Gu Changsheng took advantage of the darkness to find out, no matter how you look at this Niujia Village, it is impossible for a horse to exist, of course, it is not ruled out, but there must be a donkey. The reason why Gu Changsheng agreed without hesitation was that he had already thought about it, he couldn't stay in the realm of Beiyan forever, if he wanted to return to Great Wei, it was impossible to go on foot, although the horses were sparse and ordinary in Beiyan, they were more or less swaggering.

So the means of transportation he thought of earlier was a donkey. If you can't find a horse this time, you can only steal two donkeys, and then you will be stealing two horses.

After wandering for a long time, it rained lightly and at night, and the people in the village generally went to bed very early, so Gu Changsheng didn't have to be careful, who made him a raw face, and he tried not to go out if he couldn't get a moth.

When I walked through the whole village, I found that three families had donkeys, and sure enough, there were no horses at all.

Suddenly, Gu Changsheng slapped his forehead, how could he forget that Niu Fugui, the richest person in the village, Niu Fugui is a figure that everyone in the village knows, his ancestors have made meritorious contributions to the imperial court, and he originally had a title, but then the Niu family began to engage in business, and none of the descendants of the Niu family were in politics or the army, and this title was not hereditary, and he slowly became a rich businessman.

Later, the fiefdom of the Niu family was also collected, but the Niu family had money, and went to the county to buy a large piece of land, and the Niu family village left a little branch down, in order to distinguish the identity, the Niu family built a Zhuangzi not far from Niujia Village, called Niu Zhuang, and the person in charge of the Zhuangzi is the famous Niu Fugui in the village.

Gu Changsheng wore a cloak and straw sandals, copied a woodcutter in the firewood room and left the village. Although Gu Changsheng's long knife did not have an obvious mark of the Wei Kingdom, he still hid him, carrying an inconspicuous woodcutter.

The cow village is very large and magnificent, and it is almost catching up with the mansions in the northern border city.

Gu Changsheng shook his head and said, "I heard from the people in the village that I don't feel anything yet, but when it comes to this, tsk, this Niu family is very powerful." ”

But soon Gu Changsheng was disappointed, don't look at the decoration here is the same as a mansion, there is not even a gatekeeper at the door, Gu Changsheng walked around the cow village for a while, he found that there was no one in this cow village, let alone horses, there was not even a horse shed, it seemed that this cow village was in vain.

Just when Gu Changsheng was about to go back, a group of people came from afar, with a team of Northern Yan cavalry in front, a carriage in the back, and some goods in the back. Why did it say that it was the Northern Yan cavalry in front, because the clothes on their bodies were exactly the same as the clothes of the Northern Yan Army that appeared in Yanmen Mountain, Gu Changsheng found out at a glance.

"Niu Jiazhuang, Niu Fugui, the cavalry of Beiyan or the spies of Beiyan?" Gu Changsheng hid in the corner, and after a while, the lights of the Niuzhuang were turned on, and soon someone took the cavalry and the people in the sedan chair in, and the coachmen who were pulling the goods unloaded the goods under the leadership of a Niuzhuang person. It looks like it's the side door to go to.

"This Niu family is really arrogant, and it turns out that horses are used to pull goods!" Gu Changsheng saw it clearly, the first used by this Niu family was not a mule, and the second was not a meat horse, but a serious war horse.

In fact, how did he Gu Changsheng know that the meat horse that his father told him was actually a river meander horse, although that kind of horse is mild, strong, and has good endurance, it is indeed used to consign goods, because it has no blood, and the outbreak is not strong and cannot be trained into a war horse, but this kind of meat horse is a tribute to the imperial court. Unless his Niu family has made great contributions, it is impossible for him to have meat and horses.

Gu Changsheng was overjoyed, and when the time came, it would be easy to steal two horses out.

"Hurry up! The things here are official things, so you can't afford to neglect them! Niu Fugui said to a group of workers. His position in the Niu family is very embarrassing, his generation is the uncle of the current head of the Niu family, his own uncle, but he has no ambitions, he is shallow in learning, and he can't learn anything, so this big ancestral house Niu Zhuang gave Niu Fugui Guan.

It is impossible for anyone to come on weekdays, Niu Fugui is very uncomfortable, but at most his caravan passes by to take a break, and he gives an order, what he is doing and still doing.

But this time it was different, it turned out to be Niu Fuxiang, Niu Fugui's second brother, the real power figure of the Niu family, and even his own nephew who had to be polite. Niu Fugui remembered the first words of the second brother when he entered the door: "Fugui, you personally go and keep an eye on the unloading, and call everyone in our village to guard, as long as this period of time passes, our Niu family will soar!" ”

Although Niu Fugui didn't know why, he still arranged it very seriously according to the instructions of the second brother, but he was a little uncomfortable with the spring breeze and drizzle, after all, he was already in his fifties.

After the last batch of goods was unloaded, Niu Fugui carefully checked it three times before ordering the warehouse to be sealed, and then let the subordinates take turns to guard it.

Niu Fugui carried the key, took the account book, and went to Niu Fuxiang's residence leisurely.

As soon as he entered the door, Niu Fugui put down his things, knocked on his waist with his hand and said to the second brother: "Second brother, the goods have been ordered three times, there is no problem, you can rest assured." ”

Niu Fuxiang picked up the ledger and read it, and replied: "Fugui, you are fifty people, you were crazy when you were young, and now you have no children under your knees, why bother to stay in this ancestral house." ”

After that, Niu Fuxiang sighed.

Niu Fugui walked to the door and retracted his feet, turned around and said: "Second brother, don't say it, my Niu family should have been developed a long time ago, who made me young and ignorant at that time, and provoked people who shouldn't be messed with, not only did I fall ill, but..."

Niu Fuxiang suddenly shouted: "Rich! What did the eldest brother say about you? What did our brothers say about you? Why should you embarrass yourself! ”

"It's because you don't say it that I have to embarrass myself."

"Rich!"

"Second brother, take a good rest, you have a handful of bones, and you came out in person." Niu Fugui shook his head, and didn't want to take his second brother Niu Fuxiang's words anymore.

The old man's horse was tied to the courtyard in front of the middle hall, and the twenty war horses filled the originally large courtyard at once, and the people fed them licorice. Originally, Niu Fugui wanted to arrange the military master's war horse in the granary, so that he was not afraid of rain, who let this Niu Jiazhuang not set up a horse shed, and the mule's shed was too small and narrow.

But the military master said that they would just tie up the courtyard of this middle hall, and they wouldn't go to sleep anywhere else, just just take a moment in this middle hall.

Although Niu Fugui was a bastard when he was young, but now he is in his fifties after all, and he heard the second brother say that the Niu family will soon soar, and he doesn't need to think about it to know that these military masters in front of him are now the biggest, and they are what they say, and they ordered their subordinates to take the quilts on the village and leave.

On the way back to the house, Niu Fugui was pondering, and it seemed that he was going to get a place to come out to build a horse shed in the future, so he didn't have to say anything else, but this big cattle village, it was really embarrassing to have no horse shed.

"In the past, mules were used to transport goods, but I didn't expect to use horses this time, think about it, mules have good endurance, but the speed is poor, and they must be in a hurry to see the second brother." Niu Fugui thought that he had settled all the horses pulling goods in the firewood room and the granary, and after thinking about it, he felt that there would definitely be no forks, so he went back to sleep.

It's just that what he didn't know was that there was a person who was planning how to steal their two horses from when Niu Fuxiang first arrived.
