Economic and Trade Song Dynasty

"Sent." Qin Juan said and walked towards the bed near the door, Xiao Qu'er got off the bed and put on his shoes and followed.

Qin Juan was undressing, Xiao Qu'er had already climbed onto the bed, spread out the blanket and lay down, watching Qin Juan squint and smile.

"..." Qin Juan had nothing to say, and reached out to touch his forehead helplessly.

Over there, Gu Yue and Tao Hua also went back to their beds to lie down.

As soon as Qin Juan turned around and saw that everyone was lying down, he turned off the lights.

As soon as he entered the bed, he was hugged by Xiao Qu'er.

"Brother, I haven't slept in bed for a long time, it feels so good to sleep in bed."

"Then sleep a little longer tomorrow."

"Ah."

"Only tomorrow."

"……it is good."

"Go to sleep." Qin Juan patted him on the shoulder.

On this day, when he got up, he went up three poles, Gu Yue and Tao Hua were not in the room.

Qin Juan put on his clothes and stayed on the bed, and Xiao Qu'er followed suit.

"After washing up, go downstairs to have breakfast." Qin Juan handed a copper basin to Xiao Qu'er as he spoke.

After washing carefully, Xiao Qu'er wiped off the water on her face, and took a comb to comb the hair she washed last night.

"It's been a long time since I combed it and it got knotted. I combed it for a long time last night." Xiao Qu'er said.

"So I have to follow your master to tie up her hair." Qin Juan said, taking the comb from Xiao Qu'er's hand, he combed Xiao Qu'er again, and then used the rubber band on his wrist to make a ball for Xiao Qu'er.

"Wow, big brother is amazing." Xiao Qu'er looked at herself in the bronze mirror and said excitedly.

"I'm missing a hairpin, go to the market to see if there's anything for sale." Qin Juan touched his head, then reached out to hold his little hand, "Let's go eat first."

I thought Gu Yue and Tao Hua were having breakfast downstairs, but they were not found when they went downstairs.

The waiter told him that the two had gone out early in the morning.

"Go out together?" Qin Juan felt strange when he heard it.

Waiter: "Not together, one in front and one in back, about half an hour apart."

That's reasonable, the two of them were like brothers only when they played cards last night...

After breakfast, Qin Juan and Xiao Qu'er also went out to the street. Before leaving the inn, they asked about the interesting places here.

"Brother, do you have money to play?" Xiao Qu'er asked him.

"..." Qin Juan touched his pocket, "Of course."

Before leaving, I was afraid that I would fall on the road, "wrong"

"Then why did Gu Yue brother deliver the earrings and hair crown to the inn last night?" Xiao Qu'er wondered.

Qin Juan blushed: "It's not that he didn't let him mortgage in the end... I just tested whether he was sincere."

"So that's the case. Fortunately, brother Gu Yue is sincere." Xiao Qu'er looked at him innocently.

"..." Qin Juan wanted to dig a hole and bury himself.

"Go to the horse market first." Qin Juan got on the horse with Xiao Qu'er in his arms.

Before returning to Luobu, you must purchase at least three interchangeable horses, so as to ensure that you can at least reach Husi Ordu smoothly.

But horses are very expensive, and there are three of them, and the trading volume is huge. People in the horse market may check his details.

So he decided to talk to the people on the outskirts of the horse market who were selling their horses in desperate need of money.

Those hanging around outside the horse market are probably looking to sell horses.

Qin Juan walked over, pretending to ask someone casually.

After some conversation, I learned that this man was lost with the caravan. He sold the horse for silver and then sent a letter to wait for the caravan to pick him up.

"How much is your horse?"

"It's a good horse, and now it's sold at a low price, for a piece of horseshoe silver."

A good horse is like a good horse, but not as good in color and appearance as his pot.

The only thing is that this horse has sharp eyes, and it is obvious that it is a strong horse before training, and only a strong horse can keep its eyes sharp.

Even in the face of adversity with its owner, it still maintains a fresh posture.

Thinking of this, Qin Juan also decided that this was a good horse.

"How old is it?"

"A little over two years old." The man continued, "If I hadn't run out of options, I wouldn't have thought about selling it. Look at how beautiful and energetic it is. I think you've only admired it all the way."

Qin Juan was already persuaded: "What's its name?"

"It's called Seventh Brother."

Brother Seven, who speaks fearfully, is a bit like Brother Qin...

It's like rushing to pair with his jug, god sent it...

Qin Juan didn't think about it any more, and handed the man a piece of horseshoe silver: "I won't cut your price anymore, I'll buy it."

"Thank you. You are a straightforward person and a good person. You will be rewarded." The man was very grateful. Trading horses in the black market outside the horse market is risky. The man did not dare to speak too loudly, so he could only thank him in a low voice.

The man collected the money and walked away quickly after not staying for long.

Qin Juan handed over the reins to Xiao Qu'er and told him to sit down.

He got off the horse and went to ride Seventh Brother. He just touched Seventh Brother, but Seventh Brother turned his head away, and he didn't even touch the horse hair.Qin Juan froze for a moment, as if he had been shocked for no reason, even Xiao Qu'er was stunned, rubbing his eyes, he had never seen such a tempered horse.

Qin Juan pouted, he still didn't believe it!He touched Seventh Brother's head with both hands, Seventh Brother couldn't dodge it, he caught him and rubbed his hair violently.Seventh Brother shook his head in disgust, and his hair flung Qin Juan's face.

"..." It wasn't the first time Qin Juan was slapped at by a horse, but it was the first time that Qin Juan was slapped at by a horse he bought with his own money.

"I spend money for fun! It's not for your shame!" I don't remember where I learned the lines, but I just said it in a weird way.

Without further ado, Qin Juan turned over and got on his horse.

But Seventh Brother just refused to leave, Qin Juan whipped him cruelly, and it took a few steps slowly.

Why is the spirited horse so boring?Are you sick?

It's over, have you been cheated!

This idea suddenly popped up in his mind, which startled Qin Juan.

Ride to the veterinary clinic and ask the veterinarian to come out to check on Brother Qi.

The veterinarian checked him and told him that the horse was fine.

"Really? You check carefully, it walks so slowly."

"No! There's nothing wrong with the hooves and internal organs! It's fine! Don't bother me here, I'm busy, go away!" the veterinarian said impatiently.

Qin Juan was about to get angry, and wanted to go to the horse dealer, but the veterinarian said the horse was fine, but the horse walked slowly, why did he buy it?

"Brother, is it hungry?" Xiao Qu'er said suddenly.

When Qin Juan heard it, he thought it made sense, so he went to the medical hall to find a veterinarian to buy some food and grass.

Qin Juan fed the horse with grain and grass, and the strange thing happened again, the horse only ate bean stalks, and only looked for the ones with beans to eat!

At the end of the meal, the leftover hay didn't move, and there was no mistake, and I didn't bite a bite of grass.

"... Amazing, you are really amazing!" Qin Juan wanted to laugh while gnashing his teeth.

The horse was full now, and he just got on it, only to feel that it couldn't even lift its legs the same way as before, Qin Juan hugged Xiao Qu'er.

At this moment, Seventh Brother let out a long roar, raised his legs and ran, the other horse froze for a moment, and followed Seventh Brother.

Qin Juan thought that this horse was not ordinary, nor did it look like a merchant's horse.

He had only seen army horses, and this thought crossed his mind, and Qin Juan thought it was most likely an army horse.

The man who sold him the horse?Maybe not a businessman...

Even though he thought so, he didn't want to find out where the horse came from.

In short, Brother Qi was bought by him now, and he was his horse.

"Brother! This horse can shake its head when it runs!" Xiao Qu'er didn't say that Qin Juan hadn't noticed it yet, and he thought it was funny at first, but upon closer inspection, this horse has a high-spirited spirit that no other horse has. high spirits.

"A good horse, really a good horse!" Qin Juan laughed, Xin Dao Seventh brother can grow up with Xiao Baiju Huhu after returning to Luobu.

After Qin Juan returned to the inn, Gu Yue also brought a horse back, and Tao Hua also said that he had ordered a horse and would only pick it up in a few days.

It turned out that they had a tacit understanding to buy horses early in the morning.

When the two looked at Qin Juan's horse, they stopped for a while, and after a while, they asked in unison: "How much is this horse? Where did you get the money from?"

Seventh Brother raised his chin, looking arrogant and expensive just by looking at it.

Yes, this horse can give others a feeling that it looks expensive and wild.

Qin Juan said that he didn't spend much money, and he didn't have much money to spend, so he prevaricated the two of them.

Five days later, Fox's letter arrived.

To be exact, it was a letter from Fox's cavalry.

Qin Juan took it apart and took a look, it was to inform him that Huhu had returned.

In other words, the deal between Zhao Huaizhi and Prince Guo Bai should have been forced to terminate due to the events of those few days.

It should be a matter of Song State, Qin Juan can be sure.

"Okay, we can also set off to go back."

When Qin Juan said these words, Gu Yue and the others were inexplicably excited.

This is the true sense of travel, and I hope they can see the grasslands on the outskirts of Luobu City when the next spring comes.

Oh, no matter how bad it is, the summer of the next year will do!

"Go to the market to buy food and clothing tonight, the leftovers are usually cheap, and leave tomorrow morning." Qin Juan looked at them and said.

Gu Yue and Tao Hua are responsible for buying clothes for the four of them on the road, mainly because winter is coming soon, and they also need to prepare quilts and cold-proof shoes.

Qin Juan and Xiao Qu'er went to buy food. They ate food, as well as the horse's food. After all, there was a horse that didn't even eat grass. Qin Juan was very worried about whether he could feed the seventh brother.

"Cheese and pies can last for a month, but jerky is too expensive and only half a month's worth." Qin Juan said, and asked the shopkeeper if he had any other dry food.

"Do you want this seaweed?" The shopkeeper asked him.

Qin Juan had never seen it before, and the shopkeeper said: "It's seafood, because it's convenient and has been used as dry food for business travelers along the coast. If you want it, take it all, and it will be cheaper for you."

Qin Juan tasted a piece first and found it not bad, so he bought it. Anyway, this thing does not take up much space, and the taste is salty, so it should be able to replenish the salt.

The saddle was full of large and small bags, and by the way, a batch of special products, as well as wooden Buddha statues were brought in. This town produces wooden Buddha statues and other gods.

It is expected that after arriving at a distant place, he will sell these goods in exchange for money.

After all, the money will be used up, and they have to find a way to earn it, otherwise they will not be able to support Hu Siwu's ears.
