The little girl from a farm family has a big wish to make a fortune by farming and picking mushrooms

The next morning, no one in the family slept in, and everyone got up early.

After having breakfast, a group of people picked up bamboo tubes filled with water and walked towards the town in a mighty manner.

Because there were so many people, Old Mrs. Zhou did not plan to take the ox cart in Lijiagou.

On the way, she met a woman from Lijiagou. On the surface, those people greeted her warmly, but they started to roll their eyes at her after she had walked a short distance. They really thought that this old woman in her 50s was presbyopic and couldn't see at all.

"Xiao Lian, you must be careful. If the people from Lijiagou come to our house to propose marriage, none of us can agree. There is not a single good person in the whole village."

"Mom, I get it. I don't like the way they behave."

Naturally, there are good families in Lijiagou, but the behavior of the women in this village in the past two years has been really disheartening, so Mrs. Zhou can't like those good families at all.

Even if they are a good family, life would be uncomfortable if they lived in a village like this.

"Mom, let them be. What does our life have to do with them? If they go too far, you don't have to do anything. We can just go and do it."

"Come on, the guys didn't provoke you. If there's going to be a quarrel, we'll go. As a grown man, you shouldn't get involved in this."

Zhou Laosan shrank his head. It seemed that she cared more about the opinions of those women.

Zhou Mingzhi and Zhou Mingjie looked at each other and thought, it’s all over, Dashan’s little lover is from Lijiagou!

When they reached the entrance to the town, Old Lady Zhou gave Liu a bag of copper coins and said, "Children, if you want anything, don't hesitate. You can buy anything useful."

"Okay, thank you, mom."

They also had a few copper coins on them, and they didn't expect that the mother-in-law would give them some money. It was an unexpected surprise.

The two groups separated. Old Mrs. Zhou took her three sons and Zhou Mingshu to the livestock market first, while the others went shopping. There were all kinds of stalls on the street and there were many people, so they could shop for a long time.

Because Zhou Mingshu had been there once, and today she was going there specifically to lead the donkey home, so in addition to being excited, her steps were also a little anxious.

"Look how anxious you are. Can't you walk slower?" Old Mrs. Zhou reached out and held her granddaughter's arm to prevent her from running too fast and disappearing.

"Hehe, I walked faster without realizing it." Zhou Mingshu argued.

When the five people arrived at the livestock market, the eyes of those who were selling livestock became eager.

An old man brought four children with him, and it was obvious that they were shopping together, so he kept recommending to them how good his own livestock were.

Looking at the chickens, ducks, geese, rabbits, squirrels, roe deer and goats on the roadside, they realized that these were not their target livestock, so they walked forward while watching.

Passing by a group of piglets, Old Mrs. Zhou stopped for the rare occasion, and Boss Zhou and the others also stopped surprisingly in unison.

Look at this pink little piglet. If it is made into a golden roast suckling pig, it will taste...

"Oh, sir, you have really good taste. This litter of piglets in my house was born at the beginning of this month. They are fat and cute, and very lively on weekdays. You can touch them and see how many you want?"

Mrs. Zhou looked at the cute piglets and was indeed very tempted. "How much is one of your piglets?"

"Not expensive, only five hundred coins each."

When Mrs. Zhou heard the price, she curled her lips and turned away.

"Oh, old lady, the price is negotiable, the price is negotiable, please don't leave~"

Zhou Mingshu, who was following behind, smiled. The boss’ offer might be too outrageous, otherwise Mrs. Zhou would not have reacted like this.

These piglets are probably not weaned yet. They weigh about 7 to 8 kilograms each. Five hundred coins is indeed a bit too much.

"Grandma, don't you want to buy piglets?"

"Tsk, I just thought the piglets were cute, so I just looked at them a few more times. If you take such small pigs to the streets to sell, they won't be killed by the sun. Even if you buy them back, they won't be easy to raise."

"Yeah, that's right. These piglets probably haven't been weaned yet."

Not long after they walked, they arrived at the place where donkeys were being sold.

As Mrs. Zhou expected, not only was the target donkey not sold, but all the other donkeys were still sold.

Is it so hard to sell a donkey?

Zhou Mingshu didn't know how to bargain, and with a group of adults present, it was not her turn to speak. She followed silently behind Old Lady Zhou as her little bodyguard, watching their actions quietly.

Boss Zhou and his two companions were also good at acting. They found out the details of all the donkeys present. The donkey owners all thought that their donkeys were being taken a fancy to and tried their best to sell them.

But after all the talk, I didn't expect that the other party had already negotiated the price, and in the end I bought the best donkey on the spot for 72 grams.

The donkey owner looked at the money in his hand, his brain still hadn't reacted. Didn't he say nine taels at the beginning?

Watching them walking around, sometimes wanting this one, sometimes wanting that one, he became a little anxious to sell his donkey, and without realizing it, he lowered the price.

But these seven taels of silver are not bad, it's just a pity that I didn't sell it at a high price.

In short, there is no need to run here to bask in the sun every day.

Zhou Mingshu picked up a handful of grass from the roadside and fed it to the donkey as he walked. Compared with the previous few days, the little donkey looked a little tired, and its fur was a little wrinkled.

"Haha, grandma, what do you think of this little donkey?"

"Yes, this donkey is the youngest and best looking one."

"Grandma, did you and uncle and dad discuss this in advance? How come you work so well together?"

"Haha, that's not the case. It's their fault for wandering around and not being able to bargain with me. Otherwise, it could be a little lower. Haha."

"Mom, this is how we bought the cattle. These sellers are very good at bargaining. If you don't do this, the price won't go down at all. They sell their cattle here every day. Those who are familiar with them have become brothers. Their friendship is deeper than that of us buyers. The price has been agreed upon long ago."

"That's right. I think seven taels will do. We gave a little more."

Zhou Laoer smiled, thinking that he had made some concessions. If he continued to bargain for a while, maybe the price could really be lowered to seven taels.

Zhou Mingshu nodded. So that's how it is.

"Little donkey, follow me from now on and I'll make sure you have delicious food and spicy drinks."

The group chatted and laughed, leading the donkey slowly forward.

"Grandma, if we have a donkey, we need a donkey cart. Can't we use it to pull wheat during the autumn harvest in a few days?"

"You don't need to tell me that. We are going to buy a car and then buy food."

"OK."

The carts are very cheap, they are all fine work done by carpenters, and there are no middlemen to make a profit from the difference.

Old Mrs. Zhou picked out a larger cart to harness the little donkey, and the total cost of the donkey and the cart was eight taels of silver.
