Reborn in the 1980s: I made my fortune hunting wild game in Changbai Mountain

Chapter 496 Six Falcons

Facing his mother’s question, Yue Feng scratched his head and chuckled: “Hey, something happened. I went home for a while and stayed at home for one night. I have to go back tomorrow!!”

“Come in quickly, this is the driver who brought you here, right? What’s your name? Come in and warm up!”

“Hello, Auntie. My last name is Li. Just call me Xiao Li!”

……

After a brief introduction, Yue Feng arranged for the driver to spend the night in the kang guest room in the new house. Hearing that the captain had returned, the brothers Xiaowen and Xiaowu also gathered at home for dinner.

Not to mention the joy of the reunion of brothers and relatives, a large table of people ate, drank and played until after nine o’clock.

After the party, everyone went home to see their mothers. After Yue Feng closed the door and coaxed his little sister to sleep, he took out a thick stack of big unity banknotes from his bag.

A Dongzhu pearl was sold for 66 yuan. Yue Feng took two shares and Xiao Tao took one share. Yue Feng kept %, which was more than yuan. They were all large pieces of gold that had just been taken out and placed on the edge of the kang, emitting the scent of ink.

“What were you doing at the airport? Where did you make so much money?”

Yue Lei and Meng Yulan looked at each other in surprise when they saw their son taking out the cash from the bag. Instead of being happy, they looked worried.

A mother worries about her son even when he is far away. Many times, parents don’t care whether you have been successful or not, but they are more worried about whether you are tired and have a good life outside.

Yue Feng grinned, took out a toilet paper package from his pocket, and opened it, revealing the two shiny and glistening oriental pearls.

“The money was made from selling pearls! The pearls were taken out from the crop of a swan killed by an eagle! I sold one of three, and Ye Jianjun gave me a high price of 20,000 yuan!” Yue Feng recounted the whole story in a concise manner.

“What kind of pearl is worth 20,000 yuan each? Is there anything else going on?”

Meng Yulan was in disbelief after hearing this. Although pearls are precious, twenty thousand dollars for each one is too much.

The father Yue Lei next to him was relatively calm. He picked up the pearl and examined it under the incandescent light before asking, “I heard from your grandfather that there are pearls in the stomach of a swan, and they are said to be very valuable!

Are you coming back this time to give money back home?”

Yue Feng nodded and shook his head: “These two pearls did not show up, and the worst one was sold for 20,000 yuan!

The airport’s eagle training and bird repellent inspection has been completed. After a few days of approval, eagle training instruction will begin. The entire cycle will take about a month, which is basically the same as predicted before leaving! !

This time I came back to pick up Dahei and Xiaobai from home!
If this swan has a lot of pearls in its belly, we don’t have to go up the mountain to hunt with all the effort. We can get a few more pearls and make a fortune without doing anything!

By the way, is our eagle okay while I’m away?”

Meng Yulan glanced at her son unhappily and said, “Don’t worry, your father and I are taking care of the eagle for you. We let it fly in the yard every day to stretch its muscles, feed it, and let it fly its shaft. Everything is normal!”

Dad Yue Lei said: “It is a rare event that there is a pearl in the swan’s belly. It is impossible for every swan to have one!
But if you are willing to give it a try, that’s fine. The training at the airport is not very busy, so you might as well just have some free time!

Next to the Songjiang River system is where the whooper swans pass during their migration in spring and autumn!”

Yue Feng nodded: “Well, if I can meet him, I’ll try my luck. If not, forget it! I just miss home, so I’ll come back!”

“When are you going back? Are you leaving tomorrow?” Meng Yulan asked again.

“Yes, I have to go back tomorrow. It will take most of the day to travel! There are still four or five eagles in the guesthouse. I am not sure about Jun taking care of them for the time being. Go back as soon as possible!”

Meng Yulan urged: “No matter how anxious you are, go and take a look at Xiaona tomorrow! During the days when you are not at home, Xiaona will come to our house every few days to help with some trivial chores!
Your wife is so capable even before she gets married. You can’t let her down!
Your father and I will keep this money for you! We will also keep these two pearls at home for you!”

“Yes! I brought some gifts for Xiaona and my family when I came back. I’ll deliver them tomorrow!”

……

After chatting with his parents in the east room for a while, Yue Feng felt sleepy. He went back to the west room and played with the big black eagle and the little white spear for a while, then turned off the lights and went to bed.

The next morning, Yue Feng got up early and took care of the eagle and dog at home according to his usual routine. After breakfast, he went to his father-in-law’s house with a lot of gifts brought back from the airport.

I haven’t seen my wife for more than ten days. It would be a lie to say that I don’t miss her. The same is true for Wang Xiaona. When she saw her boyfriend coming, she pulled Yue Feng into her room.

Leaving aside the couple’s sweet private conversation, at around ten o’clock in the morning, Yue Feng and Xiao Tao brought Big Black Hawk and Little White Spear from home and drove straight to the airport again.

When we returned to the airport base, it was already past four in the afternoon. There were already a lot of hawks tied up in the house, and with the addition of the big black eagle and the little white eagle, the house became even more lively.

It just so happened that the falcon stand that I had just asked Brother Jun to arrange for someone to build was also completed. Six falcons and an eagle, wearing hats, were lined up in a row on the falcon stand under the window sill. The shape was so cool.

Just when Yue Feng and Xiao Tao were exhausted after two days of work and focused on resting, the old Li and his wife had already started intermittent hawking on the airport runway.

What is intermittent hawking?

It is quite simple to say. Big eagle hunting and fist hunting are both short, flat and fast methods. From discovering the prey, to the eagle taking action, to capturing the prey or failing, under normal circumstances, it usually takes more than ten minutes at most. With such a short time, it is completely possible to combine with the current airport bird-scaring team. If there is a takeoff and landing mission at the tower, it can clear the area and reach a safe area in a few minutes. This is also a small advantage of using big eagles to drive birds at the airport.

The light yellow eagle in Lao Li’s hands has now adjusted to the actual combat state after experiencing several twists and turns. With the continuous improvement of actual combat experience, its weight, hunting skills, etc. are steadily improving.

The eagle became more and more stable, and the confidence of Mr. Li and his son Xiaolei also grew stronger.

The father and son hadn’t seen Yue Feng and his duo in the past few days, and they were a little curious in their hearts.

Xiao Lei: “Dad, why haven’t we seen that guy called Yue Feng going out for falconry training in the past few days? He was out every day a few days ago to fly eagles for Qingyanzi!”

Li Wenzhe stroked the eagle’s tail with two fingers, and said calmly with a cigarette in his mouth, “I don’t know, maybe he went out to do something else!

Although using blue swallows to fly in circles to drive away birds is more comprehensive than using big eagles to drive away birds, our big eagles will not be eliminated!
I have already talked to your cousin’s husband about this, and the troops will most likely keep these two different strategies for training eagles and driving away birds!”

“In that case, no matter how well they train me, it won’t pose a threat to my staying here, right?” Li Xiaolei showed joy when he heard his father’s words.

“Ok!”

“You said, if I learn how to train Qingyanzi from him, then I can stay and have a better chance of success! It’s always good to have many skills!”

Li Xiaolei seemed to have forgotten the hostile attitude he had shown towards the Yue Feng brothers before, and was planning to find an opportunity to learn from Yue Feng.

“What you said seems to make sense! Do you want to learn? The method they use to train green kites is different from the one we use to train big eagles. If you can understand the general idea, you can master everything!!”

“Yeah! I think, as long as I can stay here at the airport, I will learn anything!”

Seeing his son’s determined gaze, Li Wenzhe was slightly stunned, looking at the turtledoves and wild pigeons in his hands, thoughtfully.

……

That evening, Yue Feng and Xiao Tao were resting in the guesthouse, waiting for Brother Jun to come over for dinner.

Liu Wenzhe, whom I hadn’t seen for a long time, came to the door of the room, carrying the turtledoves, pigeons and other game birds he had caught during the day.

Bang Bang Bang!
“In the house?”

“Who is it? The door is not locked!!” Hearing the noise, Yue Feng climbed up from the kang.

“Why haven’t you been seen in the past two days? Are you feeling unwell? Do you have anything to do tonight? I caught some wild game like turtledoves and pigeons, and I’ll treat you guys to a drink tonight!”

When Li Wenzhe came again, his tone and demeanor were completely different from the last time. He spoke in a much more polite tone and even knew to knock on the door before entering.

“It’s Lao Li! I’m so sorry, we two brothers can’t drink!”

Yue Feng still remembered Li Wenzhe’s expression. Now that the acceptance was completed, Yue Feng didn’t want to have anything to do with him.

If you want to eat and drink something on Jun Ge’s territory, why should you let Li Wenzhe treat you? It’s just a matter of saying hello to Jun Ge. If you are not the same kind of people, then just stay out of it. Yue Feng has always believed in this truth.

“Hey! What are those two eagles tied to the bottom of your wall? I’ve never seen them before.”

While Li Wenzhe was speaking, he looked around the room and soon spotted the big black eagle and the white spear squatting under the window sill with their hats on.

Although Li Wenzhe has never played with peregrine falcons or hunting falcons, he has a chance to encounter them during normal hawk hunting.

However, this pure black and white gyrfalcon was the first time he had seen it. He did not think much of being rejected, but instead his attention was drawn to it.

“Ah, this is the eagle we used to raise at home! We just brought it back! Eagles are shy, so don’t get too close!”

When Li Wenzhe saw the two eagles, his curiosity was immediately aroused, and his hard-earned politeness and manners were unconsciously exposed.

Yue Feng clearly didn’t let him get close, but this guy insisted on squatting down to take a closer look. He even wanted to take off the hat on the eagle’s head to see the face underneath the hat.

“What kind of species is this? Why is there a white one?”

“Hunter Falcon, the white one is an old guy!” Yue Feng made up a story to deal with it and winked at Xiao Tao.

Xiao Tao understood what he meant, took the leather gloves from the table and put them on his hands, bent down to set up the big black hawk, and carried the falcon platform below, moving the position from under the window sill to under the warm wall at the north side of the kang. He left Zhang Wenzhe’s side.

The meaning of this action is actually very clear. I don’t want outsiders to see it, so please respect yourself.

But Li Wenzhe was a man who didn’t quite know what was going on. After Xiao Tao changed the location of the eagle, he licked his face and came over again. (End of this chapter)
