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

Zhang Yun put the badger down.

Despite walking such a long way and carrying this heavy load, Zhang Yun didn't even break a sweat.

It is evident that the power feedback from the Spirit Spring Space has now elevated Zhang Yun's body to a higher level, not only increasing his physical strength but also significantly improving his endurance.

"Third Uncle, how many wild animals did you catch?"

Zhang Yun sat down and asked with a smile.

Zhang Jiwu immediately took the basket and let Zhang Yun inspect it.

Then, Zhang Yun didn't open the cover, but started counting through the gap.

“That’s good, thirteen rabbits and a poisonous snake.”

"Third Uncle, this poisonous snake is dead. Take it home and we can cook it tonight. These thirteen wild rabbits, come with me to the mine tomorrow morning and sell them all to the mine."

Zhang Yun immediately said so.

Zhang Jiwu, of course, listened to Zhang Yun and agreed immediately.

"By the way, Uncle, do you know where in these mountains there is a cave where this badger and the rabbit are hiding?"

Zhang Yun asked with a smile.

If these badgers and rabbits were taken back to the village, they would have to be handed over to the production team.

Therefore, these badgers and rabbits must be hidden away and brought out again tomorrow morning to be sent directly to the Linshui mine.

Zhang Jiwu is 44 years old this year and has always lived in Jiuwan Village, so he is very familiar with the surrounding areas.

After thinking for a while, Zhang Jiwu smiled and said, "If we're talking about caves, I really can't think of a good one."

"But when I think of using it to hide things, I remember."

"At the foot of this pine mountain, there used to be a local earth god temple, but it was demolished during that movement."

"But the foundation of the earth god temple was not demolished, and there happened to be a basement made of cobblestones there. As long as we put these things in the basement and cut down a few trees to seal off the exit, we will be safe."

"Coincidentally, we were on our way to the Linshui Mine and we were just passing by this local temple."

In rural areas, it's common to build a local earth god temple to pray for good weather and abundant harvests. However, due to the nationwide movement that swept the country, all feudal things were to be demolished, and the earth god temple in Jiuwan Village was torn down.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yun suddenly remembered that there was indeed such an abandoned earth god temple.

"That earth god temple is indeed the best place to hide beasts."

"Let's move all these wild animals to the local temple now. It's so hot in the mountains, it's unbearable."

Zhang Yun immediately stood up and urged them on.

In fact, Zhang Yun could have stayed in the mountains indefinitely, but he could see that Zhang Jiwu's clothes were completely wet, and his face and neck were red and swollen, resembling hives, because of sun exposure or a bacterial infection from the mountains.

If he stayed in the mountains, Zhang Jiwu would suffer from unbearable itching all over his body, which would definitely be very uncomfortable.

"Alright, that's enough with the number of rabbits we've caught today."

Zhang Jiwu readily agreed.

Soon, the two uncles and nephews, each with their own finds, traversed the mountains and forests, avoiding the main roads. After about ten minutes, they arrived at the foot of a mountain in Songshu Mountain and found the ruins of a local temple covered with thatch.

After a flurry of activity, clearing away the thatch, the two finally found the basement, which was only about 4 square meters in size.

The basement walls are made of cobblestones, and there are nine steps from the ground to the basement floor. The entrance is about two meters high.

“Indeed, this is a natural place to store things. You can put wild animals here without worrying about them being stolen or being torn apart by wild animals.”

After examining it for a while, Zhang Yun said happily.

Then, the two put their harvest into the basement, cut down a tree nearby, and cut it into five sections, which were just enough to block the entrance.

The two men then moved a large stone from the foundation of the earth god temple and used it to weigh down the five sections of the tree trunk, ensuring that wild animals could not move the trunk and could not enter the basement.

After finishing all that, Zhang Yun looked at Zhang Jiwu's neck. Due to the bacterial infection in the mountains, he had a lot of hives and must be incredibly itchy.

"Third Uncle, you should go to the clinic. You can't keep enduring this."

Zhang Yun knew very well that this kind of urticaria was extremely itchy and hard to bear.

The hives will disappear on their own in about a day.

In his previous life, Zhang Yun frequently contracted urticaria when he went into the mountains, and he vividly remembered such itchy experiences.

In this rebirth, thanks to the power feedback from the spiritual spring space, Zhang Yun's body has changed. He hasn't had any bacterial infections in the two days he's been on the mountain, and his health has remained excellent.

"Okay, Uncle will head back now. It's really itchy."

Zhang Jiwu dared not be coy, immediately replied, and then ran away.

Zhang Yun watched Zhang Jiwu leave, then pondered for a moment.

Should we continue hunting wild animals in the mountains, or do something else?

"According to Grandpa Lu, to pass the assessment as a purchasing agent, I must ensure a daily supply of 100 jin of meat, which is 3,000 jin per month."

"Now, the Spirit Spring Space already has wild rabbits, pheasants, wild boars, roe deer, red jackals, venomous snakes, and frogs. Except for the roe deer, which there is only one now, the other wild animals can start to breed and form a large-scale industry."

"Once we can scale up the production and supply 100 jin of meat every day, there will be no problem."

"Therefore, the most urgent task is to find a way to feed these wild animals."

"Various kinds of pig feed have been planted. When the space increases by another acre tomorrow, all the pig feed will be transplanted there, which will ensure the food supply for those wild boars."

"We can temporarily alleviate the problem of food for the more than fifty wild rabbits by using sweet potato vines; it's not too urgent."

"But there are no pheasants, venomous snakes, or frogs to eat in this space, so that's the most urgent thing right now."

After calmly analyzing his current situation, Zhang Yun made a decision.

Of course, they're going to find food for pheasants, poisonous snakes, and frogs.

Generally speaking, pheasants can eat insects and wild grass.

But Zhang Yun didn't want to simply raise pheasants. He wanted to grow some medicinal herbs, such as dandelion, mint, bitter greens, astragalus, codonopsis, and angelica, so that the pheasants would be more nutritious.

Frog feeding is divided into two stages: during the tadpole stage, they are fed soybean milk, rice bran, and tofu residue, while during the adult frog stage, they are fed mainly insects, such as earthworms, flies, small fish and shrimp.

Venomous snakes are fed mainly small animals such as frogs, toads, rodents, and birds.

It can be said that once frogs reach a certain scale, they can be used to feed venomous snakes, thereby enabling the snakes to reproduce on a large scale.

Continuing with this analysis, Zhang Yun realized that there were two things to consider next.

First, they go up the mountain to find various medicinal herbs, which will ensure the reproduction of pheasants.

Secondly, go to the fields to find earthworms, insects, and flies. After these insects are bred, they can be used to feed frogs on a large scale.

Having fully understood the situation, Zhang Yun didn't delay any longer and turned to walk into the pine forest.
