"Raising horses? Can you keep horses on Tamna? ”

As soon as he heard about raising horses, Yin Yanchun's ears pricked up. His son Yin Qian is a champion who can ride a horse and shoot arrows - Poping Yin is the founder of the Goryeo Kingdom, the Gaomen family, of course, there are horses in the family of the patriarch, and there are also horses who are specifically responsible for raising horses.

However, including the Po Pyeong Yin family, all the horses in the Goryeo family are not well raised. The more you raise it, the smaller it gets, it's almost the same as the donkey of the Great Song Dynasty. The reason for this is that the livestock industry of the Goryeo people is too backward. The current state of Goryeo is not the foundation of the original Goguryeo, but the foundation of Silla. Silla is located in the southern part of the Korean Peninsula and is a rugged mountainous terrain. There is not enough land to grow millet, so what kind of animal husbandry should be developed? Therefore, the Goryeo people really don't know how to raise, unlike the Great Song Dynasty, which has a long history of animal husbandry and nomadic roots, and as a result, they gradually forgot about it......

But Goryeo, as a powerful and powerful country, is now fighting with its daughters, and will go to war with Liao in the future, how can it be done without strong cavalry?

Therefore, the monarchs and ministers of Goryeo have been wanting to get a stable and good supply of horses for several years.

"If there is really a fertile land on Tamna Island, then you can naturally raise horses."

"That's not right," Yin Yanchun shook his head, "Haven't you Da Song also been trapped by the lack of good horses?" ”

"That's in the past," Su Shi smiled, "Now we have found a good way to raise horses." ”

"What's the best way to keep horses?" Yin Yanchun asked, "Can you reveal one or two?" ”

Su Shi smiled: "It's not difficult to say, it's just to let a businessman who is good at raising horses buy a horse farm." ”

"A businessman who is good at raising horses? Isn't it a shepherd who raises horses? ”

Su Shi's words were beyond the scope of Yin Yanchun's comprehension - in his mind, businessmen were buying and selling, at most long-distance trafficking, and they were not engaged in production, let alone animal husbandry.

In Su Shi's understanding, as long as the main purpose of production and transportation is to make a profit, whether it is raising horses, cattle or farming, it is a commercial business activity.

"I have a businessman who is good at raising horses in the Great Song Dynasty!" Su Shi smiled, "And I have raised a lot of good horses, but now I am just suffering from the lack of horse farms...... Did you know that this horse breeder is not possible anywhere? ”

What he says now is all good martial arts and ancient teachings...... If you can meet the Star Lord, then try to take in apprentices. If you can't see the star lord, then use it to raise horses in Tamna to deceive the Koreans.

"I know, I know......" Yin Yanchun nodded again and again, "You have to have a good pasture to raise horses." ”

"yes." Su Shi said, "Isn't there one here in Tamna?" If you can trust our horse merchants in the Great Song Dynasty, we can let them come to Tamna to raise horses. ”

"So...... How much does it cost to invite them? ”

"Money?" Su Shi waved his hand, "No need for money." ”

"Don't need money?"

"Horse merchants will invest money to raise horses, and they will also transport stallions and mares from the Great Song Dynasty." Su Shi said, "As long as you are willing to take out the pasture on Tamna Road and rent it to horse merchants." ”

"How do the horse traders make a profit?"

"Of course, horses are raised to sell them." Su Shi smiled, "If you Goryeo want to go north and west, you have to ask for a lot of war horses, right?" Horses are also needed in Japan...... You see how good it is to raise horses in this place of Tamna, it must be profitable. ”

Yin Yanchun thought about it repeatedly and felt that there was nothing wrong with it. Tamna Island is so far away from the Great Song Dynasty, even if there are hundreds of Song Dynasty merchants and horses on the island? Can you still take Tamna Island?

It's a big deal to let the star lord of the Tamna country submit a request for the withdrawal of the vassal country as soon as possible, the name of the county is certain, and then 1,000 elite soldiers are stationed, then it will be foolproof.

At that time, it may be the Goryeo court that requisitioned the war horses they had worked so hard to raise......

……

"This is Mr. Dongpo's Mobao?"

"It's my uncle's true handiwork!" Su Shi pointed to a pair of "Jiangchengzi. Haidong has a great Confucian", said to Cui Xian, "My uncle has long heard that Goryeo has six dynasties of the old minister Cui Haoran Gong pioneered private learning, set up Jiuzhai School, and admired the matter of the crowd, so he wrote this Jiangchengzi, and asked the lower officials to bring Haidong and give it to Cui Gong, but it's a pity...... However, today I met the descendants of Duke Cui in Tamluo, and the lower officials finally lived up to their uncle's entrustment. ”

"I didn't expect Mr. Dongpo to know the deeds of the family man." Cui Xian listened to Su Shi's words, and then carefully looked at the rows of calligraphy words with excellent pen power on the unfolded scroll and the inscription of the Dongpo monk, and his mouth was almost smiling. His grandfather's name was even admired by Su Dongpo, the first famous scholar of the Great Song Dynasty, and as a grandson, of course he felt that his face was bright.

"That's right," Su Shi looked at Cui Xian's expression, and knew that his ability to make friends was good again, so he continued to flicker, "When Xia Guan opened Beijing, he heard that the Haizhou Cui clan of Goryeo was the Pingzhou assassin of the Jin Dynasty?" ”

"yes!" Cui Xian nodded, "Our ancestors fled to Goguryeo with thousands of their own soldiers to avoid the attack of the Xianbei Murong clan. ”

"Disrespectful, disrespectful!" Su Shi, who was kneeling on top of a futon, immediately straightened up and hugged his fists, "I didn't expect you to be a descendant of the Boling Cui clan!" ”

The Boling Cui clan was still very awesome in the Tang Dynasty, one of the five surnames and seven hopes! However, the Song Dynasty didn't pay attention to this set, but Goryeo was still a society that fought for its ancestors. Therefore, Cui Xian is also very proud of the birth of "five surnames and seven hopes" - although they have long been absent from the genealogy of the Boling Cui family.

"It's a pity, it's a pity." Su Shi suddenly shook his head again.

"What's the pity?" Yin Yanchun, who was accompanying him, asked.

"It's a pity that the descendants of the Boling Cui clan in the Central Plains don't know that Cui Haoran, the great Confucian of Haidong, is the same clan as them!" Su Shi then bragged, "Xiaguan's friend, Yuntai Academy Professor Cui Zifang is a descendant of the Boling Cui clan, if he knew that Cui Haoran Gong was also a Boling family, he would definitely propose to rebuild the family tree and include the Haidong Cui clan in it." ”

"Really?" Of course Cui Xian is interested. His grandfather was Haidong Confucius, the first Confucian in Goryeo! And Confucianism pays attention to respecting heaven and ancestors, that is, talking about ancestors. Haidong Cui's entry into the Boling genealogy, and then going to the ancestral tomb to worship is a very long-faced thing - at least it can prove that his ancestors are really from the Boling Cui family.

"That's for sure!" Su Shi thought for a while, "It's better to do this, when the lower official returns to Haizhou, he will inform Cui Ziping and his uncle Dongpo of the situation of the Cui family in Haidong, and ask them to come forward to invite the prison to cross the sea to give lectures, and by the way, they will pay tribute to the ancestral grave." ”

"Go to the Great Song Dynasty to give a lecture?" Cui Xian was a little confused, although he was a Goryeo Jinshi, but his Confucianism skills were not deep, how could he go to the Song Dynasty to give lectures?

"yes!" Su Shi said, "Haidong Confucianism is also very insightful in many aspects, and it should communicate with Central Plains Confucianism to learn from each other's strengths." ”

"That's, that's great." Cui Xian can be regarded as meeting a confidant this time. After he became famous, he would be sent to Tamna to be a prisoner, so he naturally stood aside, and the reason why this was so was because he had an ambiguous attitude when Wang Hao usurped the throne. Now, of course, there is no regret, but there is no regret medicine in the world.

And the opportunity of "Yuntai Lecture" sent by Su Shi is obviously able to make Cui Xian turn the situation around.

The Goryeo Confucianism gave lectures at the highest institution of learning in the Great Song Dynasty, and such a thing has never happened! If Choi Heon can become the first person, there is no doubt that his knowledge is proven.

So how can a learned official blow the wind on Tamna Island? must be recalled to Kaijing as a high-ranking official!

Now that there is a personal relationship, it is naturally easier to handle national affairs.

Don't you just want to rent land in Tamna...... Anyway, the land in Tamna can't be rented, and now someone wants it, why isn't it a good thing?

"Brother Zhongnan," the Goryeo Confucian Choi Heon called Su Shi changed, "It's not a problem for you to borrow land to repair ships and lease land to raise horses on Tamna Island. But...... This cannot be leased in the name of the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"Of course, renting in the name of a commercial house will never disappoint Brother Cui......" Su Shi smiled, "By the way, can you rent land in the name of the academy?" ”

In fact, Wu Hao had long expected that the Tamna Kingdom would not lease the land to the Great Song Dynasty government, and the exchanges between the Tamna Kingdom and the Great Song Dynasty officials were probably prohibited, so how could it be possible to lease the land to the Song Kingdom?

But leasing land to the people of the Song Dynasty is another matter, it is business, and it has nothing to do with the diplomacy of the two countries. Now that the country of Tamna is so poor, it is also necessary to get some money to repair the thatched roof of the palace.

However, Wu Haogu knew more about the colonial history of later generations and knew that there was a better way than commercial leasing.

It's about starting a church...... That is, the academy! Fan Zhiwen, aren't they here to Tamluo for this?

"Academy?" Cui Xian thought for a while, "Yuntai Academy is going to open an academy in Tamna?" ”

"Of course it's not the Yuntai Academy," Su Shi said, "How can Confucianism have the qualifications to study the Yuntai Academy?" It's just that a few doctors who went to Japan to preach wanted to set up a primary school in Tamna to spread the teachings of Confucianism. ”

"It's not the official school of the Great Song Dynasty, right?"

"Of course not, how can it be an official school, how can the officials of the Great Song Dynasty be willing to live in Tamluo for a long time?" Su Shi said with certainty, "Those doctors who preach are not officials, they are civilians. ”

"As long as it's not an official school." Cui Xian said with a smile, "It's not leased by the Song State Government, it's something that can be decided by Tamna State or Tamna County, and Xia Guan is now a prisoner, so he can naturally make a decision." ”

"Then thank you Brother Cui."

As he spoke, Su Shi slapped his face again. Then I saw Fan Zhiwen with a group of strong men carrying silk silks on their backs, rushing into this small thatched house. A thousand horses of various colors of silk were quickly stacked in front of Cui Xian.

"This is, what is this doing?" Cui Xian's eyes were straight when he asked.

"It's a little funny." Su Shi smiled, "Our three boats of people fell to Tamna because of the wind and waves, thanks to the care of the prison country, this thousand horses of silk should be regarded as a thank you gift." ”
