"What is that horseshoe you are talking about? It can protect the horse's hooves from injury?"
When Li Shimin heard this, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Sure enough, if you have nothing to do at ordinary times, you are right to follow this brat as long as possible. You never know when you will discover something amazing.
When Wang Zi'an heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then he came to his senses.
Ah, this——
There were no horseshoes in the Tang Dynasty?
To be honest, he really didn't pay much attention to this issue in his previous life.
Seeing Li Shimin staring at him with bright eyes, Wang Zi'an put down his horse's hooves, straightened up and nodded.
"A small piece of iron that protects a horse's hoof. You can think of it as a shoe specially designed for horses..."
Shoes for horses——
“Do horses need shoes too?”
Hearing what he said was interesting, Chang Le jumped off the carriage to watch the excitement. He couldn't help but come over and asked with his pink and smooth face raised.
Ah, girl, let’s keep talking, don’t get so close. In broad daylight, your father, your grandfather and your possible future father-in-law are all watching——
The prince took half a step back without being able to detect it.
"Of course, people wear shoes to protect the soles of their feet, and horses wearing shoes can also protect their soles. You see, they not only have to walk by themselves, but sometimes they have to carry people on their backs or pull carts. If they don't wear shoes, their feet -
—Ahem, can your hooves bear it?"
Princess Changle nodded with deep understanding.
"So, all your horses are shoed?"
Wang Zi’an:……
Ah, girl, if you don’t know how to chat, just stop chatting, okay?
His horses were shod with shoddy horseshoes. He only found out today that horses in the Tang Dynasty were not shod.
Li Shimin, Li Yuan and others were so excited that they didn't notice the expression on Wang Zi'an's face at this time. Hearing this, they couldn't help but slap their thighs.
"Yes, yes, yes, quickly, unload your horse, let us see what a good thing this horseshoe is -"
Wang Zi’an:……
"Why are you messing around? You have nothing to do, right? You still have to rush to the pig farm - let's go, let's go..."
Without saying anything, he opened the curtain and got in the car directly.
Li Shimin, Li Yuan, Changsun Wuji:...
Isn't a military weapon that can protect the hooves of war horses and allow the court to save astronomical amounts of military expenses every year as important as a few pigs?
But, what else can I do——
Although I wanted to drag Wang Zi'an out right now to see if his so-called horseshoe was so magical, I had to hold it in and follow him to the pig farm.
Finally invited someone here!
The few imperial doctors who stayed behind were so moved that they almost cried when they saw that their own doctor had finally invited Mr. Wang Zi'an.
Of course, when they knew that their Majesty had come in person, they would really cry.
The suffering you have endured these days has not been in vain!
All of them felt as if they had been given a shot of blood, and the original frustration, decadence, and complaints were all gone.
It turns out that His Majesty attaches great importance to this pig farm. It turns out that he is not being squeezed out, but being promoted and reused!
Of course, with Qin Zhu's instructions, although several people were excited, they stupidly came up to bow their heads and bow.
On the contrary, Li Shimin couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, and looked at Qin Zhu with more friendly eyes.
This Qin Zhu is still very good at doing things and has a bright future.
"The reason why these pigs jump up and down, are extremely energetic every day, refuse to eat well, sleep well, and have a fishy smell in their meat is actually because of coughing and sex hormones--"
After taking a look at Princess Changle who was following her like a curious baby, Wang Zi'an couldn't help but cough dryly and change his words to a slightly more reserved tone.
When Qin Zhu, Qin Taiyi and others heard this, they couldn't help but look thoughtful.
Li Shimin, Li Yuan, Pei Ji, Changsun Wuji and others showed strange expressions.
"So, to solve this problem, it's actually very simple. Just castrate them when they are young. If they don't think about it since they are young, they will naturally become honest -"
"Ah, I know, just like those little chamberlains-"
When Princess Changle heard this, she immediately exclaimed.
"No wonder those little chamberlains are so obedient——"
As she said that, she couldn't help but glance regretfully at Wang Zi'an who was standing next to her.
Wang Zi’an:……
Keep talking, if you look at me again, I will fall out——
He took out the prepared tool kit, took out the sterilized needle, thread and scalpel, jumped into the pig pen and fished out a small pig seedling.
Ahem, okay, this pig is actually a bit big.
At this time, the second senior brother who was captured by Wang Zi'an didn't know what he was about to encounter. He was howling at the top of his lungs and struggling hard.
However, with its little strength, it was no match for Wang Zi'an, and it was easily suppressed.
I shaved, cut, cleaned the thing, sewed a few random stitches, simply disinfected it with alcohol, and threw it back.
The little pig probably realized what happened, and hummed with despair in his eyes before going back to his nest.
"Watch them, we just finished the operation, it's best not to let them lie in the mud——"
After Wang Zi'an finished speaking, he glanced at Qin Zhu, Qin Taiyi and others.
"Do you see clearly?"
Several people:……
So, is it that simple?
If that's the case, don't talk about us, just a few country folk can handle it cleanly.
"See clearly——"
His voice was loud and full of energy, and he almost startled Prince An.
If you can see it clearly, you can see it clearly. Why are you shouting so loudly?
Immediately, this group of energetic doctors, under the guidance of Wang Zi'an, each handled a few of them with their own hands, and soon there were several pairs of resentful eyes in the pigpen.
That'll be fine?
Will it grow into a fat, big and delicious pig?
Li Shimin couldn't help but feel ready to make a move. He immediately jumped into the pig pen and handled one of the pigs himself.
Of course, the second senior brother who unfortunately won the lottery was not so willing just because the emperor personally helped him get rid of his troubles in the world.
Raising pigs is not complicated, but raising pigs is not that simple either.
Even though they were here, Wang Zi'an was not in a hurry to go back. He immediately explained to them in detail some common sense that they need to pay attention to in raising pigs, as well as some common problems and treatment methods in pig raising, taking into account the situation.
These imperial doctors were a little disapproving at first, but soon the expressions on their faces changed.
Because Wang Zi'an was talking about some methods of preventing and controlling plague.
These methods may seem simple, but if you think about it carefully, they coincide with medical theory. It has a feeling of turning away the clouds and seeing the sun, opening up the world. Later, these imperial doctors excitedly interrupted Wang Zi'an's explanation and ran back to the office quickly one by one.
, took his own pen and paper.
Dip the tip of the pen with your tongue, like a primary school student taking notes, lest you miss a word.
Wang Zi’an:……
Sure enough, if any line of business wants to make some achievements, there are inevitable reasons.
It's not a fluke for this group of imperial doctors to sneak into the imperial hospital.
Wang Zi'an sighed inwardly and began to speak more seriously and meticulously.
"If the method you mentioned to prevent and control swine fever is applied to prevent general plagues, will it be effective?"
When Wang Zi'an was talking enthusiastically, Li Shimin, who was listening in, suddenly couldn't help but interrupt and asked.
"Ah, most of them should still work. After all, there are some similarities between humans and ordinary livestock. Of course, human plague prevention and control will be more complicated, and there will be more issues that need to be paid attention to-"
Wang Zi'an did not look back, explained casually, and then went on to talk about pig raising.
They didn't realize that Li Shimin and others behind him had opened their eyes wildly with surprise. Even Qin Zhu and others, who had been taking notes seriously, also opened their mouths in surprise.
