Chapter 45: The Temptation of 100 Taels of Silver
Liu Wan held the psychology of watching the excitement, and carefully looked at the hero post, and the content written on it was the same as what the official said when he paraded on the street:
The person who received the post must complete the task of capturing or killing the tiger in Badu Township within one month.
Whether it is captured alive or killed, there is a heavy reward of 100 taels of silver. It can also reward five acres of fertile land, and farmers can be tax-exempt for three years.
Of course, if you fail to complete the task within one month after receiving the post, you will also be severely fined, fined 100 taels of silver, and displayed to the public with a flail for three days.
Damn, it's true: the rewards and punishments are clear!
Liu Wan thinks that someone with a bad brain will pick up this hero post.
It's the era of cold weapons, and there's a fire gun at most, right?
It wasn't powerful enough, it tickled a tiger like a tiger, it only angered it, and it couldn't kill it at all.
Liu Wan didn't expect that she watched it with relish, and someone on the side looked at her like this, showing a surprised look.
Liu Wan finished savoring the content posted by the hero, shook her head, and prepared to turn around and pull her son away.
"Mother, are you literate?"
Wang Xiao looked at Liu Wan with a surprised expression.
"Yes, of course I can read. When I was in my mother's house, I had a private student. ”
Liu Wan said unashamedly.
has a terrible mother's family, and he can hide a lot of flaws at once.
Wang Xiao looked admiring.
Seeing Wang Xiao's expression, Liu Wan couldn't help but feel that her son was too simple, how could he be so easy to deceive?
Wang Xiao didn't want to think about it, when Wang Dazhi didn't die before, Liu Wan didn't show any "talent" at all, why did Wang Dazhi die, Liu Wan pointed to where to fight, and everything could be done?
"What did you say?"
Wang Xiao is illiterate, and he has a gambling father at home, and he uses all the money to gamble, where will he let them go to school.
Liu Wan said the content of the hero's poster.
"Mother, I haven't learned the ability to hunt, otherwise I would have 100 taels of silver! If you earn it, you will send it. ”
Wang Xiao swallowed hard, envious, his eyes lit up, just like seeing others win the lottery.
In ancient times, there were not many opportunities to get rich, and this is one of them, but such an opportunity is to be exchanged for life.
Liu Wan snorted: "Don't think about it, help your mother do a good job, and you will earn 100 taels of silver soon." ”
After watching the excitement, the two went shopping on the street.
Liu Wan thought of the chickens, ducks, and piglets that Wu Hui was missing, so her heart moved and she decided to fulfill Wu Hui's wish.
I didn't make much money yesterday, but I made more than 2 taels of silver today, so I can be arrogant, Liu Wan said:
"Isn't Xiaohui talking about raising chickens and pigs? Let's go buy a few. ”
As soon as Wang Xiao heard that her mother was doing the right thing, she accompanied her to the livestock trading area.
If it was a few days earlier, in modern society, Liu Wan would definitely cover her nose, frown, and run away when she saw such a dirty environment.
It has to be said that the power of environmental transformation of people is powerful.
Now Liu Wan was indifferent, and when she saw a cage of chicken and duck seedlings on the dirty ground, she rushed forward excitedly, as if she had seen a long-lost relative.
Liu Wan stared at a cage of chickens that looked very robust and asked the seller for the price.
"This is a good white-feathered chicken cub, especially able to lay eggs, all of which are red-skinned and thin-shelled eggs, and a penny each."
"How much can I buy at a discount?" Liu Wan asked.
Without bargaining, shopping loses its meaning.
"At least 20, 100 yuan, you can count 98 yuan."
The uncle who sold the chicken thought about it.
After some bargaining, I finally bought 20 of them, which was 93 yuan.
Seeing the chicken seller uncle's face aching, Liu Wan felt very comfortable. That's the joy of bargaining.
If you don't bargain, what's the point of shopping?
"Two rooster cubs, the others want hen cubs."
Liu Wan reminded.
The rooster is aggressive, but you still have to raise one, and when the hen grows up, you can match, and if it is matched, you don't need to buy chicken cubs to achieve self-sufficiency.
But just raising a rooster, I'm afraid that it will die, so it's better to buy an extra insurance and be prepared.
"Okay, I'll give you this little bamboo cage, and I'll put it in the bamboo cage."
Chicken dealers began to catch chickens.
"Xiao'er, you catch it yourself."
Liu Wan dissuaded and supported Wang Xiao.
A young man as big as Wang Xiao has raised so many chickens in the countryside, he must know how to argue between his father and mother, but Liu Wan herself doesn't understand.
But you can't say this, otherwise you will be fooled by the chicken dealers.
Wang Xiao really lowered his head and grabbed the chicken by himself.
Let the chicken dealer catch it, Liu Wan is afraid that he will catch the weak chickens to make up the number. Or let Wang Xiao grasp the rest assured.
An uncle on the side saw Liu Wan with his hands behind his back, so he greeted loudly:
"This lady, do you want a little piglet?"
Liu Wan nodded and said, "You wait, I'll catch the chicken cub and then go to see your piglet." ”
Wang Xiao picked the chicken cubs and said:
"Mother, do you think this chicken cub is not spiritual? We can't have sick people. ”
"You can pick it, I believe you."
How does Liu Wan understand this?
So Wang Xiao picked 20 chicken cubs in one go.
Liu Wan saw that he had done it, so she counted 93 yuan and gave it to the chicken dealer.
"Hey, this lady, do you want to buy duck cubs? I have these good muscovy ducks, and I usually go to the field to eat insects, I don't need to feed them, and they are very good at laying eggs. ”
The duck dealer saw that Liu Wan was a rich man, so he hurriedly solicited customers.
Muscovy duck?
Liu Wan used to go to the farmhouse, and she had seen that kind of muscovy duck, which was indeed soaked in the farmland all day long, and it was quite able to call, but it was also quite capable of laying eggs.
All snails, small fish, small shrimps, and insects in the field were cleaned by them.
"Okay, get me 20 more." Liu Wan stopped.
The water muscovy duck cubs are the same as the chicken cubs, each for 5 yuan, and Liu Wan also said that it was 93 wen and 20.
Buying so many chickens and ducks, Xiaohui must be very happy when she sees it.
Wang Xiao didn't expect his mother to be so generous and willing to spend money to buy so many chickens and ducks.
In the past, if my mother had money, she would be collected by my father, and I would lose all my gambles, and my father would never plan for the family.
They bought piglets again.
However, the little piglet is expensive, and a little boar cub costs one or two halves of silver, which costs most of today's income.
Liu Wan took a closer look and found that the boars here were not castrated, it stands to reason that the boar cubs don't have to be castrated?
As a result, Liu Wan asked, and the other party said suspiciously:
"Gelding? Haven't heard of it. No one has ever been gelding. ”
Liu Wan realized a big problem at this time, no wonder she went to the villagers' houses and saw that other people's boars were not very big and emaciated.
And they all have strong personalities, and if they don't agree with each other, they will run around in the pigsty frantically, and they will hit their heads against the wall and make their heads bleed.
It turned out that because these pigs were not gelding, it is no wonder that there is a faint fishy smell when eating meat, and the taste is not good.
Liu Wan thought that there was a problem with the seasoning, but now that she found the root cause, she was shocked and felt that she seemed to have found a way to make a fortune.
But after thinking about it, she is a "young and beautiful" middle-aged woman, but she doesn't want to be born in the image of a gelding piglet, Liu Wan thought about it and gave up this way to make a fortune.
The little piglets are very expensive, and they cost one or two halves of silver, Liu Wan wanted to buy one more little piglet, but in the end she only bought one.
