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

Chapter 362 Copper Coins
Wang An took out a rope and wanted to tie a lifting buckle to the jar, so that two people could carry it away.

However, Wang An spent a long time twirling the rope but still couldn't tie the buckle.

So Wang An immediately shouted, "Who among you knows how to tie the buckle of the lifting jar?"

To be honest, most people don't know how to lift the cylinder.

Because the cylinder lifting buckle is different from the bucket lifting buckle. The bucket lifting buckle applies force in two directions, which most people can do, while the cylinder lifting buckle applies force in four directions.

Upon hearing this, Wang Dazhu immediately said unhappily:

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? I was wondering what you were doing with the rope?"

Wang An smiled awkwardly without saying anything, and stepped aside to make room.

At this time, the second uncle Wang Daliang suddenly said to Wang An:

"I told you, Xiao An, if you don't know how to do something, just ask your dad. That's right. Your dad has been very skillful since he was young."

Wang An said with a smile: "Really, Second Uncle? Then my father is quite evil."

Before Wang Daliang could reply, Wang Dazhu had already fastened the buckle of the lifting cylinder.

I only heard Wang Dazhu say to Wang An: "You are over 20 years old and can't do anything."

Wang An ignored his father's ridicule and said to Mu Xueli and Wang Li:
"Xue Li, Lao Wu, you two carry the jars, let's go back to the sled and have a meal first."

The two men agreed and stuffed a shovel bar into the rope.

A group of people talked and walked towards the sled.

It was already one o'clock in the afternoon when everyone returned to the sled.

In order to save time, everyone just made a fire to boil a pot of water, and then toasted the frozen hard steamed buns or pancakes.

Then I just ate some dry food and drank some water, and that was my lunch.

Even so, by the time everyone had their simple meal, it was already 1:30 in the afternoon.

Ninth Brother’s first secret has been found, and Wang An always feels that the second secret is basically the same.

So Wang An led everyone to drive the sled and headed directly to a place about 1800 meters southwest.

In this big mountain, the four directions of east, west, south and north are very easy to find because there are the sun and big trees as reference points.

But no matter whether it is southeast or southwest, northeast or northwest, if you take a wrong step, you will inevitably go completely astray.

Then you will go further and further off the track, and you will definitely not be able to get back on the right track for a while.

And Wang An led everyone to successfully escape.

Of course, Wang An did not discover this problem at first.

But when Wang An searched the area within a mile nearby and still couldn't find the tall grass that should have appeared, Wang An finally realized the problem.

At this time, Wang An was somewhat anxious.

Because of this season, the afternoon is relatively short and it gets dark around 5:30.

Even if we leave now, it will be almost dark when we get home.

But not only did I not find the location, but I also got the direction wrong. This is bullshit!
After searching for a while, Wang An looked at his watch and it was already 3 o'clock in the afternoon.

At this time, Wang An was a little anxious, because he had a strong premonition in his heart that someone who was also looking for the secret left by Ninth Brother might be on the way.

The key point is that it took too long to plant trees and prepare wood. Given Ninth Brother’s injuries, he might have been dead for many days.

Damn it!
After thinking it over again and again, Wang An finally decided that no matter whether he could find the place in the afternoon or not, he would just spend the night in the mountains.

When Wang An told everyone about this decision, no one objected, probably because everyone had already benefited from it.

Instead, everyone was ready to go, and no one cared whether they could go home at night.

Seeing this, Wang An continued searching.

In fact, Wang An also thought about returning to the starting point, that is, the forbidden area, and setting a direction to search again.

But it must be said that the distance of 1800 meters is really too big, and it is impossible to make no mistakes. Finally, around 4 p.m., Wang An found a patch of grass that was somewhat abnormal.

But what puzzled Wang An was that the area occupied by these grasses was really large.

Moreover, the terrain of the entire grassland is relatively much higher than where the grain cellar is located.

The most important thing is that there are trees in this place, but for some reason, the trees inside are not growing well and look half-dead.

Do whatever you want, just dig it.

So everyone started digging again.

But soon, everyone began to feel something was wrong because they dug up wood.

After clearing the soil, everyone found that at the bottom of the pit, there were several wooden planks lying in a mess.

When this result came out, everyone was stunned.

Then, Lin Dajiang said very uncertainly:
"Have we dug up someone's ancestral grave?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Dashu immediately jumped into the pit and started observing.

After a long time, Wang Dashu said to Lin Dajiang very confidently:
"Dajiang, you are right. This is the grave of a wealthy family from the past. This is the wood that has been burned."

Lin Dajiang did not answer, but exclaimed:
"Did we really dig up someone's ancestral grave?"

Wang Dashu rolled his eyes at Lin Dajiang and said unhappily:
"What are you complaining about? If Damazi Sun hadn't blown up that old woman's grave, how would he have had the money to spend?"

Lin Dajiang closed his mouth in disappointment, blinked his eyes and said nothing.

Maybe all Chinese people hate that damn old woman to the core.

If it weren't for her, none of the humiliating treaties would have been signed.

If it weren't for her, China wouldn't have been forced to regress decades.

Therefore, if anyone says something bad about that old woman, no one will refute her. Instead, they will join in and curse her.

But no matter what, for herself, her life was not lived in vain.

Wang Dashu continued, "This wood is burnt pine wood. It won't break if it's not one or two hundred years old. Now the tomb has collapsed, which means it must be at least one or two hundred years old. Just dig it up. It's okay."

After Wang Dashu finished speaking, he climbed out of the pit.

Wang An didn't say a word during the whole process, because he had no interest in digging up other people's ancestral graves.

But when it comes to grave digging, I am very interested.

I have to say, this thing is simply one of the ways to get rich overnight.

However, what made Wang An curious was how an ancient tomb appeared in this deep mountain forest?
You have to know that the entire Kaoshan Village and the surrounding villages originally had only a few households.

And these few families all fled here to escape the war.

So where did this wealthy family come from?

Before Wang An could think about it, everyone started to expand the pit again.

Immediately afterwards, all the small jars or cans were broken into pieces.

What was inside was mostly something that was useless to chicken feathers - copper coins.

This thing was not valuable even when Wang An was reborn. Ordinary copper coins were only three or five yuan each.

A very small number of copper coins could be worth thousands, but they were worthless because no one wanted them.

And in this era, this thing is truly worthless.

However, Wang An knew that after three or four years, this thing could be sold for money.

It seems to be 5 cents per pound, and all the junk collectors in the county will buy it.
