"Hey, we are arriving at Yanmen soon. Are you really sure that Lu Bu will lower the price of the war horse by half?" Cao Ren asked uncertainly to the sick man in front of him.
I met this sick man some time ago in Hanoi County. His name was Xi Zhicai. At that time, he stopped me and said that he knew Xun Zhongling. It was Xun Zhongling who wrote to him, so he was waiting for me here.
Cao Ren definitely didn't believe Xi Zhicai's lies. Xun Yu didn't tell him that someone was waiting for him before he set off. He might just be a charlatan!
"It's not that difficult."
"Ahem!" Xi Zhicai replied with a dry cough while lying on a cart, then put his arms under his head, crossed his legs, looked at the sky with a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth, looking bohemian.
appearance.
"Okay, if you can ask Lu Bu to reduce the price of the war horse by half, I will naturally ask my brother for credit when you get back." This Xi Zhicai said that he could ask Lu Bu to reduce the price of the war horse by half. Lu Bu was so greedy that he
I have seen it through Immortal's video before, and it is absolutely impossible to ask Lu Bu to lower the price of the war horse.
"Don't worry, leave it to me." Xi Zhi waved his hand nonchalantly, then continued to hold the dog's tail grass in his mouth, humming a little tune.
Cao Ren glanced at Xi Zhicai who was lying on the cart and said to himself: "We'll find out later whether this person is really talented!"
Cao Ren led dozens of cavalry forward before he saw Zhang Liao leading troops in front to meet him.
The day before, Cao Ren sent someone to send a greeting card to Lu Bu and told him the purpose of his trip, so as to avoid any misunderstanding.
"The person coming is Cao Zixiao from Cao!" Zhang Liao stopped his horse ten feet away from Cao Ren and shouted to Cao Ren.
"Yes, I am Cao Ren. I came here specifically to discuss the war horse with General Lu on my brother's order!" Cao Ren responded, reining in the war horse under his crotch.
"General Cao, please come with me. My general has prepared a banquet to welcome General Cao!" After saying this, Zhang Liao turned around and led Cao Ren in front.
On the other side, Lu Bu had prepared a banquet. All his subordinates were summoned by Lu Bu and sat on both sides of the banquet. Only the guest seat was left open.
Lu Bu did this not to show off to Cao Ren. They had no enmity and there was no need for this to happen.
The reason why he did this was firstly to show that he valued Cao Ren's visit this time, and secondly because it would make the atmosphere easier when there were many people and wine, and it would be easier to do things at the wine table!
Not long after, Zhang Liao brought Cao Ren and his party to Lu Bu's mansion.
"Cao Ren has met all of you heroes. This visit is too disturbing!" After seeing Lu Bu, Cao Ren bowed his hands to Lu Bu and all his subordinates and saluted.
"Hahaha, don't disturb me. Let's talk inside, Zao Zixiao. I have prepared a banquet and have been waiting for a long time." Lu Bu laughed loudly and pulled Cao Ren into the house. Finally, a man came to buy his war horse. He
How can I dislike it? Your interruptions are getting better and better!
Lu Bu led Cao Ren into the banquet, and Xi Zhicai followed behind Cao Ren.
After three rounds of drinking, Lu Bu asked Diao Chan to come out to sing and dance for the soldiers.
"I saw Madam-in-law's beauty through the immortal before, and today she is truly worthy of her reputation. All the people in the world have been taken over by General Lu, hahaha." Cao Ren drank a glass of wine and laughed loudly, praising Lu Bu.
Fang Tian Hua Ji, Red Rabbit Horse, Diao Chan, which one is not the best in the world? This Lu Bu is really lucky!
"Hey, you're lucky~" Lu Bu said modestly.
"I wonder how many war horses are needed for Zi Xiao to come this time!" Lu Bu finally brought the topic to today's topic.
I saw Cao Ren put down the wine glass in his hand and raised a finger with his right hand.
"One thousand?" Lu Bu guessed, frowning at the same time. One thousand is too little!
Cao Ren shook his head and said slowly: "General Lu, if I want ten thousand horses, can the price be cheaper?"
"Ten thousand horses!"
"Seriously!" Lu Bu stood up excitedly and asked Cao Ren again.
If Cao Ren really wants 10,000 war horses, he can solve the serious overflow problem of his own war horses at once. At the same time, 10,000 war horses can be exchanged for 100,000 stones of food, which is enough for them not to worry about food for a long time!
"As long as General Lu offers a better price, I will make the decision for my brother on these 10,000 war horses!" Cao Ren proudly made the decision for Cao Cao.
Xi Zhicai on the side covered his face with his hands. Is there anyone who bargains like you? When asking others to bid, shouldn't you propose a very low price and let the other party raise it slowly? Keep mentioning a price that both parties are satisfied with.
"If Zixiao can really make the decision to order 10,000 war horses, I am willing to give Zixiao two more benefits for each warhorse, eight stones for each warhorse!" Lu Bu thought for a moment and replied with two fingers, eight stones for each warhorse.
You can make a lot of money for yourself.
Just when Cao Ren was about to clap his hands in agreement, Xi Zhi stopped Cao Ren in time.
"General Lu, can you let us take a look at the horses before we make a decision?"
Lu Bu just watched helplessly as the duck he was about to get flew away. He looked at Xi Zhicai in confusion and asked, "Zixiao, who is this?"
"Ah oh oh oh, this is Xi Zhicai, a counselor under my brother's account." After being interrupted by Xi Zhicai, Cao Ren realized that he had not even looked at his own horse.
I was really too careless in setting the price. What if Lu Bu broke his promise again?
"Oh? Since sir, you want to see the war horse first, please come with me!" Lu Bu didn't take Xi Zhicai seriously. He had confidence in his war horse, and no one would say yes to it after seeing it.
Cao Ren and Xi Zhicai followed Lu Bu to the racecourse.
On the way, Cao Ren quietly asked Xi Zhicai again: "Are you really sure that Lu Bu can lower the price of the war horse by half?"
Xi Zhicai gave Cao Ren a roll of his eyes, then drove his horse and gave Cao Ren a slap on the back of the head.
The crowd rode the horses and arrived at Lu Bu's horse farm with Lu Bu without driving for too long.
"You two, this is my horse farm, Lu Bu. Every horse here is a fine BMW!" Lu Bu proudly introduced his horse farm to Cao Ren and Xi Zhicai.
Cao Ren swallowed. Hundreds of stables stood in front of him, giving people a strong visual impact and showing the large number of horses.
"Come on, I'll show you!" Lu Bu took Cao Ren and Xi Zhicai to visit the racecourse very confidently. Now that his reputation has been ruined, if he wants to sell the horses, he must reassure them that his horses are indeed as good as
It's as good as I said.
Cao Ren and Xi Zhicai followed Lu Bu. Indeed, as Lu Bu said, every horse is a fine horse.
"Is this war horse worth eight stones each?" Lu Bu asked Cao Ren and Xi Zhicai after showing them around.
"What General Lu said is indeed true. This war horse is indeed worth the price, but..." Xi Zhicai said this and hesitated before continuing.
"Nothing, sir, I just said it doesn't matter." Lu Bu asked Xi Zhicai to continue. The twist is that it's a common bargaining method. As long as they want 10,000 war horses, and the price is within their acceptable range, they can earn what they have.
!
"Okay, General Lu's war horses are indeed fine horses. If you exchange them for ordinary grain, a war horse with eight stones of grain is definitely worth the money, but my master uses fairy grain... so the price is high
...." Xi Zhicai spoke again and looked at Lu Bu halfway through to continue.
"What this gentleman said makes sense. Extraordinary things naturally have to be paid for at an extraordinary price. Please tell me a price. As long as it suits me, Mr. Lu, I will make this deal with you." Lu Bu thought for a moment and felt what Xi Zhicai was saying.
It is true that if ordinary grains are used, even ten dan is not an exaggeration, but Cao Cao does not use ordinary grains, so lowering the price is not unacceptable.
"Four stones!" Xi Zhicai spit out a price that even Cao Ren had not expected.
He thought Xi Zhicai would say five stones, but he didn't expect Xi Zhicai to directly say a lower price!
"Sir... can you please add some more? Four stones is indeed too low." Lu Bu hesitated a little. Four stones was already far below his budget.
Seeing Lu Bu's hesitation, Xi Zhicai knew he was safe and continued to give Lu Bu strong medicine: "General Lu, you think one stone of immortal food cannot be exchanged for two stones of ordinary food?"
Hearing Xi Zhicai's words, Lu Bu suddenly understood, yes, that's fairy food. It's not too much to exchange one stone for three stones. In this way, he has made money. This gentleman is really a good man!
"Okay, just follow what the teacher said, four stones is enough!" Lu Bu agreed happily!
Cao Ren on the side was stunned. How could he simply lower the price to four stones?
Seeing that Lu Bu agreed with Xi Zhicai, he shook his head helplessly. On the surface, Lu Bu made a profit, but in this era of famine, who would exchange three stones of grain for one stone?
He officially took advantage of Lu Bu's greed to reach this deal.
What's more, the fairy food is not yet mature, so if you want it, you have to wait until the autumn harvest!
"Please also ask General Lu to personally escort the war horses to Yanzhou for us." Xi Zhicai continued to say to Lu Bu. They came with dozens of horses this time. There was no way to transport tens of thousands of war horses back to Yanzhou. If Lu Bu could
The best escort in the world couldn't be better.
"Of course, I will personally lead the troops to escort these tens of thousands of horses to Yanzhou for you!" Lu Bu, who thought he had taken a big advantage, agreed without thinking.
"Thank you so much, General Lu!" Xi Zhicai thanked Lu Bu. With Lu Bu personally escorting the horses, they should reach Yanzhou safely.
"By the way, sir, Bu also has a deal he wants to make with sir!" At this moment, Lu Bu suddenly thought of a deal that could still make money.
"Oh? What's the business?" Xi Zhicai asked Lu Bu curiously. Lu Bu's reaction exceeded his budget.
"This business!" Lu Bu took out a short stick from his waist.
Xi Zhicai and Cao Ren frowned, not understanding what Lu Bu wanted to do.
Lu Bu shook his arm hard, and the short stick transformed into a square-shaped halberd!
