Lei Zhen smiled and arched his hand, "What the city lord said is true, our gang has indeed transferred the war horse to the Qi country. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Chu Laike said: "If you have no objections, then start trading, according to the current price on the market, the plough horse is ten taels of silver, the war horse is forty-five taels and one one, and my war horse in Tubo is only forty taels and one, do you think it is fair?" Everyone said: "Not only fair, but also of high quality." Chu Laike said: "Okay, first of all, the forty-five thousand war horses of the Jin Kingdom, which is worth one million and eight hundred thousand taels of silver, I wonder if King Lu has prepared a silver ticket?" Wan Yanchang smiled and said: "Of course, please accept it from the city lord." He took out several large silver tickets, placed them on the red lacquered tray prepared by the servant, and brought them to the guest table of Chu Lai, and then Marpa recorded them. Chu Laike glanced at the silver ticket and said: "These are all silver tickets issued by Yuantong Money Bank, no matter where they are, they can be fully cashed, and now in troubled times, only the silver ticket of 'Yuantong' is the most reassuring." Wan Yanchang said: "The head office of Yuantong is in the territory of my Jin country, as long as my Jin country is not destroyed, 'Yuantong' will also stand, although the city lord can rest assured." ”

Chu Laike nodded and said, "Below are the 30,000 taels of war horses of the Song Kingdom, a total of 1.2 million taels. Qin Hui said with a smile: "The old man's silver ticket is also issued by Yuantong, please check it by the city lord." "After the Song Dynasty finished trading, the 25,000 horses of Western Xia and the 20,000 horses of Dali were also successfully traded. When he arrived in the Qi country, Chu Laike said: "There are 25,000 horses in the Qi country, a total of one million taels. Lin Lingsu said: "We don't have a silver ticket for Yuantong, we use a silver ticket issued by my Great Qi State, please check it from the city lord." ”

The servant sent the silver ticket to Chu Lai's table, and Marpa stopped his pen and said: "Now in the time of war, the silver tickets of various countries are not reliable, only the 'Yuantong' silver tickets jointly issued by Persia and Nepal and other countries are trustworthy to everyone, even the Jin and Song countries dare not use their own silver tickets, is the silver ticket of your Qi country more valuable than these two countries? Marpa said: "I also believe that your country can take it, but the number is too large, and the old man does not dare to call the shots." Chu Laike said: "As long as the Jin Kingdom is willing to guarantee your country, we will accept the silver ticket." Wan Yanchang glanced at Liu Lin and Lin Lingsu angrily, and said, "Okay, I'm the guarantor of the Jin Kingdom." After that, he took the pen and ink and made a note. Marpa put away the silver ticket along with the note.

Wan Yanchang suddenly smiled and said: "Since the Blood Knife Fort got Guanzhong, the local Yuantong Money Village has all been closed, and there is no trustworthy money bank in Guanzhong at present, I don't know where the 800,000 taels of silver tickets issued by the Lord of Luobao were issued." Luo Tianchu said: "It was issued by my local Ruixing money bank in Guanzhong, the boss of the money bank is surnamed Jin, and the relationship with me is not bad." Chu Laike frowned when he heard this, and Wan Yanchang laughed and said: "Ruixing Qianzhuang, it's so famous, have you heard of it?" Qin Hui shook his head and smiled: "No, who would dare to trust a money village in a chaotic people's nest." Luo Tianchu smiled slightly, not cramped. Chu Laike said: "Lord Luobao, we don't dare to accept such a silver ticket, do you have a guarantor to guarantor for you?" Luo Tianchu smiled and said, "Yes, who wants to vouch for me?"

After a long time, no one said anything, and Wan Yanchang sneered: "Only a fool will guarantee you." Luo Tianchu smiled faintly: "It seems that I really can't find a guarantor." Li Qingwan said: "This palace is willing to help, but this palace has no right to decide such a big matter on behalf of Western Xia." Duan Changxiao also said apologetically: "I can't represent Dali, please ask the castle master Haihan." Luo Tianchu smiled: "It's okay, I'm very pleased to have two of them." Qin Hui said: "But you still can't find a guarantor, you might as well give the purchase amount to the Jin Kingdom, and only the Great Jin Kingdom has the strength to accept your 20,000 war horses." Wan Yanchang said with a smile: "Yes, the old man is willing to exchange five hundred taels for your horse purchase." ”

Luo Tianchu said with a smile: "I'm here to buy horses, not to sell horses." Buying and selling things pays attention to real money and silver, Tong Su is not deceived, and no matter how good the reputation of the silver ticket is, it is not as reliable as the silver, isn't it?" Qin Hui said: "You have 800,000 taels of silver?" Luo Tianchu said: "Before leaving, Gongsun Junshi expected that there would be such a situation, and he had already sent Lu Fei and Du Shu to personally escort the silver car to Tianshui, and the city lord could take the silver ticket to Tianshui to withdraw the silver, and it would not be too late to send us horses after receiving the silver." Chu Laike secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a pleased smile: "Lord Luobao really won't disappoint the old man, the old man will accept your silver ticket, and Marba will take someone to Tianshui to withdraw the silver, and after the silver is correct, he will immediately send the horse to Guanzhong." Luo Tianchu said: "That's the best." ”

Duan Changxiao said with a smile: "Lord Luobao's move is really magnificent, 800,000 taels of silver, even if I Dali can't get it in a short time." Wan Yanchang said: "The treasure of Qianliao is really rich, but if you think that the treasure can help you turn things around, you are wrong, don't have any hope." Luo Tianchu smiled: "Everyone should have hope, only the dead have no hope." ”

Chu Laike said: "Okay, now that the transaction is over, let's start the auction." There are 20,000 horses available for auction this time, starting at 35 taels or 700,000 taels of silver, and you can now place your bids. Everyone looked at each other, but they did not bid immediately, not because they were humble to each other, but because no country was rich, and the silver ticket for buying a horse just now was already a huge expense, and it was difficult to come up with another 700,000 taels to buy a horse. After half a ring, Chu Laike smiled and said, "No one bids? Luo Tianchu suddenly said: "I will pay 700,000 taels." Chu Laike said: "Okay, the lord of Luobao paid 700,000 taels, if no one bids higher, then the winner of this auction is... Wan Yanchang said: "The old man gave 730,000. Chu Laike said: "King Lu's 730,000, is there anyone still bidding?" Luo Tianchu said: "750,000." Wan Yanchang said: "Seven hundred and eighty thousand." Luo Tianchu said: "800,000." Wan Yanchang hesitated for a moment and said, "Eight hundred and twenty thousand." ”

Luo Tianchu said: "It seems that King Lu is determined to win these 20,000 war horses. Wan Yanchang said: "If someone else bids, the old man will never raise the price, only your Blood Knife Castle can't." Luo Tianchu smiled and said, "Then I'll pay 900,000 taels." Wan Yanchang's face changed slightly, he squinted at him, and said word for word: "Nine hundred and twenty thousand." Luo Tianchu said: "One million taels." Wan Yanchang's face changed, although he was in a high position in the Jin Dynasty, he had no right to use more than one million taels of huge funds, he sneered: "The young man is so impulsive, the old man will not fight with you." Luo Tianchu smiled: "Thank you." ”

Of course, Luo Tianchu was not impulsive, before he came, he was determined to win this auction, and he wanted to win these 20,000 war horses at any cost, and he was ready to spend 1.5 million taels in his heart. He cherishes the hard-won treasures of Qianliao more than anyone else, although Guanzhong is rich in products, weapons, armor, and food can be produced by himself, but there is a lack of horses, and war horses are the weapons of victory on the battlefield, a cavalry can destroy several times the enemy if used properly, so he must buy enough war horses to equip the cavalry, his life is only five years left, and there are not many opportunities left for him, so he can only choose to gamble.

Chu Laike said: "If there is no objection, the lord of Luobao will win the auction, and a total of 40,000 war horses will be sent to Guanzhong together." Luo Tianchu took out another silver ticket of one million taels and handed it to Marpa. Chu Laike got up and said, "This is the end of the horse viewing party, welcome everyone to Huangsha City." We will give the war horse to you as soon as possible, and you can leave on your own now. If you have leisure to play in Tibet, Marpa will arrange a tour guide to accompany you. Duan Changxiao said: "Then please find a tour guide for Zaixia, and Zai Xia plans to play in your country for a while." Chu Laike smiled and said: "Does Duan Gongzi want a female tour guide?" Duan Changxiao laughed and said: "This is the best, the city lord is really thoughtful, I don't know if Brother Liu, Brother Luo is willing to play with him." ”

Luo Tianchu said with a smile: "Thank you for the invitation, but unfortunately we still have things to do, I really envy Childe's freedom." Duan Changxiao smiled and sighed: "Only people who have nothing to do are at ease, I should envy you." Luo Tianchu smiled: "Childe is modest. Duan Changxiao said: "Lord Luobao is a busy man, I don't know if Her Royal Highness the princess is willing to go along?" Li Qingwan laughed and said: "Unfortunately, the little girl also has something." Duan Changxiao laughed and said, "Okay, okay, then I'm leaving, take care." After saying that, he sprinkled away, and chanted: "The world is busy and I am alone, and I am drunk until tomorrow." Looking at his back, Luo Tianchu said: "Brother Duan is really a free and easy person, if there is really something wrong, I really want to get drunk with him until tomorrow." Liu Shaoqing said lightly: "You will never have nothing to do." Luo Tianchu sighed: "He envies my full life, I envy him for living freely, people always like to envy some things that can't be obtained, but I don't know that what I have is also envied by others." Liu Shaoqing said: "I feel less emotional, it's time for us to leave." Only then did they say goodbye to Chu Laike, who looked at Luo Tianchu and said, "Everything is please." Luo Tianchu knew that he was talking about the Dongting Gang, so he said: "The juniors do their best." ”

The guests walked down the castle tower one after another, returned to the inn to pack their things and prepare to leave. Zhu Yushi has always been with the horse gang and the people of Qi State, and he has no chance to talk to Luo Tianchu. can only cherish each other in their hearts, and I don't know when we will see each other again.

Luo Tianchu and Liu Shaoqing quickly packed up their salutes, went out to take a look, and saw that Li Qingwan was instructing the four daughters to let them go back to Western Xia first. Liu Shaoqing asked Luo Tianchu: "Does she really want to go with us?" Luo Tianchu nodded and said: "Yes, I also want to take the opportunity to get to know her, it's always good to have one more reliable friend." At this time, the four daughters of Jiwa said goodbye and left, Li Qingwan smiled and beckoned to them, and said, "I'm also ready, I can go." (To be continued.) )
