"Is this it?"
After seeing Song Hai off and looking at the closed door, Li Yannian felt that Song Hai was a good talker for the first time in his life.
How could the Li family, as a neighbor, not understand Song Hai, the boss of Beidian?
At that time, the Li family wanted to send their brothers to the frontier army, but in the end they were rejected by this person. After more than ten years of neighborly friendship, this person really didn't give you any face, not only not to the Li family, but also to the Li family. People from Qingzhou, my hometown, don’t even give me face.
In terms of military management and conduct, Song Hai and Niu Zhang are basically modeled after the same model. The difference is that Niu Zhang is relatively smooth, while Song Hai is relatively stiff.
For a long time, those who don't know Song Hai will think that Song Hai and Niu Zhang are working together again, one is a good person, the other is a bad person, you push me to resolve some human affairs, but everyone knows that, When Song Hai does things, he can't just win, but he can't tolerate sand at all.
Song Hai was able to stand up not because of his background, but because of his military exploits. A guy like Xia Heng who killed embryos and was regarded as a madman was still a preschooler in front of Song Hai.
Let’s not talk about distant places, let’s talk about the past few days. Who dares to imagine a third-grade military boss personally leading a team of 300 people out of the border, onto the grassland, and into the territory of the Tatar tribe? This is no longer courageous. The problem is simply that talented people are bold!
"Didn't you see?" Fang Fang patted Li Yannian on the shoulder, "A third-grade military attache, Yuhou of the North Palace, who doesn't know how to behave, doesn't understand choices, and relies solely on military merit, has no chance of sitting in that position!"
The world of martial arts has never been about fighting and killing, but about human nature. The people in the court are all human beings. There is a saying behind what kind of people can be used and what kind of people should be placed in what position.
A selfless person can only do specific things and is not qualified to take charge of the overall situation.
"Fine!"
Li Yannian learned, really learned, "But it's about the racecourse!"
"Go and buy it. What can't you buy with money? But this racecourse cannot be listed in the trading market. It must be separated and run in a cooperative mode. It will be separated after we leave!"
Horse farms and pastures both occupy pastures, but there are differences between pastures.
If you want to train a war horse, first of all, the pasture must be large, but the area is not enough. When running, no matter how good a stallion you get, if it is not well-trained, it will eventually be scrapped. Secondly, the field must have a lot of terrain, and it is best to collect mountains, rivers, and brooks and shoals. , followed by pasture. It is best to have wild medicinal herbs in the pasture. If not, you have to sow the seeds yourself.
The older the horse farm, the more expensive it is, and it will not be easily circulated. Even if it is circulated, it is only in the hands of a few people. Without a certain amount of capital, you can't buy it if you want to.
"Buy it. It may take a while. Of course, you can keep it in our home first. As long as it's time to breed..." Li Yannian smiled.
After dismissing Li Yannian, Fang Fang returned to the study.
Compared with the purchase of the racecourse, the most important thing right now is the location of the Yamen.
The Sanjinyuan at the foot is a place to stay, and it is okay for everyone to live in it. However, in recent days, guests have been coming to the door, and the Sanjinyuan built as a residence does not seem so suitable.
Need to reselect office space.
Although Qinggu Tun is good, it can only be used as a trading place, but it cannot be used as the residence of the futures yamen. The reason is simple. Qinggu Tun is safe, which is also relative to the household market.
With more than 10,000 taels of silver, more than 1,000 people have opened a business on the grassland. Together with the transactions, the silver circulating in the market can be at least hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands more.
At this time, the money tickets must be separated. At most, some daily exchange chips should be stored in Qinggutun, and more should be stored in Shangqu City. After all, no one knows whether the horse bandits will unite for money. Can the grassland ministries tolerate it if they don’t unite?
In the Song Dynasty, which had strong financial strength, this kind of thing could be eliminated by finding a few big bank accounts, but in the Wu Dynasty, you could only dig holes and build warehouses yourself. Calculated with a million taels of silver deposits, it would take at least ten acres of land, and with a complete set of buildings, it is impossible to have twenty or thirty acres of land.
The key lies in Shangqu City, preferably the inner city.
The northern part of the city is already considered a huge city, with a population of more than 200,000. In midsummer, the flow of people brought by the household market can reach 300,000, but the resources in the city are limited after all.
Thirty-two squares are planned in the inner city. The North Hall Wanhu Mansion, Guangchang County Sheriff's Mansion, Guangchang Duwei's Mansion, Shangqucheng Yamen, Yanghe County Yamen, City Husi and other government offices have already occupied eleven squares. In the city's area, six squares are occupied by commerce. If we deduct the industries of the powerful clans in Guangchang County, there are really not many venues to choose from.
Some options may seem like options, but in fact there are a lot of troubles behind them.
"Is it really going to be built in the outer city?"
Bank, no matter where you put it, it will not be safe. An extra wall will provide more psychological protection!
…
Naturally, no one knew that Fang Fang was upset. Huang An and his group were surrounding Qin Ke's horse, discussing happily.
The Qinke war horse lived up to its reputation as a top war horse. When compared with the Mongolian war horse at a close distance, the big ones did not have one or two laps, but at least five laps.
When driving this kind of war horse, many Mongolian war horses cannot cross the threshold or cross the ditch, which is no longer a problem.
"What a good horse. With this jumping ability, it can easily pass obstacles no higher than one meter and ditches no higher than four meters!"
"Be conservative, have you seen that pit? It's three meters three. The jump just now was at least seven meters, and it jumped more than two meters in the air!"
"How do you think the Qinke people cultivated this kind of war horse? With this horse, paired with our knights, put on scale armor, and went on the battlefield, would they still kill indiscriminately?"
No matter where Huang An and others choose horses, they naturally attract a lot of spectators. Countless people lie on the guardrail and comment on Qinke's horse.
In the past, only a small number of these horses existed in military racecourses. Many people have heard of them, but not many people have actually seen them.
As the county town of Guangchang, Shangqu City is a distribution and transit point for important commodities in the North. There are a large number of horse farms surrounding Shangqu City. There are also smart people here who provide horse rentals for caravans, exchange and trade, and gather a large number of horse-savvy people. people.
"It would be great if breeding could be opened up!"
Top war horses, that's not what they can think of. Like the most popular pure-blooded descendant of the Flame King recently, even if it is just a mare, there are countless people in Shangqu City who want to pay a high price to have a baby with them the year after tomorrow. As long as they don't There are people who are willing to pay more than a thousand taels.
"What are you thinking about? The diligent war horse is not as good as the pure-blooded descendants of the Flame King, but he knows all about his advantages. In order to ensure that the war horse does not weaken, these people will definitely make sufficient preparations. Even if you can afford the money, people I won’t agree either!”
"Stop talking, here we go again. Is this a test of coordination?"
As he spoke, ten Qinke horses stood in a row under the command of the knight. With a whistle, the ten Qinke horses began to accelerate. The rumble of horse hooves broke through the sky. They ran very fast, and then started to jump, high jump, no matter how fast they jumped. Those who understand understand art, and those who understand understand the art.
