Chapter 23 Chapter 23 Going to the market to buy cattle

Li Yu comforted Li Mei and turned around to see Li Qing looking at him with tears. Li Yu smiled at him and said, "A man is still crying, and he is not afraid of people's jokes."

Li Qing wiped the tears from his face and said, "Sister, you have suffered." After saying that, he put down the book basket and took the machete and went out to chop wood.

"Zhao Di's father, let's go dig some fertile soil in the forest. Fish said that stuff is good for farming." After speaking, Li Mei went out to pick up a basket, and walked towards the back mountain forest with Liu Changmin.

Li Yu said to Zhao Di: "Cousin, knead the dough and wait for us to come back to cook it."

"I know, cousin." Zhaodi nodded and went to scoop out the noodles.

Li Yu chased out with a hoe and a bamboo basket. When they arrived in the forest, Li Mei pointed at the soft fertile soil and said, "Yu'er, do you think this is the soil? Is it really useful?"

"It's useful, let's dig this home." Li Yu picked up the hoe and started digging. When he hoeed lightly, he saw the gray-black mulch underneath. Li Yu dug it up and piled it together. Liu Changmin and Li Mei dug it up. Yes, I put it in a basket and poured it back into the wasteland.

The three of them picked each other to dig, and they were so busy that after the sun went down, they piled several large piles of compost on the wasteland.

Seeing that the sun was going down, Li Yu said to Li Mei, "After my aunt has finished picking these, you and your uncle will go home and have dinner. I will go back and cook noodles."

"Hey! You go back first!" Li Mei agreed crisply, dug up the soil in the basket and poured it into the basket. Li Yu took the hoe back home, fetched water and washed his hands, went to the kitchen and took some Put the ingredients in a big bowl.

Zhao Di put the washed cabbage leaves on the stove, and Li Yu asked her to call Lai Di and Li Qing back for dinner.

Li Yu rolled the noodles into dough, cut it into fine pieces, shook the noodles and put them into the pot. When they were half cooked, he put the vegetable leaves in and cooked them together with the noodles. Then he put them into a bowl and put the chili rabbit that he had made in the afternoon. Spoon a spoonful of meat sauce into a bowl.

Laidi and Li Qing were holding a bowl of noodles and were sweating profusely as they ate. While eating, they praised Li Yu, "Sister, (cousin) the noodles with meat sauce are so delicious, so spicy, rabbit meat." The dices are chewy and delicious.”

After the two of them had eaten the noodles, Zhao Di asked Li Yu: "Cousin, are you planning to make this kind of sauce and sell it? I think you make rabbit meat, peanuts, and sesame seeds. Can you make money with these expensive things? ?”

Li Yu did the math, "Fifty pounds of peppers, twenty-five cents, six rabbits, five hundred cents, rapeseed oil is more expensive..." After Li Yu made an estimate, "These things cost about one or two cents in total." With the capital, if we can hold seventy or eighty cans, each can can be sold for thirty cents, which will make a profit of more than one or two silver coins. Do you think it can be done? "

Everyone's eyes lit up after hearing this, and Li Mei said happily: "Of course we can make double the profit. Let's pack a dozen cans at the market tomorrow and take them to town to see how much we can sell for each can." As Li Mei said this, she got up and planned to wash the cans. go.

Li Yu quickly called her, "Aunt, after washing the jar, you must scald it with salt water again. If someone eats it and has diarrhea, it will be in trouble."

"Okay, it's all up to you." Li Mei said and went to the well to get water to wash the jars.

Li Yu quickly boiled a basin of salt water. Sister Zhao Di brought the cleaned jar to Li Yu, washed it with salt water, and then put it upside down in the frame.

Early the next morning, Li Yu got up and saw that Li Mei had already gotten up and started making breakfast.

Li Yu went to the place where the nooses were placed in the forest and picked up four dead hares and two live gray rabbits.

Li Yu touched the dead rabbit and it was still warm, put the rabbit into the space, changed the position of the noose and put it in place, then carried the two live rabbits back and gave them to Laidi.

Li Yu told Laidi, "Remember that rabbits cannot eat dewy grass. They like to eat milkweed and lettuce leaves."

"Cousin, I remember." Laidi happily took the rabbit and went to Liu Changmin to make a cage.

After eating, Li Yu began to put the packed meat sauce into a basket on his back. Li Qing came over and said to Li Yu: "Sister, the teacher said that he will rest for five days in five days and let us come back to celebrate the Ghost Festival to help. Cutting grain at home.”

"Okay," Li Yu casually handed a can of spicy meat sauce to Li Qing, "bring a can of meat sauce to your husband and thank him for teaching you."

"Thank you, sister." Li Qing took the meat sauce and carried it towards the school. Li Yu and Li Mei went to town carrying meat sauce on their backs.

Li Qing arrived at the door of the school and saw the handsome and elegant gentleman and his smiling fox-like boy Ruyi standing at the door to see off the two guests.

Li Qing stepped forward and bowed, saying: "Good morning, sir."

Zhou Jia looked at Li Qing and smiled slightly, "Hurry in and go in! You will be tested on the homework taught yesterday."

"Yes, sir," Li Qing bowed and handed over the spicy meat sauce in his hand, "Sir, this is the meat sauce made by my sister. My sister asked me to thank you for your teaching."

Zhou Jia thought that Li Qing's sister was like the women in the village who were obsessed with him, and used her brother's hand to give him things. He reached out and took the meat sauce and handed it to Ruyi, "Okay, thank your sister for me."

He turned around and walked towards the classroom. After Ruyi returned to the house with the meat sauce, he handed it to Ji Xiang who looked like a happy man, "Jixiang, I heard that this meat sauce is very delicious. I'll give it to you to eat."

"I happen to be hungry." Ji Xiang went to the kitchen with the meat sauce in his arms, opened the steamer, took out a steamed bun, opened it, and pulled out the cork of the jar, smelling a strong spicy smell.

Jixiang took a spoon and scooped out a spoonful, smeared it on the steamed buns, took a bite and it was numb and spicy. The diced meat inside felt fragrant and spicy. He said to himself: "This Ruyi has deceived me so much." times, why did you change it this time?"

Li Yu and Li Mei arrived in the town. Liu Changmin took them to the place where livestock was bought and sold. Liu Changmin looked at several places and finally bought a strong ox for eleven taels of silver.

The broker took a few people to register, and then Liu Changmin paid the money and led the ox towards the place where the wood was sold.

Li Yu looked at the scalper and asked in confusion: "Uncle, I saw that the cows in front are quite tall and the price is relatively cheap. Why did you choose this one?"

Liu Changmin pointed at the horns and said with a smile: "Look, the bulges here are the growth rings of the cow. One circle is one year old. When buying a cow, you need to buy a young one with good teeth. The cow has a broad back, thick limbs and smooth fur. If you buy a cow, you must buy one." These things, if you look at this cow, it has all these things, it doesn’t matter if the price is a little more expensive.”

After hearing this, Li Yu suddenly realized and thought: It turns out that there is so much knowledge in buying a cow.

When he arrived at the place where the carts were sold, Liu Changmin chose a cart that had been painted with tung oil. The seller boasted that the rafters on his cart were made of tallow wood and he could use it for decades without any problems. .

Li Mei pointed to the mixing bucket in the wood shop and said to Li Yu: "Yu'er, it's time to harvest the millet. Let's buy a mixing bucket to go home and use for threshing millet."

Li Yu walked into the carpentry shop and saw the mixing bucket and wind grain machine inside. He felt that they were not much different from those used in his previous life in the countryside. He felt that there must be a time-traveling god who made these things.

Li Yu simply bought the mixing bucket and wind grain machine. The waiter helped carry it to the cart. The few people put the cart on and went to the incense paper money shop to buy things for sacrifice. They also went to the market to buy some onions, ginger, garlic and some Cai Cai left the town and walked towards the official road.

Cat thanks everyone for the love and encouragement!
