Kou Jiming looked at these strong horses and couldn't help but patted the horses' butts excitedly.

A horse kicked in the back in annoyance, but he dodged it with nimble hands and feet.

Ji Changying's eyebrows jumped.

"If there is no problem, just pay the money and deliver the goods quickly, and take the horse away."

These horses, cattle and sheep are raised in the village and consume a lot of feed every day.

In the past two days, Ji Fengshou had nothing to do, so he organized Ji's people to go up the mountain to cut some hay and bring them back, but there was not enough to eat.

I went to a nearby village to buy some chestnut stalks and came back. At night, Ji Changying secretly fed the cattle, sheep and horses, so that they didn't lose weight twice due to hunger.

When he mentioned money, the rough expression on Kou Jiming's face suddenly faded and he became extremely shrewd: "Normal people are not allowed to raise horses, but your family's situation is special. We turned a blind eye to raising those two horses, but these You must give all your horses to our border troops."

Ji Changying nodded: "I know! As long as you can afford it, you can take it all."

Kou Jiming chuckled, his white teeth standing out on his tanned face: "Seeing as we are all old acquaintances, how much would you say for one?"

"Yes, Miss Ji, our captain specifically told his subordinates to allocate you to a place like Gan County, which is vast, sparsely populated and has many fields!"

The two deputies also looked at Ji Changying laughingly, with a hint of vague reminder in their tone.

Let her not be ungrateful.

Ji Changying simply folded her arms: "The land is so vast and the people are so sparsely populated? Barbarians come to attack this place every three days, even if they are not sparse! Not even two months after arriving here, our Ji family was killed by barbarians here." One! The funeral has just been completed."

Speaking of this incident, most of the joy of Kou Jiming and the three deputies was washed away.

Kou Jiming's eyes were solemn: "At the border, these situations are inevitable. Not only in Gan County, but also in other places. Liangzhou was attacked the most severely. Prince Ping and Prince Ping all went to battle in person to calm the situation."

"As soon as everyone celebrates the New Year, we are afraid that we will start a war."

The two deputies looked calm and seemed to have been mentally prepared for this.

War requires the shedding of blood, and their destination is also on the battlefield.

Ji Changying was silent for a moment: "One horse, thirty taels."

Because the price of war horses remains high.

At present, the price of horses in general condition is around 30 taels. What they sell in Tongzhou are all war horses from Wuheshan private soldiers. A horse is sold for 40 taels, and the price is still lowered by the horse and carriage dealer.

The price of these horses outside the customs will only be higher, not lower, but after listening to their words, Ji Changying decided to give them the price of ordinary horses.

Kou Jiming had already made a decision. No matter what price Ji Changying offered, he would find a way to keep the price at forty taels because Liangzhou's finances were really tight.

As a result, he didn't say anything, and the other party actually took the initiative to sell him the inferior horse at the price!

After doing this, he hesitated a little: "You... do you know the horse market?"

"Of course I know, just tell me if you want it or not." Ji Changying was a little impatient. Why is this still going on?

"Yes, yes! Of course!"

The two deputies eagerly agreed.

Decisively, he reached out and took out a purse from his waist, counted the money from it, took out three hundred and sixty taels of silver and handed it to Ji Changying.

"Your Majesty told me before I came here that you have twelve horses in total. Here are three hundred and sixty taels of silver. Take a look."

Ji Changying glanced briefly and put the banknote in her arms.

"Thank you, Master, for taking their horses with you!"

Ji Changying turned around and removed the threshold, went to the village to find Ji Fengshou and asked him to bring out all the horses.

Knowing that someone had finally taken over the things in his hands, Ji Fengshou was so happy that he asked people to bring all the horses out. On the way, he secretly asked her: "How much did you sell?"

"Three hundred and sixty taels."

Ji Fengshou went through it in his mind and stopped.

"Isn't it right? You and Yueniang split twelve horses. How come each horse only sells for thirty taels? Have you been deceived?"

Ji Fengshou looked angry.

Hurrah! She actually took advantage of him not being at home to deceive his children, which is very despicable!

"I know it's cheap, but this is a war horse, and it's sold to the border troops! Dad, our family is here, and we can only do well if the border is in good condition."

Ji Changying looked at Ji Fengshou seriously.

It's a good thing to like making money, but she doesn't want her father to become a pure businessman who only cares about profit.

Ji Fengshou looked at his daughter's serious expression and was a little unhappy: "What you said made your father seem to have no idea. I didn't say anything. Isn't this because I feel sorry for the money we lost!"

A horse is at least ten taels short of silver, which is one hundred and twenty taels.

Why don't you allow him to feel distressed?

Ji Changying grinned: "Of course my father is a manly man! Don't worry, isn't it just money? I will make a lot of money for you in the future! You won't be able to spend all the money, just use the banknotes to wipe your butt. .”

Ji Fengshou laughed angrily at these words: "What a precious butt I have? I wiped it with silver notes, why didn't you tell me to use gold to clean the toilet!"

However, after being interrupted like this, the expression on his face did improve a lot, and he at least put on a smile when he saw Kou Jiming.

"Hey! Isn't this our Lord Commander? I didn't expect that you would bother to come here in person! Alas! I was not at home just now, but I didn't expect that my daughter has negotiated the price for you!"

Kou Jiming and the other two people felt nervous. What does this mean? Want to regret it?

"But I don't have any other strong points, just keeping my word! My daughter has said that a person must be upright. Selling it to your border army will benefit our entire border. In my heart, I am willing to do it!"

"Come on, come on, look at this horse I raised, look at its color..."

Ji Fengshou took Kou Jiming and talked endlessly about his experience in raising horses. He also told them how difficult it was for the frontier troops and how he was willing to sell these horses to them at low prices.

These words spoke to the hearts of Kou Jiming and the other three, and within a short time they were calling me brother, brother, brother.

In the end, the ten cows and forty sheep were sold for a total of 430 taels of silver. Kou Jiming and the other three simply gave them a full sum of 450 taels.

Ji Fengshou felt better when he saw them like this.

The money can be less, but the affection must be remembered, right?

He is just a common man, and he just wants his family to live a better life. Naturally, every five points of friendship will be exaggerated into ten points, and people will mark him down severely. Isn't this the basis of friendship?

Seeing that after selling the Ji family for so much money, they could still keep two cows and four sheep for the New Year, the people in Xiaotian Village were extremely greedy.

Ai Ai walked up to Ji Changying, licked her smiling face and asked: "Miss Ji, that is... people like us, can we also go and grab it?"
