Chapter 191: People are all climbing up, dirty things.
"Wow, that's not bad, Comrade Lao Wang. There are seven piglets weighing 70 to 80 kilograms, and a sow weighing more than 100 kilograms. You were able to encounter all of these, and you captured them all alive? It's really strange. This can be considered a group of wild boars. After all, it stands to reason that such big wild boars will not follow a sow. But you actually encountered them? You, Daoxiang Village, deserve to be rich."
Xu Dongsheng and his three companions came to a valley near the mountains at the end of the village. It was a natural inverted cone-shaped valley surrounded by spikes made of various wooden sticks. Wild boars could not escape and things from outside could not get in. Once they entered, they could not get out. This place was close to the mountains and there might be wolves. If a wolf got in, it would only die inside.
Because there is a group of wild boars locked up inside, and there is a lot of pig grass and other feed on the ground. If a wolf or something gets in, the group of wild boars will surround it, and the tiger will also be defeated.
Xu Dongsheng looked at the eight pigs in total and thought, how could Niu Dadan and his friends encounter such a good thing? There was a little green growing in the area near the mountain. The big trees on the mountain had been cut down to be used as firewood for steelmaking. In this way, when the green tent was raised, the tigers, leopards, bears and wolves in the mountain would go down the mountain and enter the village from time to time. However, Niu Dadan and his friends not only did not encounter these, but also managed to get a group of wild boars in such an environment, which was also a skill.
"It's all because God couldn't bear to see people starving to death in Daoxiang Village. Brother Dongsheng, take a look at how heavy these wild boars are. How much meat can we get if we kill them?"
Hearing Xu Dongsheng's words, Niu Dadan's dark face showed joy. He remembered what Xu Dongsheng said on the way and hurriedly asked him how much meat could be obtained from selling these pigs.
"Well, there are a total of about 770 kilograms of wild boars here. If you kill them for pork, you can get about 400 kilograms. 90 cents a kilogram is definitely not enough. The highest price I can give is 70 cents. Although you have fed these wild boars, they are mostly lean meat. This price is already the limit. I am not exaggerating. No matter who comes, no one can give this price.
So it is about two hundred and eighty yuan. Two hundred and eighty yuan, according to the market conditions in our old city, can buy about three thousand kilograms of the worst corn grits on the black market. Each family in Daoxiangcun can get more than one hundred kilograms of grain, and can also earn some pork offal, with each family getting about ten kilograms of pork offal.
If I sell them on a live basis, the price I can offer is only 50 cents, no higher. I have to go to other places to get some things to balance the price. Otherwise, if I help everyone and the factory, I will have to pay for it myself, and no one will do it.
At 50 cents per pound, that's about 390 yuan. How much more corn grits can you buy? I think you know better than me."
Although Zhou Zhenghua said the price was one yuan per pound, these wild boars are not fat pigs. This is business and friendship. He has already given Wang Wanchun and others the maximum purchase amount. If it is higher, it would be too outrageous and might cause misunderstanding.
"Well, Secretary Wang, what do you think?"
Ma Renli is, after all, the descendant of a landlord, and it is impossible for him to be exploited. Even in the most difficult times now, Ma Renli can still eat soft food and steamed buns with grain. Naturally, he goes to the city often, and he has many friends and knows more about the situation.
He knew that the purchase price Xu Dongsheng mentioned was already the highest price in the world, but the price of grain on the black market that Xu Dongsheng mentioned was too low. Even corn grits were only 0.2 yuan on the black market. It was more expensive than in Beijing. Of course, how long had it been since Xu Dongsheng went to the black market in Beijing? He might not know what the black market price was, but the purchase price Xu Dongsheng gave was definitely the highest price in the world.
"Don't look at me. Is there any need to say this? Since Brother Dongsheng has already said that live pigs are the most cost-effective, I think it's better to sell live pigs. It's not worth it to use food to buy those pig offal."
Ma Renli looked at Wang Wanchun, and Wang Wanchun looked at Niu Dadan. Niu Dadan was a rough man, but he was a real farmer and knew what was most important. He immediately told Xu Dongsheng that they should sell the pigs alive.
"Well, fine, you can make a decision, but you have to bother me at Secretary Wang's house tonight. We have to weigh them as early as tomorrow morning, and then I will chase these wild boars back."
After the discussion, Xu Dongsheng said that he would stay overnight at Wang Wanchun's house, weigh the boar tomorrow morning, and then chase the wild boar back by himself.
"This? Brother Dongsheng, are you kidding? You're chasing this herd of wild boars back to Sijiu City by yourself? There's a lot of roads to go through, and we have to cross mountains and ridges. If we run into the woods, we're done for."
Hearing Xu Dongsheng only say that he would sleep here for one night, and then he would chase this group of wild boars to the capital? What a joke!
"You will find out tomorrow."
Xu Dongsheng did not explain much, and then the group of people returned to the village. When the four of them returned to the village, they saw Zhao Youtian and his wife and a few others carrying pig grass and heading towards the wild boar herd. They did not say hello to Xu Dongsheng and the others, and just went there as if they did not see them. Xu Dongsheng knew that they were going to feed the pigs.
"Ah, the wild boar hasn't been fed tonight yet. Arita and the others should go feed it."
Zhao Youtian and the others were so smart, but it was just too embarrassing. They were giving the wild boar a snack as a meal, and Xu Dongsheng saw it. However, Xu Dongsheng didn't care about it, just said a word of agreement, and then talked about weighing it tomorrow.
Although there was no extra grain in the village to make wine, Wang Wanchun's family and Ma Renli's family still took out two bottles of Erguotou. The four of them drank four bottles of Erguotou together. Xu Dongsheng was fine, but Ma Renli and Niu Dadan were carried back by Qiao Yue and Han Meili, not to mention Wang Wanchun.
Wang Wanchun had no children, just the couple. Xu Dongsheng helped send Wang Wanchun back to his room, and then he went back to the room arranged for him to prepare for sleep.
"Get out, don't make me angry."
It was midnight and Xu Dongsheng had not fallen asleep yet. But at this time Xu Dongsheng felt some movement and yelled. The person was frightened by Xu Dongsheng. She did not expect Xu Dongsheng was not drunk. When she came to pick up Ma Renli, she saw that Xu Dongsheng seemed to be drunk and thought he was drunk. Unexpectedly, Xu Dongsheng's alcohol tolerance was so strong. Each of them drank a pound of Erguotou. Niu Dadan and the others were all drunk, but Xu Dongsheng was not.
And it was as if she could see people in the dark. Her eyes were dark and shiny in the darkness, but the low scolding voice scared her so much that she quickly ran out of the house and went to her home.
"Brother Dongsheng, are you feeling unwell?"
Perhaps it was Xu Dongsheng's low scolding that woke up Wang Wanchun's wife, or perhaps it was the noise of the figure leaving that woke her up. She came to the door and asked Xu Dongsheng, thinking that Xu Dongsheng was drunk and feeling unwell.
"It's okay, Sister Wang, you should go to bed early."
Xu Dongsheng responded. He wanted to get angry about the man's arrival, but then he smiled bitterly and felt relieved. It seemed normal. It was all because of the disaster. After all, Xu Damao was so popular in the countryside, let alone him? In any world, people want to climb up and hope to live a better life. But he didn't expect that he would also encounter someone who wanted to climb up to him to change his life.
This dirty thing happened. The most important thing is that Qiao Yue really thought too much of him... Never mind, anyway, the matter has been stopped and it won't affect him.
