Chapter 295 Why don't you go grab it?
Of course, sending Buqu to snatch the war horses of the Laiha tribe can only be thought about.

If someone is really sent to rob, I'm afraid they will give the Laiha tribe a reason, a reason that they can unite with several other tribes to sue Beiliang.

The current situation in Beiliang is weird, the adults in the court would not turn against Bian Kang just because of Jiang Yuanxi alone, not to mention that if this happened, it would be Jiang Yuanxi who made the mistake first.

First, why did you send people to snatch the war horses of the Laiha tribe?wild ambition!
Second, you don't have to accept the unreasonable demands made by the people from the Kazakh tribe. Why did you send people to snatch their war horses?The intention to provoke a war between the two countries is suspicious.

All in all, due to various reasons, even though Jiang Yuanxi really wanted to do something to the second prince who opened his mouth like a lion in front of him, he could only restrain his smile and asked the second prince and his party to sit down.

She glanced at her little brother.

Jiang Bojin immediately understood, and said with a smile, "The second prince just said that he wants to buy your war horses for us? I wonder how many war horses the second prince can sell us?"

Seeing that it wasn't Jiang Yuanxi who came forward to discuss the purchase with him, the second prince felt that he had been insulted. He was the second prince of a large tribe, and Jiang Yuanxi was only a seventh-rank official. It's really unreasonable to send him away!

The second prince was about to get angry, when someone pulled the hem of his clothes lightly behind him, he choked with anger, and immediately restrained himself.

Jiang Yuanxi saw the middle-aged man withdraw his hand without a trace, his eyes flashed.

The second prince held back his anger, the smile on his face had long since disappeared, and he said coldly: "A hundred."

There was a sense of condescension in his tone, facing the Beiliang people who didn't know how to raise war horses, the second prince felt that he really had the confidence to look down on them.

Jiang Bojin chuckled, and said slowly: "The second prince is sending beggars away, second prince, please forgive us for our poor hospitality, please go back."

The arrogance in the eyes of the second prince froze immediately. He couldn't believe that he had heard the order to drive away guests. He didn't even look at Jiang Bojin, but instead looked directly at Jiang Yuanxi, "Magistrate, is this how you treat guests? You don't want it." I was missed by these irrelevant people."

Jiang Yuanxi raised his eyelids, "What the second prince said is very true."

The second prince thought that Jiang Yuanxi was going to punish the person who spoke rudely to him, and was looking at Jiang Bojin with a sneer, when Jiang Yuanxi raised his voice and said: "Come on, please let the second prince and his party go out."

The second prince was full of disbelief, and his eyes widened.

Jiang Boyong sneered in his heart, has the Kang people here never seen the world?
In front of their aristocratic family, where does the confidence come from, to dare to look down on them?

Soon there were footsteps outside the door, and two servants appeared and said politely: "Guests, please follow me out."

The second prince couldn't bear it any longer, his face darkened, and he asked in a deep voice, "Master County Magistrate, what do you mean?"

Jiang Yuanxi glanced at him lazily, "Didn't I just say that, you are right, this is my way of hospitality, so please go back."

Whoever takes the initiative first will be weaker.

Even though she wanted Bian Kang's war horse very much, she would not show it on the surface. What's more, Bian Kang people sent it to her door by herself. No matter how you look at it, Bian Kang people are more concerned about this purchase.

No matter how thick-skinned the second prince is, he can't stay in front of this kind of expulsion order again and again, let alone he himself thinks that he has a noble background, how can he bear to be humiliated like this, and he wants to stand up right away to make people angry And leave.

The hand was held down, and a mellow voice sounded, "Master County Magistrate, we have no intention of humiliating you in the slightest when we come to the Ha Tribe. Please forgive me. We are here this time to sincerely seek cooperation."

It was a middle-aged man who had been by the second prince's side all the time. Seeing Jiang Yuanxi looking at him, he stroked his chest and introduced himself: "Master County Magistrate, my name is Chongshan."

He only said his name and did not reveal anything else.

The second prince actually held back his anger once again after he finished speaking. Jiang Yuanxi was not the only one who noticed this.

Because of Chongshan's sincere attitude, Jiang Yuanxi and Jiang Boxin didn't really want to drive the second prince and his party out. After expressing their intentions, Jiang Yuanxi walked down the steps.

Seeing the two servants retreating again, Chong Shan looked at Jiang Yuanxi and asked, "I wonder how many war horses the county magistrate wants to buy?"

Jiang Yuanxi asked instead, "I don't know how many war horses you have in the Ha tribe?"

Chong Shan smiled, "Master County Magistrate, you can't afford all the war horses in our tribe."

Jiang Yuanxi nodded in agreement after hearing this, "You're right, if it's what the second prince said, I really can't afford all the war horses in your tribe."

Jiang Bojin went on to say: "A horse needs to be exchanged for five stones of grain and one stone of coarse salt. Why don't you grab it? Just send someone to us to grab it. Why come to our door pretending to do business with us?"

According to the current yield per mu in Danyang County, two stones per mu is a year’s ration for an adult man. Of course, this is the calculation of having a full stomach for every meal. The ration is only one stone.

Five shi of grain is equivalent to a year's ration for two and a half men, not to mention one shi of coarse salt.

Biankang is a nomadic people, and there is a great shortage of salt. Salt has always been more expensive than gold. Otherwise, there would be no Biankang people taking a dozen furs to exchange a few taels of coarse salt with the people of Danyang County.

A stone of coarse salt can meet the needs of hundreds of people for a year.

The Laiha tribe has a big face.

It's no wonder that Jiang Bojin is so ruthless and direct.

Ever since Chong Shan spoke out, the Second Crown Prince had kept his mouth shut. Chong Shan smiled and said, "It's a business, how can we make a final decision? Since the magistrate thinks our asking price is too high, what price will the magistrate give? "

Jiang Bojin opened his mouth and came, "One war horse, one stone of grain."

Chong Shan waited for a while, "It's gone?"

Jiang Bojin picked up the teacup and took a sip, "It's gone."

The second prince almost couldn't bear it anymore. Although he knew that people in Beiliang would bargain when doing business, this cut was too hard, right?
Chongshan stopped the second prince again, he smiled and sighed, "It seems that our trip is doomed to return in vain, the county magistrate doesn't want to discuss business with us in the Ha tribe, if that's the case, then leave, Thank you for your hospitality, the tea is delicious."

Chong Shan got up slowly, and the others followed him, nodded politely to Jiang Yuanxi, turned around and prepared to leave.

After only taking a step, Jiang Yuanxi's voice sounded, "If I know on a pilgrimage that the Laiha Tribe raises thousands of war horses, how would I feel?"

The pace of Chongshan and the others stopped suddenly.
