Chapter 621
After unloading the horses from the cart shafts, the family talked and thought about moving the three sacks containing gold on the horse-drawn cart into the room.
Initially, in order to facilitate placing the gold on the horses' backs, the group had packed all the gold into two sacks, but for the sake of safety, primarily to avoid being seen, each sack was covered with two more layers of sacks.
In this way, the two outermost sacks were tied together and placed on the horses' backs just right; even without being tied with ropes, they wouldn't easily fall off.
However, only Wang An's gold was packed into three sacks.
Because Wang An not only had 6 more gold nuggets but also 1 gold egg embedded with a bullet.
And because the number of gold eggs wasn't enough to divide, Wang An also held all the gold powder, as well as the scattered gold he had touched from the pockets of the dead people like Ma Zhengshan.
And it was because of this that on the backs of others' horses were 155 jin of gold eggs and nearly 30 jin of gold rice.
While on the back of Wang An's horse, there were 6 gold nuggets of different sizes, 150 jin of gold eggs, 30-plus jin of gold rice, about 6 jin of scattered gold, and about 12 jin of gold powder.
Of course, the reason Wang An's gold eggs were one less was that Wang An had supplemented Wang Li with one of his own gold eggs, making Wang Li's gold weight the same as everyone else's, while Wang An himself only kept all the gold powder.
After all, after the gold powder is smelted, it is basically 2 gold eggs, and the weight is about the same.
It is worth mentioning that the 6-plus jin of scattered gold belonged to the 10 people on this trip. Although the group didn't want it, Wang An didn't intend to swallow it all by himself. After all, if each person divided 6 liang, they could sell it for at least 2,400 yuan.
Besides these, there was the bear gallbladder. Although it was a gold gallbladder, the group didn't even mention it. Of course, Wang An didn't mention it either. Primarily, compared to the value of gold, the value of this gold gallbladder was truly not worth mentioning.
Besides these, there were guns.
Three or five guns might not matter to anyone, but when the quantity is large, you can't help but care.
Therefore, of the 4 Type 56 assault rifles and 11 Type 56 semi-automatic rifles harvested initially, Wu Dong, Zhang Shuya, and the other six divided the 11 Type 56 semi-automatic rifles, while Wang An and the 4 hunters each had a Type 56 assault rifle.
Although there would be some price differences, the group was not the type to haggle over every ounce.
Besides, Wu Dong and Zhang Shuya would definitely sell the Type 56 semi-automatic rifles, while Wang An and the 4 hunters would inevitably keep the Type 56 assault rifles.
You have to know that although the Type 56 assault rifle had already started to be phased out, it hadn't circulated in large quantities in the market. Primarily, the lethality of this thing was too powerful, and the control was relatively strict.
Simply put, except for that bit of scattered gold, all the group's harvest had been calculated and divided before separating, and this trip into the mountains to pan for gold could be considered to have completely become history.
Initially, in order to keep the gold on the horses' backs balanced, Wang An's three sacks were such that the weight of the first two sacks added together was basically the same as the weight of the third sack.
The first sack contained gold nuggets, scattered gold, and gold powder, totaling a little over 40 jin.
The second sack contained gold rice and 8 gold eggs, totaling a little over 70 jin.
The third sack contained 22 gold eggs, about 110 jin.
Wang An casually picked up the second sack and walked directly into the room, and Liu Guilan, seeing this, didn't take it seriously and grabbed the third sack, thinking of taking the sack down.
It was just that this lift was not a small matter. Liu Guilan, who had no psychological preparation at all, was directly pulled down by the sack. Fortunately, Liu Guilan let go in time and held onto the carriage cover with her other hand, which barely prevented her from falling to the ground. However, even so, it almost sprained Liu Guilan's elbow and shoulder.
Liu Guilan subconsciously shouted:
"Oh my mother, what is this? Why is it so..."
But before she could finish speaking, Liu Guilan suddenly closed her mouth.
Because Liu Guilan immediately realized what was in the sack. Looking at Wang An who had already entered the room, Liu Guilan's face instantly became full of surprise and excitement.
Mu Xueqing saw this scene and immediately wanted to step forward to help, while saying:
"Mother, are you okay?"
At the same time, Wang Yi, who was standing on the side, also reacted immediately, saying the same words and doing the same action.
It was just that Liu Guilan didn't dare to let the pregnant Mu Xueqing lift such a heavy thing. While blocking, she said: "What could happen to me? I'm fine. Xueqing, don't move your hands. This thing is truly not light; don't strain yourself."
After finishing speaking to Mu Xueqing, Liu Guilan turned her head and pointed to the last sack on the cart and said to Wang Yi: "Xiao Yi, look at that one, see if you can move it. If you can't, don't force it. Let your father take it in a while. You're young, don't sprain your waist..."
Immediately after, Liu Guilan shouted urgently to Wang Dazhu, who had just come out of the horse shed: "Master of the house, come over quickly, hurry up."
Although Wang Dazhu didn't know what Liu Guilan wanted to do, from Liu Guilan's urgent tone, Wang Dazhu immediately heard something unusual.
After all, the two had been together for more than 20 years, and the last time Liu Guilan called Wang Dazhu like this was two nights ago.
At that time, it was already the middle of the night, and everyone in the family was asleep.
Wang Dazhu, who was sleeping in a daze, suddenly heard Liu Guilan's voice in his ear. At that time, Liu Guilan said the same sentence. Although the voice was very small, it was full of urgency and temptation... Then, the old couple did some indescribable things. I have to say, that night, Wang Dazhu was exhausted... Wang Dazhu came over, and only then did Liu Guilan say urgently: "Help me lift it together. This sack doesn't look like it's holding anything, but it's dead heavy."
Wang Dazhu nodded, but asked suspiciously: "What's inside this?"
Liu Guilan heard this but lowered her voice and said: "Don't make noise, we'll talk when we get inside."
As they spoke, the two lifted the sack together. When lifting it, Wang Dazhu was instantly stunned.
Primarily because this sack was just like what Liu Guilan said; it didn't look like it was holding anything, but it was truly not just ordinarily heavy.
When the couple was about to enter the room carrying the sack, Wang Yi also carried the only remaining sack on his back.
I have to say, from the time Wang An was reborn until now, Wang Yi's physical changes were the most obvious. Half a year ago, he was as thin as a sorghum stalk, but now he is a very strong young man.
Soon, all the things on the horse-drawn cart were packed into the room. When Liu Guilan opened the sack, she let out a cry of surprise:
"Oh my mother, why is there so much!"
