Chapter 236. Divide it
"Pig slaughtering, pig slaughtering."
Children are the easiest to be happy, watching the two big wild boars jumping joyfully. But the caution they’ve developed over these days made them remember to deliberately keep their cheerful voices down even when excited.
When the two wild boars were carried into the Big Cave, Hua Chengtian, who got the news, also came over. Seeing his son and the children circling around the wild boars unscathed, he smiled contentedly, saying, "Good."
"While they’re still warm, hurry and slaughter the pigs," Hua Chengtian said happily, "Let’s divide them up like before, anyone can bring things to trade."
"Hey, village chief," everyone laughed cheerfully.
The rest of the tasks didn’t require Hua Chengtian’s instructions; everyone spontaneously got moving, those with basins grabbing them, those with ash setting it down.
The four members of the Wang family led by the butcher were the main ones handling the knives. The wild boar hides, coated with mud and resin, were thick and tough, eliminating the need to boil water. Holding the butcher knife, they sharpened it on the whetstone and began skinning straightaway.
This was considered a laborious task, manageable inside the cave but impossible outside.
Soon, the two big wild boars, except for their heads, four hooves, and tails, were skinned clean.
The bodies were divided into several portions, placed in large basins, enticing the appetites of everyone around.
