"Why did you buy it? It can't be tamed at all, and it might hurt someone if you let it out.

Moreover, this horse has a very bad temper and has been hungry for several days. It is possible that it will starve to death.

You can only kill and eat the meat if you buy it, so why bother? "

Lu Jiao didn't take Ma Shang's earnest advice seriously at all.

Ordinary horse training only requires food, whips and daggers, but she is different, she can also use mental power.

Apart from the alien plant that had tortured her for years in her previous life, she had never encountered any animals or plants that could not be tamed.

"Just tell me how much you're willing to sell it for!"

The horse dealer gritted his teeth, and because of his love for the animal, he did not ask for an exorbitant price: "If you can tame it, you can take it away for two hundred taels.

But if not, I can’t sell it to you!”

"make a deal!"

Lu Jiao was eager to try, but Liu the Shorty was very worried.

"Sir, it takes five strong men to completely restrain that horse, don't hurt your little arms and legs!"

"What are you afraid of? Just stand aside and don't get in the way!"

The horse dealer waved his hand and asked his men to retreat to the edge of the yard. But they were always ready to rush forward to rescue Lu Jiao if he angered the black horse.

Lu Jiao slowly walked to the center of the yard, and an invisible giant net of mental power extended out in all directions with her as the center.

People couldn't see it, but horses, being sensitive and intelligent animals, soon felt the subtle sense of oppression.

It paced frequently on the spot, snorting constantly, and its ears sometimes stood upright and sometimes lay flat on its back.

Lu Jiao's gradually approaching figure was reflected in his eyes, which were as dark as black plums.

Lu Jiao stretched out a hand, placed it flat in front of him, and slowly approached the black horse.

At the same time, a mental force invaded the black horse's brain.

If the giant net is a threat, then this strand of mental power is communication and comfort.

The black horse gradually relaxed, and even slowly lowered its head, nudging Lu Jiao with its slightly dry nose, as if allowing her to touch him.

The people around looked at each other and began to doubt their lives.

Is it so easy to train a horse?

So what have they learned over the years?

Of course, Lu Jiao also took advantage of the horse dealer.

This dark horse was already on the brink of collapse, and faced with Lu Jiao's "carrot and stick" approach, it naturally had to be defeated.

Lu Jiao stroked the tuft of white hair on its forehead and asked with a smile: "Your four hooves are all white, just like dark clouds stepping on snow. How about calling you Stepping on Snow from now on?"

Taxue neighed softly to show his satisfaction, but his tail was still wagging around randomly.

Lu Jiao chuckled: "It seems you are hungry."

She turned to look at the horse dealer: "How is it? Am I considered tamed?"

The horse dealer was stunned, obviously in disbelief. Could the horse have calmed down so quickly?

He winked at the horse trainer, who understood and moved closer to Taxue.

He hadn't taken a few steps when he was discovered by Taxue.

It wrinkled its nose, exhaled heavily, and even turned its body half a circle, as if this could get it further away from the person it hated.

There was a hint of danger and excitement in Lu Jiao's eyes: "Why, do you want to regret it?"

“No, no, no!” Ma Shang immediately denied it.

He just wanted to test whether the boy was just relying on luck, so there was no way he would regret it!

If it gets out that he’s got the reputation of “Out-of-City Horse”, he’ll be in trouble!

Hearing his answer, Lu Jiao was obviously a little disappointed, as he thought he could get more goods!

"Okay, let's feed Taxue some good fodder first. The child is getting skinny from hunger!"

Lu Jiao stroked Taxue's big head lovingly and also injected a trace of wood-related supernatural power into it.

It's impossible to cure it immediately, but it's enough to relieve most of the pain.

Poor Wu Mao, he had just returned from the yamen when he heard that Lu Jiao had bought another horse.

But he was only depressed for a moment.

Even if he did not participate in horse selection and price negotiation, he was still needed to go and get the contract.

Although the commission is not that much, a horse is much more expensive than a mule. After two trips, you can earn at least ten taels of silver.

He doesn't mind running around and lying down too much. Please do this sweet labor several times every day!

However, such a wonderful thing will not happen often. After Lu Jiao tamed Taxue, he lost interest in other horses.

After Taxue had finished eating half of the feed in the horse trough, Wu Mao came back in a hurry and presented two freshly baked deeds.

Lu Jiao glanced at the content and didn't find anything wrong, so he handed the deed of the mule cart to Liu the Shorty.

"Keep this. With this, you'll have confidence if anything happens while I'm away."

Lu Jiao took out another 250 taels of silver notes and a 5-tael silver ingot.

Two hundred and forty taels of silver were for the mule cart and horses, and fifteen taels of silver were for Wu Mao's commission.

Wu Mao held up the banknotes and asked, "So many!"

Lu Jiao was in a good mood after buying his beloved horse. He couldn't help but tease, "You think it's too much? Why don't you give me another five taels?"

"That won't do!" Wu Mao quickly put the silver back into his arms, "Mr. Jiao, next time you come to the Mule and Horse Market, I will still take your 10% commission!"

According to the information Lu Jiao discovered through his spiritual power, in the mule and horse market, the brokers' commission is at least 15%, and it is very rare to encounter such a low rate.

I guess Wu Mao hasn't been open for business for a long time and is getting anxious.

"A word is settled!"

The horse merchant also interrupted and said, "Young Master, if you need anything in the future, you must come to me, Old Ma! I will definitely give you a cost price!"

Lu Jiao patted Taxue's neck with a half-smile: "It is indeed the cost price!"

This made the horse merchant feel very bitter. It was not just the cost price, it was a loss-making price!

However, such a horse will only be so obedient in the hands of a master horse trainer.

He was a little unwilling to give up, and asked again: "I wonder if you can help me train horses in the future?"

Worried that Lu Jiao would not agree, he added: "The price will definitely satisfy you!"

Lu Jiao frowned slightly. She was going to the northwest soon and her return date was uncertain, so it was really inconvenient for her to agree to it.

She told the truth, but she didn't expect the horse merchant to misunderstand her: "Sir, do you also want to run a horse business?"

The horse merchant was thinking about the recent news in the capital, and it seemed that he had not heard of any new horse merchant named Jiao.

Lu Jiao quickly explained: "The Jiao family is not engaged in the horse business.

My father wants to develop in the northwest, and I am only going there to explore the way, so I am not sure when I will return."

Ma Shang felt relieved when he heard this. The Jiao family had such a powerful person. If they were really in the same industry, they would definitely be able to enter the upper class circle!

You have to know that these days, a good horse is hard to come by and is worth a fortune.

Most of those good horses are domesticated from the wild horse kings on the grasslands.

If this Master Jiao could really get a few king horses from the grassland and sell them to dignitaries, the money he would make would be more than what they would earn from working hard for a whole year.

However, it also depends on who you sell it to.

If you encounter the kind of person who takes advantage of others, your family might be destroyed!

The horse merchant told Lu Jiao his suggestions and concerns. Even Liu Aizi, who seldom came to the mule and horse market, felt a little worried after hearing it.
