Chapter 69 The Price of Wolf Pelts
Li Xiao dare not offend his own mother.
Don't look at him as a village tyrant in Ning village, no one is afraid of him, but in front of his parents, Li Xiao is as docile as a little sheep, without the slightest temper.
It can be said that in Ning Village, the only people who can control Li Xiao are his parents, and no one else can.
Li Xiao didn't expect his mother to have such a bad taste, and she wouldn't let people sleep early in the morning.
"Let me ask you, where did you get the things in the yard?" Jiang Xiurong stared angrily with his hands on his hips.
"Mom, what are you talking about?" Although Li Xiao was stimulated by the cold water, his brain was still a little dull. For a while, he didn't understand what his mother meant.
Jiang Xiurong was also a violent person. Seeing that Li Xiao didn't know what to ask, she came directly to Li Xiao, grabbed Li Xiao's ear, twisted it, and turned it 720 degrees.
In an instant, Li Xiao's head twisted, and a scream came out of his mouth: "Oh, I said, Mom, what are you doing, let go, let go quickly, the ear fell off, the ear fell off."
His cries of pain filled the room.
Seeing Li Xiao like this, Jiang Xiurong showed a happy expression on his face.
At this time, Li Xiao was fully awake.
He also already understood what his mother was talking about.
Li Xiao slapped his head, his face full of annoyance.
Damn it, why did I forget those three wolf skins?
Yesterday, in order to meet Zhao Tiantian earlier. Back home, Li Xiao directly threw the bloody wolf skin on the ground, and then entered the house.
Until he finally fell asleep, he didn't pay attention to those wolf skins, obviously he had forgotten their existence long ago.
"Let me ask you, what did you do yesterday?"
"Don't you already know? I went up the mountain to detoxify a climber."
Yesterday, Chu Hong's parents came by helicopter, which directly caused a sensation in the small village.
They have never seen a helicopter so close, and even some elderly people, this is the first time they have seen a helicopter.
It was precisely because of this that the news that Li Xiao went up the mountain to save people spread throughout Ning Village.
People in the village didn't pay much attention to Li Xiao's rescue. After all, everyone knows Li Xiao's medical skills, and there is absolutely no problem in saving someone.
"I know you went up the mountain to save people, so let me ask you, how did you get the wolf fur in the yard?"
"When I was saving people, I encountered three wild wolves. There was no other way. In order to survive, I had to kill them all." Li Xiao's tone was very flat, as if killing wild wolves was the same thing in his mouth. It's as easy as killing a chicken or a goose.
Seeing what Li Xiao said so casually, Jiang Xiurong was even more furious. She grabbed Li Xiao's ear again. The speed was definitely top-notch. Even if it was Li Xiao, it would be extremely difficult to avoid it. . There is no way, Jiang Xiurong has practiced the trick of pinching ears for nearly twenty years, so he has a deep skill.
The pain just now hadn't dissipated, but Jiang Xiurong came again, and Li Xiao only felt the pain coming from his ears become more intense.
One of his faces has turned into a bitter face.
"Li Xiao, your wings have grown hard, right? You can deal with wild wolves? Do you know how many people in our village were killed by wild wolves?"
At this time, Jiang Xiurong's tone was a little angry.
"Mom, don't worry, those wild wolves are no match for me." Regarding this point, Li Xiao was still very confident.
"Hmph, that's your luck. You didn't meet a real pack of wild wolves. Otherwise, you would have been finished. Remember, those who drowned are those who can swim."
Immediately afterwards, Jiang Xiurong began to bombard Li Xiao's ears indiscriminately.
There is no way, his ears are still clenched in the hands of his old lady, for the sake of his ears, he naturally dare not resist.
About half an hour later, Jiang Xiurong's mouth was a little dry, so she bypassed Li Xiao.
Watching Jiang Xiurong leave the room, Li Xiao finally couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief, he almost felt like dying just now.
boom!
Li Xiao lay down on the bed again, wanting to take a rest.
But he found to his dismay that the drowsiness in his mind had been completely dispelled. Even if he wanted to sleep again, he still couldn't fall asleep.
Helpless, Li Xiao had no choice but to get dressed and get up.
After folding the bedding, brushing his teeth and washing his face, Li Xiao finally came to the yard.
At this time, Li Daozheng was the only one in the yard, and he was circling around the three wolf skins he had brought back, staring at the three wild wolf skins without blinking.
Seeing Li Xiao coming out, Li Daozheng stretched out a thumb, indicating that Li Xiao did a good job.
Pointing to the two wolf skins on the ground, he said, "It cut the wolf's throat with one knife, and it was fatal with one knife. It's a beautiful job."
"What are you going to do with these three wolf skins?" Li Daozheng asked.
"Ask the cobbler Liu in the village to nitrate it for me for a few days, and then I will take it to the county to sell."
"Is this thing very valuable?" Li Daozheng couldn't help asking.
"It's not as valuable as it used to be, but these are wild wolf skins after all. These three pieces are estimated to sell for about 10,000 yuan!" Li Xiao estimated.
"What? Ten thousand yuan!" Li Daozheng was a little surprised.
Since the villagers in Ning Village seldom hunt wild wolf skins these years, they naturally don't care much about the price of wolf skins.
It was also for this reason that Li Daozhen showed that shocked expression when he heard that the three wild wolf skins were worth 10,000 yuan. In fact, this is not to blame for Li Daozheng, after all, the amount of 10,000 yuan does have some weight,
You know, before going to the mountains to pick fungus, Ning Village was very poor, with an average annual income of less than 10,000. If these three wolf skins could be sold, it would take at least one villager to work for a whole year to earn the money.
Li Daozheng suddenly discovered that since Li Xiao disappeared and reappeared three years ago, their family has undergone earth-shaking changes. Among them, Li Xiao has changed the most. Not only is he not as mischievous as before, but he can also drive the villagers to get rich together. Until now, Li Daozheng didn't know how much money Li Xiao had.
After breakfast, Li Daozheng urged Li Xiao to hand over the wolf skin to Liu cobbler for tanning.
Just when Li Xiao was about to leave, Li Daozheng brought him a basket of eggs as a reward for tanning wolf skins.
They are all in the same village, and they live not too far away.
Soon, Li Xiao gave the wolf skin to Liu cobbler and told him his request, and Liu cobbler readily agreed to Li Xiao's request. But he confiscated the basket of eggs.
The reason is very simple. He earned a lot of money while picking fungus. To Li Xiao, he was so grateful to him that he could help him with something. Cobbler Liu was even more happy, so naturally he would not accept things.
In the end, Li Xiao had no choice but to take the eggs back.
