"Maod, have you noticed that there are more and more two-wheeled chaises in the capital nowadays."

Facing Wu Cai’s doubts, Shi Yiwen said with a smile.

This kind of chaise was originally in the mid-19th century. The British man John Henson invented a chaise. This two-wheeled chaise drove behind the car was popular as soon as it was invented for its lightness, speed and flexibility.

After Shi Yiwen introduced it into this world, it was immediately sought after by the rich officials and officials. Compared with sedan chairs, it was faster, and the cost of raising a horse was much less than that of several sedan chairmen. In this way, the lightweight carriage that is affordable and more comfortable is naturally popular among people.

"I have indeed had a lot more recently. To be honest, my carriage business has rented all of these 100 carriages, and none of them are idle. Now I am still thinking about adding some carriages/"

Because he had invested in a taxi carriage business, even if Wu Cai did not directly participate in business, he was quite familiar with this. After saying this, Wu Cai finally understood the meaning of the boss.

"I understand. What the young master means is to breed a horse and sell it?"

“It is indeed the case,”

Nodding slightly, Shi Yiwen smiled.

"No matter how many horses there are, it is not too many. After all, it has many uses. Whether it is our carriage or the railway in the future, it will require a large number of horses. Even if there are more and more civilian carriages in the future, it will definitely become more and more popular. By then, the tall horses raised by our horse farm will definitely be popular in the market."

Even if there is a steam locomotive in the future, it will not affect the carriage or the horses. After all, before the emergence of cars, horses have always been the most important means of transportation. According to the experience of later generations, the modernization of any country is accompanied by the modernization of horse politics, which is actually to introduce modern horse breeding science and breed and improve the country's horses.

This is the most successful thing in another time and space. In just a few decades, Japan completely changed the situation where the horses in its own country were too short to use. Even in those fourteen years, compared with the shortness of the Japanese, the "Oriental Horse" formed a rather funny picture instead of it.

Now, I also have the opportunity to improve the horses of the Ming Dynasty. Although I cannot promote the reform of horse administration with the power of the country like Japan, the market...the market has driven people to take the initiative to improve horses. After all, horses can be sold at the price, and for high-ranking officials, they are naturally willing to use tall horses instead of Mongolian horses like donkeys.

In the future, merino sheep can be bred on that pasture to obtain high-quality wool. After all, in the future, in the Little Ice Age, the people need warm clothing materials such as sweaters and wools in addition to cotton coats. They can even breed new types of pork, beef cattle and dairy cows. That pasture may become another foundation of the Ming Dynasty like Shitaizhuang.

Thinking of this, Shi Yiwen couldn't help but feel a little excited, and a special emotion even emerged from his heart. It seemed that he had seen some change and was promoting this change step by step.

That night, he lay beside the desk and under the illumination of the small desk lamp, Shi Yiwen wrote about the horse breeding path there.

"By hybridizing Arabian horses and Mongolian horses to the fifth generation and then crossing and fixing their offspring, a new type of horse similar to the Don hippos..."

While copying the materials on modern horse breeding, Shi Yiwen said to himself.

"It takes about fifteen years to go through three years. Oh, this is really not something that can be accomplished in a short period of time. No wonder it is Ma Zheng's 20-year plan or something at all."

As for the breeding of heavy-pull horses, there was a successful experience in later generations of "Northeast Horse Racing", which was to first use light horses to increase the physical strength of local horses, and then use heavy horses to increase the strength of local horses to increase the strength of local horses, which played a good role in improving agricultural horses in the Northeast. Finally, based on this, the "Tieling Horse Racing" with horsepower equal to a liberation car was cultivated. In this regard, we can naturally use it directly.

However, it is only limited to this. After all, in another time and space, when the New China began to promote modern horse breeding, horses had begun to be replaced by machinery, and in the end all breeding work naturally had no future. However, with this information from later generations, Shi Yiwen believes that he is enough to change the backward situation of the Ming Dynasty's horse politics, at least to a certain extent.

"If this matter is done, maybe the railway will be built all over the world in the future..."

While talking to himself, Shi Yiwen heard the footsteps behind him. He could tell who it was without looking back. It was Kou Yun.

"Young Master, it's late at night. Is the young master resting there? Is it in the study or..."

Looking at Kou Yun with a pink face, Shi Yiwen, who understood her thoughts, smiled.

"Of course I went back to the house to sleep. You came just right. I helped me pinch my shoulders and wrote things for a long time. My shoulders were sore... Well, it felt comfortable."

Enjoying the comfort of pressing the shoulders with a slender finger, Shi Yiwen couldn't help but close his eyes and enjoy it.

While pressing the young master's shoulder, Kou Yun saw an envelope next to the lamp on the table. She had long been used to seeing the lamp emitting bright white light, so she didn't feel it fresh. When she saw the letter, she couldn't help but feel a little sad and said softly.

"Ms. Tang is very thoughtful. She knows what the young master needs when she is far away in Nanjing."

As a maid, although she felt a little sad, she knew that the status was very different, so she naturally didn't dare to have other ideas.

"Well, this time I owe her another favor, this favor..."

It's not easy to pay it back!

"Young Master, you said, she is so concerned about your affairs, would she have any thoughts about you?"

Kou Yun's words made Shi Yiwen stunned. In his surprise, he heard Kou Yun say sweetly again.

"Young master, I have heard that Miss Tang not only has many eyes, but also has the idea of ​​finding a son-in-law in her heart. She must have moved her mind to the young master. If this is true, the young master will never agree. This marriage to the family is insulting his ancestors."

Kou Yun's worries made Shi Yiwen laugh.

"You girl, I think a lot in my heart, I have a sense of my own attitude towards her..."

When he said this, Shi Yiwen turned his head and looked at Kou Yun's face that looked like a little girl, and couldn't help but press her palm on her hand.

"Young Master..."
