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

"Grandma, do you agree to buy the donkey? But you're still short of money, right?" Zhou Mingshu asked uncertainly.

"Of course. Let alone buying a donkey, even if you want to buy a horse, we can buy it for you as long as we have money. But our family is not that wealthy yet."

Old Mrs. Zhou spread her hands and expressed her helplessness. It was not that she didn't want to, but that she didn't have the ability.

"Well, let's wait and see. Let's sell this batch of mugwort paste first. This batch of mugwort paste can be sold for at least ten taels of silver. Let's pay off the family debt first."

Zhou Mingshu thought, it’s just ten taels of silver, not a big deal, when she gets the chance she can do the job and get it done in minutes.

If it wasn't for the sake of being realistic, she would have bought one directly from the system...

In a few minutes, the mood of Lao Zhou's family was up and down. They didn't come up with any solution on the issue of buying a donkey. In the end, they all went to fetch water and wash up. Who doesn't like a stubborn little donkey? !

Old Mrs. Zhou looked up at the stars in the sky, praying for Mr. Zhou's blessing.

Zhou Mingshu was humming a little tune, not affected by the conversation just now. She fiddled with the aromatherapy bamboo tube, picked up the stone on the table and started rubbing it. She had to think of a foolproof plan to get the money to buy the donkey.

As soon as I closed my eyes and opened them again, it was dawn.

Zhou Laoer took the backpack and put the prepared mugwort paste into it.

One person carried two hundred bottles over, and Mr. Chen was so happy that he couldn't stop smiling.

"Oh, I was just worried about today's goods. You guys are really my timely rain. You delivered it just by chance."

"Haha, we have as many as you want. We still have some at home. Just let us know whenever you want some. When we two brothers come over, we can carry them to you, so you don't have to run over there."

Zhou Laoer and Zhou Laosan drank two sips of water and hurried to work, while Chen Sheng and Xu Niangzi carried the backpacks into the warehouse and began to sort and pack them.

With this batch of goods, we don’t have to worry about those vendors coming to buy in bulk. It will be enough for a few days.

Zhou Mingshu silently calculated that these four hundred bottles meant an income of four taels of silver, which brought him one step closer to buying a donkey.

When I have time, I still have to go to the livestock market to find out the market price. Knowing yourself and your enemy will help you win every battle.

This morning, Zhou Mingshu and Old Man Xu have been busy with the mugwort ointment.

When there were fewer people at noon, I finally went out of the counter to drink some tea and rest.

After agreeing with Mr. Xu that she would not stay home for dinner and wanted to go for a walk on the street, she went out with her backpack.

Old Master Xu originally wanted to count out a few copper coins for the little girl, but he gave up when she said she had money.

Zhou Mingshu looked at the food on the street and still had some appetite.

Fried leek dumplings and pork dumplings, the pan is a little black and the oil is also a little black.

The big buns were white and plump, and she couldn't tell what the filling was, so she wasn't interested.

The wonton stall in front is pretty good. It was crowded and very lively. It looks like the food should be good, but I don’t know how long I have to wait in line to get a seat.

Zhou Mingshu touched his nose and decided to go to the market to see the little donkey first.

The livestock market was a little far from the downtown area, and Zhou Mingshu had to work hard to find it.

She was small and short, and after entering the market, no sellers wanted her to look after livestock, so she was free.

She watched cockfighting, rabbits, cattle and sheep. This time she was lucky as she saw someone selling horses.

When I got closer, I saw that it was actually a big Hequ horse. Its fur was completely black with no other colors and was shiny and sleek. It seemed that its owner took very good care of it.

But the price is indeed very expensive. Eighty taels of silver is enough for Zhou Mingshu to work hard for half a year.

A group of grown men kept touching the horses in front of them, and they did not hide their desire to get them, but due to their lack of money, no one took action.

It seems that the effect of horses and vehicles in ancient times is the same as it is in modern times. There is no man who does not love horses, and there is no man who does not love cars.

Zhou Mingshu took a look and left. She wanted to know if there was anyone selling donkeys on the street.

After walking for a long time, they saw a few families selling donkeys at the end of the street. Zhou Mingshu took a fancy to a Jiami donkey. The little donkey had black hair all over its body, like a swallow's. There was a small area of ​​white on its nose, eyes and belly, which looked very beautiful.

There was another bigger donkey next to it. The donkey owner said it was the little donkey's mother.

Now the little donkey is almost one year old and is slowly able to work, so we are looking for an owner for it.

This little donkey costs nine taels of silver, which is within Zhou Mingshu's acceptable price. However, she doesn't know if they are destined to be together, so she will wait for some time before buying it.

Zhou Mingshu also looked at the other donkeys carefully. Their fur color was a bit mixed, their spirits were not very good, and they looked a bit thin. He estimated that they were a bit old. Although the price was cheaper, Zhou Mingshu still chose the younger one and was willing to spend a little more money.

This little donkey is a female donkey with a gentle personality and agile movements. Jami donkeys are suitable for carrying, pulling and riding various tasks in mountainous areas, so it is perfect for her to go home.

Looking at the cows, sheep, rabbits and chickens on the roadside, Zhou Mingshu was thinking about his own ideas.

When she returned to the wonton shop, it was past dinner time and there were not many people in the shop. Zhou Mingshu found an empty seat, sat down and ordered a bowl of wontons.

The wontons were soon served. Zhou Mingshu poured a little vinegar on them and ate a whole bowl with some pickled vegetables. Although they were not as delicious as the Qianlixiang wontons, they were not bad either. After all, there was no chili pepper in that era.

A bowl of wontons cost ten cents. Zhou Mingshu exchanged his points for silver and paid directly without being stingy at all.

The wonton stall owner was stunned. He had run the shop for many years and had seen all kinds of people, but he had never seen such a young girl eating and paying by herself.

When Zhou Mingshu came back, Chen Banxia was still asleep. After listening to her talk about the livestock market for a while, she fell asleep.

Zhou Mingshu had just returned from the livestock market, and all she could think of were the cows, sheep, rabbits, chickens, and donkeys. She really couldn't sleep, so she tossed and turned and dozed off for a while before it was time to get up.

When they returned in the afternoon, Chen Sheng paid the money for the four hundred bottles of mugwort paste to Zhou Laoer, and the group put on their backpacks and went home.

Zhou Mingshu told Zhou Laoer and Zhou Laosan about how he went to the livestock market alone today, which made them laugh and cry.

His San Ya wants a donkey so much that she is crazy.

"Really, Father, Uncle, there is only one donkey that is more suitable for our family. The others are old and sick, and they won't live long after we buy them. We want the small one, which will soon become an adult. It's a bit expensive, but it's the right age."

However, Zhou Laoer and Zhou Laosan's focus is not on this.
