You are not exile, you are clearly traveling!

Chapter 61 Buy, buy, buy!
"Dad, let's go separate ways. I'll buy seasonings, and you can buy grains!"

"No, it's too dangerous!"

Mr. Chen refused without hesitation. Are you kidding me? His daughter is so cute and beautiful. How can he feel relieved if he lets her go shopping alone?
There are so many bad people out there, what should I do if my daughter is bullied?
There are so many liars out there, and my daughter is so innocent, what should I do if I get deceived?
The road on the street is uneven, what should I do if my daughter bumps into it?
Seeing that her father was so determined, Chen Xue didn't say much, knowing that she was doing it for her own good, and to be honest, although she inherited the memory of her predecessor, she still didn't know much about the world.

The two went to buy grain seeds first. Fortunately, it was autumn and winter and the harvest had just been completed, so grain seeds were easy to buy.

Moreover, in case the grain varieties are not suitable for the Southern Barbarians, they plan to buy several kinds and try them one by one to see which one is more suitable for growing in the Southern Barbarians.

It's just that Mr. Chen has no farming experience, so he doesn't know how much grain to buy. Fortunately, Chen Xue was in the countryside in his previous life, so he knows this better.

Even Mr. Chen is a little confused. If he hadn't watched his daughter grow up, he would have thought that he had been left out.

She is obviously a noble lady, a daughter of a wealthy family. How come she knows so much about farming?

He even discussed various matters such as fertilizer and retting with the store owner, and he talked so well that even the store owner almost wanted to become a teacher.

In the end, Chen Xue bought sixty kilograms, twenty kilograms of each kind, more or less. Anyway, it is still far away from Nanman, and there will be many cities on the way. You can still buy it when the time comes. There are too many kinds of grain here. Less, she plans to buy more, so that she can confirm which grain type is more suitable for Nanman and has a higher yield per mu.

In addition, she also plans to grow a batch of food in the space, so that she does not have to worry about food shortage. In fact, she still has several thousand kilograms of food in the space, but she is a hamster, and the more things she can store, the better.

In addition, they also bought a lot of vegetable seeds, which they lacked the most. Although Chen Xue grew some vegetables in the space, there were too few varieties.

And most importantly, chili peppers.

In Chen Xue's previous life, she was a native of Qianzhou. She preferred to eat spicy food. It could be said that she couldn't be happy without spicy food. Without chili pepper, food would have no soul.

Although the people here have Chinese prickly ash, green onion, ginger and garlic, they don't put chili, which makes Chen Xue, who is used to spicy food, suddenly feel unappetizing.

At first, she thought there were no chili peppers in this world, but now she realized that there were many kinds of chili peppers in this world just like her previous life.

It's just that people here basically don't use peppers for cooking. Instead, they regard peppers as a kind of fruit.

Chen Xue was also speechless. She didn't know how strong their taste was before they could treat peppers as fruits.

However, it seems that not all peppers can be used as fruits. Chen Xue only saw big red round bell peppers and long strips that looked like green peppers, but they were not called green peppers.

For Chen Xue, at least three kinds of chili peppers must be used in stir-fries to make the dishes delicious.

Therefore, she took her old father all over the county and finally gathered several kinds of peppers.

After that, I was looking for something to make the hot pot base. In my previous life, it was mostly butter base, but here, beef is very rare, let alone bought to make butter.

Therefore, Chen Xue plans to make a red oil hot pot base. This kind does not require butter, and other oils will do.

However, Chen Xue still has some obsession with beef. In her previous life, she ate the most pork because it was cheap.

Mutton is also good, but it depends on the cooking skills. If it is delicious and not smelly, it is delicious. I don't like duck at all, but chicken is barely acceptable. It depends on how it is cooked.

My favorite thing to eat is beef, and there was a time in my previous life when beef was cheaper than pork.

It's a pity that she hasn't tasted beef before coming here.

But since she was making butter and still wanted to eat beef, Chen Xue decided to try to see if she could buy beef.

"Dad, do you think we can buy some cows?"

One cow is enough for them to eat for half a month, or even a month. Anyway, the space has the function of keeping fresh, so she doesn't worry about it going bad.

Big deal, just exchange a refrigerator from the system, and then exchange a generator.

"Buying a cow?"

Mr. Chen was stunned and immediately understood that his daughter wanted to eat beef. He had bought it several times at home before, and his daughter really liked it.

However, the imperial court prohibited the slaughter and trading of cattle.

Of course, if the cattle died of illness, old age, or accidents, these could be eaten and traded.

Therefore, it is impossible to buy live cattle unless they are about to die of old age or are sick.

But the problem is, things are rare and expensive.

Beef is also loved by aristocratic families. All the beef that appears on the market is bought by aristocratic families, and no one else has a turn.

And the price is too expensive, not something ordinary people can afford.

However, his daughter actually wanted to eat, how could he not be satisfied.

"Go with dad!"

Mr. Chen stopped passers-by, asked for directions, and then took Chen Xue out of the county and came to a small village a few miles outside the county.

The meat brought to the city is quickly robbed, so you can still get it by going directly to the village. Some people who are greedy for money will even sell their own cattle for money.

However, Mr. Chen did not knock on the door immediately to ask if your cow was for sale. This is fine if you have a good temper, but if you have a bad temper, you might hit someone with a hoe.

Master Chen first took Chen Xue around the village as a check-in. He first confirmed who had cows, who had more cows and who had fewer cows...

Fortunately, it is a village. The villagers' yards are not high, so they can see part of the yard and even hear the cows braying.

After a while, Mr. Chen found a target, a dilapidated courtyard, with half of the courtyard wall collapsed, and the sheep pen inside could be seen.

Several sheep were crowded together in the sheep pen, as if they were sleeping. An old ox was tied next to it, and behind it, a young ox happily lowered its head and ate grass.

The target of the two was the little scalper. Anyway, the family had a scalper, so even if the little scalper was sold, it would not be affected. Moreover, their house was in dilapidation and they were obviously very short of money. As long as they were willing to pay, they could buy it.

And even if they don't eat this cow, it can be used to plow the land in the Southern Barbarians. But they know very well that the Southern Barbarians will not give them farming cattle.

And if they want to buy, they have no place to buy it. If they want to farm, they have to hoe the land themselves. The land there has never been cultivated, so it is very difficult to cultivate it just by manpower.

And there, there are requirements for sowing. It must be completed within a certain number of days, and then sown within a certain number of days. If it is not completed, you will be punished.

If the punishment was light, it would just be a slap in the face, or the grain would be deducted, or the amount to be handed over during the next year's harvest would be increased.

If it is serious, they may even be driven out of the village. Then they may starve to death in the wilderness and be captured by the southern barbarians.

In short, for farming, having a scalper is definitely a great help.
