night.

The cold wind outside the window whimpered, like countless evil ghosts crying in a low voice.

In the warm back room of Xu Yong's house, Xu Dahai and Xu Dahai chatted and told interesting things about their childhood.

From time to time, bursts of laughter echoed in the room.

Xu Yong's wife took a pair of shoes and asked Wang Xiuxiu for advice on how to make shoes.

As for Xiao Tingzi, she was whispering something to Xu Yong's daughter, as if they were afraid that adults would hear, so they covered her hands with their hands and talked close to their ears.

As for Xu Yong’s son.

The boy was lying on the kang crookedly, twisting his body, throwing a peanut into the air, and then catching it with his mouth.

"Dad! Look, I'm better than our dog, I can catch it too!"

"Okay, you brat, just be honest for a while, and you'll go crazy."

Time passed slowly.

When it was almost nine o'clock, Xu Yong suddenly thought of something and asked his wife to go to another room and bring two bottles of liquor.

"Brother Hai, you are well-informed. Please help me control your eyes. How is this wine?"

"Let me take a look."

Xu Dahai took two bottles of wine, put one on the kang, and looked at the other.

Xiao Tingzi crawled over to join in the fun like a little puppy, but soon lost interest and continued to play tricks with Xu Yong's daughter.

"The Longquan Spring Special Liquid in the green glass bottle is pretty good." Xu Dahai said with a smile.

"Does this wine also come in a moon bottle? The green glass bottle is more expensive than the moon bottle?"

“嗯呐,绿玻璃瓶的3块2毛2一瓶,月亮瓶的2块3毛9一瓶。“

Xu Dahai smiled and said:

"My third uncle bought it before. There is also a kind of Phoenix bottle. It costs 2 yuan and 1 cents a bottle."

He didn't ask Xu Yong where he got the wine. It was probably given by someone else. When he saw that the time was almost up, he planned to leave.

Xu Yong said quickly:

"Brother Hai, do you remember that there is a pond across the two forks of the river to the east?

I walked southeast from the southwest corner of the pond, and I didn't go far before I met the cannon egg!

Brother Hai, if you have time tomorrow, you can go over and take a look. It should be easy to find my footprints.

If you follow my footprints, you can find the footprints left by Cannon Egg. "

"Okay, I'll go take a look tomorrow."

Xu Yong's calf was injured and he had difficulty moving, so his wife sent Xu Dahai's family of three away on his behalf.

Waiting to see Xu Dahai and his family of three walk away.

Xu Yong's wife returned to the house with a flashlight and said:

"My brother also hunts. Why don't you tell my brother about the cannonball? Why, the relationship with my brother will be much closer."

"Come on, my brother-in-law can not only eat, but also laugh?

The distance was more than 50 meters, and he didn't even know where the bullet would fly. "

"You...that's because he didn't hunt enough. Hello, you are so good, but in the end, you still let the wild boar buck your leg? Did your wound only break a layer of skin?"

……

the other side.

After returning home.

Xu Dahai pulled out a few scraps of paper from under the kang mat, took another piece of straw paper, filled the pen with ink, twisted it and started writing on the paper.

"What are you writing about? It's time for us to wash our feet and go to bed."

Wang Xiuxiu brought a basin of hot water into the house, put the basin on the ground, and came over to take a look curiously.

“Calculate how much money was made through Wada’s bold trade.”

I saw it written on the paper:

The chickens, ducks and geese purchased by Pan Laoliu and others cost 47652 yuan.

The wild boar, roe deer, hare, etc. purchased by Pan Laoliu and others - 12840 yuan.

Roe deer raised at home - 40628 yuan.

Black Blind King - 10750 yuan.

"The money from selling the Black Blind King will have to be divided with a few other people, right?" Wang Xiuxiu said with a smile.

The tips of her hair brushed Xu Dahai's face, and the latter could smell a light fragrance.

"Yes, we have been waiting for so long. Fortunately, we are not afraid of being late for a good meal."

Xu Dahai smiled and said:

"The items above are all pure profits after deducting costs. The last item about Black Blind King - well, there is no cost to defeat Black Blind King, and it is also pure profit."

Finally, adding up the first three items, the total net profit is 10 yuan.

Wang Xiuxiu hurried to Westinghouse to count the money again to see if the amount was correct.

She came back quickly, and the smile on her face showed that the number was correct.

The night was getting darker.

After Xiao Tingzi fell asleep, the couple tossed around again, and then fell asleep hugging each other.

Early the next morning.

Xu Dahai took Gouzi to find his cousin Xu Hu. The latter knew that he had to go into the mountains to chase wild boars. He was also very happy and quickly went into the house to get a gun.

"Fourth brother, do you want to bring some dry food?"

"I brought sticky bean buns, wine and some sweet potatoes."

"Okay, I'll get two more meat buns."

Xu Hu carried the shotgun and basket on his back, and pinched the little faces of his son and daughter before going out:

"You two, listen to your mother and I'll give you whole pork to eat!"

Liu Hong frowned slightly and repeatedly told her men to pay attention to safety.

……

The mountain was blocked by heavy snow, and the two of them walked eastward with their four dogs. When they crossed the forks of two rivers, they saw many holes in the ice.

The ice cave was frozen again.

It's just that there are a lot of broken ice, silt, and long small fish frozen together with the ice.

"Wow~"

The head dog jumped over with a green back, trying to pick up the fish on the ice. Unfortunately, there was a layer of ice on the surface of the fish, and it was frozen with the ice on the river, so it couldn't be picked up at all.

"Gouzi, come back!"

Xu Dahai shouted, and the dog jumped back.

Next to him, his cousin Xu Hu walked side by side with him and said with a smile:

"Sun Guangcai really harvested a lot of fish and made a fortune. Yesterday I went to the countryside and saw them driving three trucks to transport fish.

The three trucks were loaded with fish and drove away. There were still many fish left in the yard. "

Soon after they arrived at the pond, the two of them took the dog straight to the southwest corner, looking for Xu Yong's footprints.

"Fourth brother, I heard from my father that silver was found in this pond more than ten years ago? Is that true?" Xu Hu said while looking for footprints.

"This is what happened. We were still a production team at that time. In the summer, a few people found silver while bathing in the pond.

As a result, someone was lax and yelled wildly, and someone reported it. "

"Where's the silver?"

"Collect it." Xu Dahai pointed not far ahead and said with a smile: "These footprints should be left by Xu Yong. They are indeed going southeast. Follow the footprints."

The two of them took the dog and followed the footprints forward.

In less than half an hour, I saw scattered footprints of wild boar, and in addition there was some cotton on the ground.

"This cotton should be from Xu Yong's cotton pants."

Xu Dahai looked sharply at the direction where the wild boar's footprints left, and took off the shotgun from his shoulder:

"This cannon egg is a bit fierce, Huzi, we should be more vigilant and stay out of his way!"

"Well, it's almost the New Year's Eve, and I don't want to spend the New Year lying on the kang!"

Xu Hu also held the shotgun in his hand.
