175 Buying a Cow
While Zhao Zhitong was sitting in the cart, moping with her little head hung, she suddenly heard the sounds of cattle and horses, which instantly caught her attention.
She then realized they had arrived at the Livestock and Poultry Market.
The Livestock and Poultry Market was situated at the far corner of the County Town Fair. Numerous livestock were tied to trees, and there were many cages filled with chickens, ducks, and geese. She even spotted some puppies and kittens for sale. Many fairgoers were milling about, observing the animals.
Zhao Dong parked the cart by a wall. Zhao Zhitong, instantly full of energy, grabbed Zhao Ya's hand and ran off. They excitedly looked at the chickens, ducks, and geese, then at the cows and horses.
Since these cows and horses had been tied up outside by their sellers early on, there were plenty of animal droppings on the ground, creating quite a strong smell.
