Chapter 1129

Wu Dong looked into Wang An's eyes, seemingly unable to open his mouth, so he just spread his five fingers and held out a palm.

Seeing Wu Dong's gesture, Wang An understood instantly, but his eyebrows couldn't help but twitch several times.

Because Wu Dong's gesture clearly meant 50,000 yuan.

A GAZ that came through channels, with a not-so-great exterior, might have cost less than 20,000 to bring in, but the selling price after they used it was damn well 50,000 yuan. This damn thing! It was too damn black!

No wonder three years later, a Santana was priced at over 200,000; it was probably all done by this bunch of things.

One had to know that in this era, the sum of 50,000 yuan was simply a damn astronomical figure, so even for Wang An, he was more or less hesitant.

The key was that a car was of no great use to Wang An.

But thinking that Mu Xueqing was about to give birth, and his own flesh and blood from two lifetimes was about to descend into this world, Wang An clicked his tongue hard and finally decided to buy it.

Mainly because the distance from Wang An's house to the county seat was over 30 li, and Mu Xueqing's due date was in winter. In this situation, whether it was a sidecar, a four-wheeled tractor, or a horse-drawn sled, it would take quite a long time to get there.

Going to the hospital was barely okay, as adults had strong cold resistance, but a newborn baby, no matter how thickly wrapped, would freeze through in the Northeast winter.

So even if it was just for the child, Wang An decided to buy the car; mainly because Wang An wasn't short of money.

Hesitating for a moment, Wang An continued to show off and said with a smile:

"Alright, 50,000 is 50,000, money is no problem. By the way, does the car have a heater?"

In this era, cars basically didn't have heaters or air conditioning. Not only were these two missing, but there was no power steering either; driving for a day could exhaust a person.

But precisely because of this, the drivers of this era had very strong arms.

Seeing Wang An hesitate, Wu Dong joked:

"I thought 50,000 yuan wasn't money to you, hahahaha... you're not that great either, hahaha."

After joking with Wang An, Wu Dong laughed happily.

Wang An said very honestly:

"That's what you say, I didn't earn 50,000 yuan working this year, one car is 50,000, so I definitely have to think about it."

Mainly because in Wang An's view, those windfalls couldn't be counted, because windfalls were called windfalls precisely because they weren't earned through labor.

Wu Dong stopped laughing and said:

"You don't say, the car really has a heater, it won't be cold when driving in winter."

Wang An nodded and said:

"Then when can I drive the car?"

It had to be said, having a car of his own in this era, Wang An still had some small expectations.

Wu Dong thought for a while and said:

"The day after tomorrow, I should be free the day after tomorrow afternoon, I'll handle this for you. By the way, prepare the money in advance, this thing doesn't allow credit, my face isn't that useful."

Wang An put the last bag of rice on the back seat and said:

"Oh, the money definitely won't be forgotten. By the way, Brother Wu, you guys don't want flour? This flour is also very good, everything made with it tastes good."

Following Wu Dong's request, Wang An and Wu Dong loaded 4 bags, which was 200 jin of rice, into Wu Dong's car. As for Zhang Shuya and Sun Nian's, Wang An planned to deliver them personally.

After Wang An finished speaking, Wu Dong shook his head:

"Forget about the flour, I can't tell the difference, I feel they're all the same."

Wang An retied the rope on the four-wheeled tractor and remembered to ask:

"Brother Wu, I've brought back the chainsaw I borrowed from you, can you exchange it for another one for me?"

Wu Dong was stunned and said with disbelief:

"What's wrong with this one? Is it broken?"

Wang An said:

"No, this one is quite good, I'm just afraid you guys are doing inventory, so I returned this one, can you exchange it for another one for me to use?"

Who knew Wu Dong would wave his hand:

"If it's not broken, why exchange it? Just use this one. If our unit needs it later, I'll find you. Inventory is fine, who knows when they might forget, and then they'll report it as damaged."

It had to be said, Wu Dong's strength was truly awesome; a chainsaw borrowed out, even something as big as inventory could be ignored.

Just as Wang An and the two were talking, a middle-aged man suddenly ran out from the compound and greeted Wu Dong:

"Minister Wu, the meeting is about to start."

Wu Dong turned back and agreed:

"Yeah, I know, I'm going back now."

Turning his head, Wu Dong said to Wang An:

"Don't forget the day after tomorrow afternoon, I won't keep you, I'm quite busy."

Wang An waved his hand and said:

"Yeah, you go be busy, I'm leaving now too."

Bidding farewell to Wu Dong, Wang An went to the Public Security Bureau again, but Sun Nian had gone on a mission, and Zhang Shuya, the big director, was still very busy. He didn't know why Sun Xianghuo could be so leisurely when he was director.

It had to be said, this was very likely because Zhang Shuya was too serious, doing many things personally; it would be strange if she wasn't busy.

So, after leaving a bag of rice and a bag of flour for Zhang Shuya and Sun Nian each, Wang An drove away directly.

Passing by the market, Wang An found someone selling mutton, so he bought two jin of mutton and 5 jin of lamb spine, and drove to Fang Xiue's house.

At this time, Fang Xiue wasn't at home, and today wasn't her day off, so after arriving at Fang Xiue's house, Wang An found the spare key hidden under a stone outside the gate, opened the gate, and drove the tractor directly into the courtyard.

Immediately after, Wang An found the house key under a brick in the warehouse, opened the door, and started to build a fire to cook and stew the bones.

These two places where the keys were kept were told to Wang An by Fang Xiue, so that if Fang Xiue hadn't finished work and Wang An came over, he could enter the house directly.

And the reason the keys were kept separately was because Fang Xiue said that even if the gate key was discovered, the thief still couldn't enter the house.

He remembered that when Fang Xiue said this, Wang An laughed for a long time; mainly because in the eyes of someone like Wang An, locks were actually just for show, purely things that prevent gentlemen but not villains.

Because without any exaggeration, as long as you give Wang An a piece of wire, picking a lock is simply not too simple.

Even without this skill, picking a lock is not a difficult task for anyone; with three hammer blows, a normal lock can be smashed to pieces.

Of course, this refers to visible locks; for hidden locks, tools are still needed.

Thanks to "Climbing Wall Swordsman" big brother for the tip, thank you, thank you!

Wish you, big brother, happiness every day, wealth every day, and good luck!
