Three Kingdoms: At the beginning, Lu Bu was mistaken for his father-in-law

Chapter 8

"In terms of ordinary war horses, if you fight continuously for a month, the wear and tear of the horse's hooves will reach the limit, and you must rest."

Archery among the six arts of a gentleman is not simply archery. A well-qualified family usually includes riding and swordsmanship, which requires them to have a certain understanding of war horses.

What's more, Lu Su's family has dozens of war horses.

"I just asked the blacksmith to make a horseshoe. The finished product is nailed to the horse's hoof, which can greatly reduce the wear and tear of the horse's hoof, and there is no need to rest the horse's hoof for at least half a year;
The most important thing is that even on a road full of rocks, a war horse with a horseshoe on it can walk on the ground as if it were flat. "

What Lin Mo said made Lu Su's pupils dilate, and he stood up suddenly and said, "Really?"

"Don't you have war horses at home? If you just build one, it shouldn't take long."

For this kind of product that transcends the times, it is more effective to let Lu Su tell the truth than to say a hundred words.

Lu Su felt that the tea in his hand was no longer fragrant, so he left the iron smelting room and ran back again.

Several blacksmiths teamed up and finally forged four horseshoes within an hour. After bringing in a horseshoe and nailing it on, Lu Su couldn't wait to ride on it.

He first ran around the courtyard, and he could clearly feel that the horse's hooves were indeed much calmer when they landed.

In order to further test, he simply galloped out of the city on his horse. Whether it was accelerating or stopping suddenly, or even difficult moves that he hadn't dared to try before, the horse under his seat was able to do it with ease. Lu Su couldn't help but be amazed.

"I didn't expect to have such an effect after nailing a horseshoe on a war horse."

In order to find out the advantages of the horseshoe, he even drove the horse on the cobbled road.

He tried it when he first learned how to ride a horse. Even if he let the horse walk on it, it would be easy for the horse to stumble, but this would continue to accelerate, and the horse could still walk on the ground. He finally believed what Lin Mo said was true.

"Yunwen! Yunwen! This horseshoe is a magic weapon!"

After returning to the mansion, Lu Su began to shout from a long distance away, "When this thing comes out, I don't know how many princes and families will be crazy about it!"

There are no war horses in the Central Plains. Over the years, as the battles between the princes have intensified, the demand for war horses has also reached an unprecedented level.

It can be predicted that once the horseshoe enters the market, it will become a hot existence.

"What do you think Zijing is worth?" Lin Mo asked with a smile.

"Priceless treasure!" Lu Su was full of confidence.

"I want to use the name of the Lu family to sell this thing in Xuzhou, and make a profit. You and I can share it equally, how about it?"

"really?"

This was simply sending money to himself, Lu Su couldn't believe his ears.

After getting an affirmative answer, the two immediately started to discuss issues such as pricing, sales and channels.

Lu Su, who regarded horseshoes as a divine tool, made extremely careful calculations, and even disapproved of Lin Mo's eagerness to exchange them for cash.

So, in the next few days, Lu Su ran to Lin's house early in the morning and didn't leave until the curfew was approaching.

After five full days, the matter was finally finalized and the price was set at one gold pair.

In the Han Dynasty, one piece of gold was equivalent to [-] baht, or ten guan, which was already sky-high in terms of wasted iron.

The channel is controlled by the Lu family. There is no way. After all, there is no such thing as a patent in this era. If you want to use the Lu family's momentum to sell, the channel can only belong to them.

"Sell the horseshoe to Lu Bu?"

Lin Mo didn't care too much about channels, and he wanted to exchange some money as quickly as possible to train a group of guards.

If you want to get the fastest and the largest amount of money, of course you should sell the most horses to Lu Bu.

But when Lu Su heard this statement, he was stunned.

In the past few days, because of the horseshoe incident, he was so excited that he forgot that Yunwen was the son-in-law of Marquis Wen. This proposal made the extremely excited Lu Su calm down suddenly, and an inexplicable idea appeared in his mind.

Could it be that Marquis Wen failed to win over the Lu family many times, and deliberately arranged for Yunwen to approach me?

After getting along with each other, we can be sure that Yunwen is definitely not something in the pool. Whether it is literary talent, military art or even the current overall situation, he has a unique vision. Coupled with his extraordinary skills, this person will be famous all over the world sooner or later.

Attract our Lu family with Yunwen's potential and future?
Lu Su felt that this possibility was very high. As for Lu Bu's statement that Lin Mo didn't know his identity, it might be an excuse.

"Okay, I will follow what my brother said."

Taking a deep breath, Lu Su put away his scattered thoughts. No matter what, Yunwen is still a friend worth making. As for whether the Lu family should seek refuge with Lu Bu, we can look at Yunwen's ambition.

"Now that everything has been agreed upon, Zijing can give me fifteen gold first."

"Why?"

"Your family has [-] war horses, [-] to [-] cents, and I get [-] gold."

It makes sense, brothers still need to settle accounts clearly, Lu Su nodded and said: "I will send someone over tomorrow."

"By the way, Zijing, I would like to hire a few nurses, preferably with some knowledge of martial arts. Do you have suitable candidates?" With the money, Lin Mo planned to start his own plan immediately.

"It's not difficult. There is a shop in the east of the city, and the shopkeeper specializes in providing nursing homes for people."

Lu Su took a sip of his tea and continued: "Since Cao Cao massacred the city, a lot of refugees have flooded into the three counties. Those who can do farm work have become serfs for the powerful, and those who know some martial arts have gone to the east of the city to make a living. "

After the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the separatist war intensified, and the local powerful families also paid more attention to private armed forces. They often incorporated people who knew a little bit of fist into the government soldiers.

If you don't want to be a soldier for others and want to be free at any time, then go to the nursing home.

No matter what era, some people like to weave, and some people like to do casual work.

The most famous one is Guan Yu, who once worked as a nursing home for others.

"Then after I get the money tomorrow, I will trouble Brother Zijing to take me there."

"It's okay, it's a trivial matter." Lu Su waved his hand.

In Xiaopei City, Gao Shun, who served as the vanguard, and Zhang Liao, the deputy general, set up a big village outside the city.

After Lu Bu arrived with [-] infantry, he arranged them in an orderly manner according to each battalion, department, and song.

"Marquis Wen, when the soldiers were settled just now, I didn't see Chu Nan. Where did he go?" Zhang Liao, who walked in from outside the tent, asked curiously.

Wei Yue was not listed among Lu Bu's Eight Great Generals, but he was truly fierce. In a tough battle like this, he dared to be the first to ascend, so Zhang Liao would naturally pay more attention.

"I entrusted him with some things, don't worry about it."

Lu Bu waved his hand and avoided the topic, "The army has come from a long way, rest for a day, and the next morning, the soldiers will come to Xiaopei!"

Seeing that Chen Gong had nothing to add, Lu Bu waved his hand to signal for everyone to return to the camp.

Two days later, under the city of Xiaopei, Lu Bu with sword eyebrows and starry eyes wore a purple gold crown with three-pronged hair on his head, a Xichuan red cotton robe with hundreds of flowers on his body, a chain armor with a beast face swallowing his head, an exquisite lion barbarian belt with armor around his waist, and Fang Tianhua in his hand. The halberd, the red rabbit horse whistling under the crotch, became the most dazzling existence in the crowd.

"Big-eared thief, Wenhou Yuanmen shot a halberd to rescue you, but you secretly conspired with Cao thief to seize Wenhouzhou County. This is the evidence of your crime, and you will not leave the city to die!"

Gao Shun rode a war horse, and galloped back and forth in Xiaopei City with the so-called secret letter of collusion with the spear in his right hand.

This is not to be polite before soldiers, but to put on the name of a teacher.

From the beginning of the Warring States period, when the army goes out to fight, it pays attention to righteousness and righteousness. Standing on the side of justice can not only boost the morale of one's own side, but also make the opponent's soldiers fall into a certain degree of panic.

After Gao Shun yelled several times, more than 1 people behind Lu Bu began to shout in unison.

"Victory! Victory! Victory!"
