Chapter 192: Buying a wildebeest
"Our horses aren't good enough?" asked Linko.
"The number of guards is too large, and the price of being generally equipped with good horses for the previous Chamber of Commerce is a bit large, and after all, the task of the Chamber of Commerce guards is to guard the flow of goods within the empire, and there are relatively few opportunities for battle, so although there is still a big gap compared to the first-class war horses, it is not bad," Nicole explained. This is still a situation when the God of War Empire has abundant war horses, I once heard my father say that most of the chamber of commerce guards in the Six Eastern Nations Alliance cannot be equipped with horses, after all, merchants are highly profitable, you know ......"
"Okay, you can mention the matter of the replacement of the war horse to Uncle Lance later, just take your time, but I also want to go tomorrow to see the current situation of the big black horse, so by the way, let's buy fifty good mounts first, always be able to meet the marching requirements, Neil will take everyone with us tomorrow, I can't get back so many cattle alone," Lin Ke smiled, "It's just right to see if these boys are qualified to control such mounts!"
So early the next morning, when Linko and Neil walked out of the academy gates, they saw fifty guards wearing uniform knightly armor, but not riding horses, but standing there alone, waiting.
As soon as Lin Ke and the two appeared, fifty people made a knightly salute on the armor with their fists.
Lin Ke smiled and walked up to the knights who were neatly lined up in two rows and said, "I don't know how to do it, but the news is very well-informed!"
Everyone chuckled, and at last Leo spoke, "Lord Baron, how can a knight not love to ride well, after Lord Neil came to tell us last night, probably none of the fifty people had a good night's sleep." ”
Linko glanced back at Neil and smiled, "I don't see that you are still an impatient, but when did Leo become so polite and call Lord Baron, I don't like this name, what our own brothers used to call and how they are now, in the future," he paused and glanced at everyone, "I don't know how far I can go, but no matter where he stands, you guys who will always follow me will always be your own people." ”
"Yes, young master!" Leo said in a slightly trembling voice.
"Yes, young master!" said the elder brothers of the Sixteen Iron Guards in unison.
"Yes, young master!" roared dozens of young people.
"Let's go, go to the mount market, but then again, won't you be tired walking in this armor, though the mount market isn't far from here," Rinko tapped Leo's heavy armor.
"I can't stand this hard work and don't let the young master underestimate us," Leo smiled, less serious when he was in Windy City, but a little more free and easy for the old soldiers, "Besides, if you don't wear good armor, how can you be worthy of a good horse." ”
Lin Ke nodded, and secretly praised in his heart, the seventh grandfather really has a way to train his soldiers.
The mount market is not very far from the God of War Academy, and it is only a short walk away.
Located in the center of the Empire, Aresburg was not only the political and cultural center of the Empire, but also the most economically developed city in the entire Empire, with a wide range of goods, both good and bad.
The mount market is a single commodity trading venue that emerges in this environment.
The mount market covers a wide area, but the geographical location is not bad, it is really a very special position for the imperial capital people, hunting mounts for hunting, mounts for competitions, mounts for battles, mounts for travel, and a wide variety of types.
What Lin Ke and the others were looking for was naturally a combat mount.
"This young master, are you going to buy a combat mount?!" Before Lin Ke could take a few looks, a small businessman who gave the impression of being clever and capable at a glance came over, "Do you use it yourself or ......" His small eyes glanced at the large group of guards behind Lin Ke.
"Naturally, they were bought for me," Lin Ke did not take his eyes off the horses on either side, but his voice was just right for the merchants around him to hear.
Sure enough, businessmen flocked to it!
"This young master, you have to come to our chamber of commerce to buy so many mounts, it's absolutely cheap!" said a tall and thin man trotting over with a smile on his face.
"How can the thin man speak, do you see that the young master's heroic posture can be a cheap person?!" the little man who ran over before said indignantly, "Buying a mount for your own guard is not only cheap, but you have to rest assured, don't you?" ”
"Come on, little man, when we don't know what good goods you can have, this young master is going to buy some good horses at a glance, you can get so many good horses? Young master, our chamber of commerce is a famous big chamber of commerce, not to mention good horses, even good horses with the same coat color can find a large piece," a big fat man wearing gold and silver on the other side said arrogantly.
"Good horse," Lin Ke nodded the big fat man's belly and said, "Young master, I don't want any good horses," he paused for a moment to appreciate the changes in the expressions of the merchants around him before he said slowly and surprisingly, "I want to buy wildebeests, fifty wildebeests!"
"Wildebeest?!"
"Wildebeest !!"
"Fifty horses!"
There was a gasp all around, and then many merchants dispersed, leaving only the big fat man who was pointed out by Lin Ke and the second thin and tall man who came over.
"This young master is really arrogant, I have made a deal with your friend, as long as you come to our chamber of commerce to buy, the price is absolutely fair, I will give you a big discount, and give you some gadgets that you can use, how about it?!" The big fat man said very righteously.
"Cut, dead fat man, isn't it possible to deceive people with this set again?" the tall and thin man said unceremoniously, "If it were some ordinary guests, you might really bluff people with this set, but don't you look at the identity of this young master, and you are embarrassed to use your things to deceive people?" Young master, come to our shop, the goods are genuine, you can rest assured, I also expect you to become a repeat guest of our Chamber of Commerce, and what you give you must be good goods!"
The big fat man suddenly became anxious, strode forward and grabbed the thin and tall collar and said viciously, "You skinny and dry dog, you dare to slander me?!"
"Okay, okay," Lin Ke said with a smile, "I have the gold coin, young master, I won't buy the mount this time, if it really gives me face, I won't be too lazy to change homes in the future, both of you understand, right?"
The big fat man and the tall and thin man nodded their heads one after another.
"Then let's go and see together, whose things are better, isn't it something that you can understand at a glance?" Lin Ke smiled brightly at the two of them.
The two glanced at each other, and then the tall and thin man took the lead and said, "Then the young master will come with me first, I guarantee that you will never change places after seeing our mounts, we really have this confidence!" The tall and thin man glanced at the fat man defiantly as he spoke.
