Chapter 189: Stallions
It is undeniable that Li Ke is a very good talker.
Although he was born noble, his temper is very good, and he doesn't have a big thorny shelf, which makes people look very pleasing to the eye.
At the very least, when he stayed at Liu's house with a dead face and finished lunch and dinner, Liu Laoshi and Liu He didn't have any unhappy faces, and they both enthusiastically poured food and wine for him, and even let Li Ke stay in their newly built guest room as he wished, becoming the first guest to stay after the old Liu family moved into the new house.
In this regard, Liu Yiyi has no opinion, in fact, Lao Liu and they don't stay, and Liu Yiyi will not let him go easily.
It's not that I don't care much about Li Ke and his identity, but Liu Yiyi has taken a fancy to someone else's horse.
People say that Maxima is an ordinary person, but Bole is not common, in Liu Yiyi's opinion, it is pure nonsense.
When Liu Yiyi used to learn the art of raising horses from people in Inner Mongolia, he had seen not 5,000 horses, but 4,999 horses, but he had never seen a single hair on these thousands of horses, and everything was in his ears.
Therefore, this Maxima is not often there.
Now, when he finally saw a horse, he wouldn't let it go.
And looking at Li Ke's horse, it seems to be still a stallion, from the moment he saw it, Liu Yiyi began to wonder, whether to find a group of mares who are waiting to be in heat, and there are not many opportunities to find a thousand miles of horses to breed.
Yanagichi's occupational illness is gone.
It's April, and it's during the mare's estrus season, and if he can find ten mares in heat, won't he have a certain chance of getting one, two, or even ten horses, or a variant of the horses, after that year.
Although there is also a chance that you can't get a horse, this is always a big temptation for Liu Yi.
And Liu Yiyi is a simple person who does it when he thinks of it.
Therefore, on the night when Li Ke stayed at Liu's house, Liu Yiyi quietly stuffed Ma Cheng with hundreds of silver coins, and asked him to go to the county to look for horses.
I don't know if it's a borrowed seed?
However, this kind of thing is to breed horses, Liu Yiyi is deeply rooted in the true legend of Uncle Ryitchena, all the horses that have been matched by his hands, it is a quasi-child, only once, can ensure that the mare is successfully conceived.
In any case, Li Ke must be kept for a while.
As soon as he had dinner, Liu Yiyi carried a few more pots of wine to Li Ke's room.
"Mr. Liu," Li Ke got up and opened the door, and when he saw that it was Liu Yiyi, he gave Liu Yiyi a salute.
"Hehe, Brother Li doesn't have to be polite, the small house is simple, not as good as Chang'an, I don't know if Brother Li is still used to living here?" Liu Yiyi walked into the room, put the food box on the table, and asked Li Ke with a smile.
"Mr. Lao Liu is worried, Mr. here, it is pure and natural, and the idyllic scenery is prosperous, and it is a blessing to be able to live here temporarily." Li Ke said, casually sitting opposite Liu Yiyi.
Liu Yiyi nodded lightly, worthy of being Li Shimin's son, this little thing is very comfortable to listen to.
"Brother Li likes it," Liu Yiyi opened the food box, took out the wine and vegetables in it one by one, placed them on the table, and said to Li Ke with a smile: "There is a saying, 'Friends come from afar, are you happy?'" Since Brother Li likes it, then you might as well stay here for a few more days, for Brother Li, Liu is welcome. ”
"I don't dare to ask for it! Ke is also trying to bother Mr. here for a few more days. Li Ke was overjoyed when he heard this, it seems that this Liu Yiyi has a good impression of him, well, this is a good start.
Liu Yiyi took out the wine glass and placed it in front of himself and Li Ke, the wine glass was a large cup, only a few points smaller than the usual tea bowl.
"Brother Li is willing to stay in the cold house, that's Liu's blessing, come on, let's drink this cup first!" Liu Yiyi poured the wine full, picked up the wine glass and signaled to Li Ke, and then took the lead in drinking the wine.
"Sir, please!" Li Ke was not hypocritical, he boldly picked up the wine glass and poured it down with his neck tilted. Eating meat and drinking wine in a big bowl, Li Ke is no stranger to this situation.
"Hehe, Brother Li is really a good amount of wine!" Liu Yiyi smiled and picked up the wine jug again and gave it to Li Keman, and asked in a loud voice: "Brother Liu Mouguan Li is also a person who practices martial arts, and if you want to come to this martial arts, you must have extraordinary attainments." I don't know what kind of business Brother Li is doing now? ”
"Thanks to the blessing of my ancestors, my younger brother got a manor in the Huainan area, and now he has leisure all day long, practicing martial arts and studying, but it is not a big deal." Li Ke chuckled and said: "However, a good man should join the army to serve the country and fight on the battlefield, if it weren't for the junior brother's martial arts and lack of fire, the younger brother would have stayed in my Tang Dynasty army at this moment." ”
It can be seen that this kid can fight. Just like his father, there is a blood in his bones.
"Brother Li is so ambitious! For this reason, let's be white! Liu Yiyi picked up his wine glass and took the opportunity to pour wine.
Li Ke raised his glass and touched Liu Yiyi, then he took the wine jug, personally poured a glass for Liu Yiyi, looked at Liu Yiyi and said: "When Ke was in Huainan, he often heard about the deeds of Mr. Zhi, Mr. not only has extraordinary medical skills, but also has a lot of research on this fist and foot technique. I wonder if Mr. Liu has any plans to join the army in the future? ”
"Me?" Liu Yiyi pointed to his nose and chuckled: "Brother Li said that he laughed, Liu is lazy by nature, and he can't stand the constraints of those military laws and disciplines, let me join the army, then it is better to kill me directly." ”
Liu Yiyi picked up a fennel bean with chopsticks, threw it in his mouth, and said while chewing: "And Liu has never had great ambitions, and he has no need to rely on his life to feed and wrap his stomach." This military journey, official career, has nothing to do with me, come and come, let's drink. ”
Then the two of them had another full drink.
Liu Yiyi saw that Li Ke's face had already begun to turn red.
Listening to Liu Yiyi's words, Li Ke couldn't help but be a little disappointed in his heart, he once again lifted the pot to fill the wine, and said to Liu Yiyi: "Mr. is such a good person, with a furrow in his chest and a great talent in his belly, is he really willing to live in such a poor and remote place for the rest of his life?" ”
"Everyone has their own ambitions, and the official road is dangerous, and they can't be forced." Liu Yiyi glanced at Li Ke meaningfully, and said: "Take Brother Li as an example, Brother Li has great ambitions, and he wants to go out and make a shocking career. Compare hearts to hearts, you and I are all the same kind of people. ”
"Uh," Li Ke's face changed slightly, and he said, "Sir, what do you mean by this?" ”
"Without it, it's just some whining words, Brother Li doesn't have to take it to heart." Liu Yiyi raised his glass again and said to Li Ke: "Again, Brother Li, let's have another drink." ”
Li Ke thoughtfully raised his glass and touched Liu Yiyi.
In this way, the two of them drank for half an hour, and two catties of sanda sake went down, and Li Ke finally lost his strength and fell on the wine table.
"Young master," At this time, Ma Cheng also came back from outside, and when he arrived at the door of Li Ke's room, he saluted Liu Yi and said, "The small things you ordered have been done." ”
"Well," Liu Yiyi helped Li Ke to the bed, glanced at Li Ke, and then went out and said to Ma Cheng: "Let's go to the front yard to talk." ”
After speaking, he led Ma Cheng to the front yard of the living room, Liu Yiyi looked at Ma Cheng and asked, "How is it, how many horses did you buy back?" ”
"Back to the young master, the villain ran back and forth twice in Sanyuan County, and only found fifteen mares that echoed your request, and now those horses are all in the stable on the west side, do you want to check it out?"
"Fifteen, well, yes, take me to see it." Ryuchichi nodded, it was more than he expected.
The two of them came to the stable together, and there were originally only one room for Liu Wuji, but there were sixteen more horses at once, and the room suddenly seemed to be full.
Seeing Liu Yiyi come in, Liu Wuxian snorted at Liu Yiyi affectionately and jumped up happily.
Seeing this, Liu Yiyi stepped forward and made love to Liu Wuxian for a while, and then walked towards the dozen or so horses.
Ma Cheng tied those mares to Li Ke's thousand-mile horse, and it took a lot of effort to get the horse to arch behind a mare's buttocks.
What a colored horse, Liu Yiyi despised it in his heart.
"Ma Cheng, you go and get that stallion away, don't let it get close to those mares now." Liu Yiyi turned his head and instructed Ma Cheng, this kind of thing of breeding horses, you can't be in a hurry, you need to take it step by step.
instructed Ma Cheng to find fifteen more red threads and tie them to the newly bought fifteen mares. In the future, I will match them once, solve one of them, and strive to match all the fifteen mares within a few days.
Liu Yiyi carefully looked at the mares that Ma Cheng bought, they were all very tall, but the horses were of different breeds and colors, and the effect of matching them was not too good.
However, it is already rare to find so many mares in heat in such a short period of time, so I can only make up for it and use it first.
After all, there aren't many opportunities to breed Maxima.
