Jiang Sen knew that Lu Xiu would cause trouble again.

There are no easy jobs at the timber yard.

When the train arrives, we must hurry to load it. If even one person is lazy, the train may miss its departure time.

From the moment Lu Xiu boarded the train in Kyoto until now, she has been using tears to gain sympathy.

I just don't know if it will work this time.

Wang Dajiang asked, "Crying? Did it help? If it's too tough over there, you can apply for another position!"

Jiang Sen scoffed inwardly. In this place, which position is easy?

Hey?

There really is one.

Maybe she wants to switch places with Shao Jiajia.

She must have seen it too; Class 5 is located at the team headquarters, and they eat and live there.

Moreover, based on my understanding of life in Kyoto, logistics is a lucrative job.

That should be it.

Ma Weiguo said, "I don't know. When I came out, I saw that the captain also had a dark face. The fourth squad leader was also arguing with him to replace him, but whether he replaced him or not, I don't know."

Jiang Sen thought that was not necessarily true.

Perhaps Sun Guohong or Shao Jiajia will propose changing positions themselves.

The mountain is very steep, and the trees along the log path have been cut down. Every day, logs are placed along the path to make it very smooth.

If people on the mountain want to get to the brigade headquarters after a snowfall in winter, they can simply sit on a board and slide down.

However, you need to master the technique, otherwise you don't know whether you'll end up crashing into a tree or falling into the snow.

Few people do this; only two or three daring individuals in the logging team do it frequently.

It's easy to go up the mountain but hard to go down the mountain.

Here, the situation reverses: going downhill is easy, but going uphill is difficult.

The three educated youths carried their luggage, but the class monitor had almost all the suitcases in his hands, leaving them quite far behind.

They would walk for a while, then stop to smoke a cigarette, and continue only after they caught up.

The saying "Looking at a mountain makes a horse run itself to death" is absolutely true.

When we reached the halfway point of the mountain, we could already see large trees falling down. Then, a thunderous roar echoed through the mountains: "They're falling down the mountain..."

Then there was a series of loud noises: "crashing," "splashing," and "boom," and a towering tree was felled.

The three team leaders laughed and led the three men along a path behind the trees beside the log shed to avoid being hit by falling logs.

When they came up from below, they took a small side path to reach the log-laying path.

If you walk down from below, you can see many large trees that have already been lowered down at the very bottom of the log-laying path.

These large trees were then hooked up with iron hooks by the fourth shift workers and hoisted into the timber yard by a crane and stacked up.

You need to be bold and careful, and know how to dodge. Otherwise, if you're stupid and don't know how to dodge, the logs above will come down and smash you into mud.

Jiang Sen recalled these events and sighed, realizing that no job was easy.

The first two days before setting off were also spent walking.

Although that road is considered a mountain road, it is passable by vehicles, so while walking is tiring, it's not so difficult that you can't walk at all.

But now, it's almost all about climbing mountains, which are not only steep but also very slippery.

Especially the Liberation Shoes with worn-down soles, they were slippery wherever you stepped.

Even Jiang Sen felt the strain.

He was panting and gritting his teeth as he climbed up; once he stopped, he couldn't climb any further.

The three team leaders were still the same, walking a bit, stopping, looking back at them, and saying something.

This was even more of a show of force than the one Zhang Jianjun had given them in the first two days.

But that's not true; it's just that the mountain roads are difficult to travel.

Suddenly, an animal jumped out from the side, startling Jiang Sen.

Ma Weiguo exclaimed in surprise, "It's a deer!"

Jiang Sen said, "It's a roe deer!"

Then they saw Sui Zhongliang take the gun off his back and use the muzzle to signal Jiang Sen and the others to crouch down and aim at the roe deer.

Jiang Sen slowly squatted down, and gestured for Wang Dajiang and Ma Weiguo to squat down quickly as well.

"Hey!" Sui Zhongliang shouted, and the roe deer turned its head.

A gunshot rang out, echoing through the mountains.

"Hit!" Ma Weiguo jumped up and ran in that direction, showing no signs of being unable to climb the mountain.

"Haha... Your marksmanship is still so accurate!" Tong Changshun laughed and took two steps back. "Hey, you guys drag the roe deer up here!"

Jiang Sen and Ma Weiguo each held one leg, while Wang Dajiang held the ear. The three of them dragged him along, and it still felt a bit strenuous.

This roe deer is quite large, weighing at least a hundred pounds.

When they brought it in front of Tong Changshun, he bent down, twisted the roe deer's head, and saw that the bullet had entered the roe deer's eye, but the rest of the animal was intact. He exclaimed, "A whole roe deer skin! Second brother, you're awesome!"

After saying that, he turned around, hoisted the roe deer onto his shoulder, and carried Wang Dajiang's suitcase in his hand. "Let's go! Time for some meat tonight!"

As Jiang Sen climbed higher, he felt more energetic.

Roe deer meat!

I could never forget it after eating it once in my past life. Even after returning to Kyoto and being able to eat meat regularly, I still often think back to that taste.

The group of six set off a little after 2 or 3 in the afternoon, thinking they would arrive before dark.

But they kept stopping and starting along the way, and it wasn't until dark that they finally saw a wooden house and two tents that looked like the Oroqen "Xierenzhu".

Several people ran out from inside, shouting "The captain is back!" and rushed forward to help carry the luggage and lift the roe deer.

"The second squad leader made this! Don't eat it yet!" Zhang Shaowen said. "Peel it first, be careful not to ruin it! Let the first and second squad leaders eat something and get some sleep, then they can leave tomorrow."

This is the third shift, responsible for clearing the mountain, which means clearing the timber.

The second shift has to go another one or two hours further in, while the first shift is at the deepest point.

There were more than ten people in the third class. Only the class leader and one deputy class leader were veterans; the rest were almost all educated youth.

They were very warm towards Jiang Sen and others, especially towards Ma Weiguo.

After learning that Ma Weiguo would be in their class, they immediately led their men toward the tent.

The educated youth all lived there.

Ma Weiguo's face turned green at that moment.

Six or seven grown men were crammed into a tent; you can imagine what the conditions inside were like.

That's not the most important thing. The most important thing is, what will happen in winter?

Jiang Sen and Wang Dajiang were pulled to the pit in front of the wooden house.

The earthen pit was actually a stove. You would dig a hole in the ground, put the pot on it, and then make a passage at the other end so that people could squat down and light the fire. It was windproof, warm, and didn't produce smoke.

This is an essential skill for military personnel to survive in the wild.

The deputy squad leader of the third squad led a few people to kill roe deer on the side, while someone brought hot water to Jiang Sen and Wang Dajiang.

After thanking him, Jiang Sen took out six cornbreads. "These are the meals for Class 1 and Class 2. The extra two are for meal expenses."

The person who came did not refuse, but took it with a smile and said, "I'll make room for you to eat later."

After saying that, he got up and went into the wooden house.

Wang Dajiang asked quietly, "Do I need to pay for food? But I didn't bring any!"

"I gave it, it's fine!"

"Then I'll give you food coupons!" Wang Dajiang blushed a little. When he came, he had thought about how Jiang Sen had bought so many corn biscuits by himself.

Now that he knows, it's too late. If he had known, he would have bought it anyway.

"We'll talk about it when we get to our class tomorrow!" Jiang Sen said. "You're in Class One now. If you can't produce it, your team leader will give it to you."

Despite saying that, Wang Dajiang still felt somewhat guilty.

Actually, it wouldn't matter if Jiang Sen didn't bring it out. They just stopped by for a meal. All three classes did the same thing, and they stopped keeping accounts a long time ago, and they can't remember anymore.

But the fact that he could produce two cornbreads, whether he gave them to someone or not, was secondary. The main thing was that people thought he was sensible and a considerate person.

The roe deer was skinned whole, especially its head, which was intact. I will try to trade it with the Oroqen hunters in the future.

Of course, the roe deer skin went to Sui Zhongliang, and the meat was divided into three portions.

Class Three grilled their portion right there and then!

Jiang Sen was moved to tears while eating; it was so delicious!
