    Liu Qing looked at Qin Lang with envy.  Carriages were not something ordinary people could afford.  Even if you can afford it, you may not be able to afford it.

    Horses are inherently strategic resources, and the best horses are controlled by the imperial court, and trading is strictly prohibited.

    Only the elderly or sick are allowed to engage in private transactions.

    Even this is not cheap. An old horse costs tens of dollars at least, or even more than a hundred dollars for a better one. A BMW is even more expensive!  At least Qian Guan's base may not be encountered yet.

    "Hmm. It's not convenient for me to go out to do errands."

    "For the convenience of going out, it is better to buy cattle. Not only is it cheap, but it can also be used for farming. Horses are too delicate and difficult to feed."

    "It's okay, let's go take a look first. We'll talk about it if we find something suitable."

    Seeing his persistence, Liu Qing reluctantly took him to the horse market.

    There are many kinds of animals in the horse market, but there are very few horses.

    The two of them walked around and finally saw a horse seller. The horse was not very energetic yet.

    "How to sell this horse?"

    "Forty taels of silver."

    The boss was all smiles.

    "Ma Laoer, you are a farm slave! It looks like your horse is sick at first glance, how dare you ask for so much?"

    When Liu Qing heard this, he became furious and started to curse.

    "Brother Liu, there's nothing we can do about it." Ma Laoer said with a bitter face.

    "This is not an ordinary horse! This is a war horse that retreated from the battlefield. The forty taels are the lowest price given to you for your sake."

    "fart!"

    Liu Qing stared at Ma Laoer.

    "How worn out are the horse's hooves? See for yourself, they are all suppurated. Not to mention that they can be cured, even if they are cured, they are still crippled and cannot run at all!"

    "Lang Geer, you can't have this horse. When I ask someone to help you find out, we would rather buy an ordinary old horse than this one that is obviously about to die. Isn't this just throwing money into the water?"

    "No, brother Liu, it can be cured. Although it can't run after being cured, it's still good to take a shortcut. Besides, this horse is in its prime"

    "Fart! You're such a black-hearted thing, can you sell it for forty taels if you can cure it?"

    Qin Lang listened to the conversation between the two and squatted down to look at the horse carefully.

    The horse has a tuft of white hair on its head that is as bright as lightning, its bones are strong, and its fur is a little dull.  He seemed to know that he was useless, his eyes showed a trace of sadness, and he looked quite human.

    The horse¡¯s hooves were badly worn and swollen in some places, with yellow pus oozing out.

    Others may not be able to cure it, but it doesn't matter to him.  There are medicines for treating trauma and anti-inflammation in the system. Apply the medicine to the horse and he will be full of energy in no time.

    "how much does it lowest?"

    After reading it once, I had a good idea, and stood up and asked Ma Laoer.

    "Lang Geer, you really can't buy this horse! This bastard Ma Lao Er is trying to trick you!"

    Liu Qing became anxious upon hearing this.

    "It's okay, Uncle Liu, I know what's going on."

    Behind Ma Laoer¡¯s back, he winked at him and asked him to calm down.

    "That's it. Brother Liu brought it to you. I don't want much, so you can take it away for thirty-five taels!"

    "fart!"

    Although Qin Lang winked at him and didn't understand why he insisted on buying this horse, since Lang Geer had already made the decision, he couldn't stop him.

    But when I heard the quote from Ma Lao Er, I became popular again.

    "Twenty taels are not worth it!"

    Qin Lang almost laughed. He had never noticed that Liu Qing had such a hot temper before.

    But Liu Qing was helping him lower the price, so he naturally wouldn't say much and just looked at the two blushing and thick-necked people with a smile.

    "My brother Liu, just do it and say less. You have to let me earn some money no matter what."

    Ma Laoer was angry but didn't dare to express it, so he said with a sad face.

    If anyone else dared to ruin his business like this, he would have punched him.

    "Then twenty taels!"

    Ma Laoer gritted his teeth and looked at Liu Qing, who was about to scold again, with a bitter look on his face.

    "Brother Liu, twenty taels is my cost price! I really haven't made a penny, so you can't make me lose money, right? I won't sell it for less than twenty taels!"

    "Okay. Just twenty taels, I bought it."

    Seeing the firm look on Ma Laoer's face, he understood that this was the lowest price, so Qin Lang spoke quickly.

    ¡°??Brother, youah!  Forget it.  "

    Liu Qing sighed and shook his head helplessly.  He turned around and stared at Ma Lao Er.

    ¡°If you give me another pair of saddles and stirrups, I won¡¯t let Lange suffer any loss.¡±

    Ma Laoer nodded helplessly.

    ¡°In this business, I pretend to be a grandson and still have to give things away. If it were someone else, he would have scolded me a long time ago.

    But this Liu Qing is a distant relative of his family, and he is famous for his hot temper.  When I was a child, I was often punished by him. I would be frightened when I saw him. How could I dare to disagree?

    The two paid the money and led the horse out of the horse market.

    "Lang Geer, why do you have to buy this horse? You can't spend it like this if you have money."

    "Uncle Liu, if you can cure this horse and restore it to its former glory, do you still think the money is not worth it?"

    "Of course it is worth it if it can be cured, but this is simply impossible! If it could be cured, the owner of this horse would not sell it and let others take advantage of it."

    Liu Qing didn¡¯t believe that the horse could be cured.

    "Uncle Liu, I can cure it!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
