"The Mo Family Village is rich!"
On the streets of Chang 'an, the people on both sides of the street looked at the hundreds of horses passing by in front of them with envy.
"Four strings of cash for one horse!"
The price Meton paid for the injured horses in Xi City had already spread throughout Chang 'an through "Horse Talk". More than five hundred injured horses only cost two thousand strings of cash.
But now, only ten days had passed. Even the hundred horses in front of them were worth more than two thousand strings of cash! Moreover, there were almost four hundred horses in the Mo Family Village. Even if you offered twenty thousand strings of cash, Mo Jiazi wouldn't sell them to you!
In ten days, the price went from two thousand strings of cash to twenty thousand strings of cash. Mo Jiazi's Midas touch had once again ignited the public's reputation. Now, everywhere in Chang 'an, people were talking about it. At the same time, they couldn't help but talk about the method to treat the injured horses. This was the first time the method of suturing wounds had appeared in front of the people of the Tang dynasty.
"I heard that Mo Jiazi first used iron wire to fix the horse's hooves, then used needle and thread to sew up all the wounds on the horse's hooves, just like sewing clothes!" In the Pan Family Restaurant, Shopkeeper Pan said while exaggeratedly using his hands to sew clothes.
The surrounding diners felt a chill run down their spines! Although using needles to sew up wounds was to treat illnesses, how painful would it be to prick them with needles? Not to mention sewing them together after a few stitches.
"How disgusting!" A diner shuddered at the thought.
"Disgusting?" Shopkeeper Pan glanced at him and sneered, "This is a life-saving method. Black Zhou, the ruffian in the front street, was stabbed three times in an instant. He was brought to Mo Hospital but no one could treat him. In the end, he was sent to Mo Hospital and had to be stitched up with eighteen stitches! That was how he was saved! "
"Eighteen stitches!"
The crowd was in an uproar. One could only imagine how big the wound was.
"It's said that many military doctors are currently in the Ink Hospital, specifically learning suturing techniques from Divine Doctor Sun and Divine Doctor Hua. If there's a war in the future, countless lives will be spared!" Shopkeeper Pan revealed another piece of shocking news.
Everyone was silent. In their eyes, five hundred injured horses were a huge fortune. However, they did not expect that Mo Jiazi's suturing technique to save these five hundred horses was truly a priceless treasure.
"There is a Bo Le in this world, and then there is a fine steed. A fine steed is common, but a Bo Le is not common! Scholar Sun sighed as he gulped down the wine in his mouth. Now that he was reading the 'On Horses' again, he had a whole new level of understanding.
Since ancient times, the problem of injured horses had always existed. Why was it that no one had ever treated them? However, Mo Jiazi was able to easily think of a way to suture the wound and heal them! While earning a huge sum of money, he also contributed the method of suturing wounds.
We always complain that there are no opportunities in the world, but we don't expect that sometimes the opportunity is right in front of us. It's just that we are short-sighted and don't notice it.
"Oh, right! Since all the injured horses in Chang 'an have been bought by Mo Jiazi, doesn't that mean that there are still many injured horses in Luoyang? If we go to Luoyang and buy them using the same method, wouldn't that be another windfall? " A customer slapped his thigh and regretted it immediately. If he went there secretly, wouldn't he have made a fortune?
"Hmph! If we wait for you to buy them, it would be too late! On the second day after Mo Jiazi bought the injured horses, the manager of the Village Mo Village had already left for Luoyang! "Shopkeeper Pan said angrily.
"Sigh! As expected of the God of Fortune Xu. " Everyone was disappointed. The places where the horse trade was most concentrated were Chang 'an and Luoyang. If Xu Jie didn't think of this, then the title of God of Fortune Xu would have been wasted.
But in terms of economy, Luoyang was more prosperous than Chang 'an. Luoyang was the center of the Jinghang Grand Canal. Once the Village Mo Village gained a foothold in Luoyang, they could use the Jinghang Grand Canal to sell their goods to the entire eastern part of the Tang dynasty.
Luoyang was the next most important market that Xu Jie and Meton decided on. So after Meton bought the horses, Xu Jie saw the opportunity and rushed to Luoyang with Xu Jie. The injured horses in Luoyang were the capital that allowed Xu Jie to gain a foothold in Luoyang.
… … …
In Xi City.
"What?" Zhou Zhongren asked in disbelief.
"The Mo Family's son has healed five hundred injured horses!" The person said loudly again.
"It's cured, it's cured! Hahaha, that's me, Old Zhou's middleman! "Zhou Zhongren said excitedly.
These few days, Zhou Zhongren was like a roller coaster. His business fell to the lowest point. The news of him buying 500 injured horses from Mo Jiazi was spread by his rival throughout the entire Xi City. As a result, no one was willing to ask him to be their middleman for more than 10 days.
Although he had repeatedly said that this was Mo Jiazi's decision and that he had advised him many times, he was not confident in his explanation.
Now, the son of the Mo Family had once again created a miracle. More than five hundred injured horses were cured, and his reputation was finally preserved.
No, not only was it saved, it was like adding wings to a tiger. In the entire morning, there were more than 10 deals that asked Zhou Zhongren to be their middleman. There were even many appointments in the afternoon.
Zhou Zhongren was originally an ordinary middleman in Xi City. Thanks to Meton's golden finger, he became the number one middleman in Xi City.
Wang Family's horse trade.
"Bam!"
Wang Zhe angrily threw the porcelain in his hand to the ground.
"Trash, all of you are trash!" Wang Zhe roared.
Ever since he took over the Wang Family's business, it had been smooth sailing in Chang 'an City. Especially after he defeated the famous God of Fortune Xu, Young Master Wang's prestige in Xi City became even more prominent. He did not expect that he would be defeated by Mo Jiazi.
"On Horses" and the curing of 500 injured horses made him the laughing stock of Chang 'an City's business world. He had never been taken advantage of before, so he was furious.
"Why don't we make a fuss in the contract?" Shopkeeper Wang carefully suggested. The Wang Clan's trading company had always been domineering and tyrannical. Moreover, they were extremely resourceful and had often used the word trap of trading documents to scam foreign merchants.
"Bring me the contract." Wang Zhe raised his eyebrows and said.
The contract was quickly handed over. Wang Zhe took it and read it. He could not help but be furious. It turned out that when the Wang Family's business was selling the injured horses, they were afraid that Meton would go back on his word. They had made a death contract with him and there was no chance for him to do anything.
"Demote this horse seller to shovel horse dung! Mo Jiazi bought so many injured horses in one go. Can't he see that something is wrong? "Wang Zhe said angrily.
"Yes, Young Master!" Shopkeeper Wang would of course not offend the furious Wang Zhe for the sake of a worker, although the worker's original intention was to get rid of all the injured horses in the Wang Family's business.
Everyone wanted to get rich overnight and liked to listen to legendary stories. Meton used only 2,000 strings of coins to buy 500 horses worth no less than 20,000 strings of coins in just 10 days. It was ten times the price. It was not an exaggeration to say that he had turned stone into gold.
"Mo Jiazi is still the same Mo Jiazi!"
Everywhere he went, people talked about him enthusiastically. Some sighed, some envied, and some hated him.
