Chapter 50 Ability
In the midst of the busyness, the days pass extremely fast.
After more than ten days, it was gone in a flash, and the time also entered February of the seventh year of the great cause.
It was still cold, and there were snowflakes.
Li Po's life suddenly became idle, because there were only two horses left in the stable.
Li Gongcao's people were beaten and scolded, and soon let people take the horse away, faintly expressing some dissatisfaction, but they also stopped there, they should know very well that the old man is not easy to mess with.
And Li Po also knew from Yuen Long's mouth that the so-called Li Gongcao was the nephew of Li Jing and the youngest son of Li Jing's eldest brother Li Duan.
Li Duan attacked Yongkang Gong in his early years, because of his attachment to Shi Wansui and evil to Shangshu Zuo Pu shot Yang Su, after Shi Wansui was killed by Emperor Wen Yang Jian, soon, Li Duan was cut to the people because of the unfavorable war, and even affected the third brother Li Jing.
Since then, Li Jing, who has become famous as a teenager, is proud of the spring breeze, and his fame is gradually rising, has suffered the first heavy blow, and for him, almost the next twenty years of inaction are all due to this.
After that, he never had to step into Chang'an, and after many years, he was reluctantly promoted to the position of county minister.
Li Po naturally didn't know about the grievances involved, but from the tone of Yuen Long's talk about Li Gongcao's father and son, he could still detect it, I'm afraid that the relationship between Li Jing's two brothers is not so harmonious.
Of course, these things had nothing to do with Li Po's dime, and he was soon thrown out of the clouds.
It was only from these narratives that he clearly realized the strength of the nepotism of the Great Sui, and to put it more formally, the deep-rooted influence of the recommendation system on the Great Sui.
But isn't it, the tax collector at the gate of the city is the wife and nephew of Li Jing, the Gong Cao of the head of Zhu Cao, the nephew of Li Jing, and even the head of the groom is Li Jing's cousin-in-law.
This is only what he has encountered, and there may be many that he has not encountered.
And this is just a peek at the leopard, if he has always been such a humble identity as he is now, he may not be able to appreciate how deep the heritage of the real gate lord clan of the Great Sui is for the rest of his life.
It can be said that in the spring of the seventh year of the great cause, Li Po lived a very leisurely life.
Away from hunger and cold, I ate a lot every day. 】
Moreover, I am also familiar with Yuen Long, but the old man is still so difficult to serve, and he has to yell a few words at every turn, as if otherwise, his throat will be uncomfortable, and his thoughts will not be understood.
The horses in the stables were also ridden away one after another, either to Yanmen or to Jinyang, which was obviously a bit unusual, but for Li Po, a full-time groom, he could keenly feel that the approach of the war had nothing to do with him.
The term Goryeo (it should be Goguryeo, which has nothing to do with the later Goryeo Dynasty, but it is called so for everyone to be familiar with) gradually began to hang on people's lips.
Li Po is not interested in listening to it more, let alone fighting for the life and death of the Great Sui, and by the way, making contributions to himself or something, because of this kind of war, Li Po is too familiar with it, and those who die are cannon fodder, just like him, it is definitely volcanic ash in cannon fodder, and it is not uncommon to die several times in front of the two armies.
Because there were fewer horses in the stables, the groom's work came to a standstill.
After the beginning of the busyness, Li Po did a very energetic job in the position of the groom.
While teaching Li Chun to raise horses, he can also learn a lot from the old man.
The old man's unique job is actually on the preparation of ingredients, which can make the horse eat fragrantly, and not spoil the stomach, lose weight, and not grow any fat, this is the old man's ability.
It sounds simple, but few people can do it, and preparing ingredients is indeed one of the most important jobs for grooms.
What makes Li Po quite unhappy is that the old man not only has a bad temper, but also has the unique bad habits of people in this era.
But the so-called house thieves are difficult to prevent, and Yuen Long is familiar, ask a few words from time to time, and then study the ratio and type of finished materials, more than a month later, Li Po himself will be able to mix good concentrates, as for coarse materials, do you still need to bother?
What is the secret legend, in Li Po's opinion, it is bullshit, these days, many things are caused by practice makes perfect, and most of them can't stand up to pondering.
Therefore, Li Po is very disdainful of the old man's selfishness.
In particular, Li Po himself is not useless, in terms of domesticating war horses, his ability is in taming.
In just a few days, he could easily gain the trust of these war horses, and in a few days, every horse would be very affectionate when they saw him.
Even, no matter how far away the two mounts of the county lord were, as long as he whistled, the two warhorses that were quite miraculous horses ran back.
Not to mention stunts, it's almost the same, because it is not easy to let the war horse develop this habit, and it often takes years to get along with each other in order to get a response from the war horse.
Of course, Li Po is a person with talent bonuses, and it is really not too difficult to do this.
On the grassland, he was tired of playing......
However, it still made Li Chun's eyes pop up with little stars, and Yuen Long's envious eyes turned blue, even if the old man saw it for the first time, he was stunned for a long time.
Li Po and the old man are naturally different, the ability is a thing, life does not bring it to death, there is no need to value it so much, only let others learn it, but it can't reach your height, that is called real ability.
What you hide and tuck, but you fall behind.
Therefore, he treats Li Chun and Yuen Long equally, starting from the habits of horses and then to various tips, which are clearly organized and clear.
To make it clear, there is actually no magic at all.
The reason why he can create a magical effect is that he knows too much about the horse's hearing, sight, taste, and where to touch, where the horse will be comfortable, etc.
Just like a person, you have mastered what he likes to eat, what he likes to listen to, what he likes to watch, and what he likes to play, then you want to get his favor, it's really easy.
The effect was very good, Li Chun and Yuen Long were so happy that they almost made the two good horses of the county prince delirious, and only then stopped in the roar of the old man.
Li Po's treatment was also immediately improved, and the old man's eyes were still fierce when he looked at him, but he never scolded him again, let alone moved his hands and feet.
Yuen Long finally willingly called his brother, so Li Po gloriously became the second groom in the stable, below one and above the two.
And Li Po's ability is more than this, it didn't take many days for him to win the treatment of being on an equal footing with the old man, and by the way, he got himself a petty official.
