Pointing at the basket, Han Zhen signaled: "The money is here, count it."

The middle-aged man actually squatted on the ground and started counting money one by one.

Han Zhen ignored him and stepped to the horse and looked at it carefully.

This is a stallion, but it has been castrated.

I was a little uncertain before, but now I can be sure that this is a war horse.

War horses will be castrated because the castrated horses are gentle in nature, easy to train and more suitable for combat.

The horse seemed very gentle, and even Han Zhen reached out to touch it, but he just tilted his head.

After touching it for a while, after the war horse was slightly familiar with his scent, Han Zhen tried to comb it with his hands.

It seems that some days no one bristles it, and the war horse looks particularly comfortable, with its head slightly raised, its eyes half-closed, and it looks like it is enjoying itself.

At this time, the middle-aged man finally counted the money, and saw him pick up more than a dozen copper coins and handed them over and said, "You've given too much!"

When I gave the money just now, Han Zhen didn't care.

After all, he really doesn't have the patience to count slowly for twenty-five stakes.

What surprised him was that the man was not greedy for small gains and chose to return the excess money.

Something interesting!

Han Zhen took the money, looked at the other party again, and asked with interest: "The man from Qin Fenglu? Which is the subordinate of the secretary of the strategy?"

He guessed that the other party was probably a fleeing army, and the only Western Army in Qin Fenglu who could be equipped with such well-equipped war horses in the entire Song Dynasty.

The middle-aged man did not answer, but said, "If you still want to buy a horse, you can go to Songshanling to find me, my name is Wei Da."

Han Zhen's heart moved and asked hurriedly: "How many horses do you have?"

He didn't expect that buying a horse would be a surprise.

Horses in the Song Dynasty were an important strategic resource. At most, the people could only buy low horses that could be used as war horses. All good horses that could be used as war horses were firmly controlled by the government.

Wei Da said vaguely: "There are some more."

It is normal for the other party to be wary, and Han Zhen didn't care and continued to ask: "It's also twenty-five slogans?"

"Um!"

Wei Da nodded, took off his clothes and covered it on the basket, and left with difficulty.

Songshanling, Wei Da.

Han Zhen secretly wrote down in his heart that he might have the opportunity to cooperate in the future.

...

This war horse is a little thin. It is obviously because the food is not good recently and needs to be supplemented with grain and salt.

Because he was not familiar with it, Han Zhen did not dare to ride a horse and could only lead the horse back to the temple.

A bag of soybeans and wheat were taken out from the kitchen, mixed it into a wooden basin, and then mixed it with well water to a basin of salt water.

Before Han Zhen could put down the wooden basin, the guy leaned over his head and opened his mouth to eat.

After a while, a pot of mixed grains was eaten up, and then I started to enjoy salt water.

After eating and drinking, the war horse sniffed.

Han Zhen could clearly feel that he was closer to himself.

This is how beasts are. Whoever treats it can be distinguished clearly.

Han Zhen knew that it was time to get closer, so he continued to start combing his hair with his hands.

As he combed, he suddenly found that there was no horseshoe on the horse's shoulders.

In theory, war horses will definitely install horseshoes...

Could it be that horseshoes did not appear during the Northern Song Dynasty?

Han Zhen did not specialize in historical research in his previous life, so this question touched his knowledge blind spots.

It’s useless to think so much, just go to the blacksmith shop to ask.

If the horseshoe has appeared at this moment, then the blacksmith will understand just by lifting a mouthful.

Thinking of this, Han Zhen reinstalled a piece of copper coins and led the reins to the blacksmith shop.

When he came to the blacksmith shop again, Han Zhen first paid the final payment and got the Park Knife forged by stainless steel. He asked casually: "Shopkeeper Tian, ​​do you have horseshoes here?"

"What?"

Manager Tian was stunned.

Han Zhen changed his name again: "It's horseshoe!"

As a result, Manager Tian still looked confused.

Now it is certain that horseshoe did not appear in the Northern Song Dynasty.

After talking and gestured for a while, Han Zhen finally let Manager Tian understand what he wanted.

I saw Manager Tian looking at him with a strange expression, wanting to speak but stopping.

Han Zhen was a little impatient and frowned: "Can you fight?"

"Of course I can fight, please wait."

For Manager Tian, ​​horseshoe is a thing that has no technical content and can be created at will.

He just couldn't understand why Han Zhen was fantastic about making 'shoes' for horses.

Maybe I have made some money recently and have been floating around.

Thinking to himself, Manager Tian couldn't help but laugh secretly.
