Chapter 285: Is There a Problem with Your Ears Today?
A few people walked to the front, and someone happened to be selling cattle.
In these years, the imperial court had many restrictions on cattle, and there were even special regulations in the law to protect cattle. It can be seen that the importance of cattle is relatively small.
At this time, someone brought two calves to sell in the market, and it became popular all of a sudden.
"No wonder there are so many people today." Lan Xiaoqing couldn't help but sigh.
Lan Erlang squinted his eyes: "Then did you see anyone buying a donkey in front of you?" ”
"Then I'll have to jump up and see." There are too many people, and Lan Xiaoqing is a little short.
She said as she literally jumped.
Hu Dong was startled, and quickly raised his hand to help him: "Don't jump, don't jump, there are too many people here, I can see the front." ”
"Yes, let Dongzi show it." Lan Erlang said.
Hu Dong was tall and thin, and he could see the scene ahead by standing on tiptoe slightly: "I saw that someone was selling donkeys in front." Come with me. ”
Lan Erlang sighed, and then said to Lan Xiaoqing: "Okay, don't get lost again." ”
The three of them followed the flow of people, walked side by side for a while, and finally arrived at the place where the donkey was sold.
But there is only one cow for sale, and large animals don't need small things like chickens and ducks, and there are few people who sell them.
The donkey seller in front of him only led one head, and when Lan Xiaoqing and the three of them passed, there were already a lot of people around.
This is an adult female donkey, because it is able to give birth, so the female donkey on the market is generally one to two taels of silver more expensive than the male donkey.
The she-donkey was sold for eight taels of silver.
Eight taels is not a small amount, many people want to buy but are afraid that the purchase is not good, at this time they are either looking at the donkey or asking questions to the seller.
In addition to the donkey itself, the questions asked even involve the personal information of the seller.
For example, where he lives, how many people are in the family, why he sells donkeys, how he usually behaves, etc.
What I'm afraid of is that the donkey I bought is wrong, and I won't have anyone to explain in the future.
Lan Xiaoqing listened very seriously.
But when it comes to looking at donkeys, she can't see the slightest doorway.
Lan Erlang is also in a state of blindness like her.
It's Hu Dong, who seems to understand: "Second Uncle Lan, Qingqing, are you going to buy it today?" If, according to the seller, the donkey is just five years old and usually pulls the mill, then the price is fair. ”
"yes, I've inquired before. Even if you bring a donkey with a cart, ten taels of silver should be able to do it, and a brand-new carriage will be between 800 wen and a face of silver. If that's the case, I think eight taels of silver is fine. ”
Lan Xiaoqing expressed her opinion.
Lan Erlang subconsciously nodded.
Hu Dong also nodded: "Then I'll go over and see the donkey first." ”
"Look at what? What do you think? Any tips? For unknown things, Lan Xiaoqing has always been full of curiosity, and asked three times at the moment.
Hu Dong patiently explained: "It mainly depends on the teeth, coat color, mental head, and whether you have diarrhea." ”
"Xie's syndrome? Which xie, what xie? ”
Hu Dong's lips pursed slightly, but his face still did not change: "It's excretion, donkey's stool." ”
"Oh......" Lan Xiaoqing rubbed her nose and waved her hand, "Then you go, go." ”
Suddenly I feel so ignorant, what's going on?
Isn't there something wrong with my ears today!?
