The mule and horse manure is very fumigating, so the mule and horse market cannot be in the town, but outside the town. Walking westward, leaving the town, fewer pedestrians gradually became less and less. The breeze blew, and the fresh earthy smell was mixed with a familiar smell of cow dung. Chen Wanrong knew that the mule and horse market was coming soon, so he accelerated his foot and walked over.

The mule and horse market is surrounded by wooden fences, and there are many stables inside, with donkeys, mules, horses, and cattle. Many people come in and out at the door, either empty-handed or holding animals.

As soon as Chen Wanrong entered the door, a middle-aged man with thick eyebrows and big eyes strode forward and shouted loudly: "Customer, are you buying or selling? If you buy, the animals here in my Niu Dayan are one of the best, and you can choose from you. If you sell, I will send a guy to your house to see it. If you think the price is right, we will make a deal. Don't worry, my price is fair and will not let you suffer a loss."

The voice was big, as if he was ringing a gong, and many people looked at him sideways. The man was stout, with a big mouth and bigger eyes. The name Niu Dayan was not wrong.

Chen Wanrong likes his straight-tongue personality very much. He doesn't have to worry about dealing with such people. He just needs to be honest and smiled and said, "Brother Niu, let's see if there are any animals you like."

"Little brother, please come here." Niu Dayan Shizhuzi has a very familiar personality and is already called Chen Wanrong's little brother.

Under the leadership of Niu Dayan, Chen Wanrong wandered around the market. There were many animals such as mules, horses, oxes and donkeys. Some animals looked good, but some were not big.

"Brother Niu, how much does a horse cost?" Chen Wanrong didn't plan to buy a horse. He wanted to buy one for Chen Zairong if he had the chance, and he fulfilled his wish. Of course, he had to ask about the price.

Niu Da's eyes rolled and smiled and said, "Little brother, I think you are a honest person, so I'll tell you the truth. Horses are good and dependent, it depends on which one you buy. Good ones cost forty or fifty taels of silver, and even more expensive ones cost about hundreds of taels of silver, and the average ones cost about twenty taels of silver. It's also now. If it were ten years ago, Marco would be several taels of silver more expensive than now. Now, there are more horses than before, and they are not worth less than before."

Since the Western Han Dynasty, "horse politics" has been implemented. Because horses are related to the safety of the country and are strategic resources, they have attached great importance to them in all dynasties. The Tang Dynasty pushed horse politics to the top. The Tang Dynasty had the most horses in Chinese history. According to historical records, the Tang Dynasty controlled as many as 500,000 official horses. This is not counting the horses raised by the people and the horses obtained from trade with surrounding ethnic minorities. With these, the Tang Dynasty had no less than one million horses.

It is precisely because of so many horses that the Tang Dynasty could use a large number of horses to equip the army. Even infantry would also equip horses. They used them for transportation during marches, transport supplies and supplies, and only dismount when they arrived at the battlefield. The biggest advantage of this is that it improved the mobility of the Tang army and could quickly rush from one place to another; the second is that it greatly saved physical strength, so that the Tang army was still full of energy and had the strength to fight when they arrived at the battlefield.

It can be imagined that if there were no such many horses, the heavy infantry in the Tang Dynasty would not be able to be put into the battlefield. A sword weighed fifty kilograms, and a horizontal sword weighed about sixty kilograms. In addition, armor, bows and arrows (bows and arrows are standard equipment of the Tang army, regardless of the types of troops, each person has a pair of debris), and other debris such as changing clothes and rations that they carry, a heavy infantry would have to carry nearly a hundred kilograms.

If you force yourself to marching with so many things, you will be so tired that you vomit blood if you don’t take fifty miles. When you arrive on the battlefield, where can you fight?

After Emperor Taizong of Tang, although his hegemony was not as good as in the Zhenguan period, the horse government was not abandoned. The number of horses in the Tang Dynasty increased day by day, and more and more, the consequence was that they became less valuable.

A thunderous roar of cow sounded like a "moo".

Chen Wanrong looked in search of the sound and saw a black bull in front of him, with her hair standing up, her hind legs kicking the ground, her body was high in front and low in the back, her eyes widened, and her head turned to look for a target.

"Xiao Hei, you're going crazy again!" Niu Dayan opened his voice and shouted, as if he was thundering, which made Chen Wanrong's ears buzz.

"I want you to be crazy, you are crazy!" Niu Dayan grabbed a wooden stick as thick as an arm and rushed over. When he arrived, the wooden stick in his hand was raised high, staring at the black bull with a nervous look on his face, but he didn't dare to go forward and smash a stick.

The bull's eyes seemed to see an enemy. His eyes suddenly turned red. He raised his head and roared for a long time. It was strange. When it roared, it turned out that the mules, horses and animals that were originally called into pieces immediately became quiet. He stood quietly in the local area and didn't even dare to eat grass.

Unexpectedly, it was still the overlord here. With a roar, it actually suppressed the other animals and did not dare to move. Chen Wanrong couldn't help but look carefully. He saw that the bull was pure black, shiny, and the body was thick. The pair of curved horns on his head were facing each other in a crescent shape, and the essence seemed to be endless.

Chen Wanrong has lived in the countryside for more than ten years and has seen many kinds of cows, but he has never seen such a good cow. He couldn't help but praise him. This cow is worth at least twenty taels of silver, but unfortunately he only has fourteen taels of silver on him, otherwise he would have to ask for it.

Niu Dayan was very afraid of it, and bluffed the wooden stick in his hand and shouted, "Xiao Hei, be quiet, otherwise I will hit it."

Gu Niu replied with a roar and struggled hard. The rope as thick as a wine glass on his head was tied to a wooden stake. The wooden stake kept shaking and could be pulled over at any time. It was so powerful.

Niu Dayan knew how powerful this cow was. Once he broke free, it would be very troublesome. He roared and the wooden stick in his hand hit the horn, which was right on the horn. The bull was in pain, roared and struggled desperately, and with a crack, the wooden stake broke into two pieces.

Once the bull is free, it is as happy as a fish in water and rushed out. It rushes forward, as if it is entering a no-man. Wherever it goes, people and animals dodge, how dare it win over its sharpness.

Niu Dayan held a wooden stick and shouted behind him, his voice hoarse, but he didn't dare to push too close, and he just sighed.

The bull was tossing for a while, suddenly turned around, his limbs exerted force, and rushed straight towards the bull's big eyes like an arrow. The sound of thumping sound made the ground shake, as if thousands of troops were galloping, with such a great power.

Niu Dayan had never seen such a sound. He was so scared that he stood stupidly with a wooden stick, even forgot to run away.

"Niu Dayan, run!" I don't know who shouted and reminded Niu Dayan. He could hear it, and the voice was very frightened, as if he had encountered a devil.

A word woke up the dreamer. Niu Dayan threw the wooden stick in his hand and turned around and ran away. However, he was not as fast as the bull, and he ran several feet long before he caught up with the bull. Niu Dayan, who had nowhere to retreat and had nowhere to escape, looked at Gu Niu in fear and rushed towards his chest. The pair of crescent-shaped bull horns hit his chest.

If it is hit hard, with Gu Niu's strength, he will be seriously ill even if he does not die. Niu's big eyes stretched out his hands in vain to protect his chest.

The scene of the sternum broken in fear did not appear. Niu Dayan calmed down and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, one by one, and then he found that someone was whistling. Looking at the sound, he saw that it was not someone else's whistling, but Chen Wanrong, and Chen Wanrong was holding the rope that tied the bull, whistling, and strode towards the bull.

It was strange that the bull, who had seen a person-super, was very helpful to the whistle. The black hair on its erect drooped, the blood red in its eyes gradually faded away, and the limbs that were kicking out slowly returned to normal, standing quietly in the local area.

The cow has raised this cow for several years. I know its nature and is active and has never had a moment of peace. It is the first time I encountered such a quiet scene. I thought I was dazzled and kept rubbing my eyes until my eyes hurt. I had to believe that this is true.

Chen Wanrong walked to Gu Niu and stretched out his right hand. Gu Niu rubbed the horns on Chen Wanrong's right hand as if he was catering to him. His eyes opened and closed, as if he was enjoying it as if he met an old friend.

Chen Wanrong gently touched his hands on his eyes, and the bull's eyes were half open and half closed, and he enjoyed it very much. He couldn't help but lift the front hooves, put them down and then lift them up and down, making a crisp sound, as if he was dancing a tap dance. Finally, the bull's horns gently pressed against Chen Wanrong's thighs and rubbed them, shaking their tails, leisurely and tightly.

Niu Da's eyes suddenly fell: "Little brother, how did you tame it? I have been raising it for two or three years and have thought of many ways but have not tamed it. The more you tamed it, the more intense it becomes, it is better not to tame it."

This trouble attracted a lot of people to watch. They knew that no one could tame this cow's character, but they didn't expect to tame Chen Wanrong, and they agreed curiously: "Yes! Do you have a unique skill?"

What kind of skills can you do? I have been tossing and grazing cattle since I was a child. I have been doing a lot of time. I have been blowing whistling, throwing stones, and putting ropes to make cattle herding tricks. Chen Wanrong smiled and said, "It's nothing, I whistled and it became quiet."

After wiping the sweat on his forehead, Niu Dayan calmed down for a moment, then he took a breath and said, "Little brother, Xiao Hei is destined to be with you, please take it away."

Seeing Xiao Hei's majesty, Chen Wanrong liked it from the bottom of his heart and asked, "How much does it cost?"

"You can give it to Fifteen... Ten Points." Niu Dayan glanced at Xiao Hei who was close to Chen Wanrong, and was both angry and annoyed.

Such a good guy is worth at least twenty coins. Chen Wanrong is unwilling to take advantage of him and said, "Isn't it too little?"

"If it were someone else, I wouldn't give it to you if you didn't have twenty stakes. You little brother, you're destined to be with Xiao Hei, just ten stakes. It's just to find a good family for it." Niu Dayan was also straightforward and not greedy.

His mood was very complicated, Chen Wanrong could understand that if he hadn't accidentally tamed Xiao Hei, Niu Dayan would have been lying on the ground and would have been seriously ill. He smiled and said, "Since Brother Niu said that, I'm not polite." He took out the money to pay the bill.

Many of the onlookers breathed a sigh of relief: "I finally got rid of this disaster!" It seemed as if Xiao Hei was a demon.

Chen Wanrong said goodbye: "Brother Niu, then I will say goodbye."

"Little brother, go!" Niu Dayan clasped his fists and said goodbye, walked over and patted Xiao Hei's buttocks: "Xiao Hei, I have found a good family for you. Don't let it go in the future, be obedient." Without saying a word, he just screamed and kicked Xiao Hei far away, and fell to the ground with all his backs.

Niu Dayan turned over and sat up, and in pain, gritted his teeth and cursed: "You are being beaten..." He found that Chen Wanrong was staring at him, and he could no longer scold him when he was hit by Qiandao.

Xiao Hei roared happily, shook his head and wagged his tail and followed Chen Wanrong. The cow's head rubbed against Chen Wanrong from time to time, and occasionally there were a few cheerful roars.
