Tofu Shih Tzu? This kind of vulgar and glamorous name really attracts attention, but Bai Jinyu pondered it carefully, but he still couldn't make an article, so he secretly gave up again.

Mrs. Gu saw that Bai Jinyu had something on her mind, and kindly asked, "Miss Bai, what kind of household name do you want to ask?" ”

Bai Jinyu smacked her lips, the goal she wanted was really a little difficult to describe, she tried to describe: "That's it...... Is there anything that Chang'an people know about it, and if I take it or destroy it, it will immediately cause a sensation in the whole Chang'an......"

Before she finished speaking, she saw that Mrs. Gu's eyes were frozen, as if she saw her intention to commit adultery.

Bai Jinyu then fell back to his seat and waved his hand.

At this moment, the shouts of "go, go, go" came from outside the door. Bai Jinyu and Mrs. Gu both stretched out their heads to look, it turned out that the guy in the store had driven a sheep back from the street.

Mrs. Gu hurriedly stood up and called out to the guy to drive the sheep to her, she carefully looked at the sheep and asked the guy, "This sheep looks a lot fatter, how much silver did you buy?" ”

The man replied: "Today is cheap, this lamb is thirty catties, and it only costs ten silver!" ”

Mrs. Gu nodded in approval, turned her head and said to Bai Jinyu: "Miss Bai, wait a minute, stay here, my chef is very good at making mutton, and you will have an unforgettable taste!" ”

Bai Jinyu excused himself: "No, I still have something." Ten taels of silver is also a lot, Chang'an is worthy of the feet of the Son of Heaven, the price is really not low, if such a sheep is in Luzhou, it will be seven or eight taels at most, it is really expensive two or three taels of silver! ”

The guy was a native of Chang'an, and when he heard Bai Jinyu say this, he quipped: "Ten taels is not expensive, and the sheep herd who sells sheep still sells sheep for ten taels and one catty!" That old man has a hole, and he hasn't sold a single one for more than two months, waiting for those sheep to be sent to the end! ”

Bai Jinyu couldn't help but be curious: "What kind of sheep, it's so expensive to sell for ten taels and one catties?" ”

Boss Gu said on the side: "I know this, it is an old shepherd in the sheep market, his son once went to do business abroad, and there was an accident halfway, and when he rushed to find his son, his son was already dead." At that time, his son had nothing around him, only a dozen weird-headed sheep around him. So the old man brought these strange sheep back, and sold them in the market for ten taels of silver a catty, alas, but they were poked in the backbone! But the old man recognized the price, and he didn't cut the price alive or dead. ”

Bai Jinyu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked, "How many people in Chang'an know about this old man's selling strange sheep?" ”

"Then I guess everyone knows it," the man pondered: "That shepherd is an old stall, the market is good, and the sheep looks strange, but everyone who goes to buy vegetables has seen it, and everyone in Chang'an knows about it, and they all take him as a joke!" ”

Bai Jinyu immediately stood up and said to the guy: "Is the shepherd still there, I want to go and see!" ”

The guy said, "It should be there!" ”

Immediately, the guy responded to Boss Gu's request and took Bai Jinyu to the sheep market.

They stopped in front of a very conspicuous stall, and the man pointed to the sheepfold of a dozen sheep, and said, "Girl, do you see, that strange head and sheep are the innermost one!" Do you think it's strange? ”

Bai Jinyu looked along his fingers, and saw that there was indeed a different sheep in the northwest corner of the sheepfold.

This sheep is snow-white, shiny, strong and powerful limbs, and it is a first-class excellent breed from the perspective of the body.

But this sheep has a strange head as the name heard before, and it lives up to the title of "strange head sheep".

I saw that its face was like a dog, with a huge hooked nose and a high bulge, and the most exaggerated thing was its two ears, which were as wide as two huge banana fans, and drooped down to the leg of mutton, which was indeed strange.

Bai Jinyu looked at this sheep carefully, and always felt that it was not very strange, as if he had seen it somewhere.

After the old shepherd finished a business, he turned around and saw Bai Jinyu staring at the "strange sheep" in the circle for a moment, slowly moved closer to her, observed her for a while, and said, "Is the girl here to buy sheep?" ”

Bai Jinyu said: "Let's take a look first, I haven't decided whether to buy it or not!" ”

The old shepherd did not urge her: "Well, the girl will tell the old man which sheep she likes." ”

Bai Jinyu nodded and thanked her, but the old shepherd did not walk away, still standing by Bai Jinyu's side and watching the sheepfold with her.

Not long after, Bai Jinyu pointed to the monster sheep and said, "I heard that you sold that monster sheep for ten taels and one catties?" ”

The old shepherd said: "Yes, ten taels and one catties, this sheep has been weighed today, thirty-five catties, a total of three hundred and fifty taels of silver!" The old shepherd said this sky-high price, his face did not change, and his voice was loud, which immediately attracted the attention of many nearby stalls and passers-by.

"Yo, strange!" A butcher selling dog meat next door came over, put his arm on the old shepherd's shoulder, and taunted: "Could it be that there are rare customers who want to buy this strange head sheep today!" ”

"It's really fake, who dares to eat such a deformed sheep, everything that eats is supplemented by form, eat this, I'm afraid that even people's bodies will become deformed ghosts in the future!"

"Yes, yes, yes, and three hundred and fifty taels of silver, it's just a money grab, who is the wronged boss!"

Gradually, more people gathered around the sheepfold. In addition to looking at this strange head sheep, it is also a pair of white brocade jade that is likely to be bought.

"This isn't some deformed sheep!" In the midst of everyone's mouths, Bai Jinyu said.

The old shepherd beside him was stunned on the spot, and hurriedly asked Bai Jinyu: "Does the girl recognize the breed of this sheep?" ”

Bai Jinyu looked at the old shepherd and said, "I just saw it in a book called "You Xi Bi Tan", and this is the first time I have seen the real thing. It was recorded in the book that more than 500 years ago, the Great Moon Clan was rich in a kind of meat and fat lamb, called the hanging ear sheep, white as snow, without horns on the top, its ears were longer than the knees, and its head hung down to the ground. ”

The old shepherd was stunned and excited, "This ...... Isn't this just a sheep like me, five hundred years ago, the Great Moon Clan ...... My son......"

Bai Jinyu knew that the old man's heart must be fluctuating at this time, so he smiled and said to him: "The Great Moon Clan has started trading with the Central Plains more than five hundred years ago, but it is a pity that it was suddenly destroyed by the Turks, if it were not for this, this kind of sheep must have been introduced into the Central Plains long ago, and people today will not be so surprised to see this kind of sheep!" ”

The old man's chest rose and fell sharply, as if he had met a bosom friend and a benefactor, and tears gradually appeared in the wrinkled corners of his eyes.

Bai Jinyu said: "Your ten taels of silver are too cheap to sell!" ”

There was an immediate chorus of exclamations behind her, and she heard several people say that she was "out of the brain."

Bai Jinyu smiled at everyone and said: "It was recorded in "You Xi Bi Tan" that a sheep with hanging ears can be exchanged for three high-rise buildings and 100 acres of fertile land, and now this old man only sells 350 taels, isn't it too cheap? ”
