"Yes, this is a unique roasted tea in Youzhou, and the tea shops in Youzhou City are all sold, and you can find it on the street."

Shan Xiongxin took a few sips of tea and felt that the person in front of him was not simple, and he was more shrewd than many businessmen he had seen.

If he drinks a tea, he will tell the tea shop, and if he likes to drink this taste, he will know where to buy such tea when he leaves the city lord's mansion.

I have to say that the person in front of him is really too shrewd.

"My name is Xu Laifu and I am the person in charge of the business station of the commercial bank, what do you call it objectively?"

"One word."

Xu Laifu had already listened to the introduction of the welcoming woman just now, and the second meeting was to ask directly to the point: "How many horses does the single shopkeeper want to buy?" ”

Shan Xiongxin pondered for a moment and said, "Twenty thousand horses." ”

Thinking about it, he added: "War horse." ”

Xu Laifu immediately took out the list and said, "The horses we are selling this time are all good war horses, with a market price of 35 yuan per horse and a total price of 700,000 yuan. ”

Shan Xiongxin feels that it is really expensive, the horse must be a good horse, who doesn't know that these horses are Turkic, and they can't be envied, who makes them incapable of winning it.

Xu Laifu is good at observing words and feelings, and seems to see that this price is a little unacceptable to the other party, but he still grabbed the other party's words and said: "Sole shopkeeper, 700,000 yuan is really not expensive, I'll calculate it for you." ”

"Our war horses are fed with concentrate feed, to ensure that every horse is strong, and we can provide five days of feed before you take away these horses, counting this cost, you will not lose, to Chang'an Luoyang to change hands each horse at least five to ten times."

In order to keep the value of the war horse, Xu Laifu has said all kinds of benefits, and the feed is really a real discount.

"The price is still a bit expensive, and I hope that 20,000 horses can be more discounted." Shan Xiongxin listened to Xu Laifu's introduction, and he was embarrassed to talk about the price.

The price of war horses is inherently expensive, and people like them who know horses know a lot about the cattle and horses of the Sui Kingdom.

If he bought the mount by himself, one hundred and eighty times would not be a problem, but now it is on behalf of Wagangzhai, and it involves such a large amount, so he has to be cautious.

Xu Laifu didn't care much about the price, but said: "Shopkeeper Shan, I don't know if I have time to visit the cattle and horse market in Youzhou?" ”

"There's time." Shan Xiongxin thought about it and agreed.

The cattle and horse shop in Youzhou is in the suburbs outside Youzhou City, Xu Laifu came to the cattle and horse market with Shan Xiongxin, which is different from the normal cattle and horse market, and all the stables with sheds are in sight.

The scale is very large, and the usual cattle and horse markets have some sheds if they have the conditions, and the horses are directly enclosed together if they are not conditional.

And if they didn't mention that this was a cattle and horse market, they would think that this was a place to raise horses.

Actually, it really is.

The main body of the cattle and horse market in Youzhou is provided for breeding, and the horses raised are artificially fed, and the horses provided in northern Liaoning are grazing, which saves costs, yes, but also destroys the grassland.

After Xu Laifu and the two came in, there were still people in the large stables to trade, and it was not suitable for them to go over to join in the fun.

After entering the cattle and horse market, there are sales staff in the market who come to explain to the visitors.

Xu Laifu and Shan Xiongxin were listening to introductions.

"The 40,000 war horses in Youzhou reserve are in great demand, the horses are all good war horses here, the horse's hooves are well protected, and they are all experienced in a hundred battles and are not easy to be frightened.

The salesperson worked hard to introduce that Shan Xiongxin was a good hand in this, and he could tell the good and bad horses at a glance.

The horses in my eyes are excellent, and it seems that thirty-five times a horse is really not expensive now.

"The price of horses will change slightly every day, and tomorrow it may be sold for forty times, and a total of five thousand war horses have been sold in these two days, and I heard that there is a big order."

Shan Xiong confidently said that the big order would not be me, but he soon learned that it was not, and the salesman Meitian talked about these things, and it was not a secret how many horses were sold.

Because the sale of 40,000 war horses will not last long, he will not say that there will be statistics announced.

These are all for the purpose of providing reference for merchants.

Shan Xiongxin walked around the cattle and horse market, and the boutique BMWs in the racecourse are all different and have a strong attraction to the generals.

As soon as I inquired about the price, the boutique BMW was all starting at a hundred times, and I could only look at it and see it.

Xu Laifu didn't tell Shan Xiongxin about the horse order, and directly sent people back to the inn, in order to give them space to think.

Shan Xiongxin needs to think about it, the price of thirty-five guan is not cheap, he already understands the price of horses in Youzhou today, and ordinary horses have to start at thirty.

The horses traded daily are all from the northern Liaobei region, and there is really a difference between horses that have not been trained and carefully fed.

After Xu Laifu returned to the City Lord's Mansion, he immediately sent the news to Wei Li, and the intention to buy 20,000 war horses must be a force.

After Wei Li got the news, he immediately sent someone to investigate, and the name of Shan Yan naturally couldn't find anything, but their convoy was still stationed in the barracks.

Red Peony's spy personnel were dispatched and soon grasped the first-hand information, and the identities of these people from Wagangzhai were immediately known.

It's really hard for these people to hide it.

After the investigation was clear, Li De also knew about the forces from Wagangzhai, Shan Xiongxin that he had seen it, business was business, and he had nothing to interfere with.

Shan Xiongxin went back to the suburban inn during the period of the good inn and told him about the matter, after all, there were Li Mi's people with him.

When he returns to the inn in the city, he won't be the only one.

So he contacted the Chamber of Commerce for the second time, and Shan Xiongxin brought a few more people.

Xu Laifu is the same reception, the price is not discussed at all, but in the cattle and horse market to see other people's business transactions.

In a day's time, the horses were sold in front of them, and at this rate, these horses may be sold in less than half a month.

But Shan Xiongxin and the others still didn't look a little anxious.

Shan Xiongxin was not in a hurry, he was waiting for the people from Wagang to go to other state capitals to conduct market research, and when they were anxious, the spies from Wagang finally came back.

"The market price of a high-grade war horse is 30 to 45 times, and the average horse's price is almost stable from 20 to 35 times."

"Do you think you can accept the price of Zhiyouzhou?"

Shan Xiongxin actually knew it in his heart, if you want to resell, the price of horses in Youzhou is slightly higher, but the real situation knows that there is a shortage of horses in Sui State, and now I am afraid that only Youzhou can provide such horses.

The next day, Shan Xiongxin found Xu Laifu to complete the horse transaction, and the money was directly taken away by the vanguard after the camp was counted.

The business was negotiated, Shan Xiongxin sent someone to send the letter back to Wagang, and the transportation of horses could not rely on only the fifty of them.

The handover of the horses is complete, and the news is impossible to hide.

When Wagangzhai brought the horses back, the forces of all parties hurriedly sent people to Youzhou.
