Chapter 28 – Longhorse Chang'An

The equipment purchased by Li Yin was still relatively close to the technological level of the early Republic of China. For the people in the Tang Dynasty, it wasn't too difficult to adapt to such equipment. Everything is manual, without a lot of buttons and data.

Of the three workshops, Li Yin was the most worried about the paper workshop. No need to worry about the wine shop. The finished refiner could easily bring along a group of people with the old foundation of the palace. It was empty, and even if the paper was made, these slaves were not qualified to print. Li Yin asked, none of those five hundred slaves could read.

The papermaking equipment Li Yin bought was mainly a large cooking pot, sieve, paper making tank, press barrel, wood grinder, and other equipment. All of these equipment are operated manually. The actual papermaking process was similar, but the equipment was more advanced than the Tang Dynasty. Among them, Li Yin specifically purchased white lime and alkali in bulk. These things are very cheap. Li Yin bought many at once and put them in the warehouse, enough for the paper mill to use for a year or half.

Regarding how to teach these slaves how to make paper, Li Min specifically asked Lu Boyan to move a group of paper craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry, and asked them to teach them some basic things, he said, like hitting the pulp, making paper, and so on. . They were able to make paper from the Tang Dynasty. As for newsprint for making newspapers and magazines, once they got used to paper making, Li Yin would teach them the raw materials and methods.

Paper making is not something that happens overnight, it can only be done slowly. Now Li Yin is depressed about something else – horseback riding.

Born a prince, if he could not ride a horse, he would definitely be laughed at by others, but Li Yin absolutely could not.

Horseback riding was already fashionable in the Tang Dynasty, even some women were also used to riding horses in the streets. Every time he sat in the carriage, Li Yin was extremely envious when he saw another horse galloping. This time he was determined to learn this skill.

Li Yin said she wanted to ride a horse. Jin Daqian immediately asked his servants to take out a group of red horses from the horsemen. The famous sweat and blood horse, after the conquest of Taiwan, the Tang Dynasty confiscated a large number of warhorses, including many sweat and blood horses, from which the Tang Dynasty confiscated a large number of war horses, general Li Jing personally escorted hundreds of Dawan horses to Chang'an and gave them to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin was very happy that Yu also did not forget his sons, and each of the older sons gave a horse.

If you don't know how to ride a horse, you should find someone to teach you. Li Yin had no choice but to find Cheng Huailiang, an idiot, as her teacher. It's a ghost to play with this guy. After all, Li Yin was a good hunter in the past, and her riding skills were also considered first, to Cheng Huailiang's doubt, Li Yin's explanation was also very simple, her head was injured, as well, so he forgot about it.

"Your Majesty, please get on the horse!" Cheng Huailiang laughed for a long time, but he still acted like a teacher to Li Yin.

Stepping on the stirrup to ride his horse, Cheng Huailiang took control and led his horse around the courtyard several times, saying that he wanted to let him find the feeling first. Immediately do strenuous exercise, this will surprise the horse, be sure to tighten the harness, check the circumference occasionally to prevent looseness, the rest is almost the same as driving, concentration, and avoid holes in time.

After searching for it, I felt it. Cheng Huailiang jumped on the horse and started teaching by hand again. This shocked Li Yin. Cheng Huailiang was fat on the outside and skinny on the inside, just like his father.

After learning the basics, Li Yin could only rely on herself for the rest. Riding the horse, Li Yin shook the reins and urged her horse to move forward, turn around, stop, and jump.

A galloping horse is a dream in every man's heart. Basically, after he got it, Li Yin became addicted to riding. He started training on horseback every day when he woke up. Originally he was in the palace courtyard, and slowly he started driving on the road.A few days later, Li Yin was able to race outside Chang'an City on horseback.

"I don't have to take the train anymore!" A gust of wind passed through my ears, and the trees on both sides quickly retreated. "Ouch!" Shouted Li Yin, revealing his pride in his heart, this was a bend on horseback In the era of shooting bows and eagles, a man had to exercise.

After driving outside the western city for a while, Li Yin entered from the Chunming gate of Chang'an city and headed straight for the horse market in the western market. During the Zhenguan period, to face the Turks, the Tang Dynasty horse administration rose, and many nobles were happy to raise horses, but Li Shimin used to control the monthly salary of Prince Liang's house, and the palace did not have much money to collect famous horses. Just like people who like cars like to collect famous cars, people who like horses certainly have a hobby of collecting famous horses. Li Yin was in the middle of an explosion, and wanted to go to the horse market to buy some healthy horses, first to enrich the palace stables, and then to buy some healthy horses, and secondly to equip a bunch of healthy horses for each of the palace maids. , Just by thinking about it, Li Yin arrived at the horse market.

“A powerful Hequ horse can travel thousands of miles a day, with ten copper coins for a horse. There is no such shop in the village!”

“Horses in bulk for sale..”

"..."

Li Yin led the red boy and walked in the horse market, surrounded by the sound of peddling one after another, and the horse dealer stood in front of his horse and continued to reach out to attract customers. In the past few days, he had not only learned to ride horses, but also learned to recognize horses. His gaze constantly glided over the color of the horse's feathers, face, posture, and ears.

“This young man holds a stack of hard-earned BMWs. It can be seen that he was someone who knew horses. How about seeing those horses?” Li Yin was walking when a horse dealer appeared from behind and said out loud.

Li Yin turned her head back and saw that this was a barbarian-clothed horse dealer, with a rough face and dark skin, "Oh, what kind of nice horse do you have?"

The barbarian said: "Without a good horse, how dare I stop the young master?"

Li Yin became interested and said, "Please lead the way!"

Following the barbarians to a remote corner of the horse market, Li Min saw dozens of fat and powerful prairie horses. These horses have shiny hair, small ears and a large nose, straight and protruding chests, sturdy nails, and strong muscles. The rare horse.

Li Yin fell in love with these horses at first sight. Now that the palace business was on the rise, the servants and nurses would often run to and fro, so the efficiency of the horses would naturally be much higher.

"How much are these horses worth?"

"Fifteen blows!"

"It's very expensive!" Li Yin fell silent, "The Hequ horse was called the ten peat horse!"

“Hehe, I thought the young master was an expert, but I didn't expect that because of my poor eyesight. How could those domestic horses that were fed animal feed compare to my prairie horses growing on the prairie! Hu Shang said unhappily.

Li Yin thought about it for a moment, and he was the only horse of the highest quality in this circle, and said: "I want all your horses!"

"Wait!" As soon as Li Yin's voice fell, a son came with a young man, "I will buy sixteen horses, sell these horses to me!"

Li Yan frowned, and said unhappily: "My sister, everything comes first, first come first, I have already reached an agreement with this merchant, you are rather unkind.
