"Can you sing?" Jin Yao suddenly looked back at Bai Li and asked, but he asked himself, "Probably not."
Bai Li actually knows how to do it. As a woman, she still knows some songs from the Book of Songs, such as "Jian Jia", "Plucking Wei", and "Meng". These are all familiar songs, but she also understands that Jin Yao just wants to show off.
He felt his own superiority and did not argue.
"Let me teach you how to sing!" Jin Yao said with a smile.
"Okay!" Bai Li was also thinking about how to speak without embarrassing the other party.
"Walking on the alternating paths, the old cow returning at dusk is my companion..." Jin Yao recalled and hummed slowly.
Bai Li stopped and looked at the figure in the sunset and the old cow on the roadside. How perfectly the country road fit together.
She was originally prepared for Jin Yao to teach her some songs from the Book of Songs, but she did not expect that it would be these songs with special rhythms, which she had never heard before.
"With a smile written on your face, hum a country song and let your thoughts fly in the evening breeze. How much loneliness and melancholy will be blown away by the evening wind and forgotten on the country road..."
"It's very appropriate!" Bai Li listened to the lyrics, but felt that it was so appropriate. The only difference was that there was no shepherd boy who could play the piccolo.
"Are you ready?" Jin Yao turned his head and looked at Bai Li and asked.
"Yes!" Bai Li nodded, and then spoke as softly as an oriole's call.
"Comparison between people is so irritating. I will never sing it again!" Jin Yao was silent. Without comparison, there would be no harm. Bai Li's voice was already sweet, but in the end, she still had such a good memory. She only sang it once, and the other party could actually do it.
I memorized both the lyrics and the style.
This made Jin Yao remember the process of learning swordsmanship, and how he was hung up and beaten!
"Teach the disciples and starve the master to death!" Jin Yao complained.
Back in the courtyard, Jin Yao took out a blank bamboo slip, then wrote down the process of adding a nose ring to a cow, and drew drawings of all the tools needed.
"Sir, what is this?" Bai Li looked at Jin Yao doubtfully. She didn't know how to read, but she could understand the pictures and probably guessed what Jin Yao wanted to do.
Therefore, I was even more surprised that the method of taming a stubborn cow was a craft that could be passed down to the family anywhere, but I didn't expect Jin Yao to write down these things.
The purpose of writing it down is not just for scholars to study on Fu Shu, but why was Jin Yao so anxious to complete Fu Shu?
Bai Li thought that Jin Yao had said that he would not live to be eighteen years old, not many years. Therefore, Bai Li thought that Jin Yao was so anxious because he wanted to take him to Xianyang as soon as possible to seek medical treatment for him.
Therefore, Bai Li's heart trembled, and she burst into tears unconsciously.
"Leave it to the town leader Bai Ke and ask him to report it to the county government. The story of cattle farming can be spread throughout the world." Jin Yao said calmly.
"Sir, you don't have to do this. The method of taming cattle can be passed down to the family. You don't have to give up this inheritance in exchange for traveling and studying." Bai Li still wanted to stop Jin Yao from doing this.
"I need money, a lot of money!" Jin Yao said seriously. He owed the Mo family an unknown amount of money. Mo Bian's lineage is a gold-swallowing beast. As the leader of Mo Bian, the consumption of Mo Bian's lineage is
Marked on his head.
Therefore, Jin Yao thought very simply. A cow's nose ring is easy to make. Ordinary carpenters and craftsmen can make it. However, the curved shaft plow is an iron tool. Nowadays, only the Mohists master ironmaking. Therefore, once the method of taming cows is spread throughout the world,
Well, the demand for the Quyuan plow is endless.
At that time, it will also be a huge income for the Mo family. After all, selling weapons and equipment are high-end products, not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also not so convenient. On the contrary, these gadgets can achieve small profits but quick turnover.
Bai Li misunderstood again. She knew that becoming a disciple required a lot of training, especially if she needed a top master to groom her day and night. She must need more money. She must be like this because of herself.
"You wait at home, I'll go to the town government office!" Jin Yao put away the carved bamboo slips and the silk cloth with various drawings, said a few words, and walked directly to the government office at the head of the town.
Bai Ke didn't expect that Jin Yao would come to see him on the first day he came. He thought he had some needs, so he hurriedly asked, "What do you need, sir?".
"This is Yao's poem, which can be used to promote the method of taming cattle throughout the country!" Jin Yao directly explained his purpose of coming without saying anything.
"How to tame a cow?" Bai Ke was stunned for a moment and did not react.
"Well, it's very simple and easy to learn!" Jin Yao said.
Bai Ke was stunned again. He knew how much labor a domesticated cow could bring, but he also knew how difficult it was to tame a stubborn cow, so he thought it was Jin Yao who handed over some of the Mohist's domestication methods.
came out, but I also feel that even the Mohist method of domestication is not so easy to master.
"Only a nose ring is needed?" Bai Ke looked at the Fu and the drawings submitted by Jin Yao and was confused. Can a nose ring tame a stubborn cow?
"If you don't believe me, you can send someone to ask Bai Hua, or you can send someone to test it!" Jin Yao said seriously.
"Sir, wait a minute!" Bai Ke didn't ask anyone to find Bai Hua. After all, Bai Hua and Jin Yao lived together and used their own cattle. Maybe the old cattle of Bai Hua's family had become enlightened.
Therefore, Bai Ke directly called the engineer and asked him to verify according to the drawings on the Fu.
"This ring is easy to make, but if the wooden pestle goes through the cow's nose, will it really not kill the calf?" The worker hesitated. If a cow died, it would be a serious crime.
"No!" Jin Yao said directly, and then he personally started to pierce the nose of an ox that the engineer had found, and then personally explained where it was passed from, and how big a wooden pestle should be used to pierce it.
Seeing the wooden pestle piercing the cow's nose but no blood flowed out, the workman and the official Bai Ke also breathed a sigh of relief. Then they watched Jin Yao put a nose ring on the old cow, and led the old cow through the official office by holding the nose ring.
It took a few laps before I was sure.
"Sir, are you saying that this method is effective for all cattle and can be applied to the world?" Bai Ke also understood the importance of the matter.
What does the Qin State lack most? Population and labor, and the labor of one cattle is equivalent to ten people. If this method spreads, it will be a great feat, enough to make anyone a marquis.
"Yes!" Jin Yao nodded, but still explained the age that is most suitable for banding cattle and what needs to be paid attention to.
"Quickly, go tell all the tourists to follow me to the county government!" Bai Ke couldn't sit still, carefully snatched the bamboo slips and silk cloth from the workers, and rushed to the county government overnight. This kind of thing is comparable to that of a country.
Heavy weapon, even if he died, nothing could happen to the bamboo slips and silk cloth.
Jin Yao also knew that the emergence of the cattle ring changed the entire farming process and had cross-epochal significance. It also made the status of cattle equal to that of war horses or even higher.
