Chapter 252: The Mi Clan of the East China Sea (Part II)
"Feng Xiang had captured a batch of war horses in the battle with the Yellow Turban Army before, and now he is ready to sell some of them. Ah Niu Su knows that the Mi clan has strong financial resources and an excellent reputation, and there are not many wealthy businessmen with the strength of the Mi clan, but I don't know if the prince is interested in war horses. ”
Fengxiang City is currently extremely short of money, and Ah Niu's eyes turned to the war horses captured from the Yellow Turban Army, 826 war horses represent a huge fortune!
"How many?"
"More than eight hundred. Hearing that the Qingzhou Mansion was seeking to expand the cavalry, Ah Niu was originally going to ask the state government if it needed it, if Gongzi was interested in this batch of war horses, then Ah Niu would not need to do anything more. ”
Hearing Ah Niu report the number of horses, Mi Zhu couldn't help but be slightly moved. Whether it is Qingzhou or Xuzhou, it is not the origin of war horses, ordinary mules and horses are easy to do, but war horses are extremely difficult to get. Of course, the ordinary business Mi clan does not take it to heart, but hundreds of war horses still have some attraction.
Although Mi Zhu came to Fengxiang this time, the fundamental goal is not for the so-called "trade cooperation", but to be able to make a big deal by the way, why not?
"I didn't expect Feng Xiang to have so many war horses! I'm very interested in war horses, but I don't know what the quality is, you must know that the price of horses fluctuates greatly, and it is directly related to quality, can you take a closer look? ”
The Mi family has tens of thousands of servants, and has a fairly powerful private army, and it is easy to create a cavalry with the Mi family's background. Even if you don't use it, more than 800 war horses can also bring a lot of profits when sold to the outside world, and it is the nature of businessmen to pursue profits, not to mention that the profits from this transaction are very considerable!
"Of course!" Ah Niu got up and smiled.
The horses captured from the Yellow Turbans were not in Fengxiang City, but were originally fostered in Jiuli Town, and after the completion of Suruga Town, they were transferred to this new dependent territory. First, because there are many valleys near Jiuli Town, the water and grass are abundant, and secondly, when he was besieged by the Yellow Turban, Ah Niu was worried that Du Yuan would ask the war horse to go back on the grounds of "there is something above", so he deliberately put it in Jiuli Town.
Although Suruga Town has only been established for a few days, it is now a busy scene with people coming and going. The construction of the horse wall is in full swing, and many people from the neighboring town of Jiuli have been dispatched to cut wood in the mountains outside the town, and a small part of the wall has been completed.
There are not many horsemen in Fengxiang, but after having ten high-level horsemen of the Wuhuan clan, it is easy to train apprentices, and under the dispatch of Chen Gong, there are constantly new homeless people who have settled in Fengxiang and are assigned to Suruga Town, and I believe that it will not be long before the population of Suruga can increase significantly. In fact, some of the basic facilities of Suruga Town have already been built, such as a blacksmith shop, a medical hall, a tailor's shop, a carpentry shop, and a school, and these measures have already begun to show their effect, and just yesterday, Suruga Town has succeeded in attracting the first homeless people.
"My lord, the momentum of the Suruga Town Exhibition is good now, although we can only barely take care of these horses with limited manpower now, but in a few months, we will have enough grooms, and we will be able to officially domesticate the war horses." When Hulunbei saw the arrival of the lord, he hurriedly put down the work in his hand and rushed to accompany him, just looking at the bright smile on his face, he knew that this Wuhuan man was very satisfied with the current situation.
"Well, Hulunbei has worked hard, and it's up to you to get our horse domestication base in Fengxiang. If you need anything, just look for Mr. Chen, I'm afraid there are no problems in the territory that he can't solve, I have already told Mr. Chen, and the needs of Suruga Town will definitely be met as much as possible. Ah Niu smiled.
Mi Zhu couldn't help but feel a move in his heart, he heard the conversation between Ah Niu and Hulunbei clearly, Ah Niu followed the appointment of a female mayor, and then appointed a foreign person as the mayor of the subordinate territory, this style fully shows that A Niu is eclectic in employing people.
As a modern person, Ah Niu certainly won't look at aliens with colored glasses like the NPCs of the Three Kingdoms era (except for some scumbag peoples), isn't there 56 ethnic groups in China, and they are all one family after more than a thousand years. The appointment of female npnetpc is not a problem at all in Ah Niu's view, and it is the biggest waste to have talents that are not used!
"Ah Niu City Lord, this Hulunbei doesn't seem to be a member of the Central Plains clan." Mi Zhu asked casually.
A certain city lord smiled: "Yes, Hulunbei is a Wuhuan person, and the son also knows that the children of the grassland have been dealing with horses since they were children, and they are close to horses almost instinctively. Suruga Town is my Fengxiang's eleventh subordinate territory, just established a few days ago, the current horse rejection wall has not been fully built, if the son arrives a few days late, what is shown in front of you is the complete Suruga Town. ”
"Isn't the lord of the castle worried that the aliens are harboring evil intentions?" Mi Zhu hesitated, but finally spoke up. Come to think of it, most of the nomadic people's lives are difficult, often a heavy snow will make them have to take risks to loot the people of the Central Plains, the hatred between the two sides is getting deeper and deeper in the battles, for many people in the Central Plains, the image of the alien people is no different from the demons.
"Haha, what's there to worry about? Since they have joined Fengxiang, they are the people of Fengxiang, and it doesn't matter what nationality they are from. In Fengxiang, it has always been a meritocracy! ”
"Meritocracy...... The lord of Aniu City is broad-minded, and Mi Zhu has been taught. ”
Although he knew the name of Fengxiang for a long time, Mi Zhu still felt that Feng Xiang's strength had greatly exceeded his expectations, and Suruga Town was the eleventh subordinate territory of Feng Xiang, and Mi Zhu knew very well the strength behind this information. Fengxiang is worthy of being the first city in the world!
But then there was something that surprised Mi Zhu even more, Li Jin also rushed to greet Ah Niu after learning that Ah Niu was coming.
"Lord!"
"Are you still used to sending your troops here?" A certain city lord looked at this king-level general, his eyes full of smiles.
"Thank you for your concern, it's good here. My 5oo cavalry is actually very suitable for being stationed here, and with Hulunbei they take care of the horses, and the soldiers save a lot of work. Those 500 Wuhuan high-grade war horses have long been domesticated, and the run-in with the soldiers is very smooth! Li Jin couldn't help but be moved, and Ah Niu's casual greeting made this king-level military general suddenly have the consciousness of being willing to do it.
Although Mi Zhu is not familiar with military affairs, he was born in a family of giant businessmen and has very good eyesight. A king-level military general like Li Jin already has a compelling momentum, and Mi Zhu secretly compares Li Jin with the outstanding figures in his own family, and he knows the extraordinaryness of this general! While Ah Niu was preparing to sell more than 8oo war horses, he had actually formed a cavalry unit of 5oo people, and the mounts he used were all Wuhuan high-grade war horses! What kind of strength is needed!
What Mi Zhu appreciates the most is the easy-going nature of Ah Niu, and an outstanding military general like Li Jin will die without regrets in an understatement, in fact, Mi Zhu has deeply felt when he watched coldly all the way, Feng Xiang's love for Ah Niu from the heart.
"How are these horses of the city lord of Ah Niu going to be sold?" Mi Zhu said plainly, but he was actually quite satisfied. The war horse captured by Ah Niu from the Yellow Turban is of good qualification, and it is not difficult for such a horse to sell for 6ooo gold in Xuzhou. What's even more rare is that the number reaches more than 8oo horses!
"What price do you think these horses are worth?" The corners of Ah Niu's mouth curled slightly, and he stopped and looked at Mi Zhu with a smile. The nostrils still flutter slightly, and the olfactory system in this game is also well simulated, and the air in the valley is much fresher than in the territory.
"These horses are of good quality, and although they can't catch up with the horses outside the Saiwai, they are rare horses in states and counties that don't produce horses. If it is in You, Bing, and Liangzhou, Ah Niu's horses are probably only worth 4ooo gold, but in Qing and Xuzhou, these horses should have no problem selling for 6ooo gold. But selling horses is very risky, the road is not very smooth, just to bring the horses back, you have to send a lot of manpower, plus my family is a businessman, of course, to make some money, this price is really difficult to set. Although Mi Zhu has been taking care of family affairs, this humble gentleman's style is still undoubted, not to mention that the business is as large as the Mi family, and what is more important is integrity.
"Since Zizhong is so frank, Ah Niu is no longer rubbing, how about 4ooo gold? This time I can give you 8oo horses, and we need to add some horses to the post station in our territory. Ah Niu raised four fingers to match what he said.
"Why did Ah Niu offer such a price? In this way, didn't Mi Zhu take too much advantage? Mi Zhu was confused and couldn't help asking.
"It's simple. Feng Xiang is in urgent need of money now, and it is a matter of course to deal with it cheaper; There is also Brother Mi's demeanor that makes Ah Niu very heartbroken, and now I can meet Brother Mi, a little money is nothing, I believe we have the possibility of long-term cooperation in the future! ”
Ah Niu, who is familiar with the Three Kingdoms, of course knows the energy of the Xuzhou Mi family, and if he can get on the line with such a wealthy family, it will be beneficial to the future development of the territory. If Fengxiang and Mijia become trading partners, not to mention anything else, Mijia's mature business channels can benefit Fengxiang a lot!
Although Fengxiang has been upgraded to a city, there is still a long way to go if it is recognized by a big business like Mi's. The current Fengxiang City, strictly speaking, does not have the strength and qualifications to have fair relations with a wealthy family like the Mi family, and Ah Niu is just constantly in contact from now on.
The two chatted all the way, and before they knew it, they had returned to Fengxiang.
Mi Zhu glanced at Ah Niu, and suddenly seemed to have made up his mind, and continued:
"Ah Niu City Lord treats each other like this, Mi Zhu is very uneasy. There is a small gift in his hand, and I think the city lord of Ah Niu will definitely be able to use it. ”
At Mi Zhu's signal, a guard came up with a brocade box.
Ah Niu didn't pretend either, and happily opened the box, but couldn't help but be silent! I only saw Chen Gong next to him hesitating.
What's in the box? (To be continued)
