Chapter 35: Shameless greed

”What request?” Wang Anhua wasn’t surprised that Fang Zhengzhi would make a request, after all, he had already experienced Fang Zhengzhi’s shamelessness first-hand.
Village Chief Meng Bai frowned. He felt that it was inappropriate for Fang Zhengzhi to make such a request. After all, Wang Anhua was a Sir from the Hall of Dao. However, the illustration belonged to Fang Zhengzhi, hence he didn’t attempt to vocalize his thoughts.
”I would like to request Sir to copy out the illustration and give one to each member of the hunting squad” Fang Zhengzhi spoke his mind.
”Oh? What for?” Wang Anhua asked questioningly.
He had initially thought that Fang Zhengzhi would request for this to remain a secret or ask for some other benefits, but never did he think that Fang Zhengzhi would only request for him to copy it out a few times.
”Because, I’m thinking that.... if we make use of this illustration to set up the same trap at multiple locations within the Cang Ling Mountain, then, we can link up all these areas so that in the future, the prey would fall into the trap by themselves. All the hunting squad would have to do is to kill off the entrapped prey.”
Fang Zhengzhi expressed his plans. He had wanted to copy the illustration by himself initially but having bumped into Wang Anhua, he decided to let him exhibit his generosity.
Saving more time to read books, what a noble and thoughtful idea! Thumbs up for myself!
In fact,, he had already prepared to give the illustration to the village from the moment he took it out.
The Southern Mountain Village hunting squad had played a huge role in the result of today’s yield. It would had been difficult to subdue all of the Northern Mountain Village hunting squad without getting injured, even if he had managed to trap all of them by himself.
That aside, what if he was the only person who could catch a single prey? That would indeed be very tiring.
Hunting....
It’s just a mean of survival. Fang Zhengzhi wanted to invest more effort into his studies and training.
Thus, giving out the rock formation illustration and hence bringing out its greatest potential, was the best way to go.
”Can... can this method really work?” Village Chief Meng Bai grew excited even before Wang Anhua could reply. If this method was carried out, it would have solved one of the greatest problem that had been pestering the Southern Mountain Village.
It didn’t just mean that the hunting squad would bring in more food, the greater benefit was that the safety of the hunting squad would increase substantially.
” Yes, I think this is doable!” Wang Anhua nodded his head as he looked at the illustration.
The villagers that heard this revealed an expression filled with shock and happiness. This was a great accomplishment that would prevent the Southern Mountain Village villagers from going hungry.
”If it was possible, it would be great!”
”Yes! It would be like having a hunting farm on top of Cang Ling mountain!”
”Village Chef, I think we can give it a try. Since the hunting squad would still continue to enter the mountain as per normal, all they have to do is to bring along an additional shovel. There wouldn’t be any harm in it!” Ding Qingshan, who had personally experienced the sheer potential of the trap, replied enthusiastically.
”Alright, alright ... we will give it a try! Hahaha....” Village Chief Meng Bai nodded. Thinking about what would happen once this plan was carried out to its completion, he envisioned piles and piles of prey stacked up highly.
Mrs Li’s face darkened. Darting her eyes back and forth between Fang Zhengzhi and the smiling Village Chief Meng Bai, she felt a sense of unease.
...
After the joy of a good yield gradually disappeared, Village Chief Meng Bai frowned again.
