Ganzhou City was a famous city in Longxi Province. It was bustling with commerce and trade, and it was a gathering of people. Friends who traveled west to the Green Dragon Ridge or the Ganliang Path would have to stop here for two to three days after a long and arduous journey to the bustling Gan Province City. One reason was to rest their legs, and the other was to take a good look around the famous city.
The wine here was famous, famous in the three provinces and forty-eight cities surrounding Longxi. The wine was collectively known as Old Guotou.
The most famous song here was a sweet song with a sweet accent. The tune was sonorous and melodious, and when sung, it was heart-wrenching and passionate.
The most famous silk here was the sweet silk. The sweet silk was tight, sturdy, and wear-resistant. It was also deeply loved by many of the Central Plains 'aristocrats.
Everyone within a thousand miles said that the girls in Gan Province were the most popular. Their eyebrows were curved, their almond-shaped eyes glistened with autumn water, their slim waist was slender, their small face was like a goose egg, and their lips were cherry. Their skin was as smooth as jade, and their lips seemed to be dyed. They were naturally beautiful. When they looked back and smiled, the world would change.
The culture here was also flourishing, and there were many temples. The local residents lived a rich life, so hospitality was common. Therefore, many of his friends who had traveled far and wide never wanted to move again when they came to Gan Province City.
Someone said,"If you want to be rich, go to Gan Liang. If you want to enjoy yourself, go to Gan Province."”From this, it could be seen that Gan Province City was a good place to spend money. There were six famous Rouge Alley in the west of the city. Most of the girls there were from the Northern Region. They were tall and had a fierce personality. They were deeply loved by merchants, scholars, and officials who came here from all over the world. Friends who loved this path would flock to Rouge Alley to look for beauties and choose their women. There were many rich guests who would spend a lot of money just to get a smile from a beauty.
There was a famous horse racing track in the south of the city. Every time the temple fair was held, the owner of the largest horse racing track in the city would personally host the horse racing event. Friends who were good at riding from all directions would be very happy to show off their skills if they happened to have a strong horse.
Gan Province City was famous for its annual horse race. As one of the most outstanding features of the city, it had added a lot of color to it.
To the men and women of Gan Province, horse racing was the hottest topic of the season. Everyone was happy to talk about it when they met.
It was the second day before the horse racing event. All the heroes on horseback met with the wind and clouds. Overnight, all the inns in Gan Province were full. Even the shabby shacks opened by the old Hui people in the suburbs were filled with guests from all over the city.
During this period of time, it was also a great opportunity for the merchants in Dry Horse Market. Horse dealers from all over the world had gathered here. The value of a famous horse was often shocking. A simple reselling of it could earn a huge sum of money. Therefore, some horse dealers were extremely concerned about this matter.
At this time, there were often so-called " horse masters ", which meant that they were extremely knowledgeable in horse appraisal and specialized in visiting famous horses. With their tested eyes, their excellent understanding of horses, and their usually slippery mouth, they were always at a disadvantage when it came to second-hand sales.
On the eve of the horse race, Master Ma's group was the most active in Gan Province.
Fiery Eyes Wu Santong was the most famous one among Master Ma.
This guy was born with a pair of golden eyes. His eyelids were red all year round, and his horse-like face was like the skin of an orange that had been dried for years. In terms of appearance, this person was simply ugly. However, this ugly looking fellow had earned him a fortune in recent years with his pair of "Fiery Golden Eyes"!
In recent years, there was a saying in Gan Province: Any horse race that Wu Santong had his eyes on was definitely right. Among the famous horses that had won the top three in the horse races in recent years, seven or eight of them had been chosen by Wu Santong in advance, and he had even sold them in the middle.
Therefore, a rumor spread: If you want to win the championship at the Gan Province Horse Race, you must first find Wu Santong and ask him to help you! Therefore, once Wu Santong personally evaluated and approved a horse, its value would definitely increase by a hundred times. Even if you didn't participate in the horse race, there would be others willing to pay a high price to buy it. In the past few years, the Fiery Golden Eyes Wu Santong's fortune was simply too prosperous. The limelight could be said to be unparalleled.
On this day, Wu Santong saw another horse. It was a pure black horse that was completely black from head to toe and from tail to tail.
Perhaps it was not very appropriate to use the word horse to describe this horse, because this black horse had just gone through a long journey. It had traveled a thousand miles, and it looked very tired. Moreover, its entire body was covered in a layer of gray sand. At first glance, it did not look like a black horse, but rather a gray horse.
Fiery Golden Eyes Wu Santong specially fetched a large basin of clear water from the well and found a good horse brush to personally wash the horse's body. The horse returned to its original appearance.
This horse was indeed an extraordinary and unique divine steed. Wu Santong's Fiery Golden Eyes stared at it without blinking. He stared at it for a full cup of tea's time, and saliva seemed to drip from the corner of his mouth.
There was only one pure black horse tied to the pillar, but there were two people looking at it carefully. Apart from Wu Santong, the other person was Ma Er, the little shop assistant of Tongfu Inn.
It was all thanks to Ma Er's help in this matter. He was the one who secretly led the horse out of the stable. In addition, this matter was carried out behind the horse's owner's back. Therefore, the little shop assistant Ma Er felt like a thief and was extremely nervous. He was worried that the horse's owner would suddenly appear. If that happened, he would inevitably be scolded. It was even very likely that the horse's owner would beat him up in anger.
Ma Er asked nervously," What's going on? Master Wu, don't keep silent. Give me a complete sentence first!”
Wu Santong still did not utter a word. His fiery golden eyes seemed to have turned redder and yellower. His wrinkled eyebrows were sometimes unfurled and sometimes furrowed together, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking.
Ma Er could not take it anymore and said anxiously,"My good Master Wu! Say something!"
He looked around and lowered his voice slightly.""Master, hurry up and say something. You don't know how much risk I took. The owner of this horse is a very difficult guest. If he knows that I secretly led his horse out, it would be strange if he doesn't want my life!”
"What a good horse!" Wu Santong only managed to speak after a long time. As he spoke, his short hair stood up like a horse's mane.
Based on his rich experience in Gan Province's horse market for more than 20 years and his fiery eyes that had seen many famous horses, he felt that he had encountered a rare and good horse this time.
Ma Er was stunned for a moment and asked nervously,""So, you really like this horse?”
He sized up the pure black horse and nodded."I think the horse's condition is not far off. Master Wu, what number are you planning to give?”
