Chapter 290 Plan
Ning Yuan is just the opposite of them.
His understanding is completely on a different level from that of these educated youth.
Hunters in the deep mountains and forests have a saying: one bear, two pigs and three tigers, or one pig, two bears and three tigers!
No matter how you rank them, wild boars are always among the top two dangerous animals to humans.
This is not to say that wild boars are really more ferocious and powerful than tigers and blind bears.
This is because wild boars are omnivorous animals and often appear in groups near human settlements, feeding on crops.
They are very aggressive, especially using their fangs and running fast to charge, which can be quite dangerous to humans.
Tigers and black bears are less numerous and live deep in the mountains and forests, rarely encountering humans, so their ranking has been lowered.
Ning Yuan is well aware of the wild boar's terrifying destructive power and defensive capabilities.
After several shots, the wild boar was not killed, but only the thick skin was broken.
Although it is true that the pistol's lethality and penetration are not strong, it is still a gun after all, and it cannot kill a larger wild boar.
Ning Yuan didn't think the leopard the night before was too dangerous.
Leopards don't have the rough, thick skin of a grown wild boar for protection.
Ning Yuan was confident that he could knock the man down with just a few shots.
However, the leopard did not give Ning Yuan this opportunity. Before Ning Yuan came out with his gun, the leopard had already turned around and ran away.
In a short period of time, their house was visited twice. Not to mention the female educated youth, even Ning Yuan and the others couldn't stand it anymore.
With this new courtyard wall that is more than two meters high, solid and thick, I can sleep peacefully at night.
In the evening, under Ning Yuan's arrangement, the educated youth in the yard prepared a more substantial dinner to celebrate the completion of the new courtyard wall.
It was still a steamed bun made of three-grain flour, and the dish was not very oily, just simple potatoes and cabbage.
The portions were quite generous, and the female educated youth ate with gusto and were quite happy.
But Ning Yuan, Xiao Ningwei, Wu Zhongguo and a group of male educated youth were already unable to eat anymore.
What kind of life did they live when they followed Ning Yuan in the city of Sijiu!
Lao Mo and Xinqiao go to Donglaishun every few days. Although they don’t eat pork and mutton every meal, they eat meat almost every two days.
It has been more than half a month since I came here. Except for the barbecue I had at the train station on the first night, I have been eating coarse grains, potatoes and cabbage for the remaining ten days.
Maybe this kind of food is quite good for others, but for Ning Yuan and his group of guys who are picky eaters, it is really bland.
After Wu Zhongguo ate two coarse-grain steamed buns, he went straight to Ning Yuan.
He was one of the earliest buddies to hang out with Ning Yuan, unlike Chen Xiaosi and the others who were later conquered or joined by Ning Yuan.
Therefore, he spoke to Ning Yuan in a relatively casual manner.
"Brother Yuan! Our courtyard wall is now in good shape. Isn't it time to take the brothers for a stroll in the mountains? We haven't had any meat for such a long time, and the brothers are craving for it!"
After listening to this, Ning Yuan nodded. This was what he had originally planned. Since Old Wu had brought it up, it was a good opportunity for him to start the conversation.
"Alright, let's get ready in the next two days. This is an old forest. If we don't have any good stuff, we won't feel confident going in!"
Ning Yuan said to Wu Zhongguo.
As soon as he finished speaking, the male and female educated youth who were eating together around him suddenly became excited.
Everyone knows that there is no shortage of wild animals in this place. After all, we have experienced it since that night at the station.
But Ning Yuan was the one in charge here, and his prestige made everyone subconsciously follow his plans and ideas. Without Ning Yuan saying anything, even if these educated youth wanted to eat meat, they had to honestly repair the courtyard wall first.
Of course, it’s not that everyone is dissatisfied with the repair of the courtyard wall. Everyone understands that Ning Yuan’s plan is correct.
You must have a safe haven before you can seek anything else.
Today is the right time. Since there are no safety risks for everyone, Ning Yuan put the next plan of going into the mountains to hunt on the agenda.
After Wu Zhongguo heard what Ning Yuan said, he immediately patted his chest and said.
"Brother Yuan, don't worry. We have already got a lot of materials for making bows and arrows. I will be able to finish it tomorrow. Let's~"
"Bow and arrow?? Old Wu, what's your idea? What era is it in which country? Are bows and arrows still used for hunting?"
Ning Yuan quickly interrupted the boy and asked in confusion.
Wu Zhongguo's heroic mood was immediately shattered by Ning Yuan's interruption. He blinked a few times, scratched his head and asked.
"Well, what can we use for hunting if not a bow and arrow? Don't you just have a pistol? A pistol is a little... not very useful for hunting, right?"
Ning Yuan smiled, then patted Wu Zhongguo on the shoulder and said.
"Who said we wanted to hunt with a pistol? Grab a few buddies, load up a cart, and let's go to the county tomorrow!"
"Going to the county? What are we going to the county for? Didn't we say we were going hunting?"
Wu Zhongguo was a little confused by Ning Yuan's erratic words.
"You kid, don't you think about what kind of relationship we have with Minister Zhang of the Armed Forces? Let's go to him tomorrow and borrow some weapons. It's no big deal!"
Ning Yuan waved his hand and spoke in a relaxed manner.
In fact, this is certainly not a trivial matter. To be frank, it is even unrealistic.
Even if Zhang Desheng had a close relationship with Ningyuan, he would never dare to lend these guys out.
Ning Yuan just used this excuse to take out the Type 56 continuous-fire semi-automatic rifles that he had stored in the space and give them to his friends.
Moreover, he not only had to go to the Armed Forces Department, but also had to go to the Logistics Department to take out some of the supplies stored in his space.
After listening to Ning Yuan's words, Wu Zhongguo suddenly understood and started laughing.
Of course he had to laugh. That was a Type 56 semi-automatic rifle. It was a big thing they did together the day before they set out from Sijiu City. How could he not know how powerful this gun was?
With this kind of thing in hand, going into the mountains to hunt is still called hunting? That's called hunting!
Why bother with bows and arrows? When in doubt, just fire a volley!
No matter whether it is a wild boar, a black bear, a tiger, a jackal, a leopard or a python, I can knock them all down with one volley!
"Okay, Brother Yuan, why didn't you tell me earlier? When we were chopping trees in the woods these past two days, we also picked up some bamboo to make bows and arrows. If we had known this earlier, who would have bothered with this?"
Wu Zhongguo complained cheerfully.
Ning Yuan ignored the boy and turned to give instructions to his buddies including Chen Xiaosi and Tian Erliang.
"You three, plus Old Wu, come with me to the county tomorrow. We'll get our stuff back and then we can go into the mountains!"
The people who were called by Ning Yuan naturally nodded excitedly.
