Chapter 131
After the matters in the school were settled, the villagers were more looking forward to the children going to school, and many families even started to let girls go to school.

Jing Li expressed that she was very satisfied with this. Of course, Zhu Chengcai still raised his head and dismissed her when he saw her. Don't ever expect him to have a good impression of this woman.

"Ah Li, this is General Chen's quartermaster!" Wan Baoquan came back, bringing with him a man who looked like a manager.

Jingli stepped forward to greet him, but the man was very polite: "Girl, you don't have to be polite, just call me Lao Xu. The general said, if the horse is indeed a Hequ horse, then of course he wants it!"

Jing Li was overjoyed, and then she and Wan Baoquan took Lao Xu to the stable. Lao Xu's eyes lit up when he saw the horses in the stable.

God, this is really a Hequ horse, and it is also a war horse. The situation with the Liao people is tense now, and you may not be able to buy it with money. All the good horses in the army were bought privately from the Liao people by horse dealers.

"How much is this?" Old Xu Mo asked, stroking the horse's back.

"47 horses in total!"

Lao Xu shook his head: "It's a little short!"

Jing Li and Shen Huwei looked at each other and smiled: "If you think this horse is good, I will definitely get it back for you in the spring!"

Old Xu squinted at the girl in front of him. When he came, Chen Zhongyu told him that if the horse is good, the price should be whatever it is. The price must not be lowered just because the horse is a girl.

Lao Xu thought to himself that this girl must have some background, otherwise General Chen would be so busy all day long, why would he specifically give instructions on such a trivial matter?

Jing Li looked at Old Xu's expression. Did he think there was something wrong with the way he came from, or was he trying to lower the price?
Lao Xu did not hesitate: "This horse is indeed a Hequ horse, and the breed is considered to be of the best quality. The Hequ horses purchased before were priced at 85 taels per horse. This horse has a majestic physique. I will give you [-]. What do you think?" "

Jingli didn't know what the price was outside, so Wanbaoquan winked at her, knowing in her heart that Wanbaoquan must have inquired about the price outside, and the price should be good.

"You are always General Chen's man, how can you make us suffer? At such a price, do you think you should take them all away or something? I will arrange for someone to send them to you!" Jing Li made a decision quickly.

Old Xu was startled. He originally thought that the girl might have to endure the price by taking advantage of General Chen's favor, but he didn't expect to be so happy.

The group immediately arrived at the meeting hall and signed the purchase and sale documents. Old Xu took out the banknote from his arms and handed it to Jing Li with both hands.

Jing Li took the banknote and asked Lao Xu: "It is said that the horse sale must be registered with the government. Do we want to go there?"

Lao Xu waved his hand: "No, my general just needs to say hello to County Magistrate Li!"

After seeing Old Xu off, Jing Li happily went to Mr. Jing to report the good news: "Master, we did not lose money on this business. We sold more than 4000 taels of silver."

Mr. Jing was so happy when he heard this: "Okay, now we won't have to worry about Gaiwubao's money next year."

"It's just that it's better not to do this kind of business in the future. It's too dangerous. If it hadn't been for Xiao Huo this time, it's not sure whether you would have been able to come back with everything!"

Mr. Jing thought for a while and asked Jing Li: "Ah Li, you said that we have got so much gold, silver and horses, should we share some with Xiao Huo? I owe you a lot of favors, and I feel a little unreal. ah!"

Jing Li nodded: "Okay, I'll ask him later. If he really doesn't want to be polite, we shouldn't force him to do anything. After all, he is a noble and upright person, so let's not fall into his trap!"

As Jing Li sent Mr. Jing away, he thought, aren't they all so poor that only money is left?What are you asking him for? He definitely despises such a little bit of mosquito meat!
"Well, how much will you give me?" Huo Shen asked, touching his chin.

What?Do you really want it?Aren’t you short of money?Jing Li's little face almost tensed up. Why didn't this person play his cards according to the routine? She was already prepared for Huo Shen to refuse and she would say a few words of reluctance.Huo Shen sneered: "I know you are a tough guy who can only get in and out, but you are just pretending to ask!"

Jing Li said: "How is that possible! I have always been the most kind and righteous person. You saved us, so I should repay you. How can I be reluctant to part with you!"

Huo Shen spread his hands and said, "Then give it to me. A few dozen horses can bring in an income of several thousand, and it is said that I got a lot of windfall on the grassland!"

"You have a beautiful idea. The wealth of the grassland is what we have gained through life and death. It has nothing to do with you. At most, I will give you a share of the horse's money!" Jing Li jumped to his feet instantly.
"Haha! Sure enough, you got mad when I mentioned money, and you said you weren't fake!" Huo Shen turned around and left with a look that had seen through her.

Jingli slapped her forehead, ugh!What he said was right. People have saved so many people of his. You can't pretend not to give them just because they have money.

As expected, poor people have short ambitions, and Jingli felt that the tight economy had made her a little bit picky, which was not a good idea.

"Here you two hundred!" Jing Li chased after him.

Huo Shen continued walking forward without looking back.

"Three hundred!" Huo Shen still ignored her.

"Five hundred! No more! If I take my life for you any more!" Jing Li muttered the last part of the sentence.

"Deal!" Huo Shen turned around suddenly, and Jingli hit him on the chest without stopping. He suddenly felt that his nose was crooked, and he quickly rubbed the sore tip of his nose.

Jing Li muttered: "He is indeed a stingy man, he only nodded after 500 taels of silver!"

Jingli felt like a villain beating her chest and stomping her feet, her heart ached so much! 500 taels of silver, the hunting team had to spend every day in the snowy mountains, and it took a month to get out the money!
"I'm not talking about silver!" Huo Shen stared at Jing Li with bright eyes.

"It's not silver. Do you still want gold? I'm telling you, Huo, don't push yourself too far."

"I don't want gold and silver, I want you!" What?Jingli's brain reaction was slow for a moment, and it took her a while to come back to her senses. Huo Shen said he wanted her?

Huo Shen looked deeply at the girl in front of him, waiting for her to blush with embarrassment and say: "Well, you are so annoying!"

Jing Li thought for a moment and said calmly: "It's not impossible, but we have to agree on the salary first. I'm in charge of the food and drink of a village. I tell you, the salary can't be too low. After all, I can fight, kill and eat. It’s not much, and when you bring it out, it’s all orderly and pompous. For a subordinate like me who is very cost-effective, you won’t suffer any loss no matter how high your salary is.”

"There are also rest days, family visit days, and pension benefits, or injury compensation will be calculated separately."

Jing Li thought about it carefully and realized that she didn't seem to have any acquaintances here, only the Xiao family and Wang Tan.

There is an unreliable second uncle in the Xiao family, and it is not easy to get on this boat. Wang Tan, there has been no news since the breakup until now, and I don’t know what the situation is.

Huo Shen is close to Chen Zhongyu and should have a good network. Can he get in and see if he can find a way to get Ma Yi into his own pocket?

Now it was Huo Shen's turn to be stunned. What on earth was she talking about?Why did he suddenly become his subordinate again?Is he in need of subordinates?
