Fish swimming around the world

Zhang Zhiling raised the curtain and asked outside, "Should we arrive at Nanchen Racecourse?"

The voice of the camel lion came from outside: "Ten miles ahead."

Zhang Zhiling nodded and put down the curtain: "Since you are passing by, let's go and have a look."

Jiang Fan hummed: "I also want to see how the good BMW horses I have acquired over the years are doing."

Nanchen Racecourse is the racecourse where when Ying Pei "rebelled", some people advocated splitting it into two parts and moving one part to the south. It is also one of the three most important racecourses in the Qin State.

Over the years, Jiang Fan exchanged luxury goods such as salt, tea, porcelain, and colored glaze for countless good horses from the barbarians. Except for a part of the Lishan Racecourse, most of them were domesticated at the Nanchen Racecourse.

The person who came to greet him was actually the servant Chen He, who was in charge of Ma Zheng. He happened to be patrolling here. When he heard that the regent was coming, he ran out without even putting on his shoes and saw this thick leg that he hugged.

Accompanying him was the person in charge of the racecourse, Wu Xiaoyun. This person is the most famous horse trainer in Qin State, and is called the owner of the horse here.

It was the first time for Wu Xiaoyun to meet the regent, and he was quite cautious. After all, in his eyes, this young man with a spring breeze on his face was definitely not as easy to get along with as he appeared. He was a killer, a killer through and through. Since he came to the Qin State, he has killed countless high-ranking officials and wealthy people. Like himself, he can crush them all with one finger.

Jiang Fan also saw his nervousness, but did not deliberately try to comfort him. He understood from Xiao Cui that kindness and power should be combined, and sometimes it is necessary to intimidate. In charge of such an important place as Nanchen Racecourse, he, the person in charge, must know how to be respectful.

Under the guidance of the two, Jiang Fan and Zhang Zaifu visited the racecourse together.

"After the racecourse moved south, Nanchen Racecourse was divided into two. The number of war horses is the largest here, mainly because it is southerly, with lush water and grass, and the horses are naturally fat and strong."

Chen He introduced with a smile.

Jiang Fan nodded: "Okay, are you acclimated?"

Wu Xiaoyun hurriedly stepped forward and introduced: "There will always be, but there are 3,000 trainers and more than 100 veterinary doctors under my command. They are all good at horse trails. They monitor day and night and dare not make the slightest mistake. So far, they have died due to water and soil problems. Only one percent.”

This number is quite beautiful, and Jiang Fan is also very satisfied.

Chen He said excitedly: "With the influx of horses from the north and cross-breeding, there are now 160,000 war horses here, all of which are top-quality horses."

To be honest, it's not surprising that Chen He was excited. Jiang Fan didn't expect that the scale of Nanchen Racecourse was so huge. You know, Qin State has three major racecourses, not counting Lishan Racecourse. In total, there are probably half a million war horses.

This is an extremely astonishing number. Jiang Fan vaguely remembers that during the reign of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty in his time and space, the horse breeding industry was vigorously developed. Until the 40th year of Linde, a total of eight workshops and twelve prisons were established, and the total number of horses was only more than 700,000. match.

"You have done a good job, but remember, the country is as big as the number of horses. The racecourse is related to the country's foundation, so we must not take it lightly." Jiang Fan earnestly asked.

"Yes, yes, Prince Regent, don't worry, my subordinates and others will do their best."

Looking at the top boss in his mind facing a young man in the distance, a young man wearing a green cloth shirt looked surprised.

"That person is so young, he must be a relative of the emperor."

"Shhh - don't talk nonsense." Dr. Ma, a man in his fifties next to him, quickly patted him.

"Don't talk nonsense, that person is the current regent."

The young man was shocked: "Are you really that young?"

"That's natural. His Royal Highness the Regent was crowned king at the age of sixteen, and now he has three great princes. This is unprecedented in ancient times. This is a person from the sky. We can only look up to him from a distance in our lives." Dr. Ma said with emotion.

As for this young man who was obviously an aspiring racehorse, instead of being depressed when he heard this, he stared in the direction of Jiang Fan: "One day, my grandson Liang will walk in front of His Highness so that he can see me!"

Dr. Ma shook his head and sighed: "Ziliang, my uncle knows that you are good at horsemanship, but it is nothing more than that. Those who can come before His Highness are all great talents in the country. In his eyes, he does not see a little stable boy like you. Work hard." Come on, there will be an extra meal tonight because of His Highness’s visit.”

The young man didn't take it seriously, staring in Jiang Fan's direction, his eyes brighter and brighter.

"Uncle... I heard that His Highness the Regent established a school in Lishan. He specializes in speaking and art, so there is no need for all-round talents. Although my grandson Liang is a young horseherd, he has the magic skills of looking at horses. Horses are also a major event for the country. , Why can't I play a greater role? Today... is a rare opportunity, and it would be unforgivable if I missed it..."

Dr. Ma was startled, as if he saw that he was about to make a move. Before he could dissuade him, the young man had already dropped the fodder in his arms and rushed forward.

"Oh - it's fatal -" Dr. Ma couldn't stop him in time, and his face turned pale.

Jiang Fan was listening to Wu Xiaoyun's report when he suddenly heard a commotion. He couldn't help but froze for a moment. He turned around and saw many people struggling to hold down a young man dressed as a horseherd.

But the young man looked directly at himself, struggled hard, and shouted: "I want to see your highness, I want to see your highness!"

The leader of Wuchang frowned suddenly, not expecting such a sudden change, and immediately shouted: "Whoever is causing trouble, let me catch it!"

The young man struggled endlessly: "Your Highness the Regent, the common people please see me, the common people please see me - the common people must offer treasures!"

The owner of the black farm looked livid. He didn't expect that a stable boy would come out to cause trouble, causing him to lose all face. He immediately said angrily: "I'm going to catch this nonsense and put him in jail!"

Jiang Fan looked at the young man's bright and firm eyes, his expression slightly moved, and he stretched out his hand to stop him: "Wait, let him come closer to talk."

The owner of Wuchang hurriedly said: "Your Highness, this man is just a horseman, I think he is trying to attract attention. You are busy with all kinds of things, why bother, I will definitely discipline him strictly..."

Jiang Fan waved his hand: "No need to say more, let him come over."

Seeing this, Chen He hurriedly said: "Don't talk nonsense, Your Highness wants to see him, why don't you bring people forward quickly!"

The owner of Wuchang didn't dare to say much, hurriedly walked up, and ordered people to escort the young man to Jiang Fan.

The young man shook off the guards and bowed: "I, your grandson, pay my respects to your Highness."

Jiang Fan looked down at him: "Raise your head."

The young man was also unambiguous, and immediately straightened his back and looked up.

This is a young man in his twenties, with an ordinary appearance, but a pair of eyes as bright as stars.

"Your name is Sun Ziliang?"

"Yes," the young man said calmly, "I am Sun Ziliang, and I have a treasure to offer."

Jiang Fan was immediately interested: "Oh? What treasure?"

"Horse Appraisal Book!"

Jiang Fan was stunned: "Horse Appraisal Book?"

"Yes!" the young man said proudly, "Horses are the most important tools of a country, and we must observe them carefully. I have been raising horses since I was ten years old, and it has been seventeen years so far. I am proficient in the art of horse appraisal. Unfortunately, my status is low, and I have no way to display what I have learned. I hereby recommend myself!"

Jiang Fan was very interested: "Come on, present it."

The young man suddenly looked embarrassed: "...I haven't written it yet..."
