Chapter 19 Soft City Selling Horses

Chapter 19 Soft City Selling Horses
The imperial capital of Nanjin has a nice name: Roucheng.

There are rumors that Emperor Nanjin named the city after Rou because of a woman he loved.

Unable to love, never to forget.

Lian Zhi led nearly thirty horses into the city gate, causing quite a commotion.

First of all, she is a little girl who is only a little taller than a horse's leg.Secondly, horses are such a rare and precious thing, yet she has a herd? !

Lian Zhi is the face of a nouveau riche, carrying valuables around the market, can she not attract people's covetousness?

What's more, she looks weak and deceptive.

On a stall near the city gate, there are animal furs.The stall owner shook a piece of cowhide, and yelled: "Animal hide! Newly beaten animal hide!"

As soon as he looked up, he saw a little girl standing in front of his booth.Behind the little girl was a mass of tall horses.

The horses had gray manes, black manes, and orange manes.

When the stall owner stared at the horse with his mung bean eyes, Lian Zhi spoke.

"Boss, do you accept horses?"

The owner of the stall next door with a feather duster in his hand heard this, and immediately approached with a smile, and said to the fur owner, "Hahaha! Old Jiang, when did you start buying and selling horses!"

The mung bean eye fur stall owner's hands trembled, and the cowhide fell to the ground, stirring up dust under his feet. "Damn you! Don't talk nonsense! Buying and selling horses, I don't want my head anymore?!" Turning his head, he waved his hands eagerly, driving Lian Zhi away.

"Where did you come from, little girl, hurry up and get away, don't come to amuse me!"

After finishing speaking, he picked up the cowhide on the ground and trembled again.

Lian Zhi was choked by the dust, so she had to take a few steps back and turn her gaze to other stalls.

She still can't believe it, horses are so scarce and precious things, no one has the guts to take the risk to buy them?
After asking several booths in a row, everyone avoided them.

He deeply felt that this little girl who had just entered the city might have something wrong with her mind.Who sells horses on the street in broad daylight? !
The largest restaurant in Roucheng, on the third floor of Yanyu Building, a person leaned his arm on the window.

"Tell me, where did she get such strong horses?"

The man standing at the window waving his fan chuckled, "Dong Ming, don't you have bad eyesight, can't you see the brand on that horse's ass?"

While the fan was shaking, it could be found that the fan bones were silvery white, and the material of the fan was not bamboo, but metal.

Dong Ming withdrew his arm from the window, and snorted coldly: "Hmph, the horse of the Imperial City Police Department deserves to be sold. Let's go, let's buy the horse and slap Ye Yan in the face."

Nangong Zixi closed the fan with a snap, blocking Dong Ming's way. "That man Yeyan holds the most grudges, why do you bother to provoke him?"

Dong Ming pressed Nangong Zixi's arm down, and raised his chin: "Why, I am a dignified young master of Nanjin, are you still afraid that he will fail?! If I don't mess with him, he won't join me in the court meeting?" He rolled up his sleeves and walked out of the private room.

The two gray-clothed attendants at the door of the private room bent down and followed closely.

Nangong Zixi shook his head, the tails of his slender eyes moved with interest.He didn't go out with Dong Ming, but turned around and sat in Dong Ming's position just now.

Looking down, I saw that the little girl downstairs had tied the reins of the leading horse to the tree stump at the entrance of the alley.She also sat without image on the stone where the old men who chatted in the alley on weekdays sat, her small shoulders shrugged.

At this time, Dong Ming, who was downstairs, had already walked over, thinking that the little girl was crying.

"Little girl, don't be sad, I bought all these horses."

As soon as Dong Ming finished speaking, the little girl with her head lowered raised her face, her red lips and white teeth were filled with joy, how could she seem to be crying? !
Lian Zhi asked uncertainly: "What you said is true?! Don't go back on your word!"

With that said, he stood up abruptly, untied the rein from the tree stump and handed it to Dong Ming. "No, here you are, a total of 28 horses. It will be cheaper for you, um~ give me [-] copper coins."

Lian Zhi's offer stunned Dong Ming, and even the two attendants behind Dong Ming burst out laughing.

Five hundred copper coins can be exchanged for one silver coin, and five hundred silver coins can be exchanged for one gold coin.

The normal price of a horse is around five gold coins, and a good-looking horse can be sold for ten gold coins.

The string of horses that Lian Zhi is leading is of good quality, 28 horses, worth at least 150 gold coins.

But now, she actually said that she would sell it for [-] copper coins! !

Nangong Zixi at the window of the restaurant frowned, as if he had figured out something, and suddenly lost interest. "So that's the case~"

Dong Ming looked at the rein in his hand, a little dazed.He wasn't short of money, and he didn't want to bully this seemingly ignorant little girl.

"What? I want more? Then I can ask for less..." Lian Zhi continued, pointing her fingers, "I actually just want to use these horses to exchange some money for food, clothing, and accommodation."

Dong Ming couldn't listen anymore: "Little girl, where did you get these horses? You don't even know the value of horses?! These are enough to make you a rich man in Roucheng."

Where did you get the horse? This is the answer that everyone in the street wants to know.

Even Nangong Zixi, who had lost interest and was eating a pancake, raised his ears.

Lian Zhi rubbed the wrinkled skirt on her legs a little nervously. "I~ picked it up at the gate of a post station outside the city."

outside the city? !
station? !
Picked it up? !

Dong Ming's throat was blocked.I really want to ask Lian Zhi, are you sure that the horses at the gate of the station are not tied there by people resting?

Also, among these, there are many horses from the Imperial City Police Department.

This little girl is still alive? !
Without waiting for Dong Ming to ask, Lian Zhi went on to speak. "There was a fight in the station. The horses were scared away. I calmed them down."

"There are swords and swords in the station, bloody and bloody, I probably won't survive. I can't watch these horses starve to death outside, and I want to find a good home for them to sell."

Dong Ming grinned awkwardly.

He had never heard of horses starving to death in the wild.

Forget it, it doesn't matter.

"I see, I want all these horses. I won't lie to you, let me count 150 gold coins for you." Dong Ming waved his hand, and his attendant took out his purse, counted fifty gold coins and a gold ingot, and handed it over.

Lian Zhi took it with both hands with a smile, and smacked her lips looking at the sickle-shaped gold coin.He picked up the gold ingot and bit his teeth.

She can be considered to have seen people with money, and the first time she saw someone was gold.

So, she showed what it means to be ruthless.

"Thank you, see you again." Lian Zhi put the gold in her heart pocket, waved at Dong Ming, and jumped into the alley.

Dong Ming looked at the little figure from behind, and then looked down at the reins, feeling that something was wrong.

At this time, the attendant poked Dong Ming's arm and reminded: "Master, the one who just entered the city, can you see if it is Mr. Wu Ya from the Imperial City Police Department?"

Dong Ming looked up, and it was true.

I saw Wu Ya, who was usually full of vigor and murderous aura, was now in a mess.

Her hair was messy, and there were bloodstains all over her face and body.He staggered, as if injured.

"Hurry up, hurry up, go quickly. Get on the horse and hide in the alley, hurry up!" Dong Ming said, and he dodged into the alley first.

The alleys in Roucheng extend in all directions, and a small head sticks out at the bluestone alley three times away from the alley that Dong Ming entered.

Lian Zhi looked Wu Ya up and down. "Tsk tsk, it looks a bit miserable..."
