Chapter Ninety-Six: Let's Buy the Cow
The next day, I stayed in a village called Shilipu.
Fusu found that anyone who stayed in the post station was happier, and there was no mess. If you stay outside, you may encounter things, and he doesn't know if Zhang Long also knows this. But this matter can't be communicated, and he can't make people think that the eldest prince is afraid of things. He was really not afraid of things, but troubled. His current status can't handle things casually, but he doesn't feel right no matter what, and many people in the team have high expectations of him. So, it's better that nothing happens.
However, the more I don't want to do it, the more things come. He felt that God was taking care of him.
In the house where he and Xiao Han lived, the cow was going to die.
When Li Dian arranged them, he felt that he was an excellent farmer, hardworking and simple, square, and the relationship between the top and bottom of the family was also harmonious, and he knew the rules and regulations. The official family came to someone, and he was arranged in such a family, he was relieved and had more face. But unexpectedly, the cow was going to die. Didn't you say you were sick the other day? How did it get to the point of death?
Li Dian hurried over, this matter was originally nothing to do with Wu Lao, but the death of a cow was a big deal, so he came over. The neighbors came to see the excitement, and for a while there was a commotion in the yard.
Zhang Long learned the lesson of the last time and asked Fusu if he wanted to change places to live, Fusu shook his head, if you come, you will be safe, at this time, the movement of changing places to live is too big, and the impact is not good. People will think that there is something wrong with the farmer, and the farmer will be uneasy.
Zhang Long had no choice but to stand in the courtyard as well, and he had to wait for the problem to be solved before he could leave.
But the cow can't die in a while, and it looks like it's about to breathe, but it can't swallow this breath. The owner of the cow, Lao Zhuang, was a man in his fifties, squatting next to the cow and sighing vigorously, the cow was very thin, lying on the ground with his head drooping, and his eyes were half-open. Lao Zhuang touched its head, and it occasionally opened its eyes, but it also looked godless. Lao Zhuang's daughter-in-law, who is called Aunt Zhuang, wiped her tears next to her, and a neighbor next to her said, alas, if the cow dies, it will be the same as a dead person in the family, how distressing it is.
Li Dian rubbed his hands, spun around on the ground, and muttered from time to time: "You planted the land well, and the county rewarded you with cattle, and as a result, it has only been a long time, and a good cow will be served like this!" ”
A few of the neighbors thought he was annoying, and thought that he was not close to people, so they wrinkled their brows and looked at him from time to time, but they also expressed their dissatisfaction in this way, and did not dare to express anything else.
Li Dian continued to chatter: "According to the villagers, I shouldn't have said these things that make people angry at this time. But what should I do if you die of a cow? What about the simps in the township, the county orders and the county officials in the county? There have been two deaths in the county this year, and this one is the third one, so we all have to follow your family to be punished. You said, you should have been cured of your illness earlier, why did you end up today...... Oops, I'm so! ”
He stomped his feet so loudly that the dust was waving up one by one.
Wu Lao also sighed on the side, it was not his responsibility, but it also happened in his realm, and he always had to do some work afterwards.
Xiao Han looked at the cattle and Fusu, and was very helpless about the productivity and laws of the Great Qin Dynasty. The regulations are so fine, and they don't make people breathe?
She walked over, crouched down, and touched the cow's head, and the cow still reacted, opened its eyes weakly, and closed them again. Its eyes were yellowish, with swollen eye bubbles and shallow eyes that ran down the cracks in the eyes. Because you are close, you can smell a fishy smell. There were a few dry particles on the ground next to it.
"Brother Zhuang, how old is this cow? How long has it been feeding? ”
Lao Zhuang was in no mood to chat, he felt that his father was going to die. But the new people who moved in were arranged by Lidian, and it was said that the nobles who came from Xianyang were not very good if they didn't care, so they had to force a smile: "I've been feeding for a year, and I don't know how old I am, maybe three or five years old, maybe seven or eight years old, and I was rewarded by the county." ”
Xiao Han asked again: "How long has it been sick like this?" ”
"Alas!" Lao Zhuang stretched out his calloused hand and touched the protruding spine of the sick cow, and said: "Since last winter, I have been getting thinner and thinner day by day, and I have no energy, I want to lie on my stomach at every turn, and I can't eat grass like when I first came." My child's mother thought it had mouth sores, so she boiled rice soup for him to drink, and barely drank some. The beans that the family was reluctant to eat, cooked them for him to rot, and fed them. Serving like this, I was more dedicated to my son when he was a child, but you see, it's still like this, look at this fur, it's not shiny, it's not elastic, the hair is always standing up, and it always has to arch its back and hold its tail, see? The neck is shaking, you touch it, its ears and limbs are cold, and in the last few days, it basically doesn't eat, and the rice soup is not drunk. The average cow keeps chewing in its mouth, it doesn't move, and even the moisture on its nose is almost gone these days. Moreover, it also leaked black water, making the yard smelly. My child is a clean person, and if she hadn't cleaned it, you wouldn't have been able to enter this yard today.
Xiao Han touched the ears of the sick cow while listening, and it was really cold, it seemed that it was really going to breathe. She looked up at Fusu. As soon as Fusu saw this expression, he knew that she had something to say. He walked over, squatted down, and touched the trembling neck of the sick cow.
Xiao Han tilted his head and whispered, "Let's buy it!" ”
Fusu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Xiao Han puzzled: "This is a sick cow, and you will get sick if you eat it." ”
Xiao Han patted his hand and whispered again, "There may be a bezoar." ”
Fusu was stunned and stopped talking. Who can be sure of this? Do you know about this cow?
The old Zhuang next to him heard the whispers of these two people, and for a moment his brain "buzzed", there was no idea, the stars in the sky, the golden stars, and the silver stars all flashed one after another.
Fusu stood up, he knew that Xiao Han knew a lot, but if he even knew the profession of a veterinarian, he wouldn't believe it. But according to his understanding, Xiao Han is not a reckless person, she often talks too much because she is close to him, and she is still very stable and particular about others. It's up to Xiaohan to do this, and he can afford to spend this money.
Xiao Han also stood up and said to Lao Zhuang, who was still squatting on the ground: "Brother Zhuang, you can also get up, let's discuss something." ”
Lao Zhuang regained his nerve from the shaking just now and stood up. Hey, my legs are numb! He waited for this girl's words to give his family a way out, but he really couldn't bear it.
"Brother Zhuang, what did the veterinarian say?"
Lao Zhuang said: "The veterinarian came twice, and the two times they said differently, the first time they said that the cow was not sick, and the second time they said that they were feverish, and they gave some herbs to clear the fire, but they were not good." ”
Xiao Han thought about it, she didn't have much of it, but the child watched the secret program and chased after it, so she was interested. Looking at the symptoms of the cow in front of him, they are very consistent with what the experts said. She hadn't seen the bezoar in real life, but she had only seen it on TV, and it was generated from the gallbladder or bile duct of a cow. The bezoar that grows big will even fall out of the cow's belly, and even the gallbladder can't be found.
Cattle are expensive. She hadn't eaten beef in a long time, but she wasn't hungry enough to buy a cow to satisfy her hunger, which was too luxurious for her to afford. But if Fusu pays for everyone to eat, this will not be an economic account. What is a brother, only those who are willing to share good things with others can be considered brothers. As long as the cow is not an infectious disease, she dares to buy it and eat it.
Besides, this old village that raises cattle is so pitiful and has been counted down by Lidian, which is really unpleasant. If there is a bezoar, then save him. Maybe all the officials in the county who are related to cattle will be saved.
Thinking of this, she said, "Brother Zhuang, let's discuss." We want to buy your cow and kill it for our brothers. But your cow is very thin, and though it is not plague, it is a sick cow. So in terms of price, please make it convenient. ”
That Lao Zhuang was a little anxious when he heard it, how to calculate it if he slaughtered a piece of bezoar? This girl wants to buy the whole cow together!
Xiao Han smiled and made a gesture to reassure him: "Brother Zhuang, I know what you think, we live in your house, how can we take advantage of you?" If you kill the bezoar, the bezoar will belong to you, and we will eat the beef for free. If you can't kill the bezoar, we buy your beef to eat, but the price can't be too high. First, it's a sick cow, and second, we're buying whole cows. ”
That Lao Zhuang was a little moved when he heard it, today's plan is really a life-saving plan, no matter what, he won't die a cow in vain. If you really wait for the cow to die before slaughtering, and the dead blood can't be released, then the price really can't go up. And when this group of people leaves tomorrow morning, they will slaughter the cow, how many people here can afford to eat beef, and they can't stink on that hot day? He set his sights on Ridian, not the child, as long as he said it, his wife did not disagree. Ridian is different, with him present, without consulting him, it is to make yourself uncomfortable.
Thinking of this, Lao Zhuang leaned over to Li Dian and said like this. There is a pawn there and his eyes are shining, if there is really a bezoar, then these people who buy cattle are equivalent to saving him. If it weren't for the bezoar, his results wouldn't have been much worse. It's just that if the benefits are all taken by Lao Zhuang, it will make people feel a little unbalanced. But if you don't facilitate this deal, it seems that you don't know what to do. The nobleman from Xianyang, does he dare to offend?
After thinking about it, he took out a local talker's style, walked over to Xiao Han and said, "Girl, we basically agree on what you said, so it's good for everyone." However, there is one point, Xiao Lao'er wants to say ahead, if there is a bezoar in the belly of the cow, but the amount is very small, if this cow is eaten in vain, is it too much of a loss for Lao Zhuang? ”
When Lao Zhuang heard this, he also nodded hurriedly, he was patronizing and excited, why didn't he think of this?
