Chapter 1642 Prince Gong’s Mansion

There is no need to believe the propaganda of people in this horse market. These people can be said to be white even if they are dead, and they can be said to be black if they are black. However, this boss looks very cool.

It was pretty good. At least Zhu Kui thought that what this guy said was true, but there was no guarantee at the moment. After Zhu Kui obtained the guy's consent, he directly got on his horse and took two steps. It turns out that the horse market is not that spacious.

But now there are not that many people at all, so Zhu Kui can still go up and run for a while. It seems that the horse is doing very well. After wandering for a few minutes, Zhu Kui came back.

"Lord City Lord, these grassland horses are very good and can be used to arm our light cavalry." Zhu Kui said in a low voice. The horse dealer looked proud. If the quality is really considered, his horses are definitely fine.

of.

"Well, your horses are indeed good. This is our document. We are purchasing horses for the army." When the horse dealer heard this, he was so happy that he didn't know what to do. Many people who came with him were excited.

They waited for the city gate to open before going back. They didn't think they could encounter any business at this time. It would be good if they didn't lose money. In fact, horses are definitely a very profitable business. There are many horses on the grassland.

, you can buy a very good prairie horse for a few dozen gold coins at most. The horse just now is definitely an elite among the prairie horses. Such a horse can be bought with only one hundred gold coins, but it needs to be transported to the imperial capital.

The retail price of horses like this can reach 300 gold coins, so it would naturally cost a little more for Li Cong to buy them in bulk.

"Oh, I really didn't see it. It turns out that all of you are in the army. This is no problem. I also did business with people in the army in the past. Look, these are all from the past.

Don't worry about this transaction. I have a fixed pasture on the grassland. They are all pastures allowed by the empire, not those black pastures. No matter how much goods you want, I will have no problem. Not only are the goods the best

Yes, even the price is the lowest. To be honest, I can pull out thousands of such grassland horses right away, and the price is only two hundred and seventy gold coins. It's very cheap." Because I still don't understand these things.

How many people are needed, so they set a price like this. This price is already very good. They bought such horses for about one hundred gold coins. Of course, they may have raised them themselves. It cost about one hundred gold coins to transport them to the imperial capital.

The price of a horse plus three gold coins, 270 gold coins, is already very cheap for retail, but for such a large-scale purchase, this price is just okay.

"Haha, I am the new city lord. I want to form more than 10,000 cavalry, half heavy cavalry and half light cavalry. How many do you think I need? Your price does not seem very fair. I will go elsewhere.

Let's take a look." After Li Cong finished speaking, he was about to go out. Zhu Kui had never experienced anything like this. He also looked at the horses from several other horse dealers. Those horses were not very good at all. If you use them,

If we use horses to form cavalry, the combat effectiveness will definitely be reduced a lot. The horses here are the best. Does this officer want to rely on free wages or something? Thinking about this, Zhu Kui's eyes have changed.

Well, what he wants is to form a powerful cavalry, and then go to the grassland to kill those damn barbarians to avenge his family. He is not just accompanying some adults to earn money. This is the purpose of living. Absolutely

It's not a wasted life.

Zhu Kui didn't understand these things, but Zhu Shan did. When he saw the horse dealer's anxious look, he knew it was the boss's plan. After holding down his cousin who was about to move, he followed the boss out. Sure enough, they hadn't gone out yet.

At that time, the boss stopped them. What a joke, this horse market may not have had such business in the past month. Except for the emperor's personal army, which has a special horse farm, there are basically no other places in the empire.

They all buy and sell war horses themselves. The more than 10,000 cavalrymen, based on the minimum configuration of two horses per person, are more than 20,000 horses. This is no joke. The minimum price is several million gold coins.

If you don't do this, you will be a fool. After you finish this job, you can even retire. Living an honest life with a few beauties and having a few children is no better than being exposed to the wind and sun every day.

, so this deal cannot be lost.

"Bosses, we can still discuss the entire price. Let's do this, boss, you quote a number. As long as I can make a little profit, I will give it to you immediately, and I will also guarantee delivery. As long as it is

It can be done within the empire, how about it?" This delivery is actually a technical job. The people on my side could not guarantee to bring all the horses back in the past. After all, these horses are familiar with their old owners. For them,

The new owner is welcome, but there are many.

"Haha, is this the way to talk about business? I see you only have horses for light cavalry here. How about the horses for heavy cavalry?" Li was never in a hurry to say how much he wanted. He could tell this.

The guy's strength should be good. I won't just build a cavalry in the future, I may also buy one in the future. It's better to find someone who is more complete.

"Haha, sir, we all specialize in one business. I can handle all the light cavalry. The horses used by the heavy cavalry are not used by the nomads in the north. They all use the fertile horses in the west.

Dunma, those horses have stronger load-bearing capacity, but they are also more expensive. But don’t worry, sir, if you entrust me with this job, I will definitely satisfy you. Of course, you only need to pay a small fee.

That's it." This guy is telling the truth. This kind of horse is not produced in their hometown. The Wharton horse is only found in the western part of the empire. Although the horse dealers are enemies, there is also cooperation among them. Naturally, this horse dealer is

They know who to trap. They don't have the guts to deal with the imperial army. If they are traced, it will be a danger of annihilation. I have never heard of quality problems with the army's supplies. Who doesn't want it?

Are you dead?

"That doesn't matter. I have 12,000 cavalry over there, half each of light and heavy cavalry. Light cavalry requires one person and two horses, and heavy cavalry requires one person and three horses. There is also a reserve horse. You can get it here.

Are there eighteen thousand horses like this?" Li Cong said with a smile. This guy was immediately dumbfounded. How come there are still horses in reserve? This is really rich and powerful. It looks like it should be the army of the imperial capital, or maybe

They are His Majesty's personal troops. Generally speaking, they are equipped with two horses. Here, the light cavalry has three horses and the heavy cavalry has four horses. It is indeed not an ordinary person. With 12,000 horses, I can't do it in a year.

It won't be able to sell that much, and counting the reserves, it's only 18,000 horses. What's certain is that after this sale, I may really be able to close the deal.

The guy calculated it. He had three thousand such horses at home. If he bought them on the grassland, they would only cost ninety gold coins at most. The cost of sending them over was negligible. He gritted his teeth and said, "Sir, I'm here."

The horse will cost you 200 gold coins, which is the lowest. If it is lower, my profit will be very little." Zhu Kui also thinks that this price is already very good, but Li Cong has been doing business for many years, and he

But knowing that in order to win this deal, this guy decided that this price was definitely not the final price in his mind, and there was still room for lower prices. Li Cong smiled, and it could be said that he was very dissatisfied with this price.

"Haha, this price is not good. One hundred and fifty gold coins. If it is possible, just set this price. I will pay you a deposit and I will give you the rest when it is delivered. If it is not possible, I will look around." Li

Cong said with a smile. Brothers Zhu Shan and Zhu Kui were also dumbfounded. This gentleman's price was too high. It's not like they had never done purchasing before, but they had never seen such a low price. In their opinion, this

The horse dealer would definitely not agree to the price, and he might lose money.

The horse dealer hesitated for a moment and made a quick calculation in his mind. With 18,000 horses, at a price of 150 gold coins, he still had at least a profit of 50 gold coins per horse. This was also 900,000 gold coins. His total assets on the grassland were only one million.

For about gold coins, this transaction can be regarded as doubling my family wealth. If I do it, and find him a good Wharton horse, I will be able to get kickbacks from both sides. Why not do it, although the profit will be less?

, I used to expect a profit of at least two million gold coins. It seems that the amount is a bit different. I can't retire, but it is still a big step forward from the day when I retire.

"Okay, I, Tuligi, did this business. I, Tuligi, have been in the horse business for such a long time. To be honest, my profit this time is really not much." What he said was true, although it looked like a profit.

A lot, but this is already considered very low in horse trading. Although Li Cong bought a horse for the first time, compared to many people, Li Cong was already an old man.

"Mr. Wharton Horse, you can rest assured. It's definitely the lowest price, and delivery is guaranteed. I wonder what the bottom line is, sir, for purchasing Wharton Horse?" This guy thought of another deal, that was 24,000 horses.

Wharton horses, those things are much better than our own horses, and the price is also much more expensive. A good Wharton horse costs thousands of gold coins. The only heavy cavalry unit equipped entirely with Wharton horses is the one in the imperial capital.

Only a few high-ranking nobles and His Majesty's personal soldiers are like this. The general army cannot afford the equipment. The price alone can scare everyone, let alone those armors and the like.

, but these are not problems at all for Li Cong.

Li Cong is also familiar with Wharton horses. Such horses can be said to be the best horses in the army. He also knows the price of a good Wharton horse. "It is the same Wharton horse used by His Majesty the Emperor's personal army."

Can you get Dunma?" Now that he is not short of money, he wants to build the most powerful cavalry army, so all the requirements are the best. Li Cong finished the other three words.

Everyone looked at Li Cong a little dumbfounded. This man was really rich and wasted money.

"Sir, with a horse like that, you have found me, Tuligi." This guy began to boast about his abilities again, as if he couldn't reflect his value if he didn't say it for a while, "A few people I know of Tuligi

There is such a horse in the city. The retail price of such a horse in the imperial capital is about 1,300 gold coins. The lowest I can do is lower the price by 1,000 gold coins. I don’t have the ability to do that anymore. Wharton horses are relatively rare.

Just like us prairie horses, you can get whatever you want." At this moment, this guy didn't lie. Li Cong thought for a moment, and he knew by looking at Tuliji's eyes that he didn't lie. It seemed like what this guy said

They are all true, there is no flickering in the eyes, no one can deceive me.

This 1,000 gold coins for a horse is really too expensive. In fact, there are many horses that can replace Wharton's horses, which are much cheaper, and some are half price. But what Li Cong wants is the best cavalry unit, so don't use it.

I'm afraid of spending money. This guy is worth 24 million gold coins when he goes out. Damn, including the light cavalry horses, this is nearly 28 million gold coins. If Li Cong hadn't robbed the business of the county prince's mansion, it would be really impossible to get it.

After spending this money, the cavalry always looks very majestic, and spending this money is indeed a very majestic thing.

"This is a gold ticket of five hundred thousand gold coins. This is our deposit. Send all the goods to Kahuan County. Then we can just find the two of them. As long as Wharton is qualified then, he will arrive.

There are still 300,000 gold coins for your labor fee, how about it?" Li Cong took out the gold ticket of 500,000 gold coins and said, this guy took a look, good guy, there are at least several million gold coins in that bag.

, I have met a rich man this time. I usually don’t even know about it, but now I know that a cavalry unit can spend so much money.

Only now did Li understand why this county with five to six million people only had so few cavalry. The cavalry, aside from other horses, was a very expensive thing. No wonder the other two counties couldn't afford it.

As for the cavalry, if these 24 million gold coins are used to form infantry, it will be 6,000 infantry squads, which can support an army of nearly one million. But if it is replaced by heavy cavalry, there will only be one. Of course, there are 6,000 heavy cavalry on the battlefield.

It can also quickly attack tens of thousands of infantry, and they will not suffer any casualties.

"If you two have nothing to do, go to Kahuan County first. See what is available in the county. Make a note of it. Take my letter to Cui Changsheng. He will give it to you.

You have arranged it well." Zhu Shan looked at his commander with some surprise. This guy is obviously a deputy city lord. How can he have the courage to directly ask the city lord for orders? This guy must be a little bolder. You have to know a county.

There is a city lord and two deputy city lords here. These deputy city lords can be replaced by the city lord at any time, so they are quite courageous.

There must be troops in Kahuan County, but Li Cong has also seen them. They should be able to deal with ordinary thieves, but it is probably not easy to go to the battlefield to deal with the enemy, and Long Yun

That guy has been squandering military pay in the past few years. He is probably not full of troops. Moreover, they have not bought any war horses for several years. The remaining war horses are probably used to pull carts for wealthy businessmen.

The problem is, forget it if you want to go to the battlefield. He spent tens of millions of gold coins in a short time. Li Cong feels so comfortable. It turns out that spending money can feel so good. When he returns to Kahuan County,

Then you can have a cavalry unit.

He spends a lot of money here, and Yitiandang can make money easily by relying on this special medicine. 100 of the first batch were given to His Majesty the Emperor. The second batch of Yitiandang originally wanted to be auctioned.

But then I thought about it and decided not to make a fuss at this time, and it was better to keep a low profile, so I sold it for 800,000 gold coins each, and received another 80 million gold coins.

He sold 130 million gold coins before and after he got up. The cost was 100,000 gold coins, which was 20 million. The rest was their share, 55 million gold coins per person. Li Cong had already collected 50 million gold coins.

Tens of millions of gold coins, and there are still 25 million gold coins for Li Cong. Her Royal Highness the Princess has prepared them all for Li Cong, and now Her Royal Highness the Princess has begun to reserve this thing.

The fastest spreading thing in the imperial capital is the news. Now everyone in the entire imperial capital knows that there is a special medicine in Yitian. The genius emperor Sun Longyu is already dying. His majesty is extremely sad. In the end, it is not because of this.

The medicine saved the life, and the most important thing about this medicine is that it can prevent epidemics. For ordinary people, 800,000 gold coins are hard to count, but for the nobles in the imperial capital, these 800,000 gold coins can

Buying one's own life, who wouldn't do such a thing? Is there something wrong with my brain? There are only 100 pills in Yitian. After they were sold out, I started pre-ordering. Now more than 2,000 nobles have come to hand over their orders.

The deposit of 100,000 gold coins alone is 200 million gold coins, and only a small number of nobles have received the news. More nobles have not come yet. Her Royal Highness the Princess estimates that there will be at least tens of thousands of them in the end.

Even if more nobles come to buy medicine, they will be the rich businessmen. Those rich businessmen have a lot of money. Nobles from all over the country will probably come to the imperial capital after getting the news.

"What's going on? Aren't there only 3,000 nobles ordering now? Why do they want more than 10,000 medicines?" The princess looked at the list and when she asked, she immediately scolded herself for being a bit stupid. She even thought about this question.

But come on, this must be more than one reserved by a nobleman. Just like the prince of a royal palace, with more than a dozen sons and dozens of grandsons, can it be just his own? After all, a prince's palace has to have one.
