That night, Niu Laogen heard that Mrs. Qian had a big laugh again, so angry that he picked up a broom and was about to beat Mrs. Qian.
At the same time, Wang Shihu came back from the town, drank at Niu Dali's house, and handed over the eleven taels of foxes sold in the town to Niu Dali.
"So much?" Li Xianglan was a little stunned, she didn't expect that the silver sold by the two little foxes was actually more than that of a big wild boar.
You must know that their big wild boar has only been sold for more than four taels.
"It's also thanks to Brother Niu's good archery skills! Otherwise, other people won't be able to sell so much. ”
Wang Shihu explained with a smile.
In fact, fox meat is not worth much, the most valuable thing is the fox's fur, because the ox shot the fox with an arrow, the fox fur is not stained with too much blood, so the price will be higher.
Niu Dali didn't care about how much silver he sold, he gave Wang Shihu more than five taels of eleven taels from selling foxes.
How to say that they went up the mountain together at that time, and the benefits were still evenly divided.
But Wang Shihu didn't accept it, and finally pushed and shoved, Wang Shihu had no choice but to accept the hard work of three taels.
Hearing that Niu Dali hit a big wild boar on the mountain, and sold the big wild boar to the villagers at a low price of ten copper coins a catty, Wang Shihu sighed and gave a thumbs up directly.
Yesterday, he had seen the power of Niu Dali, the prey three hundred meters away could easily shoot the head with an arrow, even if someone told him that Niu Dali hunted a big bear, he took it for granted.
After drinking a meal, Wang Shihu became a little drunk, so he got up and said goodbye.
When leaving Niu Dali's house, he smiled and said: "Brother Niu, my brother was still a little worried about you before, but I didn't expect you to be so capable? Live well, the eldest girl and the second girl can't live without their father!"
"I understand!" Niu nodded with a smile.
He naturally understood what Wang Shihu meant.
Although his physical condition has been well early, he can't tell Wang Shihu to listen, it's not that he doesn't trust Wang Shihu, but there are some things that few people know about the better.
Night.
Niu Dali's family strung the scattered copper coins with a thin rope in the house.
The two little girls also counted the copper coins, and their bright eyes flashed with other joy.
Of course, the eldest girl and the second girl will only count from one to ten, and what is the number behind ten, they will not know, but it does not hinder their ability to count money.
You must know that they have never seen what copper coins look like before, but they didn't expect to see not only now, but so many more.
Niu Dali felt the need to teach the two girls to count, so he began to let the two girls follow him to count, he said one, and the two girls also said one, so that Li Xianglan, who saw this scene on the side, shook her head.
In this way, a family of four is stringing copper coins, and in ancient times, a thousand copper coins were used as a string, also known as consistent, and they could always exchange one or two at the bank.
After stringing all the copper coins with strings, Niu Dali gave the eldest girl and the second girl three copper coins each, which made the two girls jump up with joy.
This is the first pot of gold that the two girls have won in their lives.
The night passed quickly.
The next day.
If there is any hottest topic in Xinghua Village this morning, it is undoubtedly the matter of Niu vigorously hitting the big wild boar.
However, as people talked about it more and more, the news that Niu Dali was almost accepted as a disciple by an old Taoist priest was also dug up.
"Have you heard? Back then, an old Taoist priest passed by our Xinghua Village, and saw at a glance that Niu Dali was different, and planned to accept Niu Dali as a disciple, but I didn't expect Niu Laogen and the Qian Pozi not only to disagree, but also said that the old Taoist priest was a liar and swept him away!"
"Of course I heard about it, and I also heard that the old village chief sighed for several days about this matter! Even the old village chief sighed, but I was afraid that the old Taoist priest was a capable master. ”
Things that have been forgotten are gradually talked about in the mouths of the villagers, and the more it spreads, the more miraculous, some say that the old Taoist priest is a god in the sky, and intends to go down to the earth to accept disciples, and some say that the old Taoist priest is a hermit master.
"Did you say that the old Taoist priest taught Dali anything? Otherwise, how could Dali hunt a big wild boar?"
There are even some villagers who think that the old Taoist priest must have passed on some skills to Niu Dali, otherwise, how could Niu Dali be so powerful that even a big wild boar can be hunted.
Anyway, all the villagers in Xinghua Village laughed at Niu Laogen's family.
Now, the Niu family has separated the Niu Dali family, even if the Niu Dali family is developed in the future, it doesn't matter what the Niu family does.
When Mrs. Qian heard this, she immediately disdainfully said: "What is it? Dare to compare us with that mud-legged man, if you don't just beat a wild boar, what's the big deal! If my eldest grandson is here, let alone a wild boar, even if the big insect on the mountain is not a random one." ”
"Mother is right! No matter how powerful Niu Dali is, he is not just a hunter! How can he compare with Yongyi!" Zhang's face was a little bruised, thinking that he had been taught a lesson by Niu Dazhuang last night.
Mrs. Qian was very satisfied when she heard it, and she was most proud of her eldest grandson who was a martial artist in the martial arts hall in the town.
Early that morning, Li Xianglan was washing clothes by the river with a wooden bucket full of clothes, and some women who were familiar with Li Xianglan came over to inquire whether the old Taoist priest had passed on his skills to Niu Dali.
Li Xianglan, who didn't know anything about the things back then, could only shake her head and say that she didn't know, saying that she had only recently learned that Niu Dali had almost been accepted as a disciple by the old Taoist.
The surrounding women knew that they couldn't ask why, so they all shifted the topic to yesterday's wild boar, saying that wild boar meat was better than domestic pigs, but it was not fat enough.
Li Xianglan smiled, washing her clothes and listening to their conversation.
However, a trace of doubt also rose in her heart.
Soon, after Li Xianglan washed her clothes, she said goodbye to the woman by the river, and then got up and walked towards her house.
"Now, Xianglan's good days have finally come!"
"Who says it isn't? When we were at Lao Niu's house before, we all washed our things and went back, and Xianglan's things were only half washed, and now Xianglan is the first to leave. ”
"That's not what I'm talking about! I'm talking about the cattle hunting so strongly, and they will be blessed in the future. ”
"How can it be so easy here? Do you think you can always go up the mountain to get your prey? What is the place of Daluo Mountain, what kind of big insects and poisonous snakes run all over the ground, who knows when you will go up the mountain vigorously and not come back?"
"Seems to make sense!"
The woman by the river nodded.
At that time, Niu Dali's grandfather was not the best hunter in Xinghua Village, and every time he went up the mountain, he would not return empty-handed, but in the end, he did not come back.
