Chapter 61: Buying a Horse

"Phoenix, phoenix, phoenix wings gilded boring!" Wang Fatzi walked into the house, holding his body with both hands, his expression was as if he was looking at a peerless beauty, and the three trianths put the big hammer down in the corner of the wall and said, "Wang Gongzi, how about putting it here?" Su Bai was very satisfied: "I'm tired of a few brothers", I wanted to take out some silver in my arms, but I didn't take it out for a long time, Wang Fatzi rolled his eyes, reached out and untied his money bag and handed it to the head of the ministry and said: "Young Master Wang's money is usually managed by me, please brothers drink some wine." The leader hurriedly refused: "This is not good, we can't accept it", Su Bai didn't give him a chance to refuse, and directly stuffed the money bag into his armor and said: "Take it, this thing is not light, you are also working hard along the way, there is no other meaning, I just want the brothers to take the money and drink to relieve their fatigue."

As soon as the front foot left, Wang Fatzi jumped up and said: "This is the phoenix wings used by Yuwen Chengdu back then?" Su Bai nodded and said: "That's right, this is the phoenix wing gilded pistol used by Yuwen Chengdu back then!" Wang Fatzi continued: "This is really the phoenix wings and gold hammer used by Yuwen Chengdu back then? Su Bai continued to nod and said, "That's right, this is really just.... Forget it, you're in the ink reader's time to say that we have a water word count! ”。

......

"By the way, it's the Lantern Festival soon, didn't you say what kind of promotion you had before? How? Wang Fatzi asked, his hands still firmly grasping the big pistol and not letting go. Su Bai touched his chin and said: "That's the membership system, let them get a monthly card when the time comes" "Monthly card?" Wang Fatzi didn't understand a little, and raised his head and asked. Su Bai said with a smile: "Let's just say that it is a feedback activity, as long as it is a member, no matter how many times you come to see it in this month, you will enjoy discounted treatment, which is called a member price!" Wang Fatzi nodded, the reason is simple, in fact, like vouchers, it is a means to win over customers.

Su Bai nodded and said: "When the time comes, we can also divide the members, three levels, the first is a member who spends fifty taels in the store and gives one month for a month, and this kind of member is discounted." Then there is the second kind of membership that spends money, you need to pay three months of membership fees first, this kind of 20% discount, and finally like the group of gentlemen on the second floor, such as the highest level members, 7% off! Wang Fatzi was puzzled: "Those sons and brothers are not bad for money, why do you give them a seven-fold discount?" Su Bai lay on the hot kang and said: "They are not bad for money, but the difference is face, you find a better goldsmith in the past two days, punch out a few membership cards, and send one to each of them when the time comes, and tell them that as long as they spend in Liaozhai, we will all record it in the account, and they don't need to pay now, you can settle the account together at the end of the month!" ”

Wang Fatzi stood up, sat on the eaves of the kang and said, "What's the use of this? Not only do we make 30% less money, but the return of funds is also slow." Su Bai shook his head and said: "This is the face I told you, when they entertained friends before, they might go to Babaozhai and Yunke, but after they have a membership card, they will definitely come to us to chat about Zhai!" ”

"Why?" Wang Fatzi still didn't understand, Su Bai explained: "What we bought is not a member, it's an identity!" To promote a kind of information, not everyone can get our gold card for chatting, think about it, when the time comes to settle the bill, one is to take out a piece of silver in his arms and hand it to settle the bill. The other one directly took out a beautiful gold card and said to check out, which one do you think has more face? Wang Fatzi understood a little, and looked at Su Bai with a look of admiration: "You still have enough brains!" Su Bai originally wanted to be modest, but after thinking about it, he was right!

.....

In the second year of Zhenguan, the fifteenth day of the first month

Today's Lantern Festival, the atmosphere on the street is still very warm, and the vendors selling food goods have all returned to their jobs. Wang Fatzi went out to find a goldsmith early in the morning, and Su Bai specially instructed him that he couldn't make more gold cards, just make twenty first. The fat man understood and left in the carriage.

Su Bai stretched a big lazy waist, moved his body, and began to take steps in the backyard, which is the basis of martial arts training, and it can't be left behind. In this era of backward medical conditions, if you want to live a long life, you can only rely on your body's immunity! If you can resist, you can survive! I still have the kung fu passed down by my master, and if I don't practice well, I will be damned!

Su Bai also found that his long strength grew quickly, and this should be the credit of three inches! Although I don't plan to go to battle, it's always good to be fit. Told Wang Xiaobao to go down and buy some breakfast and come back, I haven't eaten Aunt Li's flatbread on the street corner for a long time, and I still miss it a little. As soon as the head finished breakfast, the servants came to work, and the fat girl saw Su Bai running over and said, "Brother Ugly Niu, when will you come back?"

Su Bai rubbed her little fleshy face and said, "I came back yesterday, how have these two days been?" Tired or not? The fat girl shook her head and said: "I'm not tired, I'm not tired, Boss Zhang has accepted a few more servants in the past two days, and we are rehearsing "A Chinese Ghost Story" Su Bai smiled: "How is it, do you like to act in dramas?" The fat girl said excitedly: "I like it, Boss Zhang said that I am still young, and I will arrange a role for me in two years, and now there are a lot of rewards from guests every day, and Boss Zhang gives us some every day, I bought a lot of delicious food."

The fat girl squinted her eyes and became two beautiful little crescents, with a happy little appearance, Su Bai smiled and touched her little head and said, "That's good, if anyone dares to bully you, you can tell me, see that I don't break his legs!" "No one bullied me, everyone likes me!" The fat girl hurriedly explained, as if she was really afraid that Su Bai would break other people's legs!

"Okay, okay, let's get busy, my brother will go out for a while", the fat girl nodded, ran away, put down the rice bowl, and found the fat man to take a hundred taels of dividends first, and now the daily turnover of Liaozhai is almost about three hundred taels. Su Bai is now a person who makes money every day, and it is not good to rub other people's carriages all the time, so it is better to buy a carriage by himself.

It's good to be close to the West Market, there are all kinds of things sold, Wang Fatzi asked the groom to take Su Bai to buy a horse, he originally wanted to give Su Bai a horse, Su Bai refused, everything had to be sent by others, and he felt like he was eating white rice. Su Bai didn't know anything about horses, and the groom smiled and said that he had raised horses for almost thirty years, and he could see the quality of horses at a glance, and when the time came, he would be able to find an experienced groom for Su Bai.

Thinking that he was about to 'sports car plus driver', Su Bai was still a little excited, and Wang Xiaobao was the same, staring at the horses in the horse market back and forth, the taste of the horse market needless to say, it can smoke people out one by one, the Hu people, the Japanese people, and even the Goguryeo people can see it inside, they continue to sell their horses to people, and the groom leaned into Su Bai's ear and said: "If you want to buy a horse, you have to buy a Hu people's horse, although I don't want to admit it, but our horses are indeed not as fast as the Hu people's horses, and the endurance is not as good." Su Bai nodded, this is a genetic problem, for example, Asians are generally not as strong as Europeans, this is an indisputable fact.

"What kind of horse does the owner want to buy?" The groom asked, Su Bai didn't understand either, didn't he see all of these left and right, and he couldn't see any difference. The groom continued: "Owner, it is unrealistic to want to pick a BMW out in the West Market, but it is enough to travel, do you want a horse that runs fast, or a horse with good endurance?" ”。

Su Bai was puzzled: "I'm going to use it for transportation, you can help me pick one", the groom nodded and said: "Then I suggest you still buy Hu people's horses, their horses are durable, let's buy a horse in the prime of life, it is no problem to pull a carriage for seven or eight years", Su Bai nodded, it is better to leave professional things to professional people. The groom led Su Bai to a few Hu people, staring at the horses behind them.

One of the Hu men trotted over in two steps, and said in a very strong Western accent: "Three, distinguished guests, no matter what kind of horse you want to choose, my Granmu horse will definitely satisfy you." The groom stretched out his finger and pointed to the black horse at the very end, and said, "Take it out and I'll see!" Granmu looked at the groom's finger and said in surprise: "This noble man is really a good eye, the horse I brought today is the first, Greqi, bring the four-hoofed snow beast." Su Bai wanted to laugh when he heard it, and he also stepped on the snow beast with four hooves, he was so famous in the middle two, and his way of speaking was so exaggerated, he really had the meaning of a modern car salesman.

The horse slave led the horse over, and Su Bai knew why this horse was called the four-hoofed snow beast, this was a black horse, but the four hooves were extremely snow-white, and there was a ball of white hair in the center of the eyebrows, which looked like a vertical eye, and it looked very handsome!

Granmu leaned over and smiled: "This four-hoofed snow beast is only three years old this year, and it is the right time to make it, so you can buy it back, let alone use it for more than ten years, there is no problem!" Not only does it have good stamina, but you can also see this hoof, and it is really chasing the wind and waves when it runs! The groom made a gesture to Su Bai, indicating that this horse is really good, and he will not suffer a loss if he buys it back!

"What's the price of this horse?" Su Bai asked, and when Grammu's eyes rolled, he could also see that Su Bai was in charge, and stretched out a finger and said, "One hundred taels!" Su Bai didn't squirt out, how did this grandson know that he had a hundred taels on him! The horseman shook his head and said: "Don't show your face to deal with laymen, the horse is good, but it is definitely not worth the price, twenty taels!" "No, no, no, this is definitely not sold, this four-hoofed snow beast dare not say anything else, it is definitely one of the best BMWs in this West Market!" The price of twenty taels can only buy an old horse, I am in the prime of life, and I can call the age, twenty taels is too little! ”
