Not to mention, according to this merchant, these two golden eagles are still the best among golden eagles, and the best things are always more expensive among many commodities.

"Where are the eagles?"

Li Yi pointed to the young eagle next to him.

"This is a prairie eagle, 100 taels of silver each." The merchant said with a smile, and he didn't look down on Li Yi just because Li Yi thought his golden eagles were expensive.

The group of people behind Li Yi is not simple at first glance. It is normal for the two parties to negotiate the price and dislike each other when buying and selling things.

"Do you have birds here that can fly people when they grow up?" Suddenly, Li Yi turned to look at the merchant and asked.

Hearing Li Yi's question, the businessman had a strange look on his face, and then he shook his head with a funny smile and said, "The guest is just kidding, there are no birds on the grassland that can do this, and they can carry thirty to fifty catties It is considered very powerful to dive off the ground, but as for the birds that can fly with people, there is no one."

"There is a difference between taking off and flying. Flying raptors may have a higher load-bearing capacity. For raptors that have not yet taken off, you may just put a few kilograms of weight on them, and they will not be able to fly. Therefore, if you want to find a bird that can fly people, you probably won't be able to find it."

After a pause, the merchant continued.

"All right!"

Li Yi nodded, a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

It seems that this world is indeed a world of low martial arts, at least, the environment he is currently in contact with is like this.

His idea of ​​sitting on a bird and flying, and even the idea of ​​building a flying knight, is about to fail.

"Three prairie eagles, two red-headed golden eagles, 1000 taels of silver, if possible, I will buy them." Then, Li Yi thought for a while and said.

"Young Master's price is too much." The merchant shook his head.

"These things are my extra expenses. Since it's inconvenient for you, I can only cooperate with you when I have a chance in the future."

Li Yi smiled and said that he didn't give the other party too much face, such as turning around and leaving.

Don't merchants want to lose face?You turn around and leave, and when you meet a tough businessman who could have sold it to you, but seeing you like this, he won't sell it to you.

One thousand two 300 taels of silver, counter-offer to 1000 taels, is that much?Not many, especially since this is a border trading area, it is estimated that many things have more false heads.

Li Yi didn't like bargaining, so he gave this price, if he could buy it, he would buy it, if he couldn't buy it, then forget it.

The most important thing is that this kind of bird cannot fly with people, so Li Yi doesn't need this kind of thing urgently.

After saying some polite words, Li Yi turned and left.

"Hey, customer, if you don't have enough funds, you can buy one less prairie eagle, 1000 taels of silver is also fine," the merchant continued.

"The quantity is too small to be worth buying."

Li Yi turned around, looked at the other party, shook his head slightly and said.

"Who told me that you have eyes, three prairie eagles, two red-headed golden eagles, 1000 taels of silver is 1000 taels of silver." The merchant gritted his teeth and said.

Li Yi smiled, said nothing more, and asked the people around him to give the merchant 100 taels of gold.

They came here in a hurry this time, and they didn't bring much gold or silver. However, when they parted from Qin Yang and his party, Qin Yang lent him 500 taels of gold. .

Seeing that what Li Yi paid was gold, the merchant smiled even more.

The exchange ratio between gold and silver is at least one to ten, especially since this is a border area where the environment is relatively chaotic. Gold is small in size, safer to hold, and has a higher relative value.

If he had known that what Li Yi paid was gold, he would have agreed.

For this reason, he gave Li Yi several high-quality iron cages.

Li Yi asked the people around him to send these young eagles and eagles to the inn.

Next.

He led people around the commodity areas of Parkway City, asking about the prices of various commodities.

Regarding this market, Li Yi had a vague plan in mind.

Finally, Li Yi and his party went to the horse market.

There are a lot of horses here.

Li Yi's eyes lit up.

One of his plans was about horses.

"Guests, do you want to buy a horse?" A merchant came up to greet him and asked with a smile.

"How do you sell the horses here?" Li Yi asked.

"Look at the quantity purchased by customers. If you buy in bulk, a low-grade horse costs 25 taels of silver, a middle-grade horse costs 50 taels of silver, a top-grade horse costs 280 taels of silver, and a top-quality horse costs 550 taels of gold. You only need gold to buy a top-quality horse , not silver."

"Extreme quality horse, why is it so expensive?"

Li Yi frowned.

A first-class horse costs 280 taels of silver, and a top-quality horse costs 550 taels of gold, which is almost a twenty-fold difference.

"The guest officer should have heard that rare things are the most precious. There are some high-quality horses in large and small tribes. All parties compete, and the value cannot be increased. Many tribes don't have top-quality horses. They are hard to come by. As long as there is one, customers won’t have to worry about buying it, and the buyers are all nobles, so tell me, can the price go up?” the merchant laughed.

"Okay, but, are the grades of your horses accurate?" Li Yi nodded slightly.

What the other party said is not difficult to understand. It is like the difference between luxury goods and ordinary goods in the previous life. Ordinary bags are tens of dollars a bag, and a bag of hundreds of dollars is considered good. Luxury bags are tens of thousands of dollars each. Hundreds of thousands, millions of ones, ordinary people may not necessarily earn this money after decades of hard work, dare you think?

In comparison, a top-quality horse worth more than 500 taels of gold is considered a relatively valuable luxury.

Li Yi has judged that inferior horses are unqualified horses evaluated by Goldfinger.

A medium horse is a junior horse evaluated by Goldfinger.

A first-class horse is an intermediate-level horse evaluated by Goldfinger.

The best horse is the high-end horse evaluated by Goldfinger.

However, after all, it is the judgment of the human being, and as a human being, there are times when people are blind. This time, Li Yi wanted to take advantage of this loophole.

"Guests, don't worry, our racecourse is a well-established brand for decades, and the horsemen are well-known. If you find that the horse you bought is bad, the original price will be refunded, and the horse will be given to you for free." The merchant said with a smile.

Li Yi chuckled lightly.

This time, what he wanted to find was not a horse farm with a good eye, but a horse farm with a bad eye.

However, it's all here, so I have to take a look at it anyway.

And, what if someone is bragging?

"Can I enter the racecourse to pick?"

Li Yi asked.

"How many horses does the customer intend to buy?" asked the merchant.

"Looking at the fate, it's possible to have a few hundred horses, or even not to buy a few horses." Li Yi shook his head and said.

"All right, what grade of horse do you want to buy? If you want to buy a lot of low-grade and medium-grade horses, you need to go outside the city to trade them. There are not many low-grade and medium-grade horses in the city!" the merchant laughed. Dao, he has seen many guests like this. This young man is a man of great merchants. It is not easy for such a young man of great merchants to come here. The people behind this young man are not simple, nor are the women around him. He will not underestimate Li Yi.

This is likely to be a client with a lot of potential.

Chapter 152 Top Mustang

"Let's go and see the high-quality horses first!" Li Yi said.

It is too difficult to pick up big leaks from low-grade horses and middle-grade horses. Moreover, the base number of low-grade horses and middle-grade horses is too large, and it takes too much energy. From the beginning, Li Yi's idea was to get high-grade horses.

"Okay!" The merchant found a waiter, and led Li Yi and his party to the stables of the high-grade horses.

Creature found: a war horse.

Level: Intermediate Warhorse.

Creature found: a war horse.

Level: Intermediate Warhorse.

The horse needs to be trained a little before the name of the horse will be displayed. This process is not complicated. In order to better serve customers, many horse farms have done this kind of training for top-grade and above horses.

Li Yi went all the way, continuously appraised more than 100 horses in a row, and found that they were all intermediate war horses. Li Yi sighed in his heart, the horseman at this racecourse had a good vision, and it was fine if he didn't find a high-level horse among so many horses. , Not even a junior horse was found.

It should be known that the ability of many junior horses is very close to that of intermediate horses, and they may also be classified as high-end horses.

It also shows that this racecourse has relatively high standards for high-quality horses, and those who do not meet the standards will be wiped out.

"Ok?"

When 198 horses were identified, Li Yi's body paused slightly, and a bright light flashed in the depths of his eyes.

Advanced Warhorse!

This is an advanced war horse!

Looking at the appearance, this horse is ordinary and no different from other intermediate horses. However, Li Yi believes in Goldfinger's grading ability even more. Since it has been graded in this way, there should be no mistakes.

Sure enough!

Li Yi wanted to laugh out loud.

A high-quality horse, 280 taels of silver each!

A top-quality horse, 550 taels of gold per horse!

Spend the money to buy a high-quality horse, buy a top-quality horse, the difference is nearly twenty times!

"I want this horse, you bring it out."

Li Yi pointed at the horse and said.

"I can make a note here, and it won't be too late to bring out the horse together after the young master finishes picking out the horse." The little boy said with a smile.

"Let's take it out first, I'm afraid it will get messed up later."

Li Yi shook his head.

It was hard to pick out a top-quality horse. In case, this is a trap deliberately set up by the racecourse, and it will be transferred later, it will be bad.

Li Yi had seen many such things in his previous life, it wasn't because he was just worrying about them.

Even if it is not transferred, if the other party finds out that it is a top-quality horse, raising the price will also attract unnecessary wrangling.

Or take it out directly, and when you leave, check out together to save trouble.

This racecourse is quite powerful, with a total of more than 700 high-quality horses in the city.

In the end, Li Yi was lucky enough to find four high-level horses.

Li Yi was very satisfied.

This saved him at least four hundred points of power of faith!

This is the first racecourse, and there are at least a dozen racecourses in this city!

There are more than a dozen top-quality horses in this racecourse. Li Yi took a look and found that one of them was rated as an intermediate horse by Goldfinger, and the others were rated as high-end horses by Goldfinger. Li Yi did not buy that intermediate horse on purpose. , Let the racecourse give it to him for free.

One is for more than 200 taels of silver, which is unnecessary.

The second is the identification of horse grades, which is also relatively complicated and vague. You say it is a top-grade horse, but others insist that it is a top-quality horse. There is not a big difference in ability between the two. How to judge?

Therefore, Li Yi simply did not do such a thing.

Finally, when Li Yi paid the bill, the other party took the initiative to erase the 30 taels of silver.

Li Yi and his party paid gold, which made the other party think that they were a potential customer. They offered to say that in ten days, their racecourse would bring in a new batch of horses. If Li Yi was still in Parkway City, they could come and see the horses again.

The owner of this racecourse didn't realize that the horse Li Yi chose was a top-quality horse, and Li Yi was too worried. It's not so easy to judge a horse's grade, especially for a horse with a higher grade, you have to try it out.

Otherwise, no matter how good your appearance is, if you can't escape, you won't be able to.

The second horse farm.

Li Yi selected three high-level war horses.

The third racecourse.

Li Yi selected two high-level war horses.

The fourth racecourse.

The scale of the horse farms is much lower than that of the first three horse farms, but Li Yi selected four high-end war horses from them. Li Yi felt a little sympathetic to the owner of this horse farm. I looked around among the mid-level horses at this racecourse to see if there were any high-level horses that I missed.

Not to mention, Li Yi found more than a dozen mid-level horses without finding any high-level horses. In the eyes of ordinary people, these are top-level horses.

Li Yi thought about it and bought it together.

Size is also a leak.
