Meng Hao disliked the little money they made today, but Guo Yang was dumbfounded.

Although he knew how to make money by hunting, he could earn thirteen taels of silver in one day, which was too exaggerated.

Meng Zhen took the silver, and several people still went out through the back door of the restaurant.

The old shopkeeper who had a good harvest was very enthusiastic, not only personally sent the three of them outside the gate, but also told Meng Zhen that if they had prey in the future, they must still send them to the restaurant.

"Brother Guo, is there a place to sell horses, cattle or mules in this town?" Guo Yang was sleepwalking outside the alley with the cow as if he was sleepwalking, when he heard Meng Hao suddenly ask him this.

"Yes." Guo Yang nodded subconsciously, "Do you want to buy a big animal that can pull a cart?" ”

Meng Hao bowed slightly, "We can't always trouble you and ask you to help us borrow an ox cart every day." ”

It's just that he doesn't have money in his hand, now that he has money in his hand, Meng Hao doesn't want to continue to trouble others and make things difficult for others.

In the countryside, cows, horses, mules, and even just a small donkey are important assets belonging to a family, and farmers cherish these animals more than they do themselves.

Meng Zhen didn't want to always let Guo Yang show his face, so he went to help them ask the villagers to borrow other people's ox carts.

No one's favor can never be used up, and if it can be solved with silver, Meng Hao doesn't want to continue to cause trouble to those who are kind enough to help him.

Guo Yang is very happy, although he doesn't mind repaying Meng Zhen's "teaching" kindness, but this oxcart is not his family's thing after all, he always goes to other people's houses to borrow it, and he is actually very unhappy with the owner of the oxcart.

Meng Hao was able to understand him, which made Guo Yang's nose sour uncontrollably.

He endured his sudden complicated emotions and drove the ox cart to take Meng Hao and Su Shen to a small market at the end of the town.

This market not only sells vegetables, meat, eggs, mountain goods, baskets and other handmade products, sells steamed buns and steamed bread cakes and other precious food stalls, but also sells large livestock such as chickens, ducks, dogs, mules, horses, cows and donkeys.

Guo Yang left the ox cart outside a timber shop at the entrance of the market, and then took Meng Zhen and Su Shen directly to the innermost part of the market.

They didn't come early or late, there weren't many people in the bazaar at this time, and the group of three walked all the way to the innermost part of the bazaar very smoothly.

"That's it, but Uncle Niu doesn't seem to be out of the stall today." Niu Bo is a livestock dealer who specializes in selling large livestock, because two years ago, when the family was in the most difficult situation, he sold his old cow to Niu Bo, so Guo Yang is quite familiar with Niu Bo.

Seeing that there was only a white-haired old man leading a horse and a middle-aged man leading a donkey, Guo Yang couldn't help but hesitate.

On the way to the market, Guo Yang told Meng Zhen and Su Shen all his few experiences about large animals, and one of them was that "to buy large animals, you must find someone who knows and can be trusted to help you choose."

Originally, this "knowledgeable and credible person", Guo Yang recommended Niu Bo, a livestock dealer, to Meng Zhen and them.

According to him, Uncle Niu is a very old-fashioned person, and he has always been very honest in business, so Guo Yang is very relieved to let Uncle Niu help Meng Zhen and them choose and choose.

He asked Meng Zhen and Su Shen, "Why don't I bring you over tomorrow to have a look?" ”

Meng Zhen was about to nod and say yes, when the middle-aged man who was leading the donkey had already beckoned to them eagerly, "Three little brothers, three little brothers, do you want to buy big livestock?" Look at this donkey in my house. This donkey of my family ......"

He crackled and said, praising an extremely ordinary little donkey directly as a god donkey in the sky and the earth, and Meng Zhen wanted to ask him if his donkey had carried Li Er (that is, Lao Tzu, the founder of the Taoist school).

Of course, the price of such a god donkey is also extraordinary, and it is completely incomparable with ordinary donkeys.

This kind of person who runs the train with his mouth full, of course Meng Zhen will not rest assured to listen to him fooling himself.

She didn't speak, but turned her gaze directly to the white-haired old man who was leading a horse and his face was full of sorrow.

The old man was dressed in tatters even more tattered than Guo Yang, and the large stack of patches on top of his clothes was almost completely covering the coarse cloth that was originally made of clothes.

Seeing the middle-aged man selling his donkey, the old man was not embarrassed to come over directly to sell his horse to Meng Zhen and them.

He just sat in the distance, staring at Meng Zhen and them.

Meng Hao hesitated for a moment, and finally walked towards the old man, "Old man, is this horse of yours also going to be sold?" ”

The old man hurriedly stood up from the stone behind him, "Yes, it is for sale." I raised this horse with my own hands, and if it weren't for the fact that my little grandson was sick and had no money to get medicine, I wouldn't be willing to sell it to others. ”

As he spoke, the old man wiped away his tears.

The middle-aged man looked unhappy, and seeing him glaring at Meng Hao and the old man fiercely, Guo Yang hurriedly stepped forward and stopped between him and Meng Hao.

Although Guo Yang is thin, his height is taller than ordinary people, and there are also Su Shen and Meng Zhen, the "two and a half children", the middle-aged man did not dare to continue to provoke.

Meng Zhen is a person who practices martial arts, although her skills are far inferior to Hao Mengyun or Yan Zhenwu, but Meng Zhen really didn't see a middle-aged man like this.

She continued to speak to the old man, "Old man, can I take a closer look at this horse of yours?" ”

"Yes, of course." The old man touched the horse's neck, "Xiaohong, you are good, let this girl take a good look." ”

Although Meng Hao was wearing men's clothes, she didn't hide her girlish voice, so as soon as she opened her mouth, the old man had already heard that she was a girl.

The old man was actually very surprised, because in his opinion, at least nine and a half out of ten girls like Meng Zhen should not be able to meet each other.

What he didn't know was that Meng Hao really didn't know how to be a horse.

She said that she wanted to see it, but she just wanted to copy the theoretical knowledge in the book, as well as the Soma experience of her father Meng Qingze who muttered a few words from time to time.

For example, "Look at a skin from afar, and look at the limbs and hooves up close; Look at the chest width in front and farts in the back. Stocks; The big horse has a high head, so this horse doesn't have to pick ......."

Meng Hao racked his brains to reminisce while carefully observing the jujube red horse in front of him.

This horse looks very young, the age of the horse should be between three and five years old, the spirit is good, the coat is bright, the chest is broad, the muscles are full, the limbs are strong, the hooves are very positive, and its front shoulders are slightly higher than the horsejiri, it is the so-called "big horse riding head high", it is a good horse that can be preferred undoubtedly.

Meng Hao looked at it, and she couldn't pull it out when she saw the horse in her eyes, and she asked the white-haired old man who sold the horse, "Old man, how much silver are you going to sell this horse for?" ”
