In Zhao Feng's view, the horse price set by Tiance Army is absolutely fair. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Although the price of a good horse for 80,000 yuan is close to the price of a good horse in previous years, as long as it is transported back to Jizhou and sold, it can earn back 40,000 to 50,000 yuan, and it is definitely not worried about selling. As for the price of 45,000 yuan for a flat horse, it can be regarded as a conscience price.

However, because the price was too fair, it caused trouble for Zhao Feng and his group of real horse buyers.

Because the fairer the price, the more ordinary people are willing to spend money to buy horses, even if they only buy one horse, they have the opportunity to choose a horse, in this way, Zhao Feng and the money they brought to buy horses is enough, but the number of horses is likely not to be picky!

Zhao Feng definitely didn't think that when Xu Huang and Qin Yi set this rule, they had thought about and scrutinized it repeatedly.

Horses are an important war resource, and the reason why the Tiance army will take out 3,000 horses to sell is only because the capture of several battles against Hu is very rich, with the current scale of troops, it cannot use so many horses, and the cost of raising horses is not low, so there will be a situation of exchanging horses for food.

With the family background shown by the landlords and powerful people of the above party, they can easily buy all the remaining more than 1,000 horses at a high price, because they only need to change hands and sell these horses to Jizhou, and they can make a profit after half a month.

However, this is a situation that Xu Huang does not want to see. He wanted to keep Ma Du in Bingzhou as much as possible and stay in Shangdang. The landlords and tycoons of the upper party have already benefited once, while some small families with good families can only afford a horse because of their limited surplus money, and it would be the greatest injustice to turn them away just because they bought a small number of horses.

There is a saying called the equalization of interests, and while the Tiance Army is winning over the rich people of the party, it should not forget ordinary civilians. Because, they are the majority.

According to Xu Huangding's rules, horse buyers like Zhao Feng can only follow the ordinary people of the party into the horse circle to choose horses, although some money is saved, but because of the large number of horse buyers, he can only choose two or three times at most, which is far from his original intention of wanting to purchase fifty horses at one time.

Zhao Feng was a man of courage and determination, and he felt that instead of huddled with people to pick a few horses, it was better to think of another way.

Soon, Zhao Feng found a loophole in the rules set by the Tiance Army.

Zhao Feng and the four people who came with him found twenty people in Huguan City, and secretly agreed with them that the money for buying horses would be paid by Zhao Feng in advance, as long as these people helped them go in and choose horses, after they came out, a horse could be rewarded with a thousand yuan. Because these random people may not necessarily choose horses, Zhao Feng also asked them to follow Zhao Feng after they entered, and Zhao Feng asked them to choose whichever horse they wanted.

Just go into the horse ring and get paid a thousand dollars for a turn, which is definitely an easy and cost-effective deal! If you're lucky, you can pick it twice, it's two thousand dollars! The people Zhao Feng found were all vendors who did small business in Huguan City, and they couldn't resist the temptation of this reward at all, so they agreed without hesitation.

Zhao Feng and the five of them came to the registration place with the twenty Huguan locals who were temporarily found, and then took out a lot of horseshoe gold from the wooden box they carried!

These horseshoe gold was raised by the wealthy families in Zhending County, and the main purpose was to buy horses. Since the Yellow Turban Rebellion, Zhending has been repeatedly attacked by bandits and horse thieves, and the rich households in the county are unbearable, so they raise funds and withdraw money, and send several teams of strong men with good skills to Bingzhou and Liaodong to buy horses, and Zhao Feng is the leader of this team who came to the party.

According to the current exchange ratio of gold and copper coins, a pound of gold can be exchanged for 11,000 pieces of fine money, and as for inferior copper coins, there is no specific number. The price of horses set by the Tiance Army is calculated in the unit of copper coins of the highest quality, and they will naturally not refuse more valuable gold.

According to the weight of the Han Dynasty, the weight of a pound of gold should be about 250 grams, and a hundred pounds of gold is 25 kilograms. The five people they came to Huguan County this time brought a total of 400 catties of gold, and if they all bought a good horse for 80,000 yuan, they could buy 55 horses.

Zhao Feng decided to buy 25 good horses and 25 medium horses, so that he could not only buy enough horses, but also save some gold.

The soldiers in charge of collecting money had no reason to refuse Zhao Feng and the others to use gold to sign up for twenty-five people at the same time, as long as they made sure that the amount of gold was accurately weighed and there were no mistakes when converting into copper coins, it was already very difficult. People who come to sign up to buy horses often take out gold, silver and copper coins together, which is called a troublesome thing when converted.

Zhao Feng, who had paid enough money, led people into the candidate area, and after all the 400 places for selecting good horses were sold, the soldiers opened the gate of the candidate area, and then guided hundreds of people who came to buy horses into the horse circle.

In order to prevent buyers from clashing or even fighting in the process of choosing horses, Xu Huang sent more than 1,000 soldiers to guard the horse pen, and there was a soldier standing next to each horse.

Because 400 horses were selected from more than a thousand horses, everyone had room to choose, so the competition was not particularly fierce. Zhao Feng and the other five horse buyers from Zhending each brought four "scalpers" and quickly selected twenty-five good horses according to the requirements.

After choosing, they came out of the entrance empty-handed. The horses they have chosen have been led by the soldiers to the vicinity of the exit, and when all the horses have been sold, the soldiers will check the horse plate and hand it over to the corresponding buyer.

Zhao Feng led people to enter the candidate area again with the wooden sign of the horse selection, and after all the 600 horse seats were sold, they entered the horse ring again with the flow of people and selected among the remaining horses.

The selection process went smoothly on the two occasions, and Zhao Feng felt that the second selection was not much different from the previous one, and he was satisfied with his decision.

By the time the last three hundred and twenty flat horses were selected in the third round, a large number of people gathered at the registration office, and the soldiers were armed with knives and guns to maintain order, so as to avoid the conflict. On a first-come, first-served basis, three hundred and twenty people entered the candidate area, and they only had one chance, and whichever horse they grabbed was counted.

For 45,000 yuan, you can buy a Xianbei horse, which is a rare opportunity!

All the horses were sold, and the buyers lined up to receive the horses near the exit, and in the order in which they bought good horses, medium horses, and flat horses, each showed the soldier the wooden card in his hand, and the soldier took the wooden card in his hand for comparison, and as long as the symbols were exactly the same, he handed the reins to the buyer.

The process of handing over the horses was also relatively smooth, because no one dared to take the lead under the nose of the Tiance Army, unless he was impatient.

After the people led the horses and scattered, Zhao Feng ran into trouble.

There is an unsophisticated "scalper" who actually intends to escape on horseback, and wants to hack the horse that Zhao Feng bought with money!

Zhao Feng was angry and anxious at that time, picked up a fist-sized stone on the ground, and threw it at the back of the "scalper".

As a result, Zhao Feng threw too accurately, and hit the back of the scalper's head at once, and the scalper fell from the horse, foaming at the mouth, and died on the spot.

"Oh no, it's murderous!" The people in the vicinity, who had not yet dispersed, began to shout.

Zhao Feng stood in place, not knowing what to do next.
