   Chapter 158 Buying Cow

   "At that time, I will buy a small cart for the cow to pull," said Quietly with a smile. "In that way, even if we have a cart, we won't have to walk to town in the future."

   "Hmm." After a pause, Xiao Changyi asked, "There are still 100 catties of fermented bean curd at home. We will pick some and sell them in the town tomorrow?"

Quietly shook his head: "No, we won't sell it tomorrow. Tomorrow we will go empty-handed and buy cattle and carts. When we have the carts, we will go to town to sell fermented bean curd. That way, not only will we not have to pick those fermented bean curds, but also We won't have to wake up so early in the future."

   Riding an ox cart is much faster than walking to town.

   "Yeah." He followed her, and he had no objection.

  …

  The cattle can not only plough the land, but also be used for transportation. In this world, cattle are not allowed to be slaughtered without permission. Only when the cattle are old and useless, the owner of the cattle applies to the government and obtains the approval of the government before they can be slaughtered.

  An Jing and Xiao Changyi came to the place where cattle were sold in Sixteen Towns. There were many cattle, but there were only two types, yellow cattle and water buffalo.

  Yellow ox is yellow, its horns are shorter than that of a buffalo, its volume is smaller than that of a buffalo, its strength is also smaller than that of a buffalo, and it does not like water, so it is much cheaper than a buffalo.

   You can buy one ox for four taels, but you can buy one buffalo for at least five taels.

   "Master, I want to buy water buffalo." After hearing the introduction of the cattle seller, An Jing said this to Xiao Changyi without thinking about it.

   Xiao Changyi also followed her: "Well."

The cattle sellers were surprised and delighted when they heard that they wanted to buy water buffaloes. What was surprising was that not many farmers could afford to buy water buffaloes, but they were delighted that the money earned by selling one buffalo was equivalent to selling two scalpers. money.

   In the end, An Jing chose a buffalo that was particularly strong and healthy at first glance and bought it for five, two or four hundred cents.

   Then, An Jing and Xiao Changyi took the cow to the carpenter's shop and bought a small cart for the cow to pull, making it into a cart, and the cart cost a hundred bucks.

   Passing by a rice shop, Xiao Changyi dragged Quietly in, and then bought ten kilograms of polished rice, which was very expensive and cost twenty cents per catty, and spent a total of two hundred cents.

An Jing actually didn't plan to buy polished rice, but Xiao Changyi pulled her in. It was obvious that she had to buy it. She also knew in her heart that he bought it for her to eat, so she did not go against his will at all and let him buy ten pounds. The milled rice is placed on the ox cart.

   They still haven't eaten rice, but it's still okay to drink some very thin rice porridge with each meal. The last time he bought the polished rice, they ate it up like that.

   caught a glimpse of a pork shop not far away, and said quietly, "Master, let's go buy some pork bones."

Without waiting for Xiao Changyi to speak, An Jing lowered his voice and said to Xiao Changyi: "Bone soup is very nourishing, especially the kind of soup boiled with big bones. I used to know that pig bones are much more expensive than pork in that world, you people here. Really ignorant."

Pork costs 12 cents a pound, ribs are 10 cents a pound, but those big bones, because there is not much meat on them, and the people here don’t know that big bones are especially nutritious in soup, so they are very cheap, only 5 cents. Buy a pound.

As soon as   Quiet went to the pork shop, he bought four jins of bones and spent twenty cents.

   When Quietly bought the pig bones and turned around, she happened to see Xiao Changyi standing behind her with a bunch of candied haws.

   When Xiao Changyi saw her turn around, he handed her the candied haws in his hand: "Here."

  PS: Babies, have you been sweet enough? If you think about it, your boyfriend will give you a bunch of candied haws as soon as you look back... Isn't that feeling sweet and surprising?
