Chapter 19

"Ministry Minister Yu Qing!" Su Boxiu opened his mouth to attract everyone's attention, and everyone fell silent.

"I see that you seem to have something to say, say it boldly."

Yu Qing stood up from the queue, saluted and said, "Your Majesty, this minister is asking for money for our Ministry of Industry."

As soon as these words came out, the Minister of Hubu spoke directly, "Silver? Your Ministry of Industry has been self-sufficient since before His Majesty ascended the throne. Now you want money? No!"

Yu Qing ignored it and just looked at Su Boxiu.

Su Boxiu pretended to suddenly understand and said, "Really, this is the rule for so many years."

"Your Majesty, does this mean that whether you make money or not is a matter for the Ministry of Industry?"

"Not bad!" Su Boxiu blurted out directly, "The Ministry of Industry is self-sufficient, as long as the tasks assigned by the court are completed, I don't care about the rest!"

"Okay, thank you, Your Majesty!" Yu Qing gritted his teeth and said, "Shangshu of the Ministry of War, give me ten thousand guan, and I will solve the problem of the worn out horse's hooves!"

This is the first time Yu Qing has spoken uprightly in the court, and it is also his first step in reorganizing the Ministry of Industry.

As soon as these words came out, the Minister of the Ministry of War directly said to Yu Qing, "I know you, Yuyang fought well!"

"But you know, when you said this, you said it as the minister of the Ministry of Industry and Engineering of Daxia. A gentleman's words are hard to follow, and court is no joke!"

Qian Shangshu from the household department joked directly, "Okay! I agree, [-] guan! Anyway, the household department can give [-] guan! Zhao Shangshu, this is your only hope."

Knowing that Zhao Shangshu of the Ministry of War was reminding himself, Yu Qing bowed his hands gratefully and said, "Thank you Zhao Shangshu! This is what my Ministry of Industry said. Give me [-] guan, and I will solve the problem, and you will not be deceived!"

Zhao Shangshu saw that Yu Qing really seemed to have a way to say loudly, "Qian Shangshu, your household department will not deny the account of [-] yuan, right?"

Qian Shangshu said with a smile, "It's hard to chase after a gentleman's words. This money is originally for your Ministry of War. I don't care how you want to spend it!"

"Okay! If that's the case, the old man will spend [-] yuan to buy your method!"

Yu Qing nodded, and said to Su Boxiu, "Your Majesty is also invited to witness, I am afraid that some people will not admit it at that time."

As he spoke, Yu Qing glanced at Qian Shangshu of the household department, which made everyone around him burst into laughter.

"Okay! I will guarantee you, so don't worry, no one will lie to you!" Su Boxiu was also happy to watch the excitement and agreed.

"My minister's method is in this package." Yu Qing knelt down and put the package on the ground, and there was the sound of clanging iron objects.

This is a weapon?The servant's eyes flustered and he shouted directly, "Guard, escort!"

Shouts sounded, and the officials who were not aware of the situation panicked, and Su Boxiu also stared at Yu Qing angrily.

Can't help but want to attack me?To assassinate me blatantly?
A group of soldiers in armor and holding weapons rushed in and surrounded Yu Qing.At this time, Yu Qing just opened the package, and several iron bars and nails appeared in front of everyone.

Only then did everyone see clearly what was in Yu Qing's package, the waiter blushed and lowered his head, Su Boxiu waved his hand and the soldiers all backed out.

"Ahem!" In order to ease the embarrassment, Su Boxiu coughed a few times and said, "Can this thing solve the problem?"

Yu Qing nodded, "This is a shoe, with this problem solved!"

"Pfft!" Qian Shangshu couldn't help laughing loudly, "Yu Shilang, why don't you see a doctor first, a few iron bars and nails are shoes? Hahaha."

Yu Qing nodded solemnly, "That's right, it's just that these are not human shoes, these are horse shoes."

"Nonsense! This is the first time this old man has heard that horses can wear shoes."

"Besides, if a horseshoe is as big as a horse's hoof, how big are the shoes?"

All of a sudden, there was a lot of discussion among the people in the court, some ridiculed, some doubted, some questioned, and some looked on coldly.

"I don't understand why no one has thought of a solution for such a simple thing. Human beings are afraid that walking will hurt their feet and invent shoes. Why can't horses wear shoes when their hooves are injured?"

"Speak nonsense, my son An dares to despise my Great Xia Chaotang!"

"Showing up the crowd, despising the officials and His Majesty!"

Zhao Shangshu stood there with a disappointed face. He had already reminded him, but he did not expect such a result.

Su Boxiu asked, "Yu Qing, what you just said about wearing shoes for horses was a joke?"

Yu Qing heard that Su Boxiu was planning to fool himself, "Report to Your Majesty, what I said is true, but why don't you believe me?"

"Then how do you prove it?" Qian Shangshu stood up and asked.

Yu Qing rubbed his nose and said, "You'll know if it works or not."

When everyone came outside the main hall, the servant brought a horse and handed it to Yu Qing.

Touching the horse's back, Yu Qing knew it was a war horse, but it was injured. Just now when he saw it coming over, as long as he stepped on a small stone or something, the war horse would tremble. It was obvious that the soles of his feet were too thin.

Yu Qing put down the horse, directly picked up the iron bar and began to nail it on the horse's shoe, and there was a sound of clanging iron for a while.

Hearing this voice, Qian Shangshu was inexplicably a little irritable, and some uneasiness came to his heart.

Yu Qing was very strong, and after a while, all four horseshoes were nailed up.Leading the horse, he stood up slowly, as if he was not used to the things under his feet, and the war horse was a little restless.

Yu Qing stroked the horse's back and said, "Which adult is willing to try?"

Looking at the arranged place not far away, the ground is covered with various sharp blades and gravel.Everyone could tell that it was a wounded horse, and it would definitely fall if it ran over like this. It was courting death.

Seeing that no one stood up, Yu Qing got on his horse without saying anything, turned his horse's head and rushed forward.

The wounded horse is also a war horse. Although it saw the swords and swords in front of it, it didn't retreat, and charged forward.

Su Boxiu sighed and closed his eyes, there is a price to be paid for being young and frivolous.

For a moment, there was a shrill horse cry, followed by the sound of clanging weapons.

Unexpected screams?Many people who had closed their eyes began to open their eyes curiously, and then looked at Yu Qing in shock.

Su Boxiu also opened his eyes, and saw that the horse was still standing there with Yu Qing on its back.

"Drive!" Yu Qing pinched the horse's belly with his legs, and the horse began to charge again, with the same clanging sound.

"Woo~" Yu Qing got off his horse and looked at everyone triumphantly, "Your Majesty, my lords. How are you?"

At this time, everyone was stunned, and they all leaned over to the horse's hoof to look over and over again.

The iron bars reflected a slight chill under the sunlight, and although the horseshoes were thin, there was no problem at all.

Looking at the unwounded horseshoe in his hand, Zhao Shangshu couldn't help but sighed, "Heroes are young, what a talent!"

As the minister of the Ministry of War, he knew what this meant. It meant that he could train the Great Xia cavalry with all his might, and he didn't need to reduce his training because of the horse problem.

"Where's Qian Shangshu?" Yu Qing shouted and looked around.
