Chapter 17 Rouge

Chen Mu bought a war horse, which was a low-class war horse from the north. Although it sounded quite majestic, as a sixteen-year-old war horse, it was no longer suitable for appearing on the battlefield again, so after several changes, it finally fell into Chen Mu's hands for a price of 5 taels and 7 cents.

Just as Bai Yuanjie said, the merchants in Guangzhou have a good personality and don’t make much money by explaining the situation clearly. The horse was collected for three taels and six cents in Yangzhou. After three months of good grass every day, they are now sold for five taels and seven cents, and merchants can earn 30%.

Chen Mu walked around the livestock market and asked many vendors. Not only did he find out the horse prices in Guangzhou, but he even found out the prices of horses in the northwest two ounces. The horses and mules and horses that carry goods are only one or two taels, two or three taels of low-quality horses, five or six taels of medium-quality horses, eight or nine taels of high-quality horses, and thirteen or four taels of high-quality horses. Most of the markets in the northwest two ounces are at this price. The horse prices in Guangzhou are generally 30% more expensive than those in the north.

Of course, this is just a general price based on the body. In the talkative horse merchants, Chen Mu also knew that there would always be a few BMWs in various markets. BMWs with good quality can even sell thousands of taels of silver. However, even if there are many horses in Guangzhou throughout the year, it is difficult to see a few horses in Guangzhou. They are usually sent to high-ranking officials early, so they will not be sold at the turn of these horse dealers in the market to sell them.

The horse that Chen Mu liked was bright in color, with most of its body white, and its buttocks and tail were red. It was named Huo Shaoyun by Chen Mu. When he returned to the hotel, Chen Mu did not want to sleep in the stable with his horse in his arms. On the contrary, he wanted the horse to sleep with him in the guest room, but the store did not allow it.

The stables of the hotel were tied with a few horses, including two of them that looked better than his Huo Shaoyun, which also made him feel a little relieved and didn't worry about the safety of the horse.

When she sent Chen Mu back to the hotel, Shao Tingda told Chen Mu, and then called Shi Qi and Fu Yuan to see how glorious the yard of Guangzhou Prefecture was. However, one of the two people was unwilling to spend money on the yard of the yard, and the other was short of money and powerlessness. In the end, Shao Tingda ran out at night, and Chen Mu ignored him.

The Yuan Dynasty destroyed the rich commodity economy during the Song Dynasty, forming a historical regression to implement a curfew policy. The Ming Dynasty followed the Yuan Dynasty. Although the commodity economy became increasingly prosperous, there were always warnings on the frontiers, which made the night ban always implement the night ban once the Ming Dynasty. However, the night ban was mainly in the city, and it was much looser outside the city, such as the yards, and gambling stalls were mostly opened outside the city, so the Ming Dynasty was more prosperous than the city.

Chen Mu really disliked the yard. He really wanted to see the flowers and willows of the Ming Dynasty like Shao Tingda. He really left all his remaining money to be useful, so it is inconvenient to spend more of these irrelevant places. When he makes money in the future, he is free and easy, why bother rush for a while?

He slept until midnight. Chen Mu vaguely heard Shao Tingda's return. He fell asleep and opened his eyes again. He had been thinking about his newly bought horse all night last night, and he did not sleep well. However, under the flag leader, there was a child like Wei Balang who was so stupid but diligent. When Chen Mu got down to the stable, Wei Balang had already fed the horse enough for the hotel and was patiently cleaning the horse with a brush. When he saw Chen Mu coming over and greeted him, he continued to work on the great cause of washing the horse.

However, Shao Tingda was chatting next to the stable, and Shi Qi was waiting to see Chen Mu come out and stop and come over. Especially Shao Tingda had the biggest voice, "Brother, you have enough sleep, it's all right now!"

Shi Qi is not as close to Shao Tingda. Although it is hard to say anything, he also looked at Chen Mu eagerly. Fu Yuan even asked with a smile: "Xiaoqi, let's go out to eat something?"

Chen Mu started to see them waiting for him, but he couldn't help but wonder. I just slept and care about your affairs. I was very enthusiastic about waiting here. Then he realized that they didn't dare to go to dinner by themselves until they woke up.

This made Chen Mu feel very strange. These people can move freely outside the hotel, but they don’t know how to go to eat, so they just wait to take care of themselves?

He still did not really understand the superior and subordinate relationship in the feudal era.

Although he didn't understand, to be honest, the feeling of being surrounded by his subordinates was really good. Chen Mu didn't say anything more, and pulled Wei Balang's shoulder and pulled him out of the stable, waved his hand, "Go, go and have some wine and food!"

As soon as he walked out of the hotel, Shao Tingda came up and said, "Brother Mu, last night I saw a good wine shop in the east, and there were also singers in it. Let's go and have a look?"

Chen Mu glanced at him. This guy was big and thick. He slept in a daze last night and heard that he had come back late, but today he woke up earlier than him. He was so energetic that he couldn't help but waved his hand and asked him to lead the roadside and said, "Which brothel I went to last night, got up earlier than me!"

Shao Tingda blushed and smiled and said nothing, which surprised Chen Mu. This was not like the reckless man who was walking around the yard with his fingers spreading his fingers and rubbing his crotch with his pants. There must be something wrong here!

Chen Mu didn't ask, but someone else asked. Fu Yuan rubbed his hands and smiled at Shao Tingda and asked, "Brother Shao, is that brothel girl so beautiful?"

Before Fu Yuan was exiled to the army, he was a thief. He had never learned the skills of being a master. Chen Mu had never seen it, but he thought that his skills would not be able to be a master, otherwise he would not have been caught. Shao Tingda looked down on him the most. He often used him to work in farmland. He raised his foot and kicked his butt and said angrily: "If you don't look good, can you call me sister?"

Then there was a series of words that were like "the hands are soft and the breasts are soft" that praised the prostitute who had stayed at last night, and he also recited a poem that was improvised last night. When Fu Yuan was fascinated by hearing it, Wei Balang was even more blushing, but Chen Mu could hear something different: If the girl in the brothel was so good, why did Shao Tingda come back last night?

It should be back this morning no matter how hard it is!

Then, when Shao Tingda bragged to Fu Yuan and others, he said that he had been chatting with others for a long time and came back late, Chen Mu came back to his senses and laughed and scolded: "Hey! How much money did you spend?"

Shao Tingda stammered and said to Chen Mu for a long time: "Five...5 taels."

"Five liang!?" Chen Mu widened his eyes and tried his best to stop the idea of ​​pulling this stupid guy to the ground with a slap, cursing: "Five liang is enough for you to eat and drink for three months! You'll be chatting with someone for two hours?"

Five taels of silver can buy ten stones or thousands of kilograms of rice. The one who chats with him is a golden mouth!
