In the next few days, the Weizhou conference was still held as usual, the number of cattle increased, but the number of horses decreased some, but without exception, the horse trade continued to create new highs, each time the time for the competition was not long, after a few signs, most of them were called to the final price, and the stalemate rarely appeared.

Changing to cattle, it is different, except for the first two days, the next few days, the trading volume of cattle continued to decline, and on the third day, the number of cattle began to decrease, and on the fourth and fifth days, it was fixed at 20,000 heads per day, and there was no way to completely complete the transaction.

In terms of demand, the demand for horses is mainly in commerce, using horse gangs or carriages to transport goods and reach all directions, and on this, the total amount is limited.

Cattle are different, for the Northern Song Dynasty farmers who planted for a living, this is an indispensable tool, any family lacks cattle, with cattle, for labor intensity, as well as the proportion of output, there will be a huge increase.

But why are horses so expensive that they are always favored?

The reason is simple, this is a cattle and horse conference held in northern China, which is too remote, that is, the publicity is in place, attracting a large number of businessmen, otherwise, there would be no such a large volume of transactions.

In this era, the cost of travel is still very high, and it may be that in the entire Northern Song Dynasty, the families who can afford to buy a cow may exceed millions, but it is absolutely impossible for these families to come and buy a cow thousands of miles away, or even farther.

Now, that is, in the periphery of Weizhou, no more than 300 miles, the first, second, and third class households who know the news will come over, and there are those that the money banks have ordered for a larger range.

Similarly, the purchase of the boom also made the money village and the chamber of commerce, consider the idea of buying a part of the cattle by the way, and go back with the horse team in the future, not to pay more costs, about 11 times, the price of a cow, in some places where the cattle are lacking, there are still two or three percent of the income.

It is precisely because it is incidental, so the total amount will not be too high, and even Han Qi is a little worried, these cattle may not be able to be all traded, which can be seen from the shrinking sales volume, to the horse, it is relatively fixed, and the transaction can be completed by taking out a few thousand horses every day, and the price has dropped slightly, but the amplitude is not very large.

In the next few days, the waves were not alarmed, and the merchants also understood very well that the total number of this auction was fixed, a total of 200,000 horses, 300,000 cattle, they had enough opportunities, no need to compete once or twice, very tacit, as long as it reached about 115, it would stop, unless it was the case of having more than 2 military horses.

Weizhou cattle and horse conference, carried out quite smoothly, the next day of 5000 horses, the final all the deals, the average transaction price of the final horse, in 112 runs, a little less than the beginning, because of the continuous transaction, their enthusiasm is not so high, the price of horses began to gradually return, back to the average price of the comparison, it is expected that tomorrow, the price of horses, will still be quite reduced, to the end, the price of the whole horse, will be reduced to a little more than 100 runs.

This is a normal thing, after the second day, someone proposed to increase the intensity of the horse and reduce the cattle delivery, because on the third day, the volume of cattle shrank on a large scale, and the previous volume of trading volume concentrated outbreak, and now, when this volume of trading volume decreased, it was natural to reach the trough.

However, because of the slight increase in the number of horses, after the third day, more than 8,000 horses were taken out every day, and the volume of transactions also stabilized.

8,000 horses, 112 per horse, that is to say, the transaction of horses in just one day is as high as 900,000, and the cumulative amount in five days is close to 4.5 million.

That is to say, the margin withdrawn by Han Qi and the trading volume of the horses in the previous two days have exceeded this number, and all the previous procedures and system problems are not a problem, and the rest will be net profit.

When the number of cattle was reduced to 20,000 cattle, the daily trading volume began to stabilize, the transaction price was not as eager as the horse, it was impossible to increase the price by more than one percent, slightly lowered, and the final average price was about 11 guan, slightly lower than the expected 12 guan, the price of 220,000 guan also made the overall auction sales of the day exceed one million guan, which became a fixed number.

Among them, Weizhou Ling's face was full of smiles, 5 is almost 5.5 million guan, that is to say, just this, what he can leave is close to 170,000 guan.

It's only been five days, and there's so much money, and what about paying?

The entire investment is only more than 30,000 yuan, that is to say, not to mention the second day, the first day alone is enough for all their previous investments to have been returned, so the next thing is the net profit.

Of course, when the auction entered a normal situation, he found Han Qi and mentioned the problem of money, of course, he did not put forward it directly, it was more indirect, but only mentioned that in the special situation of Weizhou now, there were too many funds spent before, and there were problems with the operation of the entire Weizhou.

For this, Han Qi is very generous, he also knows very well that as long as this auction can continue, Weizhou is the point that cannot be avoided, before, Weizhou said that there is no money, and now, under the premise that the overall funds have not been settled, he decided to directly withdraw 170,000 yuan and let Weizhou carry out some construction in advance.

170,000 guan, if compared with the total transaction amount of the entire auction, it is really not too much, but the auction and Weizhou, these are two different things, Weizhou originally, even if the funds mobilized by the entire state and embezzled some appropriations, it was only more than 30,000 guan, and now, it has directly increased by five times.

Han Qi is not so easy to withdraw the money, the reason is very simple, the money does not arrive immediately, it takes a certain amount of time, especially the bill of exchange, only if you buy it directly, or take out cash to buy it, it will arrive directly in the account.

In the past five days, there have been more than 5.5 million guan on the books, but the actual cash, even if gold and silver are added, does not exceed 700,000 kan, and 170,000 kan is equivalent to taking out a little more than one-fifth of it at once.

But Han Qi did not hesitate, this Weizhou conference has exposed a series of problems, Weizhou city is small, the capacity to undertake is limited, if you want to run the Weizhou Cattle and Horse Conference as a standing state, you must make changes.

Yes, in the current state, cattle and horses belong to a scarce resource, a cattle and horse conference attracts the whole of China, some of the top businessmen, which is already very scary, but what about after that?

Others don't know how many cattle and horses the Northern Song Dynasty harvested, but Han Qi doesn't know that 5 million horses, 8 million cattle, and the entry of this group of cattle will inevitably make the Northern Song Dynasty full.

But after that, his plan for Lingzhou was to develop animal husbandry on a large scale on the basis of the border military state, which was not Han Qi's initiative, but the situation forced him to do it.

More than 20 million head of livestock, including 13 million large livestock, even if it is such a strong and rich country as the Northern Song Dynasty, if you want to digest, it will take time, this time, may be a few years, under such a premise, these livestock, to find a place to raise, and multiplication is a very normal thing.

Before Lingzhou, it was not easy to feed these cattle, but now, Lingzhou's huge grassland, as well as other northwest military towns that have become safe because of Lingzhou's barriers, also have large-scale grazing capabilities.

It is conceivable that with such a strong foundation, even if the northwest does not produce as many cattle as the Western Xia, livestock will not be a scarce thing in the future, especially for cattle.

Then you must love to make a fuss about reception and ensure some basic reception capacity, which all cost money.

In itself, Weizhou Ling was very happy after being notified that he wanted to come and get the money, but when he came to Han Qi, he knew that there was another condition for getting this money, that is, this money must be used for the Cattle and Horse Conference.

Han Qi also generously said that not only will the money be fully received, but also a part of the labor will be paid in advance, mainly horses and cattle.

Cattle and horses are the most outstanding animal power in the whole world, it is not just to help build so simple, historically, the civilizations that can be developed are basically concentrated in Europe and Asia, it is difficult for other states, and even Africa, where human beings originated, is also scattered, the reason is very simple, there is no existence of cattle and horses, or in other words, it is very difficult for them to obtain cattle and horses.

Without cattle and horses, there is no accumulation of far more than people, there is no fast tools, and there is no combination of strength, they still maintain the original development, and do not embark on the road of becoming a strong country.

The entire Northern Song Dynasty was short of horses, and Weizhou was the same, they used funds to mobilize a lot of manpower to complete the preparations for the Weizhou Conference in advance.

Now, if they have all this money, and these cattle and horses in advance, they will be more efficient, and maybe the projects that used to require more manpower to complete can now be completed with only half or even less.

However, this is not a temporary or even rudimentary building like before, this is a series of projects including several permanent venues, and the investment will be even greater.

A simple, even simple cattle and horse conference venue, a total of more than 30,000 yuan, but a permanent market, can undertake a short period of large-scale conferences, and long-term uninterrupted transactions, this investment is huge, conservative estimates is more than 300,000, a full 10 times.

This made Weizhou Ling a little hesitant, if, according to the usual estimate, the transaction volume of more than 10 million guan, he harvested, that is, 300,000 guan, to invest all the income in this permanent building, which is more or less unwilling.
