Chapter 217 Mountain Closure Notice

"Why are those wild boars here again?" The people working in the fields couldn't help but complain when they heard the team leader's words.

"What's wrong? Has this happened before?" Guo Hui, who had been working in the countryside for less than a year, looked curiously at the man who had just complained.

"That's for sure!" The man sighed and said helplessly, "This kind of thing happened a couple of years ago. Although wild boar herds are difficult to deal with, there are also more powerful beast herds, such as a large number of wolf packs. If they encounter them, they will be driven out of their original territory. The wild boar herds that are driven away will wander around and look for new territory."

"I encountered it once a couple of years ago, right before the autumn harvest. Our brigade was thinking of going into the mountains to see if we could catch anything to replenish our supplies before the harvest. We almost didn't make it back. If we hadn't run fast, we would have been dead. We even came back quite badly injured. Later, the brigade leader had to ask the armed forces to come into the mountains to clear it out, which finally calmed down the nearby mountains."

Upon hearing this, Guo Hui's face was filled with shock and a bit of curiosity. He turned to look at the mountain range behind them. He had originally planned to try going up the mountain recently. He had heard that even the brigade leader's daughter had learned to catch pheasants in the mountains, and he hadn't had a bite of meat in a long time.

"Hey Guo, don't do anything reckless. If you disobey orders and go into the mountains on your own, the brigade leader will really deduct your work points. Don't end up not only getting nothing but also losing all your work points. You new educated youths don't get much grain at the end of the year anyway, and if you lose a few more days' worth of work points, you'll be starving next year." A middle-aged man next to him shook his head slightly when he saw Guo Hui's nonchalant expression.

"Guo Hui, what the old man said makes sense. Let's listen to the captain. It's not worth making the captain angry again." Jiang Zihang happened to be nearby at that moment.

Although he became a warehouse manager, the warehouse did not require someone to watch over it all the time. He only needed to go there in the morning and evening. In order to earn work points, Jiang Zihang would come to work in the fields whenever the warehouse did not need anyone.

He'd heard Guo Hui say quite a bit these past few days that he wanted to go into the mountains to get some meat, and he was afraid the guy would act up.

"Okay, I understand. Since the captain has said so, I will definitely follow the organization's arrangements."

That's the good thing about Qishui Brigade; most people are very obedient. As for the few exceptions, they're basically lazybones and good-for-nothings. Even if Wei Zhongping didn't say that, they wouldn't just run off into the mountains.

Meanwhile, Bai Nuo and Fang Meng returned to the educated youth compound, retrieved their bicycles, and headed straight out of the village.
