Chapter 173 I Treat You as My Daughter-in-Law, You Report Me?
Looking at Duo Jinniang’s leaving figure.
Qin Yu turned to look at Shen Binglan with a confused look on his face, "Damn it, Miss Shen, I'm not good enough to you? Which time didn't I buy you a gift? I will also remember this time for selling salt.
Your benefits are indispensable."
"You...why are you still complaining to me!"
Shen Binglan glanced at Qin Yu, said nothing, and rode out of the house.
Qin Yu hurriedly chased after him, "Wait a minute, we haven't finished talking yet. I treat you as my wife, and you're going to tell me a story?"
moment.
Qin Yu galloped down the street with his horse, a chill running down his spine, "Miss Shen, don't be angry. I was joking with you, why did you draw your sword!"
Shen Binglan's eyes were indifferent, she raised her sword from behind and galloped on her horse, "Young disciple!"
...
Royal Palace.
In front of Huide Hall.
Qin Yu stood beside the horse, panting and sweating profusely.
Shen Binglan looked at him coldly from the side.
at the same time.
Xiao Nan walked over from the side, looked at Qin Yu, and asked doubtfully: "Brother-in-law, what's wrong with you?"
Qin Yu waved his hand, "Huh...no...it's okay..."
Come to see Xiao Nan.
Shen Binglan then put down the Qingfeng Sword in his hand, and his eyes returned to their indifferent look.
"Brother-in-law, what do you want from your father today?"
Xiao Nan didn't think much and looked at Qin Yu and continued to ask.
Qin Yu pointed to the horse's hoof, "You'll know just by looking at it, it's a good thing."
Xiao Nan was stunned for a moment, then lifted one of the horse's legs.
Qin Yu's eyebrows relaxed and he asked again: "By the way, are our musicians and dancers in place?"
Xiao Nan nodded, looked around, and whispered: "It's in place. I personally went to the Ministry of Etiquette to select it. There are more than sixty dancers and a band of musicians, a dozen of whom are barbarian dancers."
Qin Yu raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said with a smile: "Okay you!"
"That's right!"
Xiao Nan puffed up his chest and said, "Don't worry about my brother-in-law who works, but their monthly money will be counted on us."
Qin Yu: "..."
He really didn't expect that Emperor Wei would be so stingy.
"It doesn't matter."
Qin Yu waved his hand, "We can still afford this amount of money. From now on, we will spend ten days a month in Jiaofangsi and twenty days listening to music in the East Palace. This is a reasonable life."
Xiao Nan grinned and said with a smile: "Hehehehe...Brother-in-law is wise, I think so too."
As he said that, he looked at the horse's hoof with a confused look on his face and said doubtfully: "Brother-in-law, why is there a piece of fast iron stuck to the hoof of your horse? I'll help you knock it out."
Qin Yu hurriedly said: "Don't, it's a good thing. I nailed it on specially."
Xiao Nan looked confused, "You... why did you nail the iron piece to the horse's hoof?"
The two of them were talking.
Wei Huang, Qin Wenyao, Tao Xing, Qin Feng, Meng Zhan and others walked out of the palace.
"Good son-in-law, you have researched something, and you are so mobilized to call me out. If the thing is not good, I will not be happy."
Emperor Wei looked at Qin Yu with a smile in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, it's worth every penny. You'll have to take the initiative to reward me with something later."
Qin Yu patted his horse, full of confidence.
"oh?"
Emperor Wei suddenly became interested and said with joy, "If you are so confident, you can't go wrong. Come on, let us old guys see it."
At the same time, all humerus ministers gathered around.
Qin Yu lifted up a horse's hoof and said, "Look here, everyone. This thing is called a horseshoe. It is a simple horse shoe specially nailed to the horse's hoof."
"The craftsmanship is simple, the forging is easy, and the installation is labor-saving. It only requires a small cost, and you can let the horse run as fast as you want, chase stars, and enjoy silky smoothness!"
Enjoy silky smoothness?
Hiss~
Why does it suddenly feel weird?
After listening to Qin Yu's words, he looked at the horseshoes on the horses' hooves.
Emperor Wei and several generals were shocked.
They naturally understood Qin Yu's intentions and thoughts.
Many war horses in the army were forced to retire and became workhorses, many of which were caused by excessive wear and tear on the horses' hooves.
This is an unavoidable problem.
Cavalry training requires riding horses. Training too hard will cause the horses' hooves to wear out.
But without training, it will be difficult to improve the cavalry's combat capabilities.
The Wei Dynasty also lacked war horses, which was an endless cycle of problems.
This is the same reason that many armies have low combat effectiveness.
Soldiers are trained very hard, and they must consume more food, and the country's food and grass are consumed quickly.
Therefore, in order to save food and grass, many armies do not train much on weekdays, and most of them still need to farm.
This is the limitation of this era.
Emperor Wei's eyes were filled with joy, he nodded, and said with a smile: "Good son-in-law, don't tell me, this inconspicuous gadget of yours really has the potential to bring about subversive changes to our cavalry."
"Come and explain to everyone what you mean."
Emperor Wei felt more and more that a small horseshoe had a big effect.
Qin Yu glanced at the crowd and spoke slowly, "The reason is actually very simple. A horse's hoof is actually composed of two parts of horn. The lower layer of horn is harder, mainly due to friction with the ground, while the upper layer is softer."
"But no matter how hard the horn of the horse's hoof is, it is not as hard as the ground. Therefore, in the friction between the horse's hoof and the ground, the horse must be injured. This is also the reason why some horses in the army are retired early."
"So, in order to solve this problem, I specially researched this thing, horseshoe! It can not only protect the horse's hoofs and reduce wear and tear. It can also enhance the grip of the horse's hoofs, allowing the horse to run more steadily, and can maintain
The strength of a horse’s feet.”
"In addition, it also saves a lot of labor and time in maintaining horse hooves."
As he spoke, he pointed to the horse beside him and said: "This is a war horse that became a pack horse because of damaged hoofs. In fact, the damage to its hoofs is not too great, but it can only be retired because it lost its front hoof.
The probability is very high.”
"Everyone knows that on the battlefield, when a Chinese cavalry is charging, the consequences of a horse staggering are serious. It affects not only the person, but the cavalry behind him, and even the rhythm of the battle."
"But with this horseshoe, we can not only delay the retirement of war horses, but also allow many war horses to return to the battlefield!"
Hear this.
Only then did Qin Wenyao and all the civil servants react.
A small horseshoe can have such a big effect.
They looked at Qin Yu in disbelief and were very shocked.
Such a simple thing, which no one had discovered for thousands of years, was actually studied by Qin Yu.
"Hahaha......"
Emperor Wei laughed loudly, "Good! Very good! You are worthy of being my son-in-law! You are worthy of being the good son of Wei!"
As he said that, he looked around at the humerus and said, "Look, this is called sharing the country's worries, and this is the attitude to solve problems!"
