Chapter 198 Poaching
Lin Jiadong thought that he could delay paying the compensation to the two educated youth as much as possible, but he didn't know that Cha Minghui was a strange character, and there was Wang Shuangyan behind him who gave him advice.
The combination of the two "despicable" people made Lam Ka-tung very depressed.
But he didn't want to compensate them with his remaining money. At this time, Secretary Xu showed him a way.
"Jiadong, I have a big family to support, and I can't lend you that much money all at once, but I have a way to make money."
Lam Ka-tung looked grateful: "Please give me some advice."
Secretary Xu nodded with satisfaction.
"It's not like I can give you any advice. I've thought of this idea a long time ago, but I'm too old to do it. You're a retired soldier, young and strong, and you're good at it. You're just right for this."
Lin Jiadong was confused by what he heard.
Director Xu didn't keep the secret any longer and pointed to the mountains in the distance.
Over there is Xiaochong Mountain.
Lam Ka Tung looked over and understood what he said.
He hesitated and said, "Hunting?"
"That's not good. Everything on the mountain is public property."
"Hey! That's what I said, but how many people are listening carefully? Many people in our team secretly go up the mountain to hunt, and everyone turns a blind eye. After all, life is not easy."
Secretary Xu patted him on the shoulder and said, "I've given you the idea. The rest depends on how you decide."
"If you want to go, come to my house tonight, we can go together, and I have the tools."
"If you don't dare, just pretend you haven't been here today."
In fact, Lin Jiadong had been attracted to her for a long time, but he was just pretending to be hesitant in front of him.
Now hearing him say this, she gritted her teeth pretending to be embarrassed and then agreed.
"I go."
Faced with Secretary Xu's understanding eyes, he was angry in his heart, but he had to pretend to be helpless on the surface.
"It was really that Cha Minghui who was pushing people too far. He even said that he had 200 yuan that was burned."
Whenever he talks about this, Lam Ka-tung gets angry.
He didn't believe that Cha Minghui had so much money.
"He pesters me for money every day, and the captain is forcing me to pay. I really have no other choice, so I come to ask you for some advice and some way to make money to compensate him."
Secretary Xu: "Alas, the educated youth in our brigade are all difficult to deal with."
Especially that female educated youth named Yu, whose every word made him feel heartbroken.

As autumn approaches, there is less work to do in the fields.
When Cheng Wuyang doesn't have to go to the fields, he thinks about going up the mountain to hunt and sell the goods on the black market.
Yu Qingxu also wanted to go with him.
"Brother Cheng, I have practiced martial arts before and I am quite good. I won't hold you back."
He had seen his brother Cheng's marksmanship last year. Although they couldn't use guns now, the bow and arrow made by Brother Cheng was also very powerful.
While Cheng Wuyang was carefully sharpening the arrowhead, he asked him, "You are not short of money, why are you so keen on hunting in the mountains?"
He had occasionally gone up the mountain to hunt before, and this kid would follow him with great interest.
Yu Qingxu: "I'm not short of money, but that's all given by my family, not earned by myself."
Yu Qingtang happened to pass by and heard what he said. He stuck his head in and said excitedly: "Then give me the money your family gave you and go make money yourself."
"Hahaha~"
Seeing that Yu Qingxu was stuck in a stalemate due to Yu Qingxu's words, Cheng Wuyang burst into laughter.
Yu Qingtang walked into the room and asked, "What did you just talk about? How to make money? Take me with you."
Cheng Wuyang raised the arrow in his hand and said proudly, "Hunting, do you want to go?"
Yu Qingxu frowned and said, "No, there are wild animals on the mountain. My sister can't go."
"Have you forgotten about me tearing a wild boar apart last year?"
Yu Qingtang clenched his fist to show that he was very strong.
She also has a permanent plant ability card that allows plants to grow quickly. This ability is a perfect match for the deep mountains.
Cheng Wuyang invited Yu Qingtang because he knew she had a way to protect herself.
Yu Qingxu became even more worried. If his sister insisted on going, how should he persuade her?
It's useless to persuade him.
That night, Yu Qingtang fixed a flashlight on his head, carried a quiver on his back, held a bamboo bow in his hand, and followed the two men with great interest.
Cheng Wuyang made both the bow and arrow himself, and the bow that Yu Qingtang took was the smallest.
Yu Qingtang tried the feel of the bow as he walked.
"Sister, we are on our way, stop comparing. What if you accidentally shoot us?"
"I'm not blind, why would I shoot at you?"
"What if your hands are shaking?"
"An arrow is not a gun. You can't shoot it if your hands are shaking."
"Shh!"
Yu Qingtang and Yu Qingxu were bickering, and Jin Guagua suddenly reminded her: "Host, there are people in front of you."
Cheng Wuyang suddenly stopped and turned to look at Yu Qingtang.
Yu Qingtang broke up and turned off the flashlight above his head. Yu Qingxu didn't understand why, but still asked in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
Yu Qingtang noticed that both of them were looking at him. When he was thinking about what to say, Cheng Wuyang suddenly said, "There's someone in front."
Yu Qingxu's eyes narrowed. What they were doing now was not against the law.
"What should I do? Should I go back?"
After all, the people are in front of them, and they still have time to run now.
Yu Qingtang thought so too, but Jin Guagua reminded her.
"In front are Lam Ka-tung and Secretary Xu."
It is normal for Lin Jiadong to think of hunting as he was recently forced to pay compensation by Cha Minghui.
But why did Secretary Xu follow along?
Putting aside his old age, his family shouldn't be so short of money that they would go hunting in the middle of the night.
Her intuition told her that something was wrong.
Yu Qingxu looked at his sister who didn't say anything for a long time, his eyes widened slightly: "You don't want to follow and see?"
"Sister, now is not the time for you to join in the fun."
Yu Qingtang: "...I'm not, I didn't, let's go back."
Cheng Wuyang had no objection, and he didn't want to be discovered hunting by others.
Especially when the other party is not a good person, if you approach him now, you are simply handing your handle to him.
The three of them headed home.
Yu Qingtang was still a little unhappy, so Cheng Wuyang coaxed her: "Next weekend, let's go up the mountain during the day. If we meet anyone, we can say we are going to collect firewood."
"Okay."
She didn't want to hunt, but was mainly curious about why Secretary Xu went up the mountain in the middle of the night.
This year during the Qingming Festival, she went to Xiaochongshan to sweep the tombs of the martyrs, but she had never been to deeper areas.

In the county town, the sky was just beginning to brighten, and an inconspicuous little courtyard was brightly lit.
Blackie was sitting at the table doing the accounting. In front of him were account books. He had a pen in his hand and was writing every stroke very carefully.
A younger brother pushed the door open and saw that he had stopped writing before saying, "Hei Ye, we found out who the Director Lin that person was talking about is."
"who is it?"
