Chapter 210 Mule and Horse Market
"Yes, yes..." When the cattle dealer heard that he was not buying cattle, he immediately went into the cattle pen to pull a black-and-white cattle, and said with a smile.

"This cow is four years old this year and has just given birth to a calf. If it is taken care of well, this cow can live to at least 35 or 30 years old. If you buy it back, it can last for [-] years. It is very cost-effective."

The ancestors in Song Heng's family used to be farmers, and the family also raised cattle. He knew a little about the number of cattle. He stretched out his hand to open the mouth of the cattle and looked at the teeth of the cattle. The age of cattle and horses depends on their teeth. Age is determined by the wear and tear of the teeth.

Knowing that the dealer didn't speak, the cow was indeed only four years old, but he still smiled and said to the dealer, "Brother, you're fooling me when you say that, who doesn't know that a cow can only be used for five or six years, and it can only last for five or six years. Are you going to be sent to slaughter?"

The businessman thought he was a scholar who didn't know anything about animals, but he didn't expect a scholar to know more, but his face has long been trained to be invulnerable. Hearing Song Hengzhi's words, he also smiled and said: "Guest Guan, you are wrong to say that, if you buy this cow back, after ten months, there will be a calf, which can be used then, and the calf can also be sold for money."

Song Hengzhi waved his hand and interrupted the dealer, "What I want is something that can be used now. I'm not interested in Mavericks."

"Hey, you said it earlier!" The dealer slapped his thigh, "Don't you just want a cow that can be used now? But I don't have any here now, and they are all on the farm at home. You have to make an appointment. It will take two days I can bring it to you."

Song Hengzhi looked around and knew in his heart that what the dealer said was not bad. Generally, the cows that are in use are just calfed, so it is better to pull them out and sell them like this, so he asked: "Is that good?" , then I’ll book one with you. But how about the price?”

"This..." The businessman laughed dryly and rubbed his hands together. "How about we hold hands?"

Since ancient times, the transactions in Luoma Market have never opened their mouths to say the price. They hold each other's hands and cover them with wide sleeves, and then point out the price with their fingers, and the other party also counter-offers with their fingers.

Song Hengzhi smiled and said: "Brother, you are fooling me again. I haven't seen your cow, I don't know how old your cow is, and I don't know how many years your cow can breastfeed. You just ask me to pay a deposit." , isn't it appropriate?"

The dealer nodded and bowed his head and said: "Yes, you are an expert, I don't deceive you, let's make an agreement, if you come here the day after tomorrow, I will bring the cow over."

Song Hengzhi smiled and said: "Not the day after tomorrow, there is something at home the day after tomorrow, so let's do it the day after tomorrow."

"Then it's settled. I'll bring the cow over the day after tomorrow."

"I'll be right there."

After agreeing with the dealer, Song Hengzhi took Ye Weilan and Song Jiayin to the carriage dealer, paid two coppers for the fare, took the carriage, and asked Ye Weilan: "Miss, where are we going next? "

Ye Weilan took out a prescription from her bosom, and said, "Aunt Feng asked me to buy a few packs of anti-fetal medicine for my mother when I was leaving the house. Fang Zi."

Song Hengzhi nodded, let the two children get into the car, and drove the carriage to a medical center in the city.

He was worried about leaving his daughter to look at the carriage, fearing that some bad person would snatch her away, so he went in with the two children. Fortunately, there was a young man at the entrance of the medical hall, who specially helped people look after the carriage. Next, at the door of the shops in the city, there will be such a little guy to help watch the carriage.

Ye Weilan handed the anti-fetal medicine prescription to the doctor's young apprentice at the counter, and asked him to grab ten doses of anti-fetal medicine for herself, and then asked the doctor to take Song Hengzhi's pulse. The condition is very good, but the body is still weak, if you can use some aged ginseng to supplement it, you can recover faster."

Ye Weilan hurriedly asked: "Uncle doctor, what is the price of this aged ginseng?"

The doctor twisted his beard with his hands and said, "At least 20-year-old ginseng must be used. I just received one in this store. It's still fresh. It costs 120 taels of silver. If you want it, you can take it."

Hearing the price, Song Hengyi quickly shook his head and said, "Thank you, doctor, for your kindness. It's too expensive. I don't want it!"

Song Jiayin whispered from the side: "Sister Lan'er, you spend too much money!"

Ye Weilan straightened her expression, and said solemnly: "Since you call me a sister, you treat me as your own family. I regard Uncle Song as my own uncle. I spend money for my own uncle. Where are you?" So much nonsense here?"

Song Hengzhi and Song Jiayin both stopped talking in embarrassment.

Seeing that their father and daughter were silent, Ye Weilan smiled at the doctor, "Uncle doctor, can I have a look at this ginseng?"

Seeing that she intends to buy this ginseng, the doctor hurriedly ordered the little apprentice, "Monkey, go and bring the 50-year-old ginseng that your uncle Gui sent yesterday, and invite the guests to have a look."

"Hey!" The little apprentice named Monkey turned around and entered the back hall. After a while, he took out a camphor wood box, opened the lid, and saw a stick not much thicker than chopsticks lying on the red silk cloth inside. ginseng, not only the ginseng tails are complete, the ginseng leaves on the top of the head are also green, and the color of a bright red ginseng flower has not faded, it is indeed an old ginseng with good quality.

Ye Weilan said decisively: "We want it!" As she spoke, she took out two 100 tael bank notes to pay the bill.

The doctor inspected the banknotes and saw clearly that they were banknotes issued by the "Jubao Bank" for nationwide deposits and withdrawals. He accepted them with satisfaction, and then asked the young apprentice to bring them the ginseng.

Ye Weilan happily took it, and bought a few dollars from him for high-quality velvet antler, and some other medicinal materials needed to make medicinal wine, and packed a large bag full, and at the same time gave Song Hengzhi the anti-fetal medicine and I paid for all the medicines to make up my body.

The little guy quickly grabbed the medicine, wrapped it into a medicine bag, pasted red paper on it, and wrote the name of the medicine on the red paper. Song Jiayin carried the medicine, and the three left the hospital together.

Ye Weilan walked and said: "This ginseng, together with other medicinal materials, is brewed in medicinal wine, and the ginseng beard is removed. At night, we will buy an old hen in the village and stew it."

Song Hengzhi was still a little embarrassed, "Lan'er, it's really too expensive!"

Ye Weilan said in a stern voice: "Don't say such things in the future!" She changed her mischievous expression as she spoke. "Uncle Song, let's go buy wine now, and I'll buy you a jar of burning knives that weigh ten catties. In a few days, we're going to invite you to a banquet. There's no feast without wine, so we need to buy some wine. There are also ingredients, You should buy some too."

Song Hengzhi could only keep his mouth shut, and never talked about this topic again. He took the carriage, helped the two girls into the carriage, and then went to the winery. The winery is not far from this medical clinic, on the same street, but It's at the end of the street.

Song Hengzhi didn't get into the carriage either. He just led the carriage and walked over. He arrived in a short while. There was also someone at the gate of the winery to help watch the carriage. He helped to watch, and then took the two maids into the winery.

In fact, it is okay to let the two girls wait in the carriage, but he is not at ease. He is afraid that the two children will be abducted by kidnappers, and he will have to take them with him wherever he goes, and he will not let them out of sight.

Facing the door in the winery is a wooden counter, and there is a large wine vat along the wall, which is used to break up the wine. On the front shelves are wine jars of different sizes, ranging from one catty to ten catties. , There is also a string of gourds hanging above the counter, which is for those who want to buy loose wine but have no containers.

Ye Weilan looked around curiously with her big clear eyes, but lost interest in the winery because of the strong smell of alcohol, and turned around to look out the door instead.Although it was not the first time to enter the city, but every time before, she came and went in a hurry, and she had never looked at this place properly.

I saw a restaurant opposite the wine shop, which looked very high-end. In this world, there is no shortage of poor people, and there is no shortage of rich people anywhere.

Because it was still early and it wasn't time for dinner, the restaurant didn't open until a few guys were wiping the tables and chairs with rags in their hands.A clerk was standing at the door with a bamboo pole, hanging up the sign that it was open for business.

A man in tattered clothes came over. The clothes on his body hadn't been washed for an unknown amount of time. His hair had long been felt and tangled on the top of his head. He was full of beards. He couldn't see his face clearly. He could only know that this man was Tall and thin, his steps were staggering, as if drunk.

He was holding a pheasant in his right hand. He stopped at the door of the restaurant, but before he went in, he saw the shopkeeper running out and waving at him, as if he didn't want him to go in.

He raised the pheasant in his hand, the shopkeeper looked at it, said something to him, turned around and went in, and walked out again after a while, as if handing him some money, and then took the pheasant.

He immediately turned around and walked towards the street with staggering steps. Before entering the door, Ye Weilan smelled a strong smell of wine and the sour smell of not taking a bath for a long time.

Ye Weilan couldn't help but raise her hand to cover her little nose and backed away, God, this person really stinks!
I saw him striding into the winery, but he was rushed out by the shopkeeper and the clerk. The shopkeeper and the clerk were very polite to him, and they all bowed to him, "My ancestor, please, the shopkeeper There are guests here, are you waiting at the door?"

The man didn't care, he just threw out a string of money and a wine gourd in his hand.

The clerk in the winery had a helpless expression on his face, but he still took his wine gourd and the string of money, turned around and went into the winery to make him a gourd of wine. The man took the wine gourd, turned around and walked away. up.
