Chapter 216: Unreasonable
In the Assassination Mansion, the crowd was indignant.
"This is a business, you and I are willing, how can the Assassin Mansion do such a coercive thing?"
Although there were many people on the other side, Yuan Xi was still calm and light.
Everyone didn't dare to be too presumptuous, after all, the other party was an official, and he was just a citizen. However, when he came out, Mr. Cui had already said that if this matter was to be brought back, the only possibility was Yuan Xi's help. As long as Yuan Xi gave the order to send cavalry, there was still room for things to turn around, otherwise the road would be broken, and the horse would only be smashed in his hands.
So, they tried their best to persuade them.
Yuan Xi listened to the endless buzzing of a bunch of people, so he shouted: "Enough! ”
The sound was suppressed at once, and then suddenly rose again.
There are those who kneel down and beg Yuan Xi, there are those who reprimand loudly, and there are those who don't know what to say, anyway, everyone's voices are stacked together, and Yuan Xi can't hear a single reason.
The last person came out of the crowd, bowed to Yuan Xi, and then pressed down with both hands, and the scene was quiet.
Yuan Xi looked at the man and said, "Brother Wen, what do you think?" ”
It was Wen Qian who came out, at this time, as Cui Guang said, a dead horse is a live horse doctor, and the "people who bought the horse" are gone, and the horse will become a dead horse, and if you want to live, you have to find another way. Instead of packing up and going home, it's better to make a fuss.
Wen Qian said: "During the autumn harvest this year, Lord Thorn Shi went to Wenjiabao. ”
"Exactly, what's wrong?"
"Why did Lord Thorn Shi come here?"
"Collect taxes."
"Lord Thorn Shi once said that there is a reason why taxes should be collected."
"Yes, the taxation of the state is a means of regulating the economy. The government provides a system to help farmers farm with peace of mind, to help you receive goods with peace of mind, so you have to collect taxes to maintain such a stable order. ”
Wen Qian said: "This time to buy a horse, it must be the same, right?" ”
"Of course, you didn't see me busy, if you listen to me, this horse will also be sold, my taxes will be collected, and Lu Fan will also buy a horse, a win-win situation. It's a pity. ”
The crowd also sighed.
Wen Qian said: "Having said that, this competition for buying and selling is not something that can be expected after the fact. In fact, this transaction, from the very beginning, went wrong, which led to the failure to succeed in the end. ”
The crowd in the hall couldn't help but clamor and asked, "What's the problem?" ”
Wen Qian said: "It was Lord Thorn Shi who intercepted the horse dealers from Yuyang to Ji County, which led to the shortage of horses in Ji County, and the price rose." Think about it, if it weren't for the horses not being able to get in, how could this price be so high? How can the bids of the buyer and seller be so far apart? ”
Everyone nodded, as if there was indeed such a thing.
"What a joke!" Yuan Xi raised his voice: "The price of horses has increased, aren't you the ones who sell the horses?" It's really a sin that you want to add, and there is no excuse for it. ”
Everyone nodded again, it is indeed good for themselves to lack horses.
Wen Qian's face suddenly turned red, he looked at Yuan Xi's measures with the help of the matter, and he felt that Yuan Xi's movements were full of mysteries, and the most incredible thing was that he suddenly cut off the line from Yuyang to Ji County, so that the horses could not enter Ji County. He thought hard afterwards and chose this one as a breakthrough, but Yuan Xi easily pierced it. In Yuan Xi's mouth, it seems that everything is really thinking about them, but he knows Yuan Xi best as a person, every action is for his own benefit, and he will not do anything that is not beneficial. So, what good will it do him if he loses the way the horse came?
"This ...... This ......," Wen Qian said hesitantly, "Then why did you stop those traders who went south to sell horses?" ”
Yuan Xi said: "The roads are blocked in winter, and there are few vendors, so I am afraid that there will be small people who will sneak into the city, which is understandable." Do you have to explain the reason to you? Brother Wen, you are also a sensible person, why are you so confused about this matter? ”
Wen Qian felt the burning eyes of the people around him, and his face couldn't hold it anymore, so he said three "this, this, this, and this" in a row.
Yuan Xi waved his hand and said, "You guys go back first." Tomorrow will continue to trade horses, although the demand of southern merchants has decreased, but after all, it is still an opportunity to make money, you have to think carefully about a price, in the end to get back some losses. ”
Those big families are fine, even if the horses can't be sold, at least they won't be affected. What's worse is that the horse dealers who specialize in raising horses buy and sell this once in a year. Of course, the worst thing this time was a person like Wen Qian, not to mention selling horses himself, but also buying a lot of horses from the black market at a high price, and he was ruthlessly slashed.
At this point, the buyer's alliance that Cui Guang had managed to maintain collapsed, and the reputation of the Cui family disappeared overnight. Of course, everyone still believes in the strength of the Cui family, but in the territory of Youzhou, the Cui family's orders, no one will take it seriously.
Each of them went back, each with a ghost.
The next day, in the exchange, the seller still submitted the price, and on the buyer's side, almost everyone gave an offer.
Yuan Xi asked people to open the quotation to see, and then beckoned: "Fan Laoqi, come here immediately." ”
Someone led the horse to the buyer and seller and Yuan Xi, and the buyer checked the horse, then nodded and said it was qualified. So the first deal since the beginning of winter was made.
Yuan Xi immediately asked people to write down the transaction price, and the buyer and seller basically reached an agreement on a price, and this price has dropped by two-thirds compared with yesterday.
"Does anyone want to change the quote?"
As soon as he finished shouting, almost everyone withdrew the offer, and after discussing it, it was hung up again.
"Lead the horse!"
This time the price has been lowered again.
One afternoon, the horse trade was in full swing, and the only remaining places caused a sensation in the Ji County Exchange, and a series of avalanche-like animal grabbings almost reduced the price of horses to the extreme.
People's hearts were dripping with blood, and their faces were dead. The guests from the south high-fived and celebrated. One side cursed Lu Fan, and the other thanked him silently. Half is seawater, generally flames.
"I can't sell it, I can't sell it - if I sell it again, it's about to become a loss."
Someone was screaming outside the exchange. Even if you raise your own horses, the price is not optimistic. That's a drop from last winter's prices. Once it started to go down, the momentum couldn't stop.
Yuan Xi said: "Okay, it's not dark today, and there will be transactions to continue tomorrow." ”
The buyers went away happily, and they discussed: "Since the horses are so cheap, we should buy more." I can earn a little more when I go back. "However, due to the limited manpower, even if we can buy more, we may not be able to ship it back.
Two pairs of Yin Owl eyes stared at Yuan Xi, and one of them said, "Stare at him first." You're right, it's impossible for him to benefit from this matter at all, and he will always show his feet in the end, depending on his next actions......"
