The horse pulling the carriage does not need to go to the battlefield to fight. It is enough to be optimistic about the first two conditions, and it does not need to be tough and untamed.
In daily life, horses have to deal with people frequently, and their temperament must be gentle.
Especially Wan Wan, she is such a small one, what if she accidentally makes the horse unhappy and gets hurt?
Su Wan's face was hidden under the gauze, and her expression could not be seen clearly, but she had no idea what the third brother was thinking at this time.
She couldn't help. She didn't know what to do and could only watch from the side.
Su Chen quickly picked two horses and asked the horse dealer for the price:
"Just these two horses, how much money?"
"Brother, you have a good eye. I am an expert. You have taken your fancy to the two strongest and gentlest horses. Take fifty taels and take them away. They are all raised from pure food in my family. They are the best for pulling carts and running horses."
The horse dealer made a five sign. To be honest, this horse was a little expensive, but Su Chen was indeed satisfied.
"Can it be less?" Su Chen tried to bargain.
"Brother, I don't want to bargain. You are an expert and know that I am a good horse and it is worth the price."
He also had full confidence that he dared to shout so high.
Su Chen had no choice but to turn around and look at Su Wan to see what her opinion was.
Su Wan nodded slightly and took out a fifty-tael silver note and gave it to him.
After a while, I had to spend money to set up two pallets, which were specially used to pull goods. There was no need to use a sedan chair.
If you are afraid of bad weather, just lay down a few layers of tarpaulin to make it waterproof.
Su Chen gave the banknote to the horse dealer. The horse dealer happily put it in his arms, then untied the rope and handed it to Su Chen.
Su Chen went up to stroke their manes one by one, and established a good relationship with them. He also untied a small bag on his waist, which contained horse feeding grains that he had specially brought out.
Su Wan watched him pour grain into his hands to feed the horses. He found it interesting and wanted to try it himself.
"Third brother, can I try?" Su Wan requested.
When Su Chen heard this, he couldn't bear to refuse her, so he called her over:
"Okay, come here!"
Su Wan came over happily, then spread her hands and asked Su Chen to pour the food to her.
The grain had just been poured into her hand, but before it reached the horse's mouth, one of them came up to eat it and snorted. Su Wan was a little scared and trembled.
Seeing this, Su Chen gently comforted:
"Don't be afraid, Third Brother is here, they are very docile."
Su Wan nodded and continued feeding boldly.
In fact, she is also a little girl who has just graduated from college in her soul. She is still curious about many things and has a girlish heart.
After feeding the horse, his hands were stained with the horse's saliva. Seeing this, the horse dealer took out his water bottle.
"Miss, wash your hands with my water."
"That's okay. If I use it, won't you have to drink it?" Su Wan saw that it was water in a kettle and was a little embarrassed to use it.
"It's okay. It's almost noon. I'll go home for dinner later. Use it. You're welcome."
The horse dealer was also kind-hearted, so Su Wan was not polite and thanked him several times.
After washing his hands, Su Wan casually shook the water in one hand and stretched out one arm.
Su Wan looked up in confusion, it was the third brother.
I saw him smiling and saying:
"Wipe this!"
Su Wan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth at the favor from his elder brother, and then he rudely wiped his hands with his third brother's sleeves.
After that, the two brothers and sisters took the horse and prepared to leave the black market.
But just a few steps away, a commotion broke out on the street. Among the crowd, a ragged girl ran towards them with bare feet, looking behind her as she ran.
There were several strong men chasing her.
"Stop, you damn girl. Look, if I catch you, I won't beat you to death."
When the girl heard the sound, she was frightened and fell to the ground, just in front of Su Wan and Su Chen.
Neither brother nor sister reacted. They saw that the girl had touched Su Chen's toes with her hands. She looked at him with tears in her eyes and prayed:
"Please, help me..."
Su Chen frowned and was at a loss.
Su Wan knew it was inconvenient for him, so he bent down to help her. The girl's clothes were so dirty that the color could not be seen clearly.
But she didn't dislike them either. They were all women, so there was nothing to dislike.
Her face was also dirty and her face could not be seen clearly, but she had a pair of amber eyes, which were very distinctive.
The girl's feet were covered with wounds, and they were sprained just now. She tried hard to get up, but she couldn't.
The strong men had already caught up, rolling up their sleeves and cursing.
"You bitch, run away. You two had better stay out of your own business." They looked at Su Wan and Su Chen fiercely.
Su Chen saw that the girl had no strength, so he could only help. He took her arm with one hand and lifted her up to stand up.
When the girl saw those strong men, she subconsciously hid behind Su Wan and grabbed her sleeves tightly.
"Does she owe you money or has a grudge against you? As for forcing a weak woman to do this?" Su Wan was not afraid, but asked in turn.
"It's none of your business. We bought this girl. You'd better stay out of other people's business. Otherwise, don't blame the brothers for being rude and beating you too." The strong man in the lead stared at Su Wan with an unkind expression.
Su Chen frowned in displeasure. There were already many people watching and pointing.
"You have no law and you are buying and selling people in broad daylight. Do you believe I will send you to jail?"
In Jin State, private buying and selling of people is not allowed, unless the person is a slave and the deed of sale belongs to you. If he commits a serious crime, you have the right to execute him directly, but if he is sold, he must be sent back to Yahang. deal with.
A slave who made a mistake could be punished by being sent back to Yahang, sold to Qinlou and Chuguan, or even made a rough messenger, carrying night fragrance, and punished according to the severity.
Anyway, you can't trade privately.
"We bought her, and we have the final say on what to do with her. What's wrong with her?" The leader said confidently.
"I'm not a slave. They want to sell me to a brothel. Please save me!" the girl cried and shouted behind Su Wan.
"Shut up, you bitch!" the leader yelled angrily, and the girl trembled in fright.
"Why are you so mean? She said she was not a slave, not a slave. Since you bought her, do you have proof of her sale?
If not, then it is illegal to buy and sell people privately, which is against the law. "
Su Wan can be sure that what this girl said is true.
Because she discovered that although this girl was covered in scars, her intact skin was very delicate and soft. She looked like she was pampered, and the clothes on her body were made of very good materials. Although she didn’t know much, she was able to distinguish between good and bad. How could this happen? It's a slave.
"That's right, come out and take a look at the deed of betrayal."
The onlookers around him had already begun to boo.
Several strong men clenched their fists tightly and looked at Su Wan with gritted teeth, trying their best to endure and not wanting to cause trouble.
"How can I carry the deed of betrayal with me anytime and anywhere? Why don't you follow me back and take a look?"
These people have already had evil thoughts.
