Chapter 160 Luck
Li Xuewu just listened and didn't talk to him. The kang was very warm, so he took off the rabbit skin to cover his legs and sat cross-legged on the kang to listen to Mr. Zhao's talk about ancient times.

Mr. Zhao held a cigarette, squinted his eyes and recalled: "That year when Wu Dapao came to the mountains to recruit soldiers, he fell in love with the soldiers in the mountains. Because of his good legs, he can endure hardships. He is stupid and ignorant."

After finishing speaking, he smiled "hehe", and said: "Soldiers who don't know anything dare to charge up with guns, so they were willing to catch them from the mountains back then, but at the foot of the emperor, there are people watching. If you don't want to, you can't take it."

Li Xuewen sneered and said, "Who would want to be a soldier when the army was in chaos?"

Mr. Zhao sighed and said, "I'd rather be a dog of peace than a person in a troubled world. There's no reason for that at that time."

After finishing speaking, he pointed down the mountain and said: "Call all the lads of our time over to ask who would like to be a soldier and eat food. Two of them who were really hungry signed up, and the rest shrank their heads and didn't dare to ask. face to face"

Li Xuewen sighed, "Where can I hide?"

Mr. Zhao also nodded and said: "The leader saw that no one signed up, so he took off our shoes and let us stay on the kang."

Li Xuewen asked, "Why do you stay on the kang?"

Hearing this, Li Xuewu's expression paused slightly, as if he had thought of something.

Mr. Zhao said bitterly: "At first we didn't know what to do, but then the leader asked his soldiers to add more firewood, and some soldiers stood on the ground and kept asking if anyone would like to be a soldier. If you say a word, you agree to enlist in the army."

Li Xuewu echoed embarrassingly: "This trick is really bad."

Mr. Zhao said: "It's not a big deal. Wu Zhankui, Han Laoliu, and Ding Feng in the village couldn't hold on, but they were recruited away with just a slap."

Li Xuewen asked, "How did you persist?"

Mr. Zhao smiled wryly and said, "I'm an Orion, and the soles of my feet are covered with dead lumps when I go up and down the mountain. I don't feel the heat anymore. In fact, the leader likes Orion because he shoots accurately."

Li Xuewu continued the topic and asked: "Just now Yajun told me that you will train hunting dogs?"

Mr. Zhao smiled "hehe" and said, "It's all about eating."

With a judgment in his mind, Li Xuewu asked, "If I send the dog to you, how long will it take to train it well? To what extent can it be trained?"

Mr. Zhao questioned: "Why are you asking this? Want one? I'll get it for you. Lao Liu is old and can't go up the mountain anymore."

Li Xuewu explained: "I don't want it, I want to see if it can be used to inspect items, such as workpieces, etc. Some workers in the rolling mill have dirty hands, and checking every day is a bit wasteful of manpower."

The eldest brother Xuewen introduced Li Xuewu's work to several members of the Zhao family in a timely manner.

Only then did Mr. Zhao know that Li Xuewu was the chief of the security section of the rolling mill, and his official position was not considered small.

Mr. Zhao asked: "Do you want to use hunting dogs to check for theft?"

Li Xuewu nodded and said: "I have such an idea. The factory guards are usually short-staffed. I thought it would be much more convenient if there were police dogs on patrol, and it would be easier to find problems."

Mr. Zhao nodded and said: "The hunting dog is smart. Find a mature one and train it for two days, but the effect is average. If you train it from a young age, it will be fine. You can train it in one year."

Li Xuewu nodded and asked, "Master, can you get me a hunting dog? I'll pay for it. I want to take it back to the rolling mill for a try."

Li Xuewen interrupted: "Xue Wu, you have to ask your leaders, besides, your guards don't know how to use hounds."

Seeing Mr. Zhao looking at him, Li Xuewu said: "Try it first, the leader can talk about it later."

When Mr. Zhao saw that Li Xuewu was sure, he said, "Lao Liu's one will do. I'll take you there after dinner."

Li Xuewu nodded and stopped talking about this, but asked: "Master, is there a lot of prey in our mountain?"

Zhao Gen came in wiping his hands, apparently just finished packing the rabbits and chickens with his eldest son, and answered Li Xuewu's question: "Xuewu, we have everything in this mountain, golden eagles flying in the sky, black storks, gray cranes, falcons, Tigers running on the ground, clouded leopards, wolves, red foxes, wild boars, roe deer, rabbits, pheasants, Agkistrodon, red snakes, king snakes, herring, grass carp, silver carp, bighead carp, crucian carp swimming in the water , carp, pout fish, male fish"

"Nowadays, few people fall into the trap at the bottom of the mountain, and they are all busy with the work in the commune. Yamin and Yajun just take a trip before dark, just try their luck, and they can't go far away."

Li Xuewu questioned: "Can you hunt it?"

Followed in, Zhao Yajun replied: "Whether you can or not, it depends on your luck, but my grandfather and my father can hunt live ones."

Mr. Zhao smiled wryly: "It's useless to hunt, you can only eat it at home, and it's dangerous if you work hard, not to mention the delay, it's not worth it, no one is going up now."

Li Xuewu knew what Mr. Zhao meant. It is not allowed to sell meat and furs privately now. The supply and marketing cooperatives have not collected wild animals from here. It is not easy to go out of the mountain once, so no one wants to hunt.

Li Xuewu thought for a while but didn't say anything, some things had to be done slowly.

After Zhao Gen finished wiping his hands, he said to Zhao Yajun, "Go, tell your uncle to go."

Zhao Yajun ran out as soon as he agreed.

Then Zhao Gen said to Li Xuewu: "The child's uncle is the secretary of the village. He came after you left just now and said he came to see you and asked him to have a meal with you."

According to the current rules in the countryside, if there are guests with more status at home, but the status of your own family is not high, you will usually invite your relatives with status to come and accompany the wine.

Accompanying wine here is not the meaning that later became a derogatory term.

Li Xuewu nodded hurriedly and said: "Old man, you are welcome. I wear this clothes because I am too lazy to ride a bicycle. I am afraid that I will not be able to explain clearly on the road. It is not to separate our relatives. It is to ask uncle to come over for dinner together." should"

Zhao Gen was very useful when he heard Li Xuewu's words. Rural people are most particular about relative etiquette, and they are afraid that there will be a fool among relatives.

This in-law's tutor really has nothing to say, these two boys are impeccable in speaking and doing things, and they look like people on the scene, much better than my uncle in dealing with people.

To be a section chief in a rolling mill is a remarkable person, even more arrogant than a township chief.

Besides, he is still under 20 years old, and he doesn't feel arrogance at all when he speaks.

Thinking of my uncle, Zhao Gen is also very satisfied. Although he is not a powerful person, he is educated, kind-hearted, honest and honest.

The most important thing is to be sincere to my daughter, and to respect my family even more, and my in-laws also take care of my family a lot.

The eldest brother Xuewen was very happy to hear his younger brother's words, and felt that his younger brother gave his father-in-law face to make himself face, so his face was full of joy.
