Chapter 175 Buying a Cow

175 to buy cattle

And when Zhao Zhitong was sitting on the scooter, dragging his small head and sighing 'emo', suddenly there was a sound of cattle and horses in her ear, which instantly drew her attention back.

It was only then that she discovered that they had already arrived at the livestock and poultry market.

The livestock and poultry market is at the farthest corner of Daji County. At this time, many livestock are tied to trees, and there are many cages containing chickens, ducks and geese. She even saw puppies and cats being sold. of.

At this time, there were quite a few market-goers wandering around to watch.

Zhao Dong parked the trolley by the wall, and Zhao Zhitong had a moment of joy, and ran over with Zhao Ya, looking at chickens, ducks and geese for a while, and cattle and horses for a while.

Because these cows and horses were **** by the seller long ago, there was a lot of animal feces on the ground, and the smell was quite strong.

However, Zhao Zhitong didn't care at all at the moment, and instantly transformed into a curious baby, curious everywhere.

At this moment, he and Zhao Ya are staring curiously at a little donkey.

The two discussed the little donkey for a long time, and finally all the sellers who were attracted came over.

Then, Zhao Zhitong was not afraid of being surprised, pulled the donkey seller, and started to ask things: "Uncle, is this your little donkey? It's so small, how old is it? Is it still a donkey cub? How strong is it? Can it pull the five of us? Can it pull the plow to plow the field?"

Seller:…

In the end, the seller did not answer her series of questions, but instead asked: "Whose little doll are you?"

Zhao Zhitong pointed to Zhao Dong who was watching the cow, and proudly said: "That's my father."

Then he dragged Zhao Cheng, Zhao Yu, and Zhao Ya to the seller, and said proudly again: "This is my elder brother, younger brother, and elder sister."

The seller who looked at it had no idea what this little girl was so proud of.

After introducing his family members, Zhao Zhitong dragged the donkey seller to question Qi Ali: "Uncle, Uncle, you haven't answered my question yet."

The seller is also a real person, so he smiled and suggested patiently: "This is my own donkey, but if your family wants to pull a mill or pull a cart, you can buy a small donkey. As for the mill, it would be more cost-effective to buy a cow, and a cow can also pull a cart."

Zhao Zhitong nodded and felt that what the seller said made sense, so he trotted to Zhao Dong's side, and said softly, "Father, let's buy a cow, a cow can plow the land!"

Zhao Dong couldn't help but smiled cheerfully, and rubbed the little guy's head: "Father knows, we just buy cattle, farmers, and it's a good deal to buy cattle."

"Oh, oh." Zhao Zhitong blinked, looked at Zhao Dong, and asked, "Then Daddy, do you know how to watch cows?"

Zhao Dong couldn't help but smiled happily, and said embarrassedly: "It will be a little bit."

In his previous life, he was born in the 1990s, and his ancestors were rural people for several generations. When they were young, they still had cows at home.

He also went to the market with his grandfather to buy cattle. At that time, he was in a playful state of mind, and only heard a few words from his grandfather's mouth, and only had some vague impressions.

As for his current body, with that stepmother, he is rarely allowed to touch a cow, so the original body doesn't know how to buy a cow.

Then, Grandpa Bai began to popularize science for Zhao Zhitong.

Grandpa Bai: "Girl, first of all, we'd better choose calves to buy. Then, it depends on the fatness of the cow, that is, the fatness of the cow. Those with thicker limbs are better cows."

"Then it depends on the state of the cow. This mainly depends on whether the cow's eyes are sharp, whether the tail is strong, and then observe the state of the cow's feces, whether the cow's fur is messy, if the cow's hair is not smooth, it is very messy, and the body If the body is still relatively thin, you have to be cautious, this kind of cow is likely to have parasites..."

Zhao Zhitong listened very carefully, and then relayed the story to Zhao Dong.

At this time, an old man who was buying a cow next to him looked at Zhao Zhitong in amazement: "Hey, this little girl knows a lot."

Zhao Zhitong grinned and said happily: "I read these from books, I don't know if I'm right."

The old man was surprised again: "Oh, it's terrible, you still know how to read and write?"

Zhao Zhitong nodded happily: "Yes, yes, I can understand a lot of books, but, my husband said, it's not easy to read on paper, and I still have to do it myself, so, uncle, you Do you often buy cattle? Then you must know a lot more than me, uncle, do you think what I just said is right?"

The old man was very happy to be complimented by Zhao Zhitong, and the little girl was cute and sweet, so he said a few more words.

In the end, when Zhao Dong was buying a cow, the old man even gave his eyes.

A cow is still quite expensive, no wonder many farmers can’t afford it, even a cow of a slightly better breed costs ten pennies.

Finally, Zhao Dong spent ten pennies to buy a cow, and then went to buy a livestock harness, which was directly put on the cart.

So, when they went home, they went back directly in the bullock cart.

Zhao Zhitong was riding an ox cart for the first time, and he was so excited that he wanted to reach out and grab the tail of the ox from time to time.

But Zhao Dong dragged him back.

With the ox cart, they came back much faster. When they passed the bridge at the entrance of the village, they happened to see Qiao Muchen and Zhao Yue playing under the tree.

Zhao Zhitong was excited to get out of the car to play with them.

Zhao Dong had no choice but to stop the ox cart, and told her that she could not run around, go down the river, or climb trees, and could only play in the village. Then he hugged her from the ox cart.

As soon as he landed, Zhao Zhitong completely forgot what he just said, and ran towards Qiao Muchen and Zhao Yue happily.

And Qiao Muchen and Zhao Yue also found Zhao Zhaotong, and they ran over excitedly at this time.

Zhao Yue: "Wow, Tongtong, your family bought a cow~"

Zhao Zhitong: "Yes, yes. Why are you playing here?"

Qiao Muchen then returned: "Didn't we agree to go to the village today to investigate the case and have fun? I went to your house, but your door is locked, and no one can be called. Then Uncle Zhang Qiang told me, you go The county seat is gone, so we will wait for you to come back at the entrance of the village."

Zhao Zhitong suddenly felt embarrassed: "I'm sorry, I forgot to tell you, today we went to the county town to go to the market to buy cattle."

Qiao Muchen immediately shook his head, patted Zhao Zhitong's little hand and said, "It's okay, it's okay, I've forgiven you a long time ago."

Zhao Zhitong smiled cheerfully: "Let's go, let's go, let's go for a run in the village, and then see if there are any 'cases' for us to solve."

Then the three little guys ran wildly one after the other.

They ran from the beginning of the village to the end of the village, and from the end of the village to the beginning of the village, laughing and joking non-stop, even a stick can play for a long time.

Here, Zhao Yue was holding a wooden stick and riding on it, shouting: "Look at my horse, it's faster than yours!"

After speaking, he yelled and rushed out.
