"Brother Tang, Sizhe, what I'm curious about is, why did Mr. Zhuye appear here?" Zhen Sifei said.

"Do you know him?" Tang Dalong asked.

"Yes, I fought with Commander Zhang before when he went to watch the Japanese spring exercises. He was the captain of the third team of the Japanese special operations team."

"Zhen Sifei, your kung fu has improved a lot now. Even Mr. Zhuye is no match for you." Li Sizhe said.

"It's like a blind cat meets a dead mouse." Zhen Sifei said.

"Yes, quite modest!"

"On the racecourse, the man who kicked my horse was a Mongolian. His leg skills were not simple. He looked like a soldier." Tang Dalong said.

"According to what you said, I think the horse racing competition they held this year has ulterior motives. Even Mongolian soldiers and members of the Japanese special operations team participated." Li Sizhe said.

"I found that the riding whip used by Zhuye is different from ordinary riding whips. The tip of the whip is particularly long, and its toughness is also very good." Xu Tianjiao said.

"If my guess is correct, this should be a riding crop specially used by the Japanese military." Li Sizhe said.

"Yes, I spent some time in their Japanese military camp and saw this kind of riding whip." Zhen Sifei said.

"This is a mixed place, a place of right and wrong. You can't stay for a long time. Let's do this. The purpose of our trip is to buy Mongolian thoroughbred horses. Now that we have found such good horses, in order to avoid unnecessary complications, we may not participate in tomorrow's finals. Let's buy all the horses as soon as possible and return to the military camp." Tang Dalong said.

"Okay, I'll do as you say." Upon hearing this, everyone felt that what Tang Dalong said made sense and nodded in agreement.

The next morning, they came to the horse market and found the old horse dealer.

"Boss, do you still sell horses like this here?" Tang Dalong asked, pointing to the horse he was holding.

"Yes, there are as many as you want."

"That's great, we want five hundred horses." Tang Dalong said.

"What? How much did you say?" The old horse dealer thought he heard wrongly.

"Five hundred horses."

The old horse dealer looked at the five of them carefully up and down with a different look.

"Boss, don't worry. As soon as the goods arrive, you will pay immediately. You don't have to worry about this."

"There are horses, but there are not so many in a hurry. They have to be transferred from several horse farms." The old horse dealer regained his expression.

"So, what's the fastest time you need?"

"The fastest is tomorrow at this time."

"Okay, then let's settle this matter." Tang Dalong said.

"Each horse costs four hundred taels of silver, so five hundred horses cost two hundred thousand taels of silver. You have to pay at least a deposit of ten thousand taels of silver." The old horse dealer said as he dialed the abacus.

"Okay, we will give you ten thousand taels of silver now."

Both parties completed the formalities.

"Okay, you can just pick up the horse tomorrow morning."

"Please prepare 500 more saddles for us. Don't worry, we will definitely miss your money." Tang Dalong said.

"That's easy to say," said the old horse dealer.

The five of them left the horse market, and Xu Tianjiao said: "Since there is still one day left, let's go to the competition."

"Okay." Tang Dalong also agreed.

"However, based on my intuition, I always felt that something was wrong with the horse seller." Xu Tianjiao said.

"There's something wrong with him. He suddenly received such a big order. He couldn't even calculate how much money he could earn at once. He was so excited." Li Sijie said.

"Maybe, I wish I was overthinking it."
