- "Xiao Hao, here you go, come in quickly and help mend the net." Er Mazi shouted when he saw Liu Junhao arriving.
"No, we are going to leave soon. Your Rabbit Network is not ready yet. Why did you call me?" Liu Junhao was even more confused. I originally thought that I would just take the yellow skin and wander around the orchard, but I didn't know that I would have to work as a coolie.
When I entered the house, I found that other people in the village were already busy.
Hearing what he said, Er Mazi immediately complained: "These rabbit nets have not been used for seven or eight years. When I took them out just now, I realized that there are big and small holes drilled by rats. They are useless unless they are repaired."
Using a net to catch hares will naturally bring great results. If you surround a piece of wild grassland, you can catch seven or eight of them. However, this thing has great limitations, and many people must participate. If there are few people, the rabbit can easily escape from other places.
The heyday of Rabbit.com was in the 1980s, when there were many idle people in the village. Nowadays, everyone is busy, and the number of people is not enough, so few people use this thing anymore.
There is no technical content in mending rabbit nets. Anyone in the village who can weave fishing nets can do it.
Liu Junhao took the net needle and grate board, squatted down and started to get busy. The netting needle is made of a wide piece of bamboo and is shaped like an ancient sword. The upper end is sharp, the lower end is bifurcated, and there is an apex in the upper part for hanging thin threads.
The grate board is also an essential tool for weaving nets, which can control the size of the mesh.
There are more than a dozen rabbit nets with holes everywhere. If you really have to repair them all by yourself, you will definitely be busy in less than half a month. But it couldn't handle the large number of people, so after three strikes, five divided by two, the net was repaired in half an hour.
Look at the time, it¡¯s around ten o¡¯clock in the evening, just right.
Liu Guangju gave an order, and everyone headed toward the orchard with miner's lamps and rabbit nets in hand.
"Xiao Hao, how do you use this rabbit network?" A curious tourist asked on the way. He has seen a lot of catching fish with nets, but he has never seen this before catching rabbits.
Before Liu Junhao could speak. Er Mazi over there has already explained: "Simple, just surround the orchard You see, this thing is called a net. When you lower the net, it must form an angle with the direction in which the hare is running, and then we go to the other end to catch it. If the hare is frightened and runs forward, it will naturally run into the net. Especially at night, this thing is so blind that it can't even see the net."
When we arrived at the place, under the command of several old people in the village, everyone divided into three groups to set off the net. Lowering the net also requires skills. First, the lower part of the net must be dragged on the ground to prevent hares from getting out from underneath. Also, the net needs to be looser. Don't tighten it, otherwise it will be damaged by the rabbit running at high speed.
Within a few minutes, the rabbit network was closed, everyone was contacted by phone, and Liu Guangju issued the order again. The dogs were barking and the people were shouting, and they entered the orchard from the other side with miner's lamps on.
The momentum of this large force was absolutely terrifying. Within two minutes, black shadows were seen emerging from under the fruit trees. He ran away in panic.
Plop, plop. More than a dozen rabbit nets were knocked down one after another. Most of the fat hares did not escape, but were kicking and struggling in the net.
Of course, there are also fish that slip through the net, which requires a few yellow-spotted skins to catch up. These guys didn't fail either, almost every one of them came back with a rabbit in their mouth to claim credit.
"Good guy, everyone who participated in the night hunt was shocked. A total of nineteen rabbits were caught Fortunately, Liu Guangju made a decisive decision. Otherwise, in two days, this thing will definitely destroy the orchard.
The whole group of people are in high spirits. After closing the net, Liu Guangju made arrangements to invite everyone to go home for a drink.
Liu Junhao quickly declined. His wife and children were still waiting at home, and he couldn't get away at all.
Everyone knew that his situation was special and they didn¡¯t force it. Liu Guangju handed over two hares and said they were his share of the prey.
Liu Junhao refused outright. His family really didn¡¯t lack this thing. Starting from the beginning of winter, the two yellow-spotted rabbits would come back every now and then to have a tooth sacrifice. The couple is not interested in rabbit meat at all now. There are still five dried hares hanging under the eaves, all reserved for Zhang Ma and the others.
Seeing that he was telling the truth, Liu Guangju took the two hares back without any politeness. Now there are about 200 people in the entire night hunting team, and these hares will not be enough for them to eat when they are ready.
When they got home and entered the room, the two little guys fell asleep early. Zhang Qian was still playing on the computer with headphones.
The boss was dishonest when he was sleeping, sucking with his little mouth, which looked very interesting. Liu Junhao couldn't help but pinch his little face.
Who knew that this twist would not matter, the little guy was woken up and burst into tears. Next came the waiter. The two brothers competed with each other on their voices, one being louder than the other.
Zhang Qian rolled her eyes at her husband and quickly took off her headphones to coax the children. It took her more than ten minutes to coax them back to sleep.
I originally thought that the heavy snow had stopped, but I didn¡¯t know that it started to snow in the middle of the night.?
When Liu Junhao went out in the morning, he found that another thick layer had fallen in the yard.
Having no choice but to pick up the shovel and shovel the snow again. After he finished his work here, he helped Professor Zhao as usual.
After breakfast, the bowls haven¡¯t been washed yet. Aunt Zhang Qian called. He said that he had run out of peanut oil last time and asked Liu Junhao to help buy some more.
Afraid that the explanation on the phone would not be safe, Liu Junhao had no choice but to go to the village again. The peanut and soybean oil in the village is also very popular now. Visitors who come to Liujiagou basically have to take a few pounds with them when they go back. Nowadays, people in the village rarely sell oil crops such as peanuts and soybeans on the streets. They just squeeze the oil directly.
By simply increasing this process, the village¡¯s income per person will increase a lot.
As soon as I arrived at the entrance of the village, I saw the little boy leading a few friends to tiptoe towards the haystack. Behind them, there were seven or eight tourists.
"What are you doing?" Liu Junhao asked in a low voice.
"Uncle Xiao Hao, we are pulling carrots, you come too." The furry boy answered in a softer tone.
"You guys are playing, I have something to do in the village." Liu Junhao waved his hand and refused.
¡°Plucking radishes is just a figurative term. It¡¯s not really about pulling radishes in the field. What they are looking for are pheasants, rabbits and other animals. The first heavy snowfall in winter is the best time to catch pheasants and rabbits.
Especially the pheasants and rabbits that were just born that year, these things had never seen heavy snow. Overnight, the sky and the earth were completely white. Without reference objects, they can easily lose their sense of direction and can't even tell the difference between north, south, east, and west. At this time, if you chase a pheasant away in the wild, you will be surprised to find that this thing cannot fly far at all. Although its wings are flapping very powerfully, it is actually just flying in a big circle.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the way, is like the yellow cow calf calling the street - Mengmen.
Once pheasants lose their way in heavy snow, they will instinctively choose a reference point.
After the crops have been harvested in the field, the tall wheat stacks at the edge of the field are the most obvious place. Moreover, this thing is big and can keep out the wind and cold. Therefore, when the pheasants return to their nests in the evening, many of them will fly in the direction of the wheat stack, and finally plunge into the wheat stack with their tails exposed.
The situation of hares is similar. Some will dig a passage in a sheltered area near the wheat pile to keep warm under the wheat pile.
By mastering this rule, as long as you get up early in the morning, you can catch pheasants and rabbits around the wheat stacks. And it's very easy to catch it now, it doesn't take any effort at all. The only thing you have to do is to quietly walk up to it, see the pheasant tail, reach out and lift it, just like pulling out a carrot, and pull the thing out.
Of course, this rule only applies to pheasants and rabbits born in that year. Those that have grown for more than two years have already been through many battles and are thieves and thieves, and they will not keep warm in such a place.
"Uncle Xiao Hao, come here and see what kind of footprints these are." Before Liu Junhao could leave, the furry boy started shouting again.
"You naughty kid doesn't even recognize rabbit prints, right?" He didn't go over, but just replied from afar. During this time, there are basically no other animals except hares.
"No, this footprint is smaller and lighter than the rabbit's." The furry boy said.
"Oh?" Liu Junhao walked over and saw a row of shallow marks left near the ditch next to him. Judging from the shape, it shouldn't be left by a hare. Not voles eithertheir footprints are smaller.
Liu Junhao looked at it carefully and finally answered uncertainly: "It's probably a hedgehog."
"Hedgehog??" When everyone heard this answer, they all showed suspicious expressions.
Maozi directly pointed out the flaw in his words: "Uncle Xiao Hao, you are so uneducated, I despise you! Hedgehogs should hibernate in winter, how could they appear on a snowy day?"
¡°Yes,¡± a tourist echoed. Hedgehogs hibernate, this elementary school student knows.
"Haha, who said they won't appear in winter. You have all been misled by the books. I believe that even if hedgehogs hibernate, they must wake up regularly to eat food" Liu Junhao explained with a smile.
He didn¡¯t know this when he was a child, and he did something stupid once. I thought the hedgehog would hibernate throughout the winter, so I threw it into a large water tank and ignored it. As a result, when spring came, I found that this thing had starved to death.
"real or fake?"
Many people don¡¯t know this common sense, and most of them look surprised.
"Whether it's true or not, we'll find out if we follow him and see." After Liu Junhao finished speaking, he took the lead and walked forward.
Behind him, there were a group of naughty kids following him.
Not far away, everyone found traces of the hedgehog in the thatch beside the ditch.
The snow bends the thatch into a perfect shape.??A curved space. The hedgehog was dark and huddled up, and next to it, there were actually three little ones who were just born.
"A nest of hedgehogs, they come out to look for food together?" the furry child screamed.
"What kind of food are you looking for? This little thing looks like he was just born." Liu Junhao mourned for these little guys. They are so pitiful, born at the wrong time. This season, it is a problem for female hedgehogs to find food, not to mention having to carry several oil bottles.
The only result of coming to earth early is suffering. If nothing is done, they may not survive this winter.
"Then, Uncle Xiao Hao, why don't you take it home and raise it?"
"Why is it me again?" Liu Junhao suddenly became depressed.
Nowadays, when someone knocks down a wild animal, the first reaction is to send it to his home!
