Chapter 250: A Hakka Girl Asks for a Guaranteed Monthly Pass
Chapter 250 Guest Girl (please ask for a guaranteed monthly ticket)
After staying at the inn for half a month, Gu Qingcheng went to the simple "workshop" to check on it every day.
When the craftsmen saw that Gu Qingcheng attached so much importance to it, they became even more afraid to slack off.
Ding-ding-ding! Dang-dang-dang!
After three days of hammering and hammering, they had a finished product.
Gu Qingcheng took the horseshoe that was still warm and slowly fumbled with it with her hands.
Her hands are the standard!
She could clearly feel whether the craftsmanship of this horseshoe was up to standard and whether the size was standard.
"Here, and here, polish it again!"
Gu Qingcheng couldn't tell the specific unit of size, after all, craftsmen of this era simply couldn't understand "silk".
"Forget it! Give me a file."
Gu Qingcheng couldn't describe how much it was still missing, so he simply did it himself!
Zheng Mo endured it again and again, but still couldn't.
Every summer, strong winds come from the sea.
However, even though it was said to be "departure", it was still delayed for three days.
Hurricane season should be over too!
Their skills are not high enough, so naturally they cannot feel the power of Gu Qingcheng.
Twenty little girls knelt respectfully in front of Gu Qingcheng.
Gu Heng was not afraid of the miasma in Lingnan, including snakes, insects, rats, and ants, but he also did not want to be blown into the sky by a hurricane.
"Okay! Let's set off!"
"This is?"
Zheng Mo didn't know Gu Heng's plan, and he breathed a sigh of relief when he heard that his ancestor finally relaxed.
By then, it will probably be late summer or early autumn.
Twenty little girls, the eldest is thirteen or fourteen years old, the youngest is seven or eight years old, all are members of the Gu family.
The Gu family was rich, and when they were exiled, they also brought a large cart of copper coins, gold and silver.
"Can you read?"
Even Gu Qingcheng smiled a little.
He is the kind of versatile civil and military man who can lead troops to fight when he mounts his horse, and can govern the country when he dismounts.
Gu Heng saw his little granddaughter's confident face and didn't want to hurt her.
Although Gu Heng was a civil servant, he was not a corrupt scholar.
"Hey! Good!"
Food, medicine, clothing and other daily necessities need to be prepared in advance.
With a gentle stroke, the slightest trace of thickness was rubbed away, and Gu Qingcheng was satisfied!
There is only a 0.5 wire difference, but this horseshoe reaches perfection!
That night, a group of knights galloped towards the North Dynasty.
In this era, although the aristocratic families were not as bohemian as those in the Wei and Jin Dynasties, they were still very unique.
"With this thing, my son will be able to occupy a high position in the Northern Dynasties!"
Three days later, the Gu family's Bu Qu came back on horseback.
Isn't it just a horse? The Gu family can afford to lose it.
Gu Heng was a little excited.
However, due to the status of the Gu family and Gu Heng's reputation, he did not dare to pay too much attention.
First, we need to prepare supplies again.
Gu Qingcheng asked softly.
"Horses' hoofs are indeed similar to human feet, but horses' hoofs are not meat, but -"
"Ah Weng, you will know whether it works or not after you try it!"
If we travel at this pace, it will probably take another two to three months.
Since the explanation is unclear, I simply won’t explain it.
Gu Qingcheng: ...It’s extremely cold at high places.
On this day, he came to see Gu Heng and reminded him tactfully.
"If you hammer a nail into a horse's hoof, horse, will the horse get hurt?"
This one says, "Slaves will be red."
Some of these horses are shoed, some are not!
What Gu Heng wanted was strong contrast visible to the naked eye.
Someone else said, "I learned riding and shooting from my father and brother!"
No one knows whether they will encounter a county town or a post station when they are on the road.
A certain tribe agreed, then galloped out on horseback.
It has taken nearly two months.
"Sanniang!"
There is still more than half a journey to Luozhou, his place of exile.
"Keep the distance in mind, it's about three to four hundred miles back and forth!"
After running back and forth for more than four hundred miles, there was no loss at all.
Zheng Mo really couldn't stand this grinding, procrastinating schedule.
The horses can handle mountainous areas, flat areas, and even the occasional pebble.
She can just do whatever she wants and do whatever she wants.
Gu Qingcheng's age is indeed the best disguise.
If you reach the wilderness and don't have enough things, you can only endure it.
However, does a large appetite mean a large amount of strength?
Speak directly with facts.
Even at a distance of three to four hundred miles, there will be wear and tear, but it will not harm the horse's hooves!
"yes!"
It's early summer now.
Gu Qingcheng held the file, and the familiarity from her soul put her in a state of mind instantly.
"You mean, nailing this to the horse's hoof will reduce the wear and tear on the horse's hoof?"
The little girls reported one by one.
Gu Qingcheng asked casually.
Trimming your nails doesn't hurt!
Gu Heng looked at his little granddaughter's obviously "open" face, well, it has become prettier again.
"Mr. Lang, the horse's hoofs are not worn out!"
Know martial arts?
not bad.
Gu Qingcheng focused on writing down this guest girl.
People, livestock, etc. will also be carried by the wind and fly into the sky.
…
Gu Heng calculated the distance and readily agreed.
During the whole process, the horse was panicked but not in pain.
Pull up the fence to block all curious sights.
"It must be the little girl from the Gu family who is causing trouble. The same goes for Mr. You'an, who is so conniving!"
A big appetite, to put it nicely, is a blessing to be able to eat, but to put it badly, it is a waste of food.
Gu Qingcheng glanced at them. Well, they were all respectful, and they were not like timid children.
Seeing this scene, Gu Heng became more and more confident in his little granddaughter.
If the horse's hoofs are not worn out, the war horse will not be scrapped!
Gu Heng could still sort out this cause and effect relationship.
With so many people eating, drinking, and eating, we must be well prepared.
Gu Qingcheng started the large-scale purchasing mode again, sending people to nearby villages, towns, and even counties to buy various things.
"That's fine!"
"Mr. You'an, it's been almost a month, should we set off?"
Gu Heng looked at the several iron pieces placed in front of him, completely confused as to what his little granddaughter meant.
Gu Heng took a person's foot and hammered nails into it. Hiss~, Gu Heng felt pain just thinking about it!
Every time hurricane season comes, coastal states and counties are affected by disasters. Many officials are frightened by the power of the weather and have to retreat inland to take shelter.
The horses seem to be particularly happy when they are running.
Among them, seven or eight little girls raised their heads and said, "I know a few words!"
Then when it was the turn of a little girl who looked chubby, she was very hesitant.
Zheng Mo:...What on earth are the Gu family fussing over?
He is also a blacksmith, and he is also a path explorer, mysterious and sneaky.
With a clear example in front of him, he didn't need to waste any words in his letter.
Not bad! Gu Qingcheng silently wrote down these literate guest girls.
Craftsman & Steward:…
Gu Heng ordered people to take both the man and the horse to the backyard.
Even if his Gu family cannot gain a foothold in the Southern Dynasties, it will never decline.
As for a noble girl, the most important thing is the word "noble".
Avoiding Zheng Mo, the lieutenant general of the Qianniu Guard who was in charge of "escorting", Gu Heng quietly ordered someone to bring a horse, and then nailed horseshoes to the horse's hooves.
After receiving the approval of the young steward, the craftsman held the file in front of Gu Qingcheng with trembling hands.
But here comes the problem——
They were just astonished: This is it! This is it!
Is your third wife okay?
The craftsmen were shocked at first, and then panicked.
At this moment, the guest girl that Gu Yi gave to Gu Qingcheng also arrived.
"Didn't you hear me?"
Sure enough, seeing Gu Qingcheng insisting, although the steward felt it was inappropriate, he still winked at the craftsman.
When he was young, Gu Heng also led the army. Therefore, he knew the importance of horseshoes very well.
Looking at the horseshoe again, I was dubious.
Just be willing to keep going!
"Have people ride on horses to explore the way!"
The little steward also looked worried.
"how?"
After holding it in for a long time, the little girl said sheepishly, "Slave, I'm so good at eating!"
Because he found that Bu Qu, who was riding a horse, looked ecstatic.
After a few days of adapting, she has completely returned to the mode of a noble girl from aristocratic families.
They are the servants of the Gu family and belong to private property.
Towering trees can rise from the ground.
Such strong winds are also called "hurricanes" (typhoons).
This is also a true son of an aristocratic family, proficient in the Six Arts of the Gentleman, and can switch between being a great general and a Zhongshu Ling at will.
Therefore, Gu Qingcheng was not merciless at all when using flowers.
Maybe I can change my title.
After going to the Northern Dynasties, he was still able to continue to be prominent with his "war exploits".
Gu Qingcheng didn't seem to notice the surprised look of several people.
Stab!
"This is a magical weapon that can reduce the damage of war horses!"
Gu Heng and others continued to wait at the inn.
Gu Qingcheng picked up the horseshoe and explained to his grandfather while making gestures.
"Okay! Okay!"
Gu Qingcheng thought for a while and pointed to her nails, "It should be similar to nails!"
Gu Heng was knowledgeable and had served as a Zhongshu Ling for many years, so he knew that there was a very terrifying natural phenomenon along the southern coast - hurricanes.
The knowledge that Gu Qingcheng learned in the world of novels that transcends time and space has been erased, so she cannot tell that horseshoes are a type of cuticle.
If you know there is danger, just avoid it!
This is not cowardice, but normal seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune.
Think about it, a six-year-old child or a woman, what big things can she do?
Gu Heng asked about the reason why his family is good at riding and shooting. Under normal circumstances, after running for seven or eight hundred miles, the horse's hoofs will wear out.
The strong wind is so powerful that it can overturn houses and destroy fertile fields.
The one said, "I have learned cooking skills."
It was spring when I left Beijing. On the road, I stopped and walked, stopped and walked.
Once they heard that she was "leading", Zheng Mo and others would subconsciously think that she was causing trouble.
"What other specialties do you have?"
Gu Heng watched the scene and couldn't help but nodded, "Aqing is right, horses really don't feel pain!"
There are celebrities who like donkeys braying, and there are crazy people who are obsessed with taking drugs and running away with fruit. Gu Qingcheng is just a blacksmith, which seems to be an "elegant thing"!
The other little girls couldn't help covering their mouths and snickering.
…
After purchasing enough supplies for two large bullock carts, Gu Qingcheng announced that it was over.
These days, there are not so many convenience stores and supermarkets as there were in later generations.
Gu Qingcheng:......
Gu Heng's eyes flashed with ambition.
Gu Qingcheng waved and called the chubby guest girl closer, pointing to the table in front of her, "Can you move?"
The little chubby girl looks about seven or eight years old. According to normal strength, she should be able to push more than ten kilograms of objects.
"able!"
The little chubby girl lifted up the solid wood desk with almost no effort!
