Chapter 144: Su Shuang's War Horse
Zhao Yun nodded and said: "Naturally, it is possible, but if anyone does anything on rice and grain, Hugh blames the official for turning his face and not recognizing people." ”
"Zhao Taishou rest assured, we are loyal businessmen, and we will not do such a thing." A businessman said hurriedly.
Zhao Yun secretly sneered, loyal businessman? He had only heard that there were no traitors and no businessmen, and that these businessmen dared to take risks for the sake of profit.
"How many people need fragrant jade, go to the main book to make a record, and then go back to prepare materials and money, and after they are ready, just come directly to the Taishou Mansion." Zhao Yun got up and said.
"Zhao Taishou, please stay." A merchant came out and said, "The grass people have some things that they want to discuss with Taishou. ”
Seeing that this businessman was actually walking towards Zhao Yun, Dian Wei snorted coldly and stepped forward, the double halberd in his hand showing a little coldness.
"It's the grass people who are rude." The merchant hurriedly stopped.
Zhao Yun's expression moved, and he nodded: "You follow this official to come." ”
"Thank you, Taishou." The merchant hugged his fists excitedly.
Seeing this, the rest of the businessmen showed envy, and this businessman might get more benefits when he saw Zhao Yun alone.
Zhao Yun just left, the hall suddenly became lively, Xiangyu has a great attraction to businessmen, many businessmen who passed through Zhao County, it is precisely because of Xiangyu that they stayed in Handan, and even many businessmen came from nearby counties after getting the news.
"Quiet, everyone steps forward in order, if there is any noise, drive out of the Taishou Mansion." Bocai shouted.
When everyone heard this, they immediately remembered where they were, and they all kept quiet, and the Taishou Mansion represented the most honorable place in Zhao County.
Many businessmen even felt a little unbelievable, they actually saw Zhao Jun's Taishou, what an important official position Zhao Jun's Taishou was, they were more just ordinary businessmen.
From Zhao Yun's words and deeds, the businessmen felt sincerity, and they believed that with Zhao Yun's identity, they would definitely not make a deceptive move, which would not be of the slightest benefit to Zhao Yun.
In the room, after Zhao Yun sat down, he said with a smile: "Your Excellency, please take a seat, dare to ask Your Excellency if you are a horse seller?" ”
The merchant arched his hand and said: "Taishou is really as wise as a torch, and in Sushuang, he often pours some horses upside down. ”
"Are you Su Shuang?" Zhao Yun asked.
"Exactly, Taishou has heard of the grass people?"
Zhao Yun asked, "Do you know Liu Bei and Liu Xuande?" ”
"Taishou, when the grass people were in Zhuo County, they once saw Liu Xuande, and when they heard about Liu Xuande's fight against the Yellow Turban, they were moved in their hearts and gave all the horses to Liu Xuande." Su Shuang said truthfully.
Zhao Yun nodded and said: "Your Excellency is a righteous person, I don't know if Your Excellency has a deep friendship with Liu Xuande?" ”
"I've only met once in Zhuojun." Su Shuangdao.
"That's right, when the official was fighting against the Yellow Turban, he met Liu Xuande, and he didn't want to have a conflict with Liu Xuande later because of some things." When Zhao Yun spoke, he was paying attention to the change in Su Shuang's expression.
When Su Shuang heard this, his face suddenly changed, he had funded Liu Bei, and Zhao Jun Taishou had a holiday with Liu Bei, he came to Zhao Yun here, wasn't it unpleasant.
"The grass people don't know about this, and they hope to forgive their sins." Su Shuang saluted.
Zhao Yun laughed and said, "What is the crime? ”
Su Shuang was stunned, he didn't know how to say it, he couldn't say that it was a crime to fund horses to Liu Bei to fight the Yellow Turban.
"Your Excellency and Liu Bei are just one side, the reason why this official said this is to inform Your Excellency that knowing people and faces but not knowing their hearts is not embarrassing." Zhao Yun said with a smile: "This official once led the generals and soldiers in the army to crisscross the battlefield, and among the yellow scarves, when Zhao Yun's name is mentioned, who is not afraid." ”
"The prestige of Zhao Taishou has also been heard of by the grass people." Su Shuang arched his hand and said, this sentence is not false, on the battlefield against the Yellow Turban, Zhao Yun can be said to be a dazzling general in the Han army, killing many Yellow Turban generals.
"I wonder if your Excellency is selling horses now?" Zhao Yun asked.
Su Shuang got up and said, "Taishou, the reason why the grass people ask to see is precisely because they want to exchange their war horses for fragrant jade with Taishou. ”
When Zhao Yun heard this, he secretly rejoiced in his heart, war horses are a scarce material, and there must be a way for Su Shuang to give Liu Bei horses at the beginning.
"I wonder where your horses came from?"
Su Shuangdao: "Youzhou, Liangzhou, and Bingzhou." ”
"Not only that, the horses in the three states are not cheap, and the official heard that the horses outside the Saiwai are the cheapest." Zhao Yun said with a smile.
Su Shuang's expression froze slightly, and he arched his hand and said: "Don't hide it too much, the grass people will occasionally go to Saiwai to buy horses, after all, after the horses outside Saiwai arrive in Dahan, they will be more popular and the price will be higher." ”
"The official has no opinion on the use of horses in exchange for fragrant jade, but these horses must be excellent horses from the grasslands outside the Saiwai." Zhao Yun said slowly.
Su Shuang thought about it for a while, and then agreed, what he is best at is selling horses, and buying horses from outside the Saiwai, the current control is not strict, if you do a little bit, it is not a problem to transport the horses to the territory of Dahan, as long as you enter the customs, everything is easy to say.
If you buy horses from outside the Saiwai, if you catch them for the guards, it will be a lot of trouble, but now the Xianbei people are in charge of the grassland, and the Xianbei people often invade the border counties, and there are many grudges between the two.
But the merchants who sell horses have their own methods, such as buying some inferior horses from Youzhou, transporting goods to the grassland, and after arriving at the grassland, buying excellent horses, replacing the inferior horses, and entering the customs, you can get a lot of benefits between coming and going.
"I don't know how much the war horse is worth?" Zhao Yun asked.
"Since it is Zhao Taishou's demand, the grass people will naturally not ask for a high price, a good war horse, after arriving in the Guannei, can be sold for 5,000 yuan, or even 10,000 yuan, Taishou only needs to give 4,000 yuan." Su Shuangdao.
"Three thousand." Zhao Yun immediately replied.
Su Shuang was stunned again, he didn't expect that the dignified Zhao Jun Taishou would bargain, "Okay, just the price of Taishou." Su Shuang gritted his teeth and said.
Going to the grassland to sell horses is quite dangerous, and there is a lot of consumption in the process of transporting horses.
"Your Excellency is so refreshing, this official naturally can't be stingy, Xiangyu this official will sell it to you at a price of four hundred yuan a piece, but this matter cannot be passed on." Zhao Yun said with a smile: "Xiangyu has a lot of profits, and if you calculate it like this, Your Excellency will not suffer a loss." ”
Su Shuang arched his hand and said: "Thank you Taishou, the grass people must strictly abide by this matter." ”
"I don't know if Taishou can provide some fragrant jade to the grass people, but the grass people have some money in their hands, and it is not easy to buy materials in a short time." Su Shuangdao, if the fragrant jade spreads among the merchants, more people will definitely go to Zhao County, and before the others react, it is the most cost-effective to get more fragrant jade.
