Chapter 33 hunting

Although Yiyang County is making great efforts to build a city to attract investment, Rome was not built in a day, and Yiyang cannot become a modern city in a short time.Take the hotel as an example, only Yiyang Hotel can afford it a little bit. After the addition of facilities, it barely got three stars. The bosses who visited Yiyang this time all lived in Yiyang Hotel. Li Jing lived on the ninth floor, and when Hou Weidong called early the next morning, she had just showered, was wearing cool pajamas, and was sitting by the window looking down at Yiyang's head. The county town is constantly developing, some of which are half new and most of which are old. Walking on the streets, they can still be decorated by advertisements and lights.But looking down on the county town from high-rise buildings, the shortcomings of the county town can be seen at a glance. The gray prefabricated parts constitute the main color of the county town, and the sundries on the roof give people a sense of mess.

The development of a county town into a big city is usually a long road, requiring the efforts of countless people, even one or two generations.This is the same as human development. It takes at least several generations of transformation for a commoner family to become an aristocrat. Li Jing silently looked down at Yiyang County, even with a somewhat melancholy expression.When the knock on the door sounded, she knew it was Hou Weidong who had arrived. When the door opened, Hou Weidong saw a charming face, slightly wet long hair, and a faint water stain on his chest. "Weidong, you didn't come to accompany me last night. You married a wife and forgot your friends."

As soon as Li Jing said that, Hou Weidong was startled.If Xiao Jia heard these words, she would not be able to clean up even if she jumped into the Yellow River.He hastily changed the subject and said, "Boss Zhang likes hunting, can you contact me about this?" Li Jing and Hou Weidong went to Zhang Mushan's room together. "Mr. Zhang, what are your plans this morning? Weidong and I will accompany you to Shangqinglin to hunt." Zhang Mushan regained his energy immediately, and said, "When it comes to hunting, I feel itchy in my heart, but this earthen gun is too tasteless to shoot. The county armed forces department has an arsenal. Let's get some Type 5 and Type 6 semi-automatic rifles, so that we can fight like this." Wild boars have a taste." He was confident in making this request.The last time I was in Linjiang County, the county asked the armed forces to fire their guns, and a group of people went hunting on Yunshan Mountain.

Hou Weidong didn't expect that Zhang Mushan would make such a request, and he said awkwardly: "The control of guns is quite strict." Zhang Mushan deliberately made things difficult for Hou Weidong, saying: "Our country has very strict control over firearms, but the county party committee will come forward, and the armed forces department will still support it. If I can't get a rifle, I'm going back to Lingxi. Stall thing." "I'll ask." Hou Weidong had no choice but to agree. When Hou Weidong left the room, Li Jing smiled and said: "Mr. Zhang, don't forget what you said last time."

Zhang Mushan said: "Li Jing, Jinggong Group was established not long ago. Although it is only a subcontracted project, the amount is not small. If you can't do it, you must pay according to the agreement." Hou Weidong found Liu Tao from the comprehensive department. How dare Liu Tao accept this kind of thing, so he took Hou Weidong to the office of Ji Haiyang, the director of the committee. Ji Haiyang is the office director who has joined the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee. Although he ranks low in the Standing Committee, his words are very effective.He scolded: "These bosses think that being rich is great. He is a rigid man, and he still wants to use a Type 5 or 6 rifle." He added, "Why do you think of taking him hunting?"

Hou Weidong explained: "My main intention is to invite Mr. Zhang to Shangqinglin to have a look at the situation." "This time to Shangqinglin Mountain, who else is there besides you?" "Director Yang Dajin of the Planning Commission will go with us." Ji Haiyang thought for a while, and said, "Sit for a while, using firearms is also a big deal, and I have to report to Secretary Zhu." He quickly returned to the office, and said, "Secretary Zhu has granted permission for this matter, but it must be handled by the Military Section of the Armed Forces. Comrades will accompany you all the way to ensure safety."

Zhu Yan agreed to the matter so readily, but it put more psychological pressure on Hou Weidong.He also scolded in his heart: "Fucking capitalist, if you give you a little sunshine, it will really shine." It is even more difficult to use the firearms of the armed forces.As the saying goes, the boss is difficult, the boss is difficult, and the boss is not difficult.With the instructions of Secretary Zhu of the county party committee, a section chief and three staff members of the military department of the armed forces were dispatched, drove an off-road vehicle, and soon arrived at Yiyang Hotel.

There are four hunting convoys: one is a military vehicle with a gun; When they arrived at Wangri Village, He Hequan, the village party secretary, and several officials from the village committee were already waiting in the office.Seeing the convoy approaching, several village cadres greeted them, and Hou Weidong introduced He Hequan to the guests. He Hequan specially bought a pack of Hongtashan, and when Zhang Mushan and others got off the car, he took turns smoking.In He Hequan's mind, Hongtashan is the best smoke.Because it was Hou Weidong who was coming, so he ran to Shangqinglin Town and bought the best cigarettes in the market.

In Zhang Mushan's car was his accompanying secretary, Xiao Jia, who was also a smoker.But he smokes for flirtatiousness, he only smokes three or five brands of cigarettes, and he dismisses the domestic Hongtashan.When He Hequan handed him a cigarette, he waved his hand and said, "I don't smoke." Zhang Mushan has a kind of affection for the secretary of the branch with mud marks on his feet.He took the cigarette He Hequan handed over, lit it himself, took a puff, and said to He Hequan, "Secretary He, I'm going to trouble you today." He Hequan has been a rural cadre for many years, and his ability to read words and demeanor is not bad.He could tell that Zhang Mushan was a big shot, and said with a simple and honest smile: "Mayor Hou's friends are all distinguished guests, and we usually can't invite them even if we want to."

Several village cadres surrounded Hou Weidong, and two of them bought a cart for Goubeiwan to pull goods. When they met the authentic boss of Goubeiwan, they were very affectionate. When several soldiers in camouflage uniforms appeared in front of several villagers with Type 5 or 6 semi-automatic rifles, these hunters who had been holding earthen guns for a long time were shocked. Looking at the well-maintained body of the gun, they swallowed unconsciously. Drooled. Hou Weidong said: "Old He, you lead the way, we will go hunting in the mountains." Under the leadership of several village cadres, a group of people walked towards the deep mountain.Shangqinglin's forests are well protected, with high mountains and dense forests. Walking through the forests, birds chirp constantly.

Walking into the dense forest, Zhang Mushan took over a rifle.His gun-holding movements were standard, and several gun inspection movements were also extremely agile. The serious military section chief relaxed his expression and said, "Mr. Zhang served as a soldier?" "I was a soldier in 1972. I used this kind of gun in the army." He patted the body of the gun and said with great interest, "Although this gun is a bit old, it has high accuracy and a good range. I like it very much. Today If you can catch a wild boar, find a farmer, kill it and eat it now, and enjoy the food." When Hou Weidong was a child, he played a pistol with his father Hou Yonggui, but he never touched a rifle.I wanted to shoot a few shots to enjoy myself, but when I saw the nervousness of several staff officers, I retracted my words. Li Jing, Hou Weidong, Liu Tao, and Yang Dajin didn't have guns, so they followed behind the team.The forests are getting denser and the roads are getting more and more difficult.Although Li Jing was in high spirits, her physical strength couldn't keep up.Hou Weidong held her hand, and the two became the tail of the team. After walking for about half an hour, there was a shout in front, followed by a crisp gunshot. "Oh, I don't know how to use a rifle. I really lose face." Hou Weidong also had the blood of a man, and when he heard the gunshots and shouts, he felt that his self-esteem was hurt. "Take a break." Li Jing put one hand on his waist, and withdrew the other hand from Hou Weidong's hand, fanning the wind constantly, sweating on his face, and there were black marks stained from nowhere, and suddenly became a big tabby cat .Hearing Hou Weidong's unconvinced complaints, he said, "There is a shooting club in Lingxi, I will take you there next week, find a good coach, and learn it soon." Hearing the gunshots ahead, Liu Tao and Yang Dajin couldn't hold back anymore, and followed several cadres of the military department into the woods. Hou Weidong wanted to take care of Li Jing, so he fell behind the big team, only to hear scattered gunshots echoing in the forest. "Forget it, I'm not leaving." Li Jing made preparations for hunting, but the grass was deep and dense on the mountain, and her arm was scratched several times by the thatch, and the crystal blood beads hung on her fair skin, which was particularly eye-catching. , not too painful, but it looks very scary. Hou Weidong couldn't leave Li Jing behind. Seeing the big team walking away, he simply said: "Don't leave, they are bringing real guys with them. After the distance is widened, there is a possibility of accidental injury." Li Jing sat on a broken tree stump, sucking the blood on his arm with his mouth.At this time, she was no longer the shrewd Mr. Li, but just a big girl who participated in the spring outing. Hou Weidong was carrying a military water bottle on his back. This was the equipment he had prepared when he was in Shangqinglin and Xiacun. The green exterior paint had peeled off a few small pieces.He raised his head and took a sip, feeling extremely happy, and took a few more sips. Seeing that Li Jing had no water to drink, he asked, "Your water bottle?" "I put it on the car and didn't take it off. Who would have thought it would be so hot in the woods." Li Jing was also really thirsty, and said, "Why don't you take pity on the fragrance and cherish the jade, and just drink it by yourself?" Hou Weidong handed over the water bottle and said, "Drink it." Li Jing took the kettle and didn't drink it right away. She looked at the kettle for a while and said, "This kind of kettle looks very friendly. My father also served as a soldier. He brought such a kettle when he came back from the army. He took me out When playing, I like to carry this kind of water bottle." Hou Weidong originally wanted to joke "this is an indirect kiss", but when he heard Li Jing say this, he couldn't make the joke anymore. After resting for a while, Hou Weidong held Li Jing's hand, and the two slowly withdrew from the forest. The sun shines through the dense woods, and the spots fall on the damp ground, falling on the two of them. There is still a vigor when you come, but you are like a defeated soldier when you leave.The two turned towards the general direction of the village office, turned east and west, and gradually missed the path they came from.After going down a small slope, I heard the sound of jingling water, and then I saw a small pool.The water quality is clear, and you can see the fine stones, grass and sand underneath, surrounded by natural stones, washed smooth and clean by the water. "I want to rest." Seeing the pond, Li Jing's eyes lit up, and she made her request like a little girl.She sat by the water, took off her shoes, and put her feet in the cool water. The natural coolness made every pore open. "Weidong, what are you doing standing up? If you sit here, I won't eat you." Hou Weidong sat down, and at Li Jing's request, he also took off his shoes, and put his four feet in the clear water.A few skinny small mountain fish swam aside quickly, and swam back after a while. "Do you have rotten feet?" "No." "Really?" "Really." After getting an affirmative answer, Li Jing quickly stepped on Hou Weidong's big foot, and then quickly moved away after stepping on it.Hou Weidong retaliated, so she hid here and there.At this moment, Li Jing completely threw away the heavy shell and played in nature with a woman's true colors. It stopped until the clothes were completely wet. "When do you want a child?" Li Jing leaned on Hou Weidong's wide soles, looked at the pond, and asked inexplicably. Hou Weidong didn't understand, and asked instead, "What did you say?" "I told you before that I will not get married in this life, but I want to have a child. I want to borrow your seed. My child needs a father with good IQ, EQ and good health." Li Jing said that borrowing seeds was like borrowing a piece of rubber, making Hou Weidong dumbfounded, and said: "Don't make such a joke." Li Jing said: "I'm not joking, I'm serious." Neither of them spoke anymore, Li Jing leaned over and leaned on Hou Weidong's shoulder. In the forest, the birds are chirping, the sunlight is slowly moving through the forest, the grass is swaying slightly in the breeze, and there is even a faint mist. A few more gunshots sounded from a distance, piercing the temporary tranquility.Li Jing sat up straight, bowed her head and said, "It's been a long time since I enjoyed such a simple time, if I still want to come here to play, you have to accompany me." When I returned to the village office, it was already 4 o'clock in the afternoon.Only He Xiaoying, the women's director of the village office, stayed behind. Seeing the two of them coming back, she quickly brought over the mineral water. At 5 o'clock, Zhang Mushan and his party also came out of the forest.The cadres of the military department of the armed forces carried rifles, several village cadres carried a medium-sized black wild boar with wooden sticks, and Zhang Mushan also carried a colorful pheasant in his hand.Liu Tao and Yang Dajin's faces were black and white, similar to the oil paint on the faces of special forces soldiers. Seeing Hou Weidong and Li Jing, Zhang Mushan laughed and said, "If you two don't go hunting with us, you must be hiding somewhere and having a romantic relationship." Li Jing gave a white look, and said: "Boss Zhang only cares about his own enjoyment, and doesn't care about me at all." There is ambiguity in this sentence, Zhang Mushan and others have heard it.Zhang Mushan laughed again, and said: "Alright, next time I must pay attention to your feelings." Li Jingbo said angrily: "I won't tell you any more." With the friendship of hunting together, Zhang Mushan, He Hequan and others became acquainted with each other.He Hequan said to Zhang Mushan: "Boss Zhang, let's take the wild things home first, and you can rest in the office for a while." Zhang Mushan still had a lot to say, "Let's go together, I am not a pampered person. , often helping members kill pigs.” A few soldiers from the Armed Forces left Shangqinglin with Type 5 or Type 6 semi-automatic rifles under the pretext of having something to do.Zhang Mushan, Hou Weidong, Li Jing, Liu Tao, Yang Dajin and others arrived at the pig killing scene. Wild boars are also pigs, except that they have more lean meat and a stronger fishy smell, and are not much different from ordinary domestic pigs.He Hequan's knife skills are good, like a cook, he decomposes a whole wild boar into pork legs, lard, pork, large intestine, and pig head.Every part can be processed into delicious by people, only the bloodstains on the ground record a brutal killing. The boiling water in the cauldron quickly stirred up the aroma, and two yellow local dogs scurried around the yard energetically. Li Jing sighed: "Talent is the cruelest animal. It can be cramped, skinned, chopped, fried, and any tricks can be imagined." Zhang Mushan laughed when he heard Li Jing's petty words: "This is an old topic. Yes, since ancient times there has been a saying that a gentleman stays away from the kitchen, but in fact this is deceiving oneself and others." "The forest of Shangqinglin is too precious, it is the wealth bestowed by God to the people of Qinglin." In front of Director Yang Dajin of the Planning Commission, Zhang Mushan didn't mention the cement factory, but talked about tourism instead. "Tourism is an emerging industry, which can stimulate many industries such as transportation, hotels, and catering. Now many places claim to build tourist cities, but there are very few tourism projects with excellent quality. Most of them are man-made landscapes. How can they compare to this forest." Zhang Mushan pointed to the dense forest in the distance, and said: "Director Yang, I want to build a large hunting ground in this forest, called Wangri Hunting Ground. The natural dense forest, with its original taste, will definitely become a tourist boutique after it is released. " Yang Dajin has been engaged in industrial projects. He has no understanding or interest in the tourism industry. He just kept a polite smile and waited until Zhang Mushan finished speaking. He said, "The project with the most potential in Shangqinglin is the cement plant project. Secretary Zhu, Ma County The boss is very concerned about this matter, as long as Qingda Group is willing to settle in Yiyang, there will be preferential policies in terms of taxation and land.” At this time, the sound of cars sounded outside He Hequan's house again, and after a while, Zeng Xiangang, Tang Guiyuan, He Hongfu and others came in one after another. Zeng Xiangang was wearing a blindfold and did not speak after entering the hospital.Tang Guiyuan was originally a listless person who couldn't beat a fart with three sticks, so he entered the hospital smiling.It's just that He Hongfu laughed and said: "Crazy, why did you come back so silently? It wasn't Secretary He who called, so I just didn't know you were back." Hou Weidong introduced them one by one, and said: "The three villages in Shangqinglin, the leaders of several villages are good friends. I heard that Mr. Zhang is inspecting Shangqinglin. I asked them to come and report the situation of each village." Village cadres are the smallest cadres, and they are not full-time cadres.Many people look down on village cadres, but those who run enterprises, because they often have to rent or expropriate land, have to deal with village cadres. Some difficult village cadres will cause endless troubles for enterprises. Zhang Mushan left the army and started a small business bit by bit. He has dealt with village cadres a lot, and he understands the truth that a strong dragon cannot overwhelm a local snake.Seeing that the cadres of the three villages in Shangqinglin were all present, and they were affectionate and respectful towards Hou Weidong, they couldn't help but secretly marveled: "Li Jing once said that Hou Weidong is very prestigious in Shangqinglin. It seems that this is true. The deputy mayor can be a His level is really good." Zhang Mushan is usually a very steady man, but today he came to a genuine farmhouse, drinking pheasant soup boiled in a big pot, and eating double-cooked pork fried with wild boar. The miserable life of youth is the easiest to engrave in memory.Even though the traces are getting weaker and weaker as time goes by, they will still pop up like grass at the right time. Zhang Mushan used to be an educated youth, when he was very young, he usually worked in the production team, following behind his elder brothers and sisters.At the age of eighteen, by chance, he enlisted in the army, and dozens of educated youths in the educated youth camp were envious of him.More than three years of education as an educated youth and more than ten years of military life have allowed him to learn knowledge that cannot be learned in classrooms, and he has a deep enough understanding of society.To a certain extent, this is also an important reason why he was able to build Qingda Group from scratch. He Hongfu, He Hequan and others toasted in turn, aroused Zhang Mushan's emotions, and began to tell everyone about his life as an educated youth. Li Jing saw that Zhang Mushan had already drunk a lot, so he persuaded: "Mr. Zhang, this Yiyang Gaoliangza wine tastes good, but the strength is actually very high, so you should drink less." As she spoke, she gave Zhang Mushan's secretary a wink.Zhang Mushan waved his hand in the air, and said forcefully: "It is rare to get drunk in life, so don't persuade me today, I will drink three cups with Li Jing." Li Jing acted like a baby, and said in a coquettish voice: "I don't feel well, can I not Drink?" Zhang Mushan said: "No, you must drink." Li Jing inserted the napkin with her chopsticks and said, "I can't hold up the white flag. Brother Zhang usually protects me the most. Why is he always bullying me today?" Her eyes were like water, and she said pitifully, "Hou Weidong is my brother. Let him Help me drink, will you?" "Brother Hou can help drink, I drink three cups, he drinks six cups." After hearing the words, Hou Weidong said proudly: "One word from a gentleman is hard to chase. I have six glasses, and Mr. Zhang has three glasses." After speaking, he raised the six glasses of wine that He Hongfu had poured, and drank them neatly. After Zhang Mushan drank these three cups, he became even more drunk. Seeing that Zhang Mushan was already drunk, He Hongfu and the others changed their target of attack, and said to Director Yang Dajin, "Director Yang, you are a high-ranking official in charge of the economy. It's rare to come to Qinglin. I'll toast you a glass of wine." Yang Dajin is an old fritter, and he said smoothly: "What are you doing to respect me, hurry up and respect Mr. Zhu." Zhang Mushan's secretary is surnamed Zhu, and he is also a senior secretary. He used to be the boss of a small company under Qingda Group, and he has been called Mr. Zhu for many years.It's just that his "total" is quite different from Zhang Qingda's "total" in gold content. "Where do I dare to be the boss, just call me Secretary Zhu." Secretary Zhu is very cautious. When the boss is drunk, he must not be drunk, otherwise he will not be able to eat and walk around. "I'm the same as that Director Zeng. If you don't drink at all, it's not a respect to replace wine with tea." Secretary Zhu was also tested for alcohol, and there is a way to refuse alcohol. He directly lifted Zeng Xiangang up.The implication is that since Zeng Xiangang didn't drink, he didn't drink either. He Hongfu and the others knew Zeng Xiangang's stubborn temper. After he swore to quit drinking, he really didn't drink at all, so seeing Secretary Zhu like this, they couldn't persuade him much. When it was getting dark, a cloud of fire suddenly appeared in the sky, a large area glowing red. Zhang Mushan was so drunk that he couldn't help his poetry. Looking up at the burning clouds, he said: "Looking at Jieshi in the east, you can see the sea. The water is so light, and the mountains and islands stand tall. The trees are dense and the grass is luxuriant. The autumn wind is bleak, and the waves are surging. The sun and the moon The trip, if you come out of it; the stars and Han are brilliant, if you go out of it. Fortunately, even! Singing to sing about ambition." Watching Huo Shaoyun reciting "Guan Canghai", it seems that some texts are wrong, but Hou Weidong can hear the meaning in it.He thought to himself: "Zhang Mushan's poetry chanting ambitions, really has the depression of a veteran Youyan, it's not simple, it's different from ordinary nouveau riche." At the end of the banquet, Zhang Mushan was not satisfied, and said to Hou Weidong: "I just heard from Secretary He that the Goubeiwan Stone Field is the largest stone field in Shangqinglin. Let's take a look." Hou Weidong smiled secretly: "This old fox finally showed his tail. Since he is going to visit the quarry, it shows that he is interested in investing in building a factory. Wine is really a good thing, it can expose people's true thoughts." The Goubeiwan quarry has been mining on a large scale for more than two years. Due to the strict implementation of the gradient mining system, although the excavation surface is high, it looks as stable as Mount Tai.Zhang Mushan pointed to the huge excavation surface and said, "Brother Hou, how many years can this quarry be mined?" Hou Weidong said: "It's hard to tell. The whole mountain is full of stones. No one knows how long it will take to mine them." After leaving Goubeiwan, it was completely dark, and the group returned to Yiyang County.
