Inside the tent.

Shang Xiuxun was silent for a moment after hearing Richard's sneer, and then asked softly, "So you mean, it's not actually a good deal?" ”

Isn't it just a good deal, it's just a loss! What's more, if Duzun Fort gets these 100,000 horses, it will definitely speed up the uprising, so that the Great Sui will be disrupted, and the situation in Chang'an City, as the center, will also be even more chaotic, and even may lead to the early arrival of the absolute god, and Richard's layout and preparation for so long will all be in vain!

After thinking for a moment, Richard thought about it and said with a smile: "Mall owner, dare to ask how many horses are in the Pegasus Ranch?" ”

"Nearly 200,000 horses."

"Two hundred thousand horses, that sounds like a lot. But 100,000 horses were sold at once, and there were still 100,000 adult horses, and the remaining horses were not much left except for young horses, old horses, and horses used for breeding. ”

Shang Xiuxun nodded, "If 100,000 adult horses are delivered to Duzun Castle, the remaining adult horses in the ranch are still about 20,000. ”

"Twenty thousand." A smile appeared on Richard's face, "Is it enough to sell the current Pegasus Ranch?" ”

Shang Xiuxun thought for a while, shook his head and said, "If it was before, it should be enough." But now, it must not be enough, and this spring alone, the ranch sold 16,000 horses. ”

Richard chuckled: "100,000 horses were sold to Duzun Castle, and they were all given back this year, but the silver had to be paid back in ten years." The reputation of the Pegasus Ranch has been established with great difficulty, and it must not be smashed because there are not enough horses in the pasture, so the silver given by Duzun Fort in the first few years must be used to buy horses from other pastures, and buy young horses to supplement the lack of horses in the pasture so many vacancies at once. At best, the amount of silver that can be earned is only in the last few years. I don't know what's so appealing about this kind of business. ”

"What's more, with the current influence of the Pegasus Club, why should the mall owner stick to this 100,000 horses? What is this, in the future, the Pegasus Ranch will be even stronger, and the Pegasus Club will become a grand event that people all over the world will flock to in the future, and a single Pegasus Club may be able to sell two, three, or even ten hundred thousand horses! ”

Shang Xiuxun was shocked when she heard this, Richard's words were like a slap in the face, so that the hesitation and doubt in her heart all disappeared at this moment, the purchase and sale of 100,000 horses seemed to be hesitant, but it was like fishing with all his might, and as Richard said, it would make Pegasus Ranch fall into a situation where there were no horses to sell and had to use the money to buy from other ranches.

As the owner of Pegasus Ranch, Shang Xiuxun has always had a kind of Pegasus Ranch is the first ranch in the world, and the horses of Pegasus Ranch are also the pride of the world's first-class horses, so she asked her to lower her head and buy horses from other ranches, which she can't do.

Moreover, if the silver in the previous years could only be used to buy horses, the amount of silver that could be earned from this transaction would be reduced by a few percent, and it would not be as much as imagined.

If it had been placed in the past, Shang Xiuxun might still be tempted to know this, but now that he has held several Pegasus Clubs and seen the potential of Pegasus Club, Shang Xiuxun's horizons have also become broadened. Now that the influence of the Pegasus Club is greater day by day, as long as the Pegasus Club is run well, why worry about the merchants from all over the world not coming? Why worry about not being able to sell horses?

Shang Xiuxun shouted outside the tent: "Ma Liu, invite me the guests of Duzun Castle!" ”

She immediately looked at Richard and said with a grateful face: "Ximengua, thank you." If it weren't for your words, I might have agreed to the people of the Castle of Independence. ”

"The mall owner is my friend, and this is what I should be." Richard said with a smile, and at the same time secretly said in his heart, after all, if I helped you, I helped myself.

Shang Xiuxun looked at Richard with more gratitude when she heard this, the idea of the Pegasus Club was first put forward by Richard and the people of the unknown team, and now Richard has analyzed the benefits and disadvantages of buying a horse in Duzun Fort for her in such a detailed way, so that she has made the most correct decision, in Shang Xiuxun's heart, Richard has become a chivalrous and courageous person who sticks a knife in the ribs for his friends.

She said seriously to Richard: "Ximenggua, as long as I, Shang Xiuxun, am still the owner of Pegasus Ranch, you will always be my friend of Pegasus Ranch!" ”

Richard nodded with a smile and said, "Mall owner, that, in fact, I came here this time for one thing. ”

Shang Xiuxun said heroically: "What's the matter? You may say that as long as it is a matter of the pasture, it will be on me! ”

"My two apprentices, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling, have you come to Pegasus Ranch?"

"So you're here to find an apprentice." Shang Xiuxun suddenly understood, and said with a dumb smile: "I thought something was wrong, the two young heroes are indeed in my ranch." I'll have someone take you there. ”

As he spoke, Shang Xiuxun called someone in from outside the camp tent and asked him to take Richard to Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling's camp tent.

Following this person out of the camp, he saw Ma Liu coming with a few people from Duzun Fort, and when he saw Richard, Ma Liu immediately bent down and clenched his fists, with a respectful smile on his face.

Seeing that Ma Liu was so respectful to Richard, several people in Duzun Fort couldn't help but look at Richard a few more times, when Ma Liu went to invite them just now, his attitude was not like this.

Leaving Shang Xiuxun's tent and walking all the way to the corner of Pegasus Town, Richard suddenly heard a fierce fight in front of him. Richard's heart moved, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace.

After bypassing a camp, I saw that in the vast grassland ahead, two figures collided fiercely, and these two people were none other than Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling.

I haven't seen each other for a long time, these two people's martial arts have made great progress, Xu Ziling's attainments in Tianshuang Fist have become more and more profound, and every move has a terrifying cold aura for a while, and a white frost has appeared in the grass around him.

And how Kou Zhong's Dai Sect had also practiced to an extremely advanced level, I saw that his left hand kept bending his fingers to calculate, and his eyes were firmly fixed on Xu Ziling, locking the qi in his whole body. Richard looked at it for a while, and found that how Kou Zhongdaizong calculated the time was four breaths, which was only less than a breath slower than him.

"Boom! Rumble! Rumble! ”

Relying on Dai Zong's ability to anticipate the enemy's opportunities, Kou Zhong frequently anticipated Xu Ziling's movements, and forced Xu Ziling to attack every time he was about to attack, but he had to change his moves temporarily, and even several times if Kou Zhong hadn't stopped it, he would inevitably be injured.

A quarter of an hour later, Xu Ziling waved his hand and said with a depressed face: "If you don't fight, you won't fight, you swordsmanship is a scoundrel, don't fight." ”

Kou Zhong immediately stopped his movements and put away his sword, and hooked his hand towards Xu Ziling with a smile, "Since you lost, you are willing to gamble and lose, and bring the things." ”

Xu Ziling untied the water bag on his waist and threw it to Kou Zhong, pouting and saying, "It's for you." I wouldn't have gambled with you if I knew it, and the wine I finally bought lost to you without drinking a sip. ”

Kou Zhong caught the water bag and smiled, "Then how about I give you a chance to win this wine back?" ”

"What?"

"Since this is a ranch, let's have a horse race, and if you win, we'll give you back the wine. If you lose, you owe me another jug of wine. ”

When Xu Ziling heard that it was not a martial arts competition, he immediately agreed, "Okay, bet!" It's just that there are no horses near Pegasus Town, where can we find this horse? ”

Richard smiled at this time and said, "How about I find it for you?" ”
