Seeing the other party nodding kindly towards him, Cheng Chubi couldn't help but feel alarm bells ringing in his heart, and he quickly nudged Li Ke beside him with his elbow.
"Brother Xian, what's wrong with your father? He smiles so hypocritically. Is he trying to do something else?"
Li Ke's eyes squinted, and he also admired his father's proud smile, and couldn't help but feel a beat in his heart.
"Little brother, I don't know. Maybe my father still holds a grudge against you, Brother Chu Bi, for cutting square bamboo in the palace."
"Isn't your father too narrow-minded? There are just a few square bamboos with obvious problems.
Besides, the bamboo forest must have two or three acres of land, is it worth being so fussy about it?"
Hearing Brother Chu Bi's angry complaints, Li Ke couldn't help but laugh out loud, as if Brother Chu Bi, how big your mind can be.
"Brother Xian, why are you smiling?" Cheng Chubi, who was broad-minded, looked at this brother with an unkind expression. He always felt that this boy's smile had evil intentions.
"My little brother just heard my father's hearty laughter and recalled the warm scenes of the deep love between father and son in the past."
Seeing Li Ke's nostalgic look, as if he was really reminiscing about the past, Cheng Chubi grinned happily.
"Okay, dear brother, you should have such a positive and optimistic spirit. Next time your father whips you, think more about him, and you won't feel so much pain."
"!!!" The warm smile on Li Ke's face froze for an instant, and Li Dejiao on the side hugged his belly and laughed wildly. Wu Mo was so frightened that he thought his master had gone crazy.
"Brother Chu Bi, please try your best to be a human being and speak more human words, okay?!"
Li Ke wanted to pick up the smelly socks and stuff them into the mouth of this vicious-tongued brother.
While the good brothers were criticizing each other, the horsemen who were studying not far away were all concentrating on their studies.
As long as you strictly follow the procedures, to be honest, artificial insemination technology can be said to be quite simple.
Seeing Cheng Sanlang and Li Ke still bickering and watching these two people's various language arts really opened Li Dejiang's eyes.
I finally understand why the elders prefer to convince people with force rather than virtue when they see these two monster moths. It is really noisy.
In less than half an hour, all the mares had been artificially inseminated.
Li Shimin silently made an estimate and couldn't help but secretly marvel. If there were enough stallions, one hundred horses would be ready in half an hour, and he would be busy for four hours a day.
Wouldn't it be possible to breed eight hundred mares in one day, eight thousand in ten days, eighty thousand in one hundred days, and two hundred and forty thousand in three hundred days...
When he thought of this, Li Shimin felt deeply that as long as he worked hard enough.
#####
Maybe within three to five years, we will be able to see countless improved horses galloping across the vast land of the Tang Dynasty.
"My dear son-in-law, please hand over the affairs of Luoyang County Government to subordinate officials these days."
"Starting from tomorrow, I will send a group of smart and capable officials from the Taipu Temple and the AM Teng Bureau to learn the art of artificial insemination from you."
"There is nothing wrong with this son-in-law, but we must ensure that there are enough mares."
Cheng Chubi frowned, his expression looking a little worried, as if he was a skilled woman who couldn't make a meal without rice.
"If you really want to practice and ensure the pregnancy rate, you have to prepare at least four to five times the number of mares starting from today."
"That is to say, we need about four to five hundred mares, and we will need to increase the number by about ninety horses every day."
"Can Luoyang really guarantee supply?"
Li Shimin turned his head and looked at Wang Siqing and Liubao'er from the Shangcheng Bureau.
"Your Majesty, there are 5,000 horses in Xiyuan Racecourse. There are 50 Persian stallions in Dawan, nearly 500 pregnant horses, and about 2,800 geldings. The rest are all females."
"There should be close to 1,500 people of suitable age to conceive. In addition, the army of the Sixteenth Guards is stationed in Luoyang. Now there are ten new pastoral supervisors around Luoyang, with 50,000 horses..."
"AMTD currently has a total of 580 Dawan Persian horses, including 18 stallions, 70 pregnant horses, more than 270 geldings, and 222 unpregnant females."
"My dear son-in-law, during your teaching, you thought that breeding should be better. Please tell me your opinion."
"My father-in-law, if not, you can gather all the stallions and mares of appropriate age."
"Send more manpower to my son-in-law. My son-in-law is only responsible for artificial semen collection and insemination, as well as horse feed and teaching how to make a female horse come into heat.
As for other regulations, I believe that both Taipus Temple and AMTD Bureau are more professional than me."
After hearing Cheng Sanlang's words, both Wang Siqing and the Liubao'er had strange expressions on their faces. They didn't expect that Cheng Sanlang would have such an easy time talking to him.
This is equivalent to an opportunity to share the credit with Taipu Temple and Shancheng Bureau.
They were happy, but Li Ji was not happy and stared at Cheng Sanlang.
"You kid, don't forget that there is also a military department where I work, and a driving department below. There are also many people there who are good at this job."
#####
Seeing Li Ji blowing his beard and staring, Li Shimin laughed, patted the famous general of the Tang Dynasty and said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, I know it in my heart, I won't let the Ministry of War suffer any loss."
"In addition, please let His Highness King Wu and Brother Dezhai stay here to help my son-in-law. After all, it is almost time for Jinyang to give birth, and my son-in-law..."
When he heard that the matter was related to Jinyang, Li Shimin certainly did not dare to neglect it and nodded solemnly.
Li Dejiang saw the look Cheng Sanlang was giving him, so he had no choice but to brace himself and salute Li Shimin.
"Weichen, I am willing to help Cheng Sanlang first, but..."
"Okay, okay, Li Erlang, as long as you are willing to help, then I will appoint you as the Shaoqing of the School Inspector Taipusi. When you are done with your work and you still don't want to be an official, just tell me."
Li De awarded this young man who did not want to be an official and only liked to wander around, but he had repeatedly made extraordinary achievements for the Tang Dynasty.
Naturally, Li Shimin didn't want to be harsh, so he arranged a trap for this kid with a smile. If you like it, you can keep it. If you don't, it's up to you if you want to continue the relationship later.
Regarding Li Shimin's arrangement, Li Dejiang naturally had nothing to say and quickly bowed to Li Shimin to express his gratitude.
Li Shimin raised his head and looked at the mares that had finished the process without any physical contact with the stallions and were led away by their handlers with confused expressions on their faces.
Li Shimin suddenly had a flash of inspiration and couldn't help but raise his hand and flick his forehead, revealing a meaningful smile.
The big hand fell on Cheng Sanlang's strong and generous shoulders, and his eyes swept over Li Dejiang and his son Li Ke.
"Okay, I have something urgent to do. I have to take the first step. My dear son-in-law...well done. You are also very good..."
Seeing Li Shimin turning around to leave, Cheng Chubi hurriedly said, "My father-in-law, shouldn't the ban on my son-in-law and His Highness be lifted?"
