CH 45.7

After saying that, he wiped the sweat from his forehead. His lips trembled, and his face was anxious.

Lin Feng knew Wu Wei’an’s thin horse.

He asked a few more questions and then said: “The capital city is very big, and good and bad people are mixed up in it. Forgive me for being frank, but I am afraid that Brother An’s horse may not be found.”

Wu Wei’an’s face turned pale.

Lin Feng said: “Well, there are many good horses in my family. If Brother An doesn’t mind it, you can go back with me and choose one.”

Wu Wei’an shook his head: “No, no, no. Thank you for your kindness, Brother Lin Feng. But my horse means a lot to me. On my days of hardship, I often go to the stable to feed the horse. When the horse saw me, it would rub my palm. I have regarded the horse as a friend and a relative. How can I give up when my relative and friend is lost?”

Wu Wei’an said loudly: “I must find it!”

The voice was so loud that the pedestrians around couldn’t help but stop.

They thought that the two scholars were quarreling, so they unconsciously gathered around to watch the excitement.

Brother Lin Feng couldn’t help but stunned for a moment, and hurriedly clasped his fists: “Brother Wei’an is really a man full of emotions!”

Wu Wei’an smiled wryly and waved his hand: “Please don’t compliment me anymore. To be honest, when the family was poor, it cost our family eight taels to buy the cheapest and worst horse. But if someone can find the horse for me, I will be happy to give fifty taels of silver as a gift!”

As soon as the word ‘fifty taels’ came out, the onlookers could not help but exclaim.

Although the sum of money related to the Ji family was always in the tens of thousands of taels, in fact, among the public, one tael of silver coins is already a large sum of money.

Not to mention fifty taels of silver! This is a huge sum of money!

When one goes to the market to buy an ordinary horse, it will still cost about twenty taels of silver, but this Master could buy it with only eight taels of silver, which means it is not a good horse at all.

This means that if they go find a bad horse, they can earn fifty taels of silver?!!!

And what did this man say his name was?

Wu Wei’an?

Isn’t that the name of the former Third Champion of the Imperial Examination?

The husband of the famous Third Miss of the Ji family in the capital, isn’t that his name?

Come to think of it, it means he really can afford to take out this fifty taels, and he won’t default on his debt!

A voice came from the crowd: “Master Wu, what does your horse look like?”

Wu Wei’an then described his horse in detail: “It is yellowish brown, extremely thin, with huge eyes, and half of the hair on its tail is black.”

The crowd said again: “Master Wu, can you draw a picture of it? Let us find it for you!”

Wu Wei’an went into the wine shop and used Lin Feng’s brush and paper to draw a horse.

Later, this painting was repainted again and again. Before long, all the beggars in the street had a copy of it.

All the people in the capital then go out vigorously to find Compiler Wu’s horse for him.

–

Less than half an hour after the birth of the Thin Horse Plan, the round-faced housekeeper, who was using the excuse of looking for his Master’s horse but is actually looking for the Fang family’s parent for his Madam, found the horse in an alley.

At this time, it was already dark, and the alley was pitch black. The thin horse was standing in the corner, motionless. It was sleeping.

The round-faced housekeeper didn’t find out right away, but it was the intuition of a martial artist that made him perceive what seemed to be in the corner of the wall.

He took a closer look through the moonlight and realized that it was their family’s horse.

The alley where the thin horse was hiding was not far from the place where the Young Master lost his carriage. However, there was a dead end in front of the lane, so nobody came here and no one found it.

The Fang’s parents have not been found yet, which means that the horse cannot be found first.

The author has something to say:

The Horse: Shit. My master has never fed me. It’s the Ji family’s Sixth Brother that fed me.
