"Shujing, Shujing!"

Ning He asked for directions according to the name of the inn given by Mu Bai when they parted yesterday, met Mu Bai and Lao Ke, helped settle the bill, and left the inn, but heard someone shouting to him.

Looking back, it was Cheng Chen, He Lanqi and others were also beside him, so they went over to say hello one by one.

"Let's just say that we are destined, I saw you as soon as I left the house." Cheng Chen walked over with a smile and punched Ning He in the chest.

"Shujing, have you already left, didn't the official come to trouble last night." He Lanqi stepped forward to say hello and said.

Ning He replied: "Shi Niang doesn't like us to follow, she is annoyed, she has already left, Yinnu is waiting for me in the market, there is still a lot of way to go to Ying'an, she has no mount, go buy a carriage."

"Master? Sister? Cheng Chen looked at the two of them suspiciously.

After Ning He explained what happened yesterday, Cheng Chen was dissatisfied and said: "You kid is not authentic, you don't say hello when you have something, you recognize your brother, should you be a decoration?"

"My bad, my bad!" Ning He was busy begging for mercy.

"This time it's your family matter, let's forget it, next time you don't treat us as brothers, you'll be really angry." Cheng Chen nodded with satisfaction and hummed.

Then he said: "You are also out of the city today, so you will go to Ying'an?"

After Ning He nodded, Cheng Chen immediately said again: "Haha, then we happen to be together, and we also happen to go to the market and take the goods together."

He Lanqi also said: "We have a carriage and horse shop, this time we came to Pinglang, that is, we sold a batch of Haixi horses, those Haixi Kawen horses, tall and powerful, good endurance, just suitable for long travel, a while for you to lead two sets of cars."

"That's great. But let's say okay, I'll give the market price, although I'm not as rich as you, but I also have a lot of money, so you don't need to help me save. Ning He smiled and shook his head.

After meeting these people, coincidences went smoothly everywhere, which made him feel very happy.

But friends belong to friends, business belongs to business, He Lanqi said that he didn't mean to ask for money, he couldn't do it.

Sure enough, when his voice fell, Cheng Chen stretched out his arm to clamp his neck, and said angrily: "After I finished talking just now, it was a brother, a broken horse, you are polite, you are really angry with me!"

Ning He soothed: "Brothers belong to brothers, business belongs to business, you sell horses and come back to sell, it's not that you don't need cost and energy, if you invite me to drink, I will definitely not refuse."

"Fuck off! Wine and meat friends, don't do it! Cheng Chen pushed him, snorted angrily and said again.

"Uh" Ning He spread his hands in a daze, and looked at He Lanqi and the others for help, but heard He Lanqi say: "Shujing, we didn't treat you as an outsider, why bother with this little thing."

"Yes." Ning He shook his head and smiled bitterly, and gave Cheng Chen a light kick in the past, "Don't pretend to be a calf, I'll invite you to drink." ”

"Okay!" Cheng Chen smiled, no longer had a straight face, and began to walk shoulder to shoulder with Ning He again.

He Lanqi greeted Mu Bai and led people to catch up.

Mu Bai sat in the carriage and walked slowly behind.

When he arrived at the bazaar, Ning He quickly found Gongye Ziyi.

The reason, the entire carriage and horse shops in Pinglang West City are all from the Cheng family and He Lan's family.

"Brothers, this is my junior sister, Gongye Ziyi. Yinnu, this is my new brother, Yun You, you saw it yesterday, this is Cheng Chen, Xiao Guang, Linghu Anyan......"

After taking a photo, Ning He introduced everyone to each other, said hello to each other, and Ning He and the others sat down and waited for a while.

And He Lanqi and Cheng Chen were busy.

Cheng Chen personally went to pick a horse for Ning He, while He Lanqi and the others went to see if the goods were loaded or not, so as to set off as soon as possible.

"You have no money? What's the matter, the family property is robbed? ”

During this period, there was a steward who told Cheng Chen that Gongye Ziyi was actually optimistic about a horse, but it was never finalized, and he only said that he would wait for someone to come and pay to buy it.

Cheng Chen whispered to Ning He, and Ning He frowned and asked Xiang Gongye Ziyi.

A generation of nobles, even if it declines, the family property is not as rich as ordinary people can imagine, even if it is cut down now, it will not be wiped out so quickly.

"No, I've divided them all." Gongye Ziyi Road.

When she left home to take revenge, Mu Bai had not yet been dismissed, she was afraid that she would kill the official and bring others to the burden, and after her father was buried, she divided the family property, and she was also removed from the clan and left the house.

"Silly, huh." Ning He knew what was going on, and shook his head speechlessly.

Then he said: "Shi Niang will not be afraid that you will eat her poor, so she will ......."

"I," Gongye Ziyi was about to cry, Ning He saw that he stabbed Lou Zi, patted his head, and said busily: "I'll just talk about playing, na, I'll just have this thousand eight hundred taels, you can keep it."

"Why don't you have any money?" Gongye Ziyi smoothly accepted a bag of gold leaves, and then asked.

Ning He sold the family property, she and Qin Yu both knew about it, a total of more than 300,000 taels, so quickly, it was all spent? How much does the Wolf Cavalry cost?

Ning He spread his hands, "It's also divided." ”

After the first battle of Yanbei Pass, he quietly made up half of the bereavement pension for the families of his comrades who died in the war, which was less at that time, only seven or eight people.

Later, during the Battle of Wolf Mountain, there were dozens or hundreds of battles during the period, and he also secretly sent some to the homes of his brothers who died in battle.

It's not that he's generous, it's that for five whole years, none of them have received a full pension.

He can't take care of the entire Zhenbei Army, not to mention that he doesn't have that ability, and the generals don't have it.

He can only take care of the people around him and some brothers he knows.

The border army recruits a lot of soldiers, they take money to sell their lives, their lives are gone, and if they don't have any money to take it, how can their families survive?

This is the beginning, there is no head, his Liezi camp is a scout camp, and there is basically no idle time.

Until this time, it was basically equivalent to all the deaths in the battle, and he fortunately gave the rest of the money to the brothers' families, as well as a few brothers who left the wolf rider alive, including the only ancestral wine guide and wine-making recipe he left back then, and also gave them together, so that they could have a job and buy a little peace of conscience.

He used it all the way, but he robbed it, and he robbed the idiot of the Liu family in Jibei, and he didn't leave a penny.

Although there are a lot, thousands of taels, but all the way, plus he was embarrassed to pay a heavy gift yesterday, and he is about to see the bottom.

"Big silly cat!" When Gongye Ziyi heard this, he immediately returned the sentence, and he refused to suffer at all.

Then he said: "Put the money here for me, I don't have a place for Huo Huo now, you can't do it, you can give Huo Huo out with a few meals, I really count on your money, I'm afraid you will starve me to death."

"Whatever you want." Ning He didn't care at all, it was a big deal that he would be done suppressing bandits along the way, he wouldn't make money, he was definitely professional in robbing money.

"Hey, hey~ Are you two sure you're a brother and sister, not an unmarried couple?" Cheng Chen came back with the horse, looked at the two people who were about to put their heads together, and kept talking to each other, and suddenly joked.

"Black fat man, don't shout, my aunt can take a fancy to this thing!"

"San Lang, I always thought you had good eyesight, but this time you got your eyes!"

Gongye Ziyi and Ning He looked at each other with disgust and said.

"Hahaha." Cheng Chen smiled and said nothing, and said, "Come on, Gongye sister, Shujing, look at how I pick these two horses."

Horses are naturally good horses, not to mention ordinary horses, even Ning He's war horses are slightly inferior to them.

I saw these two swarthy horses, seven feet tall, half a head taller than Ning He, with slender legs but solid muscles, smooth and pleasant waist and abdomen, long manes and long tails, extremely elegant.

"Such a good horse, pulling a cart is blind." Gongye Ziyi shook his head and looked at Ning He, with a hint of refusal.

Ning He also knew that this was not an ordinary horse, it was rare to be a hundred gold, and he refused to take advantage of it.

Don't look at him and Gongye Ziyi taking 1,800 taels of silver very seriously, but the purchasing power of Daqin silver is still very strong, even if it is 100 taels of silver, it is a huge amount of money for ordinary people.

Taking rice as an example, 30 catties of Daqin bucket rice only cost 15 yuan.

And one tael of silver can be exchanged for 800 to 1,200 copper coins in various provinces, but the purity of silver and copper produced in various places is different, and it fluctuates slightly.

On Pinglang's side, one tael of silver can be exchanged for an average price of 1,000 copper coins, and those porters at the dock only earn six or seven hundred wen a month, which is already a lot.

It seems that the mutton that Ning He ate at the dock, a pound of stewed meat, plus four flax cakes, costs forty-five yuan, which is already something that they are not willing to eat for ten days and half a month, or even a month.

An ordinary horse that can be ridden is only between three taels of silver and five taels of silver.

A bullock is about the same price.

And Ning He's current salary, or military salary, is 300 stone a year, half of the money and half of the food in terms of rice and flour.

One stone, ten buckets, three hundred catties, converted, it is only forty or fifty taels of silver.

"Shut up, I don't have much cost, I really don't care about you anymore and kick you out." Cheng Chen didn't wait for him to open his mouth, he stopped him directly, and threatened: "Otherwise, I will slaughter the two of them, and we can eat meat."

"You roll the calf." Ning He rolled his eyes, and hurriedly took the two horses into his hands, he didn't care, he was in contact, and he would pay it back if he owed it, always turning people away kindly, but it made people who were interested in making friends feel uncomfortable.

"yes, it's a fart." Seeing this, Cheng Chen nodded happily, and pulled Ning He to the place where the car was set.

The frames are all ready-made, and it doesn't take much time to find a suitable set of two.

When they went back, He Lanqi and them also returned, and everything was in order, and everyone led their horses and drove them together.

At this time, Mu Bai also arrived slowly.

"Sir, would like to sit with me."

Gongye Ziyi turned around and got into the carriage, but did not look at him, while Ning He stepped forward to apologize, pointing to another carriage and inviting Mu Bai to transfer.

"Why don't you sit?" Mu Bai smiled and signaled that Ning He didn't need to care about the inappropriateness between him and Gongye Ziyi, and then happily agreed.

He didn't change the carriage all the way before, because he had no money himself, and there were wolf cavalry recruiters in Xiaoguan County, and he also knew what Ning He did to Pao Ze, and he didn't want him to spend money for nothing.

Now that he has the car, he is no longer entangled, and he is not as twisted as Ning He about rubbing his friends.

"Well, I'll move your things."

Ning He smiled and helped to carry the boxes of things on the old carriage to the new car, these boxes, except for some shabby clothes, were all books.

As for the old horse and carriage, after finishing his mission, He Lanqi called someone to give an order, let them take it away and raise it, indicating that he had time to send it to Mu Bai.

It's just that Mu Bai refused, just said don't slaughter and eat meat, he doesn't want it, the right to be Ning He has already bought it, anyway, he won't lose.

So they went on the road together, and walked together.
