PS: Here, do you have flowers? Did you give me any tips?
"Of course. I named them Feng Luzi. Rouge Blood. You and Miles of Light, bring Li Guo and Fan Yong with you. Bring Third Brother and Hansheng over later. Oh right, bring Sir along too. Wait for me to come back. I have something important to discuss with you.”
"Alright, big brother. I'll set off now.”After saying that, Xu Da turned around and walked into the house.
"Alright, let's go, Dian Wei.”
"I understand, my lord." Dian Wei said in a muffled voice.
Luoyang Horse Market was located outside the east of the city. To get there, one had to go through the middle and east gate. Yuan Shao's current position was in the southeast, and the distance between the two was not far, three miles away.
An hour later, Yuan Shao and Dian Wei finally arrived at Luoyang Horse Market.
"Phew ~!" Yuan Shao jumped off his horse, his left hand holding the reins and his right hand holding his sword. He looked around, occasionally turning back to say to Dian Wei,"Dian Wei, look at all the horses here. I'm dazzled and don't know which horse store to go to.”
"My lord, I'm not sure either. Why don't we…find a peddler and ask him?”Dian Wei pointed at the stall selling flatbread by the roadside with his big hand.
"You still have a way. Not bad, Dian Wei!”Dian Wei's words reminded Yuan Shao, so Yuan Shao pulled this docile horse to the stall selling flatbread.
"Aiyo! Sir, do you want to buy some cakes? 30 yuan per volume?" The peddler asked when he saw a customer.
"No, I don't want to buy cakes. I'm here to ask you which horse store here sells peerless horses. Which horse store was the biggest? Which horse store had the best reputation? If your answer is satisfactory, then this money is yours!”After saying that, Yuan Shao threw out a string of five baht coins, about 150 wen.
"This…how can I do this? If you want to buy the king of horses, please go to the " Pingshuang Horse Store " 10 m ahead. You can buy all kinds of plowing horses, chariots, warhorses and good horses there. Additionally, the boss of the horse store travels to Youzhou Province all year round. Between Xianbei and Luoyang, if you want more, we can satisfy your needs.”The peddler didn't even think about it and started introducing it to Yuan Shao.
"Oh! It seems that this Ma Hang is quite capable. Do you know who their boss is?”Hearing this, Yuan Shao went to Youzhou for a long time. Xianbei and Luoyang. It seemed that this horse trader's business was quite big.
"This is no secret in our horse market. The owners of the Ping Shuang Horse Trading Company are from Zhongshan County. One of them is surnamed Su, and the other is surnamed Zhang.”The peddler didn't even think before he opened his mouth.
"One is surnamed Su, and the other is surnamed Zhang. Could it be…them?”Yuan Shao narrowed his eyes and whispered softly.
Su Shuang! Zhang Shiping! During the Yellow Turban Uprising, the two of them had sponsored Liu Beiliang with fifty horses, five hundred taels of gold and silver, and a thousand catties of iron.
It was no wonder that he was said to have gone missing. It turned out that he had come to Luoyang to sell horses. Later, he might have died in the Dong Zhuo Rebellion. Of course, this was also a guess.
"Alright, thank you. Dian Wei, let's go.”Yuan Shao waved his hand, indicating that it was time for Dian Wei to leave.
"Yes!"
Looking up at the official script written in front of him, Yuan Shao was just about to walk in when a manservant came out and bowed to Yuan Shao,"This noble young master, do you want a horse?”
"Of course. Go and call your shopkeeper over. Tell him that there's a big business coming.”Yuan Shao walked straight in and sat on the main seat very naturally, as if he was a natural superior.
"This…please wait a moment." The manservant looked at Yuan Shao, who was dressed in a brocade robe, and Dian Wei, who was standing behind Yuan Shao, who was nine feet tall and carried two large iron halberds on his back. He had a ferocious expression on his face, and his feet seemed to be a little unsteady.
A moment later, a middle-aged man in his fifties wearing a silk robe and a silver ring on his right index finger came out and bowed to Yuan Shao."I am Zhang Shiping. May I know what kind of horse this young master wants to buy?”
"Oh, Boss Zhang, my surname is Yuan, my name is Shao, and my surname is Ben Chu. Today, I came here to choose a peerless steed for my personal guard commander. I wonder if Boss Zhang has anything to say?”Yuan Shao asked Zhang Shiping to introduce Dian Wei.
"Hiss! This commander is so strong and powerful. He's really an extraordinary person. The Yuan family in Runan is indeed extraordinary. Commandant Yuan, you came at the right time. A few days ago, Old Su bought 300 warhorses from the eastern Xianbei, and one of them was the king of horses.”Zhang Shiping was sighing at Dian Wei's extraordinary abilities, and then he introduced him to Yuan Shao.
"Oh! Boss Zhang, I'll have to inspect the goods. If they're suitable, I'll take all 300 of your warhorses.”Yuan Shao immediately stood up when he heard that. The corners of his mouth curled into a strange arc as he smiled at Zhang Shiping.
"Commandant Yuan, this…the price is not low?”Zhang Shiping hesitated. After all, this was not a small amount.
"Humph! I once heard that in the first year of Zhongping, you and Su Shuang once passed by Zhuo County and saw Liu Bei and his brothers. Seeing that they looked different from ordinary people, you gave them gold, silver, and iron. Am I right?”Yuan Shao had an idea. He walked slowly to Zhang Shiping and whispered into his ear.
"This…how did you know?" Zhang Shiping's eyes suddenly widened, his right hand trembling as he pointed at Yuan Shao, his face filled with disbelief.
In ancient times, information was blocked. Basically, other than walking, they had to ride horses. In addition, the distance was long. Sometimes, it took more than a month for a message to travel from the north to the south.
"Boss Zhang, that Liu Bei is just a small Gao Tang token. Besides, I won't give you a single cent less.”Yuan Shao took out a gold bar and threw it to Zhang Shiping.
"Alright, Commandant Yuan, please come this way. Our horse farm is inside.”Zhang Shiping shook the gold bar in his hand and immediately brought Yuan Shao inside with a smile.
As far as the eye could see, it was a lush green grassland that stretched as far as the eye could see. Yuan Shao couldn't help but sigh."What a big grassland. It's at least ten acres of land. Boss Zhang, it seems that your business is doing very well.”
"Commandant Yuan, you flatter me. Compared to the Yuan family of Runan, which has four generations and three dukes, we are just a small family.”Zhang Shiping said modestly.
"Phew ~!" At this moment, the sound of galloping horses could be heard not far away.
"This horse's entire body is snow-white, its back is dotted with green spots, and its upper limbs are long and slender. How about Dian Wei?”Yuan Shao turned his head and asked Dian Wei.
"Please rest assured, Lord. I, Dian Wei, will definitely be able to subdue this horse. Please rest for a while, Lord.”After saying that, Dian Wei's feet started to move as he dashed out with a whoosh.
"Commandant Yuan, this horse is called Xue Qing, the king of horses. It can travel thousands of miles in a day.”Zhang Shiping introduced the horse to Yuan Shao.
Yuan Shao didn't reply. Instead, he looked at the center of the field and saw Dian Wei's huge body gripping the horse's belly with difficulty. He pulled the reins tightly with both hands to prevent the Snow Green Horse from falling off.
"Watch me!" Dian Wei shouts loudly. The veins on his hands are bulging, and his bell-sized eyes suddenly widen. He actually directly grabs the two front hooves of the Snow Green Horse with his bare hands. The enormous pressure almost makes the ground under Dian Wei sink a foot deep.
This wasn't the end. Dian Wei bent his left foot forward and straightened his right foot backward. He bent his body into a bow and suddenly exerted strength to slowly raise the two front hooves in his hands.
"Phew!" The Snow Green Horse let out a high-pitched neigh. Its jewel-like black eyes stared at Dian Wei as if it could not believe that the human in front of it was so brave.
"This horse of yours, are you convinced? Are you convinced or not?" Dian Wei's furious roar resounded through the world, and it also spread a few miles away.
"Buzz!" Zhang Shiping's ears felt like they were about to explode. He couldn't stand it anymore and covered his ears with both hands, looking stunned.
"How is it, Boss Zhang? How is my personal guard commander?”Yuan Shao also covered his ears with his hands, but the smile on his face made Zhang Shiping feel that Yuan Shao was not simple!
Ding-dong. Host Dian Wei has successfully subdued the Snow Green Horse. Base combat strength: 98. Darksteel Double Halberds 1. Snow Green Horse 1. Current combat strength has increased to 100 points.”
