199 Buying A Horse

For some reason, her attention was drawn to the horse. She walked over and stood in front of it.

The horse shook its head slightly and slowly raised its head to look at her. She directly shouted to the side, “Boss, I’m taking this horse!”

A man immediately walked over and said to Mo Ruyue with a face full of smiles, “This lady has good eyes! You picked the best horse we have here! Look at this body, these teeth! You won’t be able to find another horse with this color of fur even if you search the entire place.”

Mo Ruyue didn’t say anything. She just glanced at him and waited for him to say the price.

“Uh, haha, you see, I was so happy that I said a few more words. This horse can be considered to have followed me for some days. Now that this lady has such good eyes and has chosen it, then I will give you a cheaper price. You can take it in eighty silver taels. ”

As he spoke, he rubbed his hands and looked at Mo Ruyue with greed.

“Eighty? I’ll give you one more chance. How much?”

Mo Ruyue smiled faintly and asked again.

“What, this horse stance is not worth eighty?”

The smile on the man’s face froze, and his tone changed.

“This horse is just a little too skinny. Take it back home and recuperate for a few days, and the fat will be back. At that time, it can be sold for more than a hundred taels of silver. I saw that you have good eyes and specially discounted the price to eighty taels. You think it’s too expensive?”

“Then why don’t you feed it until it’s fat and sell it for more silver?”

Mo Ruyue’s words made the horse merchant choke and fall to the ground. Then, she said, “Although your horse is tall, it’s only half the weight of a normal horse. It’s covered in mustard moss and is almost bald. How long has it been since the horseshoe was repaired? How long has it been since the last time you farmed horses?”

“You want eighty taels of silver for a horse like this? Do you think I’m a woman who doesn’t know anything and is easy to bully?”

After she said this, the smile on the horse merchant’s face disappeared completely. He now realized that he had really underestimated this woman. She was actually a person who knew horses very well. She had almost told him that the horse would not live for long.

“You, don’t talk nonsense. What does a woman know about horses? You even said it so logically, who are you trying to scare? However, I am a kind person. How about this, fifty taels of silver, no less.”

The horse dealer tentatively offered another number and carefully observed Mo Ruyue’s reaction.

“If I don’t buy this horse, it won’t live for more than three days. You want me to buy a dying horse for fifty taels? So the fraud in the county was already so blatant? Anyway, it’s not the first time I’ve entered the government to fight a lawsuit, so I don’t mind asking the first master about the situation.”

At this moment, a man came over and tugged at the horse dealer’s sleeve. He whispered in his ear, “Old Wang, don’t you know who this woman is? The famous Lady Qin, you can’t afford to offend her. ”

“What? She’s Lady Qin? Why am I so unlucky! And I just had to meet her!”

The horse merchant looked at Mo Ruyue in shock. He didn’t expect her to be the Lady Qin who had caused a sensation in the entire county and brought endless gossip to everyone.

She was really not to be trifled with. Anyone who provoked her would not have a good end. It was said that her recent “great achievement” was to send her mother-in-law to prison.

He actually dared to extort money from such a person, he was simply out of his mind!

They thought that they were whispering very softly, but they didn’t know that Mo Ruyue had heard everything.

She was now famous outside. No matter if it was good or bad, she could still have some “deterrent” effect.

The horse dealer hesitated for a moment. In the end, he looked at Mo Ruyue and gritted his teeth. “Then tell me, how much do you want to pay for this horse?”

“If I don’t buy this horse, it’ll be dead for sure. Twenty silver taels for this horse and the short brown horse beside it.”

Mo Ruyue pointed at the horse next door.

It was a decent horse, suitable for going to the fields and pulling carriages. It could also be used as a mount. It was not particularly outstanding, but it was not bad either. The price of twenty taels of silver was very suitable.

“You want two horses for twenty taels? Why don’t you just rob someone!”

The horse dealer couldn’t take it anymore. Even if the black horse was dead, it was still a horse! She actually wanted to take it away without plucking a single hair? There was no such logic in the world!

“This brown horse of yours can only be sold for 15 silver taels at most at other vendors. I’m giving you 20 silver taels, so I’ve already spent 5 silver taels to buy a dying horse? No justice? I’d like to ask, if five taels of silver can’t buy a dying horse, what kind of heavenly law is this? Don’t tell me you want to sell this horse for meat? Then you’re really black-hearted.”

Mo Ruyue’s words once again left the horse dealer speechless. All the words he could say were blocked by her. It was only at this moment that he truly understood why this woman was not to be trifled with.

It was because all the methods that he could think of that would benefit him had been blocked by her. They would not work at all.

She walked her own path, but she could make him have no way to go. This woman was really ruthless!

The man next to him tugged at him again, using his eyes to signal him to quickly agree and send the God of plague away first. At least he wouldn’t lose more.

In the end, the horse dealer could only compromise.

He had originally planned to sell the horse after it died. The meat, however, could not be sold for five taels of silver. If it was found to be sick horse meat, he would be in big trouble.

Now that he could get rid of this sick horse and sell another horse, although he would earn less, he could only accept his bad luck for meeting such a difficult master.

“Alright, twenty taels it is then. I’ll take it as my bad luck. I’ll pay and you can take the horse away!

Mo Ruyue didn’t bother to argue with him over the complaints in his words. She happily counted two ten tael silver notes and handed them over. Then, she went to get the horse.

“Aiya, if I had known that you were so willing to spend money, I would have come to see my horse! Although I bought two horses for twenty taels, the black one won’t live for long. Isn’t this a waste of money?”

The other horse dealers, who had been watching the commotion for a long time, saw that the business was really done and immediately became a little jealous. Although it was only twenty silver taels, it was still money!

They might not even be able to sell a horse even if they stayed here for ten days to half a month. Now, this guy had sold two horses and disposed of a sick horse. It simply made them die of jealousy.

“If you want to blame someone, blame your horse for not being good. Otherwise, why would people buy my horse and not yours? Don’t say that the grapes are sour just because you can’t eat them!”

The horse dealer was already panicking from selling two horses for 20 taels, and now that he was being mocked, he almost exploded.

Mo Ruyue didn’t care what they were talking about. She went to lead the brown horse and then returned to the black horse. She gently stroked its nose and said in a low voice, “Now, come home with me.”

Mo Ruyue bought two horses at once and the news spread throughout the village. However, the thing that people talked about the most was not that she bought two horses at once, but that she actually bought a sick horse that didn’t have many days left to live.
