chapter 21
"However, your store has just suffered a lot of losses. You should give less, and you can make up for it." Liu Yu said affectionately.

This is the truth. For He Mai to suffer such a big loss, Liu Yu is somewhat responsible. If he had taken action earlier and hadn't been watching the fun, at least he could have saved a few more pieces of cloth.

He took off part of the money and gave him all the money left on the leather rope. He Mai refused to take it, and pushed the money back.

"Brother Ji Nu, do you look down on me? Although the shop was smashed today, I can bear the loss."

"The most important thing in doing business is to keep money and goods clear. How much money should be given to you, just how much money, I won't owe you a single copper."

Since the words have come to this point, it seems a bit hypocritical to return the money.

"That's good, I will definitely help you if you have difficulties in the future!"

"You've been very helpful today. If it weren't for you, Wuji wouldn't agree to let me join the army!"

"Hey, you're thinking too much." Liu Yu comforted him and said, "I think Wuji just said it casually. Isn't he also regretting that you waste your skills in doing business?"

"It's all a family, he won't despise you."

He Mai laughed. He didn't expect that the burly and muscular brother Ji Nu had such a delicate mind. Could it be that this is the so-called tenderness of a tough man?
"Although it's true that it's a family, it's because of the family that he hates me even more!"

He Wuji stopped his work and drank a cup of tea.

"Brother Ji Nu doesn't know. Although Wuji is a doctor of Taixue, he has always been unwilling to study. He grew up with General Yingyang since he was a child.

"Don't look at his fair skin, but he is a ruthless character!"

"And I," he stretched out a finger, poked himself, quite self-deprecating: "I am a pure scholar!"

"Neither martial arts, nor archery, at best not fall off a horse."

Liu Yu was horrified: What happened to this fellow?

He could still laugh?

Liu Yu never imagined that he had no knowledge of martial arts at all. It was impossible.

He asked suspiciously, "Boss He, are you kidding me? You are a son of a noble family, how could you not learn to bow, horse, ride and shoot?"

He Mai blinked, looking very innocent: "I am a man, from a family, how can I learn these things?"

Liu Yu was speechless, as if that was indeed the case.

There is a misunderstanding here. The skill of bowing, horse riding and archery is indeed an essential skill that needs to be learned by the noble children of the past dynasties.

The family attaches great importance to educating the younger generation, and family learning is prosperous, among which the focus is naturally on reading and writing. However, sophisticated and well-qualified families will also train their children in riding and archery skills.

Whether it is to kill the enemy in the future, or use it as a recreational skill, it is all excellent.

At least, the descendants of the aristocratic families during the Han Dynasty did this.

Strong man...

Strong man's...

You know, it's a strong man.

A big man with a strong style of martial arts, the wandering rangers in Chang'an City are definitely the target of the girls' pursuit, and a man who has no power in his hands will be ridiculed.

People don't even look at him directly, it's not good to dislike him.However, the stars have shifted, and now it is in the Jin Dynasty.

Well, this era is an ancient anomaly.

The men of the Jin Dynasty were never good at martial arts. The men here are most passionate about sitting and talking, and they don't care about everything else.

Don't look at the Jin Dynasty nobles are very proud of this set, in fact, this is a last resort, whitewashing Taipinger.

Why do you say that?
At this time of the Great Jin Dynasty, the pattern of separation between the North and the South was quite stable.In comparison, the Jin Dynasty, with its weak martial arts, was naturally inferior to those fierce Hu people in the Northern Dynasty when it came to fighting.

Even if he practiced every day and practiced every day, he was powerless.

The Hu people grew up on horses, and they were all natural warriors. They were all good at bowing, riding, and shooting. Even if they took off their pants, they couldn't catch up.

The old rivers and mountains were all occupied by the Hu people, but he did nothing on his own side. Under such shame, another completely opposite emotion was born.

If you can't catch up, then just don't catch up.

You are good at bowing horses, that is because you are savage and only use strength.We are different. We are civilized people, full of knowledge, and we don't look down on you at all.

So, since the war is not good, then just make do with it, and even the soldiers will despise it by the way.

Generally speaking, it is about a unified and prosperous dynasty, the kind that is tough on the outside world and expands its territory, and it will definitely treat the soldiers kindly.

It can be seen from this that it is precisely because of the situation of being trapped in a corner of the south of the Yangtze River that it cannot be changed for a long time, and this makes the family of Jin Dynasty completely abandon the spirit of martial arts, let alone cross horses. Kou Wu Shi San is cultivating the way of the Heavenly Master, and you are too lazy to walk on the road. You need someone to help you when you go out.

Therefore, He Mai, a descendant of an aristocratic family who did not practice bowing and horses, was the norm in the Jin Dynasty.

"If that's the case, why do you still join the army?"

"I thought, you're just not good at it, but you can be a little bit better!" Liu Yu was even more curious when he understood these things.

He Mai disagreed: "Can't you join the army if you don't know how to bow a horse?"

"Didn't you just say that I just need to go to the military camp to be the master book?"

This question is really irrefutable.

"Yes, yes, but you obviously have many better choices. For a son of an aristocratic family like you, joining the army is not a good way out at all. Instead, you will lower your worth."

Although Liu Yu is reluctant to point this out, it is the truth.Although Liu Yu's ancestors are also officials, and it is said that their family is still a serious descendant of the Han Dynasty royal family.

But so what?

That was all hundreds of years ago, and who cares now, today's Liu Yu is just one of the most insignificant members of the poor family.

Not only do they have no shady official positions, but if they want to improve their lives, they can only be despised soldiers.Although, of course, this kind of discrimination is unreasonable, but he must endure this injustice before he can make a name for himself.

This is the limitation of the times. Liu Yu complained about himself here, but He Mai didn't listen at all.

"What if you don't know how to bow a horse?"

"I didn't go to join the army for glory and wealth. I only wanted to restore the Central Plains. If I only sat in the study and talked about mysteries, how could I achieve my goal?"

Unexpectedly, this round-faced, eloquent man had such a bearing, and Liu Yu was immediately ashamed.

"I've been thinking too much. I didn't expect Boss He to have such an ambition. Since that's the case, I hope we can get on the battlefield as soon as possible and show our ambitions!"

He Mai smiled happily: "Definitely!"

The two shook hands affectionately, full of infinite expectations for the future.
