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

Chapter 54 Earthworms are here, let's go catch ants.

"Dividing the family property? Homestead land?"

Zhang Boshu was shocked when he heard Zhang Yun's words.

Wang Yuanhui, who was inside the house, naturally heard these words as well. She was equally shocked and rushed to the door.

"Yun Yazi, where did you get the money to build a house?"

Wang Yuanhui asked the question with great curiosity.

Even though Wang Yuanhui considered her family to be wealthy, she never thought of building her own house. Instead, she tried to squeeze out Zhang Zhongli's family, seize the three rooms, and divide them among her three sons.

Where does Zhang Yun get the audacity to suggest dividing the family property and building a house?

"Why should I tell you where my money came from?"

Zhang Yun replied with a smile.

"Hmph, if you don't tell me where the money came from, your uncle won't be able to come with you to look at the land for building the house, and you can forget about building a house."

Seeing that Zhang Yun didn't want to tell the truth, Wang Yuanhui's anger flared up, and she immediately threatened him.

"It doesn't matter. Uncle can go if he wants to, and I can force him to go if he doesn't want to."

"However, if the gossip about the production team leader obstructing the villagers from building houses and the uncle being jealous of his nephew building a house spreads throughout the village, I don't know if my uncle can bear it."

Zhang Yun calmly replied.

According to the normal procedure, a member of the commune does need the production team leader's signature to allocate a homestead.

But Zhang Yun had just signed a sales contract with the brigade leader Zhang Youwei and had become Zhang Youwei's cash cow. Zhang Yun didn't believe that Zhang Boshu would dare to play any tricks under the pressure of Zhang Youwei.

Just now, Zhang Yun did want to calmly persuade Zhang Boshu, but Wang Yuanhui was as shrewish as ever, and with jealousy at play, she actually dared to threaten Zhang Yun. So Zhang Yun would not put up with such a jerk and immediately retorted.

Upon hearing Zhang Yun's words, Wang Yuanhui's angry expression froze, but she dared not reply.

Zhang Boshu's position as production team leader was indeed a weakness for Wang Yuanhui. No matter how unreasonable she was, she dared not affect her husband's future.

At this moment, Zhang Boshu patted Wang Yuanhui on the shoulder, signaling her to keep quiet.

"Alright, I'll go to the tea plantation with you this afternoon."

Zhang Boshu responded with a faint smile.

Zhang Yun then returned to his room.

Zhang Boshu and Wang Yuanhui returned to their rooms, and Wang Yuanhui, looking puzzled, immediately asked.

“Honey, why did you agree to that? If you don’t sign the papers, Zhang Yun can’t build the house.”

Zhang Boshu remained calm and replied, "Wife, didn't you say Zhang Yun had 60 yuan? According to the regulations, each member of the commune has to pay money to be allocated a plot of land for homesteading. It costs 20 yuan per fen (a unit of land measurement). Zhang Yun must want to build a big house, so it would need at least one mu (a unit of land measurement), which would cost 200 yuan."

"Think about it, even if Zhang Yun made a fortune through speculation, it couldn't possibly be 200 yuan. I estimate that this piece of land will drain all of Zhang Yun's money."

"After Zhang Yun pays for this plot of land, we'll find a way to get evidence that he's selling goods on the black market. That way, we can completely destroy him and make sure he can never recover."

After listening, Wang Yuanhui looked at her husband in surprise, only then realizing how shrewd and calculating he was.

"Understood. Then let Zhang Yun be arrogant for a few more days. Hmph, as long as the three of them from Unity Victory Construction find evidence of Zhang Yun's speculation and profiteering, I will put Zhang Yun in jail."

Wang Yuanhui spoke with icy eyes. She had been really angered by Zhang Yun these past few days, and she had to defeat Zhang Yun and continue to forcefully suppress Zhang Zhongli's family.

Meanwhile, when Zhang Yun returned home, Zhang Zhongli and Chen Wan each grabbed one of his hands, their faces showing displeasure.

"Zhang Yun, you want to separate from us?"

Clearly, the two of them had overheard what Zhang Yun said outside.

Zhang Yun was both amused and exasperated, and could only patiently explain, "Mom and Dad, I'm your only son, why are you dividing the family property? I just said that on purpose so that I could rightfully get a plot of land for the house."

In principle, each household in the village has one homestead.

However, in the 70s, there was no red line for arable land and no urbanization, so the management of homesteads was very lax, which made it easy for villagers to obtain a homestead.

However, the principle of one household, one residence is still officially maintained.

Zhang Yun went to see Zhang Boshu just now, of course to talk about dividing the family property, so that Zhang Yun could have an independent household registration and be entitled to a plot of land for his own home.

Zhang Zhongli and Chen Wan then let go, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Alright, Mom and Dad, you should go to each household and pay off all the debts."

Zhang Yun immediately urged them on, not wanting his parents to dwell on the matter of dividing the family property any longer. Their family values ​​were too traditional; they thought that separating the household registration meant dividing the family property, and that Zhang Yun wouldn't care about their lives when they got old.

Zhang Yun couldn't change their minds all at once; they needed time to process it.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Zhongli and Chen Wan took it very seriously and immediately went out.

After all, the debt had been weighing on their minds, preventing them from ever feeling proud.

Today, the two of them can finally hold their heads high.

Shortly after his parents left, a figure arrived at Zhang Yun's door. Just as Zhang Yun was about to lie down on the bed to rest, he heard a voice outside the door.

"Yun Ya Zi, I've brought the earthworms."

This is Sun Fugui's voice.

Zhang Yun immediately got up and welcomed Sun Fugui into the house. Then he picked up a small pickling jar from Sun Fugui's hand, inside which many earthworms were wriggling and entangled.

"Uncle Fugui, how many earthworms are there?"

Zhang Yun asked with a smile.

“There should be more than two hundred. I specifically told the kids to dig up more.”

Sun Fugui emphasized this point, afraid that Zhang Yun wouldn't believe him and would think he had said too much.

"Then I'll take this bargain and call it 200 earthworms. Uncle Fugui, wait a moment, I'll go get the money."

Zhang Yun smiled and said this, then went into his room. He pretended to feel under the bed, but actually took out 4 yuan from his spiritual spring space. Then he returned to the main room and handed the money to Sun Fugui.

"Ah...it really is 4 yuan."

It was agreed that 100 earthworms would cost two yuan. Sun Fugui really didn't expect that Zhang Yun would keep his word and pay him on the spot.

Zhang Yun took the jar into the kitchen again and immediately put all the earthworms into his spiritual spring space.

With these earthworms, a large number of earthworms can be quickly reproduced, and frogs and pheasants can also eat these earthworms in the future.

Zhang Yun took out the jar again and handed it to Sun Fugui, then smiled and said, "Uncle Fugui, I don't need the earthworms for now. I'd like to ask you for another favor. Could you go and catch some ants for me? How about that?"

Frogs and pheasants can also eat ants.

In any case, Zhang Yun wanted to enrich the diet of frogs and pheasants, and he wanted to catch some of all kinds of insects to breed in the spiritual spring space.

Zhang Yun didn't want to handle these matters himself, so he left them to Sun Fugui's family, which was also a way of helping them.

"Okay, okay, of course I'd like to."

Sun Fugui solemnly put the 4 yuan into his pocket and replied with great joy.

"Catching ants is very simple. You just need to dig out an earthworm, put it in a bamboo tube, and when the ants find the earthworm, they will swarm into the bamboo tube and try to drag the earthworm away."

"If you see earthworms covered in ants, seal the mouth of the bamboo tube with wet mud, and you'll get a tube full of ants."

"How about this, one bamboo tube for one cent?"

Zhang Yun immediately said.

Since there's no way to count ants or measure their weight, Zhang Yun had to use a bamboo tube to measure them.

Upon hearing this, Sun Fugui's face broke into a smile again.

There are plenty of wild bamboos in Jiuwan Village. You can cut down a few dozen bamboos, saw them into hundreds of sections, and then go to hundreds of ant nests. Use earthworms to lure out the ants, and then seal the ants that have entered the bamboo tubes.

Zhang Yun is essentially giving money to Sun Fugui.

Sun Fugui was very grateful to Zhang Yun.
