Chapter 378: Following Manbao

Yang Heshu pondered and asked, "If you had a cow, could it replace a laborer?"

"Hey, sir, you must be joking. A cow is not just equivalent to one laborer—it's like three laborers. People like me have to stop and rest after walking up three rows, but if you feed a cow well, it can keep going for ten or eight rows without stopping. A cow's endurance is much stronger than a human's."

Yang Heshu hadn't realized the usefulness of a cow was so great and quickly asked, "If the County Governmental Office was willing to let you buy a cow on credit, would you be interested?"

Manbao couldn't help but sit up straight, they hadn't settled the earlier matter yet, and now was County Magistrate Yang about to abandon her for someone else?

"This won't do. Can people like us even afford to buy a cow?"
