"The caravan that was supposed to arrive in Yanmen County ten days ago actually arrived in Yanmen County ten days later, and the owner of the caravan turned into a woman. You think, under such circumstances, what can I do?
Don't you want to check the details of this caravan?" Sima Shang said.
"So?" Zi Nu asked with an expression on her face.
"It doesn't matter if I check it. I really found something interesting after the first check."
Sima Shang looked in amazement and said in wonder, "Madam Ghost is really a great and powerful person. When she was intercepted and killed by barbarians, she didn't want to escape, but instead captured the Black Wind Village in Hengshan Mountain.
Then he used vertical and horizontal techniques to unite several mountain strongholds, captured the Hu tribe in one fell swoop, and took all the goods robbed by the Hu tribe into his own hands."
"Lord Sima has been making things difficult for me in transactions these days, just to take advantage of this time to check my details?" Zi Nu asked, facing Sima Shang who suddenly changed his face, Zi Nu still
Can hold up.
She knew very well that Sima Shang had his own purpose after all he had said, and as long as Sima Shang still had other intentions, there would be room for change.
But after all, you still can't underestimate the people of the world. The people in the northern border of Zhao Kingdom are more difficult to deal with than you thought. Zi Nu said to herself in her heart, she has already been very energetic.
"Not bad." Sima Shang affirmed.
"So, Master Sima did so much to lower the price, right?" Zi Nu asked.
"Why lower the price instead of confiscating your goods as stolen goods?" Sima Shang threatened.
"Huh." Zi Nu took a long breath and said with a look of helplessness on her face: "Now I understand a little bit why that guy is so keen on power. Sure enough, in front of power, the so-called wisdom and money will appear so...
So powerless."
"Sir Ma, you can talk to me here, instead of pushing me into prison as a bandit. It seems that you don't want to label my goods as stolen goods. In this way, everything can still be discussed." Zi Nu continued.
.
"As expected of the Ghost Lady who was able to accomplish such a great thing in Hengshan Mountain, her mind is worthy of admiration. Yes, those goods already belong to you if they are snatched back from the hands of your barbarians, but the cost mentioned by the Ghost Lady before
We still need to discuss the problem again," Sima Shang said.
After Taiyuan County was occupied by the Qin State, the northern border of Zhao State almost became an enclave of Zhao State. However, there was a shortage of materials here, and many things needed to be transported by caravans.
At this time, Sima Shang could certainly confiscate Zi Nu's goods as stolen goods, but in the eyes of outsiders, it would make the caravans of the six countries lose trust in the northern border of Zhao. The value of this trust is definitely not in Zi Nu's hands.
The goods are comparable.
"Less than 20% of this cargo belongs to me, so for the problem Master Sima mentioned, I can only quote 10,000 gold." Zinu bit her silver teeth and said.
When Zi Nu was negotiating with Yang Ming, the price was not at this price. But as the saying goes, if you can't bear the child, you can't trap the wolf. Sima Shang found out all the details, and Zi Nu could only bleed it ruthlessly.
"Ten thousand gold?" Sima Shang said in surprise. The pig iron costing only forty thousand gold was quoted by Zi Nu at ten thousand gold? This was obviously beyond his expectation. You know, what he did was just thinking.
It only costs 30,000 gold to buy the pig iron in Zi Nu's hands.
As Zi Nu said, only 20% of it belongs to her, so Zi Nu's offer of 10,000 gold means that she needs to pay for it herself. For Zi Nu, such a transaction is really a huge loss.
"I haven't finished speaking yet. In addition to ten thousand gold, I also need a favor from Lord Sima." Zi Nu said.
"Favor? Is Sima Shang's favor so valuable?" Sima Shang asked unexpectedly, "What kind of favor is Mrs. Ghost talking about?"
"I want to buy a batch of war horses from Yanmen County." Zi Nu said her purpose.
"War horses? Those are embargoed items." Sima Shang said solemnly.
The importance of war horses to the State of Zhao is self-evident. The cavalry of the State of Zhao dominates the world. Even the State of Qin has to avoid the sharpness of the cavalry of the State of Zhao on the cavalry. One of the most powerful factors is the war horses.
The restrictions on the sale of war horses are extremely strict.
"It is precisely because of the embargo that it is more valuable." Zi Nu said solemnly.
"I can no longer decide this matter." Sima Shang said seriously.
"Then who can make the decision?" Zi Nu asked.
"Lord Sheriff."
"Then let the governor make the decision." Zi Nu said calmly.
Under the leadership of Sima Shang, Zi Nu came to the county governor's mansion. The moment she arrived in front of the hall of the county governor's mansion, Yang Ming's figure fell into her eyes.
Why is this guy here? Didn't he take Xue Nu to find Xue Nu's relatives? Li Mu must be a relative of Xue Nu, right? The moment Zi Nu saw Yang Ming, she thought with surprise and confusion.
Yang Ming was also surprised when he saw Zi Nu.
"Wait a moment, you two. I have official business here and need to leave for a while." After Sima Shang explained his purpose, Li Mu stood up and said to Master Cang and Yang Ming.
"I'm free, you can do whatever you want." Master Cang waved his hand.
"Your Majesty, the Sheriff's business is more important," Yang Ming said.
Li Mu, who came outside the hall, looked at Zi Nu in front of him and asked: "Do you want to buy war horses, and buy a batch of them?"
"Yes." Zi Nu responded.
"Although Yanmen County has a lot of war horses, it is not without shortage of war horses. The governor's office can pay 30,000 gold for that batch of pig iron. You can change your terms." Li Mu said without hesitation.
"Lord Sheriff, I know the importance of war horses to Yanmen County, and I also know that Yanmen County currently does not have enough war horses, but this does not mean that the situation will still be the same in a few months." Zi Nu Qiao smiled sweetly.
road.
"What do you mean by that?" Li Mu's expression showed more scrutiny.
Success or failure depends on this incident. Yang Ming, I hope you can be more reliable. If you cheat me, I swear, I will spend my whole life to avenge you. Zi Nu felt cruel in her heart, but in
But he still said one word in that gentle and moving voice: "Wolf Clan"
"You know a lot." Li Mu said expressionlessly, while Sima Shang, who was standing beside him, could not hide his surprise.
"I'm just a businessman. I don't know much about military affairs. Everything is just a matter of chance."
Zi Nu said as she lifted up a strand of her purple hair on her temples and showed a bright smile, "When I joined forces with the Hengshan bandits to attack the Hu tribe, I happened to meet a person. That person's identity is very interesting."
"Who?" Li Mu hadn't been born yet, and Sima Shang couldn't help but ask.
"That man is from the wolf clan, and he has a high status in the wolf clan, because he has a father who has a high status in the wolf clan." Zi Nu said slowly, "Well, by the way, that man's name is
Touman, his father is the great danyu of the wolf clan."
