The hunter's leisurely life begins with marrying a female educated youth.

Before dawn, Zhang Yun suddenly woke up.

Looking around, it was still dark outside.

Zhang Yun kept remembering that he needed to sell the frogs and rabbits at the Linshui Mine black market. Although he fell asleep because he had used up his mental energy to control the spiritual spring space, he still woke up at around four o'clock.

Immediately, Zhang Yun noticed that his perception had indeed improved.

Zhang Yun could hear her parents breathing in the cubicle.

Even the smells emanating from various parts of the room could be identified as originating from somewhere.

Through a small crack in the window, Zhang Yun's eyesight was so good that he could see the night outside.

This confirmed Zhang Yun's hypothesis: by consuming mental energy to manipulate the spiritual spring space, he could indeed gradually improve his perception.

At this moment, Zhang Yun's consciousness entered the spiritual spring space, and then his eyes widened, revealing a look of surprise.

"The Spirit Spring Space... has gained another acre!"

Yes, when Zhang Yun's consciousness entered the Spirit Spring space, he immediately discovered that in addition to the initial one acre of space, another acre had been added.

However, in this newly added acre of land, time stands still.

At that moment, Zhang Yun understood.

This spiritual spring space expands by one acre every day. Moreover, the time flow rate of this newly added acre is 0.

Above the boulder on the initial one acre of land.

Acceleration Points: 1.07

Looking at the number, Zhang Yun suddenly had an idea: 'Place an acceleration point on the newly added space.'

Immediately, Zhang Yun realized that the time flow of this newly added acre of land had changed, maintaining the same time flow as the real world.

After a while, Zhang Yun confirmed that there were no new discoveries in the spiritual spring space, so he got out of bed, did not wake his parents, and quickly left the room. He then went to his third uncle's house next door and knocked on the door.

"Who?"

Zhang Jiwu's voice rang out.

"Third Uncle, it's me. Get up quickly, we can set off."

Zhang Yun replied.

There was immediate movement of people getting up and dressing inside the room. Soon after, Zhang Jiwu opened the door and came to Zhang Yun's side.

"Third Uncle, get a carrying pole. We need to carry the frogs to the Linshui Mine. It's quite a distance."

Zhang Yun said calmly.

Zhang Jiwu nodded, immediately went back into the house, grabbed a bamboo carrying pole, and also took two thick hemp ropes.

The two immediately headed out of the village, walking quickly in the quiet night.

The Linshui Mine is 10 li away from Jiuwan Village, so we have to get there early to have enough time to return to the village, since we have to report to the production team at 9 a.m.

“Yun Ya Zi, the two of you stayed up all night at the No. 3 fishpond, and our frog was released into the fishpond.”

"I need to go to fishpond number three first and pick out the frogs."

Only after leaving the village's residential area did Zhang Jiwu speak.

“Perfect timing. My frog is in fishpond number four, which isn’t far from fishpond number three. Uncle, let’s split up. You go pick up your frog first, then come to fishpond number four to pick me up.”

Zhang Yun said with a smile.

During the period when the production team carried out major water conservancy repairs, the six production teams of Jiuwan Village dug eight large fish ponds according to the terrain of the mountain valley, which were usually used to raise common fish such as grass carp, bighead carp, and crucian carp.

The reason Zhang Yun separated from Zhang Jiwu was, of course, to conceal the existence of the Spirit Spring Space.

Soon after, Zhang Yun arrived at fishpond number four, took out a fertilizer bag containing a hundred frogs.

As for the 25 wild rabbits, Zhang Yun didn't take them out, as it wasn't convenient for Zhang Jiwu to see them.

Soon, Zhang Jiwu arrived at Fishpond No. 4 with his two sons, Zhang Yixin and Zhang Yiyi.

"Brother Yun, we also want to go to the Linshui Mine."

The two brothers, with one heart and one mind, took turns speaking.

"You two spent the whole night watching the frogs and didn't get any sleep, so you don't need to continue your journey."

"Next time, if we catch some wild animals, I'll take you to the Linshui Mine."

Zhang Yun immediately refused.

Zhang Jiwu tied Zhang Yun's fertilizer bags with hemp rope, then carried the two bags of frogs on his shoulder. He then laughed and said, "I told you, your brother Yun wouldn't agree to come along. Alright, go home and catch up on some sleep. We'll be back soon."

Immediately, Zhang Jiwu and Zhang Yun walked quickly towards the Linshui Mine.

"Brother Yun, you promised this yourself, so you must take us with you next time."

Zhang Yixin and Zhang Yiyi were both straightforward and didn't argue.

In the 70s, rural people relied mainly on their own two feet to travel long distances.

Of course, the production team also had oxcarts, and the brigade secretary was also provided with a bicycle, but these were all public property and generally not to be lent out.

Zhang Yun naturally didn't have the face to lend out his bicycle, so he could only take turns carrying the load on a shoulder pole with his third uncle, making their way to the Linshui Mine with great difficulty.

Fortunately, both of them were used to walking, and they arrived at the Linshui Mine in just one hour, covering a distance of 10 li (approximately 5 kilometers).

This waterside mine got its name because it is only one kilometer away from the Qushui River.

The mine is very large and produces non-ferrous metals.

Southern Hunan Province is also the country's largest non-ferrous metal producing area.

The mine is located in a mountain range, and the access road is built along the mountain, winding and turning through the mountains.

"Third Uncle, let's go straight to Jigong Mountain."

After arriving at the Linshui mining area, Zhang Yun pointed in a direction.

The Linshui Mine covers a large area and has thousands of miners. In addition to their families, the area is home to four or five thousand people.

The residential area arranged by the mine was located on Jigong Mountain, which had a large flat area with an earthworm-like topography. Therefore, the mine built a main road with rows of houses on both sides of the road.

Behind the house, there are only mountains.

Because miners live in the mines year-round and accumulate large amounts of wages and receipts, they rarely have the opportunity to spend them. At the same time, these miners and their families have a need to improve their meals, which led to the formation of a natural black market on Jigong Mountain.

In 77, the country had not yet reformed and opened up, had not liberalized the individual economy, and was still cracking down on speculation and profiteering, so no one dared to sell openly.

The market that naturally formed on Jigong Mountain was not recognized by the commune and was secretly referred to as a black market.

However, Qushui Commune was aware of the special circumstances of the Linshui Mine, but did not take any action to crack down on it. As long as it did not go too far, it was left to its own devices.

Zhang Yun had memories of his previous life, so he naturally knew about the special circumstances of Jigong Mountain, which was why he brought Zhang Jiwu here to sell frogs.

Before long, the two uncles and nephews finally entered Jigong Mountain and arrived at the crossroads.

It's only a little past five o'clock, and it's still dark.

But the families of the miners have gotten used to getting up early. After all, those ordinary people who dare to enter the black market don't dare to come during the day; they all come to Jigong Mountain before dawn.

So, as soon as the two arrived at the intersection, they could vaguely see some figures moving around.

What's amazing is that despite so many people moving around, everyone tacitly refrained from speaking loudly, only quietly inquiring about the price when they came to the items they needed.

"Third Uncle, I'm going to find a place to set up a stall. You stay within a hundred meters of me and pretend to be a customer. Keep watch for me. If you spot any police officers coming, come and tell me immediately."

Zhang Yun said calmly.

Although no police officers had come to patrol Jigong Mountain for a long time, Zhang Yun dared not be careless. If he ran into one and got arrested, it would leave a record.

As soon as Zhang Jiwu discovers this and runs over to tell Zhang Yun, the two of them will immediately escape into the mountains behind.

"Okay." Zhang Jiwu realized what Zhang Yun was worried about and immediately agreed.
