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

Chapter 583 Contents on the Satin Cloth

This piece of silk cloth is yellow in color. When folded together, it doesn't look very big, just like a large handkerchief.

But when I pulled it open, I found that this thing was really huge, much larger than a single mattress.

And it was covered with densely packed small characters written in some unknown paint.

These characters are somewhat difficult to read because they are too small and are all handwritten, which is what is called traditional Chinese characters in other places.

This piece of silk cloth looks like it belonged to the Eight Banners descendants of the Qing Dynasty, because the words on it are all about how to tame hawks.

There are seven ways and methods to tame various eagles, including goshawk, yellow eagle, pigeon eagle, osprey, kite hawk, sparrow hawk and golden eagle.

However, among these methods of training eagles, only the training of golden eagles is the most detailed, and the others are basically the same.

In addition to these, there are also some methods of raising birds, such as white sparrows, pigeons, starlings, thrushes, orioles, etc.

Wang An simply took a look at the contents on the silk cloth, then folded it up again and put it in his pocket.

To others, this satin cloth may just be an old piece of satin cloth, or an antique.

But for Wang An, it is a good thing and a very practical thing.

You have to know that Wang An’s current wealth may not be as good as those of the rising tycoons, but it is definitely enough to last for several lifetimes.

In addition to the gold coins and gold jewelry at home, including the gold harvested this time, Wang An already has more than 320 kilograms of pure gold, a little more than 30 kilograms of golden rice, and 6 gold nuggets.

There are also porcelain, jade, silver dollars, calligraphy and paintings, as well as a huge number of large coins, that is, ancient coins.

The most important thing is that there is also a large piece of Hetian jade and a night pearl. Although these two things are valuable, Wang An never planned to sell them, so they cannot be considered wealth.

In general, Wang An is no longer short of money and has achieved true financial freedom.

After his rebirth, Wang An did not have any big ambitions, and he would not even consider doing business.

Of course, if others are doing business, it is not a problem to give some advice and help, and then invest some money to get some shares. But it is absolutely impossible for Wang An to do it himself.

I'm not short of money, and doing business is more interesting than going up the mountain to dig ginseng.

As for gold panning, forget it. Unless another gold mine is discovered, Wang An doesn't want to come to this gold mine anymore, never again.

Therefore, with this kind of financial freedom and worry-free life, Wang An in this life wants to try many things that he had never come into contact with in his previous life.

With this piece of silk cloth, Wang An could think about taming the eagle. As for the well-known "training the eagle", Wang An would not do it!

Not sleeping for days and nights, just for an eagle, fuck, how painful it is!
I have to say, the Eight Banners children back then were really good at having fun, which is truly enviable.

Seeing Wang An fold the silk cloth and put it into his pocket, Wu Dong asked curiously:

"I see you seem to value this piece of rag very much. What kind of martial arts is this?"

Wang An laughed when he heard this and told the truth:
"There is no such thing as martial arts skills. It's just a method of training and raising birds."

Hearing Wang An's words, Zhang Shuya smiled and said to Wang An:
"What? Are you trying to be like those Eight Banners disciples, carrying a bird cage around all day long? Where can you go to walk cats and dogs?"

Wang An did not refute when he heard this, and continued to say with a smile:
"That's right. I have to pursue something at least. You pursue promotion and wealth, but I pursue riding a horse, fighting eagles and leading dogs through the mountains. Isn't that good?"

When Sun Nian heard Wang An's words, he said in a sarcastic tone:

"What are you pursuing? Why are you so unmotivated?"

Wang An was somewhat confused when he heard this. He blinked quickly and asked in confusion, "Then where should I go to make progress?"

Sun Nian said without hesitation:
"At the very least, you can't learn these useless things. You have to know that these things are all demoralizing. You have to farm well and work hard so that you can earn money in the future."

At this point, Sun Nian seemed to suddenly realize something, and suddenly changed his tone, saying a little angrily:

"Anyway, you have to be ambitious at such a young age, otherwise, you will suffer in the future."

But having said this, Sun Nian couldn't continue. He glared at Wang An angrily and stopped talking.

But when Wang An saw Sun Nian's expression, he started laughing "Hahahaha" and laughed so hard that he fell backwards.

I have to say, that is totally unpresentable.

Wang An knew that when Sun Nian couldn’t continue speaking for the first time, what he wanted to say next was “earn more money”.

When Sun Nian couldn’t continue speaking for the second time, what he wanted to say next was “endless suffering”!
But let’s not talk about other things, let’s just talk about the harvest that was shared equally by everyone, which is about 185 kilograms of gold per person on average.

Just calculate based on the lowest price of 8 yuan per gram, that’s 74 yuan!
If calculated based on the salary of formal employees of that era, a formal employee would need to live for 1644 years, and would have to go without food and drink, to save that much money.

1644, oh my god, this is so fucking horrible!

In fact, Wang An understood very well what those people who spoke ill of the Eight Banners descendants were thinking. It was nothing more than "sour grapes".

Most importantly, it is an unspeakably huge injustice.

The common people in the Qing Dynasty had little food to eat, but a bird owned by a descendant of the Eight Banners was worth one or two hundred taels of silver.

Other calculation methods may not be accurate, so if we use grain as the conversion amount, one tael of silver in the Qing Dynasty is equivalent to 300 kilograms of grain, so 100 taels of silver is equivalent to 3 kilograms of grain.

In other words, 15 tons of grain were used to buy just one bird.

But we have to admit that although the Qing Dynasty has fallen, who would not envy the lives of those Eight Banners descendants?

As long as he is a human being, he will be envious. Not only will he be envious, but he will also be jealous and hate.

Wang An's laughter sounds really serious and disgusting, and the key is that it is too unscrupulous.

But this time, not only everyone was silent, even Zhang Shuya was silent, because all the people present were beneficiaries.

After Wang An had laughed enough, Wang Shuai said with a smile:

"After Xiao Nian's reminder, I just want to eat and wait for death. What else is there to strive for?"

When Wang An heard this, he immediately smiled and said:

"Then who knows you? Anyway, I don't believe you dare to imitate me."

Wang Shuai smiled bitterly and said:

"You are so boring. It's fine if you just cut it, but you have to smear some soybean paste on it."

Wang An continued to laugh:

"Then you see, it would be strange if I were happy to see you guys unhappy."

In this way, everyone returned to the camp, chatting with their own thoughts.
