Chapter 10 The Emperor is a bit picky
"I call this a stirrup! It's a horseshoe-like artifact! ”
Yun Yi smiled incomprehensibly slightly, feeling the sense of superiority brought about by the crushing of knowledge.
In fact, whether it is a stirrup or a horseshoe, it is a necessary thing for horses in the previous life, plus the saddle, these three things are also known as the three treasures of horses.
"Let's build it now! When the time comes, put it on with the horseshoe and try it! ”
Yun Yi commanded the people of the Ministry of Industry to build it, and the Shang Emperor and the ministers stood there looking forward to it like a bun that had never seen the world.
Because the horseshoe and stirrup are not too complicated things, in less than half an hour, the skilled craftsmen of the Ministry of Industry have created two things.
After that, the guards led a horse that had been prepared long ago to the square, and under Yun Yi's command, the horse was knocked down.
"Nail these horseshoes to the horseshoe!"
In front of everyone's eyes, the horseshoe and stirrup were quickly equipped, and then, Zhang Xianmin, who couldn't wait, rushed forward directly.
When he came to the horse, he was going to climb up directly, but when he saw the stirrups on both sides of the horse's body, the ghost stretched out his feet and stepped on them, and he rode on the horse without much effort.
"It's so convenient!"
His eyes widened in shock, his feet in the stirrups, and he galloped through the square with his horses, causing a cloud of dust.
On the way to drive the horse, he also performed several difficult maneuvers that blinded the eyes, causing a burst of applause.
Soon after, he stopped his horse and said excitedly to the Shang Emperor:
"Artifact, Your Majesty, artifact!"
"Not to mention the role of the horseshoe, this stirrup alone can allow the soldiers to save their strength during the battle, and they can also move greatly on the horse, and they can even fight without the reins!"
"With this stirrup, my Great Shang cavalry can completely compete with Nanqiang's iron cavalry!"
"There can be such a big bonus!"
Emperor Shang's eyes lit up, and the other ministers exclaimed in surprise.
The powerful Nanqiang Iron Cavalry was known to everyone present, who had grown up on horseback since childhood, and naturally it was not comparable to those cavalrymen who had learned riding skills for several months.
If you want to fight against such an iron cavalry, the Shang State needs at least three cavalry to compete with one cavalry.
If a small stirrup can turn a game from 3-on-1 to one-on-one, the bonus is simply amazing!
This stirrup and horseshoe are simply the most important weapons of the country.
If an ordinary commoner takes it out, the credit is enough to even give a big knighthood!
"Yes, yes! With the birth of this artifact, my business country is in sight! ”
Shang Emperor Long Yan Dayue, this is the first time Yun Yi has seen Shang Huang so happy.
"Third Highness, on behalf of the Great Shang 100,000 Iron Horsemen, thank you Third Highness for researching such an artifact!"
Zhang Xianmin stepped forward and gave a solemn military salute to Yun Yi.
Yun Yi's face was stunned, and he said with a smile: "Lord Guogong doesn't need to be polite, this is my business, the rise and fall of the country, the husband is responsible, all of them are to contribute to the country and benefit the people, so why say thank you?" ”
"Good! The rise and fall of a good country is the responsibility of the husband! ”
Yu Deshou let out a loud sigh, with a deep look of satisfaction on his face.
"King Zhongling is so open-minded, he is really a model for my generation!"
"Good! The rise and fall of a good country is the responsibility of the husband, and this alone is enough to record the history books! ”
"That's great! He is worthy of being the prince of my Shang country! ”
The other courtiers also patted their horses slightly, and at this moment they already understood that Yun Yi had really changed, and he was no longer the same drunken gentleman as before.
And it was a blockbuster, and the stirrups and horseshoes came out, which directly won the heart of the Shang Emperor.
Emperor Shang laughed even more: "My son has such knowledge, I am very relieved!" ”
"Ladies and gentlemen, although these horseshoes and stirrups are magical, they must be kept secret!" Yun Yi said with a solemn face: "All of you here are my ministers of the court, and my father and this king also have absolute trust in you, but if this stirrup falls into the hands of other countries, or is learned by Nanqiang, it will be the catastrophe of my great business!" ”
Emperor Shang also looked solemn, and instantly understood the truth, and also warned him!
In order to deter people with ulterior motives, he even issued an order to Zhulian, if this matter is leaked for half a point, he will be punished to the end!
This shows how much attention the Shang Emperor attached to this matter.
……
After returning to the imperial study, Emperor Shang suddenly had a headache.
Because he didn't know how to reward Yun Yi.
It would be fine if Yun Yi was an ordinary person, but Yun Yi was his own son, and his status was at the peak as soon as he was born.
After thinking for a long time, to no avail, Emperor Shang looked at Yun Yi, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and asked:
"Yi'er, tell me, what reward do you want?"
"Back to my father, as a child of the royal family, my son should have done his best for the big business, and after he died, my son didn't want any reward!"
Yun Yi used a move to retreat and kick the ball to Shang Huang, because he didn't know what he needed.
Tut!
Emperor Shang squinted and tapped his fingers on the table.
Can he not reward it? No! At that time, he said that he wanted a big reward in front of the public, and he had no jokes, so it was naturally impossible to regret it.
In the audience, the courtiers aroused a burst of talk because of Yun Yi's words:
"I didn't expect His Highness to be completely inconsistent with the rumors! How could such a talented unicorn with such a well-known export have such a bad reputation! ”
"Do your best, and then die, what kind of open-minded person can say!"
"Your Highness has such an awareness, it really makes me ashamed!"
I have to say that the speaking level of these courtiers is really high, whether what they say is their heart or not, Yun Yi is very happy to listen to.
"Ahem!"
Emperor Shang coughed lightly, interrupting the discussion in the hall, and in this period of thinking, he finally thought of what to reward Yun Yi with.
"Yi'er has made a great contribution this time, and I have decided to give one hundred taels of gold, fifty silk brocades, and one golden dragon order!"
As soon as the reward came out, all the ministers were shocked, the first two rewards were decent, with Yun Yi's merits, even if the reward was 10,000 taels of gold, it was not too much.
And this golden dragon order is amazing, those who get this order can mobilize a thousand Praetorian Guards, and they can also enter and leave the palace at will, without notification.
Don't look at this token as if it is useless, in fact, this is a status symbol for the ministers, so far, only the second prince Yun Zheng and the Shang Emperor's younger brother Ling Nan Wang can get this order, even if Yun Yi is added, there are only three people.
Even the crown prince of the dynasty did not get this golden dragon order, which shows the weight of the golden dragon order.
It's just that Yun Yi doesn't know what this Golden Dragon Order is at all, and even in the memory of his predecessor, he can't retrieve useful information.
So in his eyes, the most important thing in these rewards is money, but this money is a little less......
A hundred taels of gold? Even if it is converted into silver, it is only about 1,000 taels.
For ordinary people, maybe a thousand taels of silver is enough for them to spend for decades, but for a prince like Yun Yi, what is a thousand taels enough for?
This emperor is a bit picky!
