The evil sister-in-law dressed as a yandere boss

Chapter 550 Should I buy a horse or not?
Li Hui asked a waiter to watch, and he took Tao Zhen and Pei Zhan out together.

There is a very large goods yard in the north of Shanxi Town. It was built later and specializes in the trading of cattle, sheep and horses. There are many merchants with two beards, but there are also many barbarians.

The grasslands outside the pass are not unified, there are many tribes, and the people who come dress differently.

Li Hui said: "The daily transaction volume here is amazing."

Tao Zhen said: "So how long have you not been home to make money?"

Speaking of this, Li Hui also sighed and said: "I don't want to make more money. I will find a way to get Xuanxuan out first, so that my parents and grandmother can live a better life in the exile village in the future."

Tao Zhen said: "Yes, you have saved a lot now, right?"

Li Hui nodded and smiled mysteriously: "I'm lucky, He Liang has a lot of talents. This guy is very good at dealing with barbarians. I didn't know that he could also speak barbarian language. If nothing happens, he would come over and work as a second-hand dealer." , you can also make money.”

He sighed again: "As you said, this place is full of gold."

The three of them walked into the goods yard. Someone they knew greeted Li Hui and turned their attention to Pei Zhan and Tao Zhen.

The goods yard was a large circle surrounded by earthen walls, with small groups of people gathering inside. Li Hui took them to the middle, and sure enough he saw a few fine horses, and a few people dressed as barbarians standing on the horseback. On the side, Lin Shu and Wang San were watching the horses, and He Liang translated for them.

Tao Zhen came over and slapped Lin Shu. As soon as Lin Shu turned around and saw Tao Zhen, his face was filled with a smile: "Sister Tao Zi, you are finally here."

Tao Zhen nodded and briefly greeted them: "How is it?"

Lin Shu whispered: "They are all good horses. Look, they have more than 200 horses like this. They just want to sell them together, not just sell them."

Lin Shu looked very moved.

Tao Zhen asked: "How much?"

He Liang gestured with his fingers.

50 taels of silver is very cheap. Looking at He Liang's attitude, it can be cheaper.

Lin Shu said: "If we get this in Fucheng and Guan Nei, we can sell it at double the price."

Tao Zhen is also a little tempted, but she is very vigilant. She can think of such good things, and others can also think of them. She is not afraid that others will trick her outright, but she is afraid of pie in the sky.

Because no one is a fool, and there will be no pie in the sky. When you are greedy for petty gains, you will always suffer big losses.Therefore, Tao Zhen was extra cautious.

There are not many people here who can take such a big order. He Liang, Lin Shu and the others all work for Tao Zhen, and their little money is simply not enough to buy it. If they want to buy it, they still have to go to Tao Zhen.

Tao Zhen said that he wanted to go back and think about it. Even if they were reluctant to part with this sweet and savory thing, they could only give up temporarily.

They hadn't seen each other for a long time, so they asked for a private room in the restaurant and ordered a large table of dishes.

At the dinner table, everyone couldn't help but talk about the horses.

Tao Zhen said: "You are so tempted because these horses are cheaper than those on the market, right?"

He Liangdao: "It's a little cheaper, but the quality is high and the quantity is large. Whoever buys it can make a lot of money by reselling it. The person selling the horse is a noble of a tribe. Their tribe has just been destroyed by another tribe. He escaped with his family and planned to sell the horse for money and come to Dashun to live."

"Is it credible?" Tao Zhen asked again.

He Liang said: "I'll have someone check it out later. How about it? Shopkeeper Tao, I'll starve the bold to death and starve the timid to death. Do you want to do it? You are the only one who can eat here."

Tao Zhen drank tea calmly and turned to Pei Zhan: "What do you think?"

Pei Zhan shook his head: "The risk is too high, I don't recommend buying it."

Tao Zhen thought the same way. It would be fine if it was just a few dozen horses, but 200 was too much and the amount was too much. Maybe all the money Tao Zhen had earned over the years would be compensated. Although Tao Zhen liked money. , but she likes to do it steadily, just like selling beef jerky or pork.

"That's up to you." Tao Zhen said with a smile.

Brother Lu hissed.

He Liang asked him his opinion, and Brother Lu was very straightforward, just two words: "I won't do it." He didn't have that much cash, and he had the same idea as Tao Zhen. The risk was too great, and there were people around him. No one knows how to raise horses. These are living animals, and they cannot be killed and sold for meat. It would take a long time to sell them, which is not cost-effective.
Dice also said: "If you want to play, just buy a few. If you want more, you can't bear it."

He Liang and the others stopped mentioning it later. Tao Zhen thought they had given up, but not long after, Li Hui said that He Liang had contacted a businessman named Zhang. The man was very interested, but he could only eat half of it.

Money moves people's hearts.

It's a pity that Li Hui said both inside and outside his words.

In fact, Tao Zhen didn't know if buying a horse would work, and it was hard to say anything. She and Pei Zhan spent a day in Shanxi Town, and they bought two horses. Tao Zhen's was smaller, but very docile. After naming it Xiaoma, Pei Zhan said helplessly: "Let's call the one at home Xiaoma."

Tao Zhen was reluctant to give her a name, so she thought for a while and said, "Then let's call her Xiao Bai."

After all, it was a white horse. Pei Zhan looked at his horse and asked with interest, "What's the name of my horse?"

Tao Zhen: "Xiao Hei?"

Pei Zhan said: "That dog in Ningzhou is called Xiaohei."

Tao Zhen "..."

Finally, because he bought it in Shanxi Town, Tao Zhen decided to name it Xiaoshan.

Pei Zhan "..."

Pei Zhan can ride a horse. How could the young master who only knew about eating, drinking and having fun in the capital back then not know how to ride a horse?

He confidently taught Tao Zhen how to ride a horse. Tao Zhen learned very seriously and had a strong understanding, but when he actually sat on the horse, he was still very nervous. Fortunately, Xiaobai was very gentle, so he learned it tremblingly. One afternoon, Tao Zhen was riding well. She was very excited and decided to come back tomorrow.

The two of them went there again the next day, and it was another day. Tao Zhen could ride around on his own. Shanxi Town is close to the grassland outside the pass, with a wide view and flat terrain. It is very pleasant to ride a horse and whip in this season. matter.

The two of them were so happy that they ran away, sat on the grass, took out dry food and ate some. When they were about to go back, they heard a scream in the distance.

The two people looked at each other and quickly stood up.After finding a place to tie up the horse, he ran towards the hill where the screams came from.

It is said to be a hilltop, but it is actually some small earth mounds. The two of them climbed up the earth mound carefully, and their field of vision instantly broadened. There was a path under the earth mound. Because of the terrain, Tao Zhen and the others did not look high when they came up, but The road was about ten meters below. There were several carriages parked on the road, and several corpses were lying around the carriages.

The murderers were a few men who were not well dressed and had their faces covered. They looked like bandits. They surrounded the carriage, looted everything inside, and then rode away.

It wasn't until those people walked away that Tao Zhen breathed a sigh of relief. Pei Zhan said, "I'll go down and take a look."

Tao Zhen was a little nervous: "Be careful."

Pei Zhan went down the slope, searched around the carriage, and came up quickly.

"It should be the businessmen passing by. They are all dead."

Tao Zhen said: "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time, let's go."

The two soon returned to the town.

When Wang San saw them, he smiled: "Are you having fun?"

When he first learned to ride a horse, he wished he could ride a horse every day.

Tao Zhen looked unhappy, Pei Zhan said: "Go and report to the official."

Wang San was stunned: "What happened?"

When Pei Zhan explained the matter, Wang San said with a solemn expression: "I heard before that the road has been uneasy recently, and there are robbers killing people and stealing goods. I didn't expect it to be true."

Wang San thought Li Hui and the others had said it, and Li Hui and the others thought Wang San and Lin Shu had said it, so they missed it. No one told Tao Zhen or Pei Zhan. Fortunately, nothing happened.
