Chapter 134: Dealing with the World
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
When they heard about the wild boars, they became excited.
After all, a wild boar would cost at least one or two taels of silver. A bigger one would cost three taels of silver.
Even if they didn’t sell it, they could keep it at home and live a fat and beautiful year.
They couldn’t have meat for every meal.
“How, how many are there?” Constable Qin asked softly.
“It should be a nest from the sound, but I’m not sure how many. Let’s go and take a look.”
Heng Yi lightened his steps.
The others followed behind him, walking even more carefully.
When he saw the ten wild boars, Heng Yi began to distribute the tasks.
They didn’t have to do anything else but stop the wild boar from escaping.
Only then did he have the time to trap the wild boars one by one?
The three servants Heng Yi brought were also extremely nervous.
Heng Yi was very fast. He threw out the hemp rope hanging on his shoulder and wrapped it around the boar’s neck. Then, he jumped onto the tree and hung the boar up.
The rope in his hand was thrown out again, and another wild boar was caught.
The herd of wild boars was frightened and had long fled with loud cries.
The boars were even more ferocious when their escapes were blocked.
Heng Yi was really fast. It only took him a blink of an eye to catch the boars and hang them onto the tree.
Out of the dozen wild boars, they had caught five. Their teamwork was not good enough. If they had better teamwork, they could have caught two more.
However, Constable Qin was already satisfied.
They even thought of how to divide these wild boars.
Each of them gave half of the rest to Heng Yi.
“Going down the mountain?” Constable Qin asked.
Heng Yi was about to nod when he sniffed again. “Whoever walks fast and has good qinggong, follow me. 1 smell a badger cave nearby.”
“I’ll go with you.”
Actually, they all wanted to go, but they had to tie up the five wild boars and carry them down the mountain.
In the end, only Constable Qin and Wen Yu followed Heng Yi.
The badgers were already in hibernation this time of year.
Heng Yi was always accurate when he dug out the badger nest.
When the three badgers were caught, they were still in a daze at first. When they woke up, they began to cry.
Heng Yi tied their mouths with hemp ropes.
Heng Yi chopped a tree trunk as thick as an arm, tied the badger up, and let Constable Qin and Wen Yu carry it.
Only then did they see Heng Yi’s true hunting ability.
He dug a rabbit hole.
After a while, Heng Yi disappeared and returned with one or several rabbits.
After a while, he disappeared again. When he came back, he was carrying new animals; sometimes hares, other times pheasants. When they reached the foot of the mountain, there were more than forty hares and more than ten pheasants.
Constable Qin and the others thought that Heng Yi was wasting his talent by working at the government office.
He was born to be a hunter.
When they arrived at the manor, Constable Qin and the others discussed killing the wild boar.
“Alright.” Heng Yi has no problem with the Chief.
“We’ll split the rabbit, but I want the rabbit skin.”
Uncle Yao and the others were busy boiling water and killing pigs.
They killed the rabbits.
The pig’s blood had to stay. Heng Yi wanted to take the pig’s innards back to Heng Manor first, and when they were ready, they would share some tomorrow.
He knew that Han Qiao wanted the small intestine.
What sausages were they going to make?
“Our half of the pig is for you to take home. We’ll give each of you a hind leg and take the pig’s head away.” Constable Qin said.
Heng Yi naturally wouldn’t refuse.
He even asked for the pig’s brain.
He gave each of them some pig’s blood and asked them to bring it home for braising or making soup.
Two rabbits for each person, and all the chickens were his.
He left a few rabbits, a few chickens, and half a pig at the mountain for Uncle Yao and the others to cook.
These days, Uncle Yao and the others had been helping to plow the orange grove, fertilize it, and grow vegetables. It had been very hard on them.
Heng Yi was going to sell the three live badgers and split the money.
The badger was a good hunt, and it wouldn’t be sold casually. He planned to send it to the Feng family.
The price offered by the Feng family was fairer than the outside world.
They parted at the city gate and went home separately.
Heng Yi brought most of the hunt home.
When Han Qiao saw the badger, she asked,” Is that a badger?”
“Yes.”
“Lock them in the cage first. You go personally and send some wild boar meat to the county magistrate and the others.”
“Give three of the boar’s legs to the county magistrate. Then give the hares to Dian Bao and the Grand Master.”
Heng Yi didn’t seem to quite understand the intention, but he also knew that he had to do it.
After eating some food, he personally went over.
County Magistrate Wu was overjoyed to see Heng Yi deliver the boar leg.
“I was just about to eat something fresh, and you sent it over. I’m very lucky today.”
Heng Yi didn’t know how to take it.
County Magistrate Wu also knew that Heng Yi was a person who kept his mouth shut. After all, he had investigated this man carefully.
He didn’t want to make things difficult for him, so he said, “Go ahead and do your work. Remember to come to the government office early tomorrow.”
“Yes.”
“Work hard. You have a bright future if you want to be a capable person.”
“Thank you for your praise.”
Heng Yi also brought the meat to the Grand Master and Dian Bao.
The Grand Master was very stoic, not very enthusiastic nor was he cold.
But his fellow officer was very enthusiastic.
“I heard that you want to open a broker shop. Helping people sell houses, farms, shops, and fields?”
“Yes.”
“That’s good. 1 have one just for you. If you need to settle the transfer of owners.h.i.+p, come find me anytime.”
Heng Yi thought of Han Qiao’s words and got closer. “Thank you, Dian Bao. 1’11 give you ten percent of the profits.”
Ning Dian smiled thinly. “No need, no need. Just get me a few catties of wine later.”
Of course, this was just a polite remark.
If Heng Yi’s business was good, he had to give him some benefits.
There was no need to say too much about what everyone knew.
Meanwhile, back in the Heng Mansion, Han Qiao asked him to marinate the rabbit meat and kill the pheasant to make soup.
On such a cold day it was a great time to eat a bowl of hot chicken soup.
After the pork was selected, it was washed and chopped into pieces, mixed with sausages.
There were also quite a few sausages in the small intestines of a few wild boars.
Han Qiao mixed it with spicy food.
When Heng Yi returned, dinner was ready.
Braised pork brain, cold pork belly, pig blood soup, stewed pork trotter and soybeans, chicken soup, cold shredded chicken, and stir-fried chicken giblets.
Grandpa liked pig’s brain, pig’s blood soup, pig’s trotters and soybeans, cold shredded chicken, a bowl and a half of rice, and a bowl of chicken soup.
Once he finished, he burped contentedly.
“Grandpa, are you full?” Han Qiao asked.
“I’m full, I’m full.”
Han Qiao wanted her grandparents to be full, but they had to walk more and digest more before going to bed.
The three children could only be 90% full. They had to digest their food at night before they could sleep. Otherwise, they would become fat in the future. Losing weight was a very difficult thing to do.
She was only 70 – 80% full and would never eat too much.
Otherwise, it would be troublesome if her stomach was bloated in the future.
Heng Yi consumed a lot of energy, so he could eat whatever he wanted.
After dinner, Heng Yi helped Han Qiao walk slowly.
This house was big and the scenery was good. It was also very good to walk around.
They could still talk between husband and wife.
Shulan was walking very far behind, so she couldn’t hear what the two of them were talking about. However, if Han Qiao called her loudly, she could come over immediately.
“Today’s harvest is not bad. If you meet another constable tomorrow and he asks you to lead the way into the mountain, you should agree.”
“Arrester w.a.n.g?”
“Yes, there are some people that we can’t offend..”
