Sun Tu's words finally made Wu Song and the others feel relieved, and they had a lot of food and drink. After drinking and eating, the three of them left the restaurant with a slight urge to leave. Seeing this, the followers did not dare to be negligent and quickly paid to follow. Even if they had no gains from following Sun Tu and the others over the past few days, they did not dare to be careless.

Just after noon when we left the restaurant, people, horses and animals were coming and going on the long street. This is where the Liao Kingdom was much stronger than the Song Dynasty. Their horses were much more than that of the Song Kingdom. Not to mention that the government in the army was not short of horses, even the people had too many people raising horses. At this time, the number of horses on the road was comparable to the number of horses that could be seen in a day in the busiest street market in Bianjing.

When he saw this scene, Sun Tu and Lu Da both showed yearning expressions. After looking at each other, they both sighed. If the Song Dynasty could control such a number of war horses, why would he worry about not being passively beaten in the battle with other countries?

"Let's go, let's go to the Sheep Horse Market in the west today. I heard that there are always people there who can pick a few thousand-mile horses. It's nothing special when we went to see them before. Let's try our luck today." Sun Tu said, then turned around at a crossroads and went west. Two or three miles ahead is the famous Sheep Horse Market in Youzhou City.

As the name suggests, this sheep and horse market is naturally a market for selling cattle, sheep and horses. As a former nomadic people, half of the Khitans are still living a nomadic life, including their emperors. Naturally, they can raise good cattle and horses, especially horses, which are unique in the world. However, due to the tension with the Song people, they dare not sell their own war horses in the south, so the horses are sold to Nanjing as far as the distance, and the price is naturally not too high.

Although Sun Tu and the others were also from Song, because of their identity as messengers, it was difficult for the Liao people to stop them from buying horses. As long as they were not too much, they turned a blind eye after buying several horses. Of course, the casual horses could not get into Sun Tu's eyes, so he didn't really buy horses when he went to the Sheep and Horse Market several times, so he just walked around and asked.

Today he was intrigued again, but it made the followers feel quite uncomfortable. As Liao people, they really couldn't understand why these envoys of the Song Kingdom liked to see the animals so much? But even though they were upset, their pace did not slow down. They were still tightly following Sun Tu and the others to the west, and soon entered the sheep and horse market separated by wooden fences.

The environment of the Sheep Horse Market is much worse than other markets in Youzhou. Not only is it very noisy because of the call of various animals, but the air is filled with a stinking smell, even the Liao people frowned, not to mention Wu Song and Lu Da who came from the south. However, Sun Tu was very excited at this time and kept making simple negotiations with vendors on the roadside, asking about the situation and prices of the horses. It seemed that he really planned to buy a few horses and go back.

Often, at this time, the few people who were following him would pay special attention to his words and actions, for fear that he would communicate with the Song people's secret spies under his nose. However, whether in person or after investigation, they found that there was no problem with the merchants who negotiated with Sun Tu. Not only were they not Song people's secret spies, but they were even Khitans.

After asking several families, Sun Tu's eyes suddenly shone. He stared at a snow-white horse in front of him, and said softly: "What a good horse!"

In fact, not only him, but also the Liao people behind him also showed praise, even greed. This kind of majestic body, extremely pure fur, and every move looks particularly powerful and beautiful, is really eye-catching, making people want to take it for themselves.

At this time, there were many people who were interested in this horse stall over there, including Han and Khitans. At this time, they were bargaining with the owner with yellow beards and purple beards. When Sun Tu and the others came over, they heard the man open his hands and shouted: "We have already said that this is a rare dragon horse breed on the grassland. Even the sweat-blooded horse horse in ancient times is not stronger than it, so it is not expensive at all for 5,000 guan. This horse is not boastful. Although we can't do it a thousand miles a day, it is absolutely no problem to run five or six hundred miles a day. If you buy it, you will definitely not regret it!"

Horses are indeed good horses, but the bidding was too high. Five thousand guan was not a small amount in the Song Dynasty, and in Liao Kingdom it became an astronomical existence for ordinary people. Even if people around him wanted to get this BMW again, they all retreated when they heard the number.

At this time, someone shouted: "Huangfu Duan, your horse is too high. Not to mention being in Nanjing, you may not be able to sell it even in Kyoto. You will still lower the price. We will buy it for 500 knots."

"Yes, I can pay 550 taels, then." Someone said with an increase in price: "Huangfu Duan, you should know that this horse is really not worth such a high price. If it is seen by the overlords in the city, they may rob you, and you will not even get a penny at that time."

These people started to make the whole scene more lively. Some people shouted, "Huangfu Duan, it's the first time you have come to Nanjing. We are not at ease with you. You said that this horse can travel hundreds of miles a day, but we have to see it with our own eyes. Why not do this? Let me try it. If I can travel more than 500 miles a day, I will buy this horse for 5,000 guan."

Huangfu Duan immediately waved his face: "Are you bullying us as a foreigner? If you really give the horse to you and you run away, we have no horse to catch up with you." He pointed out the other party's cunning intentions and immediately made everyone laugh. This person indeed regarded Huangfu Duan as a fool.

At this moment, a voice sounded from outside the crowd: "This is indeed a good horse that can be picked out in a thousand, and five thousand guan was also sold. That's it. I'm a thousand guan, I bought it!"

As soon as this said, the crowd, which was already a little noisy, suddenly became quiet. Everyone hurriedly looked back behind him, wanting to see what such a heroic person looked like. Then they saw Sun Tu and the other two standing there with smiles, looking up and down with joy.

Huangfu Duan was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that someone would really take out such a large amount of money to buy a horse. In fact, he did shout the price of this horse exceeds his own value, but he just didn't want to sell the horse at will, and at the same time it could attract more people's attention, because this horse was clearly a living sign for him.

In just two days, among the guests attracted by it, he had bought seven or eight horses from him, and his business was better than the surrounding companies. Although Huangfu Duan looked like a big and thick-sized man, in fact, in addition to his ability to raise horses, he was also very meticulous in doing business.

But now someone opened this mouthful, he had to continue and smiled and said, "This customer really wants to buy this horse for 5,000 guan? Let's talk about it first, our horse will not reduce the price..."

"Of course, if such a good horse is reduced, it would be too sorry for its noble origin." Sun Tu said, already standing up and down to the white horse, then looked up and down carefully, then nodded again: "It is indeed one of the few horses in the world. That's it, I'm sure I won't lose you in five thousand guan."

Huangfu Duan was also very happy when he heard this. If he wanted to use this horse as a signboard, it would be worth it to sell it for 5,000 guan. Moreover, if this deal really happened, he would become famous in Nanjing. Are you still afraid that no customers would come to visit him? So he immediately nodded and said, "Then thank the customers, this money..." As he said that, he looked at Sun Tu and the others with some confusion, looking at them, looking at people who could take out thousands of guan at any time.

"I was not prepared when I came out, so I don't have so much cash on me now. But don't worry, although I am from Song, I am the most honest and never regret what I promised you. So, you will send the horse to the Song Embassy Inn in the south of the city later, and then you will pay the money and the horses at the same time. How about it?" Sun Tu explained with a smile.

When they heard that he was a Song Dynasty man, the people around him showed strange expressions, both hostile and relieved. Because everyone knew that the Song Dynasty man was rich, it was the same as many countries in later generations that the Chinese aunts who traveled abroad were the best at spending money.

Huangfu Duan had no doubts at this time and quickly responded happily: "I'll make a decision. After the market is closed, the young man will send the horse to the inn."

"Um." Sun Tu nodded with satisfaction, and muttered: "With my wealth in the Song Dynasty, it is not difficult to buy horses from the entire Liao Kingdom in his year!" As soon as this said, the people around him changed color again, and at this time, a few cold snorted from a distance, and a loud voice rang out: "Slow down. Who asked you to sell my Liao horse to the Song people at will? How much does this horse cost? I have asked me!"

Before he finished speaking, more than a dozen guys dressed in evil servants with fleshy faces waved their steel knives, and rushed away the crowds around them after a few slashes. Then, two young men in wealthy and gorgeous robes were exposed. Both of them looked a little ugly, and their behavior was very arrogant. They swung the horse whip in their hands, almost hitting the two people who could not avoid them.
