Chapter 164

    "Horse! Horse! A horse loses the country!"


    Li Shimin looked at the front page headline of Ink magazine, silently recited Merton''s quotation of Shakespeare, and couldn''t help feeling very much!


    The horseshoe is like a layer of window paper. It will break when poked. Since the Mohist village has adopted the horseshoe, it will certainly spread. It''s better to make it public than the Mohist village itself.


    So in the latest issue of Ink magazine, Merton used the story of a horse losing the country to promote horseshoes.


    "A nail damages a horse and a horse loses the country. It''s really a thought-provoking story!" empress Chang sun also sighed. She is also a familiar reader of poetry and books. Of course, she knows the truth contained in it. piece


    "This little catfish can really toss around and make a blind show!"


    Li Shimin said angrily, but there was a trace of acid in his tone.


    A simple incident of injuring a horse was made twists and turns and ups and downs by Mohist Zi. First, 500 horses were injured, then combined with the "horse theory", and then there was the method of wound suture, which led to the injury experiment of doctors. Finally, a horseshoe was made and a horse lost the country.


    In the end, he took advantage of the advantage and let him out of the limelight.


    Empress Chang sun could not help chuckling. She knew her husband''s thoughts in detail. She knew that this was Li Shimin''s ostentatious complaint.


    "This little catfish tosses again, isn''t it your majesty who will finally benefit?" empress Chang sun stared at Merton coyly.


    Li Shimin smiled with complacency. If anyone has the most horses in the world, he has to count the royal family. There are not a few horses provided by the whole horse guard alone, let alone such a large army. Cavalry has always been the most expensive arms. What''s more, if they are trained hard, they will easily cause damage to war horses. There are many war horses injured in the army every year. With the horseshoe and wound suture method, this alone can save a lot of expenses every year. What''s more, a well-trained war horse can''t be compared with simple money and food.


    "He''s smart enough to publish such things that benefit the country and the people. I''ll let him go this time." Li Shimin said angrily. He couldn''t hide his smile from the corners of his mouth.


    Li Shimin knew about the horseshoe much earlier than the empress Chang sun. As soon as Li Chengqian came back from the Mo mansion, he immediately reported to Li Shimin the role of the horseshoe. After all, as a prince, he still had this political consciousness.


    Li Shimin has been paying no attention, just observing Merton. Fortunately, Merton did not disappoint him. He took the initiative to disclose the horseshoe, which benefited the people of the Tang Dynasty.


    "Merton is a good boy, you know how to bully him!" the eldest grandson empress couldn''t help but give Li Shimin a white look. What she thinks of Merton now is very pleasing and talented. She wrote such peerless masterpieces as Ma Shuo. She was kind-hearted and announced how many people the horseshoe has benefited. More importantly, he has a good relationship with Li Chengqian.


    "Guanyin maid, you don''t know. Jade doesn''t make a thing. Mo lie died early. No one in the Mojia village can control him. This boy is used to being wild. If he''s not strict, he can''t tell what''s going on." Li Shimin said that I was for his good appearance and didn''t mean to feel guilty at all.


    Empress Chang sun thought for a while. Merton is almost unattended now. It''s not a bad thing to be pressed by Li Shimin. So Merton''s sad fate was settled happily.


    "Come on, immediately promote Horseshoes in the army and try to adapt the horses in the shortest time." Li Shimin thought and immediately ordered.


    "Yes!" pound immediately took orders.


    With horseshoes, the war horses in the army are no longer worried. They used to cherish horsepower and dare not practice on a large scale. Since then, they have no such worries., Once the training is strengthened, the gap between the Datang cavalry and the nomadic cavalry will be further narrowed. In addition, the advantage of Datang''s armour will not be afraid to face any team player.


    After solving a major hidden danger in the army, Li Shimin can''t help feeling complacent. Li Shimin usually gives a big reward for such great credit.


    However, it was thought that mojiazi caught 500 injured horses at once. According to the information, his new shopkeeper also got a lot of injured horses in Luoyang. He made tens of thousands of passes in just a few days. Li Shimin also felt that his reward was really beyond his grasp.


    This kind of courtiers who reap benefits by themselves and do not rely on the reward of the emperor not only gratified Li Shimin, but also regretted that he always felt that he was missing something!


    If Merton knows, he will cry out for injustice. No matter how much, no matter how little, no matter how little, just come.

    "A horse loses the country! It''s really thought-provoking!"


    "Who dares to say that Mozi doesn''t understand horses!"


    …………


    The horse injury incident, which caused a sensation in Chang''an City, came to an end after this ink publication.


    The Mohist school won all, and gained both fame and wealth.


    The people around eating melons yelled fun! I envy Merton for turning his hand over the clouds and covering his hand with rain. I didn''t expect to get benefits while making 500 horses in vain.


    It must be Chang''an city that owns horses on average. In addition to its own rich families and the coming and going carriages, it is estimated that they will choose to install horseshoes at the first time.


    "Bang bang!"


    Almost all of the iron shops in Chang''an city are full of business, and there is an endless stream of iron making.


    Rao is so. The supply still exceeds the demand. As long as the horseshoe is made, it will be sold out immediately.


    This time, Mojia village did not participate in the horseshoe business. After only building 500 horseshoes, Merton overcame the public opinion and gave up the business.


    In Merton''s view, Mojia village has received the greatest benefits. We can''t be too greedy. These time-consuming and laborious horseshoes have too short business cycle and high competitiveness. There is no need to make great efforts.


    Mojia village gave up this business, but it became a carnival for blacksmiths in Chang''an city. Almost every blacksmith shop made a lot of money. With the passage of time, the horseshoe feast gradually spread beyond Chang''an. From then on, Datang was no longer worried about hurting horses.


    Xi Shi Ma Hang!


    Shopkeeper Wang looked at Wang Zhe with a gloomy face.


    After the addition of Ink magazine, Merton was in the limelight and elated, while his Wang Zhe became a joke. While people envy the Mohist son for making tens of thousands of money, they are expected to ridicule the Wang horse shop.


    "Young master, do we need horseshoes on our horses?" shopkeeper Wang asked timidly.


    Horseshoes are very popular in Chang''an city these days. Almost all the horse shops in the west market horse shop have slapped horses. Due to the bad relationship between the Wang horse shop and mojiazi, the Wang horse shop did not slap horseshoes on horses. As a result, the business is very poor these days. Either they can''t sell or the people who buy horses try to keep the price down.


    "Fight! Why not? The horseshoe is not Mohist!" Wang Zhe said bitterly, biting his teeth. Although this move meant to be subdued, he didn''t want to lose the country like the protagonist in the story in Ink magazine.
