My Backyard is the Tang Dynasty

  The equipment purchased by Li Yin is still relatively close to the technological level of the early Republic of China. For people in the Tang Dynasty, it is not too difficult to adapt to these equipment. They are all manual, without a lot of buttons and data.

Of the three workshops, Li Yin is most worried about the paper workshop. There is no need to worry about the wine workshop. The ready-made distiller can easily bring in a group of people with the old foundation of the palace. It is empty, and even if paper is made, these slaves are not qualified for printing. Li Yin asked, none of the five hundred slaves could read.

The papermaking equipment purchased by Li Yin is mainly large cooking pots, sieves, papermaking tanks, press barrels, wood grinders and other equipment. These equipment are all manually operated. The papermaking process is actually similar, but the equipment is ahead of the Tang Dynasty. Among them, Li Yin specially bought a large amount of lime and white alkali. These things are very cheap. Li Yin bought a lot at one time and put them in the warehouse, enough for the paper mill to use for a year or a half.

As for how to teach these slaves how to make paper, Li Min specially asked Lu Boyan to transfer a group of paper craftsmen from the Ministry of Industry, and asked them to teach them some basic things, such as beating pulp, papermaking and so on. They were able to make paper from the Tang Dynasty. As for the newsprint for making newspapers and periodicals, after they became familiar with papermaking, Li Yin would teach them the raw materials and methods.

  Papermaking is not something that happens overnight, it can only be done slowly. Now Li Yin is depressed about another thing - riding a horse.

  Born as a prince, if he can't ride a horse, he will definitely be laughed out of his teeth by others, but Li Yin really can't.

  Riding horses has become a fashion in the Tang Dynasty, even some women are also used to riding horses in the streets. Every time when sitting in a carriage, Li Yin is very envious when he sees others galloping horses. This time he is determined to learn this skill.

Li Yin said he wanted to ride a horse. Jin Daqian immediately asked his servants to pull out a group of red horses from the horse peng. The famous sweat and blood horses, after the conquest of Taiwan, the Tang Dynasty seized a large number of war horses, including many sweat and blood horses, the general Li Jing personally escorted hundreds of Dawan horses to Chang'an and gave them to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin was very happy Yu didn't forget his sons either, and each of the older sons gave a horse.

If you don't know how to ride a horse, you have to find someone to teach you. Li Yin has no choice but to find Cheng Huailiang, an idiot, as his teacher. It's a ghost to play with this guy. After all, Li Yin was a good hunter in the past, and his equestrian skills are also considered first , for Cheng Huailiang's doubts, Li Yin's explanation is also very simple, his head was injured, so he forgot about it.

   "Your Highness, please get on the horse!" Cheng Huailiang laughed for a long time, but he still behaved like a teacher to Li Yin.

Stepping on the stirrups to climb on the horse, Cheng Huailiang took the reins and led the horse around the yard a few times, saying that he wanted to let him find some feeling first. Immediately do strenuous exercise, this will startle the horse, be sure to tighten the reins, check the girth every once in a while to prevent loosening, the rest is almost the same as driving, concentrate on, and avoid potholes in time.

   After looking for it, I felt it. Cheng Huailiang jumped on the horse and began to teach by hand again. This surprised Li Yin. Cheng Huailiang was thick on the outside and thin on the inside, just like his father.

   Having learned the basics, Li Yin can only rely on himself for the rest. Riding on the horse, Li Yin shakes the reins and urges the horse to move forward, turn, stop, and jump up.

Galloping horses is the dream in every man's heart. Basically, after he got his hands on it, Li Yin became addicted to riding. He started to practice horseback riding every day when he woke up. At first, he was in the courtyard of the palace, and slowly he began to ride on the street. , A few days later, Li Yin was able to gallop outside Chang'an City on horseback.

"I don't need to ride in a carriage anymore!" The gust of wind passed by my ears, and the trees on both sides quickly retreated. "Ouch!" Li Yin yelled, expressing his pride in his heart, this is a horseback bend In the era of bow and eagle shooting, a man should exercise.

After riding outside the west city for a while, Li Yin entered from the Chunming gate of Chang'an city and went straight to the horse market in the west market. During the Zhenguan period, in order to deal with the Turks, the horse administration of the Tang Dynasty rose, and many nobles took pleasure in raising horses. , There is also a stable in Prince Li Min's mansion, but Li Shimin used to control the monthly salary of Prince Liang's mansion, and the manor did not have much money to collect famous horses. Just as people who love cars like to collect famous cars, people who love horses naturally have the hobby of collecting famous horses. Li Yin was in the midst of a boom, and wanted to go to the horse market to buy a few healthy horses, firstly to enrich the stables of the palace, and secondly to equip a batch of healthy horses for each of the servants of the palace. , Just thinking about it, Li Yin arrived at the horse market.

   "The strong Hequ horse can travel thousands of miles a day, with ten copper coins for a horse. There is no such shop in the village!"

   "A Persian horse from the Western Regions, with excellent endurance and a docile personality..."

   "Large batch of horses for sale..."

   "..."

Li Yin led the red boy and walked in the horse market, surrounded by the sound of hawking one after another, and the horse dealer stood in front of his horse and kept reaching out to attract customers. In the past few days, he not only learned how to ride a horse, but also learned how to recognize a horse. His gaze was constantly gliding over the horse's coat color, face, posture, and ears.

   "This young man is holding a batch of hard-earned BMWs. It can be seen that he is someone who knows horses. How about taking a look at the horses?" Li Yin was walking when a horse dealer came up from behind and said loudly.

  Li Yin looked back and saw that this was a horse dealer dressed as a barbarian, with a rough face and dark skin, "Oh, what good horse do you have?"

  The barbarian trader said: "Without a good horse, how dare I stop the young master?"

   Li Yin became interested and said, "Please lead the way!"

Following the barbarians to a remote corner of the horse market, Li Min saw dozens of fat and strong prairie horses. These horses had shiny hair, small ears and big noses, straight and protruding chests, steady hooves, and strong muscles. A rare horse indeed.

  Li Yin fell in love with these horses at first glance. Now that the business of the palace is increasing, the servants and nurses often run to and fro, so the efficiency of horses will naturally be much higher.

   "How much are these horses?"

   "Fifteen strokes!"

   "It's so expensive!" Li Yin was speechless, "The Hequ horse just now was called a ten-peat one!"

   "Hehe, I thought the young master was an expert, but I didn't expect it to be my poor eyesight. How can those fodder-fed domestic horses compare with my grassland horses that grew up on the grassland!" Hu Shang said displeased.

  Li Yin thought about it for a while, and he was the only horse with the best quality in this circle, and said: "I want all your horses!"

   "Wait!" As soon as Li Yin's voice fell, a son came over with a young man, "I'll buy sixteen horses, sell these horses to me!"

  Li Yan frowned, and said displeasedly: "My little brother, everything comes first, first come first, I have already reached a deal with this merchant, you are a bit unkind!"
