Section 29 Windfall

Pei Mingcui said that after so long, Xiao Liuzi's back had not disappeared. When he heard Pei Mingcui's curse, Xiao Liuzi could only run faster and complained.

Arrow made a face at Yang Dezhi, thinking that anyone who married such a wife would definitely not be able to bear it. It would be difficult to sacrifice the ego to help the big one less.

"Miss." Gao Shiqing said in a deep voice: "There are horses that make mistakes, and people make mistakes. A servant is not worthy of your anger. This is not a place to entertain guests. It is better for us to change places."

Pei Mingcui actually nodded and everyone was overjoyed. Because except for Xiao Buyi, everyone obviously felt that this place was not a fool.

Several people arrived at a side hall. Although it was not as grand as the main hall, it was very elegant. Everyone now knew that this place must be managed by Gao Shiqing. He said that this young lady was a gentleman, and he would not believe it if she was beaten to death.

Gao Shiqing asked the servants to drink tea and asked them to retreat.

In the side hall, except Xiao Buyi, Yang Dezhi and Arrow, only Pei Mingcui and Gao Shiqing were left.

Xiao Buyi and the other two never dreamed that the Pei family caravan, which was unpredictable a few days ago, was now so familiar with him.

Gao Shiqing coughed lightly, "Miss, why are you walking your horse in person today? Do you know that the son of a daughter cannot sit in the hall. If you make a mistake, how can I explain to the master?"

Pei Mingcui snorted coldly, "You are afraid of trouble, I'm not afraid. If something happens, I'll take responsibility."

"What's going on today?" Xiao Buyi seemed to be angry when she saw Pei Mingcui, and was a little worried that she would only be angry and forgot about the business.

"It's not because I want to race a horse with Liang Zixuan," Pei Mingcui was furious, and hit the table hard with a fist. The teacup was almost overturned. "I have lost two games in a row. No matter what, I can't lose. I can't believe in those subordinates. I was originally walking around the sky, but I didn't expect that it would go crazy before I left the city."

Although she is a woman, she is a man with full behavior and deeds. Xiao Buyi and others look at each other, wanting to laugh but dare not.

"Brother Xiao," Gao Shiqing could not contradict Pei Mingcui, so he had to look at Xiao Buyi, "What's wrong with that horse? Could it be that the rough man who collected the forage accidentally mixed it and was eaten by Qingxiao?"

"I can only say that horses are extremely rare. They usually grow on cliffs and are not easy to pick." Xiao Buyi did not draw a conclusion, but everyone understood that if according to Xiao Buyi's statement, horses are extremely difficult to pick. It is not accidental that Qingxiao goes crazy, and collecting grass is not a mistake.

"Master, Miss." Xiao Liuzi rushed in panting, "I searched all over Mayi, but the groom disappeared."

"Useless thing." Pei Mingcui stood up suddenly and kicked him.

Xiao Liuzi didn't dare to dodge, and sat on the ground, grinning, and miserable.

"Miss, they are prepared." Gao Shiqing sighed and reached out to hold Pei Mingcui. "If the groom doesn't leave, I'm just listening to Brother Xiao's words, and I'm not sure, but since the groom escapes, it's obvious that Qingxiao is going crazy because they did it deliberately."

Pei Mingcui was a little surprised, "You mean the groom was bribed by Liang Zixuan and the others, and then they fed Qingxiao's horse. They knew that I was irritable. If I made a fool of myself, I might kill Qingxiao to vent my anger. Marseille was no match for losing. Now that the groom saw that he was not good, he ran away?"

Everyone thought to themselves, you only understand what you understand so clearly.

"I have this suspicion." Gao Shiqing was not anxious or impatient.

Pei Mingcui was not furious this time, but calmed down. "Last time, I only brought back three horses from the Turks, and I lost twice. In this way, they raced horses again, and we had no horses to participate in the competition, so they won no more than? If the groom was bribed this time, then I lost to them the last two times, was it also them who were at work?"

Gao Shiqing nodded and said, "Miss is smart. Although there is no evidence at present, I think it is most likely."

"Okay, Liang Zixuan, you are actually having fun with me." Pei Mingcui seemed to be about to rush out of the side hall and ask Liang Zixuan to comment.

Gao Shiqing hurriedly stopped him, "Miss, don't be impulsive. We have no evidence. Just relying on the horses found by Brother Xiao, I can't explain anything. If you go like this, they will not only not admit it, but will instead make them laugh at me."

"What should I do? Let's just forget it?" Pei Mingcui still had a hot temper.

"I think I can only forget it." Gao Shiqing saw Pei Mingcui's eyes like a copper bell and said as calmly as possible: "Since we know that they are messing around, we will beat them in the next race, which is better than anything else."

"How long will that horse dry have on Qingxiao?" Pei Mingcui finally sat down and turned her head to look at Xiao Buyi.

"I let it blood, it has calmed down now." Xiao Buyi thought for a while, "The influence of horses should be very weak."

"But Qingxiao was injured." Pei Mingcui gritted her teeth and said, "What should I use to compete?"

Of course, she did not blame Xiao Buyi, but told the truth.

"What's going on with the game?" Xiao Buyi couldn't help asking.

"It's not that Tianmao's miscellaneous people look down on the Pei family caravan and have always been arrogant." Pei Mingcui swears, and looks more like a man.

"The Tianmao caravan has several supporters. Liang Zixuan's old man is the Liang Shidu of Shuofang. The Liang family is the one that invested the most money among the Tianmao's families. Liang Shidu is now the Yingyanglang General and has received the support of the Liang family. The other two families in Tianmao are the local wealthy Liu family and the Xue family in Jincheng. Liu Wuzhou of the Liu family and Xue Ju of the Xue family are now both lieutenant of Yingyang Mansion. They are domineering and arrogant. Although their officials are not big, their family is very strong, they are not moral and have no shortage of money, and they have always looked down on Pei family."

Gao Shiqing could only smile bitterly when he heard Pei Mingcui say these things in anger.

Xiao Buyi understood a little, but more of it was not known. He didn't know what Yingyang Mansion was, but the only thing he understood was that Tianmao was funded by the three families, the Liang family in Shuofang, the Liu family in Mayi, and the Xue family in Jincheng. The representatives of the three families were Liang Shidu, Liu Wuzhou and Xue Ju.

Tianmao called wind and rain in Mayi, and even had a great reputation in the Central Plains. Even Xue Buren, a copycat, gave him information, followed Tianmao and had everything to eat and drink.

In this way, the Liang family, the Liu family and the Jin family already have great power, but the Pei family can actually get one to three. Does this mean that the Pei family is not simple?

He thought of this, and Pei Mingcui had already said, "But Brother Xiao, don't worry. Although the three families have different powers, our Pei family is not giving it to you for nothing. Besides..."

Gao Shiqing suddenly coughed, interrupting Pei Mingcui's following, "Miss, Qingxiao is injured, what should we use to play? Or we should give up this game simply."

Pei Mingcui realized something and stopped the topic, but shook her head flatly, "How can it be? Losing money for the game is small, and the face is big. I have lost six taels of gold in the last two games, and I bet ten taels this time." Suddenly thinking about something, Pei Mingcui turned her head and looked at Xiao Buyi, "Brother Xiao, you are superb in equestrianism. Can you help me compete in this game? If you win, you will give you all twenty taels of gold. The Pei family will support you in any business in the future."

Buddha asked for a stick of incense, and people fought for a breath. Pei Mingcui was used to being careless and didn't seem to care about this little benefit. She asked only to kill Tianmao's aura.

As soon as she said this, Gao Shiqing and Xiao Liuzi had no unexpected expressions. They were obviously used to this kind of squandering, and Yang Dezhi and Arrow almost jumped up.

What does twenty taels of gold mean? The unified currency of the Sui Dynasty was only minted with Wuzhu coins. Gold and silver were not widely circulated, but because things were rare, gold and silver were much more expensive than Wuzhu coins.

One tael of silver is almost equivalent to twenty hangs of money, while one tael of gold is almost two hundred hangs, and twenty hangs of gold is simply an astronomical figure for the entire copycat.

If you have this fund, the initial funding of counterfeit horse dealers is definitely not a problem!

But that's not all. Now that Pei Mingcui has offered the support of the Pei family, it is simply beneficial to the counterfeiter horse dealers.

As long as you think about the business that is spread all over the world and with their support, a relative of Wang Rengong's prefect is a drop in the bucket, and Wang Rengong is nothing.

And these are just letting Xiao Buyi compete in a horse race?
