1291 Hexi Dragon Horse
Hearing Kang Sui's question, the Hu man He Miao showed a somewhat exaggerated expression on his face, glanced at a few teenagers who were walking towards him and looked left and right at the same time, pointed at Kang Sui and scolded with a smile: "It's a shame that you have been in this realm for a long time, and you are a leading figure in the city, and you are so clumsy!" ”
When Kang Sui heard this, the smile on his face became even more deferential, and he hurriedly said, "He Weng said this, but it made me too ashamed. I'm just a mere beginner, and I'm fortunate to be taken care of by He Weng, so that I can gain a foothold in the city and make a mess of food and clothing, and what kind of leader is it. There are a few prominent figures in the world who can be so kind and friendly as He Weng, and make people feel welcome! ”
Having said that, he still took a serious look at a few teenagers, making sure that he hadn't seen them before, but one of the leading teenagers looked vaguely familiar, but it really made him feel very unreminiscent. Several teenagers spoke a Luo sound mixed with the local accent, but people couldn't tell where the hometown was by the accent.
He Miao was quite satisfied with Kang Sui's respectful attitude, raised his hand and patted his posture far above his burly Kang Sui's shoulder, and when several teenagers were also approaching, he pointed to one of the teenagers and said to Kang Sui: "You have been making a living in Hedong for a long time, if you don't even know the young Zhuang under Xue Duhu's door, it would be really rude." Fortunately, I have time to accompany you to the market today, if you anger Xue Jialangjun in ignorance, don't buy and sell here in the future. ”
Hearing He Miao say this, Kang Sui's face suddenly changed, and he looked at the young man a few times, and then suddenly came to his senses, no wonder he saw that this young man was familiar, and between his eyebrows was indeed Xue Tao, his father.
The Xue family was originally a wealthy man in Hedong, and Xue Tao was now appointed by General Xingtai as the town guard and supervisor to supervise the affairs of the Hedong Military Government. It's just that Xue Tao is a person who is cautious and cautious, especially when he contacts with these businessmen are limited to official business, but he doesn't know Xue Tao's son.
Xue Tao's son is named Xue Qiang, seventeen or eighteen years old, in addition to his father in appearance, the whole person also looks heroic, and he is indeed a rare young man.
He also did not have the arrogance of an ordinary young man because of his background and his own position, and when he heard He Miao say this, he hurriedly took two steps forward and then arched his hand: "It is really a send-off from Lao He Weng." ”
Xue Qiang also knew that although his father Xue Tao was currently a general in Hedong, he could be described as a high-ranking general. But the Hu man in front of him, He Miao, is not a general, but an old man from the general mansion of Xingtai, and was entrusted with the important task of supervising Ma Zheng in a county in Hedong, even if his father did not dare to be rude in person, Xue Qiang naturally did not dare to slack off.
"What kind of hard work, I am in the same county as your father, and I am a colleague who goes in and out of each other, and it is also the meaning of caring for the juniors."
He Miao smiled and waved his hand, but he looked informal, open-minded, and then pointed to Kang Sui and said to Xue Qiang: "This Hu Er Kang Sui is a well-known horse owner in the city, and there is no shortage of good horses in the stable, not an ordinary perfunctory profiteer. There are too many ingenuity in the horse market, and you young men are young and immature, and if you choose at will, you will definitely be cheated by others. ”
Xue Qiang hurriedly thanked him again, and Kang Sui on the other side also walked in time and said in a rather exaggerated tone: "It's rude that Langjun is Xue Yuanjun's beloved son!" Xue made Jun Wei to the east of the river, and we and other peddlers also admired and protected them. Lang Jun actually walked into this, and He Weng personally sent him, and he was not greedy and forgetful, so he immediately led Lang Jun into the stable, if he liked animal power, he took it away. ”
Kang Sui said in his mouth, but he was troubled and lamented in his heart. He matched with He Miao, He Miao helped him introduce some children of the current family, and after selling the horses at a high price, the two shared the profits equally, and it was not a one-time operation, and they were also skilled in cooperating with each other.
And He Miao can not only solicit customers for him, if the other party notices that something is wrong afterwards, and what trouble will be extended because of it, he will not dare to speak out because he is afraid of He Miao. Otherwise, Kang Sui didn't dare to do too much of this kind of thing, even if he was a strong dragon in transit, it would not be easy to offend those local tyrants who were in the head.
When it comes to local tyrants, the Xue family is the biggest tyrant in the Hedong Realm!
Other families in Hedong can get a corner of the river, and they can take advantage of business to collect profits. The Xue family is from Fenyin, from Fenyin to Puban, which is a hundred miles in between, and in previous years, they were all protected by the Xue family.
From this point, it can be imagined that the Xue family is strong. The townships in Hedong can be said to be the only ones who look forward. Not to mention that Xue Tao is now supervising the affairs of the military offices in Hedong, and he is a general who is cited by General Shen as a reused stone.
While saluting, Kang Sui looked at He Miao with vague eyes, and secretly said in his heart, Brother, are you not joking? Where is this fat sheep, it is simply a bear and a beast! No matter how bold he is, if he really offends the Xue family, I am afraid that the entire Hedong will become a forbidden area that he cannot set foot in in the future.
He Miao gave him a calm look, which meant that everything was business as usual. After hearing this, Kang Sui couldn't help but slander in his heart, and felt even more dilemma.
It is true that the Xue family is very strong, but this He Miao is not an ordinary person, not to mention the current ministry that directly supervises the Ma Zheng of Hedong, and the title he has received is even higher than Xue Tao, and he has a lot of connections among the royal divisions. Even when General Shen came to Hedong, He Miao was able to answer a few words.
Kang Sui has been a businessman for many years, and he is also a flexible person, so he thought of more. Although He Miao is usually a little greedy for money, he is by no means ignorant of interests, he is very shrewd, and he will never touch his hands if he shouldn't touch them. He would not fail to understand the prosperity of the Xue family, but he personally sent Xue Qiang to the horse market, except for wanting to slaughter him, he was afraid that there would be other meanings.
Not to mention that Kang Xianshang frowned there, Xue Qiang had already said with a smile: "I'm just a white-bodied dog at home, and I stayed in Heluo a lot before, it's normal for Kang Jun not to know me, it's not rude." This time, I was accompanied by good friends, and when I learned that the horse market was prosperous, I came to visit, and it would be best if I could visit a good horse. Kang Jun only needs to buy and sell fairly, and then talk about the rest, but he will chase away customers. ”
Xue Qiang's kind attitude made Kang Sui a little surprised, and he couldn't help but take a few more looks, and felt that this young man showed a good upbringing regardless of his demeanor or personality. It can be seen that the rumors outside Shu Xue Haowu are vulgar, but they are somewhat distorted.
But seeing He Miao, who was still squinting and standing aside, Kang Sui's mood couldn't help but become heavy again. He lowered his head in thought, and pondered for a while before making a decision, no matter what idea He Miao had in his heart, since he came to him, he naturally had no reason to disappoint the other party.
Not to mention the happiness of the two sides in the past, Xue Jiaqiang is strong, but it is only limited to Hedong, and it is also deeply supported by Xingtai. And He Miao is different, he is an old man under the general's mansion, and no one can say how many generals in the Wang Division have a great friendship with him, and the influence is not limited to one place.
If he disgusted He Miao because he was afraid of the Xue family, it would naturally be difficult for him to gain a foothold here, and he was afraid that he would inevitably be beaten if he turned to the side.
As soon as he thought of this, he showed a courteous smile on his face again, and said with a smile to Xue Qiang: "Lang Jun was born in a famous family, he is well-informed, I am fortunate to be able to introduce Liangji to Lang Jun, if I don't try my best to make Lang Jun satisfied, not only snub Lang Jun, but also live up to He Weng's expectations, or ruin my reputation!" ”
As he spoke, he led a few people into the confines of his horse farm. Speaking of which, the horse farm he rented also belonged to the Xue family's property, but now that he was sharpening his knives, he naturally wouldn't talk about these topics.
He Miao was familiar with this place, and he was willing to deign to send Xue Qiang to see the goods that he was about to buy, and since he would not follow him to the smelly place of the stable, he was instructed by Kang Sui to lead him to the riverside pavilion to sit down.
The horse farm is very large, occupying a large meadow at the bay of the river, and at the moment there are people coming and going on the meadow, either buying horses, or the servants in the horse farm are releasing horses to rejuvenate their muscles.
"The horse farm here is really extraordinary, compared to several places in Henan, it is far from winning!"
Seeing the lively atmosphere in the racecourse and the tall horses that can be seen everywhere, a teenager who followed Xue Qiang sighed and said.
While walking, Kang Sui also inquired about the extraordinary identities of these teenagers, and thought about it, the Xue family is now a Juwang family in Hedong, and it is naturally not a common trend to be close to Xue Qiang, the son-in-law of the family.
"My horses are mainly Hexi horses, which are much more powerful than Saima, and of course daily breeding is more cumbersome......
Kang Sui is proud to introduce his own horse farm, by the way, comment on the advantages and disadvantages of some mainstream horse breeds, Saima endurance, can bear weight, good at traveling, but the explosive power is not enough, and relatively short, as for the Hexi horse is tall and mighty, galloping and powerful, very powerful, very powerful, but not good at jumping over rugged roads.
Kang Sui's main business is Hexi horses, and he is also quite proud of his ability to transfer from the far west to Hedong, which shows his strength and experience.
Of course, these are just rough divisions, where the horse dealers who operate the horse business, in addition to raising horses and horses, for the selection of horse breeds to crossbreed, and take all kinds of advantages, if you don't understand these, you can't be considered to be in the house, you can only make some hard money.
With these basic horse knowledge, Kang Sui naturally opened his mouth to come, but a few teenagers next to him showed impatient looks, and opened their mouths to say, "The owner still takes us to see the stables." ”
These free-range horses outside, although they are all tall, are not good horses. A real good horse will not be mixed with ordinary horses, and these teenagers seem to often visit some horse farms, and their vision is extremely high.
Hearing the impatient tone of the teenagers, Kang Sui was not ashamed, but a little mysterious color suddenly appeared on his face, and he leaned over and whispered: "A few Lang Jun seem to be well versed in the way of Soma, but I don't know if you have ever heard of the name of Hexi Dragon Horse?" ”
"Kawasai Ryuju? Is there such a good seed in the owner's stable? ”
Hearing Kang Sui say this, all the teenagers' faces changed, and including Xue Qiang, they also looked at Kang Sui in disbelief.
Seeing the reactions of several teenagers, Kang Sui couldn't help but sigh that all of them were not ordinary people, and He Miao really brought himself a lot of trouble this time.
The so-called Hexi dragon horse, is a kind of Hexi good horse nickname, the horse is abnormal, has the advantages of many horse breeds, can be said to be one of the few good breeds in Hexi horse, even in Hexi, the number is absolutely rare, only a small amount from the Xianbei Tuyuhun tribe entrenched in Xihai County, and its breeding and cultivation methods are also kept strictly secret by Tuyuhun, so that it does not leak.
The name of this kind of divine horse has to be passed on to Zhongzhou, or after the king Shi Shanglong, the governor of Longyou Yu Manzhi is cleaning up the various realms of Longshang, and accidentally gets traces, such as getting the treasure, so that people take care of it all the way and send it to Heluo Xingtai. After that, although it was also wide, Tuyuhun itself was nomadic and uncertain, and it was not a tribe with too strong a sphere of influence, but it gained very little.
Kang Sui also learned about it by hearsay because of the operation of Hexi Road, but he has never seen the real Hexi Dragon Horse. In the entire Zhongzhou, there are probably only 100 horses in Luoyang, and its information has not been widely disseminated.
"A few Lang gentlemen look up to me too much."
After hearing this, Kang Sui waved his hand to deny it, not to mention that he didn't have this kind of god horse at all, even if he did, he had to find a way to dedicate it to the general of Xingtai, so that he could benefit the most, so that these children of Anointed Liang would feel that it was a great loss when they saw it.
When the teenagers heard this, they were all extremely disappointed, and they turned to talk about the rumors about the gods of Hexi Longju, and they knew more than Kang Sui. It is conceivable that they should have relatives and elders who hold important positions in the Xingtai before they come into contact with such a small-scale circulating thing.
"Although I was not fortunate enough to get the divine horse, I also went in and out of Longbian and Hexi all the year round, and occasionally got a few rare animals, which are suspected to be the remnants of the dragon horse......"
Hearing Kang Sui say this, the young man's eyes became bright again, and he urged him to take a look.
Kang Sui didn't shirk anymore, called the servants to whisper a few words, and then led the teenagers straight to the depths of the racecourse. As they gradually entered it, the defense of the horse farm also became tighter, and many slaves roamed around with rods, looking at the people with vigilant expressions.
Even outside a few well-defended stables, there were still armored warriors standing outside, and at a glance it was clear that they must be Wang Shijing's warriors. Seeing that Kang Sui actually had the ability to let Wang Shi come forward to protect him, the young people's eyes looked at him a little more solemnly.
Seeing this, Kang Sui also smiled reservedly, in fact, those Wang Shi soldiers had nothing to do with him, it was the military masters of the various departments who put them in the horse farm to guard the war horses they had ordered, and they would take them away together after they were completely purchased, but Kang Sui did not explain, and was happy to remain mysterious.
Before they got close to the deepest stable, there was already a loud and thorough neighing of horses, and the excitement on the faces of the teenagers was even more evident when they heard this sound.
Hearing the sound of horses, with the martial arts under the rule of the line, there are also many so-called "Bole Xiangma Sutra" and other ancient books such as the printing of prints, the teenagers are probably also familiar with the Book of Horses, there is no lack of confidence in themselves, so even the family does not bring much, so they dare to come directly to the horse farm under the mud and sand to choose horses.
Kang Sui runs a horse farm all the year round, and he is not afraid that customers know how to use horses, in fact, the more people who think they have excellent vision, the more willing they are to buy horses with huge sums of money. And those who do not understand themselves have little interest in horses, and even if they come here, they will only hastily choose a few horses to use their animal power, but they will not make huge profits.
When he arrived at a stable in the middle of the house, Kang Sui raised his hand to signal the servants to open the fence, and then smiled at the young men: "Several Lang Jun are all horse knowers, so I will not be tired of telling the story, and I will not be self-praised, but will induce you to judge and choose." ”
Hearing Kang Sui say this, the teenagers couldn't help but have a higher evaluation of him. Usually when they visited other horse farms, the owner couldn't wait to foam at the mouth and stuff the reins into their hands, but the owner surnamed Kang was much more indifferent.
Several teenagers rushed in, and their eyes were soon drawn to the large horses in the stable. The Liangzhou horse has a tall skeleton and strong explosive power, which is a very significant feature, and a few horses in the stable are deeply defined.
"Poor coat color......"
A young man frowned and said, and soon someone next to him laughed: "Get its essence and look at its thickness, and look at its inside and outside." Look at the eyelids, how to know the horse! ”
Standing outside the stable, Kang Sui heard the discussion coming from inside, and hurriedly turned his head to one side, almost bursting out laughing. Soma is broad and profound, with many special details, and the most is the experience and vision of the school examiner. Kang Sui has been running the horse business for so long, and there are occasional times when he walks away, and a few teenagers want to find beautiful jade in the mud and sand just by relying on a few horse scriptures, which is tantamount to a fantasy.
A few teenagers did not know what Kang Xian's psychology was, and circled around the horses in the stable, some touched their heads and ears, some looked at their mouths, some stroked their muscles, and some counted their ribs, and from time to time they were amazed, and occasionally whispered a few words. That kind of focused and profound posture, even Kang Sui sighed to himself.
The boys watched for most of the hour, and after each of them had chosen one or two, they took out the stables and went out for a test run, and then they each chose one. One of the young men pretended to be old, walked up to Kang Sui and frowned: "These horses can also be called good breeds, but the owner's words about the dragon foal relics seem to be a bit exaggerated......
Kang Sui was already overjoyed in his heart at this time, and after hearing this, he hurriedly said: "Yes, I only think that the quality of these horses is better than ordinary, because I have this doubt, let's say it, I really dare not be sure." ”
Xue Qiang stepped forward and said, "Disturbing Kang Jun for a long time, we have selected these horses......
Without waiting for Xue Qiang to finish speaking, Kang Sui hurriedly asked people to send all kinds of good riding equipment, and at the same time, even the horse slaves who take care of these horses on a daily basis said that they would give them away, after all, the differences in horse nature are subtle, and the real good horse still has to take care of the people who are comfortable before compromise.
He even said: "What I said before is definitely not a joke. Lang Jun traveled back to his hometown, and he traveled with his best friends, and these horses are counted as my congratulations to Lang Jun's hometown......"
Xue Qiang held a delicate horsewhip in his hand, waved his hand and said, "Could it be that Kang Jun is going to chase away guests again?" If I am born to receive such a treasure, I am afraid that it will be difficult to return home near my hometown. ”
When he said this, his posture was sufficient, and Kang Sui invited a few more people to go with him to look for He Miao. How much should these people be blackmailed, or He Miao has to get the idea.
In the end, the transaction was completed, and the slaves of the self-owned horse farm followed Xue Qiang and others to get the money. Kang Sui looked at He Miao, whose eyes were narrowed into a slit, with a look of wanting to speak and stopping, especially thinking of a few bad horses that were pressing the stables, and under He Miao's hint, they asked for a high price of more than three million yuan, which was so hot that Kang Sui didn't dare to accept it.
He Miao didn't have the kind of apprehension that Kang Xian had, and watched Xue Qiang and the others leave, and sighed: "The Xue family is really rich and rich, and the millions of dollars spent by children will not change!" ”
As he spoke, he looked at Kang Sui again, and said with a smile: "This time it's no longer the usual, you don't dare to keep it if you want to give you too much, 200,000 yuan, and use your horse farm." ”
Kang Sui's heart was even more bitter when he heard this, and he said in his heart, I hate to give you 200,000 yuan, I just ask you not to cause me this kind of trouble in the future!
However, seeing He Miao's happy face, Kang Sui couldn't help but sigh, this old Hu dared to pull out the tiger beard of the Xue family, and he was really bold.
After a moment's silence, he added, "It is my honor that He Weng can read me for something." I will listen to Heweng's orders as much as he wants. It's just that I have a difficult matter to decide recently, and I wonder if He Weng would like to give me a little guidance? ”
As he spoke, he took advantage of He Miao's good mood to talk about the idea of preparing to end the horse market and turn it into tea.
When He Miao heard this, his face suddenly became serious, and he glanced at Kang Sui up and down before he sighed: "If I didn't know what kind of roots Lao Kang is, listening to your arguments, I really have to wonder if you are out of the Great Sect Portal!" ”
