Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Yuan Zhao Di and Yuan Pan Di were still feeling depressed when Old Yuan appeared, crawling over.

“Big brother!” Yuan Lu and Yuan Shou were the closest, so when they saw Old Yuan’s state, they thought their big brother had encountered some wild beast. They immediately raised their axes and went forward to help him.

Although the two brothers were already in their forties, their bodies were really strong.

“I, I’m fine!” Seeing his two younger brothers coming to him with a fierce look, Old Yuan waved his hand and sat on the ground. He beckoned to the two and said, “Hurry up, get the boys to bring the basket!”

“Big brother? Why do you need a basket?” Yuan Lu blinked in confusion.

“I’ve found a pheasant cave!”Old Yuan chuckled.

“Really?”

When they heard their big brother’s words, Yuan Lu and Yuan Shou’s eyes widened simultaneously.

“Of course, hurry up. Things had indeed changed for our Yuan family!” Old Yuan was in a great mood.

Yuan Lu and Yuan Shou immediately called out to their sons, who were still busy cutting down trees.

They might have entered the mountains to cut trees, but each of them carried a basket. After all, the mountain products and wild fruits in the mountains were all good things. Cutting a basket of wild vegetables would be good even if it didn’t work out.

Under the lead of Old Yuan, the group of people immediately rushed toward the ravine in the west.

“Be quiet. If you scare away the pheasant, I’ll beat you up when we return!” Old Yuan warned as he left.

They didn’t need Old Yuan’s instructions. Everyone understood that they couldn’t make any noise.

The entrance of the pheasant cave was huge, as tall as a person.

Under Old Yuan’s command, a group of people quickly appeared at the entrance of the pheasant cave. They swarmed up, each holding a basket on their back, and blocked up most of the pheasant cave.

“Haha, it’s done!” Seeing the entrance of the pheasant cave blocked, Old Yuan laughed complacently.

The next step was to catch the pheasant.

Old Yuan decided to go into the cave himself. It was dark inside the pheasant cave, so he had to prepare a torch before entering.

In just a few moments, a few simple torches were ready.

“Big brother, let’s go together!” Yuan Lu and Yuan Shou were also in high spirits.

Thus, the three brothers took the lead and rushed into the pheasant cave with their men.

As they barged in, the pheasants that were resting in the pheasant cave suffered a disaster.

Half an hour later, the chicken-catching battle ended, and all the pheasants in the cave had been caught.

“Let’s go, let’s go home!”

Since he had gotten so many pheasants, he definitely had to send them back first.

While it was still early, they quickly sent these wild pheasants to the town and county to sell. They were all money.

“Jiao Jiao really is the treasure of our Yuan family!”

Everyone agreed with Old Yuan’s praise. It was normal to catch pheasants in a pheasant’s cave in the middle of winter. But now, it was the beginning of summer, and this large group of pheasants was hiding in the cave. It was ridiculous!

However, Old Yuan couldn’t care less about why the pheasants hid in their caves. In any case, the Yuan family had earned a small sum for no reason.

Therefore, he was just happy!

When Old Yuan and the others returned to the village, the villagers were all envious of the pheasants they had gotten.

As a result, in the following period, other than working hard to make a living in the fields, the villagers would run into the mountains, thinking about whether they could make a fortune like the Yuan family.
