poor family young gentleman

"What are you looking at every night?"

Feng Jiye stopped in front of a black horse that was sick and crouched on the ground, with a black body and a drop-shaped white hair on its forehead. Yin Huanyang, who had got rid of the tigers and the others, leaned over curiously: "Is it sick? Really?" Pitiful."

Yin Huanyang squatted down and reached out to stroke the horse's head while talking. The black horse seemed to be very spiritual, and its sluggish eyes opened lazily, and then closed after a casual glance, without any intention of struggling.

"Brother Yang, is it going to die?"

"Yeah, it's the most lethargic looking one in the whole stable."

"A horse is too expensive. It would be a pity if it really died."

Huzi and the others who approached were chirping, no one noticed except Feng Jiye, when they said it was dying, Heima raised his eyes, his dark eyes seemed to be filled with displeasure.

This is interesting!

The corner of his lips hooked, Feng Jiye squatted down next to Yin Huanyang, and gently stroked its head with his thin white hand: "What's wrong with you?"

"Hiss..."

A surprising thing happened, as if they understood what he said, the black horse raised its head and neighed twice at him. People who saw this scene, including the shopkeeper Zeng, were all surprised, but they didn't think Too many, I just feel that the husband and wife seem to be very popular with these horses, and they must have dealt with horses a lot in the past.

[The labor and capital are a little exhausted, not dying! 】

To others' ears, the black horse was just neighing, but to Feng Jiye's ears, its neighing directly turned into accusations.

"Push!"

Knowing the reason, Feng Jiye not only didn't help it clean up, but also added insult to injury, he burst out laughing.

"What are you laughing at every night?"

Turning his head, Yin Huanyang blinked his eyes and looked at him suspiciously, Feng Jiyexu clenched his fists and covered his mouth to hold back his smile: "No, I just think this horse is cute, why don't we buy it?"

"Brother Ye, are you crazy?"

"Well, I listen to every night."

The unbelievable exclamation of Huzi and Yin Huanyang sounded almost at the same time as Yin Huanyang's unreasonable approval, and shopkeeper Zeng also stepped forward to persuade: "Feng Shaojun, it's not that I don't want to do your business, this horse seems to be very sick. , do you think you should choose another horse?"

Xingyuan trading company can become the largest insurance company in Tongyang County, and its reputation and reputation are very good. They know that it is a horse that is dying of illness, and they can't sell it to customers against their conscience, especially if he still welcomes customers It was introduced by shopkeeper Ju Yang.

"It's okay, it seems to be related to us."

Pulling Yin Huanyang to stand up, Feng Jiye turned to Yin Huanyang without waiting for Shopkeeper Zeng's response, straightened his clothes and said, "This horse can't pull the carriage for now, you can pick another healthy horse."

"Ah."

Yin Huanyang liked to hear these words, so he turned around and picked them one by one. After regaining his senses, Chuntao pointed to the horse on the ground and said, "Brother Ye, it is going to die, isn't it a waste of money for you to buy it?"

Although the money is his and how he wants to spend it is his business, but as a friend, she really feels sorry for him, after all, they still owe Wan Jiang's 100 taels of silver, don't they?And the price of a horse is probably not cheap.

"If you keep it here, maybe it will really die, but if it follows me, it will not be so easy to die."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Seeing what he said was paradoxical, not only Chuntao, everyone present was stupefied, Feng Jiye covered his mouth and chuckled twice, without explaining in detail.

"Yeye, I've chosen it, so I'll choose it."

At the same time, there was a shout, and Yin Huanyang stood in front of the white horse he touched first and waved vigorously at him. Feng Jiye glanced past the crowd, without any doubt, and turned his head to the shopkeeper Zeng and said : "Just these two horses, how much is one?"

"This…"

Rarely, shopkeeper Zeng hesitated, and looked thoughtfully at the black horse. According to his years of experience in reselling livestock, that horse has clearly collapsed. approved it?He didn't think that he really had too much money to burn, he should be sure that he could cure it, right?

"Forget it, since you are destined for it, I'll sell it to you at a discount."

Thinking of this, shopkeeper Zeng made a gesture of invitation, led him out of the stable, and sat down at the nearby stone table outside: "The Ming Xia Kingdom has been in constant war these years, the government has extremely strict control over horses, and the purchase price is It has risen again and again, and some places even restrict the poor enough to buy it. It is extremely difficult for us to get these horses back, so their prices are really high, at least 50 taels of silver per horse, but because of the condition of the black horse It’s really not good, I’ll charge you 80 taels of silver for two horses, what do you think?”

80 taels? !

Huzi and the others stared at each other immediately, this is enough for the expenses of ordinary farmers in the countryside for several years.

"it is good."

Seeing that he nodded without even thinking about it, Hu Zi and the others stared again, their eyeballs almost fell to the ground, you should think about it, that's a whole 80 taels of silver, not [-] copper coins, okay?

Shopkeeper Zeng, who also didn't expect him to be so straightforward, couldn't help being startled again, and then smiled helplessly: "Feng Shaojun, if it wasn't for sure that the horse was really sick and collapsed, I couldn't help but doubt it. Is it a good horse for thousands of miles?"

After working in Xingyuan trading company for more than ten years, it was the first time he saw such a cheerful customer.

"Maybe it's true."

The corners of the lips outlined a gorgeous arc, and Feng Jiye smiled meaningfully.

"Feng Shaojun was joking."

He didn't take what he said seriously at all, and the shopkeeper Zeng turned his face back: "Feng Shaojun, horses and carriages are sold separately, and carriages are divided into carts and bags. Which do you think you want?"

"Bag."

The cart used for pulling goods can be made by myself, there is no need to buy it at all. In terms of comfort, it must be a box bag, and it can also pull goods, but the loading capacity is not as large as that of the cart.

"Okay, the material of the box bag determines the price, Feng Shaojun..."

"Is there any elm one?"

Before he finished speaking, Feng Jiye asked directly, elm is not a good wood, but it is hard and not easy to crack, it is most suitable for his current situation.

"Yes, it seems that Feng Shaojun is also an expert."

Shopkeeper Zeng couldn’t help giving a thumbs up. Generally, people with a little money will choose expensive ones, but expensive ones are not necessarily good. You have to choose according to your actual situation. For example, they live in Wanjia Village. Wood is obviously more practical than expensive nanmu.

"Experts can't talk about it, they just know a little bit."

Waving his hand, Feng Jiye was very modest, and shopkeeper Zeng didn't continue to compliment him: "The carriage made of elm is ten taels of silver a car. If you need to equip it with cushions or something, you have to pay extra."

"No need, just two carriages."

As he said that, Feng Jiye took out another one hundred taels of silver bill and handed it over. The Huzi and the others who were watching were already stunned by his inhumane generosity. so much money.

"Feng Shaojun, wait a moment, I'll go and open the contract for you, and by the way, let someone help you take the horses to the carriage."

After receiving the bank note, shopkeeper Zeng stood up while talking, and after he left, Feng Jiye went to the stable again, knelt down and took out a medicine and put it to its mouth: "Eat it and you will be able to stand up."

"Fizz!"

Called him twice weakly, the black horse rolled his tongue, and the pill disappeared instantly.

"How does it feel?"

That pill was a special medicine that he specially exchanged in the system mall, and it was designed to treat abdominal pain and diarrhea.

"Hiss..."

Much more comfortable, you are my future master?

Not long after taking the medicine, it felt its rambunctious stomach calm down, and then the black horse raised its eyes to seriously look at its future master, a master who could communicate with it without barriers, barely worthy of making him surrender.

"Well, have something to eat, we still have twenty miles to go."

Looking left and right, there was no one around except Huanyang for the time being, Feng Jiye took out a large bag of horse feed and tore it open, since it was already his property, he would not treat it badly.

"Hmm... Where did the ingredients come from? It tastes really good."

Smelling the unfamiliar scent, Heima stretched out his tongue and tentatively rolled a little granular material into his mouth. After tasting the taste, he immediately gobbled it up.

"It's good to have something to eat, why ask so much?"

Is this still a talkative horse? !

Feng Jiye rolled his eyes speechlessly. The black horse who ate good food didn't care at all. The bag of horse food was soon reduced by more than half. disappeared without a trace.

"Yeye, someone is here."

Yin Huanyang, who had noticed them for a long time, moved his ears, walked over and squatted down next to Feng Jiye, Yeye was doing tricks again, he couldn't let others know, otherwise many people would come to snatch Yeye from him.

"Ah."

Throwing him a complimenting look, Feng Jiye put away the rest of the horse feed. The black horse hadn't eaten enough, so he raised his head and neighed dissatisfiedly. Pretend to be weak again later, and save me some money."

He is not short of the 20 taels of silver, but who wouldn't want to save some if he could?He usually likes to give up the extremely eye-catching title of taking advantage of it to others.

"Hiss..."

The black horse neighed twice depressedly, and the moment the clerk of Xingyuan Trading entered the stable, he suddenly lay down on the ground again. Give it a best actor award.

"Lang Jun, Shao Jun, we are going to take it out to the carriage, please let it go first."

The two guys said politely and respectfully.

"Ah."

Nodding his head, Feng Jiye pulled Yin Huanyang out of the stable. After passing the two of them to make sure no one would see them, the husband and wife looked at each other and smiled like a successful cat.

"Feng Shaojun, this is the deed. Please keep it as a thank you. We also gave you two sets of saddles and whips as a gift. They are worthless things. I hope you don't dislike them."

As soon as the two of them walked out of the stable, shopkeeper Zeng came towards him holding the deed, Feng Jiye put away the deed and said with a polite smile: "Treasurer Zeng is polite, it's too late for me to thank you, how could you despise it?"

"Someone will pull the carriage to the front and wait for it later, Feng Shaojun, please follow me to the front and wait."

"Please."

After greeting each other, under the leadership of shopkeeper Zeng, the group returned to the shop in front of them. After waiting for less than a stick of incense, two carriages that had obviously been specially combed were pulled to the door of the shop. The dark horse's acting skills It's really not covered, even if it barely stands, its four legs are trembling visible to the naked eye, and no one can tell that it has regained its vitality.

"Wanqing, where do you leave the ox cart and go back with us in the carriage, or drive the ox cart back alone?"

Let Huzi and the others sit in the white carriage, Feng Jiye looked up at Wan Qing, logically he said that he paid him to hire him, and it would be fine to just send him away, but whatever he did in the morning could be regarded as a solution to his urgent need, Feng Jiye is not someone who crosses rivers and destroys bridges.

"I...I'd better drive the ox cart back by myself."

Longing to look at the tall carriage, Wan Qing chose the bullock cart in the end, not because he was afraid that Feng Jiye would not dare to ride in the same carriage with him, but because the bullock cart was not given to him by Master Lang, but it was temporarily left at his home , if he loses it, he can't explain it to Master Lang.

"Well, that's fine."

Nodding his head, Feng Jiye took out a piece of two taels of silver and handed it to him: "I don't feel relieved when the child is at home, so you can help me buy fifty catties of white rice, fifty catties of white flour, and thirty catties of pork when I hurry back home. Look at buying some vegetables that can be used, and the rest will be your wages."

After the start of work tomorrow, these are urgently needed.

"That's... okay, thank you Brother Ye."

Where is that little thing worth two taels of silver?Wan Qing reflexively refused, and then recalled the situation in the morning, so he accepted it boldly.

"Ah."

Feng Jiye nodded slightly, turned around and clasped his fists at Shopkeeper Zeng again: "Tomorrow we have to have Shopkeeper Lao Zeng."

"You're welcome, sir, young master, go slowly!"

Taking everything before into his eyes, Shopkeeper Zeng’s gaze deepened a bit. If he guessed correctly, those rice, noodles and meat were prepared for the start of work tomorrow. White rice and noodles, as well as pork, were given to the workers, no matter how rich they were. It's impossible for the landlord's family to be so generous, Feng Shaojun, I'm afraid it's not something in the pool!

Without paying attention to the change in shopkeeper Zeng's expression, Feng Jiye climbed into the carriage with Yin Huanyang's support. The couple did not enter the carriage, but sat outside. The three of them obviously don't know how to drive, so this task fell to the ground. When he landed on Yin Huanyang's body, he turned his head and smiled brightly at his daughter-in-law. He held the rein with one hand and waved the whip with the other. The painful white horse immediately spread its four hooves, and the black horse tied behind followed inertially. The two carriages It quickly disappeared around the corner of the street.
