Back in the 1980s, hiking in the mountains was also a way of life

Chapter 1158 I just couldn't hold back anymore

Upon hearing this, the eldest brother, Wang Yong, immediately became anxious and retorted:
"Hey Lingdao, my brother and I dried our corn together, and then we filled the bags together this morning. So mine passed the test, but my brother's didn't?"

The eldest brother, Wang Yong, and the third brother, Wang Gan, are biological brothers, but the eldest brother, Wang Yong, separated from the family and lived separately, while the eldest uncle, Wang Dashu, lived with the third brother, Wang Gan.

Although Wang Yong had separated from the family, he still worked with Wang Dashu's family, whether it was farming or the autumn harvest. After the harvest, the grain that was to be handed over was distributed according to the amount of farmland.

Therefore, the grain from both families was dried together, and the grain was also handed over together.

But this quality inspector was able to separate the grains drying together into two grades, so it's obvious that this quality inspector was deliberately causing trouble.

To everyone's surprise, after Wang Yong finished speaking, the quality inspector said without batting an eye:
"Take it or leave it. If you don't want to, take it back and move on to the next person."

After saying that, the quality inspector walked over to the next person's grain pile.

Wang An had finally reached his breaking point!
The main problem is that this guy really thinks Wang An is a pushover just because he hasn't shown his teeth yet.

Wang An strode up to the quality inspector, raised his large hand, and slapped the inspector hard across the face.

With a sharp "smack," Wang An shouted and cursed:
"Fuck you, you've really got some nerve. Who are you messing with? Fuck you."

While loudly cursing the quality inspector, Wang An continued to lash out with his fists and feet at the inspector.

With Wang An's speed and skill, beating an ordinary person would be a piece of cake.

So before the Wang brothers, the other quality inspectors, and the grain station staff responsible for recording could react, Wang An had already knocked the quality inspector to the ground.

As Wang An was loudly cursing the quality inspector and kicking and stomping him, the staff finally reacted, shouting "Stop!" and running over.

At this moment, Wang An and the quality inspector who was being beaten suddenly became the focus of attention at the entrance of the entire grain station.

Finally, a staff member ran up to Wang An, picked up a shovel used for shoveling grain, and was about to hit Wang An.

That's how it is when you fight in Northeast China: you side with whoever you're closest to.

When Wang Yong, Wang Gan, Wang Shun, and Wang Li noticed that the group of staff members were all running towards them, they grabbed winches, crowbars, and other tools and prepared to rush forward.

The winch mentioned here is actually a hardwood stick about the thickness of a wrist and more than a meter long; it can also be understood as a pickaxe handle.

However, the "winch" is used in conjunction with the "cone" and the "suspension gauge."

It's used to tighten the ropes when tying goods on a vehicle.

Ever since Wang An was hit with a stick that time, he has become much more cautious.

That means that during a fight, you should always be aware of your surroundings to prevent being ambushed.

So when Wang An saw that the staff member was about to hit him with the shovel, he immediately turned around, rushed forward, and used the move "Azure Dragon Probing Claw" to snatch the shovel from the young man's hand with a grab, a kick, and a knock.

Then Wang An swung his hand and slapped the other man on the head with the shovel.

It must be said that the quality of the shovels from that era was really good. The main reason was that the iron on the shovel face was very thick, unlike the shovels of later generations, whose shovel faces were as soft and flimsy as thin iron sheets.

With a loud "bang," the kid was stunned by Wang An's shovel. He looked completely dazed and paced back and forth a few times, like he was doing a folk dance, before collapsing to the ground like a noodle. To be honest, it was quite a funny scene.

The quality inspector was kicked so hard he couldn't stand up. If Wang An's foot wasn't mistaken, the quality inspector only had superficial injuries and should be fine, though he must be in a lot of pain.

The staff member who stepped forward was knocked down by Wang An's shovel, so the other staff members who were about to step forward immediately became obedient.

There's nothing I can do; we're just colleagues. It's absolutely impossible for me to risk my life for a colleague.

Seeing that the staff members were all standing there without moving, Wang Yong and the other three immediately stopped as well.

Because no matter what, these staff members are upright people, and there is absolutely no need to have a conflict with them.

After knocking down the quality inspector and then shoveling down another staff member, Wang An pointed the shovel at the group of staff members and said:
"Go, Shaleng'er, find your stationmaster for me. I'm going to get to the bottom of this today. Is it easy for old farmers to grow crops? Why should we deduct 8 units of water from this dry corn?"

Turning his head, Wang An kicked the quality inspector, who was still groaning, several more times, cursing under his breath:

"Fuck you, you big idiot."

At this point, Wang An completely ignored the staff.

Soon, an older staff member came out of the grain station and roared at Wang An:
"Stop right now, you little brat, you've really gone too far!"

Wang An kicked the quality inspector a few more times, then turned around and said, showing absolutely no respect for elders or children:

"So you're the stationmaster? Come on, let me see why this corn is being charged 8 waters. If you can't give me a straight answer, I'm going to the county. If the county can't solve it, I'm going straight to Bingcheng. I don't believe that you can bully us old farmers like this and no one can handle you."

Wang An's words instantly stirred up the emotions of the people waiting to pay their grain taxes.

This is especially true for those who have already paid their grain tax and are waiting for their relatives and friends to pay theirs.

Without exception, the grain that everyone handed in was deducted for water content to some extent, and many people, like Wang Gan, were deducted for water content that was really too much.

So, with Wang An taking the lead, those who had already handed over their grain began to riot.

"My wheat is so dry, why should I have 7 water deductions?"

"My corn is also very dry, why did they deduct 5 water points?"

"Exactly, it's all top-quality grain, why the hell are they deducting so much? You bunch of lazy bums!"

"You damn bastards don't farm, you just want to ruin us old farmers. You damn bastards are a bunch of beasts."

Although the crowd was very excited, all of them were shouting from within the crowd.

It's obvious that no one dares to offend these grain station staff; after all, as the old saying goes, "the people will not fight with the officials."

Besides, although these quality inspectors are quite incompetent, they are still within everyone's tolerance level, so nobody wants to be the one to stick their neck out.
