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

Chapter 817: Live and learn

Wang An looked at the stack of papers in his hand and suddenly felt a little surprised.

The main thing is that Wang An never expected that these old prescriptions, after going around in circles, would actually fall into his hands.

You know, for a while, Wang An was still thinking about collecting some precious prescriptions and planning to do something meaningful.

Now, a lot of prescriptions have come directly.

Is this what is meant by "after searching everywhere for something, it is easy to find it"?

Wang An took the prescription and said with a smile on his face:
"It doesn't matter whether I get rich or not, but I've always wanted to collect this stuff, hahaha. Very good, very good, seriously very good."

Wu Dong was stunned when he heard this, and asked subconsciously:

"Why do you collect these things if you don't want to get rich? You are not a doctor, how can you understand these things?"

Wang An flipped through the prescription in his hand and said with a smile:
"What do you mean, only doctors can collect prescriptions? Besides, if I don't understand, can I learn it?"

When Wu Dong heard this, he was startled at first, then he laughed and said:

"Hahaha. Okay, okay, you're a butcher who drives through the mountains every day, and you actually want to learn medicine to treat illnesses. Hahaha. You're really a bullshitter."

Wang An glared at Wu Dong, then said with a look of indignation:
"So what? Haven't you heard that you can never stop learning? You have to learn everything and try everything while you are alive. If you don't think of something new every day, how boring will life be?"

It’s true that Wang An’s bragging is quite serious and of high standard.

No matter what, this is really what happened!

But how could Wu Dong possibly believe it, so he said mercilessly:

"Hurry up and get rid of Lajiba. You may be able to fool the little girl with these words, but with your temper, you can kill a few wild animals with cubs and you will have everything you want."

Wang An suddenly realized that it was not appropriate to talk about ideals with someone like Wu Dong who was short-sighted and ignorant.

So Wang An stopped arguing with Wu Dong and changed the subject:
"By the way, Brother Wu, my brother-in-law, Xue Li, also wants to buy a walk-behind tractor. Can you give him a hand when he's done?"

When Wu Dong heard this, he immediately agreed:

"That's not a big deal, why don't you go buy it now? By the way, the spring ploughing season is over, why do you still need to buy that thing?"

Wang An said casually:

"Then if you have nothing to do, go now and buy something like this. It will be convenient for transporting things. Besides, it is better than a horse-drawn carriage for transporting crops before the autumn harvest."

As they talked, the two of them walked out of the house together.
After arriving at the yard, the two men got on Wu Dong's sidecar and drove all the way to the agricultural machinery company.

I have to say that using a sidecar as a means of transportation is really convenient, mainly because it is extremely fast.

A few minutes later, the two arrived at the agricultural machinery company.

With Wu Dong around, the station manager of the agricultural machinery company was very responsive and sold the hand tractor that someone had reserved directly to Wang An without even saying no.

We have to admit that no matter what time it is, having money is not as good as having power.

It was the same process as last time, except that after handing over Mu Xueli's walk-behind tractor, Wang An bought another 4 barrels of diesel for himself.

There is no other way. There are three diesel-powered vehicles in the house, and the workload of four-wheel vehicles, hand tractors and track vehicles has been quite heavy during this period, so the two barrels of oil we bought before have run out.

Wang An had just loaded the diesel into the car when Wu Dong looked at his watch and said to Wang An:

"Xiao An, I won't keep you for dinner. I have a meeting to attend. Let's get together next time you come to the county." It can be seen that Wu Dong has been very busy these days. He only squeezed out time to accompany Wang An to buy a car today.

But it was also obvious that Wu Dong was busy with Shang Tianbao's affairs.

Wang An was helpless in dealing with these matters, so he immediately nodded and agreed:

"Okay, Brother Wu, go do your thing. I should go back soon. There are still a bunch of people working at home."

Wu Dong nodded, then rode away in a hurry on his sidecar.

After Wu Dong left, Wang An did not delay. After thinking about it, he found that there was nothing else he should do, so he drove his hand tractor home.

When Wang An got home, two hours had passed.

At Wang An's house, not only Mu Xueli had been looking forward to it for a long time, but Mu Hua, Liu Ruxin and Mu Xueting, Wang An's father-in-law, mother-in-law and sister-in-law, were also at Wang An's house.

But it is understandable if you think about it. After all, in this era, bicycles are already very large items.

As for the walk-behind tractor, it is simply an invincible behemoth.

You have to know that a walk-behind tractor of this era is definitely more awesome than the luxury cars of later generations.

3 yuan, the salary of a formal employee for 6 and a half years without eating or drinking, what kind of number is this?
Therefore, people started talking about it. The key point was that Wang Li and Mu Xueli, who followed Wang An, had both bought walk-behind tractors.

From this, we can see how much money Wang An and his two companions earned.

I saw Mu Hua and his wife touching here and looking there, with happy smiles on their faces. It was obvious that they were very satisfied with this walk-behind tractor.

After taking a look, mother-in-law Liu Ruxin said with a happy face:
"My brother-in-law is really good at this. He can buy such a scarce item just by saying so. That's great, hahaha."

Wang An said modestly:
"What's the big deal? Now that the farming is over and there's a truck available at the agricultural machinery station, I can just drive it back."

Wang An did not mention a word about Wu Dong's contribution. The main reason was that there was no need to mention it, as it was all about human relationships and worldly wisdom.

After hearing Wang An's words, Mu Hua said with a smile:

"When the land was divided a few days ago, there were several families in our village who wanted to buy this walk-behind tractor. I heard them say that this thing was very rare and they had to queue up to reserve it."

After Mu Hua said this, anyone with a discerning eye would know that there was something going on.

Otherwise, in this era of seller's market, why is it that you get it immediately when you buy it, while others have to queue up to make a reservation?

Besides, some time ago, Wu Dong and Wang Shuai used Big Sister to deliver cement and steel bars. Who doesn't know this?

At this time, Liu Ruxin said:

"No matter what, my uncle is still the best."

Mu Hua also said immediately:
"Yeah, who said nothing works? You have to blame Xiao An for his nature, hahaha."

Everyone gathered around the hand tractor and discussed for a while before turning around and going back to work.
