Seeing this, the handyman wanted to make amends, and then spoke:

"Sir, look at the size of these oxen. If they were to pull a cart, wouldn't they be as fast as a horse? And in this era, there weren't many people driving carriages. Most of them drove oxen carts. These four The cow is so big, it’s a respectable thing to pull it out!”

Lin Xiaofan fell into deep thought and finally spoke after a long time:

"Can it be cheaper?"

It's not that these four cows are worthless when they do this, it's just that they don't want others to see anything strange.

After hearing this, the handyman shook his head:

"Sorry, this is decided by others. I'm just a little handyman and can't make the decision."

Next to him, Song Shang pulled Lin Xiaofan and said:

"Brother Lin, think again. Although these four cows are good, the same money is enough to buy ten ordinary cows. If you are buying goods, no matter how strong these four cows are, can they be faster than ten cows? ? And after you buy it home, you must feed it with the best fodder, otherwise it will slowly lose weight."

He had followed Lin Xiaofan for so long and knew that Lin Xiaofan bought cattle to haul quarry and lime.

It would make sense if I bought four of these cows to show off my dignity. But if you buy it to sell goods, there are some things that are not worth it.

Lin Xiaofan shook his head gently.

This Tianshan cattle is famous for being easy to feed. Even if it is fed with the most common grass, it will still be the same size.

"That's true. However, these four cows are so strong that it would be more respectable if they were used to pull a cart. Let's do it. Ninety taels, you go ask your manager if it can be done."

Song Shang wanted to persuade him again, but the handyman at the cattle farm didn't give him this chance. He agreed and went to ask someone.

"Hey, Brother Lin, why don't you think about it again? You're too impulsive. If you really want four cows to pull the cart, it's more cost-effective to choose four beautiful ones that can be fed easily."

Ninety taels of silver is enough to buy a good horse. It is really not cost-effective to buy four cows.

Lin Xiaofan didn't care, he smiled softly and said:

"Thank you Brother Song for your kindness. I want these four cows because I have my own plans."

Seeing that Lin Xiaofan had made up his mind, Song Shang shook his head and stopped trying to persuade him.

After a while, the handyman ran back happily.

"Sir, I asked our steward just now and he agreed."

The handyman spoke, his face full of joy.

You know, for selling these four cows, he can get a large reward, which is as much as his two months' wages.

Speaking of which, this guest official was lucky to be able to win these two cows for 90 taels of silver.

This cow has been kept for two months. Many people wanted to negotiate the price before, but the steward refused and refused to give up a penny.

It was probably because the cows were eating too good fodder, and over time they no longer wanted the cows. This made the person in charge relax.

"it is good."

Lin Xiaofan nodded.

Later, Lin Xiaofan bought another ox cart in the bull market, which cost only five taels of silver.

Taking advantage of the bull market to get the bullock cart, Lin Xiaofan and Song went up to the Yamen.

Before he entered the door, he heard Liu Li's shouting.

"Captain Qian, we are relatives, you have to help me with this matter."

"Sister Li, please don't be impatient. Please tell me what you did."

"Oh, this morning at the cattle market, I didn't pay attention and offended someone from your yamen. I think his surname is Song?"

"Have you offended someone from our Yamen? This matter is not easy to handle."

"Captain Qian, as long as you can help me settle this matter, I can give you any amount of money."

"It's all about money. I, Qian, are an upright person and never ask for people's money. Don't worry, I will help you with this matter."

While the two were talking, Lin Xiaofan and Song Shang walked up to them.

"Old money."

When Detective Qian saw Song Shang, he quickly put on a smooth smile:

"Hey, who do I think you are? Isn't this Brother Song? We haven't seen you for a long time. Is your injury better?"

Song Shang was excellent in martial arts and upright. When he went on missions with other yamen agents, he always rushed to the front, so many agents respected him.

"It's just a small injury, it's fine."

Song Shang moved his injured right arm. Although it was still a little stiff, it seemed to be nothing serious.

"Okay, okay, Brother Song, this arm needs to rest and don't move. By the way, we have some healing medicine at home. I will send it to you tomorrow."

Detective Qian quickly came over and held down Song Shang's arm, with a distressed look on his face.

"Hey, you guys, why don't you push people down to the lobby to convict them?"

Song Shang asked several yamen servants.

As an upright person, he naturally has to follow the rules of the government.

The person is first pushed to the lobby and interrogated and convicted by the officials on duty.

It stands to reason that if these two people provoke each other in public, they should hit the top ten.

If you provoke someone from the yamen, the crime will be aggravated, and you will get twenty big bans.

Maliciously knocking down the yamen's token is already an obstruction of official business and is very serious, and can be punished forty times.

If you go down these forty boards, a stronger person might not be able to get out of bed for several months. If you have a weak constitution, you may not be able to survive the winter.

"Oh, wait, Brother Song, please calm down first. I asked them not to move. These two are also my distant relatives. I want to ask them first what crime they committed? Can you be accommodating? .”

Detective Qian stopped many handymen and spoke with a smile, looking like a peacemaker.

When Liu Li and Liu Ergou on the side saw Agent Qian starting to exert his strength, they immediately felt confident and looked at Lin Xiaofan with a proud look on their faces.

Agent Qian is famous for his tact, and he can build a good relationship with anyone.

As long as he takes action, can the policeman named Song still offend him for Lin Xiaofan, a poor loser? You want to know who Lin Xiaofan is? He is a poor boy who can only marry a slow-selling commodity as a wife. How can he have any friendship with people from the yamen?

I was just unlucky, I just didn't notice that there was a police officer around me just now.

By then, I figured I wouldn't even have to leave the lobby, so I left without acquittal.

After getting out, give this guy Lin Xiaofan a hard lesson. In just one month, I had trouble with myself twice.

Lin Xiaofan looked at the two people who looked proud and ignored them.

However, what Agent Qian and Liu Erniu and his daughter did not expect was that Song Shang refused:

"Detective Qian, these two people are provoking me in the street. I'm sorry I can't agree."

Detective Qian's expression changed, but he soon regained his smile and began to persuade:

"Brother Song, it's their fault that they provoked you, but they are willing to pay compensation. In this way, they are also punished and you also benefit. It's the best of both worlds, how nice is it?"

He thought that Song Shang just didn't understand things clearly, or was blinded by hatred, so he explained the relationship with Song Shang.

"No, no, no, Brother Qian, you may have made a mistake about this. He provoked not only me, but also my friend."

Song Shang pointed to Lin Xiaofan next to him and said.
