Farmer's wife: My wife is a bit wild

Chapter 18 Third Hand Goods

Lu Qingyan was at a loss.

He has heard of tea, milk, and milk wine, but he has never heard of milk tea.

He asked, "What is milk tea?"

Su Ran's little tail instantly turned up, "Hee hee, don't you know that?!"

As she said that, she stood up with a small face of pride and continued:
"Oh, actually, milk tea is not a very unusual thing, it's a combination drink of milk and tea."

Lu Qingyan nodded in confusion, and asked again, "So, you want the ten taels of silver to buy cows?"

Su Ran was shocked by his extremely witty brain circuit.

Her small mouth, which was about to explain how to make milk tea to Lu Qingyan, froze suddenly.

After a long while, I asked awkwardly, "You, how do you know?"

Lu Qingyan didn't speak.

He went straight back to his Westinghouse, took out the ten tael silver note and handed it to Su Ran, "Here."

Su Ran's little paws hovered between accepting money and not accepting money.

You said, if she took it...

It seemed that she was going to ask him for money on purpose.

After all, this money was the one she had just agreed to keep in his custody this morning.

I guess it's not warmed up yet.

But if she doesn't answer.

Then she would have no money to buy cows...

Oops, so tangled.

Lu Qingyan saw that she hadn't received the bank note, and asked, "Why, don't you want to buy cows?"

Su Ran's little head instantly lifted up, and said, "I want to!"

As he spoke, he couldn't help but took the bank note.

The corners of Lu Qingyan's lips twitched slightly.

He leaned over to take the bowls and chopsticks on the table and cleaned them.

Su Ran took all the leftover meals into the dilapidated small kitchen cabinet.

After packing up everything that needed to be packed, Lu Qingyan went back to his West Room to read.

During the day he has to be busy with the work in the field, so he can only study at night.

Su Ran followed him to the door and said, "That..."

She was hesitating, and Lu Qingyan knew that there was something else going on when she heard it.

He turned to look at her and asked, "Is there anything else?"

Su Ran scratched her little head, and said with some embarrassment, "Well, can you go buy cows with me tomorrow."

Lu Qingyan was slightly taken aback.

In the past, Su Ran was never willing to go out with him because he was "ugly", but today, she took the initiative to ask him out?
Lu Qingyan didn't answer.

Su Ran explained, "Don't get me wrong, I just don't know much about cows, I want you to help me choose them together!"

Lu Qingyan understood what she meant.

It turned out that he was asked to...

Anyway, she bought the cows to make money for the family, so he should go with her.

Thinking about it, Lu Qingyan looked up at her and said, "Okay."

After speaking, he closed the door of his west room.

Su Ran was ruthlessly shut the door, "..."

That's all, for the sake of his willingness to help him pick cows, forgive his rudeness.

You also have to go to the town to buy cows.

In order to get up early tomorrow, Su Ran went to bed early at night.

The next day.

At four o'clock in the morning, the sky was still dark, but Su Ran had already woken up.

Maybe it was because she was too excited to buy cows, but she couldn't sleep anymore.

She put on her clothes, went down to the kang to freshen up, and then made breakfast.

Before Lu Qingyan woke up, she made breakfast first, and he could eat it directly after he got up.

In other words, before her breakfast was ready, Lu Qingyan had already walked out of the Westinghouse.

Su Ran looked at him slightly startled, "You, you got up so early?"

Lu Qingyan glanced at her lightly, "You're early too!"

After speaking, he went to the yard.

The sky was slightly brighter, but still a little groggy.

While Lu Qingyan was washing up, Su Ran's breakfast was already cooked.

For breakfast, Su Ran re-boiled porridge with the leftover rice from last night.

The two drank some porridge briefly, and then set foot on the road to the town.

At this time, it was not yet 5 o'clock in the morning.

Although it was already dawn, there were very few people on the road.

The old man Chen who drives the ox cart has not started work yet.

The two walked to the town on foot.

This also saves Su Ran from wasting brain cells thinking about how to persuade Lu Qingyan to walk to the town.

It was only a little past six o'clock when the two arrived in town.

Lu Qingyan first took Su Ran to the bank in the town to exchange the banknotes for silver, and then took her to a cattle farm in the west of the town.

There are a lot of cattle in the cattle ranch, bulls and cows of all kinds.

Lu Qingyan found a cow husband and asked him to help choose a cow that was in lactation.

The cowman came to the cow farm in a hurry, picked out a strong and strong mature cow and led it out.

The cowman introduced the cow to the two in detail.

Lu Qingyan also inspected the cow carefully.

Last night, he asked the dark guard to inquire about the market price of cows outside and how to select cows.

The cow selected by the cowman was indeed good, so he asked the price, "How much is this cow?"

Niu Fu giggled and said, "I think the little brother is also a local, so I won't go around with you anymore. If you want it, you can pay 5 taels of silver, and you can just take it away."

The cows in Tianqi Kingdom are sold according to the number of mature ones, and the average cows are between 5 taels and 7 taels of silver.

He had seen the state of the cow just now.

The high milk production period of dairy cows is generally 2-3 months, but this cow is obviously in the milk production period of 4-5 months.

At this time, the milk production of the cow has dropped significantly, and this cow is already giving birth for the second time.

The milk production life of dairy cows is generally 4-5 years. It has been two years, and there are still 2-3 years of milk production left.

Because of this, Niu Fu didn't ask for more than 5 taels.

Of course, as far as the current milk production period of this cow is concerned, it is no problem to produce as little as 20 kilograms of milk a day.

Lu Qingyan looked at Su Ran and told her with his eyes that the price was okay.

Su Ran understood what he meant.

She nodded slightly, but turned around the cow again.

The big black eyes in Xingmou turned around.

Then, I heard her say to the cow husband in a calm manner, "Boss, I think your price is not reasonable."

The cow husband frowned slightly, and asked, "What do you think is unreasonable?"

Su Ran, "Your cow has calved twice, right?"

The cow husband nodded in response, "That's right."

Then, he continued, "But this will not affect the cow's milk production in the next year!"

Moreover, if it weren't for the fact that the cow has been producing milk for 2 years, he wouldn't be able to sell it at such a low price.

Su Ran shook her head, "Generally, a cow will start to go downhill in the third year of milk production, which means that the cow at this time has already started to age, and it is much weaker than when it was young. "

"Besides, it's already producing milk for the second time, so it's a third-hand product for us!"

"Boss, you sell the first-hand goods for 5 taels, so you can't sell the third-hand goods at such a high price."

The boss was a little confused by what she said.

What first-hand goods, third-hand goods.

He doesn't know a few hands, he only knows that the quality of his cows is very good.

Moreover, judging from the current state of this cow, there is no problem at all in the first three years of milk production.

He was about to defend himself, but Su Ran continued to say, "It's a good saying, to marry a daughter-in-law, you have to marry a first-hand cow. In my opinion, your third-hand cow is worth two and a half taels of silver at most." .”

"Well, I'll pay you three taels of silver to buy your cow, what do you think?"

Su Ran seemed to speak clearly and logically.

The cowman didn't understand what she meant at first, but he finally understood when she heard that she would pay three taels of silver for his cows.

After working for a long time, this little girl wants to bargain with him!
