Datang Storyteller: Uncovering the Secret of Xuanwu Gate, Li Er was stunned

Chapter 26 Men Need Shoes, Horses Naturally Need Horseshoes

Qin Yu shook his head,

"Not exactly. The story I'm talking about is called "The Secret of Longevity" or "The Legend of the Double Dragon of the Tang Dynasty". I believe Brother Li can tell from the name. What I'm talking about is the story of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, not just the Sui Dynasty. .”

Li Jing looked puzzled,
"This... why do you want to tell the story of the Sui and Tang Dynasties?"

"I won't talk about the Sui Dynasty, but Tang...wouldn't it involve His Majesty today?"

Li Jing was afraid of scaring Qin Yu, so he didn't tell him that the ministers had already entered the palace and made several disturbances because of his script.

If you continue to talk, I'm afraid His Majesty won't be able to hold back.

Qin Yu smiled wryly, picked up the wine glass and touched Li Jing,

"I'm sorry, Brother Li. The reason why I can tell this script is that I have some embarrassment. Please forgive me."

Li Jing waved his hand,

"It's okay, if it's inconvenient to say it, I won't say it, I'm just a little worried for Brother Qin, in case Your Majesty..."

Qin Yu looked at Li Jing, and said secretly in his heart: Sure enough, it is right to make friends with someone in the court.

Li Jing chatted with him, just like the second master or the old grandson.

The old grandson had his nostrils in the sky all day long, looking down on people.

As for the second master, he is a fan of storybooks, and he wants to get a plot from him all day long, or he wants to get some benefits from him.

Especially when I heard that potatoes can produce a thousand catties per mu, I can't wait to stare out my eyes.

Not long ago, he brought his daughter-in-law to talk to him about potatoes and peanuts.

He is not stupid, why tell him?

He took it to earn money, but didn't distribute it to himself.

It's better to plant it in the backyard first, in case one day he is stabbed in front of Li Er for his anti-book thing, he can take it out to save his life.

Facing Li Jing's worried gaze, Qin Yu smiled and comforted him, "Brother Li, don't worry, if His Majesty pursues it, I will offer some treasures to see if I can get a chance to survive."

"Oh? Brother Qin still has such a treasure?"

To be able to survive, in Li Jing's opinion, this treasure must be extraordinary.

Qin Yu smiled,
"Actually, it's not a great treasure. It's just the potatoes I revealed in the storytelling before. Potatoes can be used as rice and vegetables, and the yield per mu is as high as a thousand catties. For the current Tang Dynasty, it is definitely good. thing."

"A thousand catties per mu?"

Li Jing was shocked.

He seems to have heard the topic of potatoes mentioned before. It is said that they are an overseas species, but they have been eaten up.

Qin Yu nodded.

"Isn't it all eaten? Don't you have any more?"

Qin Yu made a booing gesture to Li Jing.

"Brother, please keep it a secret for my younger brother. In fact, it's not that my younger brother refuses to hand it over to His Majesty, but that I've only just planted in the soil now, and it will take a few months to mature.

If it is exposed too early, it will not achieve the expected effect. It is better to wait for the right time. "

Li Jing nodded, full of admiration for Qin Yu, "Brother Qin, don't worry, if you don't talk about this matter, we will definitely not talk about it."

Qin Yu cupped his hands in thanks.

"Although it's the first time I've seen Brother Li today, I feel like we've hit it off and hated seeing each other so late. I'm going to give Brother Li a gift today, and it should be regarded as a meeting gift."

After Qin Yu finished speaking, Li Jing quickly refused.

"Brother Qin's words are wrong. Even if you send a meeting gift, it should be given by me, the eldest brother. How can you make Brother Qin spend money, no, no!"

"Brother Li, you don't need to be polite. My gift is not only for you, but also for the soldiers of the Tang Dynasty. So, don't refuse, brother."

After getting in touch with Li Jing for a while, Qin Yu found that Li Jing was very good.

He also really wants to be friends with him.

Besides, this gift is really not for Li Jing alone.

"Oh?"

Li Jing was moved, "For my Tang soldiers?"

Qin Yu nodded.

"If that's the case, then I will accept this gift with a straight face."

Hong Fu Nu and Mrs. Black and White also looked at Qin Yu curiously at this time, wondering what the gift he was talking about was.

Qin Yu smiled, got up and entered the room, found a pen and ink, drew a picture and handed it to Li Jing.

"What is this?"

Li Jing took the blueprint and saw that there was a semicircle drawn on the blueprint, thick in the middle, thin on both sides, and there were six holes in the middle, but he didn't recognize it.

In addition, there is a round thing with a long needle drawn next to it.

And Qin Yu marked the number on the side, writing a six.

Qin Yu pointed to the semicircular shape and explained,

"This thing is called a horseshoe. Its shape is the same as that of a horseshoe. It looks like an unsealed semicircle."

"The six holes in the middle are for nails." Qin Yu pointed to the nails drawn next to him and said, "That's the kind."

"horseshoe?"

"nail?"

Li Jing and Hong Fu Nu spoke in tandem.

Whether it was Li Jing, the red girl or the black and white lady present, they all went to the battlefield and killed the enemy.

Know how huge the loss of horses is after a war.

But what is a horseshoe?
With a refined smile on the corner of Qin Yu's mouth, he explained: "People know how to wear shoes for fear of their feet being worn out, so horses naturally need them too."

"Put this horseshoe on the horse's shoe to protect it."

Li Jing, Hong Funu and the others stared with big eyes in shock.

Shoes for horses, why didn't they think of that?
"But don't the horses hurt if you put a nail in the shoe?"

Mrs. Black asked.

In her perception, after a war, the consumption of horses is very high.

In addition to being killed by the enemy, more deaths were caused by the wear and tear of horseshoes.

Since wear and tear will kill the horse, wouldn't putting nails in his feet hasten the death of the horse?

Seeing everyone has an expression of thirst for knowledge.

Qin Yu continued to explain: "It's not as you imagined, the nails that put the horseshoes on the horses are not nailed into the soles of the horse's feet, but on the horse's nails.

It will not damage the horse's hooves.

Before installing, you can also trim and smooth the horse's nails, so that it will be much more comfortable to install the horseshoe.

Do you feel pain when you cut your nails? "

Qin Yu asked.

The crowd shook their heads.

He also instantly understood what Qin Yu meant, but whether this was the case still needed to be verified.

Li Jing held the drawing of the horseshoe, his hands trembling with excitement.

"Brother Qin, if what you said is true and the horseshoe can protect the horseshoe, then you have done a great job!"

Qin Yu waved his hand, "It's not a big achievement, it's a gift for Brother Li, it's a gift."

Li Jing didn't expect Qin Yu to be so generous, such a big credit, but he didn't care at all.

At this moment, he didn't want to think about it so much, he just wanted to go back quickly and find a blacksmith at home to make a pair and try changing the horse.

"So, thank you Brother Qin."

Li Jing thanked Qin Yu for giving him such an immeasurable gift, and he couldn't afford it anymore.

The only thing that can be done is to verify as soon as possible, and then let those who can afford the gift return the gift.
