One Thought Feixian

Chapter 330 Thousand Horse Hall

This time, Gu Heng finally saw through Gan Tang's ugly face completely, no longer backed down, but broke out suddenly.

He released a huge majesty, momentum, and forced the past fiercely. Every word was like a thunderbolt penetrating into Gantang's ears and exploding in his mind, making him tremble all over and unable to control himself. .

He never imagined that a mere family of merchants would have such a great ability, not only to have good relations with the Governor's Mansion, but also to have connections with those rich and powerful in Kyoto, so that they could ask the Censor to do things and impeach unhealthy trends.

"This Gantang, ever since he was transferred by Huoyun City Lord to guard the city gate, he has acted recklessly. I don't know how many benefits he has gained. He is not greedy enough to swallow a snake. Now it seems that he has encountered a hard stubble, and he is going to be in big trouble."

In front of the city gate, many onlookers originally showed sympathy to Gu Heng and the others, but they did not expect that things would turn around. Looking at Gan Tang with a dull face, he felt very happy.

"Young Master Gu, calm down, calm down, I was just joking with you just now, how dare you be arrogant in front of you..."

After a long time, Gan Tang came back to his senses, quickly apologized, and then shouted to the surrounding guards: "Why don't you step back quickly and welcome Mr. Gu into the city?"

All the soldiers retreated immediately and lined up neatly in front of the city gate, forming a welcome formation.

The cloud crossbow on the city tower also loosened and moved away from the direction of attack.

This tense situation was dramatically resolved.

Human nature is like this, they all like to bully the weak and fear the hard.

Sometimes, the weaker you are, the more others will push forward, but when you become strong, you can be respected and feared.

At this time, Gan Tang pretended to be calm, but he was very panicked and regretted, he should have accepted it as soon as it was good, and should not continue to blackmail and blackmail more benefits.

However, he has always had a good eye for seeing people. Since guarding the city gates, he has used the same tricks, tried and tested repeatedly, obtained countless benefits, and won the appreciation of the city lord.

Based on the words, deeds and demeanor of this group of people, he guessed the origin of the Gu family. It seemed that they were just ordinary merchants with rich money and no great background at all. That's why he took them as a bully and blackmailed them ruthlessly. .

But he didn't expect to be mistaken, the real person doesn't show his likeness.

"This...isn't this bullying? You obviously have such a big backstage. If you just say it, I'll let you in. Why bother to tease me..."

The more he thought about it, the more wronged he felt, and at the same time, he was also very afraid that this matter would become a big issue, otherwise he would not be able to eat and walk around.

"We don't have business documents. Are you afraid that the higher authorities will blame you for your negligence?" Meng Chang sneered.

"Young Master Gu is here to visit Huoyun City. It is our Huoyun City's honor. If you want to do business and pass documents, it is not a joke."

He said righteously, with a flattering and sycophantic look, and the change in his attitude was astounding.

He obviously wanted to try his best to save the situation and eliminate the dissatisfaction and grudges that Mr. Gu had towards him.

"Master Gu, this is your money, I... I dare not accept it without authorization!"

Immediately, he took out the two bags of silver that he had just accepted and handed them back. Although his heart ached, he still had to give up for the sake of his wealth and life.

"No need, my lord is not short of money. After sending it out, I have no habit of taking it back. You can accept the 1000 taels of silver, too. Keep your eyes open in the future, so as not to offend people who shouldn't be offended, and attract money." Curse."

Gu Heng gave up and didn't take back the money.

This is the style that a son of a wealthy family should have, rich and powerful, spend a lot of money, without blinking an eye.

The purpose of their trip was to buy horses, and they didn't want to cause extra trouble. They had to fabricate these identities. Now that Gantang has been suppressed, and the troubles are solved, enough is enough and they stop in time. There is no need to make a big deal out of it.

So he didn't take back the money, otherwise Gan Tang would be worried and uneasy, which is not a good thing.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Gu has a noble status and generous spending. Naturally, I don't care about this small amount of money. I am reckless." Gan Tang finally breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that the matter was finally settled: "Mr. Gu, and What order?"

"I'm a newcomer here, and I don't know the market price when I'm here to buy horses in Fire Cloud City. In this case, you send someone to guide us." Gu Heng thought for a while and said.

"It's easy, Zhao Datou, you go to lead the way for Mr. Gu, don't neglect the distinguished guest, do you understand?" Gan Tang nodded, then turned his head and said loudly.

"Yes!"

Then I saw a young man among the group of soldiers responding, this man looks honest and honest, his body is not strong, but his head is a little big, no wonder he is called "Zhao Datou".

He stepped forward and said respectfully: "Young Master Gu, please!"

Gu Heng brushed off his clothes, then swaggered and led the crowd into Fire Cloud City.

"Fortunately, Mr. Gu doesn't remember the faults of villains and doesn't care about me, otherwise I will definitely suffer this time!" Gan Tang looked at Gu Heng's back, still feeling a little lingering.

He weighed the two bags of silver and the stack of bank notes in his hand, thinking whether he should restrain himself in the future.

"However, these wealthy sons are moody. Who knows if they will settle their scores after the fall. I think it's better to report this matter to the city lord."

Thinking of this, he made a decision: "You guard the city gate carefully, don't let a suspicious person go, I will go back as soon as I go."

After speaking, he turned around and entered the city gate, and ran towards the city lord's mansion.

"Mr. Gu, you have come to the right place to buy horses in our Fire Cloud City. There is a huge horse market here. In the west of the city, many famous horse dealers have branches there. There are many horses and different types. There are almost any variety."

Zhao Datou led the way and introduced.

In Huoyun City, there are many shops, there are bursts of cries, and there are many products, and there are even some things that have never been seen before, which are very rare.

Bang, clang, clang, clang...on the wide street, there are crowds of people, and there are martial arts walking around everywhere. It is a bustling scene. There are many guards wearing armor and holding spears, coming and going, patrolling everywhere ,maintain security.

"Today is the city lord's birthday, and the city lord's mansion held a grand banquet to celebrate grandly, so many city guards were sent out to patrol and strengthen their guard to prevent the cult disciples from taking the opportunity to cause chaos."

Zhao Datou immediately explained.

Gu Heng nodded, guessing that it was the case.

Zhao Datou led a group of people through several streets and river bridges to the west of the city.

As soon as they approached the west of the city, everyone smelled a strong smell of horses in their noses, and heard the horses' cry, and then they saw huge stables in front of them. There are many huge horse farms with many horses.

There are at least dozens of shops operating horse business here.

At this time, many businessmen came here to buy horses, carefully selected them, and there were special personnel beside them to explain.

"Mr. Gu, the biggest horse shop here is called Qianmatang. It is said that it was opened by a dignitary in Kyoto. The backstage is extremely tough. Among them are peerless masters who have reborn themselves. Even the city lord dare not offend. Their business is very wide. , even court horses can be obtained.”

Zhao Datou introduced it to Gu Heng.

"Really? Then go to the Qianma Hall to have a look." Gu Heng decided, and then walked to a huge door shop. There were three big characters engraved on the top of the door shop, "Qianma Hall", vigorous Powerful, you can tell at a glance that it is from the master's handwriting.

"Young master, what kind of horse do you want to buy? Our Qianmatang is the largest horse shop in Fire Cloud City. We have all kinds of horses, and the price is fair. No one can deceive you."

As soon as he entered the door, several grooms in gray clothes came over. Seeing that the pedestrians were led by officers and soldiers, they were shocked.

"Really? Do you have dragon blood horses?" Gu Heng asked.

When the grooms heard this, their faces changed immediately, revealing expressions of horror.

This dragon blood horse, known as the emperor's mount, the king of horses, does not really contain dragon blood, but has the blood of a dragon, very majestic, very noble, I don't know how many times stronger than the wild special lion mane horse, captive bred Among the royal horse farms of the Central Dynasty, there are very few of them, and ordinary people have no chance to see them in their lifetime.

A dragon blood horse can only recognize one owner in its lifetime.

Once the owner dies, the dragon blood horse will not live alone, but will be buried with him.

Now that Gu Heng wanted to buy a dragon blood horse as soon as he opened his mouth, his tone was a bit too big, as if he was deliberately finding fault.

"Dragon blood horse, the emperor's mount, the king of horses, of course we can get it in Qianmatang, but the price cannot be measured by money. Even if you go bankrupt, you probably won't be able to afford it."

One of the grooms regained his composure and said in a cold voice.

"Even dragon blood horses can be obtained. It seems that the Thousand Horse Hall is really from the hands of the nobles in Kyoto. It has a huge background. It is very likely that it is the property of a certain prince!"

Gu Heng's eyes flashed, and he immediately thought of it in his heart.

In the Central Dynasty, the nine princes took over the heir, each with its own strengths, and they established huge forces one after another, so as to win over the endless resources of the world and use them for me.

The eighth prince, Huangfu Shang, even established the "Eighth Commercial Firm". It was rumored that he wanted to build a huge business empire and use business to seize the throne.

These Gu Hengs all know clearly that if they want to get the Dragon Blood Horse, they can only get through the relationship of the Nine Princes, otherwise it is absolutely impossible.

So he guessed that this Qianma Hall was an industry established by a certain prince of the Central Dynasty.

"I don't really want to buy a dragon blood horse, but I just want to find out the background of your Qianmatang. It really deserves its reputation!"

He was not angry at the groom's tone, but said, "I have a deal for hundreds of horses to discuss with your Qianmatang. It depends on whether your Qianmatang can take it."
