Siheyuan: The road to counterattack for the little transparent
Chapter 20 Sweet Burden
For a moment, Yi Zhonghai was speechless and had to remain silent.
This is a relatively transparent era. The income and expenditure of every household are laid out in the open. Even if we don't know each other's situation in detail, we can always guess it pretty close.
As for his family's situation, everyone in the courtyard with a discerning eye knew that they didn't need to worry about food at all. After all, they had enough money and tickets, so there was no need to take the risk of going to the Pigeon Market.
But he couldn't just tell the truth directly. He had to consider what the people in the hospital would think if he knew. He also had to consider whether his wife would have weird thoughts if she knew.
Seeing that Yi Zhonghai had no intention of answering his question, Lin Donglai did not continue asking, and both of them fell silent.
After a while, Yi Zhonghai finally remembered something. Seeing that he had nothing in his hands, he deliberately asked, "Donglai, what do you want to buy when you come here tonight?"
As the saying goes, if you don’t do bad things, you won’t be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door.
Lin Donglai spread his hands and smiled, "I'm just wandering around. I didn't buy anything after walking around. The things I liked were too expensive and I couldn't afford them.
I came here to see if the price of game here is higher than that of the steel mill. I asked a few stalls and found that the difference was not much, so I stopped worrying about it.
Yi Zhonghai then remembered that his wife had whispered in his ear two mornings ago that the Yan family was saying everywhere in the yard that the kid from the Lin family had killed a wild boar in the mountains and sold it to the steel mill for a lot of money.
After discussing it, the couple agreed that this was definitely not true. It seemed that Yan Bugui and his wife just made it up for fun.
Lin Donglai's words showed that he had really hunted wild game before, so he couldn't help but ask, "Donglai, I heard that you went into the mountains and hunted a wild boar some time ago? Is that true?"
Lin Donglai did not deny it, but asked: "Yes, I not only killed wild boars, but also pheasants, but they were all given to the steel mill. What's wrong with that, old man?"
Yi Zhonghai was very surprised and could not help but look at Lin Donglai from head to toe. He found that this kid had grown taller than himself since some time ago. His body was straighter than before and he seemed stronger than before. His eyes were bright and he looked very energetic.
I secretly sighed in my heart, this kid looks better than Shazhu, and he has become eloquent, a good seedling. His physique is even better. After all, these days, apart from professional hunters, there are very few people who can kill wild boars alone.
The only pity is that this guy doesn't have a formal job and has a sister who is a burden, which does not meet my requirements after all.
Lin Donglai didn't know what Yi Zhonghai was thinking. If he knew, he would definitely spit three times on his old face to vent his anger.
Not getting an answer, Lin Donglai asked again, and Yi Zhonghai was pulled back from his thoughts: "It's okay, Donglai, I was thinking that next time you find game, you can bring it back to the yard and sell it to everyone. We are all neighbors, right?"
So this was the idea. Lin Donglai immediately refused: "Uncle, it's not that I don't want to take it back to the hospital. It's really that Section Chief Su of your factory's purchasing department won't let me. He said that no matter what kind of food it is, the factory will take it."
"In that case, forget it." Yi Zhonghai quickly replied after hearing that. A higher-ranking official can crush a person, and he didn't want to offend the factory's purchasing chief. After all, this person could talk directly to the factory director.
There was no need to continue the conversation. Lin Donglai yawned and said, "Okay, uncle. I feel a little sleepy and want to go home. Do you want to go together?"
Yi Zhonghai refused. He was worried that on the way back, the boy would start to wonder why he went to Pigeon City to buy food tonight, and he was afraid that he would not be able to give a good answer.
Lin Donglai did not force him and went back to the courtyard alone under the cover of night. He fell asleep as soon as he got home.
Perhaps because he stayed up late, he overslept and did not get up early as usual. He didn't even know when his sister left for school.
I half-leaned on the pillow and looked out the window in a daze. The sunlight was a bit dazzling. It seemed that it was almost noon. It was obviously not a good time to go fishing today.
At this moment, the familiar mechanical female voice sounded in my mind.
[Ding! Today's sign-in reward has arrived, please confirm whether you have received it! ]
After receiving steamed buns for several days in a row, Lin Donglai was a little disappointed with the system's reward and just replied numbly, "Check."
[Host confirmed receipt, today's reward: one pound of White Rabbit milk candy]
This stingy system finally gave different prizes. Although not much, it was better than two steamed buns every time.
White Rabbit milk candy is a rare thing these days. Many children have never had it. Even my sister may not have had it. I guess she smiled so hard when she ate it after school.
The little girl was sensible after all. Seeing that her brother was not awake, she cooked porridge before going to school. Lin Donglai filled her stomach with pickles.
After peeling a White Rabbit milk candy and putting it in his mouth, Lin Donglai entered the space with a flash of thought and put the rest of the candies into the small wooden house in the space.
Then I walked around the cabin again and found some different places.
The green grass in front of the wooden house seemed to be thinner and lighter in color due to the rabbits' constant nibbling. When I got closer, I found that the grass that had been nibbled had sprouted new leaves again.
The spring water has not changed at all, it is still gurgling, clear and you can see the bottom. I scooped a handful of clear spring water and drank it, it was as sweet as before.
Lin Donglai looked up and saw the bags of seeds he bought at the Pigeon Market. He picked up the bags and walked to the wooden house. The scene in front of him almost stunned him.
I saw holes one after another on the black soil, a lot more than the last time I came in. Hearing the noise, the rabbits all poked their heads out and looked around curiously.
After a while, the mother rabbit led the little rabbits out of the hole, jumping and hopping. In a moment, the whole black land was full of rabbits. I counted them and there were nearly thirty rabbits, big and small.
The reproduction capacity of these wild rabbits is too strong. If this continues, this piece of land will be ruined. We have to get rid of some of the rabbits as soon as possible.
Pheasants are fine, they don't dig holes and just dig for food in the grass or black soil. Once you start planting things in the land, you can divide it into pieces and fence them off and everything will be fine.
Lin Donglai shook his head helplessly. These little things were really a sweet burden and a real headache.
As long as the rabbit is not taken care of, the black soil in the space will be useless. Thinking of this, Lin Donglai couldn't help feeling anxious.
Then I thought, why not sell all the big rabbits to the steel mill, and raise the small ones on the grass. According to the growth rate in that space, it won't take long for the small rabbits to grow into big rabbits.
However, hares cannot appear out of thin air, so you need to find a suitable name. For example, hunting and catching hares like before is a good way.
But anyone with a discerning eye would know that it is unlikely to catch more than ten rabbits in one hunt. It seems that it would be difficult to catch all the rabbits in the space in one day.
Lin Donglai thought for a long time, but couldn't think of a better way. He finally decided to go into the mountains as soon as possible...
