Chapter 262 Another Bronze Gallbladder

Yue Feng’s account is actually very simple. He catches eight female minks with cubs in their bellies every winter. If he does this for four years, he will have 32 female mink parents at home.

The wild-caught female minks are well fed and well cared for. Assuming that each female mink gives birth to three cubs in the spring of the first year in captivity, after four years, there will be nearly 100 first-generation breeding minks.

Assuming that the female mink gives birth to half male and half female pups, that would be about 50 pairs of breeding minks.

After four years, the first generation of minks born in the spring of the first year have begun to reproduce. If they are raised in artificial cages and provided with good food and water, the minks that have entered the breeding period can produce three to five cubs every year for at least eight to ten years.

A female mink gives birth to three cubs a year. According to the current market conditions, raising a cub and selling its skin can generate a minimum profit of five to six hundred yuan.

This does not include the additional reproductive value of the seed source.

In fact, if there are sufficient resources and reasonable management, the population of this thing will expand exponentially.

It takes a little time to go from 20 to 100, but from 100 to 500, the time will be greatly shortened.

When you have a sufficient number of source bases, the speed at which you can make money will be extremely rapid, and there is also a huge threshold.

What kind of business is a good business? It is one that has no worries about sales, is extremely scarce, and has a huge entry barrier for outsiders.

Yue Feng knows his ability level, so why ask him to join politics? He can’t do it.

Let him go into business? He may not be that cut out for it.

However, Yue Feng still has enough confidence to rely on the advantages of his rebirth, plan some resources that he can control in advance, and let his relatives and friends who follow him live a good life.

Yue Feng briefly told his brothers about the future prospects of the mink farm, and they immediately became very motivated.

……

With the first successful case after mastering the capture method, the next search for fish in the mountains and wild is just a matter of time.

Led by Dahuang, the group searched suspicious areas one by one in the ditches and ponds below Dalongjian.

Once the odor information is locked by Dahuang, the blasting team will follow up immediately.

The sound of firecrackers exploding and the smell of gunpowder from the blasting team scared the sable hiding in the cave out. Then it was the Air Force’s turn. The big Black Hawk did the job as if it was a game. It was simple and crude.

At around one o’clock in the afternoon, Yue Feng had another adult female mink in his hands.

They went up the mountain at dawn in the morning. After climbing over mountains and crossing ridges for such a long time, their stomachs were already growling with hunger. Yue Feng and his friends found a sheltered place, collected some dead branches and firewood, made a fire, and started some simple repairs.

I didn’t feel tired at all while walking and searching, but once my butt touched the ground, I didn’t want to move anymore.

This morning’s harvest was very good, two female minks and one large male mink, not counting the value of the cubs in their bellies, the market price of the fur of three perfect sables, one male and two females, is close to 540 yuan, based on the last purchase quotation from the supply and marketing cooperative of 845 for first-grade large skin and 1900 for special-grade male skin.

Everyone found a good sheltered place and built a fire. The brothers took out the dry food and lunch boxes they brought from the mountain.

With wild boar meat, the food my aunt prepared for going up the mountain was really good. In addition to the steamed buns made of two grams of flour, there was also an aluminum box full of sauerkraut and pork belly.

Heat up the dry food and vegetables by the fire, fill your stomach with the warmth, sit on the ground, stretch your arms and legs and take a break. The fatigue of the morning slowly disappears. While basking in the sun, you can still hear the whistling wind in the distant mountains and forests. It feels so magical.

After eating and drinking and taking a short rest, the time had unknowingly reached 2:15. There were still about three hours before dark, and everyone was thinking about catching sables in the afternoon and was full of energy.

In the next two hours, my second uncle took everyone to wander around several ditches and ponds below where almost no one usually went, and harvested another adult male mink.

It’s already 4:40, the sun is setting, the days are short, and it feels like it’s been a short while since I had lunch, but it’s already getting dark.

“Feng, it’s almost five o’clock, let’s go back!” Second uncle reminded Yue Feng.

Yue Feng nodded: “Okay, let’s go back!

Second uncle, please help me remember the places we searched today, and continue tomorrow! At today’s efficiency, we can complete the plan in three or four days!”

“We should have turned back a long time ago. We were too busy searching the mountains to catch sables. There’s also a blind bear waiting for us to go back and take it!” Xiao Tao muttered to himself.

After Xiao Tao’s reminder, everyone realized that they were so excited about catching four sables in one day that they forgot about the Tiancangzi they found when they came here.

My second uncle waved his hand and said, “Don’t delay. We can go back without taking a detour anyway. From the vicinity of Tiancangzi to the bottom of the mountain, it’s a long downhill slope. We have many people, so it won’t be difficult to pull the sled back!

There are also benefits to returning to the village after dark, as the villagers can’t see us and we can save a lot of bear meat!”

“We have to move quickly. We can’t kill Tiancangzi in the dark. He’s a blind bear. Even if we have enough firepower, killing a bear is risky!”

“Let’s go, let’s go, hurry up!” The guys didn’t take the bear seriously at all. After all, they had three guns in their hands, two of which were 56 and a half. Under normal circumstances, the bear would not be able to cause any trouble and would only end up dead.

After chatting for a while, my second uncle led everyone down the mountain. After passing several large ditches running nearly north-south, everyone returned to the path they took into the mountain in the morning.

It took less than half an hour for the group to arrive at the location where Tiancangzi was discovered in the morning.

There were no signs of outsiders around, and at this moment, the Tiancangzi was still there as it was. The only difference was that in the morning it was the morning light, but now, what fell on the entrance of the Tiancangzi cave was a touch of orange-red sunset.

“With so many guns and people here, we don’t have to go through the trouble of leveling the ground and digging a fire. Xiaofeng, you take charge of the arrangements!” The second uncle glanced at everyone and handed over the command of the battle to Yue Feng.

Yue Feng also did it simply. He took off the 56mm rifle from his shoulder and stuffed ten bullets into it.

“Xiaowu and Xiaowen, don’t move your guns, turn on the safety behind me and stay alert!
I’ll take charge of this warehouse first, and you can take action when I let you shoot!

Those who don’t have weapons, take your dogs and move away. Clear the area within 30 meters!”

Soon, except for the three gunmen, Xiao Tao and his second uncle retreated to the periphery with the dog.

Yue Feng was very confident. He picked up the gun, turned on the safety, aimed at the tree trunk about one and a half meters away, and pulled the trigger.

Boom!

After two consecutive shots, the roar of the bullets scared away the birds roosting in the pine forest in the distance. Yue Feng held the gun steadily, aimed at the entrance of the cave, and waited for the blind bear to come out.

The most efficient but risky method is to use force to hide in the warehouse. The bullets will hit the tree trunks, and the hibernating bears inside will be awakened immediately, and then they will come out of the warehouse to check.

Suddenly, a low bear roar was heard from the sky warehouse, and the tingling and trembling feeling enveloped the three people under the tree again.

Yue Feng was not vague either. He fired another shot at the place where the bullet had landed.

The first two shots could be said to have woken up the blind bear, and the third shot completely enraged the big guy in the tree hole.

After hearing the sound of claws rustling on the inner wall of the tree hole, a big blind black bear with shiny black hair soon showed its head out of the tree hole.

It was obvious that this blind bear had gained a lot of weight in the autumn. His body was round and plump, as if he had been squeezed out of the tree hole.

After it struggled to get about two-thirds of its body out of the tree hole, Yue Feng aimed at the bear’s head and decisively pulled the trigger.

boom!
A gunshot was heard, and the blind bear, who was struggling to crawl out with his limbs just a second ago, was shot in the head. His whole body froze as if he had been hit by acupuncture points, and then he fell headfirst from the tree.

With a weight of more than 300 pounds, it fell to the ground like a big black meat ball. There was a steep slope under the tree, and it hit the snow without stopping, rolling at least ten meters before stopping.

Without the captain’s order, no one dared to move. Only four dogs discovered the black bear and started barking wildly.

Yue Feng shook out the bayonet of the 56mm rifle and installed it in place. Then he held the gun and approached the bear’s body vigilantly. He went around the back of the bear’s body to check and confirmed that the bear had died from a bullet-pierced skull before he breathed a sigh of relief.

“Damn it! Xiao Tao, come here and take out the gallbladder!” Yue Feng shouted.

“Brother, your shooting skills are really awesome. It took three shots to kill Cangzi, but you only shot one to end the battle with the bear!” Xiao Tao came over happily, holding a knife.

Yue Feng grinned and lowered his head to glance at the blind bear’s crotch.

“This is a male bear. Let’s see how lucky we are! If we are lucky, we might get a bronze gallbladder! You have a good idea today. You will be the one to open the bear’s stomach and take out the gallbladder!”

Xiao Tao was indeed very lucky today. He discovered a bear crayfish in the morning and accidentally drove out the first sable in the morning, which led to Yue Feng discovering the details of the earth hole under the snow shell. Xiao Tao can be said to be the lucky star today.

With a bit of mischievous interest, Xiao Tao measured the blind bear’s penis with the back of his knife, then quickly cut the bear’s neck to let the blood out, and then began to open the bear’s stomach and take out the gallbladder.

Xiao Tao had become an expert at killing bears and taking their bile many times before. After he skillfully opened the bear’s chest, he saw the huge bear gallbladder attached to the side of the liver.

“Hey! Brother Feng, you really got it right! A big copper gall!”

Xiao Tao swiftly used the knife to cut through the muscles above and below, and then took out the black bear blind lantern that was still steaming.

A large copper gall, larger than a fist, shines with metallic light in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Yue Feng took out a small cloth bag containing bear bile from his bag and carefully packed the bile.

The four dogs had also eaten with the humans at lunch time, and they did not have any obvious reaction when they saw the steaming black bear organs.

In comparison, Yue Feng’s big black eagle is different.
