Chapter 31 I have Bole, I mainly squeeze (Part 1)

Who is Bo Le? It is the "first expert of the good breed in China". In Chinese history, he was the first to recognize the advantages and disadvantages of the population and is known for his goodness in identifying good breeds: "I think horses should be cultivated separately for different purposes. For example, war horses, horses that pull chariots require strong pulling force and do not pursue speed, so I chose horses with thick bones and hard-working to specialize in breeding. This kind of horse is also suitable for long-distance riding.

On the battlefield, the speed of the war horses used to charge by riding a horse alone is the first priority. In addition, the horse knights wear armor and hold spears. This kind of war horse also requires a certain amount of weight-bearing ability, so I choose a horse that is good at running... Mr. Bole, you should look at the good-quality charge horse I chose. I named it Ziliu I, Chitu I, etc. I believe that these war horses can meet your "Thousand-Mile Horse" standard."

"Hey, what you mean is that a war horse that can travel thousands of miles a day is not a good horse... Different horses have different uses... wait, I'll think about it again..."

Haha, I actually taught Bole a lesson...

Zhao Wu was happy and continued: "Of course, the war horses on the battlefield need to turn a blind eye to the vocals of people, the sound of golden drums, the sound of warriors and other noises, but they must respond quickly to the slight stimulation of the owner. Such a horse requires high wisdom, easy excitement, and does not panic when encountering problems, but does not require its endurance.

The farming horse requires it to be obedient, endurance, and not bored with continuous simple movements - the requirements for horses are different, so the criteria for choosing good varieties are naturally different!"

Bo Le sighed and said bluntly: "I can see that you know nothing about horse raising. I always thought that Zhao's achievements today were due to your retainers and slaves. But now I know that Zhao's ability to have unique insights into the use of war horses lies entirely in your active mind, such as where the chariot drives, not in the war horses, but in the Yurong driving... Where is your horse farm? I want to see the breeds you choose to breed."

"Please please please..." Zhao Wu enthusiastically led Bole to the Zhao horse farm. Then, Bole selected several war horses and was immediately named "Bole No. 1" by Zhao Wu, "Bole No. 2" and so on, and immediately announced that these war horses will be specially cultivated as good species, and their descendants will be named after the second and third generations, and their patriarchal lines and maternal lines will be marked.

Bole also transferred to several countries. He once gave several kings a horse. After finding a famous horse, the first thing the king had to do was to immediately lead the thousand-mile horse away to castrate the horse so that the war horse would become docile and let him ride it at will. Now, Zhao Wu's consciousness of good race made Bole feel very moved. After he finished wandering around the horse farm, Bole immediately decided: for the time being that Zhao had settled down and began to write his "Suan Horse Sutra"...

If you have free labor, you don’t need to do it in vain. Zhao Wu appointed Bole as the horse farm supervisor and began to cruelly exploit the famous horse celebrity. He took off his body and brought the teacher Qi Ce invited to the military camp.

On this day, the sun had just risen. According to the habits of people in the Spring and Autumn Period, "works at sunrise and rests at sunset", Zhao Wu wore neatly and walked towards the gate of the courtyard. Behind him, Zhiji shouted: "Wu, Qi Ce said yesterday that Fan Yi's family would send 5,000 farmers. Today, you remind Shi Yan and asked him to draw the farmland in advance. We should not miss the farming time."

Zhao Wu's feet softened, he muttered unconsciously, and ran out of the yard quickly.

Zhiji muttered behind her back: "I don't know if he has heard it clearly, well, I will do this myself..."

Several family generals were right by the door, and Qi Ce bowed first: "Master, I will lead the swordsman to the craftsman today. I will not go to the military camp. Hurry up and start making weapons."

Zhao Wu nodded, and the group of teachers he invited also bowed together: "Welcome to the Lord."

Walking on the road, Zhao Wu called the samurai leader in his family and said casually: "Qing, Qing, Lian, I am not used to calling such a single name. In the future, I will add a surname to you. You are all samurai, so it is better to take Wu as your surname."

Feng Guan nodded slightly: "The Lord's name is Wu. It is my honor to ask me to take Wu as my surname. Wu Guan obeys the order."

Qing nodded silently. Lian was dissatisfied. He was originally called "Zanglian", but now he has become a "Guanyi", so he should be called "Guanlian". Guilian complained: "Lord, I am now a Guanlian. If I make great contributions in the future, I will give a small fiefdom to the Lord, then will I still take Wu as my surname?"

Zhao Wu smiled: "Whatever you want, I just want to call you Wulian now. Of course, you can also call yourself 'Guanwulian'."

Wu Lian smiled: "Is this a double name? Wu Lian, it sounds nice, just so I can do it."

Wu Feng was reluctant: "The Lord named you with his own name 'Wu'. You savage, you are still nagging and talking nonstop, and you don't want to stay in the Zhao family."

Zhao Wu quickly stopped him: "This is a qi word. You can't say this nonsense. Everyone, be kind, and be kind and make money."

The new coaches followed silently. Although they were surprised by Zhao Wu's easy-goingness, they did not scold or punish even the subordinates quarreled around, but these warriors had been mingling in the countries. They knew the strictest feudal order, so they did not express their opinions.

Seeing this group of people from afar, the Zhao warriors on duty opened the gate of the military camp and welcomed them into them. At this time, in front of the huge school ground, the private soldiers were having breakfast in units of "two (twenty-five people)". The ordinary soldiers gathered together, and the senior officers dined alone. Their food was obviously better than that of ordinary soldiers, and even their tableware was exquisite.

Zhao Wudang led the group of people into the officers' team first. He lined up honestly behind the line and patiently waited for the officers in front to take away his food. It was Zhao Wu's turn, and he got a clay pot and a basket. A can of minced meat (meat porridge made of minced meat flour) was placed in the clay pot. Two cakes were placed in the basket, three meat strips were held in the middle of the cake, and a plate of pickles were placed next to it.

The emergence of pickles was attributed to Guan Zhong. Guan Zhong governed Qi State and determined the strategy of exempting farmers from taxes and lightening merchants, but Guan Zhong was very ruthless: he decided to increase taxes on gold (copper) and salt.

Gold (copper) was a strategic material at that time, but now it is a weapon of mass destruction, while salt is a necessity for daily life that ordinary people have to use. Guan Zhong controlled the flow of gold (copper), influenced the outcome of wars between countries; and controlled the output of salt, and wielded the "sanctions" stick to impose an economic blockade on the disobedient countries...

Later people did not learn Guan Zhong's economic skills, but instead believed that Qi State was both tax cuts and tax exemptions, but the government could become rich by controlling the daily necessities of ordinary people's daily lives. So this became the later "salt and iron policy".
