go!"

While walking on the street, Xia Qingyu noticed that someone was staring at them. She put her hand on her forehead, pretended to look up at the sun above, and instinctively glanced towards the source of the gaze.

She found that it was the second floor of Wanfu Restaurant. There were several open windows, but no one was next to the windows. She withdrew her gaze, not taking it to heart, and continued to drive the eight wild boars.

Li Yanxi, who was beside her, saw Xia Qingyu's action and looked in her direction, but saw nothing. He moved closer to her and asked, "Wife, what's wrong?"

"It's okay, just a little hot." Xia Qingyu shook his head and replied casually.

The two of them were talking quietly, and they didn't whisper to each other, but Mr. Li and the others heard it, and they winked at each other.
