Reborn in the 60s, I hunt to support my family and even seduce the village beauty.

"Xiao Kun, what's wrong?"

Chang Dashan and Cheng Rongjiang said in unison.

Chang Kun raised a finger, shushed, and whispered:

"Let's go over there slowly, there's something going on over there."

Having said that, he tiptoed up to the top of the hill.

The group followed and peered down from the stone shed on the mountaintop.

Halfway up the mountain, a wild boar weighing about 300 pounds was shaking its head, wagging its tail, and roaring angrily.

Opposite it was a snake as thick as a forearm, grayish-brown all over, its triangular head stretching and retracting, intimidating the wild boar opposite it.

"A clod of earth, it's a clod of earth!" Cheng Rongjiang exclaimed excitedly upon seeing the snake.

He was bitten by a burrowing plant and almost lost his life.

"Xiao Kun, this wild boar also eats snakes?" Chang Dashan was a little confused. He only knew that wild boars eat fruits and tender leaves.

"Dad, wild boars are omnivorous, and they sometimes eat meat. This one probably just ran into a snake and wanted a change of pace."

After a few quiet exchanges, Chang Kun picked up his gun and aimed it.

The two men behind Cheng Rongjiang also had guns in hand, ready to fire a follow-up shot if Chang Kun missed.

Chang Kun pulled the trigger, and with a bang, the wild boar fell to the ground.

When Tuqiuzi saw the wild boar in front of him suddenly fall to the ground, he was startled. He quickly lowered his body, scurried into the grass, and disappeared in a few moments.

Seeing this, Cheng Rongjiang felt a little scared and said:

"That's what happened to me last time; I got bitten by a clod of dirt that crawled out of the grass."

Upon seeing the wild boar fall to the ground, Chang Dashan was overjoyed and jumped up to run towards it.

Chang Kun stopped his father and pointed to the mountainside:

"Dad, I'll go first. There are a lot of snakes under those rocks. Let's catch them clean before we carry the pig."

He led the way and came to a rock.

"Uncle Cheng, there's a snake under this rock."

The two men behind Cheng Rongjiang were already impressed by Chang Kun's skill in finding prey. One reached out to lift a rock, while the other held a Y-shaped branch, ready to spear the snake.

"Try to catch them alive." Cheng Rongjiang rubbed his hands together, looking somewhat expectant.

If he can catch ten or eight snakes today, that will be enough for him to study for a while.

The stone was lifted, and before the snake underneath could react, it was impaled on the ground by a branch and couldn't move.

"Another clod of dirt. Looks like this hillside is full of these things."

Several people worked together to pack the soil balls into specially made burlap sacks.

"Little Kun, you're really something! How did you know there was a snake under that rock?"

Cheng Rongjiang circled the stone several times, but couldn't figure it out.

"Uncle Cheng, you'll understand once you see it a lot; it's hard to explain."

Chang Kun smiled. He had a system, so of course he knew where the snake was hiding.

Two hours later, after catching all the snakes on half the hillside, Cheng Rongjiang was completely convinced.

Fortunately, Chang Kun was there. Otherwise, with so many snakes on the hillside, if one suddenly ran out from somewhere and bit someone, it would be no joke.

Chang Kun acted like a radar, directing them to catch snakes.

More than twenty were caught in total, far exceeding Rongjiang's expectations.

After catching all the snakes on the hillside, Chang Kun approached the wild boar with a delighted expression.

This wild boar weighs about 300 pounds. We'll take the pig's trotters back to my older sister to make soup, hoping it will help her produce milk.

Ideally, the remaining pork could be traded for a bicycle, making it easier for my parents to commute to and from work.

"Uncle Cheng, at our research institute, can I trade this wild boar for a bicycle?"

Chang Kun's connections in the city are relatively weak; he only knows people in the supply and marketing cooperative, the police station, the research institute, and the street office.

"Xiao Kun, you want to trade this pig for a bicycle? That's easy! Go find your Brother Cheng!"

They often find unclaimed bicycles when they catch stolen goods, but they don't have new ones. You can go take a look and take what you like.

Upon hearing this, Chang Kun smiled.

Everyone says that having connections in the central government makes things easier, and the bicycle issue was resolved so easily.

The group of five dragged the wild boar back to the village.

As they passed the village entrance, the villagers erupted in excitement once again.

They inwardly groaned, wondering why all the good things had happened to the Chang family. They had killed several wild boars and even a black bear. It was simply outrageous!

Moreover, I heard that Chang Kun got a job by trading the black bear he hunted, and his whole family started eating government-supplied food.

The villagers who also went into the mountains to hunt were utterly ashamed to face this sight.

They can no longer make excuses that there are no wild boars in the mountains. Just like the air force fishermen can no longer say there are no fish in the water.

When we dragged the wild boar home, it was only a little past four in the afternoon.

Liu Meifen had returned from her younger brother's house and was happily strolling around the yard with her baby in her arms.

When she saw Chang Kun and Chang Dashan dragging back the wild boar, her eyes lit up, and she ran over laughing.

"My son has hunted a wild boar again!"

Hearing the commotion, the four Mei sisters, Mei Qing and Mu Xiu, also ran out of the house.

When Chang Kun dragged the wild boar, wolf, and black bear home, all three of his younger sisters had seen it.

When they saw their eldest brother bring back the wild boar, they were not surprised, but jumped and danced with joy.

But Chang Mei was different; she had only heard that her younger brother was a skilled hunter, and this was the first time she had witnessed it firsthand.

She went back to her parents' home in the morning, and in the afternoon she saw her younger brother dragging back a large wild boar. Her eyes widened in shock.

Is this mountain near my home overrun with wild boars?

Before she got married, she hadn't heard of anyone hunting wild boars for many years.

Now, her younger brother has already killed a wild boar in less than a day. If it hadn't happened right in front of her, she definitely wouldn't have believed it.

Liu Meifen and Chang Dashan had already taken out cleavers to gut the wild boar.

Along the way, Cheng Rongjiang and his companions helped drag the wild boar, putting in a lot of effort.

They opened the abdomen, drained the blood, removed the internal organs, and cut off three large pieces of fat from the thick belly, giving one piece to each of Cheng Rongjiang and the other two.

Cheng Rongjiang and the other two were all beaming with joy. They had only wanted Chang Kun to catch some venomous snakes with them.

Now, not only have they exceeded their targets, but they've also gained a huge amount of extra weight, almost ten pounds.

These days, although city dwellers receive two ounces of meat coupons every month, buying meat is still incredibly difficult!

The state-run food station only gets a tiny amount of meat each month, and you can't buy any even if you queue up in the middle of the night!

As for buying meat on the black market?

That depends on how much money you have. The price of meat on the black market is three to five times higher than the price at the food station.

"Xiao Kun, this meat is pretty good, then I won't be polite."

I'll ride my bike back and call Cheng Jie to come and get the pigs. You can discuss the bike issue with him.

Chang Kun nodded and went out to see Cheng Rongjiang off.

Inside the courtyard, Liu Meifen beamed with joy and waved her hand.

"Xiaomei, go start the fire, we'll render the oil and eat the cracklings."

The little girls were shouting with joy; they had really enjoyed the fried pork cracklings last time.

Chang Mei went to tend the fire and render oil.

Chang Qing and Chang Mu started a fire in the yard to singe off the hair on the pig's trotters, and soon the yard was filled with a stench.

Liu Meifen and Chang Dashan were dealing with the sewage.

Xiao Changxiu ran over to her older brother's side:

"Big pot, big pot, stinky poop, want candy..."

Chang Kun held Xiao Bao in one arm, took out a few pieces of milk candy from his spatial storage, and stuffed one into the little girl's mouth.

The little girl squinted her eyes and ran to her two older sisters to show off.

Chang Kun unwrapped the candy and gave a piece to his younger sister, older sister, father, and mother.

The family ate milk candy and laughed as they cleaned up the wild boar; the taste of happiness sweetened everyone's hearts.

Chang Qing roasted the pig's trotters for a while, and when he saw that they were almost done, he threw the trotters aside and went up to Chang Kun: "Big brother, let's go catch some baby birds, big sister loves to eat them."

Chang Kun patted Chang Qing's head. This little sister still remembered that her older sister liked to eat cicadas. It was good that he hadn't spoiled her for nothing.

Upon hearing this, Changmei went into the courtyard and recalled that before she got married, she had always been the one leading her younger siblings to catch cicadas.

Only a year or two has passed, and I've already had a child. I can never go back to my old life.

Chang Kun saw his eldest sister looking outside with a longing expression, and knew that she was reminiscing about the old days.

He said to his mother, "Mom, you go and boil the oil. I'll take my older sister and younger sister to catch seasonal birds."

Upon hearing this, the little girls cheered and skipped to their eldest sister's side, surrounding her as they walked out.

"Big sister, hurry up! Big brother is really good at catching seasonal birds!"
