(401), Bu Yu
~
When the carriage came nearer, he saw the man standing on the carriage pulling the reins in one hand and the long whip in the other, and although his whole body was almost submerged in the flying dust, it did not prevent him from roaring all the way, and he did not know how many mouthfuls of soil he had 'eaten' from it.
Depending on the situation, this person looks a bit like a horse trainer.
Seeing this scene, Yang Chen couldn't help but sigh: "It's the first time I've seen a carriage chasing a herd of horses, and I can still chase so closely." ”
Wang Zhe stared at the group of horses for a few moments, then shook his head and said: "It's going to be summer, it shouldn't be a few days, and the defense here will be dismantled, and there will be some of the weakest horses left, and it is not difficult to catch up with the pavilion car." ”
It was only in the time he finished saying this, on the roughly circular mooring track as a whole, the sound of the tapping in the wild was so close that it almost drowned out the second half of his words.
The running speed of the horses was really a bit terrifying in the eyes of Yang Chen, a person who was used to dealing with ordinary horses. But for Wang Zhe, who has been in the military's horse training base camp and seen the cavalry charging into battle, this speed is still a little lacking.
Over there, the trainer on the pavilion finally saw a carriage parked a few feet away from the racetrack.
According to common sense, the carriages in the Bailubo Horse Riding Farm, whether they are in use or the spare cars in the warehouse, are of the same specifications, just like the one under their feet. Therefore, in such an environment, Yang Chen's carriage drove into the field, which seemed a little different, causing the horse trainer to subconsciously take a few more looks.
Then he saw Wang Zhe's face clearly, and he couldn't help but show a hint of surprise in his eyes.
Immediately afterward, he saw Wang Zhe's arm on the shoulder of a young man with an unfamiliar face beside him, and his eyes quickly returned to calm. The car did not stop, he flicked the long whip in his hand, and chased the horses tightly on a section of the horse race track directly opposite Wang Zhe.
And he saw the trainer glancing at him. Yang Chen's feelings are very different from Wang Zhe's. After all, it was his first time here, and this place was not for ordinary people to enter, so he was a little timid, and his shoulders tightened slightly.
When the herd of horses and carriages rushed to the other end of the racetrack, hidden behind a shade of reeds that could not be seen, Yang Chen looked at Wang Zhe and asked, "Do you know the people here?" ”
To be able to come in so easily, and to be able to walk with the living, the meaning of this 'understanding' is not ordinary.
Wang Zhe knew that Yang Chen would definitely have this question, so he had already prepared a statement in his heart. As soon as Yang Chen's voice fell, he quickly smiled and replied, "I have a wide range of friends." Thanks to a friend's cheapness, I made a name for myself as a horse trainer here. ”
A look of surprise appeared in Yang Chen's eyes, although he didn't say anything immediately. But the look in his eyes was obviously saying: I can't tell you're still a horse trainer!
Wang Zhe guessed what Yang Chen would think, so he added: "However, I am really just a nominal horse trainer. So far, there have not been a few good horses, but they often use this excuse to disturb their friends. ”
Yang Chen suddenly had a thought when he heard this, and he smiled. said: "I completely agree with what you say. ”
As the two of them were talking, they suddenly heard the sound of wheels crashing on the ground, but it was the carriage with only one bottom plate coming back.
The carriage came to a halt when it was still a little way away, and then I saw the horse trainer with messy hair and a dirty face with his whip in his waist, and he did not tie the horse, but threw the reins in his hand. jumped out of the car directly, and while approaching Wang Zhe, he arched his hand and said loudly: "Brother Wang." Which auspicious wind is blowing you? ”
"Is there such an auspicious wind in the world? I'm here to trouble Master Bu. Wang Zhe had also jumped out of the carriage and waved his hand at the approaching horse trainer, his eyes full of joy.
The horse trainer smiled happily, as if the momentum of chasing the horse just now had not yet dissipated, and he greeted Wang Zhe and said, "Is it trouble?" That depends on which Master Bu you look for. ”
"Naturally, it's not you." Wang Zhe teased, "Ling Zun wants you to take the Beijing exam." But you don't want a shortcut at the door of your home, you like to follow a group of livestock every day, if you don't change, you're afraid you'll miss the title of 'Bu Daren' forever. ”
"You're too ruthless to show me some affection? In each phase of the imperial examination hall, I will see many middle-aged people in their forties and fifties, and others are not in a hurry. The trainer was careless and spewed foul words, and then remembered his father's earnest teachings, and hurriedly spat aside, and the saliva was mixed with no trace of dust.
Letting go of the dryness in his heart, the horse trainer turned his attention to Yang Chen beside Wang Zhe, his eyes suspicious.
Next, naturally, Wang Zhe was the introducer to introduce the horse trainer. According to common sense, it is not possible to enter the horse training farm as Yang Chen, but with Wang Zhe as the middleman, the problem becomes no longer a problem again.
After getting to know each other, Yang Chen realized that the horse trainer in front of him was actually a gag master.
Although this man does have the ability to train horses, and seems to be a little better than Wang Zhe, he actually has no official horse trainer approval at all.
If Wang Zhe's untamed horse but can hold an empty title is because of the bridge of friendship, then the behavior of the horse trainer in front of him is even more outrageous, just because he relies on his father's power and is more tough.
However, it is precisely because his father is on the top that this horse trainer has no way to verify it.
According to common sense, it is not difficult to obtain the qualification of a horse trainer, but as the chief supervisor of this horse trainer and the father of this false horse trainer, Lord Bu Yan firmly opposes his second son Bu Yu's emphasis on equestrianism and neglect of learning, so he has been intervening in this matter - Bu Yu is the dusty horse trainer in front of him who seems to be in a very happy mood.
The verification process of horse trainer qualifications is not complicated, and the approval department is not large, but it is easy to be forced by Mr. Bu.
As long as the pressure from Mr. Bu's side is carried out in both light and dark, the grassroots officials related to the review have not dared to stamp Bu Yu's application.
The officials of those departments knew what Boss Bu expected of his son. Judging from the current situation, participating in the Beijing test and achieving fame and fame is obviously more promising than horse taming. Mr. Bu has been fighting for most of his life, and the Qingyun Road, which has finally achieved a little success, must also be inherited. No one will be stunned at this time, since Master Bu has made his words clear, isn't it a lack of heart to do it again?
Bu Yu knew that this phenomenon was caused by his father, but he didn't blame the grassroots officials, and even if he couldn't train the horse in a grand manner, he could still do it quietly.
For this point, the grassroots officials understand Bu Ershao's love for horses, and most of them will give face to the time when Bu Boss can't see it.
Fortunately, in addition to the qualification of a horse trainer, Master Bu also restricted Bu Ershao's range of activities, saying that it would not be lifted until he obtained fame. Although the latter item is considered a family matter of the Bu family, it can save a lot of trouble for the department officials in charge of the military horses.
The Bailubo Horse Training Farm is only going to be in the summer, and it is about to collect the team to return to the military horse training camp in the north of the country, and most of the officials from the relevant departments have also gone back together. As long as he survives this half of the spring, Bu Ershao will come to Bailubo again, and he will only have to watch the reeds fishing.
Having said that, since I saw Bu Yu here, then Master Bu was not here.
Wang Zhe came here to prepare to make an IOU, and it was a horse to borrow, and it was likely that there was a loan but not a return. Bu Yu can't be the master of this matter - he was also sneaking away to play, and he was violating the order - so after asking if Bu Yan was not there and had to answer if he was not, Wang Zhe was ready to leave, but was stopped by Bu Yu again.
Bu Yu knew Wang Zhe's identity, but Yang Chen didn't know it yet, so Wang Zhe signaled to Bu Yu, there were outsiders at this time, and it was not appropriate to talk too much, although Bu Yu was not very willing, he could only let go.
Just as Wang Zhe was about to get in the car and return, he turned around and saw Yang Chen, who was full of surprise, and then saw a scene that surprised him too.
Because Yang Chen's horse and Bu Yu's horse were not tied to the reins, the three of them were all introducing each other just now, friends meeting, meeting new friends, the spirit of the three of them was condensed, and they neglected the horse for a while.
When the three of them came back to their senses, they saw that the two horses had come together, and you rubbed me and I rubbed you with their heads and necks entangled.
If two stallions fight fiercely, you push me, I kick you, and there is a horse trainer with certain qualifications and experience on the side to mediate, and the situation may be very controllable. But if two horses, one male and one female, get together, it's a bit more difficult.
Wang Zhe also noticed this, and couldn't help asking: "Isn't the mare not tamed?" Although this horse training farm is not for military supplies, the order that has been established must be observed. ”
Mares are not tamed, mainly because caravans use horses on land, and in order to stabilize their sex, they basically do not use mares. The main purpose of raising mare is to breed, and it is almost the same to feed and fatten.
In addition, the transportation that will allow merchants to travel in a group must be a long distance list, and it is natural to use a good horse with the most lasting foot strength. Although the mare may be a little more docile than the stallion, if it is a mare in heat, it is difficult to say, not to mention the disadvantage that the mare body is always weaker than the stallion.
This horse training farm in Bailubo mainly trains the merchant horses supplied to the merchants, and the category of horse selection is naturally becoming more and more one-sided.
In the face of Wang Zhe's displeasure, and in the face of the increasingly fierce interaction between the two animals on the other side, Bu Yu, who seemed to be the most skilled horse trainer among the three, was still indifferent.
After watching in silence for a while, Bu Yu just showed a hint of helplessness on his face, and said slowly: "You don't know, it's time for the horse training farm to close again. The group of horses that ran past just now were all the last weak, sick, and disabled horses left in the racecourse, and I had to play with them for a while. Just running a lap, what kind of taming. ”
