Chapter 233 The Raptor Crosses the River
"Young man, these two places, let alone the director of the Educated Youth Office in my district, even the person in charge of the Educated Youth Office in the 49th City can hardly intervene."
The fat director took a breath and continued.
"But I have a place with pretty good conditions!"
"Okay, Director Liu, please stop keeping us in suspense and just speak frankly!"
After Ning Yuan heard that the two places he chose were difficult to arrange, he didn't have much expectations for other places, so he said helplessly.
"Southern Shaanxi! At the foot of the Qinling Mountains, there are lush forests and abundant wild animals. You shouldn't be starving. However, the biggest difficulty there is the sheer number of wild animals!"
As soon as the fat director said this, Ning Yuan suddenly felt enlightened!
Yes, this place is not bad. Compared with the bare Loess Plateau in northern Shaanxi, the Qinling Mountains in southern Shaanxi is much more interesting.
As for what the fat director said about the large number of wild animals that often hurt people, that’s not a big deal. Without saying anything else, he will just tell you what he knows.
Fatty Fan has a Type 99 sniper rifle at home that his father captured on the battlefield in northwestern Shanxi.
Old Fan was a famous sharpshooter in the brigade back then. This gun has been with him for a long time and has sucked the blood of many Japanese soldiers.
It has been well maintained till now!
The Type 99 sniper rifle is a new generation of military standard rifle developed by the Japanese based on the Type 38 rifle.
The actual combat shooting accuracy of this sniper rifle is similar to that of the Type 38 standard rifle, and its actual combat accuracy is also very high.
However, it uses a short 7.7mm bullet, which is prone to rolling after hitting the target.
Therefore, the Type 6.5 rifle has much greater lethality against targets than the Type /Type rifles that use mm caliber ammunition.
With just a gun in hand, what other beasts, other than wild boars, bears, and tigers, would dare to confront them head-on? (Oh, and there's also the Qinling-specific species, the iron-eating beast!)
Zhong Yuemin also has a gun at home, and many of his friends have guns and cannons hidden at home.
(Let me make it clear that normally, the control of these hot weapons in the Forty-Nine Cities is definitely stricter than in the local areas, but these meritorious generals still have certain privileges!)
Therefore, as long as you wait until you go to the countryside, hide these guys in the space in advance, take them safely on the train, and take them out when you arrive at the Qinling Mountains, there will be no problem!
As for other things like snakes, insects, rats and ants, they are not difficult to deal with.
Just prepare more quicklime, realgar powder and other insect repellents.
The more Ning Yuan thought about it, the more he felt that this place was suitable.
Moreover, there are many ancient tombs near the Qinling Mountains.
Most of the large tombs from the Han and Tang dynasties are located in the Hanzhong and Chang'an areas.
Tombs from the Ming and Qing dynasties are widely distributed in the Qinling Mountains.
The key is that the climate is also good. In the future, whether you are engaged in breeding or doing industry after the reform and opening up, you can build your own base.
(The feng shui is really good. I don’t know if you still remember the news from a few years ago. The villa complex in Qinling Mountains was suppressed after it was demolished and dared not be exposed! !)
There was nothing to say, Ning Yuan made the decision immediately.
"Then I'll leave it to you, Director Liu! Please keep these four thousand first. I'll send the list of our brothers to you tomorrow, and you can arrange us according to the list. Once you're done, I'll send you the rest of the money!"
The fat director thought about it and nodded, saying it was not too much.
Having talked about this, there was a result. Ning Yuan and Zhong Yuemin greeted the fat director and went out directly.
In fact, Zhong Yuemin was a little confused as to why Ning Yuan spent so much money just to bring his brothers together.
"Dude, ten thousand! Is it worth it? I don't know! Isn't it just going to the countryside?"
Ning Yuan and his friend had not yet left the courtyard of the Youth League Office, so they did not explain much to Zhong Yuemin.
"Yuemin, some things are hard to say here. I'll explain them to you when we get back!"
After looking at the educated youth all over the yard, Zhong Yuemin nodded and followed Ning Yuan out of the yard.
Waiting at the gate of the courtyard were the young men under their command.
After saying hello, Ning Yuan led everyone back directly to Xiebian Hutong.
It was almost noon when they returned to the house, and Fatty Fan and his group, who were unable to get out of bed, were forced to get up by the sweltering weather.
A group of people were discussing what to eat for lunch when they happened to run into Ning Yuan, Zhong Yuemin and others who had just returned from outside.
"Hey Ningyuan, Yuemin, where were you guys doing so early in the morning? You were nowhere to be seen when we woke up! Tell us the truth, did you go out to eat something delicious without telling us?"
Fatty Fan teased as he rushed over to Ning Yuan and the others, looking them up and down to see if they had brought back anything delicious.
"Eat, eat, eat, Fatty, why do you only know how to eat and sleep? You are the reincarnation of a pig!"
Zhong Yuemin slapped Fatty Fan on the big round head and teased him!
"What are you all doing gathered in the yard?"
Ning Yuan saw that a large group of them were standing under the awning in the yard, and he didn't know what they were arguing about, so he asked Fatty Fan.
"Well, we're still arguing about what to eat for lunch. Wu Zhongguo said he wants to make rice and stir-fry a couple of big pot dishes, and Lao Su and the others want to eat sesame sauce cold noodles. No one can convince anyone, and the situation is getting really heated!"
The fat man seemed to be annoyed by the noise, so he ran to Ning Yuan and the others.
Ning Yuan thought it was a big deal, so he made a decision directly to the many young people in the yard.
"We'll have rice today and cold noodles tomorrow! Old Wu, take the brothers and go get it first!"
After Ning Yuan finished speaking, Wu Zhongguo agreed happily and gathered seven or eight buddies to go with him to prepare food.
The other group of buddies weren't too depressed either. Didn't Ning Yuan just say that they would have cold noodles tomorrow?
After arranging lunch, Ning Yuan took Zhong Yuemin, Fatty Fan, Yuan Jun and others into the house.
As soon as they sat down, Zou Cheng came in with a bowl of sliced watermelon.
After Ning Yuan asked Zou Cheng to sit down, everyone first took the watermelon and ate it to quench their thirst, and then began to talk about what happened today.
"Yuemin, didn't you ask me today at the Youth League Office why I was spending so much money and effort to gather all the brothers together? To be honest with you, I did this just to make sure that all of us brothers could survive well in this rural environment!"
"Survive? You're talking about something serious, aren't you? It's just a job in the countryside, so what? Are you going to let us starve to death?"
Before Zhong Yuemin could answer, Fatty Fan frowned and spoke first.
"That's right, I think you're taking it too seriously, buddy. We're so powerful in the old city, and we're still so powerful in the countryside. If anyone dares to bully us, I'll show them the methods of the old city guys!"
As expected, Zhong Yuemin still had the arrogant personality that had never suffered any setbacks. He spoke to Ning Yuan, Yuan Jun and the others in a domineering manner.
