Chapter 7: Business Wizard Lu Bu
Lu Ying looked strange, looking at the younger brother in front of him who obviously had an inappropriate top, as if he had seen a ghost.
His original intention was that the land price should be higher, so that Chen Kang could be given room to consider, so that he could delay a moment or two, and wait for Li Zhong to move the rescue troops here, and then use the thunderous force to deal with the county order of the common people, never expected that Lu Bu would negotiate this business, and this Chen county order would increase the price of 200 gold, 800 gold, and sell it for 1200 gold?
Could it be that this brother of mine is really a business wizard? Let him learn literature and practice martial arts, is it subservient to him?
"Big brother, what are we going to do next?" Lu Bu asked with a smug expression.
"You go back to rest first, such a large amount of money is not something that this small county order can take out for a while, and when he contacts you again, you don't have to tell me again, take the real estate title deed, and trade with him."
Lu Ying suddenly said that the suddenness of the incident had already affected his train of thought.
Lu Bu stood there without moving, his huge body was bent on his back, constantly rubbing his palms, and looking at Lu Ying with his eyes.
"Haven't you always hated the lightness of the machete? When the 1,200 gold is really in hand, I will find someone to make you a good armor, and then I will build you a good weapon. ”
How could Lu Ying not see what Lu Bu was thinking, it was nothing more than that the child wanted a piece of candy after making a meritorious service, and besides, Lu Bu was beaten twice, and he couldn't treat his brother badly.
Sure enough, Lu Bu frowned and said, "Okay, big brother, I'll go back to the room, and you can just wait for the gold at home."
As soon as Lu Bu left, it didn't take long for the little guy to come forward and report: "There are three people waiting outside the door, and one of them calls himself Guan Yu."
At this time, it was getting late, and Lu Ying had already gone to bed, but when he heard that Guan Yuguo really came as promised, although he didn't know why there were three people waiting, he was also very happy, and hurriedly put on his shoes and went to the door to greet him in person.
Walking to the door of the Lu Mansion, Lu Ying saw Guan Yu who was waiting, and stepped forward with an unetiquette hug, and then said to Guan Yu with emotion: "Yun Chang, Yun Chang, I have been waiting for so hard these two days." Fu hugged his fists to the two beside Guan Yu and said: "The two of them are dressed in green clothes but have marching boots, they are not literati or martial artists, but the businessmen are also?" ”
One of them stepped forward and replied: "The two of us are horse merchants in Youzhou, my name is Su Shuang, and the other is Zhang Shiping." Along the way, I heard that Yun Chang said that his new recognition of the lord is as fine as silk, and I am curious about who the lord is recognized by a high-minded and arrogant person like Yun Chang.
Then the man smiled again: "It's just that this heart is as fine as silk is really an exaggeration, why don't you look at your own shoes?" ”
Hearing this, everyone looked at Lu Ying's shoes, only to see that Lu Ying's left shoe was on top of his right foot, and his right shoe was on top of his left foot.
Lu Ying was also embarrassed: "When I heard that Yun Chang was coming, I was very excited, and I didn't want to go left and right. ”
When Guan Yu heard this, he bowed and said: "I am a thief in the mountains, I know you to be able to correct yourself, and today I entered the city and listened to the matter of 'Lu Yingxun', Jun compared me with Ji Bu, and called me a person who promised a thousand gold, I was already panicked, and I just fell back to greet each other, and there was no retribution in the next, only a warm blood willing to be offered to you"
Lu Ying helped Guan Yu up, held Guan Yu's hand and said to the three of them, "Please come to the hall to talk about it." He turned to his own servant and arranged: "Light more candles in the inner hall, I want to talk to the three of them at night."
Not long after, the three of them had arrived in the inner hall of the Lu family, although the night was dark and deep, but the room was exceptionally bright.
"Lord, Brother Zhang and Brother Su are all known to me about the robbery before, when I saw that the two of them were talking extraordinary, I personally stepped forward to talk to the two, after learning what happened to me, Brother Zhang and Brother Su were very emotional, not only did not blame me, but provided food for me to live, it is really a righteous and awe-inspiring person, not that busy businessman" Guan Yu preemptively said.
Lu Ying didn't reprimand Guan Yu either, because he knew that Guan Yu was secretly mentioning him, in this era, the idea of valuing agriculture over business is serious, and businessmen are one of the most lowly professions, Guan Yu means to suggest that Lu Ying should not be too frivolous with the two, but as Lu Ying who has crossed over, he neither has the idea of belittling businessmen in this era, but also knows the power of these two people.
These two are really successful people, they go south and north, and they are mainly engaged in the business of selling horses.
There were four main types of horses at that time.
The first is the horse used by Gongsun Chan's "White Horse Yicong". This kind of horse is produced in the area of Youzhou and Bingzhou; At the beginning, the Wuhuan State of the Donghu Alliance often used cavalry to harass the border, and their cavalry speed was much faster than that of the Central Plains, and then the guards thought about it, and if they couldn't beat it, they would join! So, he began to introduce these horses and crossed them with the excellent horses on his side, let's call them Wuhuan horses, which have low weight, average endurance, fast speed, strong explosiveness, and average stature, and the famous horse "Lu" is this kind of horse.
The second type is the horse used by Dong Zhuo's "Xiliang Iron Ride". This kind of horse is produced in Liangzhou in China, and the foreign origin is in Dawan in the Western Regions. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty beat the Xiongnu to the ground at that time, and as soon as the Xiongnu paid tribute, hey, this horse came over! This kind of horse we will call Liangzhou horse, this kind of horse has high load, high endurance, average speed, strong explosiveness, tall stature, famous horse "Red Rabbit", "Jueying", "Shine Night Jade Lion" are all this kind of horse, macho only!
The third type, Liu Yan (Yizhou pastoral period), Zhang Lu cavalry horses.... If they're cavalry, too... This kind of horse is produced in Jingzhou and Yizhou, and it is purely domestic. Due to the complex terrain of the local area, this kind of horse is like an off-road vehicle, which can adapt to various mountain roads, and is mainly used as a pack horse for logistics in peacetime, and can also ride a sergeant at a critical moment to kill the enemy..... This horse has a high load, high endurance, slow speed, small bursts, and a small stature .... There are no famous horses at the moment...
The fourth type, the southern horse, which is different from the above brand horses, is a "high imitation" horse. At that time, Yangzhou and Jiaozhou did not produce good horses, they were introduced from all over the country, and the horses introduced were basically crossbred, and then they were crossbred locally......
The two people in front of him were the senior agents of Wuhuan Horse, and in that era when the traffic was extremely inconvenient, the two of them went back and forth between Bingzhou, Youzhou, and Jizhou to sell horses, and by the way, they sold some ironware.
In the original history, Liu Bei's first bucket of fortune funds was provided by two people, which is modern, it is a transnational arms dealer and a political investor, do you say it is powerful?
Lu Ying looked at the two of them seriously, and said solemnly: "I don't know what the two of you are talking about?" ”
Su Shuang replied seriously: "I heard that Ziliang abandoned his family and sold land for Yun Chang and other brothers, it is really a high righteousness, and our brothers admire it very much, and I am willing to pay for the land sold by Ziliang, according to 1000 gold."
This is Su Shuang's vision, in history, he can invest so much money and good horses in Liu Bei, and he will not be stingy with the 200 gold to get a good relationship at this time.
Lu Ying laughed: "Brother Su is kind, I have received it in my heart, but the real estate at home is extremely fertile, and it is really a good field, so Brother Ling has sold it for 1,200 gold."
Su Shuang was shocked: "Really!?" ”
"Really," Lu Ying confirmed.
"How old is Brother Ling?" "Just over eighteen"
"Young Talent! Young talents! Brother Ling is really a business wizard! If you can, please recommend Ziliang! Double wishes to give 100 gold thanks," Su Shuang said very seriously.
"Late tonight, please rest first, and let my brother meet Brother Su tomorrow" Lu Ying replied with a smile, Brother Lu Bu, if you are really a business wizard, do you see? When no one else was there, he made another 100 gold for his family.
He really should be a good student to cultivate his business talent.
