Chapter 57: Hunting rabbits

Views:

As the days passed, the weather gradually became hotter. The school uniform was changed to a brown short-sleeved standard fine linen shirt, the lower body was still black trousers, and the standard half-high leather boots on the feet were replaced by flat leather shoes. The uniforms for girls in junior high schools are similar to those for boys. The upper body is the same short-sleeved shirt, but the lower body is replaced by a long black skirt.

For this reason, during the twenty-minute break every day, many boys gather in the corridor, looking eagerly at the girls' classroom opposite, hoping that those girls will come out to show off their wonderful figures.

Claude was a little annoyed today because his mother was scolded by his father about leather shoes this morning. For some reason, Mr. Morsant has suddenly suffered from a severe case of miserliness in the past few days, because Claude is still a sixteen-year-old boy with normal physical development. Some time ago, his mother bought leather boots and bought a pair of large ones, but the result was only After more than a week, when the weather got hot, the school asked everyone to change into flat leather shoes. When they took the leather shoes out, they found they were the same, so my mother went and bought a pair one size larger.

In the morning, Mr. Morsan got angry for some reason when he heard what his mother said. He thought that his mother did not live a careful life at all. He pointed out a major issue that his mother had overlooked, which was that he had just bought a pair of leather boots that were one size larger for Claude. He had to put them away because of the heat before wearing them for ten days, but Claude would still grow up. , if you want to wear them again after summer and autumn, it is very likely that the leather boots will no longer fit.

Mr. Morsan thought that these new leather boots would probably be useless after just ten days of wearing them. Isn’t this a waste of the family’s money? He thought that if Claude could bear to live in them, the pair would have become useless. The old leather boots that are a little too tight only need to be worn for another ten days or so, just in time to replace them with new flat leather boots, thus saving the family money on a new pair of leather boots.

Claude wanted to stand on his mother's side and criticize his father. He made such irresponsible remarks when buying a pair of boots. Isn't it just four riaso? He needed to be so angry, but Mr. Morsan scolded him again. Dun, said that it had been more than a month since I bought him a new matchlock gun. I often watched him carrying the gun to the woods outside the town to practice shooting, but why couldn't he contribute to the family when he came back without catching some prey? It’s also good to buy some meat. If you can’t catch a mountain antelope, why can’t you kill two rabbits and take them home

Claude was speechless and had no choice but to go to school holding in his anger.

Bock Al knew a little bit about the news. He quietly revealed to Claude that his fathers were raising the first batch of expeditions in order to realize the route plan from White Deer Town to the overseas territory of Tilsim on the Nubisia continent. funds. Some of the words revealed by his father indicate that many people do not believe that this route exploration plan can be successful, and there are some difficulties in raising funds. Therefore, it is understandable that Mr. Molsang has become a little angry recently. It is he who is leading this plan.

Well, if he traveled to this different world and became Mr. Morsan's second son, then he deserved a scolding because the time traveler took over his son's body.

However, being looked down upon by Mr. Morsan made Claude feel very uncomfortable. The reason why he couldn't hunt the mountain antelope was that he couldn't find it, but there were always rabbits. Although he was smarter, Claude didn't believe that he couldn't hunt those rabbits.

Now when Claude went to practice shooting in the woods outside the town, he had set the target a hundred meters away. There is no other way. When hunting rabbits, you can't expect to get within fifty meters of them. A hundred meters away may prevent the rabbits from escaping so quickly. Just from a distance of a hundred meters, the rabbit is only as big as a soybean. Claude still needs to practice his eyesight.

After three days of practice, I can hit seven or eight red hearts on a target a hundred meters away. Claude felt that his training was almost ready for actual combat, so he made an appointment with Vericro to hunt rabbits together in the afternoon.

The reason there were only two people was that Erikson was going to the dock to get his fishing boat, while Bockaar was busy doing his business, promoting the new target designed by Claude. It is said that business is good, and the capital of the four silver thalers invested by the four partners has doubled. The master carpenter of the Boker family's trading company is currently being entrusted to make the third batch of eighty new targets and print a new batch of targets. Three hundred sheets of paper

Bockaar's Obash II standard matchlock gun is currently being used by Viricero, and as usual, the sight is removed.

After the first class in the afternoon, Claude and Verricro were no longer preparing for the next two equestrian training classes and left.
