After last night, her mother Chen Xianglan finally recovered and started making breakfast in the kitchen early in the morning.
When Li Shiqiang came to the kitchen, he saw two steamers placed on the stove.
He pulled it open and took a look, and found that there were big white steamed buns and steamed buns inside.
"Mom, you are finally willing to use white flour!"
Li Shiqiang looked happy and quickly reached in and grabbed the bun.
"Huh...huh...so hot..."
"Well...!"
Just one bite of the freshly steamed buns made Li Shiqiang so hot that he couldn't open his mouth from ear to ear.
"You little melon! You boil it and eat it in your mouth."
Chen Xianglan rolled her eyes at him angrily, showing disgust.
Li Shiqiang smiled honestly and said, "It's been a long time since I've eaten the meat buns made by my mother. They're so delicious!"
Chen Xianglan couldn't help but raise the corner of her mouth, and asked quickly: "You're not going to the mountains today, why are you getting up so early?"
"I'm going to the commune to buy a gun."
"Buy a gun!?"
He wanted to use the gun after buying it. He couldn't hide it from his family, so Li Shiqiang simply said it.
Chen Xianglan stared and asked, "Why did you buy that thing?"
Li Shiqiang smiled nonchalantly, took another bite of the meat bun and said, "A better gun will save you some trouble in the mountains."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xianglan didn't say much.
In her opinion, guns are not a strange thing.
A few years ago, Chen Xianglan also practiced shooting with the militia in the village.
Not only her, but also the younger women in the village were taught how to use guns.
Chen Xianglan can even disassemble a Type 56 semi-automatic rifle while blindfolded.
Don't be surprised. Due to the international situation these days, the great Chairman has already said: As long as 700 million people are trained, they will become 700 million militiamen.
However, as the situation eased later, the training of militiamen gradually relaxed.
After having breakfast, Li Shiqiang took five wolf skins down the mountain and went straight to the commune.
"It doesn't stop day by day." Li Nongchang said with some dissatisfaction when he saw a man and a dog leaving home.
"Can't you find anything else to say?"
Chen Xianglan glanced at him angrily and said, "The second child is going to buy a gun so that he can take care of things when he encounters them in the mountains in the future."
"Why did he bring Xiaohua with him when he went to buy a gun? The wound on the dog's neck hasn't even healed yet."
"If the dog can't follow its owner, who else will it follow? Fortunately, there is Xiaohua. I heard from Erwa that Xiaohua bit a wolf in the mountains yesterday."
Chen Xianglan shook her head and said with some regret: "It's a pity that there is only one dog in the house. If there were more dogs, the second baby would be able to walk sideways in the mountain."
"What a beautiful idea you have! Do you want him to walk sideways? Should he walk backwards?"
Li Nongchang glared and walked directly out the door.
Chen Xianglan was clearing away the dishes. When she saw it, she quickly said: "Why are you leaving so early? Let's go together later!"
"It's true that lazy people pee a lot. I'm too lazy to wait for you. I'll just take my time."
Li Nongchang ignored his family and hurriedly came to a house in the village.
"Wang Laowu, you can't do it at home?"
"Yeah, Li Paitou!"
A man in his fifties was sitting on the threshold eating breakfast. He was also surprised when he saw Li Nongchang's appearance.
Did something happen if you came home so early and before going to work?
Li Nongchang didn't waste any time and said directly: "I heard someone say that your relatives have a water dog and they are about to give birth to puppies, right?"
Wang Laowu tilted his head and said somewhat strangely: "Li Paitou has changed his career? Instead of being in the platoon, he has started working. Are you going to become Li Paitou?"
"Fuck Headhunter Li."
Li Nongchang didn't say what he wanted to do, and directly asked: "Can you bring me some puppies?"
Wang Laowu shook his head and said: "That Linshui dog is not an ordinary good dog. Many people have already booked Zai Zai."
After hearing this, Li Nongchang began to retreat.
But thinking about what Chen Xianglan said today, he still gritted his teeth and said, "Well, tell your relatives. I'll buy that puppy for one yuan."
These days, when people in rural areas want puppies, usually no one asks for money. They just take something they grew themselves and show their appreciation.
"So willing? Li Paitou!"
As soon as he heard that he had to buy it with money, Wang Laowu immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll tell my relatives in two days."
After deciding on this matter, Li Nongchang went to Houshan Bamboo Forest.
But as soon as he arrived, Chen Xianglan was greeted by a long-winded voice: "I thought you came to work in a hurry, but you just came now!"
...
This morning Li Nongchang was in a hurry to find someone to buy a dog, and Li Shiqiang was also in a hurry to find someone to buy a gun.
After he arrived at the commune, he started asking around for a man named Zhang Laoguai.
When Li Shiqiang was hunting in his previous life, whether he bought guns or ammunition, he basically bought them from Zhang Laoguai.
He remembered hearing Zhang Laoguai say before that in the late 1970s, before the gun ban was issued in 1981, he had almost any gun he could get his hands on.
There are air guns, shotguns (birdguns, old-fashioned shotguns), all types of firearms of Type 5 and 6, and you can even get a few grenades.
It's a pity that Li Shiqiang spent almost a whole morning looking for him in the commune, but he still couldn't find out about Zhang Laoguai.
"Could it be that Zhang Laoguai came from the later years?"
Unable to find Zhang Laoguai, Li Shiqiang had to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to sell the wolf skin.
Unexpectedly, this wolf skin was two yuan more expensive than the mountain muntjac.
Five wolf skins totaled fifty yuan.
"Brother, do you want a gun?" Li Shiqiang had just walked out of the door of the supply and marketing cooperative when he suddenly heard someone next to him ask in a low voice.
Hearing this slightly familiar voice, he immediately turned around.
"Zhang Laoguai!"
The middle-aged man whom Li Shiqiang called Zhang Laoguai was stunned for a moment, and then asked angrily: "Brother, what do you mean by this?"
Lao crutches refers to a person who has been using crutches for a long time.
The middle-aged man in front of him has nimble legs and legs, and he doesn’t look like a man on crutches at all.
"Ha ha ha ha..."
Li Shiqiang smiled and suddenly remembered that Zhang Laoguai's leg was broken when he went up the mountain to fight with someone in the 1980s.
Now that my legs are in good shape, I naturally don’t call him Zhang Laoguai.
However, Li Shiqiang only knew his surname Zhang in his previous life, and really didn't know his name.
"Come on, brother Zhang, let's find a place to talk."
Li Shiqiang tugged on Zhang Laoguai's clothes and took him to an alley.
"Brother, just tell me what you have to say, don't make any nonsense." Zhang Laoguai said with an impatient face and some disgust.
Li Shiqiang stopped talking nonsense to him at this time and said directly: "Give me a five-six-and-a-half-pound gun with a hundred rounds of ammunition. How much does it cost?"
As soon as he heard about the business, Zhang Laoguai immediately changed his expression and said with a smile: "Brother, I told you that you wanted to buy a gun! Five or six hundred and a half, right? I'll give it to you cheaper, two hundred yuan." .”
When Li Shiqiang heard this, he turned around and walked out of the alley without hesitation.
