I rely on infrastructure systems to build a prosperous village
Chapter 13 Don’t be obsessed with me, I’m just a legend
In the evening, everyone came back one after another and were shocked to see a wild boar weighing hundreds of pounds in the yard.
When the children saw the wild boar, they clapped their hands happily and circled around it.
"Oh my goodness, is this the wild boar that the eldest girl killed? It's too big." Uncle Li Chunsheng said in shock.
"This Lan girl is really strong."
"Really? If it were me, I'd have to quickly climb a tree and hide in this wild boar weighing hundreds of pounds."
My aunt and uncle said with a smile.
Li Lan: I feel like I’m being implied, don’t you?
"Sister, you are so awesome. Please take me with you next time you go into the mountains." Li Xing ran over and took Li Lan's hand and said coquettishly.
Before Li Lan could speak, his aunt glared at Li Xing and said, "Why, there's still a next time. If you want to go, ask your second aunt about the stick in her hand."
Li Lan: "...", thinking about Zhang's majestic appearance just now, he shook his body, and couldn't help but touch the place where he was beaten again, and it still felt a little painful.
"Yes, what my aunt said is right. Xing'er, we can't go into the deep mountains. There are so many ferocious wild beasts there. If you are not careful, you will easily be torn to pieces by the wild beasts like this." As he said this, he bared his teeth and shook his head, imitating the movement of a wild beast biting.
Seeing Li Lan's crazy movements, Li Xing couldn't help but swallow the saliva in her mouth, and her heart couldn't help but feel a little excited: "Big sister is so crazy, but I like it so much."
If Li Lan could hear Li Xing's inner voice, he would definitely reply proudly: "Don't be obsessed with me, I'm just a legend."
"What are you doing? You naughty girl." Zhang slapped Li Lan on the head.
"Ouch, mom, please be gentler. If you hit me again, your daughter will be slapped silly." Li Lan stomped his feet and shouted while covering his head.
Listening to Li Lan's words and watching her actions, everyone burst into laughter. The yard was suddenly filled with joy.
"Okay, stop making trouble. Let's get rid of the wild boar before it gets dark." Mrs. Wang said at the right time.
"Okay, Mom. My second and third brothers and I will clean up right away." The uncle turned around and went back to the kitchen to get the tools.
"The water is already boiling. I'll get a basin of it and bring it over." Zhang turned and went into the kitchen.
"Okay, then let's catch the wild boar together." The eldest aunt also rolled up her sleeves and said to the third aunt.
The work in the yard was in full swing. The children were watching with great interest, laughing out loud from time to time.
"Grandma, what are we going to do with this wild boar meat?" Li Lan walked into the kitchen and asked.
"We'll cut three pounds of meat tonight and fry it, and keep 20 pounds for ourselves to make pickled meat. We'll send another two pounds of meat to Li the hunter and two pounds to the village chief. We'll sell the rest in town tomorrow and buy some food." Mrs. Wang thought for a moment and replied.
"Grandma, I'm thinking we shouldn't sell it in town. Let's sell it in the village, to our fellow villagers. I came back carrying the wild boar today, and many people saw it. In this year of disaster, I'm worried some people might have bad intentions. If we sell it to the villagers at a low price, wouldn't that also be a favor? That way, the villagers won't say anything, and even if they do, we can all come together to spit on them."
Mrs. Wang thought about what Li Lan said and felt that it made sense.
"Yes, that's true. You've thought it through. Our eldest girl has really grown up." Mrs. Wang said with a relieved smile.
Li Lan was so happy to receive the praise from the head of the family that he stood there grinning with his teeth bared.
The next morning, Uncle Li Chunlei set up a table outside the yard to sell the remaining wild boar meat. Last night, they had agreed that the town sells domestic pigs for 30 wen per jin (approximately 20 wen per jin), mixed fat and lean meat for 15 wen per jin, and lean meat for 15 wen per jin. The wild boar meat would be sold to the villagers at wen per jin, and they would give away whatever else they had besides the meat.
"Chun Lei, are you going to sell this wild boar meat? How do you sell it?" Aunt Wang from next door happened to see the wild boar meat on the table in the yard.
"Yes, Sister Wang. We charge the villagers 15 wen per pound, and we still have some large bones, ribs, intestines, livers, and lungs left over. We'll give them all away."
"Okay, give me two pounds," said Aunt Wang.
Li Chunlei cut up two pounds of wild boar meat and gave Aunt Wang half a pig's liver and a pig's rib with a little meat on it. Aunt Wang was very happy.
Soon, many aunts who came to buy meat gathered in front of the table.
"Oh, they're selling wild boar meat." The old woman stood on tiptoe at the back, stretching her head and looking at the meat on the table.
"How much is one pound?" she asked the woman beside her.
"15 wen a pound, plus some extra."
"What? 15 cents per pound? Isn't that the same price as the meat in the town? This Wang Po's family is too dishonest. Why do they sell it to the villagers at such a high price?" Hua Po shouted.
The people around her looked at her crazy look, curled their lips and ignored her.
Hua Pozi's eyes suddenly lit up, and she squeezed forward relying on her strong body.
"Leizi, you're selling wild boar meat for the same price as pork in town. You're being too dishonest, charging so much for the villagers." Hua Pozi squeezed in front of the meat stall and shouted, rolling her eyes.
Li Chunlei was honest and simple-minded, and not good at speaking. After hearing what Hua Pozi said, he felt depressed and didn't know how to defend himself.
"I'm talking about flower milk~milk. If you think it's too expensive, go to town and buy it yourself. No one requires you to buy it here." Li Lan walked out of the yard quickly and stood beside her uncle like a guardian angel.
Li Chunlei couldn't help but lean closer to Li Lan, feeling, well, full of security.
"What are you talking about, little girl? What I said is wrong? Didn't you kill this wild boar from the west mountain of our village? Then this wild boar should belong to our village and should be shared by all the people in our village. It's okay for your family to eat it alone, but you also sell it for 15 cents per pound? Everyone, listen to me, am I right?" Hua Pozi shouted righteously to the aunts who were buying meat.
"No, you old woman, do you still have some dignity? People killed a wild boar and gave you a share. How shameless of you! If you want to buy something, buy it. If not, don't stand there and get in the way. After we finish shopping, we have to get back to work."
When Hua Pozi saw that it was the village chief's wife, she didn't know what to say for a moment. After a while, she thought about it, rolled her eyes, and said with her neck stiff, "You are the village chief's wife. You have money to buy meat, but we can't. The little money we earn is not easy, so we have to spend it frugally."
"You shameless person..." Mrs. Qiu was so angry that she pointed at her and was speechless for a long time.
"Do you want to buy it?" Li Lan tilted his head and looked at the proud Hua Pozi.
"Yes, but you have to give me a discount and give me a pound of meat as a gift."
After hearing what Hua Pozi said, everyone was shocked by her shamelessness. She was so shameless.
Li Lan scoffed. He looked at her coldly, picked up the pork-cutting knife next to him, and slashed at the stool next to the butcher's stall. With a "crack," the stool split in two.
Everyone was so shocked that they dared not make a sound.
"How about I give you this stool as a gift?" Li Lan tilted his head and looked at her coldly.
Hua Pozi felt her whole body go cold. She thought to herself: This girl is getting more and more evil. Forget it, I can't afford to offend her.
"Well, 15 cents is 15 cents, give me two pounds." Hua Pozi said tremblingly.
Li Lan sneered, staring at her straight in the eye, and said word for word, "People need dignity, trees need bark, and when a person is humble, he is invincible. Sorry, I won't sell you this wild boar meat."
"Why don't you sell it to me?" Hua Pozi shouted with her neck stiffened.
"I won't sell it to you, so what? What can you do to us? You can only look at us." Li Lan turned the knife in his hand and looked at her.
Hua Pozi looked at the knife spinning in her hand with cold eyes and shrank her neck.
"If you don't want to sell it, then don't sell it. I won't buy it." After saying that, he ran around the crowd.
Li Lan chuckled as he watched her run away. Turning back, he saw all the grandmothers and aunts looking at her, their eyes sparkling with curiosity.
"Uh, what's going on?" Li Lan took a step back in shock. After a moment's thought, "This is admiration for me." She proudly tossed her hair in front of her forehead, shaking her legs, and said narcissistically, "Don't be obsessed with me, I'm just a legend."
After selling the wild boar meat, I was about to move the table into the house.
"My daughter, my daughter, there's water. We've dug out the water." Li Chunping shouted at Li Lan.
