Chapter 236: Chapter 234: Totally Outrageous—Dubbed the King of Pig Catching!

Deep in the ranch, within the iron-barred trap.

An astonishing scene unfolded.

Wild boars were attracted by the aroma of the pig feed, crawling in from outside the grassland and then entering the middle of the trap to feast.

Roughly counted, there were a total of seventeen or eighteen.

It seemed like two small herds, with two boars even fighting over the food.

Hadan and Bugude were so scared they didn’t dare to breathe deeply.

One wild boar is already frightening enough, let alone so many inside the iron fence now.

If they were to run wild in the grassland, injuring people or livestock, it would be unimaginable.

At this moment, Jiang Feng was also a bit nervous.

He thought it would be good enough for seven or eight wild boars to enter the trap.

But he didn’t expect the aroma of the pig feed to waft too far, directly attracting seventeen or eighteen of them!

That corn pumpkin porridge was truly a supreme delicacy for the wild boars.

So, these wild boars crawled into the grassland, seeing the iron cage illuminated by lights and the food inside.

Wild boars didn’t perceive it as a trap, rather they felt it was an oasis, a paradise.

The livestream’s popularity was unprecedented, showing 100,000+ viewers, but actually, the real-time online count was at least 200,000.

Jiang Feng could see the exact numbers in the backend, but he didn’t make any noise about it.

The barrage of comments was so fast that they couldn’t see what others were saying.

[Whoa! So many wild boars!]

[Captured so many? I thought catching one would be impressive!]

[Completely outrageous!]

[Wow, what a great harvest!]

[Master Jiang’s methods are way better than hunting!]

At this time, more wild boars were constantly coming in from outside.

Soon, another herd of wild boars entered the ranch, heading straight for the trap.

It was clear that wild boars were indeed overpopulated now, running from the forest in the no-man’s land to activity on this side of the grassland.

The wind on the grassland was strong, attracting the wild boars out and about with the smell of corn porridge.

One by one, the wild boars rushed into the trap.

The corn porridge had long been eaten up, but besides the porridge, there was a lot of corn scattered on the ground.

There was plenty of corn, enough for the wild boars to eat for a long time.

All the newly arrived wild boars entered the trap.

This time, there were a total of twenty-five wild boars staying within the trap.

There were both big and small ones.

Jiang Feng didn’t hesitate anymore and immediately pressed the trap’s activation button.

A snap sound was heard.

The viewers in the livestream were startled.

Then, they saw a giant iron cage descend, crashing down hard on the ground.

At the moment the iron cage landed, all the wild boars stopped eating and started running around frantically after being startled.

But they couldn’t escape, only circling the edge of the cage.

This trap was finally proving its worth.

And it was very useful; in just one night, twenty-five wild boars were captured.

"Amazing! They really caught them!"

Hadan immediately got off the car, looking toward the cage.

Bugude was excited as well.

Jiang Feng remained calm, but seeing the shadows move inside the cage, he felt a bit tense too.

After all, wild boars are not easy to deal with.

They not only eat crops but can also hurt and bite people.

If bitten, one would need to get stitches at the hospital.

Jiang Feng took a breath and immediately contacted the Forestry and Grassland Bureau and the Police Station.

Capturing wild boars is certainly a contribution; there is currently a subsidy for eliminating wild boars, which is two thousand yuan per boar.

After reporting, Jiang Feng could also claim this money.

At this moment, people from the Forestry and Grassland Bureau and the Police Station were all watching the livestream.

Especially the employees within the Forestry and Grassland Bureau, they were quite astonished watching it.

"He really caught wild boars, more than twenty of them!"

"My gosh, the hunting team today with four people and three hunting dogs only killed three wild boars, and he caught more than twenty by himself!"

"Master Jiang is truly impressive!"

"How were these wild boars attracted over?"

Everyone was excitedly discussing.

Jiang Feng understood that being able to capture so many wild boars was greatly attributed to the formula of the pig feed.

The aroma of the pig feed wafted far, and with wild boars having a particularly keen sense of smell, they must have caught a whiff and ran over here.

This time, it seems all the wild boars around Maodeng Ranch were caught in one go!

Efficiency was key.

The Forestry and Grassland Bureau responded saying it was too late today, and they’d come early tomorrow morning to handle it.

Jiang Feng agreed as well.

The cage was sturdy, and the wild boars absolutely couldn’t escape.

Waiting for one night was not a problem.

The livestream’s comments exploded.

[Master Jiang, well done! You even managed to catch these!]

[Wild boar disaster? What’s that in front of the Grassland King?]

[Today, let the wild boars know who’s the boss of this grassland!]

[So amazing, catching so many, very strong!]

[This is even better than hunting wild boars with a gun!]

There were a lot of viewers in the livestream today, so many people watched.

Jiang Feng lived up to everyone’s expectations, successfully capturing wild boars, drawing waves of exclamations from the audience.

Jiang Feng looked towards the trap’s direction for a while, then said:

"Caught so many today; indeed, there are more wild boars than I imagined."

"I thought catching five or six would have been good."

"Didn’t think it would be more than twenty."

"The iron bars are stable, let the people from the Forestry and Grassland Bureau handle it tomorrow."

"I can’t deal with so many wild boars."

After speaking, Jiang Feng called Hadan and Bugude to head back to the ranch first.

Tomorrow morning at half-past six, after breakfast, drive back here to keep an eye on things.

Hadan and Bugude were very excited, running to the trap and taking a few photos of the wild boars inside the cage.

The wild boars were temporarily trapped in the iron cage.

That night, Jiang Feng became a hot topic.

#RancherCatchesTwentyWildBoars#

#PigCatchingGenius#

These two hashtags quickly gained millions of views.

People clicked on the video and were left speechless watching Jiang Feng catch wild boars.

The most pitiful was the hunting team.

Someone mentioned that the hunting team caught only three boars after a day in the forest, while Jiang Feng caught more than twenty alone. The difference was staggering.

Of course, Jiang Feng used traps, while the hunting team could only use guns and dogs—they’re not the same at all.

The internet was very noisy that night.

"The ranch owner is incredibly skilled!"

"To think he could find such a big trap!"

"How did the wild boars stupidly run into it?"

"It seems that he used special pig feed before to attract wild boars, that feed must have some secret technique!"

The situation of the wild boars garnered unprecedented attention.

That night, Jiang Feng chatted briefly with his girlfriend before going to bed early.

After all, setting traps during the day was exhausting.

The next morning, after Jiang Feng had breakfast, the forestry department people came over early.

Generally, eliminating wild boars entails trading dead ones for subsidies, but Jiang Feng catching over twenty alive made it quite troublesome.

But the attention was too large, so the forestry department had to handle it carefully.

In the end, they devised a method, inviting special police to shoot all the wild boars on-site.

It’s not uncommon to shoot wild boars; often, when wild boars invade restricted areas, special police are called in to shoot them.

Jiang Feng didn’t live stream the shooting scene, he just watched from a distance.

This way, he could avoid some online controversies.

Trucks and SUVs drove towards the deeper parts of the ranch.

The special police used firearms to put down all the wild boars.

Humans are also part of nature; wild boar infestations that damage ecology are inevitable.

When Jiang Feng started live streaming, forestry department staff began moving the wild boar carcasses out.

The online environment in Huaxia is very strict, and many things can provoke criticism.

For this reason, Jiang Feng live-streamed from a long distance, only roughly visible beside the trap.

Netizens saw people dealing with wild boar inside the trap.

"The forestry department has arrived, and all the wild boars will be handled."

"Now, because of the wild boar infestation, for the ecology of the grasslands and the people’s interests, a set number of wild boars will be dealt with."

Jiang Feng told the audience.

At this time, the live stream had many viewers, including many from government departments.

Many areas have wild boar disasters, and Jiang Feng’s traps are scientific and reasonable, without damaging the ecology.

Several forestry bureaus plan to imitate this by setting traps in wild boar-affected areas to capture the animals.

It’s much more effective than the hunting teams going in to hunt.

Jiang Feng’s live stream also offered some new ideas for regions troubled by wild boar disasters.

The forestry department took away the wild boars, with a government subsidy of 2,000 per boar, totaling 50,000.

Government departments didn’t care about the 50,000 subsidy, the transaction with Jiang Feng was completed quickly.

With this move, the cost of the trap was recovered, and he even made a profit of one or two thousand.

"Ranch Manager, are we catching more wild boars today? This makes money so fast!"

Hadan asked with an excited face.

Hearing this, Jiang Feng nodded, "But we’re not making pig feed today, since it attracts too many wild boars, just spreading some corn is enough."

"I set up an automatic capture system, the infrared camera will lower the cage when it detects more than three."

The pig feed Jiang Feng made was a recipe drawn from a system lottery, extremely attractive to pigs.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have caught so many this time.

With the pig feed canceled and replaced with corn, not as many wild boars would be attracted.

Hadan felt it was a pity, "Catch twenty more!"

"Can I come over at night to keep watch? I feel this is more fun than fishing!"

"It’s just like catching pigs!"

Hearing his words, Jiang Feng thought it over, it seemed quite true.

It’s the same principle as using bait to fish.

And even more exciting, no wonder Hadan was so enthusiastic.

Jiang Feng directly agreed:

"Alright, here’s the remote control, you and Bugude can come over tonight."

"Once the wild boars are trapped, come back, don’t cause me any trouble."

Hadan readily promised, "Don’t worry, it’s just to press the button and enjoy the thrill."

That day, Jiang Feng made another pot of pig feed, and at night, Hadan and Bugude followed the same procedure, heading to the inner parts of the grassland to catch wild boars.

Jiang Feng was not reassured about the two, so he let the cook, Old Sun, accompany them.

Old Sun was much more reliable.

The next morning, Old Sun informed Jiang Feng that twelve more wild boars entered the cage in the middle of the night, all caught by Hadan.

The trap really paid off, making a huge profit!

So, Jiang Feng contacted the forestry department again to deal with the wild boars, earning another twenty thousand.

After everything was settled, Jiang Feng told Hadan:

"This time the alliance has a quota of 300 wild boars for culling, we’ve already eliminated 37."

"There’re still the hunting teams and other hunters to handle this, let’s stay out of it now."

"Otherwise, we could draw resentment."

"Besides, I feel it’s not quite ethical, I don’t really like hunting."

Though Hadan wanted to continue catching, he still followed Jiang Feng’s instructions.

However, Jiang Feng’s method opened up a route.

In the areas of Sichuan and Shanxi where wild boars are rampant, large iron cage traps were set up everywhere.

Because of this, Jiang Feng was awarded a new honorary title:

Pig Catching King.

After this title went viral online, Jiang Feng had a confused reaction. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

Pig Catching King?

Listen, is this really a title for a person?

It’s utterly absurd!
