Chapter 69: Wuling City
Following.
Outside the gate of the East Courtyard of the Xiao Family.
Xiao Yuqing and Chen Sanjo waved goodbye.
He didn't stay long, but went out directly to the Xiao family, and then ran to a place where horses were sold.
Originally, Xiao Zhan, the head of the Xiao family, prepared a good horse for him.
But Chen Santiao refused.
He didn't wait for the Xiao family and the other children of the Snow Old Town who had entered the Six Academies to leave together.
They are all escorted by family members.
After all, Snow Old City is still some distance away from the imperial capital Luo'an City.
They had to ensure that the seedlings of the family entered the six academies safely, which was the top priority for every family.
In this Bingwu Empire.
They still have to be cautious.
Therefore, there will be a large team of men and horses to escort them.
Chen Santiao obviously refused.
He planned to set out on his way to Luo'an City alone.
What's more, he still has to go to Wuling City?
That's what he cares about.
Walking in the snow old town, the streets are still quiet and celebratory today.
After all.
This is a triennial event in Snow Old Town.
After this incident.
Now, Chen Santiao's status in the old snow town has also been suddenly raised.
Even the owner of the horse seller greeted him with a smile on his face when he saw a black horse jumping out of the young handsome man in the old snow town.
This is to be put on hold.
How can Chen Santiao be treated like this?
It's just that.
He still walked into the horse farm quietly.
The owner of the horse farm is a short and fat man, called Ma Liu, but on the ground of the Snow Old City, no one really dares to call him his natal life, they all call him Ma Ye, it is very simple, the people who can sell horses in the Ice Martial Empire have more or less some relationship.
Very simple.
Ma Liu is such a relational household.
It is said that his second uncle and aunt's relatives are in charge of the horses, so they entrusted people to spare most of the circle, and then set up a horse farm in the old city of snow, although it is not as powerful as the Dandian in the old city of snow, but no one dares to provoke.
Seeing Chen Santiao's arrival, Ma Liu immediately smiled and said, "Yo, isn't this Young Master Chen?"
Are you going to pick a good horse?"
He naturally heard about it in the rumors of the Snow Old Town, and the young man in front of him was the real dark horse of the Snow Old Town this time.
He couldn't help but glance at the young man in front of him more, and continued, "Congratulations to Young Master Chen for being able to enter Taiyuan Academy this time!"
Chen Santiao just smiled.
He didn't go too far into gags with the already well-established horse farm owner, but pointed to a skinny horse in the field and said, "That's it!"
Ma Liu was stunned at first.
This moment.
Even if a human like him feels dizzy for a while, this kid came here to cry poor on purpose, right?
Now in the old snow town, who doesn't know? Who doesn't know? Today's Chen Santiao is a dark horse!
Ma Liu's face smiled brightly, "Young Master Chen, you are no longer what you used to be, can this horse be worthy of your identity?"
Chen Santiao laughed at this.
Didn't pay attention to his words.
He just continued: "Master Ma, don't be kidding, I want this horse." How much do you offer?"
When Ma Liu heard this, he still seemed to be a little unwilling.
"Master Ma, I've always been like this, I can't get used to sitting on a tall horse, a bad horse, I like it!" Before Ma Liu could continue to speak, Chen Santiao directly interrupted Ma Liu's words and continued,
"Besides, what kind of person am I in this snow old city, don't you know? I have no money, no power, no power. How can I deserve your praise?"
When Ma Liu heard this, the whole person felt bad.
Isn't this a man who has attained the Tao and a chicken dog ascended to heaven?
Such a big good thing?
This guy in front of you is actually unhappy?
It seems that there is still a feeling of worry, which is really unpredictable for him, and Ma Liu is too lazy to find out.
Ma Liu smiled helplessly.
Let's be honest.
If he is to be asked to speculate on this man's heart, it is better for him to speculate on these horses.
Seeing that Chen Santiao was still unrelenting and refused to give up.
Seems to have a lot of interest in the skinny horse.
Ma Liu shook his head helplessly and said with a wry smile: "Okay, this horse is just this one, and the price is not much, for the sake of you Young Master Chen, just take it away with one or two pieces of silver." ”
Chen Sanjo smiled.
Then, he took out a tael of silver from his pocket and threw it to Ma Liu, with a smile on his face: "Yes, then I'm welcome!"
I didn't wait for this guy to catch the silver.
Chen Santiao led the horse out of the racecourse.
He didn't immediately get on the horse, but kept leading the horse out of the racecourse.
One man and one horse.
It gradually disappeared from the sight of Ma Liu, the owner of the racecourse.
How shrewd is Ma Liu?
Although he has read countless horses, this reading horses and knowing people are actually the same truth.
Besides.
He had seen too many people in this racecourse.
You can know some details of these people in a single action, or even in a back and forth speech.
For example, what kind of identity it is, what kind of horse you like, what price you can offer, and even where it is from, and where it is in the old snow town, you can know it clearly.
However.
The person in front of him is on the bright side, except for the descendants of the Xiao family, he basically has no way to start, because this guy doesn't play cards according to common sense at all.
Ma Liu thought of this.
He couldn't help but shake his head with a wry smile.
Then.
He sighed softly, "I can't see through it...... Can't see through ......"
......
Out of the snow old town.
It is the post road to the next city.
The post road is a kind of road created by the Great Qin Empire of the Bingwu Empire, with the capital as the center and extending to the territory under its jurisdiction.
The Great Qin Empire on the Netherworld. It is a unified country, and His Majesty the Emperor has unified weights and measures, unified currency, unified post roads, unified language, culture, and so on.
Great Qin Empire.
It's a well-deserved existence.
Among the many unifications, the unification of this post road provided a well-connected transportation network for dynasties for thousands of years to come.
After this.
In this world, there are few divisions, and many are combined.
That's the credit of the post road.
As long as the decree is issued in the imperial capital, it can go from the center of the dynasty to the locality, and it is very fast.
In order to better rule its own territory, the current Bingwu Empire has inherited the construction of post roads in Great Qin, and it is more large-scale, widening on top of the previous standards of post roads, and there is also a provision that ordinary people are allowed to walk in wartime, but in wartime, this post road must not be occupied.
It doesn't matter what kind of royal relatives you are, or what kind of wealthy family you are, these are iron laws, and no one is allowed to trespass.
If someone commits it, then the head falls to the ground.
This is very rigorous and valued in the Ice Martial Empire.
Although there has been no war in these years, it has a deep imprint in people's hearts.
Then.
A young man in white is walking on a post road with a thin horse.
The sun in the sky is slowly setting in the west.
Soon.
There was only a glimmer of afterglow left.
The whole world is rendered red.
Stand in the afterglow.
Look not far away.
The white-clothed young man said with a smile in his eyes: "Wuling City!"
