Chapter 1218 Li Ruhai’s Importance in the Forest Area

When Zhao Jun asked about Xing Zhiyong's third uncle, Hu Zhenjiang replied casually, and then asked Zhao Jun: "Brother, what's going on? Do you know that old man?"

Hu Zhenjiang didn't know the relationship between Zhao Jun and Xing San. In his opinion, the old man was so stubborn that few of his peers were willing to deal with him, let alone juniors like Zhao Jun.

"Ah..." Zhao Jun couldn't help but worry when he heard that Xing San had not shown up for a day. The old man has a bad heart and went out in the morning, and he hasn't come back yet. It was freezing cold, where could he go?

Looking at Hu Zhenjiang's look, Zhao Jun knew that asking him was in vain, so he made do with a few casual words, and Zhao Jun took his leave and prepared to leave.

Hu Zhenjiang escorted Zhao Jun and the others out of the yard. Just as Zhao Jun was about to get in the car, he heard someone shouting: "Xiaojun!"

"Ouch!" Zhao Jun turned around and saw Hu Mantang and someone coming from the west.

Zhao Jun knew that man, his name was Tang Daquan, and he was the head of Yongli Village.

"Uncle Hu." It was Hu Mantang who called him just now, so Zhao Jun responded first, and then Zhao Jun nodded to Tang Daquan and said: "Uncle Tang."

"Hey!" Tang Daquan smiled, reached out and patted Zhao Jun's shoulder gently, saying, "This kid has grown so big."

As he spoke, Tang Daquan gestured to his side and said, "That year when your father brought you to my house, you were so tall."

Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this, and Hu Mantang from the side continued: "Brother Tang, how many years has it been? How old is Qianer?"

"Not so good." Tang Daquan smiled and said: "The children have grown so big, how can we not grow old?"

Before Zhao Jun went to junior high school, Zhao Youcai took him with him wherever he went so that Zhao Jun could have some food with him.

Later, when the Zhao army grew bigger, Zhao Youcai stopped accepting it, and the Zhao army was unwilling to go.

When Zhao Jun was ten years old, the youngest son of the Tang family got married. Zhao Youcai and Han Dachun came to make a banquet for the Tang family, and Zhao Jun also came with them. Zhao Jun was so impressed by the Tang family's banquet that he killed two pigs. The large piece of braised pork is enough, which was unique in Yong'an Forest District in 1977.

"Hey?" Tang Daquan glanced at Li Baoyu, raised his hand and asked, "Is he a boy from Li Dayong's family?"

"Uncle Tang." Li Baoyu nodded with a smile and said, "Yes."

The village chiefs of the four villages are all extraordinary, especially Tang Daquan, who is fifty-eight this year and has been a village chief for half his life. He is quite respectable in the Yong'an Forest District.

"This is the height of a big boy." Tang Daquan looked at Li Baoyu, who was 1.9 meters tall, and couldn't help but sigh: "This guy, this big guy is really good!"

As he said this, Tang Daquan suddenly remembered something and asked Li Baoyu, "Who is your brother? Haven't you looked at him this time?"

Li Baoyu was startled, and then heard Tang Daquan say: "Many people from our village are looking for him?"

"Ah?" Li Baoyu was a little confused, and Zhao Jun on the side quickly said to Tang Daquan: "Uncle Tang, I have some work at home recently, and Ruhai is helping out when he is off duty."

"That's what I said." Tang Daquan said: "He used to come at least once a week. It's been half a month and he hasn't come yet."

After hearing what Tang Daquan said, Zhao Jun and Li Baoyu looked at each other. Li Baoyu turned around and asked Tang Daquan: "Uncle Tang, he came to your village..."

Li Baoyu was halfway talking, but Tang Daquan took over the conversation naturally and said, "Buy and resell!"

After saying that, Tang Daquan smiled, and then asked Li Baoyu: "Don't your family know this?"

Li Baoyu twitched the corner of his mouth, and Tang Daquan waved to him and said: "He used to come here when he had time off work, but he hasn't been here for half a month. Many people in the village are waiting for him."

At this point, Tang Daquan gestured to Hu Mantang and said, "I just looked at Han Laowu, wasn't he still talking about it?"

"Ah, yes." Hu Mantang nodded, then looked at Tang Daquan and said, "It's a huge loss that he didn't come. When he comes, I may not be able to buy mountain animals."

Xing Zhiyong will go out tomorrow and the family will entertain him tomorrow night. Hu Zhenjiang has already told Zhao Jun just now.

As for Xing Zhiyong's family, he only has one sister who is married far away. His father came down the mountain. When they took old Xingtou down the mountain, the villagers didn't tell him that Xing Zhiyong was dead. They only said that there was something going on at home.

The old man came down and took a look at the funeral shed, then he lay down.

There is no way, Hu Mantang and Hu Zhenjiang can only help Hu Erya to deal with Xing Zhiyong.

This afternoon, Hu Mantang ran around the village and bought four roe deer and a wild boar from four families.

Normally, mountain people skin their prey when they get home. First, the prey is still a little warm when they get home, so it is easy to skin it at that time. The other is to peel off the skin and sell the meat. Not everyone can sell the whole wild boar or the whole roe deer these days. The meat is divided into portions of five kilograms, which can be easily sold.

But since the rise of Li Ruhai, it has become popular in eight villages in ten miles to sell the whole thing. They are not easy to sell, but Li Ruhai can help them get out.

Last week, Li Ruhai worked as a substitute at the forest farm so that he could show his talents after taking office. Unexpectedly, he failed to take office even after winning the election. He spent this week at home recovering from his injuries and thinking about his mistakes behind closed doors.

Just like that, Li Ruhai didn't come to Yongli Village for two weeks, which made those who went up the mountain and set up traps anxious.

But it was a good thing for Hu Mantang. If Li Ruhai had come two days ago and ordered all the wild boars and roe deer, he would have to pay a high price if he wanted to buy them again.

Hu Mantang's words made Zhao Jun and the other two curl their lips. Li Baoyu felt a headache when he heard about Li Ruhai. He secretly pulled Zhao Jun, and Zhao Jun gestured to Xing Zhiyong's yard and said to Hu Mantang: "Uncle Hu, you don't have to buy those. I killed that black bear, and I brought it all to you."

"Ah?" Hu Mantang looked at Hu Zhenjiang after hearing that. Hu Zhenjiang winked at Hu Mantang, and then said: "My brother is kind and righteous, and he brought it all to us."

Seeing his son's eyes, Hu Mantang knew that the black bear was indeed the one who killed Xing Zhiyong.

At this time, Tang Daquan was arguing to go into the yard to see the black bear. His status was there, and Zhao Jun couldn't say he wanted to leave at this time. So, several people entered the Xing family yard together.

The body of the black bear was lying in the middle of the yard. The two dogs of the Xing family were tired of biting for a while, and they stopped at this time.

When Hu Mantang got close to the black bear, he saw that the black bear's left arm was completely broken, and he was relieved.

The black bear's broken arm was shot by Xing Zhiyong, and the people from Yongli Village picked up the broken arm when they went up the mountain.

At that time, Tang Daquan personally led the people up the mountain, so he naturally knew it. When he got closer, Tang Daquan looked at Zhao Jun and praised him: "Everyone in the forest area said that you are a great kid, and today I can see it."

Zhao Jun smiled when he heard this. He was praised so much that he didn't know what to say.

Seeing Tang Daquan's eyes turn to Jie Chen, Zhao Jun hurriedly introduced him, saying: "Uncle Tang, this is my little brother, who came from Lingnan."

"Ah!" Tang Daquan stretched out his hand to Jie Chen, and when the two held hands together, Tang Daquan smiled and said: "Young man, welcome to our forest area."

Jie Chen smiled and agreed, and then heard Tang Daquan ask Zhao Jun: "Have you eaten? Did you just come back from the mountain?"

As he said, Tang Daquan glanced at the door of Xing's house and said: "His family has been busy these two days, you can come to my house for a bite."

"It's amazing, Uncle Tang, we've finished eating." Zhao Jun declined: "We came home first after coming back from the mountain, and came here after sending the dog and eating."

"Ah, that's fine." Tang Daquan suddenly changed the subject and smiled: "Then come to my house, I have something to talk to you about."

I was very tired yesterday, and I got up late today... It was seven o'clock when I opened my eyes.

This chapter doesn't count as a make-up. I'm going to cook noodles now and continue writing after eating. I'll update two more chapters in the evening, one of which makes up for yesterday's.
