Chapter 374
Feng Chengmin stabbed the three horses to bleed them, while Wang An and the other two, after stripping the clothes off these corpses, still performed the same old operation.
Burn all the clothes, shoes, and hats.
It was also until this moment that Wang An saw who the person was who had nailed plates to the front of his leather shoes but wasn't blown to death by the cannon.
But he only knew roughly, because this person's head had been hit by two shots, but one of the bullets had entered from the back of the head.
This caused a piece of the person's entire face to be missing, so he couldn't see what he looked like.
Of course, this didn't matter; as long as he was dead, that was enough.
Just as Wang An was driving the sled to dump the corpses, Feng Chengmin, who was skinning and butchering the horses, suddenly said:
"Walking west from here for about 2.5 li, there's a quite deep big ditch there."
Wang An, Mu Xueli, and Wang Li looked at Feng Chengmin almost at the same time.
I have to say, Feng Chengmin is truly familiar with these mountains!
After Feng Chengmin noticed the eyes of the three, he smiled and was actually quite proud, with a face full of "you didn't expect this, did you" expression.
Then the three of them turned their faces away with tacit understanding and went back to what they were doing.
Regardless of anything, although the four of them worked together to kill people this time, no one would ever admit to having killed people before.
Anyway, no matter how you ask, they don't know and haven't killed anyone.
When Wang An returned with the sled, Feng Chengmin and the other two had already finished skinning the three horses and were butchering the meat.
Wang An immediately stepped forward to help, speeding up the butchering process.
Speaking of horse hide, actually, horse hide is like donkey hide, both are very valuable, and it is much more expensive than cowhide.
On one hand, this thing is a very good leather, and the hide on the front half of the horse and the hide on the back half are different.
The horse hide on the front half is thinner and looser, accounting for about three-quarters of the total area, and is used as ordinary leather; it can be used to make shoes and clothes.
But the hide on the back half is tighter and more awesome because it can be used to make waterproof leather shoes.
Especially the hide on both sides of the horse's butt, called "butt hide," is quite wear-resistant and can also be used for sharpening knives.
On the other hand, horse hide also has medicinal value, such as burning it into ash to treat psoriasis.
After the four of them finished butchering the meat, they didn't wait for the horse meat to freeze, but loaded the horse meat, horse hide, and horse offal onto the sled, and then drove the sled home.
As for the horse heads and horse hooves, they were still thrown into the bushes; the main reason was that there was no meat and they took up too much space, so there was nowhere to put them.
Galloping all the way without any delay, 2 hours later, the four of them returned to Wang An's home.
At this time, in the east room of Wang An's house, the whole room was filled with smoke, but the scene was quite solemn; except for the "hissing" sound made when smoking, not a single person spoke.
Obviously, everyone was worried about the safety of the four of them.
When they saw the four of them return safely, the whole room instantly burst into cheers and laughter.
However, everyone had a tacit understanding not to pursue the follow-up, and also directly ignored the horse meat and 56-semis the four brought back.
The result was good, and that was enough.
After a sumptuous lunch, everyone began the most important thing today, which was "dividing the spoils."
Calling it "dividing the spoils" is actually no problem, because although these things were all obtained through everyone's hard work, essentially, they can indeed be counted as "stolen goods."
Unfortunately, everyone, including Wang An, would definitely not think so, because everyone was a person without a diploma.
Is it stupid to discuss the issue of "stolen goods" or not with people who have no diploma?
In everyone's cognition, these things are treasures, treasures that belong only to everyone.
In order to divide these treasures, Wang Dazhu even ran to the small shop to borrow a scale. The first thing to be divided was the "treasures" from the tomb.
According to weight, Wang An divided all the gold and silver in the coffin into 16 shares, and Wang An and Wang Dazhu, father and son, each took 2 shares.
Of course, this was also the result of everyone's unanimous discussion.
When dividing the jade, Wang An was a bit troubled; after all, jade is actually priced according to material and craftsmanship.
Fortunately, people without diplomas have very simple and easy ways of thinking, so everyone unanimously agreed that jade should also be weighed on a scale.
The main thing is "not missing a weight"!
To be honest, when this distribution method was proposed, Wang An was dumbfounded.
He had only heard of raw jade being weighed on a scale; he had really never heard of things already carved into shape being weighed on a scale.
However, Wang An thought about it carefully and suddenly felt that this method was still quite damn reasonable.
No matter what kind of jade it is, it is essentially jade; if the weight is not off, then it's about the same.
This damn thing, there's nothing wrong with it!
So, continue to move the scale weights.
When dividing the porcelain, everyone just symbolically took a plate or two bowls.
Because when everyone was digging these things out, they knew that Wang An valued these porcelains very much; if it weren't for Wang An telling everyone to be careful, maybe these porcelains would really have less than one in ten left.
As for the big coins, everyone ignored them directly.
Because just when Wang An was about to divide them, he heard Feng Chengmin say to Wang An:
"What's the use of this thing? There's still half a basket in my house; if you want it, go to my house when you have time and take it all away..."
Liu Deyuan also said: "Yeah, there's half a bag in my house too; if you want it, I'll send it to you one day."
Actually, in this era, basically every family has big coins, and many families have quite a lot of them.
But this thing is indeed useless; sometimes children throw them as darts to play, and if they lose them, they don't even bother to look for them.
Sometimes walking in the settlement, picking up this thing is a normal situation.
It must be said that Wang An also knew that this thing was worthless and useless until Wang An was caught.
So Wang An didn't continue to struggle with these big coins, but moved the jar Ninth Brother left behind onto the kang.
After opening it and pouring everything inside onto the kang, when everyone saw the pile of things on the kang, their breathing all became rapid.
Especially the elders like Wang Dashu, when they saw the things on the kang, their eyes were glowing.
There were only two things poured out of the jar, and that was gold bars and silver dollars.
Not to mention gold bars, silver dollars are silver big oceans, commonly known as silver egg oceans.
The vast majority of these silver dollars were Yuan Datou, and there were a small number of silver dollars with the head of President Sun and Guangxu Yuanbao.
And it could also be seen that the things that made Wang Dashu and the others' eyes glow were not gold bars, but silver egg oceans.
People who have experienced the era before New China seem to have a special obsession and affection for silver dollars; any gold bars, jade, jewelry, as long as they are in front of silver dollars, they are all younger brothers.
Because before the founding of New China, on this land of China, only silver dollars were the most solid currency.
Any banknotes or whatever, they were all paper, and damn waste paper that was too hard even to wipe your ass with.
But what must be said is that although Wang Dashu and the others all had glowing eyes, not a single person took the initiative to step forward and pick one up to play with and watch.
Wang An didn't say a word and started dividing directly.
Really sorry, something delayed me; thank you for the support and love of my dear bosses, thank you! Bow!
