Chapter 293 Let’s work together (2/2)

Li Du saw the bullet hole left by Hans in the wild boar’s head.

As he approached him, Hans said with a smirk, ”Man, I thought you said you were going to attack. Is this how you attack? By letting it run at me?”

Li Du said impatiently, ”If you hadn’t run away just now, we would have defeated it already.”

”I ran away?” Hans asked him with an exaggerated expression. ”I’m the one who killed the wild boar. The king of the guns in Flagstaff, the king of wild—”

”Enough, stop bragging. Look at your shaking legs. What’s the matter? Do you have Alzheimer’s disease?” Li Du teased.

Hans grinned sardonically. He had seen Li Du climbed up the tree just now, and was frustrated because there hadn’t been enough time for him to climb up one. The wild boar had been coming after him.

He hadn’t known the wild boar was running away from Big Quinn, and had thought he was in a critical situation; that was why he had aimed his gun at the wild boar and shot it dead.

The wild boar was right near him when it died; it was killed with only one shot.

Big Quinn used a rope to tie the wild boar up. ”Give this to the forest authorities—we can earn 500 dollars.”

Li Du asked, ”Is this why you hunted the wild boar?”

Big Quinn smiled. ”Yes, the hunting season has begun. I want to make some money by hunting wild boars.”

Wild boars were not protected animals, and didn’t belong to the national park. They were the descendants of domestic pigs who had run away from farms.

It was tough to kill a purebred wild boar, but not impossible. These descendants of the domestic pig might have looked fierce, but their ability to fight was average.

But they brought huge damage to the ecosystem. They were omnivores that ate anything, including bird eggs, young offspring, of wild animals, and all of the plants in the park. They were destroying the ecosystem.

They also reproduced quickly. Many states in America organized hunting activities to protect the environment from overpopulation.

Hans was not interested in the 500 dollars, and felt too tired to bring the wild boar down the mountain. He waved his hands. ”The wild boar is yours. You can take the money.”

Big Quinn shook his head. ”No, you’re the one who killed it. I can’t take your reward.”

Li Du said, ”The money isn’t enough—Big Fox doesn’t want to waste his energy.”

Big Quinn was surprised. ”It’s five hundred dollars.”

Hans said, ”I don’t care how much the reward is. I’m not going to drag the wild boar down the mountain. Oh God, give me a break.”

Delighted, Big Quinn said, ”Alright, man. So, can I take the wild boar?”

”Yeah, it’s yours.” Hans waved his hand nonchalantly.

Big Quinn hung the wild boar on the tree. After he finished his work, he said, ”I’ll bring it down the mountain later. Today could be a very rewarding day. One more wild boar and I’ll be able to pay you the 3,000 dollars back.”

Li Du had lent him money once, which he hadn’t yet returned.

Li Du shook his head when he heard this. ”No hurry—aren’t you working today?”

Big Quinn said, ”I usually wake up early to do my job in the community areas and street. I’ll clean again at night so I’ll have time in the day for myself.”

Li Du nodded with satisfaction. ”You are very hardworking.”

Big Quinn smiled. ”It’s for a living, isn’t it?”

Li Du said, ”Yes, we are working hard for a better life. But you are getting too little reward for your hard work, man. I’m offering you a job again—let’s work together.”
