Chapter 274
After Li Chen heard Wang Furong's shout, he immediately rushed over, and then pulled her out of the mulberry tree field.
"Sister-in-law, what's going on? Where are the snakes?
"Right where I just picked mulberry leaves, there was a big, long snake."
Between Wang Furong's words, the panicked expression on her face was fully displayed.
"Don't be afraid first, I'll take a look."
This mulberry tree land was rented by Li Chen to Wu Changle, so he didn't know much about the situation here.
For his own safety, he found a relatively long wooden stick, and then walked towards the place where Wang Furong had just picked mulberry leaves.
"Hiss..." Sure
enough, a silver-ringed snake as thick as an arm spit out a snake letter towards Li Chen.
"Li Chen, is there a snake?" Wang Furong asked behind her back.
"Sister-in-law, you are right, there is really a snake, and it is still a poisonous snake. But don't panic, I'll deal with it. "
The silver-ringed snake is a deadly poisonous snake, Li Chen naturally will not let it go, otherwise once it causes harm to other villagers, it will be a sin to release itself.
Moreover, in 1998, the silver-ringed snake was not a national second-class protected animal, and it was not illegal to dispose of it, because the silver-ringed snake was officially included in the ranks of national second-class protected animals on August 1, 2000.
So, Li Chen pulled up a long wooden stick and smashed it directly with a stick.
This silver-ringed snake thief was clever, quickly dodged Li Chen's attack, and also attacked Li Chen.
Fortunately, Li Chen reacted in time and quickly took several steps back.
"Li Chen, this poisonous snake is too dangerous, or I'll go back and ask the snake catcher in our village to come and deal with it." Wang Furong suggested.
"It's okay, you go back and let the Parseltongue catcher come over, I'll deal with it here first." Otherwise, once I leave, this silver-ringed snake may run away. Li Chen agreed to Wang Furong's suggestion.
In the 1998 period, many villages in Bobai Town still had people who specialized in catching snakes to sell, and this kind of people were called snake catchers.
The snake catcher in Nanliu Village is called Zhou Anquan, the origin of this name, you don't need to guess that it must be his parents hope that he can come back safely in the days when he catches snakes in the future, after all, catching snakes is a risky thing, especially for those poisonous snakes, if you are unlucky, you may die at any time.
Zhou has been catching snakes for decades, and so far, it is indeed quite safe, and he has never been bitten by a poisonous snake.
After receiving Wang Furong's notice, he immediately came over with the motor.
"Li Chen, where is that silver-ringed snake? Did you run away? Zhou Anquan asked Li Chen as soon as possible.
"It hasn't run away yet, but it's very aggressive and dodges. It seems to be a silver-ringed snake that is not simple. Li Chen replied.
"Hehe, met me Zhou An, no matter what kind of poisonous snake it is, it can only obediently accept its fate, you stand aside first, I will deal with it."
When Zhou Anquan saw such a large silver-ringed snake, it was as if he saw an eighteen-year-old beautiful girl, and his saliva almost flowed.
After he let Li Chen stand aside, he directly carried the motor and rushed up.
I saw that he quickly covered the head of the silver-ringed snake with a net pocket, and then another charged tool pressed on the silver-ringed snake's body, dividing the silver-ringed snake by two in three strokes.
"Uncle Zhou, this silver-ringed snake has huge poison, let's kill it directly, lest it continue to harm people in the future." Li Chen suggested.
"Beaten to death? Hehe, I don't want to fight to death. This thing sells for a good price. Zhou Anquan said with a smile.
"Okay, you're a professional snake catcher, you know the market. Then this silver-ringed snake will be left to you.
What Li Chen was thinking was that if he didn't release this poisonous snake, what he was most afraid of was that the kind of person with false compassion would release poisonous creatures everywhere and then harm others.
He was also relieved to hand it over to Zhou An, after all, Zhou An'an was a professional snake catcher, and once a snake fell into his hands, there was no talk of release.
"Thank you."
Zhou Anquan happily put the corona silver-ringed snake into the snake bag.
"That Uncle Zhou, since you are all here, then simply look in these mulberry fields, if there are other poisonous snakes, you have disposed of them." Li Chen said.
"No problem, I'll just walk around."
Zhou Anquan said boldly, and then continued to look for poisonous snakes in this large mulberry tree field.
"Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry, now that the poisonous snake has been caught, you can continue to pick mulberry leaves. I will let Uncle Zhou capture all the poisonous snakes here, and it will not put you in danger."
Li Chen was afraid that Wang Furong would not dare to pick mulberry leaves because of the silver-ringed snake just now, so he was also comforted at this time.
"It's okay, I was just scared for a while, rural people, who haven't encountered one or two poisonous snakes, it's okay now." I'll continue picking mulberry leaves and bring them to you later.
Wang Furong replied, and then continued to walk into the mulberry tree field to pick mulberry leaves.
Li Chen was also afraid that poisonous snakes would continue to appear here, so he stayed here and watched Zhou An'an looking for poisonous snakes.
"Li Chen, there are several holes here, and it is estimated that there may be poisonous snakes. Just if you want to dig them, you have to destroy a small part of the mulberry field, what do you think? At
this time, Zhou Wei came back and reported the matter to Li Chen.
"It doesn't matter, as long as you can dispose of these poisonous snakes, it doesn't matter how many mulberry trees are destroyed. You just go straight to the dry. Li Chen said.
Human life is the most noble and precious, so what Li Chen has to do is to ensure the safety of everyone, and he doesn't care about these mulberry trees at all.
"Okay, then I'll go back and get the attack and start drying."
As a professional snake catcher, Zhou Anquan has a variety of snake catching tools at home, and he will use different tools to deal with these snakes in different environments.
After saying a word to Li Chen, he happily went back to prepare.
Is there such a professional snake catcher in your village?
After Wang Furong and another woman picked enough mulberry leaves today, he did not continue to wait for Zhou Safe to catch the snake here, but took them back to his sericulture greenhouse.
After all, these silkworm seedlings have just been purchased, and they have to eat mulberry leaves quickly.
"Li Chen, there are so many silkworm seedlings, you can't get them alone, I'll help you."
Wang Furong was very enthusiastic, and saw that Li Chen was operating alone, so she came over to help.
Li Chen saw that she was also quite skilled in her work, and planned to wait for the sericulture business to be on the right track later, so he directly hired her as an employee of sericulture to help him feed these silkworm seedlings.
After all, he couldn't do this by himself all the time, and now because he had to operate it according to the knowledge of his previous life, he had to do it himself.
"Sister-in-law, thank you, you will follow me home in a while, and I will pay you today's wages." I went out in a hurry this morning and didn't bring any money with me.
"Li Chen, we have thought about it, you don't have to send us money every day. You can send it once a week. Anyway, you silkworms have to feed mulberry leaves every day, and we will come over every day to help you pick them, so it's okay to send them once a week. We are not in a hurry to need money for the time being. Wang Furong said.
"Okay, then I'll respect your intentions and send you money in a week."
Li Chen felt that this was also good, and he also saved the trouble of giving them some money every day.
"Li Chen, wait a minute, here is your wife's letter."
As soon as Li Chen returned halfway from the silkworm greenhouse, Zhou Haishan, who suddenly came over, called out to him.
