Chapter 89: Simply Perfect

Wang An saw his mother had a smile, turned and came to the west room.

Started to mess with these nine pieces of junk, dismantled all five radios, and Wang An checked them one by one.

Found that the problems with these radios weren't big, all were shaken or hard-fallen during transportation. Two of them even just had the wires connecting the batteries unsoldered at the welding point. Directly using a screwdriver to gently drill a hole, tear the wire and put it in, and just twist it, and it was done!

The problems with the other three weren't big either. Two had resistors fallen off due to falling. Without a soldering iron, solder wire, and rosin oil, one of them was simply connected after melting the lead on the bullets of the hanging tube gun.

Another resistor fell off completely and must use a soldering iron, so it couldn't be fixed, so it was directly put aside for later.

The last one actually wasn't broken, just two small screws on the circuit board fell off, and one was loose. Just tighten them all!

Seeing four of these five radios fixed, he couldn't help but sigh that in this era, for these problems, any junior high school student who knew a little bit about circuits could fix them, but they were treated as junk!

The most important thing was because the saleswomen all earned fixed wages, and it wasn't their own things. If it was broken, it was classified as damaged, and no one cared!

But if there was one who cared, found someone to fix it, and sold it as new, basically there would be no problem.

Actually, the quality of things in this era was very good, but in the countryside, people didn't understand, and there were few people who knew how to use them, let alone repair them!

When Wang An installed the batteries and the radio made a buzzing sound, he tuned to a few bands, and the melodious sound of "The East is Red, the sun rises, China has a..." rang out.

This radio rang, giving the family in the outer room a fright, and they ran over one after another, all surprised!

Everyone knew about radios, but this thing in the countryside at this time was absolutely a high-end thing!

Everyone was curious about this wooden box that could sing. Wang An naturally explained in detail how to use it, letting the family know how to operate it!

There was one large knob on top, and four small knobs, and a power switch. The large one was for adjusting the volume, and the two small ones on the left were for adjusting the bands. The two small ones on the right were fake and couldn't move, the original intention of the design might be for aesthetics!

After teaching the family, Wang An started to mess with the wall clocks. After carefully comparing them after dismantling, they were missing parts.

After spending some effort, four were combined into two. After winding the springs, they were simply perfect!

Just right, one in the east room and one in the west room!

Looking at the watch, it was almost four o'clock. He called his brother-in-law, who was listening to the radio intently, over.

Said: "Xueli, that golden gall sold for 3000, the watch 200, and then divide 1300 for you, right?"

Mu Xueli thought for a while and said: "Brother-in-law, if you don't take the lead share, it's also you taking 4 shares for people, dogs, guns, and horses, and I take 2 shares for people and guns. It should be 1000 for me, and then subtract 200 for the watch, and finally 800 for me, that's right."

His brother-in-law saying this made Wang An very gratified, because the account must be settled clearly! Don't be vague because of family affection; that is the beginning of trouble!

But rules are rules, and it depends on the person. Besides, his brother-in-law was truly attentive in his work, obedient and not lazy!

Wang An smiled and said: "Let's not follow the rules between us. Let's divide it half and half, it's easy to calculate!"

Both were people who wanted face, so Mu Xueli definitely wouldn't do it! His expression was very serious and solemn:

"Brother-in-law, you can't take care of me like this, otherwise I don't want to go with you anymore. Besides, this gun is still borrowed from you! If it's done like this, what's the difference from taking advantage of you for nothing?"

Wang An really didn't expect that his brother-in-law, whose brain short-circuited when it short-circuited, saw things so clearly and thoroughly in matters, and calculated so clearly in money!

The whole person was also so self-respecting and wanted face! To be honest, his brother-in-law was actually quite stubborn!

Scratching his head, he looked at Mu Xueqing. Mu Xueqing was also very conflicted, so she didn't say a word!

One was her own man, one was her own brother. What could she say? What idea could she give?

Wang An thought for a while and said: "Then let's do this. This watch and this gun will be a gift from your sister to you. Don't mention borrowing or not borrowing in the future. Then the big green horse outside is also yours. Finally, divide 500 yuan for you, and the account for this golden gall will be cleared."

As he said this, Wang An counted out 50 large unity and placed them in front of his brother-in-law!

Mu Xueli calculated the account, isn't this still the same taste!

He knew that the gun was worth more than 600 in the supply and marketing cooperative, and the market price of that big green horse was about 400 yuan!

Doing it like this was equivalent to having more than 200 extra after dividing equally. Isn't this nonsense!

Mu Xueli didn't take the money, and Wang An didn't know what to say. At this time, Mu Xueqing spoke: "Xiao An, how much is that iron gall worth?"

Wang An didn't even think and directly said: "700-plus yuan, why?"

Mu Xueli said to the two: "That iron gall won't be divided for Xueli. In a while, give Xueli another radio to take away. Xueli, you take the money. The harvest of this trip into the mountains will be like this!"

Okay, Mu Xueqing made the final decision, and both Wang An and Mu Xueli felt there was no problem!

Wang Dazhu and his wife on the side also showed smiles. This daughter-in-law was not bad, and her brain was also good!

Mu Xueli finally showed a happy smile. This trip into the mountains took less than 3 days, and the harvest was truly not small.

Not counting the 500 yuan in cash, he also gained a horse, a gun, a watch, and a radio that could sing! In this era, what a huge wealth this was!

Wang An also told his brother-in-law about the batteries, directly took 12, enough for three times!

It was about to get dark, and Mu Xueli was anxious to go home. Wang Dazhu directly gave the sled he usually used to Mu Xueli!

This thing, Northeast men all knew how to make, and it was quite simple! But if you want it to be sturdy and durable, it takes some effort! But it was also a heart!

Wang An threw the 500 bullets for the Mosin-Nagant and the black bear's fur onto the sled! Four big bear paws, two for each family, and the black bear paws were the same!

The meat was also divided into two halves, and he took another box of malted milk, a box of canned food, a bundle of soda, and four or five jin of biscuits.

And he urged his brother-in-law to tell his mother-in-law to give Xue Ting more nutrition!

These things couldn't be sold. If they were sold, he wouldn't buy anything for them in the future! Hearing this, his brother-in-law showed a knowing smile.

Sending his brother-in-law away, Wang An calculated the account in his heart. The money from selling the two hanging tubes was basically spent in the supply and marketing cooperative. Besides the 200 yuan from that idiot's pocket, there should be 1500 yuan in his pocket.

Thinking for a moment, he gave 1000 to his mother and 500 to his wife! Both were given in front of them, without hiding or concealing, but both women were very satisfied! This made Wang An's mood quite good.

After all, his parents were the ones in charge of this family, but he couldn't treat himself and his wife badly. He had to make both women satisfied, and this family could be relatively harmonious!

To be honest, this balance was truly not easy to grasp, but his mother and his wife were both reasonable people!

This point still made Wang An quite worry-free, and also made Wang An feel quite satisfied! Harmony in the family leads to prosperity in everything!

Lying on the kang looking at the two deer skins, turning them over and over, he saw that it was a mountain range map.

However, he didn't see the treasure location at all, and there was no special mark. Looking at it, he felt something was missing to compare! Either it was missing a piece, or it was missing several pieces!

This thing, looking at it, felt like it wasn't worth much!

However, looking at this deer skin, the age was truly quite long, at least it could be considered an "old item"!

Put it away in the kang cabinet, and study it when there is a chance in the future! Looking at it now, the more he looked, the more he felt it was going to his head!

Get off the kang and wander around. Seeing the soda, although it tasted average, in this era, it was truly a good thing!

Open a bottle each, drink it, and the two younger sisters were happy again!

It had to be said that Wang An liked to see the enjoyable little expressions of the two little girls more and more, as if they were savoring the delicacies of the world!
