Chapter 160 I am your person(1/2)
"Tian'er is back." Xia Zhengxin saw Qi Tian and Xia Qingxue enter the dining room.
"Father-in-law, the son-in-law is back." Qi Tian greeted him, but his eyes looked at the fat man, Xia Ping'an.
When Xia Ping'an heard that his brother-in-law was back, his fat little face suddenly became happy, but soon glanced at the father beside him and turned back to the appearance of a child who had made a mistake.
Xia Qingxue was still focused and sat beside Xia Xinyue carelessly and asked, "Huh? Why don't you move your chopsticks? I'm all hungry."
Xia Zhengxin sighed, "Eat it, eat it all."
But his hands still did not move, and he looked at the bowl in front of him with a sad face.
Xia Qingxue didn't notice the changes in her father, second sister, and fourth brother at all. She picked up a chicken leg and started gnawing.
After all, she had just recovered and didn't eat much during the day.
"Ping An, how about this trip to Ash Racecourse?" Qi Tian asked with a caring look on his face.
At this time, he had confirmed in his heart that something must have happened, and the problem lies with Xia Ping'an.
Xia Ping'an Huangdou looked at his father beside him, then looked at his second sister, but didn't say anything.
"Hasn't the horse been purchased?" Qi Tian asked.
If you don’t buy horses, it’s nothing. If you don’t make money or lose money, you’ll just be considered a traveler.
Xia Ping'an shook his head.
"Oh, is the acquisition price high?" Qi Tian continued to ask.
If the price is high, the most likely thing is to lose some money, but it will not lose all your money.
Xia Ping'an shook his head and nodded again.
Qi Tian was a little confused. What does it mean to nod and shake his head again?
“It’s better for me to say it.
This time Ping An bought two-thirds of the horses on Ashe Farm.
But I bought it not the plateau horse, but the plain horse.
But the price was bought at the price of Plateau Malaysia, three times that of Plain Pony." Xia Xinyue said.
Qi Tian didn't know much about horses and said in confusion: "Plain horses? What is the difference between plateau horses?"
Xia Xinyue frowned. She didn't know much about horses, so she turned to her father.
Xia Zhengxin had experience in serving in the imperial court and had an understanding of military supplies, but few people knew about it.
"Plateau Malaysia is the main war mount of various empires. It is large in size and has strong endurance. It can travel hundreds of miles a day for several days.
The cavalry of the Lion Empire all chose plateau horses as mounts.
The plains pony is small in size and lacks endurance, so it cannot run for a long distance. No cavalry of any country chooses this pony.
Plain pony is generally used mainly in the people, helping the people pull carts, grind them, etc., which is similar to donkeys." Xia Zhengxin explained in a low tone.
Qi Tian's heart suddenly sank, and he finally understood why Xia Zhengxin was as depressed as if her son had died.
He must have wanted to slap Xia Ping'an to death now.
This time I went to Ash Horse Farm to buy horses, and I signed an order in vain, and it was two-thirds of the horses. Needless to say, I know that the number is very huge.
The reason why the imperial court opened widespread access to the acquisition of horses was to fight the invasion of the Lion Empire and arm its cavalry.
This kind of plain pony is definitely not within the scope of the acquisition.
But now that there are signing such a large number of plain ponies, how should the Xia family digest it?
Even if it is sold, it takes time, and how to raise it is also a big problem during the long sale process.
It is definitely necessary to have a large ranch, but where should I find such a large ranch in a short time?
Moreover, the acquisition price is so much higher, even if it is sold, the Xia family will lose a lot of money.
"How much is the total amount?" Qi Tian asked, he wanted to estimate the loss.
But Xia Zhengxin slammed the table and was so scared that he jumped up!
I saw him grab Xia Ping'an beside him and skillfully came up with the "Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms", which hit the fat face.
The crisp sound of "pa,pa,pa..." is clear and loud.
Just as Qi Tian was about to stop his father-in-law symbolically, Xia Zhengxin picked up a wooden stick from the side as thick as an adult's arm and skillfully played the "big dog stick technique".
Xia Xinyue looked at her brother being beaten with expressionless expression, without any intention of stopping her.
Xia Qingxue still had half a piece of chicken wings in her mouth. After seeing that her second sister was not moving, she continued to eat and drink.
"Ah... Dad, I was wrong... Stop hitting..."
"Ah...Second sister, third sister, save me..."
"Brother-in-law, save me...my dad is going to beat me to death..."
………
Qi Tian looked at his father-in-law beating Xia Ping'an like crazy, and his heart was already sinking to the bottom...
Because the more you beat, the more you lose...
"Crack." The wooden stick broke because it could not bear the gravity.
Xia Zhengxin threw down the half-parted wooden stick in his hand, raised his foot, and then came another standard set of "Foshan Shadowless Foot"...
………
Finally, a tragic inhuman battle was finally over in Xia Zhengxin's breath.
At this time, Xia Ping'an seemed to faint and lay quietly on the cold ground.
In addition to the clothes on her body, she could also recognize that she was Xia Ping'an, other exposed areas had completely changed.
The round head, which was originally fat, is now swollen like a pig's head, and its fair skin is blue and purple.
He could imagine the scars inside his clothes without taking off his clothes.
Qi Tian sighed on his back, thinking to himself, it’s not that the tiger poison cannot eat, but that it’s just that it’s not so angry that it’s not angry.
Just now, Xia Zhengxin's moves were all hitting the vital points, palming to the face, fist to the stick to the body, and exerting force on his feet.
If you ask why you didn't greet the lower body, maybe... it's too small to hit.
"My father-in-law calms down. As long as we are together, we can survive the storm of the worst, just like the Li family framed us before..."
"Eighty million gold." Xia Zhengxin directly interrupted Qi Tian's words, stretched out his hand, and gestured his eight characters.
Qi Tian swallowed the second half of the words back and wanted to go over and make up for a few more feet...
I finally climbed out of the quagmire and was not happy for a few days and entered another deep pit...
It really goes with the saying, eating, drinking, having fun, really not making money. A real prodigal son is the kind of rich second generation who doesn’t know anything and insists on becoming CEOs.
Just one decision can bring the family business accumulated by generations to pieces.
Qi Tian sat back on his seat with a little depressed look and asked, "When will those plain ponies arrive?"
Xia Zhengxin sighed and said, "In ten days, I have already told Ah Fu to find a place to grazing nearby.
But what is even more urgent is that as long as the horse arrives, the full amount must be paid within seven days, and one-percent penalty will be paid one day later.
I thought I could be acquired by the court, so I asked Afu and Xia Ping'an to acquire everything.
But at present, these horses are not the plateau horses that the imperial court wants to buy, but the plain horses. They can only be sold by us little by little. The funds cannot be recovered so quickly and cannot be turned over at all."
Qi Tian is so regretful now that he even has a blue heart!
Why did Xia Ping'an go to buy horses when he was blind?
Just to let him and A Xing go to the grassland for a honeymoon?
Suddenly, Qi Tian's heart suddenly jumped and he thought to himself, this is wrong!
Xia Ping'an followed Ah Fu. Ah Fu was very serious and cautious in his work. How could he sign such a ridiculous order?
Qi Tian looked at Ah Fu, but the latter looked like he wanted to speak but stopped.
Qi Tian understood that there were indeed other stories here. It seems that only after asking Ah Fu after dinner can you know the whole cause and effect of this matter.
Although Ah Fu almost betrayed the Xia family before, he never took that last step. Moreover, his wife and children are now in Qimen Mountain, so he will not have any evil intentions.
It seemed as if the scene from the previous few days reappeared, and the meal was extremely dull.
But there was one person who was very strange. The Xia family encountered a crisis again, even more than the last time, but it was like nothing happened. They should eat and drink, and looked relaxed and calm.
"You have a good appetite today." Qi Tian said to Xia Xinyue, who was a little abnormal.
Xia Xinyue picked up a piece of fish meat, carefully picked out the soft thorns, and said without raising her head: "Well, this fish is good today, but there are a lot of thorns.
Ah Fu, next time I tell the kitchen that when making fish, I will choose some with fewer thorns, otherwise it will be too troublesome to eat.”
Ah Fu nodded, "Okay, Miss Second."
Xia Zhengxin also looked at Xia Xinyue with some surprise. The crisis encountered by the Xia family this time is no smaller than the previous trade crisis, and it seems that he doesn't care at all.
