    After the caravan arrived at the settlement, Chai Shao immediately asked a translator who could speak Turkic to inquire about the name of the settlement and whether there were any chariot and horse shops for people to live in.

    After waiting for an hour, Fan Ze, who knew Turkic, ran back.

    "Reporting to Mr. Chai, this residential area is called Qingcaotan Residential Area. The residential area here is controlled by a family named Yelu, and their family has the final say on everything in this place.

    In addition, how can there be any real carriage and horse shop here?  However, there are still tents that the Turkic people are idle.

    When I came back, a Turkic man named Zambaixi expressed his willingness to rent two vacant tents to us and provide us with board and lodging.

    Mr. Chai, what do you think about this matter?  "

    Chai Shao listened and looked at Duan Wuji.

    "Brother, what do you think about this?"

    Duan Wuji thought for a while and said: "Where's the man named Zhamboxi? Let's ask him to come and discuss the price. We can't just agree to Xili Lake, so as not to cause unclear troubles in the future."

    The translator who understands Turkic laughed and said: "Brother Wuji, you are really thoughtful, I will find him for you."

    "Well, there's no need to look for it, I'm here by myself."

    I saw a Turkic man in his fifties speaking half-baked Chinese.

    Duan Wuji smiled and said: "Old man, so you know Chinese? Then this matter will be easy to handle.

    Old man, come, come, come, let's discuss the rent of this tent, so as not to be unclear in the future.  "

    The old man came to Duan Wuji with a smile.

    "Young man, I have been to your Han area 20 years ago, and I also know something about your local customs.

    After staying for a long time, I also learned a few words of Chinese.  Young man, go, get the goods to my house, and I will help you with these goods.  "

    Duan Wuji smiled slightly after hearing this.

    "Okay, old man. But, let's talk about the rent for going to your house to avoid any unpleasant things in the future."

    "The rent is easy to talk about. My two tents have been idle all the time. You don't rent them and no one lives in them. I just went to chat with the old man and save me from being lonely.

    Are you not cloth dealers?  How about this, no matter how long you stay with me, just leave me five pieces of cloth when you leave.  As for food?  You just eat with me, and you don¡¯t have to pay for food. Anyway, old man, I killed twelve cows, nine horses, and thirty or forty sheep this year. You can¡¯t eat all these things.  "

    Duan Wuji smiled and said: "Since the old man said so, well, let's drive the carriage to the old man's house."

    Duan Wuji whispered to the translator who understood Turkic: "Take four people there and see if you can buy a few barrels of wine back."

    After hearing this, Chai Shao immediately took out a piece of silver and handed it over.

    "Hey, buddy, let's see if I can buy some other snacks to take back with me."

    The old Turkic man laughed and said: "The tent selling wine is in a yellow tent in the central area. I will lead you there, otherwise you may not be able to find it in a short time."

    With that said, the Turkic led a few people to buy wine.

    Duan Wuji pulled Chai Shao to his side and whispered: "Brother Chai, remember, the price of our cloth will be doubled, brother Tieniu, do you remember this?"

    The two were taken aback for a moment.

    "Wuji, why is that?"

    After hearing this, Duan Wuji smiled coldly and said: "This is the way of doing business. Didn't we spend a thousand eight taels of silver for this little cloth, then let's say that we spent twenty thousand silver, did you hear clearly?"

    Everyone nodded after hearing this.

    "Well, we have all remembered this matter. I guarantee that there will be no mistakes."

    After a short time, several people came back carrying several barrels of wine. Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Old man, you should lead the way ahead. Let's go."

    The old man led the group of people straight to a clearing in the northwest corner.  At a place more than a hundred miles away from the residential area, five tents surrounded a two-acre yard, and the owner of the carriage drove the carriage into it.

    The owner of the carriage frantically unloaded the horse and tied it to a stake in the yard.

    Duan Wuji asked with a smile: "Old man, do you have any fodder here? Get some to feed these horses."

    "Well, yes,What?  Get it back to the cultivated land.  After all, this horse is not as strong as a horse egg. We sell it back and just buy it. What's the use of that horse?  "

    The old Turkic man laughed loudly.

    "Since you want that dishonest bastard, this matter will be easy to deal with. I will tell the folks tomorrow to see who has that fast running bastard. I will collect a few hundred for you."  Match it."

    Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Old man, how much is a horse on the grassland now?"

    "How much? Every good horse is worth eight or nine taels of silver."

    Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Old man, how about this, I will give you ten taels of silver for each horse, and the extra silver will be yours.

    As the saying goes, do you do business? After all, you get three cents of the money in business. This is called earning money together. Old man, do you think so?  "

    The old Turkic man laughed loudly.

    "Young man, you are really sensible. Since you said this, then don't worry about the rest. If your goods are good, I can get you hundreds of horse eggs. It's not a problem.

    Well, tomorrow I will give you a run about it.  "

    Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Okay, then I'll leave it to you, but, old man, listen carefully, we only want fast horses, and we don't want slow ones."

    "Well, I know this. When I picked out the horses, I made your conditions clear to them.

    If you think any horse is bad, can't you pick them out?

    Don't worry, old man, I have seen countless horses, and I can see which horses run fast at a glance. Let these horses pass me the next day, as long as I like them, the horses will definitely be good.  "

    Duan Wuji said with a smile: "Brother Tieniu, first get a couple of tea leaves from our car, let the old man try it first."

    After hearing this, Tieniu ran out immediately. After a short time, Tieniu came in with two bags of tea.

    Duan Wuji handed the tea to Zambaixi.

    "Old man, this is a gift from me, how about you try this tea first?"

    "How dare I accept such an expensive gift from you? It's impossible."

    Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Old man, you are too polite, isn't it just three or five taels of silver? What's the big deal?

    Besides, don't we think we can still make deals in the future?  How can it be so discreet?

    Old man, if you are willing to make us this friend, then you can put him away.  "

    The old man put away the tea leaves with a smile.

    Duan Wuji and Chai Shao looked at each other, then stood up.

    "Old man, take a rest, we should also go to rest, see you tomorrow."

    With that said, the three of them stood up.  Withdrew from Zambaixi's rush.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
