Chapter 1720
These horses are not acceptable
When Wang An and his three companions arrived at the gold mine yesterday, the good stuff, mainly the valuable items, had already been mostly taken care of by the group of 12 people they killed.
So, at this point, many things were already placed inside the shack and at the entrance outside the shack.
It was clear that these people intended to transport these things away, but before they could do so, they were ambushed by Wang An and his group of four during some kind of ceremony.
To be honest, these people died in a truly pathetic way, both pathetic and resentful. It was as if their mothers had opened the door to their pathetic and resentful state. They were pathetic to the extreme, and resentful to the extreme!
After Wang An finished speaking, he stared at the statue for a long time before putting it away and walking over to the pile of things.
Wang An mainly discovered that this thing didn't look new; it should be a genuine old object that had been around for a long time, that is, an antique.
However, regardless of the circumstances, this thing couldn't have appeared unintentionally, because Wang An suspected it might be a sacred object of some religious sect; otherwise, why would a group of people be gathered around kowtowing to it?
Just as Wang An was pondering the origin of this thing, Wang Li opened a burlap sack and exclaimed in shock:
"Holy crap, how many herders did these guys rob? This whole sack is full of cornmeal buns."
Saying it's a sack is actually a bit of an exaggeration, because ginseng buns are made by wrapping tree bark and moss. If the ginseng is old and large, the ginseng buns will be quite thick and long. If such ginseng buns were put into a sack, there wouldn't be many in it.
Even so, Wang An and his three companions were still quite shocked.
A ginseng bun must contain at least one ginseng root. Only small ginseng roots, such as Erjiazi or Dengtaizi with their roots cut off, can be wrapped in a single ginseng bun with several roots inside.
These 20 or so ginseng buns of varying sizes indicate that there must have been at least 20 ginseng roots in the sack.
Although I don't know what grade of leaves they are, they should at least be of the 'Lampstand' grade or higher.
Wang Ligang was about to open one of the ginseng buns to check the quality of the ginseng when Wang An immediately stopped him:
"Why are you in such a hurry? Can't you wait until we get back to look at it?"
For some reason, Wang An felt that this place was not very safe and just wanted to grab his things as soon as possible and get away from here.
Wang Li chuckled and defended himself, saying:
"I noticed this 'clump-shaped' bun is the biggest here, so I was wondering if it has a sixth-grade leaf, hehehehe."
Wang An rolled his eyes at Wang Li and said:
"Regardless of the grade of the leaves, we'll wait until we get back to see them. We'll just take it one day at a time."
To be honest, Wang An also wanted to see if there were any sixth-grade leaves among all these ginseng buns.
You should know that those are 6-grade leaves; just one leaf can change a person's life and instantly turn a family into a millionaire.
However, as mentioned before, Wang An felt that this place was unsafe, so he forcibly suppressed his curiosity.
Just then, Mu Xueli pointed to a burlap sack and said:
"Holy crap, these are also 'stick buns' here! How many groups of people carrying sticks did these guys rob? These lazy bastards are truly disgusting!"
Soon, Huang Zhong found the main target of the four men's trip in a box: gold and gold dust. When the TS group robbed the gold mine, they didn't know how much gold there was, but now, this small box of gold nuggets and gold dust must weigh about 120 to 130 pounds.
The fact that so much gold could be found in such a small gold mine shows that it is definitely a rich mine with a very high gold content.
Of course, gold mines that can be panned using this most primitive method, namely the water washing method, are basically rich mines. In poor mines, this water washing method may not be able to pan gold at all.
Besides ginseng and gold, the group also found a small bag of diamonds in the box.
Besides ginseng, gold, and diamonds, the most valuable items are various watches, necklaces, rings, and other jewelry.
It's really hard to imagine how many people TS came from to accumulate so much stuff.
However, all the hard work these people put into accumulating wealth, and the fact that they even lost their lives for it, has now all benefited Wang An and his three companions.
After loading all these things onto the horse, Wang An looked at the corpses scattered on the ground and suddenly said:
"I think these guys all have some good stuff in their pockets. Quick, let's empty all their pockets and then we'll go back."
After Wang An finished speaking, Wang Li looked at the horses in the distance and said:
"Fourth Brother, what should we do with those horses? If we bring them all down the mountain, I reckon we could sell them for at least five or six thousand."
These horses are of different colors, but each one looks plump and healthy, and it is clear that the owners take great care of them.
If such a fine horse were to be sold, it would be very easy to do so.
Wang An looked at the herd of horses with a regretful expression, shook his head, and said:
“These horses are no good. Look at the marks on their hind thighs, they have branding marks. They must be from some horse farm. If we bring them down the mountain and someone sees them, we’ll be in deep trouble.”
To be honest, Wang An also took a liking to this group of horses. Although these horses were not as tall and powerful as Wang An's eldest son's horses, they were really good compared to local horses. They were definitely a new breed that had been specially bred.
However, just as Wang An said, these horses were all marked and could not be easily allowed to enter the market. If the owner of the horse farm was very powerful and traced it back to Wang An and his companions, Wang An felt that even with the protection of Wu Dong and Zhang Shuya, the four of them would still be in great danger.
After Wang An finished speaking, Mu Xueli also said with a regretful expression:
“Any one of these horses is better than my big blue horse. I was even thinking of getting one for myself, but alas, it’s all a waste.”
Wang Li also said:
“I’m thinking of getting one to raise too. These horses look really good, almost as good as my fourth brother’s eldest son horse.”
Wang An interrupted the two men's reflections and urged the three of them again:
"Alright, enough of this nonsense. Hurry up and check your pockets. Oh, and pack up all these guns too. We'll hide them all together with the gold and stuff, and pick them up before we go home."
That's right, Wang An didn't intend to keep the gold with him all the time, but rather planned to find a place to hide it.
The main problem is that carrying these things around in these mountains is just a burden. Besides, you have to manage them no matter where you go, which is really not worth it. (End of Chapter)
