One hundred twenty taels

Yu Dong was shocked ,she indeed wanted to sell the tiger pelt for a good sum of money but she didn't expect that the first offer given to her will consist of sixty taels . What Yu Dong never considered that there were no fur processing industries in this era , the fur when new was soft and felt amazing to touch but with no dry cleaning - the furs bristles would soon become hard , compared to those fur that were washed and cleaned by hunters with washing grass and water , her fur that was washed with spiritual energy was much more soft and had an unnatural shine that no one could look away from it .

The Marquise was someone who loved collecting good quality fur , how can she let it go ? This shiny soft fur could be used to make a wonderful coat for her daughter who was patrolling the border of their country and the deer pelt could be used to make a jacket for her beloved husband - her precious often complains that the fur she brought was not as soft as it was in his country , hah ! With this she will show her precious that her country's hunting women were no different from his country's huntress !

" wait a second , you are buying both ?" The lady boss of the restaurant , Song Yixu who was hesitant regarding buying this fur from Yu Dong was shocked , she indeed trusted her friend , the marquis Qiao Sha 's judgement if her friend offered sixty taels to Yu Dong , then the fur should surely be of really good quality but what shocked her was that Qiao Sha actually leaped and took hold of the deer pelt as well , if she took both of them what was she going to take " Sha Sha ? Why don't you leave one for me , I can -"

" No " Qiao Sha could sacrifice her life for her friend if the situation calls for it but right now this was the matter of impressing her precious , if she let Song Yixu snatch this pelt from her , it was just a matter of time before Her precious throws a tantrum , she could already imagine it , the second she will enter her house with this tiger pelt , it wouldn't take long for her precious to hear the news from the servant , when that happen her precious husband will ask her to let him see what good fur she has brought , and the second he touches this fur - Qiao Sha shuddered while thinking , its highly possible that she will be kicked out of her room by her precious if she didn't bring one for her husband as well.

Song Yixu pursed her lips and glared at Qiao Sha then she curved her lips in a gentle smile and turned to look at Yu Dong who was shocked at the sight of Qiao Sha practically caressing the fur like one would do to their baby " Young girl , what's your name - I heard from Yu Xi that you brought really good quality meat earlier for selling to my restaurant , seeing the quality of your goods , I think we should co operate ? What do you say ?"

Yu Dong who was stunned by the one hundred twenty tael offer after adding both the pelt , was already rendered speechless but she still understood what it meant to get a cooperation with a big and rich lady boss , so she happily nodded and said " if madam doesn't mind , then I will bring all my fresh game here to your restaurant "

" including the pelts " added Song Yixu .

Yu Dong smiled at her childish actions and nodded promising" including the pelts"

It was only when Yu Dong agreed did Qiao Sha woke up from her daze and looked at Yu Dong and Song Yixu , briefly understanding the situation , she inflated like a hot air ballon " Yixu , you are actually trying to snatch those precious furs from right under my nose ! Is that it - that you don't want to remain friends with me ? "

" if you wanted to be friends with me you could have shared that deer pelt with me , you know how much my husband likes deer pelts , its going to be winter soon , I could have made a cloak for him !"

" you snooze you lose ! Who asked you to be so sloppy in claiming what you wanted !"

" let's leave them to it " said Yu Xi the lady chef "its their old habit , they might look like they are going to fight like little kids and a fight might really break out but they have been together ever since they were in their shorts , both of them are really good friends , don't worry " added Yu Xi when she saw Yu Dong and Yu Mai 's concerned expressions .

Yu Dong nodded and walked out with Yu Xi , feeling a bit confused and guilty maybe if she hunted another fox or rabbit , this fight have not occurred . But all her thoughts vanished when Yu Xi gave her pouch that included the one hundred and twenty taels for the fur skin " here , make sure to keep it safe , I won't be able to refund you if someone stole it " though Yu Xi sounded like she was cursing Yu Dong for having bad luck but in fact Yu Xi was a straightforward woman who had no such thing as filter in her mouth . Yu Dong understood it too , so she simply nodded , thanked Yu Xi for her hard work and left the restaurant , after she placed the pouch in her inner sleeves , that is to say her inner world .

Haha , steal ? They need to at least find something on her body before they could steal anything .

Clutching Yu Mai 's hands , Yu Dong then asked around for the place where they sold ox , horses and goats etc . The animal market was in the southern most part of the market and Yu Dong and Yu Mai who were on foot compared to those rich nobles who were coming in and out of the market on their carriages , were really thirsty again by the time they reached the market , in the end Yu Dong had to purchase a bamboo container with clean water . She instilled some of her spiritual energy in the water and gave it to Yu Mai who was licking his lips , compared to her who was an adult , Yu Mai needed water more in case he suffered from heat stroke .

Even though it wasn't summer now but the noon was really sultry and warm , it might not be enough to make an adult faint but a seven year old child was a different story . The animal market was bustling with activity and the air smelled of animal feces and dung , it was so nasty that Yu Mai had to cover his nose with his free hand , Yu Dong was fine though , she had been once surrounded by the smell of rotting flesh coming from zombies , twenty four seven , who cared about animal feces ?

" I'm selling this ox , look carefully sister its strong and sturdy , it can do a lot of farm work , I promise to give you a fair price "

" sister look at this mule only one year old , strong and beautiful , don't you want a handsome ride for yourself ?"

" no the mule is too young , I don't think it can actually endure my weigh "

" sister - sister then look at this one right here -"

Yu Dong thought that this bustling noises were really a novel experience for her , in her time no more than three people left to get supplies and even if they did , most of the time it included the roars of zombies and the shouts of the zombie control officers , when had she seen such a calm and peaceful sight .
