After Wang An finished speaking, Wang Li hurriedly waved his hand:

"No, no, Fourth Brother, you definitely can't divide it like this. I didn't do anything this trip, the work was all done by you alone. How can I take so much?"

Clearly, Wang Li also felt that taking half was an excessive thing, but what he didn't know was that the big part of the money was already in Wang An's hands.

Of course, even if he knew, Wang An wouldn't care, because Wang An's way of doing things has always been "having a clear conscience."

After Wang Li finished speaking, Wang An laughed:

"Stop tearing it apart. It's just this one time. In the future, if there's such a profitable business, we definitely can't keep splitting it like this. If we keep doing this, wouldn't I lose a lot? Hahaha."

"Banpipi" is a local dialect, meaning half each.

As he spoke, Wang An picked up a handful of money, organized it, and started counting. Seeing Wang Li didn't move after counting a few, Wang An said unhappily:

"Count the money quickly, what are you doing?"

Wang Li ignored Wang An's reprimand and instead said solemnly:

"Fourth Brother, you said if you didn't take me, wouldn't you be much richer than you are now?"

Wang An was stunned upon hearing this, then laughed:

"What? Feeling guilty inside?"

Wang Li continued solemnly:

"Yeah, definitely. I've been following behind your butt every day, and this time after time is like picking up money. I never expected that I'm only 17 this year and have become a rich man in a daze."

Wang An laughed, patted Wang Li heavily on the shoulder, and said:

"You're not old, but you think a lot. Let me tell you, Old Five, getting rich doesn't depend on whose luck it is. Just like when we lifted the ginseng, if you hadn't seen that old sign, how could we have lifted so many ginsengs?"

After a pause, seeing Wang Li lowering his head and not making a sound, Wang An said again:

"Alright, stop doing that. Thinking about useless things every day, how much money do you earn? And you're a rich man? Count the money quickly, don't make me beat you."

Although Wang Li indeed only earned money after hanging out with Wang An, one really couldn't deny Wang Li's contribution. Of course, Mu Xueli was the same.

To put it bluntly, the three of them going into the mountains together relied on "harmony and heart, horse and saddle."

Because as the old saying goes, "A single tree cannot make a forest," or "A fence needs three stakes, a hero needs three helpers." Even if Wang An had great abilities, he must have helpers for many things.

You have to know that for the job of hunting in the mountains, if you want to both earn money and be safe, you must rely on multi-person cooperation, so it is appropriate for Wang Li and Mu Xueli to become so-called "rich people."

Once Wang Li heard Wang An say this, he immediately smiled and said while taking money from the coffee table:

"Hehehe, I was a bit pretentious, huh?"

Wang An smiled, didn't bother with Wang Li anymore, and focused on counting the money.

Soon, the two counted the money. 100 "Great Unity" notes made a bundle, a total of 8 bundles and 21 notes, plus more than 10 yuan in scattered change, which was 8,220 yuan.

Wang An picked up 4 bundles of "Great Unity" and put them in front of Wang Li, counted out 10 more and put them on top, then said:

"Alright, the money is divided. See how many coupons there are? You take some too, I don't have much use for so many."

After Wang An finished speaking, he started to classify the various coupons mixed together.

It has to be said, these traffickers were quite good at living.

You have to know that many things can be bought without coupons now, just at a higher price, yet these traffickers actually got so many coupons.

Wang An highly suspected that the reason the first six traffickers were so rich was likely because when they weren't trafficking girls, they were coupon traffickers dealing in various coupons.

After Wang An finished speaking, Wang Li immediately refused:

"Don't give me the coupons, I don't usually use them. Besides, Fourth Brother, I feel I've already got enough money from you."

At this time, besides grain, oil, and meat coupons being valuable, perhaps only coupons for various household appliances and bicycle coupons, etc., were valuable.

Things like cloth coupons, match coupons, salt coupons, and non-staple food coupons were basically in name only, because these things could be bought with or without coupons, and the price difference between having and not having coupons was basically not big.

So Wang Li said he didn't want them, and Wang An didn't care much. After thinking for a while, Wang An said:

"How about you take two of those guns? If you want to sell them, sell them; if you don't want to sell them, just keep them at home."

Wang Li's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he said:

"Forget the double-barreled shotguns, their power is quite big, but I'm used to using the Type 56 semi-automatic, and I feel that thing is not as easy to use as the Type 56 semi-automatic."

Immediately after, Wang Li said with a cheap smile:

"Fourth Brother, how about you give me one of those Type 54s? This box cannon is too big and heavy, every time I carry it, I feel very uncomfortable."

Wang An, upon hearing this, took out the three Type 54s without hesitation, picked the one that looked the newest, and handed it to Wang Li, saying:

"Why not? Long guns can still be sold, but pistols are not easy to sell, so no matter how many you have, they're just sitting there."

At this time in the forest area, although there was basically no management of guns, supply and marketing cooperatives could trade them, but this mainly referred to long guns, i.e., rifles and shotguns.

But the attitude toward pistols was different. Although there was no management of private pistols, supply and marketing cooperatives neither allowed sales nor recycling. If you wanted to trade, you could only do it secretly.

However, Wang An felt that selling pistols secretly was not worth it. The main thing was that if a major event happened because of the sold guns and it was investigated, Wang An would very likely be implicated.

Simply put, with Wang An's current status, it wasn't worth taking such a risk for that little money.

Wang Li took the gun with a smile and fiddled with it happily, muttering:

"This Type 54 is still good, really exciting, hehehehe..."

Wang An, seeing Wang Li's cheap look, laughed unhappily:

"Look at your useless look."

As he spoke, Wang An picked out 4 packs of Type 54 bullets from the captured ammunition and handed them over, saying:

"Pistols are generally not used, you use these few packs of bullets first, and if you don't have any, ask me for more."

It has to be said, these traffickers might have brought quite a lot of bullets because they had to travel in deep mountains and old forests, but Wang An's house also had plenty of bullets, so he didn't care how many were captured.

Wang Li took the bullets and put them in his pocket, then suddenly asked Wang An:

"Fourth Brother, when are we going to Shiqiaobao to find that old cow?"

Wang An was stunned upon hearing this, and immediately thought of the old cow that Wang Li said might have bezoar when they were harvesting autumn grain a few days ago.

For such a precious thing as bezoar, it's better to believe it exists.

Thanks to "Big Empire Emperor" for the tip, thank you, thank you!

Wish you, Big Brother, everything goes smoothly and a long rainbow!
