"Everyone, please stop talking. Once Brother Hongyang has made up his mind, no one can change it. I believe in him."
The women started gossiping again, and Aunt Liu said worriedly.
“Girl, those are seven wolf pelts. What if we accidentally tear them and they don’t fetch a good price? It’s not too late to find someone now. Once we find someone, we’ll have peace of mind.”
The other women nodded in agreement.
Although they understand that the man should be in charge of the household and that he should listen to them in all matters, big and small.
But in their eyes, this matter was far too big.
Seven wolf pelts in total, each worth tens of dollars, that's hundreds of dollars.
Even a farmer working hard all year round couldn't earn that much.
Such a large sum is no laughing matter.
Unexpectedly, Wang Liying smiled.
"I believe in him. If something really happens, then we'll just consider it practice for him. Anyway, Brother Hongyang is capable; he'll catch wolves again."
Hear her words.
Everyone sighed with regret.
However, everyone admires the young couple.
When a man is capable, a woman will unconditionally trust him.
Always speak up for him and stand on his side.
When something important happens, I don't interrupt, but stay quietly by his side, cheering him on.
A woman as obedient as her is truly rare.
A man with such talent is one in a million.
[Wang Liying fully supports the host, luck value +200!]
Two hours later.
He Hongyang came out from inside.
He not only skinned the seven wolves, but also cut up all the remaining wolf meat.
In fact, he could have finished all these tasks in an hour.
But in order to prevent outsiders from becoming suspicious.
So I rested inside for another hour before coming out.
When they saw the wolf skin in his hand...
Everyone stared in astonishment, their mouths agape.
From beginning to end, without the slightest discrepancy.
The wolf pelt was intact and brand new, without a single tear or unevenness.
The plush texture is exquisite and lifelike!
It has a warm and smooth feel, and is especially warm to the touch.
Especially that wolf skin.
Unique color.
The entire wolf pelt gleamed in the sun.
It feels very thick to the touch.
The alpha wolf must have been well-fed, which is why its fur appears thick and glossy.
13. Achieve fame in one battle
Everyone outside was worried about him.
Unexpectedly, He Hongyang not only succeeded, but his skills were even better than the person they had introduced before.
"That's amazing! In the blink of an eye, you've finished seven wolf pelts."
"Judging by this craftsmanship, I think it can sell quite a lot."
"This wolf pelt, this craftsmanship, it would be snapped up immediately if it were taken out."
"Strange, why are there no holes in his body? Wasn't he shot with a hunting rifle? Where did he shoot from?"
At that time, only Old Man Liu was with him.
Old Liu excitedly described the scene at that time.
"From the moment he first saw the wolves, he had already planned where to start."
"Look at this one. The gun went in through his stomach. When he was skinning him, he started from the stomach first. The bullet hole was cut in two, so you can't see it at all."
"And these two, he was shot in the neck. I was worried the bullet would come out of the head, which would damage it. But wouldn't you know it, the bullet came out of the wolf's mouth, so the head was completely intact."
"The most unusual one is the picture of the alpha wolf. It was shot in the stomach but didn't die. I thought Brother He would shoot it again, but he just used a slingshot to blow out both of its eyes."
Hearing his description, everyone sighed with emotion once again.
I never expected the situation to be so dangerous.
If He Hongyang hadn't been so skilled, he certainly wouldn't have been able to deal with these wolves so perfectly.
They earned it through their own abilities.
So no matter how much these wolf pelts cost, they won't be envious.
Because they don't have that ability.
"You mean a slingshot? Didn't he have a gun? Why didn't he shoot the wolf in the eye?"
Old Liu lit his pipe and continued.
"If you use a gun, the bullet will come out from behind your head, but with a slingshot, you can control the force much better."
"And that bullet to the neck, why did it come out of his mouth? Could his bullets bend?"
Old Liu grabbed the man's neck, but before he could even apply any force, the man opened his mouth wide.
With another push, he let out a loud howl.
"Now you understand, right? Brother He not only calculated the angle, but also how the wolf would react after being shot and how much force it would use."
Everyone looked at him with admiration.
It turns out that a good hunter is not just someone who simply takes a gun and shoots.
Instead, you need to use your brain.
Your mind determines your actions.
Only those with a clear mind, strong judgment, quick reflexes, and powerful weapons can become truly good hunters.
Those villagers who used to go up the mountain to hunt were only engaging in small-scale activities.
She's no match for him at all.
Everyone wanted to surround He Hongyang and ask him to share his experience.
Peeling skins is a task that can be done at home.
If He Hongyang could offer some guidance, wouldn't they be able to make some money in the future?
This is much more profitable than growing crops.
Old Liu pushed those people aside.
"This is someone else's skill, how could he easily pass it on to outsiders? Didn't you see he kept the door closed just now? It's because he was afraid you guys would steal it."
When he said that, no one got angry; instead, they burst into laughter.
"Old Liu, we were just joking. To learn carpentry and bricklaying, you have to apprentice for three years. This skill is not something that just anyone can learn."
“Look at Brother He’s hands, and then look at our hands. We’re good at growing crops, but how could we possibly handle this job?”
The women were even more envious.
These leathers can sell for several hundred yuan each once they're sold outside.
If their own men could earn that much, they would definitely serve them the best food and drink every day, and do whatever they were asked to do.
"Girl, you must have been incredibly lucky to have a man like this in your past life."
"A man is a woman's lifelong support, so you don't need to worry about the future."
"Hehe, you'd better serve such a good man day and night, or someone else will snatch him away."
Wang Liying was even happier.
When she went out today, she was still worried, thinking: even if we can't catch anything, it doesn't matter, we can just treat them as if they came to visit the village.
I never expected He Hongyang to be so capable.
Not only did he hunt seven wolves, but he also learned the skill of skinning them.
He's really hiding his true abilities.
Yesterday's rabbits and pheasants were just child's play; today they're really showing their true colors.
He Hongyang's excellence made the eyes of all the women in the village light up.
I must behave well and serve him well in the future, otherwise how can I be worthy of him?
[Wang Liying admires her host even more, Luck value +300!]
It's getting late.
It seems I can't go back today.
Old Liu repeatedly invited them to stay the night.
Someone like He Hongyang, if you could have a meal at his house and stay overnight, that would be enough for him to brag about for a year.
The elderly couple gave up the main house.
They heated the kang (a heated brick bed) until it was warm and then took out two quilts that had been freshly aired during the day.
After eating his fill and lying on the kang (a heated brick bed), He Hongyang felt a sense of comfort.
Sleeping on this kang (heated brick bed) in winter is much more comfortable than sleeping on a regular bed.
"Once we buy a house, we'll build a kang (heated brick bed) and light a fire directly over it. It'll be much warmer than a stove."
During the day, when he said he was looking for a bricklayer and a carpenter, I thought he was going to renovate the house we were living in.
I didn't expect it to be about buying a new house.
"Buying a house is a big deal. Houses are so expensive, can we afford it?"
"What do you think?"
She had witnessed He Hongyang's abilities today; if others couldn't do it, he certainly could.
"I know you're capable, but I don't want you to work too hard."
She put her hands on his feet and said, "Let me warm your feet, let's go to sleep early."
With her by his side, how could He Hongyang possibly sleep?
“You’ve forgotten what I said during the day.”
Thinking about what he said during the day, and then thinking about how he looked last night, I felt a pang of sadness.
The lights were turned off.
