Chapter 874: Befriending

"The Zhen family?"

When Liu Zheng heard these two words. The expression on his face changed.

At this time, a few people came out of the village, one who looked like a person in charge, and accompanied a few other people.

"Zhen Sanye, we only have these horses left in Wuji's stable, you see if they are enough, if they are enough, then buy them all, if they are not enough, I will transport some to other places."

"Then thank you, it should be enough to have these horses, after all, we don't want to form an army, just equip some carriages and camel some food, alas, you also know, recently Yuan Xi's guy asked us for food, where will we have so much food for a while, we can only go to the surrounding counties to raise it."

Zhen Yao appeared in the Su family's horse house for the Su family's horses.

In fact, the Zhen family also buys and sells horses, but the Zhen family's business is mostly based on salt and iron, and the horse business is not as big as the Su family, and now is an extraordinary period, the Zhen family rarely goes to the north to buy horses, and can only buy some from the Su family nearby.

After all, in an emergency, they had to transport grain from some neighboring states and counties, and if they didn't have horses, they would be a little slower, and they could only go faster by using horse-drawn carts.

Zhen Yao and the steward of the Su family walked over from not far away.

Liu Zheng, Guo Jia and others happened to see Zhen Yao, of course, Liu Zheng at this time didn't know that the person not far away was the third master of the Zhen family he was looking for.

When I really wanted to come over with the steward of the Su family, I also saw Liu Zheng and others.

"Who are these?"

Zhen Yao took the initiative to look at Liu Zheng and the others, and then asked about Liu Zheng's identity.

The steward of the Su family didn't know Liu Zheng, but he also heard Su Quan say that these people were here to buy horses.

"These are also guests who came to our village to buy horses."

"Oh."

Zhen Yao nodded politely at Liu Zheng and the others, and after arching his hand, he didn't plan to pay attention to Liu Zheng.

But at this time, Liu Zheng didn't plan to forget it like this, he heard from Su Quan's mouth that the horse in the village was from the Zhen family, so Liu Zheng knew that the person in front of him was likely to be from the Zhen family.

He wanted to catch the line of the Zhen family, so this was an opportunity.

"This brother, I'm sorry."

"Huh?"

Liu Zheng suddenly spoke, but Zhen Yao's expression looked at Liu Zheng, and he was a little curious, what did Liu Zheng mean by suddenly speaking.

"I just heard from Su Quan that all the horses here were bought for Brother Tai?"

"Well, my Zhen family needs to transport a batch of goods recently, so I need some horses. Does this brother want to buy a horse too? ”

"Yes, I came to this village to buy horses, but now the horses here have been bought for my brother, and we have run away."

"Haha, that's really not a coincidence, how many horses do you want, if the number is not too much, I can give you some evenly."

"Forget it, it's not that you have to buy these horses, I just heard Su Quan say that the person who bought these horses is a member of the Zhen family, and I have long admired the name of the Zhen family in Zhongshan, so I want to make friends, maybe you and I can still have some business contacts and work together."

Liu Zheng wanted to connect with the people of the Zhen family first, so he could only talk to Zhen Yao with the courage to do so.

As soon as Zhen Yao heard that Liu Zheng was also a businessman, he was interested, at this time, the Zhen family was just going to collect grain and grass in the counties around the next door, and it was good to say that the Zhen family's business methods could be collected, but outside Jizhou, the Zhen family's manpower could not be reached.

The person in front of him was not a merchant from Jizhou at first glance, so Zhen Yao was very interested in chatting with Liu Zheng, in case he could really get a lot of grain and grass from Liu Zheng's hands, but it also solved the urgent need of the Zhen family.

"Where is this brother from?"

Zhen Yao was interested in Liu Zheng's identity, so he opened his mouth to ask Liu Zheng.

Liu Zheng knew that Zhen Yao's words were actually to find out Liu Zheng's identity, and then guess where Liu Zheng was from, which family member, if Liu Zheng's identity was noble enough to arouse Zhen Yao's idea, he would be able to let the Zhen family and Liu Zheng cooperate.

For this, Liu Zheng had already made some preparations, and before Zhen Yao could speak again, Liu Zheng had already spoken directly to Zhen Yao.

"In the case of the Mi family in Xuzhou."

Liu Zheng naturally couldn't tell his true identity, if he let Zhen Yao and the people of the Su family know that the man standing in front of him was the emperor of the Southern Han Dynasty, they wouldn't be scared.

Without saying his real name, and attracting the attention of the Zhen family, Liu Zheng could only think of the identity of the Mi family in Xuzhou.

After all, the Xuzhou Mi family is quite famous in the way of business, even if the Mi family's business does not involve the place of Jizhou, but the Mi family has the experience of going north to Youzhou to do business in the open sea.

These Zhen and Su families in Zhongshan County are all doing business in Jizhou and Youzhou, and they have more or less heard of the name of the Mi family in Xuzhou.

Sure enough, as soon as he heard that Liu Zheng was a member of the Mi family in Xuzhou, not only Zhen Yao's face changed, but even the Su family steward who didn't care much about Liu Zheng just now also changed his face slightly at this time.

"Xuzhou Mi family, you are not Liu ...... Isn't it mainly active in the south, how did you come to Zhongshan County, Jizhou? ”

The reputation of the Mi family is not small for Zhen Yao, after all, the original Mi family controlled the entire business of Xuzhou, and even extended its tentacles to Jingzhou and Yangzhou.

Later, he even relied on Liu Zheng to do business in Qingzhou and Youzhou.

It's just that the pace of expansion has only slowed down recently, but the momentum of the Mi family is clear to both the Zhen family and the Su family.

"Like Brother Tai, our Mi family wants to buy some horses, but there are no horses in the south, so we can only come to the north to make luck."

Liu Zheng explained casually, and Zhen Yao didn't doubt it, after all, there were indeed no horses in the south, and most of the transportation was by water.

"Then Your Excellency, you are in the right place, our Su family, but the biggest horse dealer in the neighborhood, ask them to buy horses, they can get you as many horses as you want."

"yes, it looks like I'm not looking for the wrong person."

"It turned out to be a member of the Mi family, disrespectful and disrespectful, I didn't know the identity of my brother Tai before, I was a little sluggish, please don't be surprised."

The steward of the Su family, after hearing Liu Zheng's words at this time, was a lot more polite to Liu Zheng, and took the initiative to come up and make friends with Liu Zhengpan.

At this time, the two sides had some contact, and immediately began to take Liu Zheng together to introduce the horses in this Zhuangzi.
