Before leaving, Li Long left the wolf he had shot and a Mongolian gazelle with the Company.
Otherwise, there was too much to fit in the vehicle.
"Xiao Long, let me tell you, if you have time to come again after the Spring Festival, I can get you another few dozen hides." Big Old Chen accepted the wolf and gazelle, then gave Li Long his word.
"From now on, we'll save all the hides our Company gets for Xiao Long. It's only a few dozen kilometers anyway. Other people might need a day or two to make the trip, but for Xiao Long, isn't it just a step on the gas?"
Wang Mingjun looked at Li Long's Jeep with considerable envy. Only regimental leaders got to ride in one of those, and each Regimental Farm had only one. Apart from the regimental commander and political commissar, practically nobody else could hope to ride in it.
Although Li Jianguo had said the vehicle belonged to the Prefectural Federation of Supply and Marketing Cooperatives, it was obvious that Li Long could use it however he pleased.
That was good enough.
Li Long left the wolf and gazelle behind. Neither was anything rare to the Company, but Wang Mingjun appreciated the gesture and planned to stuff a few more things into the Jeep. Li Long took the opportunity to ask for some ammunition.
"Ha, that's easy." Wang Mingjun turned and told the clerk to bring over a metal box of ammunition.

Li Long and the others got into the Jeep and left. Wang Mingjun and Big Old Chen watched it disappear
