Chapter 365

This time the decision to buy an ox cart and a carriage was improvised, not that the family really needed it, their family has always rented the family of Man Ziye and Brother Yong, and it is really nothing to buy or not, mainly for the two of them. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

In the past few years, Wen Qing and Wen Yuan were inconvenient to leave the village because of Fang's madness, so they had to work as a helper at Brother Yongzhi's house while looking for work in the village, but now it is different, when they buy an ox cart and go back, they will let them raise it and hand it over to them, so it is best to let them earn more silver.

The more than 200 taels of silver that Fang's mother and daughter took were all borne by Brother Jialin's father and son, and if they didn't know when they could pay off by relying on the past work, they would have to wait a little longer even if they raised chickens for money. Wen Yuan is okay, but Wen Qing can't wait long, he has to let him talk about his family affairs earlier, if he wants to say goodbye, then he has to have silver.

It's not that their family doesn't give it, but Brother Jialin's father and son don't want it, since this is the case, then think of other ways to let them pay off their debts earlier, and then talk to a good family, anyway, ox carts, carriages or something, the two of them will be called after working in Brother Yong's house for a few years.

Of course, it's not to grab business with Man Ziye and Brother Yong, there are hundreds of people in Zhangjiazhuang, and the two of them really don't have a big impact, and Brother Yongzhi is still too busy to take care of his own family, especially this time when they have bought so many chicks back to stock, and they will have to be sent to the town to buy and sell in a few months, and they must be too busy, so they have to buy even more.

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this idea was good, and when she went back, she had to ask Brother Yong to help her, and let him take the two of them with him when he went out later, so that they could learn a little bit first, and let them see the world more, and it was also a science to talk and communicate. I still don't want to, it's important to do business at this time, it's already noon, do it early and go back early, so as not to let the eldest sister wait there for a long time.

Across the alley is the West Street, the West Market is on the West Street, in front of the vegetable market, the innermost is the livestock market, Jishange's butcher shop is on the vegetable market, she will not go over to join in the fun today, one is no time, and then today is a big set, she will delay him to do business in the past.

Walk along the vegetable market, and then turn a corner and walk almost half a pillar of incense, you can smell the smell of feces and urine from time to time in front, and further on, you can see that there are few animals bought and sold inside.

In this era, buying livestock is as important as buying a car in this world, and those who can afford livestock are generally living a good life at home, and what they take out is face. As Wen Qing said, the use of cattle in dry fields is much stronger, they can plow the fields, open up wasteland, pull goods and pick up people, and cow dung is still a good agricultural fertilizer. However, at this time, there are very few cattle, and they are still a precious species, and they cannot be slaughtered at will, nor can they be disposed of at will.

In her previous life, she had seen people in the countryside raising cattle, and she had not seen many cattle in the past few years, but she still couldn't tell which cattle were good and which ones were bad, so she followed Wen Qing and Wen Yuan around, and finally stopped in front of an old man, but this cow looked listless, although she didn't understand it, she still knew that it was sick, but she believed in the two of them, and found a clean place on the side to watch.

"Uncle, how do you sell this cow?" Zhang Wenqing carefully touched a few handfuls around the cow and stepped forward to ask.

"Little brother, don't look at my cow, there is a bag growing behind it, this body is not bad, you can do a lot of work when you buy it, if it weren't for the family's rush to use silver, I wouldn't rush to pull the cow out and sell it, so let's do it, if you want it, I'll give it to you cheaply, eight taels of silver!" The old man looked at the two shabby young men who were dressed around and didn't want to deal with it, but when he saw that the little girl who came over with him was finely dressed, he also accosted him, thinking that he came to help him buy it.

Looking at the young age is also an illiterate person, his cow from the sick to the present, have pulled out several times, as soon as he stared at the bag on the cow's back to know that the cow was sick and lived not long ago, no one wants to buy a sick cow back, he also can't run to hit the luck, this cow is not easy to raise, I don't know how to get sick, can't be cured, it's a pity not to sell, I had to run back and forth a few times.

"Eight taels of silver? It's too expensive! Uncle, when we came out, we only planned to buy a small one, and we could buy it for five taels of silver. ā€

"Little brother, eight taels is not expensive, and other cattle like me cost twelve or thirteen taels of silver, if I wasn't in a hurry, I wouldn't have sold them so cheaply."

The old man wrung his eyebrows and was unhappy, and after a while, he gestured and said, "Seven taels of silver, no less!" "Eight taels of silver is already a low price, in fact, if it doesn't work, he will be willing to sell five taels of silver. This cow has not eaten much in the past two days, and it will not be worth much money if it drags on for a few more days, and the biggest possibility is that it will die of illness, and the dead cow will have to be handed over to the officials to deal with, and he will have to pay for his death at that time.

It's just that I finally came across a few, and it is a little bit more to make a little more, but if this cow is not sick, let alone eight taels, he can afford to sell it even if it is eight taels more, "Seven taels, you have to stop thinking about it, if it's too late, this side will have to close." ā€

"Seven taels is still expensive, or let's give in one step, six taels of silver!" Zhang Wenyuan walked over and interjected.

"Forget it, you can sell a few taels if you can, and when it's time to disperse, I'll rush back again, six taels will be six taels!" One or two more is also good, he was still very worried about calling out seven taels just now, for fear that these few would know that his cow was sick and would not want to buy it.

"You show me the ox deed, give the ox deed first and then pay the silver!"

"Okay! You wait. The old man immediately took out the ox deed from his bosom, and the price was negotiated, and he had to sell the ox as soon as possible.

Zhang Wenqing took the cow deed, looked at it carefully, and took six taels of the silver that the little aunt had given before, and handed it over, "Uncle, this is silver, you take it!" ā€

"Hey, take this cow well, I'll leave first if I still have something to do." The old man took the silver, handed over the rope tied to the ox to Zhang Wenqing, and hurriedly left, as if someone was chasing him behind.

"Little brother, the cow you bought is at a loss, it's not worth six taels of silver, this is a sick cow, I have seen him pull it out and sell it for a few days, people know that it is a sick cow at a glance, and no one wants to buy it." As soon as the old man left, the old man who was selling donkeys on the side reminded.

"Thank you, uncle, this cow looks very strong, and six taels of silver is quite cheap." Zhang Wenqing smiled and thanked him.

"Don't believe me, this cow looks strong and will lose weight in a few days." The old man shook his head, this cow will not only lose weight in a few days after buying it, but it will also die, but it was inconvenient to remind him before, if he really said it at this time, he might blame him for why he didn't say it earlier, alas, this time this time this cow was bought back and lost, these children will definitely be scolded when they go back.

After taking the cow and bidding farewell to the old man, Zhang Wenqing handed over the rest of the silver, "Little aunt, return the silver to you." Then he excitedly said, "We have taken advantage of this cow today!" ā€

Zhang Wenyuan also said happily: "Yes, little aunt, this cow is sick, but Qingming can cure it, my eldest brother and I have seen him treat such a disease, and this cow is a cow that has not been an adult for two years, and the most important thing is that this cow already has a little cowboy in its belly."
