5. Jack sells cattle
"What's wrong? Zi Ke, he looked disappointed early in the morning. Could it be that Fatty Dun did something blushing and heartbeat?"
When the sun rises and the sun sets, there are always endless things in the villages outside the Yade Royal City. Of course, among the hundreds of people, there is only one child.
Several days have passed since the last fight by the river. Green seemed to have forgotten this and still lived his daily life that other children who have to listen to parents' stories to do farm work envied.
Today, Green was rummaging through the soil and trying to find some fishing bait, but saw Jack, a straw hat boy, walking over on the road with his old cow...
"If you say that I and Gret of Nishimura blushed and felt lost when I found out that it was a dream, we are still good friends..."
He sighed heavily. The straw hat boy who was in a bad mood thought of a heavy dog, and even more sad. "This cow can't squeeze out milk anymore, my mother asked me to take it to the city to sell it..."
"Is that true?"
Green nodded, understanding the reason why Jack was lost. He said before that Jack's family was very poor. Except for a wooden house, all his family belonged to him was probably the only milk-producing cow.
My father died when Jack was very young, and my mother was even more ill. She could only stay at home to make some handmade textiles and exchange some food for others in the village. Almost all the burden at home was pressed on the nine-year-old boy.
In addition, although Jack himself wore a straw hat, he did not have the grand wish of being the head of the Naruto Village, which is commonly known as the lack of prospects. He always stole other people's food to fill his stomach when he was hungry. Fortunately, everyone in the village was very simple and kind, and turned a blind eye to give this poor family some help, so Jack was not beaten to death.
Fortunately, Jack's mother knew that this was the kindness of the villagers, so she accepted the food Jack brought back and taught her children all the time: "Everything you eat is the most precious and sincere gift for us. You must remember this firmly. When you have the ability, you must repay it. The things you carry on your shoulders are heavier than you imagined..."
"Why should I rush to sell it? Even if I can't produce milk, I can still breed it with other cows." After understanding the situation, Green asked strangely again.
"Damn it makes sense!!"
Jack was stunned. His friend was still smart enough, but soon, Jack became lost again. He just remembered something: "But there are ten days left to be the Sea God Festival. All the bulls in the village were presented to the temple. Where can I find a bull that can be bred?"
The Kingdom of Yad was the king of the Sea King Nipton, which is the faithful country of Poseidon. In addition to the river of gifts, Nipton also gave a beautiful white bull as a divine object of the kingdom. Since then, the [bull] has also been regarded as a sacred symbol. Every time the ceremony comes, it is worshipped to the temple and prays that the glory of the Sea King will still shine.
It has to be said that in this incredible world, this approach is very effective, and many families have avoided the disaster and achieved a good harvest for a year.
"So..." Frowning, Green pondered for a while, then looked up and looked carefully at Jack, and whispered: "Look for Fatty?"
"That's wrong with the species, okay!! I would rather sell Jenny (that cow) than let it be defiled by the fat man!!"
After thinking about his face full of wrinkles, his balls were so big that he showed his melancholy temperament and the majesty of the king, Jack was instantly terrified. This was a pure and loving fairy tale, not a mountain and sea classic that was running around with gods, ghosts and monsters. Should he do this?
"What's so strange about this? Isn't the prince of our kingdom just a little donkey? The queen's great precedent proves that interracial reproduction is OK!!"
Here, one thing has to be mentioned. The king of the Kingdom of Yad has twelve daughters. He did not want to hand over the kingdom to a stranger in the future. He always wanted a son. However, now the king is old and his ability to degenerate, he can only seek help from the temple and desire to get help from the gods through devout prayers and a lot of contributions.
But for some reason, Lord Haihuang did not respond for a long time. (Is this of course? The second leader of the divine realm who covers so many countries will be dismissed by you, an old bird in a remote country? Compared to common things, it is more realistic to treat your beautiful princesses as sacrifices)
The old king had no choice but to lead a large number of elite soldiers of the kingdom to the depths of the dark forest west of the kingdom, and personally searched for the help of the witch.
Let's not mention the process. Anyway, the king succeeded, and no one knew what kind of agreement he reached with the witch. Since then, in addition to the nobles and ministers, the king's office also had a hunchbacked figure shrouded in black robe.
The queen also successfully became pregnant and gave birth to a boy, but what made the king angry was that the queen gave birth to a donkey, and the king's affliction was imagined.
He suspected that the queen stole someone on his back, and that person was not even a human being!! What a terrible beast-loving habit!! The king was shocked and angry, and chopped the donkeys across the country!!
It is not that I have suspected that it was the witch who was wielding, but before the king could attack her, the witch threw out a bombshell.
The witch discovered that all the king's twelve daughters were not his species...
With a king like O_o, he hurriedly called all the princesses to recognize their relatives by playing blood, but found that the witch's discovery... it's fucking real!!!
and……
That donkey is really my son!!
100% pure and pure royal blood!!!
After detailed investigation, the king found that his [good brothers] were nobles, guards, chefs, prime ministers, soldiers, shepherds, farmers, merchants, blacksmiths... and kings, princes, ministers, and various professions from other countries...
In short, the old king was once again frightened by some aspects of his queen's social circle.
Since then, the originally kind and friendly old king has changed and become ruthless. He imprisoned all twelve beautiful princesses in a big room. Not only did he give their servants only bad food every day, but he also asked them to weave beautiful handmade textiles. If the requirements do not meet the standards, they would not want to fill their stomachs.
On the contrary, the old king was unexpectedly kind to his own donkey son, giving him everything he wanted, and announced nationwide that it would be the next king of the Kingdom of Yad!!
This is roughly the case...
Anyway, for Green and Jack, the king's chaotic bird affairs had nothing to do with them. For the lives of the upper class, the lower class could only look forward to it and occasionally used it as a topic of discussion, let alone two children?
What should be considered now is, indeed, how can I get more money to get?
"Let's go, I'll go with you."
Leaving the bait in his hand, Green clapped his hands, cleaned the soil in his hand, and jumped directly to the cow's back, like a general about to go to the battlefield and waved his arms: "Call Bell and Tom together, let's go to the city to play!!"
