Chapter 637: Nu'er Gandusi
"Hmm." The nostrils snorted to the sky as a greeting, and after the body sat down completely, he touched the teacup with his hand and said with a casual look, "Your surname is Ding?" Listen to Xiao Wuzi say that you want to see me? Still want to do business with me? ”
The so-called little five sons are the middlemen found by Ding Shan, and they are a broker in the city, which is equivalent to the current middlemen and introducers. Don't underestimate these brokers, although their status is not very high, but they have a wide range of contacts, there are many people who know each other, and many things that cannot be done in the eyes of others, often when they contact them, things will change dramatically.
"Yes, the little one's surname is Ding, and he is the fifth brother I was looking for." Ding Shan's flattering look was very much in line with the businessman's smiling face.
"Well, okay, it doesn't matter what your last name is, I'll forget it afterwards, just say what business you asked me to do this time. I can tell you, General Ben is very busy, and if it's a small business, don't waste each other's time here. "A picture of being very busy with work and a lot of things, I don't look at Ding Shan at all.
Ding Shan didn't care about Zhang Mingming's contempt at all, and he didn't plan to have any friendship with this person, everyone met for their own purposes. "Yes, even if General Zhang said so, the little one will make a long story short, I have a batch of war horses at hand, and I am eager to make a move, but I don't know if General Zhang has any ideas."
As if out of instinct, Zhang Zhizhi just waited for the other party to finish speaking, and then hurriedly lowered the price and said: "What kind of big business should I be, it turned out to be a war horse, hum, let me tell you... Wait, what did you just say? War horses? ”
When he suddenly figured out that Ding Shan's business was a war horse, his face changed greatly at this moment, and he no longer looked careless just now.
"Yes, it's a war horse." This meeting changed to Ding Shan's serious color.
After looking at Ding Shan carefully, as if he didn't believe what the other party said, Zhang Mingzhi asked again with confirmation, "What's your surname?" Oh, Boss Ding, are you sure that you are trading war horses with me, not ordinary horses? ”
It's no wonder that Zhang Mingzhi would ask like this. The law of Da Ming has stipulated that war horses are not allowed to be bought and sold privately. It is different with ordinary horses, as long as the quantity is not too large, and private transactions are not prohibited. Of course, the price of war horses is several times higher than that of ordinary horses.
"Sure, definitely, and definitely, 100% of them are war horses. Oh yes, please General Zhang look out and see my healthy horse bolted to the stake? That's what I rode on, and that's one of them. Pointing to the healthy horse outside the teahouse, Ding Shan said with a show-off look.
Although his current position is inherited by his ancestors' military exploits, Zhang Zhizhi is not exactly a rice bucket, at least he still has a certain understanding of horses, because he has not done a lot of horse trading before, but when it comes to war horses, it is really the first time.
First, the trade of war horses is illegal, and no one dares to find them as officials. Second, who will sell it if they have a war horse? Powerful people are afraid that there are too few of them.
Under suspicion, Zhang Zhizhi looked at the horses outside the teahouse, and with his eyesight, he could see that the horses were of good quality, muscular, and full of strength. "This... Horses are good, but don't know how many? ”
quickly suppressed the shock in his heart, in Zhang Mingming's opinion, although such a war horse is of good quality, it is not such a strange commodity to live in, and it is normal to have three or five horses.
Ding Shan had been observing the change in Zhang Mingming's complexion, and he had already been sure in his heart, and when he saw the other party ask about the number, he stretched out four fingers.
"There are only four horses." Zhang Mingzhi breathed a sigh of relief, the four war horses were not so amazing. Even if he wanted to, he could risk getting four horses from the city's army.
"It's not." Ding Shan shook his head and waved his outstretched fingers.
"Not? That's forty horses? At this moment, Zhang Zhizhi came to some interest, for him, if it was really forty horses, it attracted some interest from him.
"No, no! General Zhang, can't you just think about it? "Ding Shan, you guess hard, don't be afraid to be scared.
Zhang Mingming, who was sitting opposite, was really frightened at this time. Even if Ding Shan dares to say this, it must not be forty horses, can it be said to be four hundred?
Hiss!
At this moment, Zhang Zhizhi became unable to calm down. To say that he has never seen 400 war horses, isn't there 2,000 war horses in the nearby guard of Jianzhou? But that belongs to the Northern Ming Dynasty, and these four hundred horses are private transactions, and when the matter is done, it belongs to him, and he can sell it to the army at a high price, even... Even if he can find a way to snatch this war horse and give it to the guard, it will definitely be a great achievement, and at that time, he may be able to improve a level and become a real thousand households.
Don't underestimate that there is just one more sub-word between the deputy thousand households and the thousand households, the power of the two is indeed very different, so big that some people are poor and have a lifetime, which is unattainable.
Zhang Mingzhi became a vice president by hereditary lineage, and it seems that the starting point is very high, but if nothing else, this life may stop here. When it comes to his next generation, the hereditary one is not a deputy thousand households, but only a hundred household heads. For the sake of future generations, he is under a lot of pressure.
His mind turned a lot in this moment, and finally he made up his mind that this thing had to be done, and it had to be done well. As for the present, first stabilize Ding Shan's mind, and then go back to making plans.
"Ahem. Four hundred horses, yes? I wanted to be with a hint of reserve, but there was still a trace of trilling in Zhang Mingming's voice, representing the excitement in his heart at the moment.
"Yes, it's exactly four hundred horses, but I don't know if General Zhang can eat it, and if he eats it, how many silver taels can be given for each horse. Of course, the quality is absolutely guaranteed, and each horse will not be weaker than the one outside. Pointing out of the teahouse, Ding Shan was still smiling.
"Well, if the quality is not as problematic as [I love www.52zw.biz], it's just four hundred war horses, and General Ben wants it." Putting on a picture of wealth and wealth, Zhang Mingzhi at this moment must say this, he can't show cowardice, let Ding Shan be suspicious, if that's the case, this business can't be done. He didn't ask the other party where the war horse came from, this is the rule, the buyer doesn't ask the seller where the things come from, and because of this, there are many good and cheap things circulating in the market.
"Okay." Ding Shan also looked very happy, and then looked at Zhang Mingzhi with a longing gaze, a look like he would see you bidding now.
Zhang Mingming just groaned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay, if there is no problem with the quality, how about I can drive each horse for two hundred taels?" ”
In the normal market, an ordinary horse only costs about thirty taels. The price of a war horse is about one hundred taels to one hundred and twenty taels, and it depends on the health and foot strength of the war horse. But when it comes to so many war horses, of course, you can't look at it as usual. War horses tend to be more numerous and more expensive. However, the price of one horse was two hundred taels, which was still very sincere, even higher than the market price and the black market price.
One horse is two hundred taels, and four hundred horses are eighty thousand taels of silver, which is definitely not a small amount, and it is definitely not a small number of subordinate thousand households that can call the shots. But Zhang Mingzhi made a decision without thinking too much, which can only prove one point, that is, he is bound to win.
But Ding Shan didn't seem to see this, just smiled and nodded, full of greedy businessman's appearance.
The price is negotiated, and the next thing is the location of the transaction, three days later, at the Jiaoshan Pass, the two sides agreed to trade there, with one hand of money and one hand of goods.
Ding Shan left, and Zhang Zhizhi looked at the distant back and fell into deep thought. Even if such a big piece of fat meat arrives in front of him, he must eat it in his mouth, and now the question is how to eat it?
Four hundred war horses, don't say it's him, even with the strength of the current Shuangchengwei, I'm afraid it will be difficult to eat, it seems that Jianzhou Zuowei must be notified to know, which is why he must insist on trading after three days. On the surface, he said to Ding Shan that he wanted to make up money, after all, eighty thousand taels was not a decimal number, but in fact, he was creating enough time to notify Zuo Wei's side. Although there are war horses that can be connected with each other, it takes two days to go back and forth, and three days is just right in addition to the need to prepare.
As the company commander directly under the regiment, Ding Shan's brain is definitely enough, he has already seen Zhang Mingming's ill intentions, but he is not afraid. If it was before, only their cavalry regiment would have taken the initiative to provoke such an enemy, but now, with the Sixth Young Master and the Third Regiment of Leng Feng and six auxiliary battalions on their side, why be afraid?
In the tent of the temporary command camp, Ding Shan described the meeting with Zhang Zhizhi in great detail, and finally told his suspicions together, and then closed his mouth tightly. In this camp tent, up to the sixth young master, down to the three regiment commanders and a group of battalion commanders, but he did not have the power to speak more as a company commander.
"Very good, this time Company Commander Ding has made a contribution." After Yang Chendong finished talking about the situation, he praised it without hesitation. Then his eyes began to search on the sand table, and soon he found the place of Jiaoshan Pass.
Nuer Gandu Division is now Guanwai, now the three northeastern provinces. When it was not mainly developed, it was a high mountain except for the plains.
The high mountains, one after the other, are endless, and they seem to give people a very grand and magnificent feeling; The plain is endless, you can't see the end at a glance, and you can see far away. But there are also some special environments in this terrain, such as the Horn Mountain Pass, which is the connection point between the mountains and the plains, and belongs to the area under the mountain.
