Chapter 183 The county order buys horses
Lu Qing thought about it for a long time and couldn't think of who Zhou Ning would buy a horse for, so he simply asked directly: "Childe, who are you going to buy a horse for?" ”
"You'll know when you buy it. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info "Zhou Ning stamped all the notices with the official seal, and then ordered people to take them out and post them, not only in Yunjiang County, but also in nearby villages.
Lu Qing was confused by him, is this crazy? Spend a thousand taels of silver to buy a horse for no reason? At this time, Yahuan came to invite him to breakfast, Zhou Ning strode past Lu Qing, and Lu Qing followed after realizing it.
After breakfast, Zhou Ning changed into civilian clothes and said that he was going to go out of the ya, and Lu Qing naturally wanted to accompany him. Out of the yamen, Zhou Ning walked directly to the west.
"Childe, where are we going?" There are not many places to visit in the west of the yamen, and there is no scenery, Lu Qing didn't know what he was going to do, so he asked.
"Horse Market."
When Lu Qing saw this posture, he believed that Zhou Ning really wanted to buy a good horse. Yesterday I received a case of losing a horse, and today I ran out to buy a horse.
This boy is too casual, and he really wants to come out of it.
Zhou Ning was upset, and he had no clue about too many things. He had to do it as soon as possible, and he had tried thirteen cases in one day, and all of them were closed on the same day.
Yesterday he had only taken on two small cases, one of which was pending, and he seemed to be at ease with anxiety behind it.
Song Guoxing's horse was stolen at night, and the horse thief ran to the ends of the earth, who knows where it will be? Zhou Ning came to Mashi mainly to see if he could find some clues.
The horse market is very noisy, and although it is called a horse market, it is not just a horse seller. This is the largest livestock trading place in Yunjiang County, with cattle, horses, donkeys, mules, sheep, and everything sold.
Where there are many people, there is naturally a mixture of fish and dragons, a group of rough men gather together and talk foul words, and there is no edge and no edge in the north and south.
The so-called poor happiness is probably like this, there is no need to have anything, as long as a few people get together to lift a bar to each other, and there are camels who don't brag and say crazy things, they can live a whole day laughing.
Lu Qing wrinkled his nose with some disgust, the people here have a dusty smell, and they are not as clean and delicate as the people in the deep mansion compound.
Zhou Ning's face was flat and Ning He couldn't see anything, Zhou Ning, the son, was far less squeamish than his scholar. After walking forward for a while, Lu Qing pinched his nose with his left hand and half-covered his mouth, and pulled Zhou Ning with his right hand.
"Childe, let's go back." Lu Qing really didn't even want to breathe, the livestock trading place was inevitably dirty, and the smell was so bad that people were disgusted.
"I didn't let you come, so if you want to go back, you should go back." Zhou Ning looked ahead, and most of the horse sellers were concentrated in front.
Lu Qing didn't speak, he could only exhale as much as possible and inhale less, and forcibly followed Zhou Ning with displeasure. Zhou Ning walked forward with his head held high, and Lu Qing followed on tiptoe.
The sandy floor is not as clean as the bluestone streets, but there is nothing dirty either, and there is no need to walk like a mine.
This horse market is also under the jurisdiction of the Yamen, and it is not a place that no one cares about, and it is okay to sell livestock here, but the environment must be maintained.
It's just that this level of cleanliness is similar to pushing him into a quagmire for Lu Qing, he is a person with a habit of cleanliness, and the smell alone makes him want to die.
If he can't come to this kind of ghost place, he won't come, and he won't think about it if he doesn't come for the rest of his life. He really didn't understand whether Zhou Ning needed to do everything?
At the sound of an order, these horse keepers and sellers can lead the horses to the yamen, and he only needs to sit at the door and watch them one by one.
He personally went to the horse market to buy horses, and he was really idle. Anyway, there are mountains of big and small things in the yamen, why doesn't he, a workaholic, go back to work?
Zhou Ning was dressed like a nobleman, and as soon as he came over, he attracted the attention of those horse sellers. Usually the sons and daughters of rich and noble families like to buy a good horse to ride, so that they can save face when they go out.
Zhou Ning is also followed by a squeamish scholar, which makes people see at a glance that Zhou Ning is a 'noble-born' big man.
"Little Xianggong, are you going to buy a horse?" A black-faced man in his forties blocked Zhou Ning's way with a smile, doing business is to take the initiative, and finally looking forward to someone who can buy a horse hopefully, but he can't let others take the lead.
"Hmm." Zhou Ning nodded: "Is there a good horse?" ”
"Yes!" The man straightened his waist and patted his chest. He gave a thumbs up: "Look at our horses, let me tell you that none of them can do it in the entire horse market." If you say you want to buy a cheap horse, buy an inferior horse, I won't say anything, really, if you want to buy a good horse, I tell you that you don't need to look at other people's horses, our horses are like dragons......"
The man walked towards his horse with Zhou Ning as he spoke, his mouth was as if the gate was opened, and he couldn't close it when he opened it, which really made Zhou Ning see what it means to be like a river.
Although the man has some boasts, his horses are really good. The back is wide and large, and the dark brown horsehair is very beautiful.
"Soma look at the head first, look at this horse's head, is there any comparison?" The man touched the horse's mane and proudly introduced his horse: "This year is five years old, it is the strongest time, it doesn't matter if you buy my horse or not, Xiao Xianggong, I kindly remind you, you must not buy an old horse when buying a horse, the old horse is powerless, you know?" Our horses run steadily and fast, and the old horses can't even run. ”
Zhou Ning looked at it a few times and said lightly: "The horse is a good horse, but it's not what I want." ”
Zhou Ning turned around to leave, but the man hurriedly stepped forward and blocked in front of him again: "Little Xianggong, you have to be patient to buy a horse, how can you buy a good horse if you just glance away?" Look at our horses, this back, this leg, this hoof, you try to ride it, and it can't rely on you, right? ”
Zhou Ning raised his hand and touched the horse's mane: "Your horse is really good, but it's not what I need." ”
"And what do you need?" The man said very enthusiastically: "I am an old man in this horse market, as soon as you say it, I will know who has it, and it will save you from delaying your work in vain." ”
Zhou Ning smiled faintly: "To be honest, I came to take a look, I wanted to buy a good horse, but I didn't ride it myself." ”
"If you want to give it away, then pick a good choice, a good horse will give it to have face, I told you that you can't take it except for our horse. If it's too expensive, the price is negotiable. Xiao Xianggong, I am also in love with you, you take away our horse for thirty taels of silver, and make you a friend if you don't make money, how about it? ”
Zhou Ning really convinced his mouth, and he must earn more money by going out to comment on books than selling horses.
