152 Buy cattle
However, Brother Niu actually accepted other people's money, and they couldn't get it back.
When it comes to the issue of dividing money, several people almost started to argue.
Niu Dali felt that the day before yesterday, he did not take action against the bandits, so the 120 taels were divided by Wang Shihu and seven others.
But Wang Shihu and the other seven disagreed, saying that they would divide the money together, otherwise the money would be separated and Niu Dali would keep it.
Niu Dali could not resist Wang Shihu and the other two, so he had to agree.
Because he had obtained a surprise fortune for no reason, the few people were filled with joy on their faces and surrounded the table, drinking and talking while drinking, especially Yang Zi often mentioned the story of capturing bandits the day before yesterday.
This time, Li Xianglan, Da Ya and Er Ya did not serve the table for dinner. After all, the big men here were bragging about the bull and making a little noise. Niu Dali asked Li Xianglan to serve some vegetables in the side room.
"I understand, you'll catch the most bandits!" Wang Shihu said with a smile.
"Wrong, wrong!" Yang Zi shook his head, "What we should thank most is Brother Niu. If Brother Niu hadn't taught us martial arts, how could we have the scenery we had the night before yesterday!"
As he said that, Yang Zi stood up and toasted Niu Dali.
When they heard this, the few people nodded and stood up to toast.
Niu Dali didn't refuse to raise his glass to return to the toast.
"When talking about this, the one who didn't feel most unhappy about me was Aunt Zhou during the day." Yang Zi said angrily: "We didn't hurt their cow again. Why did the cow be scared by us? He couldn't use it as a ox cart and asked Brother Niu to pay dozens of taels, even if he bought a new cow, it would cost a lot of money!"
"If Brother Niu hadn't told me about this, we wouldn't have known it yet?"
Niu Dali shook his head helplessly.
In fact, Uncle Lao Gen is indeed quite good, but his wife Zhou is not very good.
The night before yesterday, after Wang Shihu and seven others captured the bandits alive, they were anxious to report to the official and placed Uncle Lao Gen's cow in the stork building. Until yesterday, when Wang Shihu returned, he took the ox cart back to the village.
It was nothing at first, but at noon, Zhou actually came to ask them to compensate, saying that her Niu was frightened the night before yesterday, and that she refused to eat grass for two days and refused to pull people, saying that Niu Dali had to pay dozens of taels.
Later, Uncle Lao Gen led his three sons over in time, scolded Zhou, and apologized to Niu Dali.
Uncle Lao Gen is kind and reasonable. He said that the cow was really frightened and didn't eat grass when he first came back, but it was fine the next day, and it was fine. It was fine to recruit people.
Although nothing happened, it did cause the Niu from Uncle Lao Gen's family to be frightened. Niu Dali still asked Li Xianglan to take out forty cents as compensation.
It’s not that he refused to give more copper coins, but that he was afraid that if he gave too much, Zhou would feel that there was little. After all, human nature is greedy, and the more he gave, the less satisfied the person would be.
And forty-four-money is considered a reasonable range.
Uncle Lao Gen felt that the cow at home was fine, so why did he have the nerve to accept the forty documents and quickly refused.
In the end, it was Niu Dali, Li Xianglan, and Zhou's eyes were so bright that Uncle Lao Gen barely took forty folks and left.
Wang Shihu thought for a while and said, "Brother Niu, why don't we pay some money and buy a cow and come back to pick up the goods. This is also convenient, so there is no need to borrow cows from Uncle Lao Gen."
Yang Zi and the other six thought about it and nodded. After Zhou came to the door to ask for compensation, they really dared not borrow cattle from Uncle Lao Gen in the future.
Moreover, they will go up the mountain to hunt and buy cattle to help them send prey to the town in the future.
Although the price of a big yellow cow is not low, with Brother Niu, I believe that the silver you buy for cows will be made back soon. Moreover, buying cows is not only used as ox carts, but also used to cultivate the land.
What's more, Liu Fugui was shocked by the silver, which was enough to buy a cow and came back.
In fact, even if Wang Shihu doesn’t mention it, Niu Dali still has the idea of buying a cow.
And this idea came up a long time ago, but at that time, I bought a cow not long after I built the house, which would make others discuss it, which was delayed.
Moreover, he bought cows not just to transport prey to the town. Sometimes their family can ride cows to the town if they have something to do, right?
However, Niu Dali did not support Wang Shihu's suggestion of buying a cow together.
After all, it is easy to have differences in the things that are together. Although we buy cows to transport prey to the town in the future, whoever is responsible for the cow, who will take care of them, whoever uses more and whoever uses less will cause a series of contradictions.
"We took too much advantage from our elder brother before, and asked us to teach us how to practice martial arts. We can pay the money for a few of us." Fan Zhongyun said.
"I agree with this!" Yang Zi nodded.
Wang Shihu and others had no objection, but Niu Dali disagreed, "What are you paying for? No one of you has to pay for the money you buy Niu, I will pay the money alone!"
"This won't work!"
Wang Shihu and the other seven refused, saying that they had to pay the money together.
"I bought it from home, and it's a matter of picking up goods." Niu Dali waved his hand and said with a close eye: "You have to save money and marry a wife and buy land. I don't need it. Don't argue with me, otherwise you don't recognize me as the eldest brother, nor do you recognize me as the senior brother."
Wang Shihu and the seven men looked at each other, their eyes full of bitter smiles and helplessness. They all said this, how dare they refuse?
They once again realized Brother Niu's honesty and honesty, and they hoped that they would suffer losses rather than let their brothers suffer losses.
What I said for my own use is obviously because I wanted them to feel good.
move
If you have a brother like this, what else can you ask for?
Good brother!!
oo
If Niu Dali knew what Wang Shihu and the other two were thinking at this moment, he would definitely shout, "I really bought it from home."
At night, Niu Dali told Li Xianglan about buying a cow. Li Xianglan was a little hesitant. Although she spent a lot of money on building a house some time ago, there were still more than 200 taels left at home, which was enough to buy a big yellow cow.
But Li Xianglan was still reluctant to spend so much money to buy a cow and felt that it was unnecessary.
But Niu Dali had already thought of refusing, and Li Xianglan was speechless when she said the benefits of buying cows, and she even made some calculations for Li Xianglan.
Every time I catch my prey, I have to borrow a ox cart from Uncle Lao Gen to go to the town. It costs about twenty cents at a time, 20 cents for ten times, and 20 taels for one hundred times, ten years, twenty years, it is better to buy a cow and come back by yourself with this money.
In the future, it would be convenient for them to go to the town to buy things, so they would not have to squeeze in a ox cart with many people.
What's more, cattle can not only be used to transport contemporary tools, but also cultivate land.
Li Xianglan thought about it and felt that Brother Dali’s statement was not unreasonable, but after careful consideration, she felt something was wrong.
But when the two girls heard that their family wanted to buy cows, Da Ya didn't react much, but Er Ya was so excited that her face turned red, and she acted coquettishly and encouraged her to buy cows.
