Chapter 6: The Pit Man
"His Royal Highness the Prince's warriors are really unparalleled warriors, and they will definitely be able to pacify the Huns in the future."
Looking at Liu Xiaozhu's hopeful face, Yun Xiao had to say flattering words against his will. I just prayed in my heart that it would be good to meet the Huns who didn't die too ugly when they met these raw melons and eggs.
Liu Xiaozhu was overjoyed to be praised by Yun Xiao, and he thought that there was a problem with these guys going to the battlefield immediately.
"I heard that Yunhou has been buying Xiongnu horses recently, why don't you sell them to Lonely."
Hearing Liu Xiaozhu's question, an inexplicable feeling surged in his heart, Nangong didn't even tell his brother about such a big thing. If Luan Ling had been replaced, the Luan family would have made a lot of money by hitchhiking.
But no one can pit Liu Xiaozhu by himself, first of all, this kid is his brother-in-law. I grew up watching it myself, and I can't do it. But this is not the point, the point is that according to Liu Qi's physical condition, it is likely that there will be few days left. It is estimated that this guy will be enthroned as emperor either this winter or next spring.
If you pit him at this time, then the fun will be great. Yun Xiao didn't want to expect the great Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to have a mind like the sea, and it seems that this buddy's mind is not much bigger than a needlenose. Can you kill yourself when you are old?
"There are a lot of good horses in the palace now, why does His Royal Highness the Crown Prince want to buy those bad horses of the ministers?"
"Hahaha, Yun Hou laughed. Who doesn't know that your Yun family cavalry is the first iron cavalry of my Han Dynasty, and if there is cavalry, there must be good horses. I've been in the Yun family for so many years, and I still don't know the details? These Hun horses are all first-class horses.
I heard that the Hun horses on the market have been fried to three hundred gold each, and Gu Ke is not so rich. Yunhou is rich and rivals the country. But it's a little cheaper. β
It seems that Liu Xiaozhu really fell in love with these Hun horses of his own, but this mouth can't pit him. Yun Xiao thought for a while and said, "His Royal Highness the Prince, in this way, in two months, there will be a batch of one-year-old horses to be trained." Yun had no long things, so he offered two hundred Hun horses to His Royal Highness. β
Liu Xiaozhu's eyes lit up, this favor was a little bigger. Two hundred Hun horses are worth 60,000 gold at the current market price, and Yun Xiao actually said that he would give them away. It seems that talking to my brother-in-law is better than looking for my sister, when I first told Nangong, Nangong still pushed back and refused to let me buy it, for fear that he would take advantage of the Yun family, and see how bold my brother-in-law is.
"How good is that. Thank you so much, Yunhou. β
Dou Ying sat in the courtyard of Nanshan. There was a large plate of ice in the hot skyhouse. But Dou Ying's body was still sweating, and Dou Zhong next to him was constantly spinning in circles in the room like a donkey, and the sweat on his head was flowing like an earthworm.
"Sixth, this Luan family has news again. The girl let out three hundred Hun horses. What can I do? I don't have the money to eat any more. Chang'an has suffered a severe drought this year. The crops are not harvested, and the money for roasting horses is better than being used to stock up on grain. β
"Third brother, these Huns are healthy horses. We're going to eat it anyway, and it's just right now. The Xiongnu horses have risen to 300 gold each. We don't lose money even if we sell it. But if you think about it, in just two or three months, a horse has risen by a hundred gold. Could there be a more lucrative deal than this? β
"But these horses were all released by the girl one after another, and the price was three hundred gold. Although the price has risen, we have also hoarded nearly 2,000 Xiongnu horses. I really don't have any money, and I have to pay your sister-in-law's dowry. If there is a mistake this time, I will have to jump the Yellow River alone. β
"No, it's the third brother, these horses must be eaten. If we don't buy it, others will buy it. In the future, we will not be the only customers of that girl, and it will be even more difficult for us to manipulate the horse market. β
"Anyway, I don't have any money, I really don't have money to eat."
"In this way, I still have a courtyard in Chang'an. The price can also be worth 100,000 yuan, so it will be worth her. When you leave in a moment, I will hand you the title deed. β
Dou Ying was very helpless, it seemed that this third brother was really helpless. He had to go into battle shirtless, but he really didn't have to take out 100,000 yuan in cash at once. had to mortgage Chang'an's house as horse money.
"Sixth, why do I think this matter is a bit suspenseful. We're not going to be fooled by that girl, I heard that this girl hasn't been there for months. It is said that she went to the mountains to raise a baby, and there will be no cats. β
"No, the Marquis of Lintong is a long-term person. The people of the Wei family gave him food at the most difficult time, and he can remember it to this day. Not to mention that the girl gave birth to a girl for him, it may be that the girl is really pregnant again. Young people, always like this, don't make a fuss. β
"I hope so."
Coming back from Shanglin Yuan, Yun Xiao was tired and half dead. I swore that I would not climb the mountain with my brother-in-law in the future, not because I lost 200 horses. But because I can't afford to bear this sin, it's so hot that the flies don't bother to fly. When you go out and climb in the mountains, you just have nothing to suffer.
Under Ellis's waiting, he took a hearty bath and drank a sip of sweet and sour fruit stuffed with ice. Yun Xiao plans to sleep beautifully under the grape trellis.
Nangong came, and Yun Xiao looked at this mother-in-law vigilantly. This is the grape trellis is low, and there are many servants who come and go. However, I believe that this cannot hinder Her Royal Highness's enthusiasm for giving birth to children, and it is not impossible to fight a field battle under the grape trellis.
The problem is that today is really not in good health, and I can't receive this princess. To paraphrase Huanzhu Gege's line, now it is heartless and powerless.
Nangong had a weird smile on his face, and Yun Xiao was vigilant. looked at this wife who was gradually coming towards him, and thought about this excuse for prevarication in his mind. I guess I was tossed by your brother to climb the mountain, and this excuse should be able to fool you through.
"Snap" a bamboo slip fell on the small table in front of Yun Xiao.
"What is this?" Yun Xiao asked suspiciously.
"Wei Qihou's other courtyard in Chang'an can be regarded as the title deed of another Hou Mansion." Nangong sat on Yun Xiao's lap and put his hands around Yun Xiao's neck.
"Where did it come from? How is a bamboo slip? Yun Xiao asked in surprise. The title deed of Dou Ying's house will actually appear in his hands, or bamboo slips. This couldn't help but surprise Yun Xiao.
"It's only been a few years since the paper came out, and this Hou Mansion was handed down by the ancestors of the Dou family. Of course, the title deed is a bamboo slip, and if it is made of paper, it is fake. As for the source......"
Nangong brought his face closer to Yun Xiao, and Yun Xiao immediately understood and kissed him the face.
"Hmph, the Luan family sent it. When I heard that you knew that his family made perfume privately, Luan Xiong was scared to death. That's why this time we will cooperate like this, Wei Qihou used the house to top three hundred horses, and I think the Dou family's money is almost squeezed. Shouldn't we close the net, so as not to have too many dreams at night? β
"It seems like you've cheated your cousin and looks very happy." Yun Xiao kissed Nangong again, and he decided to treat Nangong well today. actually pit Dou Ying's ancestral house, and this harvest is really expensive.
"you, I heard you promised to give Xiao Yu'er two hundred horses today?"
"Well, in a few months, there will be a Dawan horse coming over from Donghuna. The breed of horses is much better than that of the Hun horses, and I heard that there is also a kind of horse that sweats as red as blood when it runs. The people of the Western Regions are called sweat and blood horses, and I don't know if the goshawk can get a few back. β
"Then we'll close the Internet in a few days, after all, it's my cousin. It's not good to be too ruthless, and the Queen Mother can't explain it. β
Nangong carefully persuaded Yun Xiao not to do things desperately, if the queen mother came forward, the matter could only return to the original point.
"Alright then, we'll close the net in a few days. The 7,000 Xiongnu horses were released, at first 150 gold, and then the price was gradually reduced, and our family only left 2,000 horses to pull the cart. As for the Luan family, you sue sΓΉ Luanxiong. If you want to keep the head of the six yangs, you will stop buying and selling perfumes.
As for soy sauce, he can brew it casually, but we have to take 20% of it. Just told him that grandma's recipe for stealing Lao Tzu. β
Yun Xiao is in a bad mood now as soon as he hears the people of the Luan family. The things I invented are said to be cottages in the past, and the concept of intellectual property rights is wooden. For Yun Mi's sake, he has shown mercy if he doesn't bankrupt the Luan family. (To be continued......)
