Destiny Only Han

Chapter 523 Liu Ying: Do you know what picking peaches is?

In the room with old and simple decoration and no gold and jade, Liu Ying leaned against Tai Gong Liu, lowered her head to pick up the rice, with a weeping expression on her face.

Opposite him were Liu Bang, who was blowing his beard and staring, and Liu Jiao, who had a bad face.

Especially Liu Jiao, he is still dissatisfied with Liu Ying because of the lack of matchmaker roles...

Mrs. Liu tapped on the table with a quickie: "Who are you staring at, third child?"

Liu Bang waved his hand, poked Liu Ying's head with his index finger and said, "Don't worry, Dad, this brat has no one to tell the truth, and sooner or later he will suffer from it!"

"I was wrong!" Liu Ying raised her head, still maintaining a weeping expression.

Liu Jiao said with a stern face: "Write a sequel and add drama to the matchmaker! I will pay for it and print [-] copies..."

"Get out!"

"Get out!"

Amidst the unanimous voice of Liu Taigong and Liu Bang, Liu Jiao showed a grievance on his face.

In fact, he has always been sentimental, especially fond of poetry and poetry. For this reason, he recruited a group of like-minded brothers to refine the "Book of Songs" and save the chaff from the chaff. In particular, Liu Ying dug open the ancestral house of Confucius' family , Many articles that have long been lost have been rediscovered, making the editing work more efficient.

However, after Xiao He built the Tianlu Pavilion and Shiqu Pavilion, which are equivalent to the National Library, the state took over the work of compiling the "Book of Songs". "The West Chamber"...

So, under his painstaking efforts, he traced all the way to the source, and found Liu Ying, whose alias is 'I eat sugar orange'...

At this moment, facing the yelling from his father and third brother in unison, Liu Jiao moved aside aggrievedly, making Chu Princess Yan want to laugh but dare not.

Well, "The Romance of the West Chamber" was recommended by her to Liu Jiao...

Liu Ying, taking advantage of Liu Bang's inattention, gave Liu Jiao a look of waiting to chat, and continued to cry and sell miserably.

Grandpa Liu witnessed all of this, but he didn't pay attention to it, and when he was young, the society was very chaotic, men and women were nothing...

He stretched out his fingers and tapped on the table: "Stop talking nonsense, eat quickly, didn't you say that there is an opening ceremony to attend after eating?"

Liu Ying whispered: "The first Xiaoqi Cup..."

Taigong Liu nodded his head heavily, with a longing look on his face: "Yes, that's the name! I've seen people playing polo in Xinfeng for many years, and there's nothing new about it! But this time, it's really a national player Are you all coming?"

Liu Jiao came over and said: "Of course, your good grandson took 100 million yuan as a reward, so the world's masters can't wait around? Let alone others, I have formed two teams to compete, and I don't know if I can win." Not in the top sixteen..."

Liu Bang smashed it and asked:
"I'm not interested in this. I like cuju, but I don't like polo... So I have a question, why the prize money of the Dafeng Cup is 1000 million, and the prize money of the Xiaoqi Cup is only 100 million. It's not that the threshold of polo is better than that of cuju. Is it high? Why is the bonus so small?"

Liu Jiao nodded agreeingly: "Yes, I think so too."

...

Looking at the pair of eyes cast towards him in unison, Liu Ying scratched her head and said:
"That's right, it's because the threshold for Cuju is low, so there are more people playing and watching, and more people betting on it... The commercial value is high, and the bonuses are naturally generous..."

"Polo is just the opposite. The threshold is high, and there are many people who watch it, but there are few players. Naturally, they don't understand it. If they don't understand it, they dare not bet. There is no commercial value, and the bonus is low!"

On the other side, Yan raised his hand weakly: "I don't understand, why is the polo threshold high? What do you mean?"

Liu Jiao shook his head, and explained to his daughter-in-law 'Why not eat minced meat':
"If you want to play polo, you need a good horse first! And the price of this kind of horse can easily be hundreds of thousands of dollars! This is not a figure that ordinary people can afford, and this is just an entry, because When the ball is hit, players generally have to change two to three horses!"

"In polo, the maximum number of players on both sides is ten, but there is no limit to the minimum. That is to say, the number of players on both sides is not required to be exactly equal. If you want, no one will care about you if you play against ten players alone."

"But under normal circumstances, a team needs at least five people, which means that a good horse worth [-] yuan must prepare at least [-] horses. After all, it needs to be rotated, and the horses must be prevented from being injured. ride……"

"Then, there are grooms, horse trainers, coaches and handymen who train the players. Perhaps only a rich family like yours can easily form a polo team..."

Yan looked at the Supreme Emperor, the Emperor, the King, and the Crown Prince in this room, and wanted to complain, but finally swallowed the words, and just stretched out her hand quietly to pinch Liu Jiao.

I tm eat dog food early in the morning, Zhuo... Liu Ying rolled her eyes, and then said: "So the bonus is just for fun, and it is other policies that really make the world's masters gather in Xinfeng City."

"For example, a horse trainer can obtain the title of 'Bi Ma Wen', enjoy the extra allowance given by the imperial servant's house, and spend no less than ten days every year to go to the official horse farm to teach experience..."

"Another example is the racecourse that provides horses to the championship team, will receive an official order and become a supplier for the army..."

"There is also the champion player who has won the cup. If they want to, they can directly join the army and get a position no lower than a hundred generals..."

Leaving aside the horse trainer, this kind of technical talent is often inherited from the family, and the titles they get are just for fun. Most of the players who can play polo are either rich or expensive, and they all have quite a bit of titles. If they don't become champions, they won't be top soldiers after enlisting in the army. The so-called hundred generals are nothing more to them...

Therefore, the most attractive thing is actually the second one, becoming a military supplier.

Well, to make an analogy, the tractor factory has obtained the qualification to produce tanks...

In any country with a well-functioning social order, this is undoubtedly a ticket to wealth.

And this is what Liu Ying wants to see.

Official breeding can easily fall into rigidity and dogma. At this time, it is necessary to continuously introduce new breeds from the people. For example, the famous thoroughbred horses in later generations are bred by folk enthusiasts.

In this era when internal combustion engines cannot be miniaturized, cavalry is still the king of the battlefield, so the more good horses, the better.

The important thing is that without the support of biological science and genetics, breeding excellent horse breeds is undoubtedly a move to open the blind box, so folks need to brainstorm...

Well, in other words, it is necessary to let private racecourses bear the cost of trial and error, and then Liu Ying only needs to pick up ready-made ones. Anyway, intellectual property rights these days are things that you can't laugh at...
