Chapter 1007: Buying a cow

Early in the morning, Xu Hao watched the sky in the gazebo for the first day, trying to recall what the process of artificial rainfall was.

"It's a pity!" Xu Hao couldn't think of what chemical composition he wanted to play, it looked like dry ice or something? The problem is that it can't be done.

Xiao Yuying, who had a slightly fat body, walked over, the former first beauty in Xiaojia Village, became more and more mature and beautiful as she grew older, but at the same time she lost the charm of her girlhood. As for Aunt Mei, who is over fifty years old, don't mention it.

"There was a rare incident in Lujia Village last night, and Master Lu fainted unconscious." Xiao Yuying looked embarrassed.

Xu Hao was both expected and surprised, hugged his cousin and lifted his skirt, and said to himself: "I can't fight the rain, I may hit people with one shot." ”

"Really, wasn't last night enough?" Xiao Yuying scolded with a smile on his lips, but he raised his hand to support the pavilion pillar and skillfully cocked his round buttocks.

It turned out that last night, Grandma Wang finally shouted with all her might, "You tie us up, how many people died unjustly in the river, hahaha, sink the river!" Hahaha. ”

At that time, everyone did not move, such a terrible voice, as if calling the undead at the bottom of the river, everyone was worried, worried about whether the sky would fall in the next moment, whether the earth would fall, whether the river would flow backwards or something.

Grandma Wang suddenly stood up, rushed over and pulled Lu Hanchen, and shouted like crazy: "Let's die together, I can't help you in the yang world, go to the underworld and ask the king of Hades." ”

At that time, the old lady Lu did not move, looking not afraid of being pulled into the river and drowned, without waiting for his cronies to come to the rescue, he suddenly felt blood rushing to his head, fainted all of a sudden, and was no longer conscious.

Later, I heard that Mrs. Lu woke up and had a seizure of epilepsy, and she was babbling nonsense all day long. repeatedly said that the ghosts of Feng Er and Lu Yongfang came to him, and Grandma Wang wanted to drag him to the Yin Cao Mansion to make an oil pot and so on, the crazy Lu Hanchen was so frightened that he hid everywhere, and he broke his head and bled at every turn.

Lu Hanchen is not a wicked person, he has done these few bad things in his life, and maintaining feudal etiquette also has a positive side, in all fairness, Lujia Village was governed well by him. He was stimulated to pass the threshold of conscience, and the people in the village remembered his goodness, not only helped to mourn, but also unanimously recommended his eldest son to inherit the position of patriarch.

And after Grandma Wang returned home, she asked the villagers to tear down her ironic archway of chastity, but who would dare? She doesn't care that the court has given her a seal, she takes a stick to beat, and a knife to cut, but the quality is very good. However, after cutting a few small openings, the archway still stood still.

In desperation, Grandma Wang instead publicized to everyone that widows should never observe festivals again in the future, and the days of widows' homes were the most painful days.

Later, the archway of chastity was still strong. I heard that she went to the nunnery to eat fasting and recite the Buddha, saying that she wanted to atone for her sins.

Xu Hao lost no time in intervening his legs, and asked the Lu family clan to agree to Lu Hao and Lu Yongjie for the reason of five suits. And the two also proved their affection for each other, but the clan wanted the two to leave Lujia Village forever, and they were not allowed to come back in this life and this life.

Xu Hao arranged for the newlyweds to go to the Americas by sea. Start a new life of their own, hoping that the couple can have more children to defend the homeland of the Han people.

The Wang family spent a sleepless night, early in the morning, Xiao Yao got up early to clean the house, lit the fire and made breakfast. And things suddenly took a turn for the worse, the imperial court announced the reduction of Xiaojia Village's land endowment this year, and the Xu family announced that it would unite a number of major clans to pre-purchase grain in advance at a price one percent higher than the market price, which was used to help the people who had no food and clothing, and also to stabilize the price of grain.

During this time, Xu Hao's actions were seen by everyone, so all villages responded in groups, and the Wang family was able to sell the grain in advance, and got the silver, not to mention, the gang of loan sharks in the county somehow learned that he and Xu Hao were friends, and respectfully sent the silver.

Wang Siliu was stunned, happiness came so suddenly? It was four or five taels more than expected, and Chengxing went to the big courtyard to find Brother Wang.

Wang Laosan ran for several days, and when the poor family heard that it was the Tong family, they all shook their heads, and the court and the Xu family were so powerful, and they were not in a hurry to sell their sons and daughters, he was worried about this, and no one wanted to raise the silver.

Today, Wang Siliu found the door by himself, but Wang Laosan is still a responsible person, and told the news that the second young master was added to five taels of silver a year yesterday, Wang Siliu's happy eyebrows danced, did he really change his luck? Good news one after another.

But Wang Laosan took him and the second young master Tong to talk, there were twists and turns, Wang Siliu naturally asked for a year's salary and the sale of the silver to be spent at one time, but the second young master said: "Your daughter has only been doing it for a year or two, and I still have to find someone to make the child cry when he is acquainted, is this still a sale?" Besides, we are neighbors again, and your daughter is just a two-year long-term worker, so you have to follow the rules of long-term work. ”

Wang Siliu nodded, the second young master is right, that's better, save the Tong family from life or death, or take the opportunity to ask for more money to redeem themselves, anyway, the silver to buy cattle is enough.

The second young master said again: "It's okay to finish it all at once, after all, it's a close neighbor!" However, it is necessary to calculate the monthly silver advance as a monthly profit, otherwise my family will suffer, and other people will shout for the advance in the same way, which is a bad rule. ”

"Done." Wang Siliu pondered that this is also the truth, so stupidly went to the account room, and the result came to an end, it was still equivalent to three taels of silver for a year, holding the silver of white flowers, he said in his heart that this big family really thought about it and did it perfectly.

There is no way, to get to this point, you have to pinch your nose and admit it. So Wang Siliu pressed his thumb print on a covenant, and felt that he had sold his daughter's feet, and he didn't feel good in his heart, so he walked out of the big courtyard with the money.

In the afternoon, he came to the Xu family's account room to get money, and the Xu family was not afraid that anyone would dare to take the opportunity to lie, and no one would dare.

Xu Hao came over to walk around without anything, and the villagers said hello loudly, and saw Wang Siliu also coming over, and said beautifully: "I'm going to buy cattle in a while, are you free, third master?" ”

Xu Hao smiled: "Really bought a cow?" For such a big event, I naturally have to go. Walk! ”

The big guys looked at Wang Siliu with envy, the Wang family seemed to have really made a fortune, not only could they afford to buy cattle, but they also handed over the third master, a great nobleman, and became a genuine Lord Wang.

Sitting in the carriage of the Xu family, he came to the cow dam all the way, and Wang Siliuxing jumped down in a hurry. Running came in.

Xu Hao smiled and followed unhurriedly, he was still worried about the mines everywhere, but fortunately it didn't rain, and the potholed ground became dry.

Wang Siliu saw at a glance that the big bull was still tied there, and it seemed that he was already familiar with it, and the round bull's eyes were also looking at him.

He walked straight over, as if he was going to pay the money immediately, and led the ox away. But when he saw that his wish had come true, he himself hesitated. The heart said to buy this one? Or choose carefully, or even go to a few more bull markets, take a look at more bulls, and wait for the market? After autumn and winter, the price will have to be lowered.

Xu Hao has always been happy to buy things, even if he is cheated, he will scold a few words afterwards at most, unless he is strict, he will not go to someone else to settle accounts or anything, and he is open-minded by nature and does not like to care.

It can be seen that Lao Wang hesitated. But Xu Hao didn't say anything, patiently accompanied him to see, buying cattle is the top priority of the Wang family, and as an outsider, you can't express your opinions indiscriminately.

The two of them were spinning around in the cow dam. Xu Hao saw that Lao Wang was listening to people bargaining, and he also listened attentively.

Suddenly, the agent who recognized him came over and said to Wang Siliu with a smile: "Brother, this time I am ruthless." Look at. The money bags are all here. ”

"I'll take a look first, I'll see first." Wang Siliu refused to admit it, and said to Xu Hao: "The third master can't help it. Let's take another turn. ”

"Take a good turn, let's not be in a hurry." Xu Haole agreed, glanced at the agent with the same smile, and squinted slightly.

So they hurried through the bull market, not a big bull market, less than thirty cows. Wang Laosi had to observe each head carefully, pat the back of the cow, look at the teeth, but didn't speak.

Xu Hao kept observing the cattle economy, as the saying goes, what you buy is never sold, and experienced people can see that Wang Siliu looks like I want to buy cattle with his chest up, these perennial cattle sales economy has few honest people, and they should be able to do some tricks.

Sure enough, there were two or three people walking towards the big bull, the bull market was not big, Wang Siliu found out at once, which made him subconsciously feel nervous, and he couldn't ask others to take away the cow he had so hard to like.

At that moment, he hurriedly turned around, Xu Hao still followed quietly, and those people touched the cow and praised it as a good cow.

Niu Economy muttered a few words to one of them, and began to pinch his sleeves, that is, they began to negotiate the price.

In ancient times, there were customary trading rules in this regard, and the most important thing for merchants in ancient times was reputation, except for profiteers, in fact, the same is true in later generations, once the price is negotiated, then this cow will undoubtedly not have Wang Siliu's share.

How does this work? Wang Siliu couldn't help but step forward and said to another cow economy: "Brother, I have long been in love with this cow, didn't you say to keep it for me?" ”

The cow economy said: "I said this, but you have not bought it, and the owner of the cow can't just wait for you." ”

"Look at it." Wang Siliu slapped the heavy blanket on his shoulder, full of momentum, "Aren't I here?" ”

The cow economy nodded, pulled another cow economy who was bargaining, and said: "Your business will be put on hold first, a few people can't help it, you have to come first and then come, this old brother has already said that he wants to buy this cow, and he also came just now, but he just went to look around." ”

The men looked unhappy, but they didn't say anything, and stood by and watched.

Xu Hao watched the two Niu Economy and Wang Siliu start a business, Niu Economy said: "You can take a good look at the cow, buy it if you are optimistic, don't say it's good and it doesn't count." Let's trade fairly, don't regret it afterwards, and come to ramble again. ”

Xu Hao didn't participate or remind, first, the current cattle price is real, even if the economy wants to make a few more money, it is reasonable, it is reasonable to find someone to come over, just not too much, in the final analysis, it is all for livelihood.

Second, he doesn't understand cows, and he is not qualified to express his opinions indiscriminately, but even from a layman's point of view, this cow is one of the best cows in the bull market, there is no cow in the corners of his eyes, there is no smell in general, his body is good-looking, and he is very energetic, so there should be no problem.
