Chapter 241: Jia Ming, the Horseman
Gao Xia and his wife need to get used to it for a while, and Gao Feng doesn't have too high requirements for them, but he still hopes that the two of them can get on the road as soon as possible, after all, his workshop waits for no one. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The food workshop is also an important part of Gao Feng's launch, and he plans to make canned food, biscuits, mustard, pickled vegetables, instant noodles, ham sausages and other foods that can be stored for a long time. These foods are very helpful to the current Da Song Dynasty.
Nowadays, many people can only bring some stiff dry food, which is tasteless and unpalatable, and will deteriorate after a long time.
Of course, there are two more important uses for these convenience foods, that is, military and marine, with which these two activities will be more convenient.
However, due to technical problems, it is impossible to do all the peaks at one time, and he still has to test the water in the market, so he can only do it one by one, and the first thing he has to do is canned food.
He had been in a canning factory and knew the process, meat, fruits, vegetables, etc., but the equipment and personnel were not yet complete, and it would take some time.
Seeing that it was about to reach the end of the month, two good news came, which made Gao Feng happy for a long time.
The verdict was pronounced in the Ma Qing collision incident. Ma Qing was convicted of negligent injury minus the second degree, thirty rods, and exiled for 100 miles, but he could redeem the sentence and spend five hundred taels of silver, which was handed over to the victim's family, and at the same time, he also needed to cover all the funeral expenses of the owner, but this was a small amount of money, and it was relatively not worth mentioning.
Ma Qing was willing to atone for his sins, and happily took out the silver taels to solve the problem, but on the day he was released from prison, he was driven back to Nanjing by Zhang Ye along with Jian Peng and Liao Feng, and since then there has been one less unstable factor in the county.
After Ma Qing was released from prison, he still wanted to find Huang Dafeng to give a few words, but the Huang family said that Huang Dafeng left the county for some reason and would not be able to come back in a few days.
Another piece of news is that the horse dealer came to the door, which also made Gao Feng excited, the donkeys are ready, just waiting for the horse, and now the horse is coming, and the big problem is naturally solved.
The horse trader came alone at night, and looking at his cautious and cautious appearance, Gao Feng knew that there was a door to the matter.
Welcoming into the living room, Gao Feng said straight to the point: "Brother Tai is here as promised, it seems that things are going well, I don't know where Brother Tai's horses are now?" ”
"They haven't entered the county yet, but it's only a day's distance from here, so I came here first to get in touch with Childe." The horse-dealer said without hesitation.
Gao Feng understood that the other party wanted to see his sincerity, and if sincerity was insufficient, business would naturally not succeed, and he couldn't drive dozens of horses back and forth.
"I'm sure I want it, brother, let's talk about the quantity and price first." Gao Feng said clearly and cheerfully. He didn't want the other party to be suspicious of him.
The horse trader hesitated for a moment and said, "I don't know if Childe can eat more, of course, the price is negotiable." ”
"How many do you have?" Gao Feng was surprised, looking at the other party's appearance, there must be a lot of them.
"I have thirty horses, and if the son can eat twenty horses......"
Gao Feng waved his hand, stopped him from continuing, and said directly: "I want all thirty horses, you can tell you a price." ”
Zhang Bairen bought hundreds of donkeys, and if the number of horses was too small, the number of horses and mules would be much less than the number of donkeys and mules, which was imperfect for the whole crossbreeding.
"Huh?" The horse trader glanced at Gao Feng in disbelief, his heart was full of shock, he didn't expect the other party to be so atmospheric, however, he still said: "Eighteen taels and one horses." ”
"Haha." Gao Feng laughed and said: "I want you so much, eighteen taels is not low, I think your bottom line price is about fifteen taels, but, it doesn't matter, eighteen taels is eighteen taels, can I ask you a few words." ”
"This-", the horse trader blushed when Gao Feng said his thoughts, but he still hesitated, not daring to easily agree to Gao Feng's request.
"Don't worry, I won't touch your rules." Gao Feng added.
"So, Childe, may I ask?" The horse-seller said.
"Brother Tai's surname?" Gao Feng asked first. This is a basic question, and there is no problem.
"My surname is Jia, and my name is Jia Ming." The horse-seller said.
Pseudonym, this person is too direct, even if you want to say a fake name, it's good to change it, how can you be so impolite? Gao Feng became depressed.
"Childe thought that what he said was a fake name, but in fact my name was Jia Ming, Xibei Jia, a blockbuster Ming." Jia Ming explained.
I see, Gao Feng almost burst into laughter, and there is someone with this name, I really don't know what his father thought when he named it?
"I want to cooperate with Brother Jia, I wonder if Brother Jia can get some horses from the north?" Gao Feng asked.
Jia Ming can get so many horses from the southwest, but these horses are too short, they can be transported, and it is a bit far-fetched to use them for other purposes, Gao Feng still likes the tall horses in the north, and he is ready to prepare some war horses for the Baojia army.
Although Gao Feng's words were not explicitly stated, they already revealed his understanding of the current horses, and even Jia Ming also saw that Gao Feng knew the source of his horses.
Indeed, his horses come from Dali in the southwest, and although they are small, they are good at walking mountain roads, have solid hooves, and have great endurance, so they are suitable for transportation, but they are not good for riding.
Gao Feng wants northern horses, naturally for riding and use, but as a big Song Dynasty that controls horses, it is easy to get some short horses, but it is not easy to get some tall horses, so when he heard Gao Feng's question, Jia Ming hesitated.
Although the other party hesitated, Gao Feng knew that he would definitely be able to get it, but he didn't force Jia Ming, but said: "That's it, let's finish this batch of transactions first, and we'll talk about the cooperation later." ”
Jia Ming breathed a sigh of relief, he was indeed a little worried, not that he couldn't get the horse, but that the other party didn't understand it yet, so he couldn't spit it out easily, of course, if it was a few deals, then another matter.
"Childe, please tell me where and how the horses will be handed over, and ......" Ma Ming stopped after saying half a sentence.
"The handover site is in the Dasha River in the south, which is secluded and no one pays attention, and we will pay the money and deliver the goods with one hand." After Gao Feng finished speaking, he said, "Brother Jia, please say it directly." ”
The other party hesitated to speak, naturally he asked for something, as long as he asked for something, it would be easy to do, and his northern horse would not be too far away.
"I heard that the local salt is good, I wonder if Gongzi can help get a batch?" Ma Ming asked.
This is the reason for not wanting to run empty, Gao Feng saw the power of these peddlers, not only selling horses, but also selling salt, and making a lot of money back and forth. (To be continued.) )
