Chapter 523 Sensation
Chapter 523 Sensation
As soon as these four carriages entered the camp, they immediately caused quite a stir!
Everyone knows that there are wild goods in the mountains!
The soldiers would go up the mountain from time to time to get some wild goods. Even boys like Lin Xiaojie could get some wild rabbits and pheasants to bring back to improve the food for their families.
But no matter what, it is not as shocking as seeing this mountain of wild boars right in front of your eyes!
One carriage simply could not pull so many wild boars. Later, rabbits, pheasants and the like were strung together with ropes and carried by the soldiers, and another carriage was vacated to load them.
Even so, several wild boars were carried back by the soldiers.
There were two more that could not be taken, but they were reluctant to throw them away, so they threw them onto the first cart loaded with fish.
Because only the horse pulling this cart can still exert some strength!
When we arrived at the camp, not only were the people exhausted, but even the four horses were exhausted.
When the squad leader who was in charge of taking care of the livestock saw the condition of the horses, he quickly asked the soldiers to take the horses away, give them water and feed, and take good care of them.
Lao Ren and the others all came out and saw baskets of fish, rabbits and pheasants, but there was nothing special about it, it was basically a routine operation.
In other words, when they learned this morning that Ye Shu was going to the river, they had already prepared a fish feast in the camp that evening!
Isn’t that nonsense? When fresh fish comes, you must enjoy it while it’s fresh!
Then freeze the rest and save it for later.
It's not that I haven't seen or caught wild boars before, but the most I've caught at one time was only three.
The two warriors experienced quite a bit of risk at that time. The main reason was that they did not expect that after they had dealt with two wild boars, there was still one in the dark, and then they were ambushed. Fortunately, they reacted in time and only suffered minor injuries.
But now seeing so many wild boars, everyone is really eye-opening!
Ren Chunhe: "This scene is even bigger than the one at the village farm where they slaughter pigs during the Lunar New Year!"
Political Commissar Lin: "Who said it wasn't?"
Huo Yisheng: "Have the kitchen staff take care of all this! Call a meeting of all officers above the squadron level immediately!"
Upon hearing his serious order, everyone present looked stern, knowing that something must have happened, and hurried to convey the notice.
Ye Shu knew that Huo Yisheng was busy, so he didn't delay him any longer. He made a gesture to him and called two patrol soldiers to divide the fish they brought back.
Just like before, half was sent to the kitchen, and the other half was divided among the families in the family compound.
As for the small wild animals hunted by the soldiers, they can also say hello to the squad leader of the kitchen squad and ask to take them home.
But everyone is accommodating and caring towards each other. No one is so shameless as to take everything away.
Usually, several families who want to eat pheasant pool their resources, and two or three families share a chicken or a rabbit.
Most of it was kept for the soldiers to replenish their energy. After all, they were busy with missions or working in the fields all year round.
Only now can I rest and catch my breath.
But even now, half of the soldiers are still on missions outside and haven't returned yet.
According to experience, when the soldiers outside come back, the soldiers in the camp who have rested well will set off again.
Each family in the family compound divided the fish and sent the rest to the kitchen.
Everyone in the kitchen team was excited and anxious at the same time!
The squad leader didn't know where to start when faced with a mountain of wild boars, and then he saw a bunch of fish coming, and he was suddenly overwhelmed.
He quickly said hello: "Comrades! Don't leave! We're going to have a big pot dinner in the camp tonight!"
When Mrs. Jin heard this, she laughed: "You said it nicely, aren't you just counting on us female comrades to help you take care of these things!"
Having his thoughts exposed, the squad leader smiled innocently and said, "Sisters-in-law, please help us. There are too many things! We can't handle it!"
It’s indeed a lot. The fish needs to be prepared for dinner in the evening, so it needs to be cleaned and put into the pot immediately.
Wild boars also need to be cleaned up and processed quickly. It is necessary to do it as soon as possible while the pig is dead, and try to drain the pig blood as much as possible, otherwise it will greatly affect the taste of the pork later.
Then freeze the meat that needs to be frozen and marinate the meat that needs to be marinated.
Otherwise, the strong smell of blood would be so pungent that it might attract nearby wild animals into the camp.
Mrs. Jin and the others agreed with a smile, then went home, got their tools and started working.
This is something everyone is used to and has a tacit understanding of. There is no need for anyone to say much or make arrangements. Everyone can find work to do and do it very efficiently.
Ye Shu said, "I'll go check the room first and come back later."
Mrs. Jin was worried about the children and said, "Then go back and check on them."
Ye Shu agreed. Although the children now play with the older children except during class time, the older brothers like Lin Xiaojie are quite responsible and take good care of their younger brothers and sisters every day.
But parents cannot just ignore it.
She first went to Camp No. 2 to see Wang Jun.
It was already dark at this time, and the people in Camp No. 2 had finished their work and were busy preparing dinner.
Of course, there are also those who have not completed the task, such as Feng Wu and Lu Juan, mother and daughter.
Feng Wu had a heavy daily workload, including chopping 140 kilograms of firewood. He went up the mountain before dawn and could not come down until well after dark.
Lu Juan and Ge Qun, mother and daughter, were simply slow. They had never done such hard work before!
Ge Qun's previous jobs were all very easy, and Lv Juan had never worked before. In this day and age, the two of them have been living a life of luxury.
So it goes without saying that having to suddenly do this kind of hard work is both uncomfortable and difficult.
The key is that they are slow and weak, so they almost never complete their daily tasks.
When Huo Yisheng assigned the task, he said that you cannot rest until you complete it.
But the task given to them was to chop 50 kilograms each, but they ended up chopping from morning till night and only managed to chop more than 10 kilograms each!
At first, the patrolling soldiers didn't believe it and thought they were deliberately slacking off, so they also observed them secretly.
I found out that they were really slacking off, but they were also really incompetent.
If they don't slack off, based on their abilities, each of them can only cut about twenty pounds a day.
If I don't sleep at night, I can only lose 40 kilograms a day.
So the mother and daughter's tasks were delayed day by day, but the soldiers also had a bottom line task volume, and each person really had to complete a task volume of 20 kilograms every day.
The rest can be paid later, but it is also clearly stated that if the total task volume is not completed within two months, you will be kicked out of the camp.
This means giving the mother and daughter two months to adapt.
At this moment, except for the three of them, everyone else was in the camp, and they all saw the four carriages returning with the bountiful harvest. They stretched their necks to look, and their eyes widened when they saw the baskets of fish and the mountains of wild boars!
