As Mrs. Xu's movements became lighter, the cows gradually calmed down.

"Hey, the milk is coming out, the milk is coming out." Seeing the cow secreting milk, Mrs. Xu shouted happily twice.

Then, Mrs. Xu slowly got used to it, and she squeezed out more and more milk. When the bucket was already half full, Shen Wanning shouted, "Alright, that's enough, that's enough."

Others were also eager to try. Shi Zhenxiang rubbed her hands and said, "Wan Ning, I want to try it too, okay?"

Shen Wanning laughed. "It's almost milked out. How about this? If you want to try again, come back later. Anyone who wants to try can try it in the next few days. When I buy a cow later, I will hire two people to milk it. I'll milk it three times a day, and the daily salary will be forty coins."

"Great, then I'll come back later. As we agreed, I'll squeeze in today, so don't compete with me!" Shi Zhenxiang said happily, pointing at everyone.

"Then... then I'll come and squeeze in tomorrow morning." Aunt Niu quickly replied.

The others also agreed on a time, and when they walked to the front yard, their families were already waiting there for them to go home for dinner.

"Xiaoshu, it's already this late, why don't you stay and have dinner with us? After dinner, we'll go to town together. I still need to buy some things." Shen Wanning tried to persuade him to stay.

"Okay, then I won't be polite." Xiaoshu smiled innocently and had lunch with them.

Shen Wanning had seen what netizens had said when she was milking. Netizens told her that she had to disinfect the cow's nipples before milking, and then disinfect her hands before milking the cow.

In today's world, there seemed to be no such thing as disinfection. Experienced doctors sometimes used strong liquor to disinfect wounds, which reminded her of iodine or alcohol.

In this era, it is better to use alcohol. She added ten bottles of alcohol to the grid below the live broadcast room.

Just as she finished adding the alcohol, someone sent it to her.

After lunch, they found Tie Niu to take them to town. They first took Xiao Shu to the carriage and paid for his carriage. Then Shen Wanning, Lin Jingce, and Lin Jingcheng went to the livestock market together.

The three of them had never seen a horse except in a carriage, so they had no idea how to choose a horse.

Fortunately, the netizen who had claimed to be from Meng Province was watching the livestream. He asked Shen Wanning to check the horse's eyes for spirit, its head for squareness, and so on.

Shen Wanning paused for a moment before each horse, allowing netizens to see its appearance clearly. When she reached the last horse, the man from Meng Province became excited.

Evil Designer: Host, host, this is the one, the best. It's not as good as my horse, but it's the best of them all. This horse is strong and healthy, and looks to be only two or three years old. This one is worth buying.

Lin Jingcheng walked up to her and asked quietly, "Wan Ning, do you know how to choose a horse? They all look the same to me, so I really can't tell which one is better."

Looking at Lin Jingce's sad face, you can tell that he doesn't know how to choose a horse either.

"Don't worry, brother. Just look at me and I'll pick the best horse."

Shen Wanning first pointed at a horse at random: "Boss, how much is this horse?"

The boss smiled flatteringly, "Oh, this young lady has a good eye. This is the best horse in our livestock business. The price is not expensive, only forty taels."

Lin Jingce sighed, "This horse is so expensive? It's more expensive than a cow!"

"Sir, you can't say that. Cows are used for farming, but horses are used by rich families, so of course they are more expensive." The boss's words were secretly flattering them again.

"Can it be cheaper?" Lin Jingcheng asked.

"How about this, I'll give you a fair price, thirty-eight taels, which is already the lowest price. You can't buy it for lower. My horse is a good purebred." The boss touched his horse and said proudly.

"Boss, you are not honest. I saw a better horse in the county town, and it only cost thirty taels. Your price is too expensive. Forget it, let's go to the county tomorrow!" Shen Wanning pretended to feel sorry and shook her head, motioning to Lin Jingce and the others to leave.

The boss caught up with him and said through gritted teeth, "Thirty-five taels, this is already the lowest price. It really can't be any lower. We are just a small business, we don't make any money."

"Oh, what a pity, thirty-five taels is still too expensive for us. Forget it, we can't afford the best horse, so let's just buy the inferior one!" After saying that, Shen Wanning pointed to the last horse.

The boss was stunned and said, "That horse costs forty taels. I won't sell it without forty taels."

"Huh? The boss just said that horse was the best, and the best horse only cost thirty-five taels. Why is this inferior horse forty taels? Boss, you're running a shady business! You think we know nothing, so you're just giving us a random price to fool us!"

Shen Wanning deliberately spoke loudly, and people who came to buy livestock gathered around and pointed at the boss.

"This boss just took advantage of the fact that this little girl doesn't know anything about horses and deliberately cheated her out of her money!"

"What? Is there such a thing? I will never buy livestock from this store again. I'd better go to the county to buy it, otherwise I will be cheated out of money one day without knowing it."

"He's done this before. I already knew it. Are you new here?"

Seeing the other chicken and duck vendors staring at him, the horse dealer gritted his teeth and said, "Alright, alright, then thirty-four taels, one tael less than the best horse."

Shen Wanning smiled and said, "Thank you very much, boss. I will definitely come back next time if I have the chance."

After saying that, she took out some silver from her sleeve, handed over the money with one hand, and left with the horse in the other.

After buying the horses, they prepared to go to the carpenter to see if there was any ready-made carriage.

On the way, Lin Jingcheng asked his doubts, "Wan Ning, how do you know which horse is the best?"

"Yes, Wan Ning, we don't know anything about horses. Did you learn this from a book?" Lin Jingce was also confused.

Shen Wanning smiled and said, "That's not the case. I just noticed that the grass that horse ate was slightly better than the other horses. And when I walked up to the horse, the boss kept staring at me.

Besides, the boss just now kept leading me to the horse I pointed to, and I knew that it was not a good horse, and might even be the worst one. "

Lin Jingcheng gave a thumbs up. "Sure enough, Mom is right. Wan Ning is the smartest. If we two brothers were to go out and buy horses, we would probably be cheated by the boss and buy the worst horses."

Shen Wanning blushed, feeling a little embarrassed. How could she be so good? It was clearly the netizens who were so good.
