Chapter 647: Others Think the Same

~8 min read 1,405 words

In these big mountains, moss can be said to be seen everywhere. As long as it is a place that does not see the sun all year round and is dark and humid, there is basically this thing.

Wang An found a place where the moss was relatively thick, shoveled a large piece with a hunting knife, and after returning to the place where he dug the ginseng, he crushed the moss block and threw it into the ginseng pit, and it was done with a simple stir.

But Wang An had finished everything, and Wang Li hadn't returned yet.

After thinking about it, Wang An didn't take it seriously, so he leaned against a tree and lit a cigarette. Unfortunately, after a cigarette was finished, Wang Li still hadn't returned.

Only until now did Wang An suddenly feel something was wrong.

You have to know that it's just cutting some bark, does it take such a long time? Besides, in this woods, the least lacking thing might be trees. Is it necessary to run so far just to brush some bark? Thus, Wang An took the 56-semi off his back, intending to chase for a distance in the direction Wang Li left.

Fortunately, before Wang An took a step, Wang Li came back dragging a few pieces of bark. The reason it was called "dragging" was that the bark Wang Li brushed was a full person long.

Wang An looked at the bark in Wang Li's hand, and then looked at the two small ginseng roots that were only a palm long including root hairs, which he had just placed on the ground because he wanted to take the gun, and frowned and said subconsciously:

"For two small ginseng roots this big, why did you get so much bark? Why didn't you just pull a big tree back?"

Wang Li scratched his head when he heard this and said: "I don't know what size is suitable, so I brushed a little more."

Wang An sighed helplessly, really not knowing what to say.

Four pieces of bark over 1.5 meters long, two ginseng roots a palm long, how big a "ginseng bun" does this have to be?

The main thing is that Wang An was worried, thinking that Wang Li hadn't returned for such a long time because something had happened.

Wang An was about to take the bark when Wang Li suddenly said excitedly:

"Fourth Brother, do you know what I saw?"

Wang An was in a state of helplessness. Upon hearing this, he said nonchalantly: "What did you see? Did you see an old marker again?"

Wang Li said mysteriously: "I saw an old eagle, and I also saw that old eagle drill behind a tree stump."

Upon hearing the words "old eagle," Wang An was instantly shocked and hurriedly asked: "Where did you see it? Is that old eagle still there now?"

The reason Wang An was so urgent was that the "old eagle" in Wang Li's mouth was actually a golden eagle, but because among all eagles, only the golden eagle's name did not occupy the word "eagle."

Therefore, many locals call golden eagles "old eagles." Of course, there are also those who call them "big old leng."

You have to know that Wang An's purpose for entering the mountain this time was for the golden eagle, but after wandering around a big circle, he didn't even see the shadow of a golden eagle.

Originally, Wang An thought that the mountain trip today was a waste, but it really lived up to the old saying, "The east is not bright, the west is bright"!

Because unexpectedly, Wang Li accidentally discovered an old marker, thereby discovering this old ginseng patch, as well as the six-leaf big good.

As soon as Wang An finished speaking, Wang Li said with a smile:

"I haven't returned for such a long time because I wanted to see where the old eagle flew, otherwise I would have returned long ago."

It can be seen that Wang Li was selling well to Wang An, and at the same time wanted Wang An to feel guilty for what he said to Wang Li just now.

How could Wang An, such an old and cunning person, not see Wang Li's little trick?

So seeing that Wang Li not only answered the question he was anxious to know but was also showing off for himself, Wang An directly widened his eyes.

Immediately after, Wang An brushed Wang Li's head and said very dissatisfied: "Tell me what I ask you, don't do these useless things with me. Do you want me to shave you?"

Seeing Wang An getting angry, Wang Li didn't sell well anymore and immediately said:

"It's on the south side of that stone mountain, there is a large tree stump on the east side, a really big one." As soon as Wang Li said it, Wang An immediately supplemented that place in his mind.

Mainly because Wang An had also carefully observed the place Wang Li mentioned just now, but the distance was not low, and there was no golden eagle dung or animal hair underneath, so Wang An gave up.

Wang An nodded and began to wrap the ginseng with bark.

According to the method taught by Han Shuisheng, Wang An wrapped one of the ginseng roots.

After wrapping the ginseng, Wang An asked Wang Li:

"Do you see how to wrap the club? This thing is so simple."

Wang Li nodded and said:

"Yeah, I know. This thing is indeed simple, I'll know it at a glance."

Seeing that Wang Li didn't mean to do it after finishing speaking, Wang An said angrily: "What are you looking at? Wrap your ginseng root too. Are you waiting for me to wrap it for you? Really no eye power."

Upon hearing this, Wang Li began to wrap his ginseng dejectedly.

After Wang Li also finished wrapping the ginseng, Wang An said to Wang Li: "Let's go, don't look for the club for now, eat first, and after eating, go to that golden eagle nest to see."

After Wang An finished speaking, he took the lead and walked toward the place where the horses were tied, and Wang Li followed Wang An while looking at the ginseng bun in his hand, looking like he couldn't put it down.

In this season, the two-and-a-half-faced steamed buns brought into the mountain in the morning would not be frozen hard, so the two of them didn't make a fire, just gnawed on the steamed buns, and solved their lunch hastily with fried dried fish and salted vegetables.

When eating, Wang Li said with full hope:

"Fourth Brother, when do you think we can eat pure white flour steamed buns and rice every meal?"

It must be said that people are never satisfied. In the past, they ate corn flour pancakes every meal, and what they wanted was to eat two-and-a-half-faced steamed buns.

And now that they can eat two-and-a-half-faced steamed buns every meal, they want to eat fine grains every meal.

But everyone is the same, so no one will laugh at anyone. Wang An said while gnawing on the steamed bun:

"Then I advise you, don't plant corn this year, just plant wheat and rice, and wait until the end of the year to exchange these two for corn."

What Wang An said instantly stunned Wang Li, and then he asked subconsciously: "What if no one exchanges at the end of the year? What about the mules and horses at home? They can't be fed rice and wheat every meal, right?"

It must be admitted that Wang Li's words make sense, but likewise, his cognition is a bit shallow.

So Wang An didn't answer Wang Li's question, but asked back: "Old Five, if your warehouse is full of corn particles, will you still eat pancakes and corn flour porridge every meal?"

Wang Li answered directly without even thinking:

"That definitely won't happen. No matter what, I have to exchange for rice and white flour to eat."

After Wang Li finished speaking, Wang An said without raising his head:

"Yeah, others think the same."

Wang Li was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, and then he looked like he suddenly understood.

After eating, Wang An and Wang Li walked together toward the golden eagle nest.
