Chapter 359 Skinny Horse
Chapter 359 Skinny Horse
Suddenly, Qi Rui had an idea and he seemed to have understood a truth.
In the book, Monkey King protected Monk Tang on his journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures and they went through many hardships before obtaining the true scriptures.
But now he is ready to fight to the death after just a little setback. He is far worse than Monkey King.
Thinking of this, Qi Rui rolled over and sat up from the bed.
Once your brain opens up, it's really opened up.
I thought to myself that I was also killing enemies on the battlefield and licking blood on the edge of a knife in the past, so how could I be tripped up by such a thing.
He still needs to find an opportunity to talk more with Mingshu.
Everything should be discussed before it can be solved. If you keep sulking, you won't get anything done.
Qi Rui threw away the Journey to the West in his hand and listed out those "domineering boss's storybooks".
He had never liked anyone before and had no experience in this area. He was surrounded by a group of singles and had no way to ask others for advice.
I had no choice but to study it all night long, absorb the experience, and see how others express their love.
Three or four days have passed since I finished reading all the storybooks.
Just when Qi Rui was confident that he was ready, he discovered that Ming Shu had not come to the restaurant for several days.
He took Rufeng to have a simple meal in the restaurant and then returned to the military defense camp.
If the mountains don't come, I'll go to them, and I'll go to the mountains.
Qi Rui made up his mind to go to Lianglin Village to look for someone early tomorrow morning.
But it was really unfortunate that Zhou Mingshu went to the county town today.
Because there was a happy event at home a few days ago, Zhou Mingjie and Zhou Mingyuan took several days off.
After resting for a few days, it was time to go back to school.
Most of the family members were too busy to see them off, so they had to ask Zhou Mingshu and an uncle from the village to go.
It's good to have someone to take care of them on the way, and when I come back I can also help them buy some rare things.
After sending the two little ones to school, Zhou Mingshu and his uncle drove the donkey cart to the market.
After two turns, the donkey cart was full.
Before leaving, she suggested going to the horse market to have a look, and if there were any good horses, she would buy one.
The horse market in the county town is bigger than the one in Jinmiao Town, and there are more choices.
When the uncle heard that Zhou Mingshu wanted to buy a horse, his eyes lit up.
"Saya, you are amazing. You can ride a horse at such a young age."
"Haha, I learned it slowly from others. It will be more convenient for me to travel in the future."
In terms of means of transportation, horses have a higher status than cows and donkeys.
After leaving the donkey cart in front of a shop, the two men entered the horse market.
Although there are not many horses, there are still about 20 of them.
There is still a lot of room for choice.
According to the system's prompt, Zhou Mingshu took a fancy to a skinny horse with yellow and brown fur.
It can be seen that the horse is not very old and has a good figure, but is a little thin.
And its owner is the same, skinny.
"Master, how much do you want to sell this horse?"
The man held out his hand and held up a "seven". It seemed that the price of the horse was seventy taels.
"But why is this horse so thin? There is grass everywhere on the roadside. It shouldn't be like this if it just eats a lot. Is it sick?"
The host shook his head, his face full of sorrow.
"I don't know what's going on. No matter how healthy they are, they just can't eat well. It's not just the horses, it's the same for the family members as well."
Zhou Mingshu tentatively reached out her hand and touched the horse, and it was just as she thought, it could be cured.
"Master, your horse is so sick. I have to take it home and give it medicine. This will take time and money. Can you give it a lower price?"
"This……"
The man hesitated for a moment and felt that what Zhou Mingshu said made some sense.
"Girl, do you really want this, or are you just asking for fun?"
He really wanted to buy it, but he was afraid that the girl in front of him didn't really want to buy it!
This horse has been with him in the horse market for more than 10 to 20 days, but few people have asked about it. They all think it is a sick horse.
"Of course I really bought it. If I didn't, why would I ask so carefully?"
"Okay, I feel relieved after hearing your words. I'll give you a discount. How about 65? 5 taels can sell a lot of meat."
This person lowered the price on his own initiative and felt very painful.
Five ounces is enough for a family to consume for a year.
"Uncle, can you just give me five taels off? What's the difference between that and seventy taels? Don't forget that this is a sick horse."
The man gritted his teeth and said, "Sixty taels, sixty taels should be enough."
Zhou Mingshu remained calm, saying that sixty taels of silver was still too high.
"Uncle, I can only give you fifty taels at most. If you agree, I will pay you the money right away. After I give you the reins, whether the horse lives or dies will no longer be your concern. In addition, I will give you a pack of snacks I just bought from the store. What do you think?"
A few people watching the fun nearby looked over and wondered what was going on.
Buy a horse and get free snacks?
Would I still be interested in a bag of snacks from you even if I sold my horse?
But the horse in front of me doesn’t look very good. If the horse dies, it will be worthless.
The people around also suggested to the horse seller that it would be better to sell it as soon as possible so that the money can be put in pocket and they can feel at ease.
The man thought about it and realized that this was the case.
"Okay, I agree. I'll give you the horse, but forget about the snacks you mentioned. I already have fifty taels, but I'm still short of a few coins for the snacks."
"Then come with me to get the money."
Zhou Mingshu led the horse and returned to the donkey cart with his uncle from the same village.
The three of them drove a carriage and rode horses to the silver shop. Zhou Mingshu took out the silver and paid it to the horse seller, thus settling the transaction.
"Uncle, take this pack of snacks. I just bought them from the shop in front. They are still warm."
The man smiled and said no, but Zhou Mingshu still stuffed it into his hand.
"Uncle, I sprinkled some medicine powder on this snack. There is nothing wrong with the snack. What's special about it is the medicine powder. It will ensure that you can sleep well and enjoy your meal."
Zhou Mingshu said no more, patted the man on the shoulder and mounted his horse.
Whether he eats it or not depends on his luck.
She rode a horse, and her uncle from the same village drove a donkey cart, and they left the county town one after the other.
"San Ya, you must have already figured out that this horse has a disease that you can cure."
An uncle from the same village participated in the entire process of buying the horse. He saw that San Ya was very confident that she could buy the horse at such a low price.
"Haha, yes, uncle, there are worms in the horse's body. I'll prescribe some medicine for it and it will be fine after a while."
"insect?"
The man's face shook. This was too terrifying.
The seller was as skinny as the horse, with dark circles under his eyes. Could it be that he had bugs on his body too?
Oh my god, he got goosebumps all over his body after hearing it, it was so scary.
No wonder San Ya insisted on giving him a packet of medicine powder.
Then it’s really worth selling it for fifty taels.
Not only did he sell the horse, but his family member's illness was also cured, which was a good thing.
