Chapter 75: Farming Points, Using Internal Organs as a Base!
Chapter 75: Farming Points, Using Internal Organs as a Base!
Compared to the exorbitant price of the mutated wolf king, Tom, a senior executive at Aipai Company, had no interest in the ordinary gray wolves that had been killed. However, he still promised to find a buyer for Yuan Linghan, though the price wouldn't be too high.
Knowing that wolf meat might not taste particularly good, but it was highly nutritious, Yuan Linghan immediately asked Tom if there were any channels for bulk customs clearance. If customs clearance was possible, he planned to ship all the wolf meat back to Xia Country.
Hearing that Yuan Linghan had this idea, Tom was also very direct: "Customs clearance is simple, but are you sure you want to ship all this wolf meat back? Air freight and refrigeration, that's not cheap!"
"It's alright! Wolf meat might not be a particularly rare or delicious ingredient for you. But in Xia Kingdom, if you can find a chef skilled in cooking this ingredient, it can be prepared into a nourishing medicinal dish."
Furthermore, this stuff is common to you, but it's quite rare in Xia Kingdom. Just those wolf pelts alone, if properly processed and transported back, I believe there's no shortage of wealthy people willing to pay for them.
"OK, once this is over, you can have Tim arrange it."
"I plan to continue hunting animals for the rest of the time. Compared to Xia Kingdom, the wildlife resources here are indeed much more abundant. I also plan to take this opportunity to upgrade my Wilderness Hunter level."
Yuan Linghan had known beforehand that high-ranking hunters in the Hunter Alliance enjoyed numerous advantages internationally. Currently, he didn't lack points for mutated beasts, but rather points for ordinary wild beasts. And once he accumulated three points for the same type of beast, he would no longer receive any more.
In short, of all the gray wolves Yuan Linghan hunted, only three will earn him valid points; the remaining wolves will not receive any points. This is to prevent people from using a single wild animal to farm points.
For Yuan Linghan, who is participating in this "Wilderness Solitary Living" event, killing gray wolves will not earn him any points. However, he will have the opportunity to hunt wild animals such as black bears, moose, and lynxes, and earn the corresponding points.
Upon learning this, Tom smiled and said, "Indeed! With your current situation, the special points from hunting two mutated beasts are enough for you to advance smoothly to level eight Wilderness Hunter. Hunters of this level are very rare even in the Alliance."
But you'll need to hunt more different kinds of wild animals to accumulate the corresponding points. Since you have this idea, I definitely support you. Any leftover game will be declared through customs and shipped back to you later.
"Thanks!"
"No, to be precise, I should be thanking you. With this B-grade mutated wolf king, my position in the company will be more secure, and I'll get even more extra benefits. From now on, your business is my business!"
"Then I wish us a pleasant collaboration!"
Yuan Linghan did not refuse Tom's offer. He knew very well that his future journey would be fraught with bloodshed. With the backing of Aipai Company and the Hunter Alliance, it would save him a lot of trouble.
Hunting mutated beasts is indeed very risky, but the rewards are equally substantial. It's not just the financial gain, but also the personal benefits Yuan Linghan receives. In short, their current cooperation is a win-win situation!
After seeing off Tom and his group who had come especially for the occasion, Yuan Linghan, having finished cleaning up the battlefield, began processing the large number of gray wolves. First, he skinned all the wolves, then disposed of their internal organs.
The remaining wolf carcasses were simply thrown into a snow pit dug from the nearby snow. Given the current outdoor temperature, the carcasses would freeze solid in just a few minutes. They could then be packed and boxed for refrigerated transport back to China.
What intrigued the production team most was that Yuan Linghan deliberately preserved the reproductive organs of the male wolves separately during the dissection. Although the production team couldn't understand why, Yuan Linghan knew that many people would likely find such things interesting.
It's about using the principle of "like cures like"!
The wolf entrails that Yuan Linghan cleaned out were used to build a den. The target of this den was the carnivores in the snowy jungle. So many entrails would surely attract a large number of carnivorous beasts.
He threw the wolf entrails onto the snow slope on the other side of the camp. As night fell, the entrails, filled with the strong smell of blood, attracted many carnivorous beasts, including the lynx he had been wanting to hunt.
Upon seeing the lynx that had arrived at the snow slope first, and hearing the commotion, Yuan Linghan, who was standing on the ice and snow wall, sneered and said, "You dared to steal my rabbit, now it's finally your turn to pay the price."
Although he knew that many carnivorous animals were still lurking in the nearby snowy forests, Yuan Linghan had no interest in the coyotes and foxes that had come. Only ferocious beasts like lynxes and black bears were worthy of his heavy arrows.
Two lynxes led the way, while the other observing beasts began to select and gnaw on the entrails. Just then, Yuan Linghan, standing on the icy city wall, swiftly fired two arrows, killing the lynx that was focused on devouring its entrails on the spot.
The sudden turn of events caused the other coyotes and foxes, who dared not approach the lynx, to flee in panic. Seeing these wild beasts flee, Yuan Linghan did not feel any regret, but immediately left the camp.
The two male lynxes that had been shot were dragged back to the camp to be skinned and gutted. Lynx pelts were undoubtedly more valuable than gray wolf pelts. But Yuan Linghan had absolutely no interest in selling pelts for money.
Rather than using them to exchange for money, Yuan Linghan hoped to obtain the legal documentation and then give them away as gifts. For example, to his long-lost girlfriend, Xiaohua, and to the elderly hospital director suffering from rheumatoid arthritis.
For Yuan Linghan right now, with his extraordinary hunting skills, making money in the future will not be difficult for him. The earnings from participating in "Wilderness Solitude" this time are several times higher than before.
Although this amount of money might require a loan to buy a luxury villa in Beijing or Shanghai, the problem is that Yuan Linghan doesn't have high requirements for his housing. He actually prefers the tranquility of the suburbs or countryside to living in the city.
Secondly, given the buzz generated by winning this season's "Living Alone in the Wilderness" competition, his popularity will likely experience a massive boost upon returning home. With that popularity, how could he possibly struggle to make money?
Furthermore, how much wealth is enough?
Although Yuan Linghan couldn't truly "regard money like dirt," he also didn't want to be a slave to it. For him, money was enough as long as it was sufficient for his needs. As for his girlfriend, Chen Duling, her earning power was probably no less than his.
He didn't want to be a kept man, but he did hope to be truly financially independent during their relationship. After all, romantic moments sometimes require financial backing. What's the point of romance if you're constantly worrying about daily necessities?
After dealing with the two lynxes he had just shot, Yuan Linghan noticed several bold foxes carefully gnawing on the discarded entrails of a gray wolf, which he did not shoot. Around midnight, finally, a large wild animal appeared.
Watching the black bear finally appear, roaring and trying to intimidate the other predators, Yuan Linghan laughed and said, "Instead of hibernating properly, you insist on coming out to hunt for food. Well then, I'll send you on your way!"
Previously, Yuan Linghan wouldn't have dared to hunt too many wild animals, fearing he wouldn't be able to handle the consequences. Now, with Tom helping with customs clearance, he naturally wouldn't miss this opportunity. After all, even with money, one might not be able to afford the meat of these protected animals back home!
