Long live the ancestral dragon of all worlds

Chapter 43
Ying Zheng counted the time with his fingers, and it has not been a month since he recruited Ji Gang.

It will take a few more days to get the next summoning card.

Before the time came, Ying Zheng had no choice but to be patient and wait.

Then he turned his thoughts to another matter - buying a good horse.

If you want to destroy the western dog army, you must have a heavy cavalry regiment.

The most important thing in forming a heavy cavalry regiment is to have enough horses and high-quality horses.

It has been several days since the order to seek horses to build Yulin Garden was announced to the world.

I don't know how the royal court's purchase of good horses is going.
Turning around, Ying Zheng said to the nearby eunuch, "Servant Xuan is here to see you!"

Tai servant, the official position in charge of the royal family's chariots and horses.

The request for horses this time is to buy good horses for the royal family Yulinyuan, and the horses bought will naturally be handed over to the servants.

This can deceive people's eyes and ears, and has many conveniences.

If it is issued directly, the Qin army's order to buy war horses will attract the attention of all countries.

In order to prevent Qin from increasing its cavalry, countries will definitely restrict the import of their own horses into Qin.

But under the guise of Yulinyuan, the situation is different.

"No!" The eunuch's servant went to proclaim the edict.

Soon, the servant came, respectfully knelt down, and saluted King Qin.

"Excuse me!" Ying Zheng said, "How many good horses did the Tai Servant's House buy recently?"

"Your Majesty, there are only eight horses, and the quality can only be regarded as medium. Moreover, they were all sent by horse dealers from other places who had cooperated with the Taifu Mansion before." The Taifu said truthfully.

Ying Zheng frowned slightly: "Only eight horses?!"

In this way, the order to ask for a horse did not have much effect at all.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" the servant confirmed.

Ying Zheng waved his hand: "You step back and continue to buy good horses."

"No!" The servant bowed his hands and retreated.

Qin Wangdao: "Send someone to send a message to Lang Zhongling, let him act!"

"No!" The servant eunuch took the order.

……

Three days later, at the entrance of Xianyang City.

The sound of gongs and drums is very lively.

People who don't know why, thought it was a wealthy family that held the wedding.

Follow the sound.

I saw a group of royal guards escorting dozens of tall horses with big red flowers hanging on them, like a groom, coming towards the city.

What is particularly eye-catching is that in front of this horse team, there is a high-standard bronze cart covered with red silk cloth.

This is not out of focus.

The key point is that there is a white horse bone on the cart, and there are big red flowers hanging on it.

Its bones are strong, but slender and well-proportioned.

One can tell at a glance that this horse must be a rare horse of thousands of miles.

The doctor ordered Zhou Bin, standing on another cart, his face was full of joy.

This unusual scene naturally attracted many people to watch.

They knew that His Majesty had issued a request for horses to the world some time ago, saying that he was going to build the Royal Forest Garden, and all the good horses found would be included in the Royal Forest Garden for His Majesty to hunt, ride and shoot.

If you are looking for a good horse, you are looking for a good horse, but why is there a horse bone on the cart?
The people were very puzzled.

At this time, Lang Zhongling, who was standing on the car, heard everyone's curious comments, and ordered to stop the car.

He said to the crowd: "Are you all curious, this order transports a horse bone back?"

"Yes, Mr. Lang Zhongling, we feel uncomfortable like cats scratching in our hearts!"

"Tell us about it!"

Some bold people asked the doctor.

Zhou Bin smiled and said:

"Everyone, this order is ordered by His Majesty to go out to find a good horse, and His Majesty especially loves a thousand-mile horse.

But such good horses are so rare that it is extremely difficult to find them.

Benling traveled to many places, but he did not find Chollima.

Faith will move mountains to open.

Huangtian paid off, and finally in a place called Yuancheng, Benling finally got the news of Maxima.

However, when Ben Ling arrived, the Chollima died unexpectedly.

However, His Majesty still asked Ben Ling to spend five hundred gold to bring the bone of a thousand-mile horse back to Xianyang and send it to Yulin Garden to rectify his desire for a horse. "

Having said that, Lang Zhongling paused.

"Your Majesty spent five hundred gold to buy a horse bone?!"

"This... this is too unbelievable, five hundred gold can sell hundreds of good horses!!"

"It seems that His Majesty is really eager for a horse!"

"If I have a horse, I will come and sell it to Your Majesty!"

"Those who have good horses are really going to make a fortune this time!"

"That's right, I'm envious of others!"

The onlookers chattered wildly.

Lang Zhongling cupped his hands, and said again: "Everyone, please spread the word widely so that His Majesty can get more good horses and fill them into the Imperial Forest Garden."

After finishing speaking, Zhou Bin led the horse team to Zhangtai Palace amidst the discussions among the crowd.

When he came outside the gate of the palace, he found that His Majesty and his servants were already waiting there.

It shows that King Qin attached great importance to Maxima.

Although Lang Zhongling only bought the skeleton of a Chollima, and it cost a sky-high price of five hundred gold, King Qin rewarded Lang Zhongling heavily.

……

On that day, there was an uproar in Xianyang City about the fact that the King of Qin bought a horse bone for five hundred gold.

In the streets and alleys, teahouses and restaurants are talking about it.

The deeds of Wubaijin City's horse bones are much more useful than seeking horse orders.

After all, many common people don't know a single character, so they won't pay attention to Wang Zhao if they have nothing to do.

But the matter of horse bones in the five hundred gold market can become their gossip for bragging and farting after dinner, and they can chatter even if they are illiterate.

So this matter spread like a storm.

Even if you don't want to hear it, the news will get in your ears.

Many horse dealers have already known to ask for horse orders.

But they were dubious.

After all, the state of Qin is simple and honest, advocating frugality, and the Qin royal family has always been like this.

So when the order to ask for horses came out, the horse dealers didn't care about King Qin's desire to buy good horses at a high price.

But today, after hearing about the deeds of Wubaijin City's horse bones.

They are caring, very caring!
The prosperity of the world is all about profit!

Who would have trouble with money? !
The horse dealers in Xianyang rushed the good horses in their hands, whether they were originally destined for others or unowned, to the Taipu Mansion.

See if you can be spotted by the royal family and buy it at a sky-high price.

Doing so is obviously a breach of contract, but in the face of high interests, a breach of contract is also a breach of contract.

The big deal is to lose some money to the buyer who reserved the horse.

There is almost no horse production in Daqin, and the horse dealers in Xianyang are all from Shandong and Quanrong.

They are not as honest, straightforward, and trustworthy as the old Qin people.

If you don't make money, you're an idiot.

In the face of several times, even dozens of times, or a hundred times the benefits, these horse dealers resolutely chose to breach the contract.

On the day that Lang Zhongling came back with the horse bones, the Tai Pu Mansion bought two hundred good horses.

Of course, it also paid a big price.

The cheapest ones are twice the usual price, and some rare horses are even five or six times the usual price.

Today, horse traders in Xianyang are making a lot of money.

Almost all the horse dealers left Xianyang overnight, went to their respective purchase places, searched for good horses, and then sold them to the imperial servant's mansion of Qin State.

After hearing the eunuch's report on today's harvest, Ying Zheng smiled.
