Chapter 272

Xuzhou Government Office fully supported and allocated personnel. In a few days, Donghai Niuma Trading Company was officially established. There were more people in the private sector who sold cattle and horses, but most of them were made in one hand and one hand. Some of them belonged to the yarn shop, which was eaten at both ends, found customers for sellers, and found sources of goods for customers. Only Donghai Niuma Trading Company was engaged in credit sales. Lu Bu had a very high positioning and was a business directly under the governor's office.

Donghai Niuma Da Trading Company is an official institution. In addition to selling large animals, it also shoulders the role of balancing market prices to prevent the prices of large animals from rising or falling too quickly.

Large animal transactions, even private transactions, must be registered by the government and paid a small amount of taxes. Like house transactions, they are the source of taxes and fees for government transactions, but the tax points are set very low.

Yanjiazhuang, in the southern part of Pingyi County, Taishan County, is only more than one hundred miles away from Teng Kingdom.

Yan Laowu got up early and drank some porridge, so he carried an iron pickaxe and a shovel up the mountain. There were still a few acres of mountain land that would be deeper, so that sweet potatoes would be grown in spring next year.

"Uncle Wu is early."

"Uncle Wu is early."

People kept saying hello along the way. Although Yan Laowu was not the patriarch, the patriarch had to be polite to him.

Yan Laowu has a son named Yan Fei who went to the army last year.

I never thought that this time I went to the tiger into the mountains and dragons swimming in the sea. This kid could dig birds at home and fish in the river. He was outstanding in the recruit training camp, and the feather arrow shot accurately. He was promoted to an archer archer three months later. Later, he went south to Guangling. The journey was long, so he had less information.

A letter from half a month ago said that Yan Fei made great contributions in the battle against Hefei and was promoted to centurion, that is, the chief of the town. He was rewarded with twelve stagnant money. Yan Fei felt sorry for his father Yan Laowu and did not ask for money, so he said he wanted to give his father a livestock.

Yan Laowu just arrived at the ground and ran over to a young man. He was the child from the neighbor's house in the front yard.

"Uncle Laowu, the official has come to your house and said he has something to come to you."

"The official? Did you say something?" Yan Laowu didn't understand.

"It should be a good thing, the government officials are very kind."

"Let's go, then go back quickly."

Yan Laowu trotted and soon returned home.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the courtyard, I saw two horses tied to the post station, but the people thought that this was from the government.

"Two officials, what's the matter with looking for villains?"

"Uncle Yan is polite. Your son is now the governor. He exchanged his military merits for you. He will draw lots in Teng Kingdom the day after tomorrow. Remember to go there."

Yan Laowu was very happy. He had never raised a horse in his family for eight years. A mare could give birth to a foal. With him, he would have a treasure pot.

Yan Laowu rubbed his hands excitedly, but then he thought: "Teng Country, where is Teng Country? I have never been there."

"Uncle, don't worry, there will be a carriage to Teng Kingdom tomorrow, a carriage to pull goods. If you want to take it, go to the inn tomorrow and wait along the Daguan Road, and you will arrive."

"Okay, then, I'll go to the inn tomorrow."

The next day, Yan Laowu went to the inn and took a carriage to Teng Kingdom. He arrived in the evening. There were quite a few people coming nearby. Because this year, many outstanding soldiers from the battle against Youzhou, Hefei, Jinan County, and Bohai County have made great achievements. A horse is equivalent to twelve stagnants, and the price is still very low. Many soldiers said they wanted a horse to send to their families, and Lu Bu agreed.

When he woke up early, Yan Laowu had a breakfast, rice porridge and pickles, which were so delicious.

Then, in groups of twenty people, we went to see the horse.

In the enclosure, twenty horse-haired brushes were smooth and smooth, including red horses, flower horses, and green horses. They were about the same size.

A manager came out and introduced: "These horses are about three years old, with similar weight and appearance. They are all healthy mares and can have foals within one or two years. For the sake of notarization, we will use the method of drawing lots today to determine who is the number."

Mark the horse and draw lots.

Yan Laowu prayed for his good luck, but the result was still very good, and he caught a red horse.

They each received their own horses, each of them was full of joy.

This time, almost more than 300 horses were distributed.

Zhu Bin appeared and announced on it: "Dear uncles and brothers, you have received the horses. This is a great thing, but you can't be in a hurry. You need to have three days of training. These three days of food and accommodation must be controlled carefully and listen carefully. Raising horses is not that easy. Only by learning skills can you raise a good horse."

Everyone felt relieved after hearing this, and they were worried about how to raise horses. Unexpectedly, the troops were also responsible for training horses.

Some of them are also rough and think they understand why: "What's the point of raising this horse? Isn't it just eating grass and drinking water?

"There are big differences between raising horses and raising cattle and donkeys. First of all, safety is the three-pointer of the horse. The horse is irritable, especially the aggressiveness of the living people. The hind legs are very fatal. Once the kick is really killed or injured, it must be taken seriously. It must be taken seriously."

Everyone suddenly realized that raising horses is not careless, and they cannot just see the benefits or the risks. It would be very distressing to raise such a big horse if it is broken.

Yan Laowu lived here with others and patiently learned horse raising techniques.

I learned a lot in these three days, including grass that can be eaten, grass that cannot be eaten, water that cannot be used, and water that cannot be used. Then I also taught horses, horses to pull carts, and horses to cultivate the land. These horses are all trained horses, and they all came to grow crops. I learned a little bit more. In three days, I learned about it.

Although Yan Laowu is not young, he is over fifty years old, but when he was young, he was also a fierce man. He had fought wolves in the south mountain, badgers in the north mountain, and he caught hedgehogs in the sorghum field. He learned how to ride horses in three days. Unfortunately, there are rules on the horse farm, and he did not give saddles when selling horses.

Yan Laowu happily rode his horse out of the farm. He didn't go far, but happened to meet a market where people came and went. The people in Teng Country are relatively wealthy. There are donkeys and ox-paired hooves on the edge of the market. There are also saddles sold. The civilian saddles are all soft-padded saddles, which are not expensive. This autumn, it is not short of money to sell sweet potatoes to dry. The boss who sells saddles collected some capital when he heard that they were military families.

Yan Laowu bought a saddle and rode home slowly.

Yan Laowu was so beautiful along the way. He felt that the mountains and rivers were beautiful, and he was beautiful everywhere. He was in his fifties, and he seemed to be ten years younger again, and his whole body was full of energy.

I was happy, and the horse whip in my hand shook and put it down again. I must cherish the horse's strength when rushing for a long journey. I have to rest for a while after walking for dozens of miles. I must not drive away the horse at will. Once it is injured, it is extremely difficult to recover.

Yan Laowu was just a representative of the military family, and distributed hundreds of horses to the families of soldiers who made great achievements, and not just finished it. Later, free breeding and medical treatment services were also provided.
