The Reborn Wife is Farming

Chapter 40 Bartering (Part 2)

Mu Yangling motioned them to look at her rabbit, and said, "My father went into the mountains to hunt these rabbits this morning. Each rabbit weighs two catties of new cotton."

"Can you play so much in one morning?"

Mu Yang's heart skipped a beat, and he bowed his head in embarrassment: "The trap was set up in advance, and there are a lot of people in the family, so there will be one, because they are still in the mountains, so I can only sell them, so that I can buy some cotton for money. Waiting for things, it's just that it takes a long time to set up a stall, and you have to pay a lot of taxes, so..."

Several shopkeepers understood, and one sighed: "The commercial tax is heavy again, and I don't know if the store will be able to continue to open in the spring of next year."

Mu Yangling's eyebrows twitched. The business tax is heavy again?

"I don't have any money. It would be nice to exchange it with cotton. I'll take a look at your rabbits and choose one to give to the children at home as a tooth-beating sacrifice."

This is the first time Mu Yangling has done this kind of thing, but these people are familiar with it. There are usually peddlers from the countryside who exchange food or other things with them. As long as they can avoid Sihu, everyone is happy to get the goods Barter.

Mu Yangling quickly replaced four more rabbits, inspected the new cotton they brought, stuffed it into the bag he brought, and carried it on his back.

Seeing that Mu Yangling was about to leave, the boss asked, "What else do you want to change, Miss? I think you only have seven or eight rabbits in your back basket."

"My mother is pregnant, and I want to exchange for some blood-enriching things such as brown sugar, red dates, and longan." After speaking, he regretted, "It's a pity that the pharmacy is not owned by the owner, otherwise I would like to go and exchange some medicinal materials."

The boss laughed and said: "The medicinal materials cannot be changed, but these small things are not difficult. Let me tell you, when you walk to the end of this street, there is a grocery store at the left corner. That store is a relative of mine. Family, his family has a large population, and his family is not bad, if you want to change, go there to change, and you will definitely be able to change."

Mu Yangling thanked him, and after leaving the shop, he really went there. There are not many things that need to be bought at home, but there are actually a lot of odds and ends.

When Mu Yangling arrived at the grocery store, he directly explained the purpose of his visit, and said that it was introduced by the boss not far away. He successfully exchanged two rabbits for a lot of red dates and brown sugar, and took a pack of children's favorite food Candy, only then left satisfied.

Mu Yangling went to find his father.

When Mu Shi just came out of the restaurant, the roe deer was gone, more than half of the rabbits were gone, and there were only seven left. Seeing that there were six left at his daughter's place, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's go, let's go to the market to put them on the market." booth."

"Father, I heard that the business tax has increased again."

Mu Shi frowned slightly, "Let's go ask."

The commercial tax has indeed increased, not much. With the scale of the Mu family’s stall, they have to pay an extra five cents a day, which can add up to a lot, especially for ordinary people like them, five cents can do a lot of things up.

But I had to pay it again. If I was found setting up a stall outside, the goods would be confiscated and fined.

Mu Shi took a look at his daughter's exchange, touched her head and said, "Father, let's go to the county seat tomorrow, and you will go there every other day, and you will stay at home to take care of your mother and younger brother. There are ways, but our house is so small and we have limited things to use, so what’s the use of exchanging them? Money is still real.”

Mu Yangling was deflated by what Mu Shi said, and said dejectedly: "I forgot this."

Mu Shi smiled and said: "You are still so young, it is already very good to think of this method."

Mu Yangling was a little frustrated, she's not too young, okay?

The father and daughter sold out the rabbits and bought some millet before returning home.

Mu Shi told his wife about going to the county town, and said: "The town can't consume so many rabbits. From now on, Ah Ling and I will go to the mountains in the morning, and I will go to the county town. She will go to the town to deliver goods to restaurants and restaurants, but only half an hour. Shichen will be able to return home, and when she comes back, don’t let her go into the mountains, just let her take her younger brother to play in the village.”

Shu Wanniang nodded hastily, "Let her learn some sewing from me, she won't be able to learn these things after she gets married."

"Okay, let her play for an hour and study for an hour in the afternoon."

The two of them decided on Mu Yangling's daily study time in the future.

However, Mu Yangling also had a plan for himself. He went into the mountain in the morning and left the mountain at ten o'clock in the morning. He delivered things to the town and came back, and it only took an hour to go back and forth.

I can play with my younger brother for an hour, and then go home for dinner. In the afternoon, I can take them to catch fish and roast rabbits, and I can also go to the mountain valley to play games. I promise that teaching Liu Ting to read is also on the agenda...

Mu Yangling suddenly thought of his great aunt, so he turned over, his eyes were shining brightly, just in time, he was worrying that he didn't have time to find Goddess Laoshizi, now he will have time.

Mu Yangling chuckled, even if he couldn't help the auntie take back the land, at least it would make her life in Xishan Village easier.

Mu Yangling determined his future goals, got up early the next morning, covered his younger brother with a quilt, got up to wash up, and followed his father into the mountains.

Because they were entering the county, the father and daughter no longer held back their skills, and shot as many rabbits as possible.

There are indeed many rabbits in the mountains. As long as you go deeper, you can find two rabbit nests within a hundred steps. Mu Yangling sealed a nest and smoked the rabbits out with smoke. This method is faster than shooting with arrows. She picked a dozen and threw them into the sack, and let the younger ones go.

"Father, do you want to bring some small ones into the city? I heard that the ladies and young masters in the county are much more delicate than the towns, so they like to raise them. Anyway, when you go to the city, you are looking for rabbits from restaurants and restaurants. How about Bring a few more small ones, and give them back to the stewards of restaurants and restaurants, let them take them back to play with their children, or for their young masters to play with?"

"Rabbits are dirty. Who would like to play with them? I've only heard of eating rabbits and raising horses and cats, but I haven't heard of raising rabbits."

Mu Yangling was not convinced, "Rabbits are much cuter than cats."

Mu Shi picked up a rabbit, "Can those ladies hold such a fat rabbit? I don't think your mother likes raising rabbits, but she has thought about raising cats."

For Mu Shi, his wife's aesthetics are much more reliable than his daughter's, at least his wife used to be a daughter, daughter?

Well, not being humble as a dad, this kid is a wild kid running all over the mountains, more like a boy than a boy.

Mu Yangling could have been dispensable at first, but seeing that her father didn't trust her, she ran away and found another rabbit nest. This time she left without letting go of the little ones, and put them together in a sack. He said: "If you are still alive in the county, you can take it out and give it away alone. Dad, you heard me right. Many little girls and young masters like to raise rabbits. Rabbits are so cute. You can see that your son is very happy to raise them. "

"That's because your brother has nothing to raise. You can buy him a horse and see if he wants a rabbit."

Mu Yangling stomped his feet, "Is that comparable? A horse costs eighty taels of silver, and a rabbit costs eighty renminbi. If you want me to like horses, I don't like rabbits."

Seeing that his daughter was angry, Mu Shi didn't dare to be angry with her anymore, and promised, "Okay, Dad will remember, and I will give it to those shopkeepers or owners when I enter the city."

Only then was Mu Yangling satisfied.
