Chapter 205: What to Do Without Coupons?

Frankly speaking, Chen Fan was dumbfounded at this moment.

He really didn't expect that the thing he had been longing for would be so easily obtained?!

This was a bit of a subversion of his concept.

Before he could react, Master Liu rushed to him, patting and touching the mare, his cloudy eyes gleaming, "This horse is good, a really good horse. The skeleton is well-proportioned, the limbs are slender, the chest is broad, the buttocks are even, and the teeth are good. It's a good horse that has just reached adulthood."

As he spoke, he gestured to its height, "Shoulder height of 5 chi, even among Dongyang horses, it is considered a tall horse, not bad, not bad."

Then his brow furrowed again, and he began to scold, "Who the hell raised it? The horse is so skinny, and its coat is not shiny. What a waste of a good horse."

Chen Fan pulled the reins, touched the horse's face, and said with a wry smile, "Master Liu, this horse is sick and needs to be taken back to be cured."

"Sick?"

Master Liu circled the horse twice more, frowning tightly, "It does seem a little listless."

Then he looked at Chen Fan, "Can it be cured?"

Chen Fan chuckled twice and said, "Let's try. It shouldn't be a big problem."

Master Liu nodded slightly, "That's good, that's good."

The old man had been dealing with livestock all his life. He had no other hobbies, he just liked to ponder these good livestock, and what he feared most was livestock getting sick.

After a pause, he looked at Chen Fan, then at the four girls who had been following behind, "Have you finished browsing?"

Chen Fan looked back at them.

The four girls looked at each other, then nodded together, "We're done browsing."

Although Huang Ying, Yang Ju, and Liu Dan wanted to browse more, firstly, they were worried about the money in Chen Fan's cloth bag, and secondly, seeing Master Liu's appearance, it was obvious that he didn't want to stay here, so they could only say so.

As for Jiang Lili, if it weren't for Chen Fan, she wouldn't even want to come out. At this time, she naturally couldn't wait to go back sooner.

Seeing them say this, Chen Fan turned around and said, "Then let's go back."

"Okay."

Master Liu turned around and walked inside to pull the mule cart and donkey cart.

Yang Ju and Liu Dan quickly followed. Master Liu could pull two animals by himself, but he couldn't drive two carts, so they went to help.

Soon, the mule cart and donkey cart came out one after the other. The four girls sat in one, with Yang Ju driving in front. The donkey was very well-behaved, and no skills were needed. Just shake the reins, and it would consciously follow behind the mule cart.

Chen Fan then jumped on the horse, gently clamped his legs to the horse's belly, and the mare strode forward.

However, its dejected appearance made Chen Fan feel a little unbearable.

When they left the market and went outside, he leaned down and whispered in the horse's ear, "Be good and listen, I'll take you to find your foal, okay?"

The mare was stunned for a moment and suddenly raised its head to look back at him.

Chen Fan stroked its mane, "Listen to me, I promise I won't lie to you."

At this time, the mare's eyes lit up, and it ran forward.

It instantly rushed past the donkey cart and mule cart in front. Master Liu sat on the mule cart, and he forgot to pull down the whip he raised.

You call this horse sick???

Even a crazy horse couldn't run as fast as it!

Fortunately, Chen Fan had already practiced his riding skills. At this time, even without stirrups or a saddle, he sat firmly on the horse's back. Soon, he rushed through half the street to the intersection of Nanhuzhen.

Here, the crowd increased. Chen Fan quickly pulled the reins, "Slow down, slow down, we're not in a hurry."

The mare neighed, "I want to find my baby."

Chen Fan wiped his sweat, "Don't worry, don't worry, it's at my house. You'll be able to see it later, I promise."

He quickly stroked the horse's neck, which slowed the mare down.

Not far away, Zhou Station Chief and Wang Shiping from the veterinary station stared at Chen Fan dumbfounded.

Zhou Station Chief, "Shiping, the horse that Little Chen is riding, is that the one, right?"

Wang Shiping nodded woodenly, "There are less than 10 purebred Dongyang horses in the entire Nanhugongshe. I recognize every one of them, and I definitely won't be mistaken."

Zhou Station Chief squeezed his eyes and nose together, "Do you think this Little Chen knows magic? The day before yesterday, when we saw this horse, it was still weak and half-dead. In his hands, it's like it's going to the battlefield, running wild."

Wang Shiping pondered for two seconds and asked in a low voice, "Station Chief, why don't we go take a look?"

Zhou Station Chief suddenly came back to his senses and strode forward, "Let's go, let's go take a look."

Across the road, Chen Fan dismounted and comforted the mare again, "Be good and listen, wait for me. After I buy something, I'll take you home to see your baby."

The mare snorted, "Then hurry up."

Chen Fan's mouth twitched slightly, "Okay, okay, hurry, hurry."

He was too lazy to even tie the reins. He turned around and entered the supply and marketing cooperative.

Now, this horse probably couldn't be chased away, so there was no need to tie it up.

He entered the supply and marketing cooperative, naturally to buy a gun.

If he didn't know, that would be fine, but now that he knew, how could he bear it?!

Walking in swaggeringly, Chen Fan waved hello familiarly, "Sister Wang, Happy New Year."

Saleswoman Wang Xiaoling walked over along the glass counter and smiled, "The New Year is over, and you're still saying Happy New Year. Why didn't you come earlier to wish me a Happy New Year?"

Chen Fan smiled and said, "It's still the New Year before the first month is over. It's good to come and wish you a Happy New Year at this time. I don't have to bring anything, and you don't have to give me a red envelope."

Wang Xiaoling immediately giggled, "You have such a glib tongue. You can even make black white."

Then she asked, "What do you want to buy today?"

Chen Fan took two steps forward, leaned closer, and whispered, "Sister Wang, I heard there are guns for sale here?"

Wang Xiaoling looked at him strangely, "Yes, do you want to buy one?"

As she spoke, she walked a few steps inside, bent down, took out a paper box about one meter long from under the counter, and placed it on the counter.

While unpacking the box, she said, "Gongzi brand air rifle, produced by the Shanghai Gongzi Air Rifle Factory. It's an old brand. My family has this kind. Take a look."

As she spoke, she handed the gun to Chen Fan.

Holding the gun in his hand, Chen Fan still had a surreal feeling.

He bought a gun just like that??

Seeing that he was holding the gun and not moving, Wang Xiaoling thought he didn't know how to use it, so she immediately pointed to a piece of iron on the side and said, "See here? Pull it out and push it back in to pressurize it, then just shoot. This kind of gun is simple, much simpler than a rifle."

Chen Fan tried it according to her instructions. Wang Xiaoling quickly said, "Don't aim at people. Although there are no bullets inside, it can still injure people at close range, especially don't aim at the eyes. If you hit it, you'll go blind."

Chen Fan fired a shot at the ground.

The sound was very small, just like the kind of balloon-shooting gun he had played with when he was a child.

However, having gotten used to the Type 56, he always felt that this air rifle with almost no recoil was not satisfying, so he asked, "Are there any other guns?"

Wang Xiaoling shook her head, "No, we don't have any large wild animals here. Except for the birds flying in the sky, basically there are only small things like rabbits, weasels, and foxes. An air rifle is enough. If you want to buy a shotgun or a pistol, you have to go to the county. They are sold there."

Hearing her say the same thing as Zhang Wenliang, Chen Fan could only regretfully put the idea aside for the time being, thinking that he would talk about it when he went to the county seat one day.

Then he asked, "Sister Wang, how much does this gun cost?"

Wang Xiaoling, "38 yuan a gun, plus 3 industrial coupons."

Chen Fan was stunned, "Industrial coupons too?"

Wang Xiaoling smiled, "This is also an industrial product, of course you need industrial coupons."

Chen Fan was paralyzed. I have money, but what to do without industrial coupons?
