Fang Nanzhi's eyes lit up and he quickly put away all the beads.

"Stop playing, stop playing. I'm going to open the door."

If I continue playing, I will owe more words, woo woo.

The little girl ran to open the door, and as soon as she opened it, she was shocked by the scene in front of her.

Not only did Dad come back, he was also leading a black and white animal with big eyes and a long, thin tail that was gently swaying, looking a little uneasy.

Fang Nanzhi had never seen this kind of creature before. It was black and white. He was stunned. What was this?

The animal seemed a little flustered by the crowd and mooed.

Fang Nanzhi's eyes lit up. Wow, it's the same sound as the old yellow cow in the village?

There were many villagers following behind, and it was very lively.

Everyone looked jealous and envious, and someone curiously asked, "Old Third, where did you get this cow?"

Some people looked at the cows eagerly, then realized something was wrong and asked with some doubt: "You are a dairy cow, not a working cow. What's the point of bringing you back?"

Having said that, the man still couldn't help but want to touch it.

The cow was already feeling uneasy because so many people were watching it. After being touched, it started to get scared and was about to get scared.

The next second, the hand was slapped away.

Fang Tong stood in front of the cow without hesitation, isolating everyone from the crowd: "Go away, don't touch it. This is my cow. If you scare it, you will have to pay for it."

Fang Tong led the cow into the house under the envious gazes of the crowd. When he saw his daughter, his tone changed, becoming much gentler: "Zhizhi, go get a basin and fill it with water for the cow."

Fang Nanzhi had a lot of questions in his mind, but when he heard it, he glanced at the cow and immediately trotted to get some water.

She came back quickly, and when she looked again, the cow was tied up at the warehouse door.

The little girl was holding a basin of water in her hand, looking at the cow that was several times bigger than her, breathing heavily through her nostrils, and she felt inexplicably nervous.

Isn't this cow good at fighting?

The cow looked down at her.

She looked up at the cow.

The man and the cow looked at each other. Fang Nanzhi held the basin and cautiously stretched out his feet. He looked at the cow again. It just shook its tail without any other reaction. Then he took two small steps forward.

The cow glanced at her and still didn't move.

Only then did Fang Nanzhi muster up the courage to go over and put the basin on the ground.

"Moo!" The cow suddenly poked its head forward with two sounds, and the little girl was so scared that she jumped back.

He ran four or five meters away before looking back.

The cow still stood there, just looked at the timid human with strangeness and contempt, then continued to lower its head to smell the water bowl, stuck out its tongue and started drinking water.

Fang Nanzhi was a little embarrassed, but she pretended to be brave and quietly moved closer, stretching out her little hand tentatively.

The cow that was drinking water raised its eyelids to look at her, then continued drinking.

This action undoubtedly made the little girl bolder. She touched it lightly and the warm touch made her feel novel.

The little girl became happy and coaxed softly, "Niuniu, drink quickly!"

The cow was very aloof and ignored her.

Fang Nanzhi didn't mind. She put her two little hands into her arms and squatted beside it to watch it drink water.

Niu Niu's eyelashes are so long and beautiful.

When she grows up, her eyelashes will grow longer, at least as long as Niu Niu's! Beautiful!

Fang Tong glanced at his daughter and let her play with the cow.

I went to the door and boasted to the group of people who were there to join in the fun.

"This cow, not everyone can get it." Erwa, who came back with the cow, said proudly, "We got it from one of our buddies."

The villagers were puzzled: "Who is your buddy? He can afford to raise cattle. Is he a wealthy family?"

Fang Tong said proudly: "My brother is a broker."

The brothers talked to each other, and everyone finally understood what was going on.

The dental clinic bought about ten cows this year, but unfortunately due to the famine, the cows were basically unsellable.

This is not a big deal. If you keep it for a year or two, there will always be a market.

But some time ago, it rained heavily for a long time and two cows became sick. The dental clinic had to raise the cows separately to prevent the disease from developing into plague.

But because of the recent famine, the cattle trading business had recruited a lot of people, some of whom came to sell themselves, and some of whom sold their children. There were so many people that there was really no place to raise the cows separately.

The matter was reported to the government office, but there has been no response.

"If it weren't for my buddy's connections, how could ordinary people rent this cow?" Fang Tong held his head high and chest out, like a victorious rooster.

"The third brother is awesome!" Zhao Dashan gave him a thumbs up.

Many people responded. They originally thought that Fang Tong's brothers were just idle thugs, but they didn't expect that this guy actually had some useful connections.

"Speaking of which, you rented this cow. How much silver did you get?"

Someone was clever and had an idea.

However, he planned to rent a draft ox for ten days or half a month, plant his own winter wheat on it, and then return it. That would save a lot of effort.

"Seventy wen a month."

“Wow, so expensive!”

Everyone changed their minds again.

Oh my god, how long can this much money a month provide for the whole family?

They thought Fang Tong was reliable for once, but when they heard the price, they immediately felt that they had been taken advantage of.

Tiezhu just said that if you spend money to rent a cow and take it home, you have to cut grass every day to take good care of the cow, and you have to sign documents. If the cow gets sick or loses weight, you still have to pay compensation to the dental clinic. This is not cost-effective!

"That's too much of a loss, Third Brother. Why would you rent a dairy cow? You can't even use it in the fields."

Otherwise they can borrow it.

In response, Fang Tong put his hands on his hips and said, "Scalpers are so rare, it's strange that they can be rented out."

Everyone thought so.

I'm no longer jealous now. I just think Fang Tong is crazy. His family can't even afford to eat, yet he still spends so much money to rent a cow that can't work. Who can afford to raise such a cow?

"Fang Tong, we're not saying anything bad about you, but you're really a bit of a spendthrift. Aren't you afraid that your wife will dislike you? It's a good thing you're not my son-in-law."

Lu raised his eyelids and acted arrogantly.

Even if the cows were not stolen, renting them out is not something that these peasants can do.

Qian Fengping ran back almost at the same time as her, but she was weak and had been panting for a long time. Now she subconsciously said to protect him, "He's my man, there's no need for you to despise him."

Fang Tong puffed out his chest even higher.

He put his hands on his hips and shouted at them, "Go away! Don't you care about your family's conditions? It's not your family's turn for me to marry into your family! Go away, don't look at me anymore. Have you finished the work in the fields?"

After saying that, he pulled Qian Niang into the yard and closed the door.

Well...the brothers who helped rent the cows were also separated outside.

After the excitement wore off, everyone dispersed on their own, after all, they still had plenty of work to do.

"Did this cow really cost seventy cents?"

Facing Qian Fengping's puzzled look, Fang Tong said, "Come on, let's go inside and talk."

After the family entered the house and closed the door, Fang Tong explained, "The rent isn't that expensive, only thirty cents a month. I have connections, otherwise, most people wouldn't be able to afford it."
