Chapter 819

Looking at the stack of papers in his hand, Wang An felt a sudden sense of small surprise.

Mainly because Wang An never expected that these old prescriptions would end up in his hands after all this trouble.

You have to know that a while ago, Wang An was still pondering about collecting some precious prescriptions, intending to do something meaningful.

Now, a whole bunch of prescriptions had come directly.

Does this count as "searching high and low, only to find it without any effort?"

Wang An held the prescriptions and said with a face full of smiles:

"Whether I get rich or not doesn't matter, but I've been thinking about collecting this stuff, hahaha... quite good, quite good, truly quite good."

Wu Dong was stunned upon hearing this and asked subconsciously:

"If not for getting rich, why are you collecting this stuff? You're not a physician, can you understand these things?"

Wang An said with a chuckle while flipping through the prescriptions in his hand:

"That's a funny way to put it. Do you have to be a physician to collect prescriptions? Besides, if I don't understand, can't I learn?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Dong was stunned first, then laughed loudly:

"Hahahaha... fine, fine, fine. You, a butcher who goes into the mountains every day, actually want to learn medicine to treat illnesses—hahahaha... you're truly damn good at bullshitting."

Upon hearing this, Wang An rolled his eyes at Wu Dong and said with a face full of indignation:

"So what? Haven't you heard of living and learning? When you're alive, you have to learn everything and try everything. If you don't ponder some new things every day, how boring is it to be alive?"

It must be said, Wang An's bragging was truly quite high-level.

Regardless, that's exactly how it is!

Yet how could Wu Dong believe him? So, Wu Dong said mercilessly:

"Cut the damn crap. That line might fool little girls, but with your personality, just killing a few pregnant mountain animals would be enough."

Wang An suddenly realized that it was really not suitable to chat about ideals with someone as short-sighted and ignorant as Wu Dong.

Therefore, Wang An didn't argue with Wu Dong anymore and changed the subject:

"By the way, Brother Wu, my brother-in-law, Xueli, also wants to buy a walking tractor. Could you help out with that too?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Dong agreed immediately:

"Isn't that a small matter? Shall we go buy it now? By the way, spring plowing is over, why buy that thing?"

Wang An said casually:

"If you're free, let's go now. It's fine to buy one; it's convenient for hauling things, and besides, it's better than a horse-drawn carriage for hauling crops before the autumn harvest."

As they spoke, the two of them walked out of the house together...

After arriving in the courtyard, the two of them got into Wu Dong's sidecar and drove all the way to the Agricultural Machinery Company.

It must be said, using a sidecar to get around is truly useful, mainly because this thing is very fast.

A few minutes later, the two of them arrived at the Agricultural Machinery Company.

With Wu Dong there, the station master of the Agricultural Machinery Company was extremely accommodating, not even saying a word of refusal, and sold the walking tractor that someone else had reserved directly to Wang An.

One has to admit, no matter what time it is, having money is not as good as having power.

It was the same process as last time, but after handing over Seeing Mu Xueli's walking tractor, Wang An bought 4 more barrels of diesel himself.

There was no other way; there were three diesel-drinking vehicles at home, and during this period, whether it was the four-wheeled vehicle, the walking tractor, or the crawler tractor, the workload was quite heavy, so the two barrels of oil bought previously were already bottoming out.

Just as Wang An finished lifting the diesel onto the vehicle, Wu Dong looked at his watch and said to Wang An:

"Xiao An, I won't keep you for a meal. I have a meeting to attend. Let's gather again next time you come to the county town." It was clear that Wu Dong had been very busy lately, and being able to accompany Wang An to buy the vehicle today was time squeezed out.

But it was also clear that Wu Dong was busy because of Shang Tianbao's matter.

Regarding these matters, Wang An was unable to help, so he nodded and agreed immediately:

"Mm, Brother Wu, you go ahead and be busy. I should be heading back too; there's still a bunch of people working at home."

Wu Dong nodded and rode off in the sidecar in a hurry.

After Wu Dong left, Wang An didn't delay either. After thinking about it, there was nothing else that needed to be done, so Wang An drove the walking tractor home.

When Wang An arrived home, two hours had already passed.

And at Wang An's home, not only had Seeing Mu Xueli been looking forward to it for a long time, but even Mu Hua and Liu Ruxin, the couple, as well as Mu Xueting—that is, Wang An's father-in-law, mother-in-law, and sister-in-law—were actually at Wang An's house too.

But thinking about it, it was understandable; after all, in this era, a bicycle was already an incredible big-ticket item.

As for a walking tractor, it was simply an invincible behemoth.

You have to know that such a walking tractor in this era was definitely a more awesome existence than a luxury car in later generations.

3,000 yuan—a regular employee's salary for 6 and a half years without eating or drinking. What kind of number is that?

Therefore, the crowd's discussion also rose one after another. The key was that Wang Li and Seeing Mu Xueli, who hung out with Wang An, had both bought walking tractors now.

From this, one can see how much money the three of them had earned.

Mu Hua and his wife were touching this and looking at that, their faces full of festive smiles, clearly quite satisfied with this walking tractor.

After looking it over, the mother-in-law Liu Ruxin said with a face full of joy:

"My son-in-law is truly capable; he can buy such a hot item just like that. Truly good, hehehehe..."

Wang An said with a face full of modesty:

"What's the big deal? Farming is over now, and it just so happened that the agricultural machinery station had stock, so I just drove it back."

Regarding Wu Dong's contribution, Wang An didn't mention a word; mainly because there was no need to mention it anyway, it was all just human relations.

Upon hearing Wang An's words, Mu Hua said with a chuckle:

"When the land was divided a few days ago, several families in our village wanted to buy this walking tractor. I heard them say that this thing is extremely rare and must be reserved in line."

Mu Hua said this, and anyone with eyes could guess that there was something going on here.

Otherwise, in this era of a seller's market, why would you have it immediately when you buy it, while others have to reserve it in line?

Besides, a while ago, Wu Dong and Wang Shuai used the eldest sister to release it, sending cement and steel bars. Who wouldn't know about this?

At this time, Liu Ruxin said:

"Regardless, my son-in-law is still the capable one."

Mu Hua also said immediately:

"Mm, indeed. No matter what anyone says, it's still Xiao An who is capable, hahaha."

Everyone discussed the walking tractor for a while longer, then turned and went to work.

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

Thanks to "Book Friend" for the tip, thank you, thank you!
