Siheyuan: If you have the butcher's knife in your hand, let's try again.

After parking the car at the factory, Director Liu came over to greet him.

"Lin Bai, have you had breakfast?"

"not yet!"

"You, go buy some steamed buns and a cup of soy milk for Lin Bai."

After giving instructions to his subordinates, Director Liu added: "The leader who came this time is no small matter."

"If you behave well, I can make requests in front of him to expand the scale of the factory."

When Lin Bai received this task, he was puzzled.

What’s not good to watch is the slaughter of pigs.

Dozens or hundreds of pigs are slaughtered every day in the factory. You come and watch from the sidelines. Why do we have to put on a special performance for you?

Pig killing is a physical and technical job, not a performance job.

If you want to see a performance, go to the circus.

Lin Bai expressed his thoughts, and Director Liu explained:

"You don't know something. The leader here today grew up in a rural area."

“I have been working with pigs since I was a child, feeding and herding pigs and even sleeping with pigs.”

"My favorite thing is to watch pigs being slaughtered. Whenever there is a pig slaughter in the village, he will come there. My dream is that one day I can kill it myself."

"I didn't have this opportunity when I was young. When I grew up, I went to work in the workplace. This wish has never been fulfilled."

"Now that I have become a big leader, it is even more impossible for me to kill pigs myself."

"He was very happy to come to our factory for inspection this time and asked to see the pig killing show."

"He said it himself, do I still have a reason to refuse?"

Lin Bai nodded and asked, "How do you know so much about leadership?"

Director Liu chuckled and said, "Find out the leader's temperament and adapt to his liking. This is the way to be an official."

"When you sit in my position in the future, you will understand."

"Director Liu, I have no intention of replacing you."

"It's not to replace me. I will have to leave sooner or later. If I leave, won't this position be vacant?"

"You are very capable and treat people well. The most important thing is that you have a quick brain... If you want to be an official, your brain is stronger than anything else."

The two of them walked and chatted. Lin Bai ate the steamed buns that were delivered to him and listened to Director Liu talk about many tips on being an official.

Before they knew it, the buns in their hands were finished and the two of them walked to the door of the pig killing room.

Factory Director Liu patted Lin Bai on the shoulder and said seriously: "Lin Bai, this time it's up to you!"

Lin Bai smiled and said, "Everything is under control."

"Okay, get ready. I have to pick up the leader. He will be here in a moment."

After Director Liu left, Lin Bai went into the pig killing room to prepare.

After entering, the apprentice was already busy working.

The pig-killing room was also clean, obviously it had been specially cleaned for the arrival of the leader.

"Hello, master!"

"Hello, master!"

"Morning Master!"

Walking through the middle road, the disciples greeted each other one by one, and Lin Bai nodded slightly in greeting.

Go to the closet and take out two large bags.

In one bag were aprons, gloves, rain boots, etc.

In another bag were various knives used to kill pigs.

Put on your wellies, put on your apron and put on your gloves.

Take out all the knives in the bag and arrange them in a row on a table.

Then he unscrewed the bottle and took three sips of wine, no more, no less, exactly three sips.

The first is to warm up the body and make the hands and feet slightly warm and more sensitive.

The second is to be brave and strengthen your heart.

The third is the state. A slightly tipsy state is more suitable for killing pigs.

Also, in order to go through a ceremony.

Whenever something important happened, Lin Bai would take three sips of wine.

With everything ready, Lin Bai sat quietly, waiting for the leader to arrive.

After waiting for 10 minutes, a burst of noise came. Director Liu led the way, and behind him a large group of people surrounded a fat woman.

This leader is fair and fat, and his body shape is similar to that of Jia Zhang.

But he looks kind and approachable, unlike Mr. Jia Zhang, who has a rough face.

Could it be that she is the leader?

This surprised Lin Bai.

It’s already puzzling to like watching pig killing performances. It’s okay for men, but women also like watching it?

Lin Bai was a little puzzled.

The group of people approached, and Lin Bai stood up.

Factory Director Liu introduced: "This is the most skilled slaughterer in our factory, Lin Bai."

"Lin Bai, this is Director Guo Meiguo."

"You are young and promising!" Director Guo took the initiative to extend his hand to shake Lin Bai's hand.

Lin Bai also reached out and held her chubby hand.

"Women are not inferior to men, and beauty is better than men. Director Guo has a good name."

Director Guo was stunned and said with a smile: "You can also recite poetry and you are good at literature and martial arts. No wonder Director Liu was praising you along the way."

When they met for the first time, Lin Bai's words won Director Guo's favor, and Director Liu beside him beamed with joy.

After a pause, Director Guo continued: "I saw a look of doubt on your face just now."

"You may be curious about why a girl like me has this hobby."

"Director Liu has told you my situation."

"I have been here for 25 years, and I have never had the chance to return to my hometown. It is really a pity."

“When I was a child, I often watched pigs being killed in the village.”

“I clearly remember the first time I saw a pig being slaughtered. It was the New Year pig slaughter, and the village was packed with people.”

"Although the conditions were difficult at the time, everyone lived very comfortably. Everyone was laughing and having fun."

"Especially when the knife penetrated the pig's neck, everyone cheered enthusiastically. From that moment on, I became obsessed with watching pig killing."

After listening to Director Guo's story, Lin Bai finally understood why she liked watching pigs being killed.

For her, killing pigs is a beautiful childhood memory and a deep nostalgia.

Some people like to eat stinky tofu from their hometown, others like the native dogs from their hometown, and Director Guo likes to watch pigs being killed. This is all nostalgia.

"Director Guo, I understand. I promise to kill you beautifully and take you back to your far away hometown."

Director Guo nodded vigorously, with tears shining in his eyes.

Lin Bai made a gesture of invitation, pointed at the pigs in the pigsty, and said: "Director Guo, pick one."

"I choose?"

"I'll kill whichever one you like."

Director Guo has seen pigs killed many times, but this is the first time he has seen such a special method.

She looked at the pigs running around in the pen and picked out a big, fat one.

Expert!

The little piggy was bored and died after snorting twice.

The big pig has a strong body and good physical strength, which makes it interesting to look at.

The apprentice took the pig out of the pigsty and prepared to tie its limbs with ropes.

"slow!"

Usually when pigs are killed, the limbs are tied and pressed against a board.

It's easy to kill, but it loses its ornamental value.

Since Director Guo wanted to see a performance-style pig killing, he wanted to do something different.

Without tying it up, and without the help of his apprentice, Lin Bai could kill it alone.

This not only increases the difficulty of killing pigs, but also makes it a performance.

Lin Bai asked his apprentice to drive the pigs into a separate pigsty, went in with a knife, and locked the door of the pigsty.

This was the first time Director Guo saw such a way of killing pigs. He was very excited and clapped his hands and praised it repeatedly.

Not only was it the first time for Director Guo to see him, but it was also the first time that Lin Bai killed a pig in this way.

It is still unknown whether a person can succeed when facing a fat pig weighing more than 200 kilograms.

A lot of risks were taken in order to make the killing of pigs more ornamental.

However, it is worth a try. If it succeeds, Director Guo will definitely be very happy, and Director Liu will be able to speak in front of her.

Not only are pigs not stupid, they are also quite smart.

When he saw Lin Bai walking towards him with a knife, he knew that he was going to kill him.

The pig felt uneasy, grunted, and ran around the pen.

Lin Bai did not chase him, but walked slowly step by step and followed him.

The pig thought Lin Bai was chasing it away, so it ran faster.

He even jumped up and tried to jump out of the pigsty.

This jump scared everyone present and screamed.

This pig has a strong desire to survive. There will be some good shows later.

Lin Bai followed it not to chase it, but to scare it and make it feel fear.

When it is afraid, it will become confused and it will be easier to attack.

Furthermore, the step by step is also to find the rhythm. Only when the rhythm is right, the success rate of killing with one blow is high.

Lin Bai always kills pigs with one knife, and doesn't like to stab them one after another.

The continuous stabbing method is too unskilled and disrespectful to the pigs.

If you want to kill it, you won't give it pleasure. It will be extremely painful to cut the flesh with a dull knife.

A pig butcher with such a lack of professionalism is not worthy of being called a butcher.

The pig was still running around in the pig pen and tried to jump out of the pig pen several times without success.

It made the onlookers feel itchy and wanted Lin Bai to kill the pig quickly.

What Lin Bai wanted was for the onlookers to be impatient.

"Lin Bai, if you don't take action yet, why are you dawdling!" Director Liu became anxious and began to urge.

"Young man, I can take a look!" Director Guo also urged.

Well, in that case, the time has come.

The pig grunted and ran, and Lin Bai rushed over in one stride.

Use all your strength to push it into the corner with your knees.

This big fat pig is not covered with water. It has a lot of strength after raising it for almost a year.

As soon as Lin Bai pushed it against the corner, it struggled with all its strength, trying to break free.

It struggled violently, and Lin Bai almost let go.

He quickly stretched out a hand and pressed the pig's head firmly.

The pig was frightened and pushed harder.
