Chapter 54: football outlook
"Liulang, you\'re going too far. You just have to be careful with the crown prince and the king of Wei. You also hide me, my old brother. I won\'t talk nonsense. Bring it here!" Seemingly aggrieved, he stretched out his hand in front of Li Yin.
"One thousand strings!" Li Yin said, shaking a watch.
"You are looking for money! Why don\'t you take money from the queen mother and father!" Li Ke\'s eyes widened.
"That\'s the elder, can it be the same? Besides, you still haven\'t paid back the five thousand coins you owe me!" Li Yan looked like a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water.
Li Yin refuses to be stubborn, Li Ke is a little frustrated, saying that this kid has changed, and his stingy temper has not changed at all. When he was thinking about how to cure Li Yin, Li Ke suddenly had an idea , "Hey, Liulang, don\'t you like hunting the most? My brother recently got a batch of Tibetan mastiffs. Are you interested?"
"Mastiff?" Li Yin recalled, and suddenly sat up, the mastiff that Li Ke was talking about was not today\'s Tibetan mastiff. In the Tang Dynasty, Tibetan mastiff had already appeared among the hounds used by nobles for hunting, "How many do you have? "This thing is worth a lot of money.
Li Yan was really moved, Li Ke laughed and said: "There are more than 20 of them. These are specially transported from Tubo by my subordinates, and they are guaranteed to be purebred!"
Li Yin threw the watch to Li Ke, "I want half of it!" Just like raising horses in captivity, captive hounds were also a symbol of the wealth and status of the nobles in the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, many aristocratic families kept many hounds for hunting. Wake up, there is not one in his palace!
"No problem!" Li Ke took the watch and said, the Tubo mastiff is precious, but it is not as good as this watch. He thought he had taken advantage of it and was overjoyed.
It is Li Yin who is really happy. In the 21st century, the number of purebred Tibetan mastiffs is rare. Once a purebred mastiff king was priced at more than 40 million, and a mechanical watch was only worth a few dollars, but this batch of Tibetan mastiffs Li Yin He didn\'t intend to sell it, and now he doesn\'t lack that few money, it\'s purely for decorating the facade of the palace.
Li Ke left, and Li Yin went to the martial arts arena of the palace. Sima Tu left and has not come back yet. The guards in the palace lost a leader, and the training was not as good as before, so Li Yin asked Qin Huaiyu to be the instructor temporarily.
At the beginning, Li Yin was a little worried that Qin Huaiyu would not be able to cure these old soldiers, but he obviously overthought. After these people knew that he was Qin Shubao\'s son, they all tucked their tails and behaved respectfully to Qin Huaiyu. It can be seen that Qin Shubao was among these soldiers. influence.
In this era of cold weapons, you must have a good body. Hunting and polo are all strenuous exercises.
"Your Highness, this grappling technique is really powerful!" Qin Huaiyu said after a contest with a guard. Although he won in the end, he was still afraid of the strange moves of this guard.
I bought a large set of books for Su More, and of course Li Yin did not forget to oil these guards. Among them are some modern basic grappling techniques. These veterans are illiterate, but luckily the grappling techniques are all pictures. According to gourd painting, these nursing homes are also well trained.
"These are all tricks to control people. It\'s fine in sparring alone, but it\'s not very effective on the battlefield. Don\'t practice, you must know how to work and rest!" Saying this, Li Yin threw a ball into the martial arts arena.
The eyes of these nursing homes lit up when they saw each other. Immediately, more than 20 nursing homes gathered together and began to discuss something. Qin Huaiyu looked strange and said, "Your Highness, what are they doing?"
"We are dividing into teams!" After Li Yin finished speaking, those nursing homes quickly divided into two groups, picked up the ball and started kicking. These nursing homes are now playing real football.
The martial arts arena is not big, and there are more than 20 people fighting together, it is very chaotic. Qin Shubao is confused, Li Yin pulls him and squats next to him, and begins to explain the rules of football to him. Polo was popular in the Tang Dynasty , but Li Yin always felt that the danger was too high, so Cheng Huailiang asked him several times and he didn\'t go to play polo. Instead, he taught the nurse to play football in his own yard. After a while, he Ready to promote this sport.
Under Li Yin\'s explanation, Qin Huaiyu initially understood how to play, and he was not a master who could sit still, so he joined the battle group after a while. In fact, these nurses didn\'t know any skills, and they just kicked together randomly for fun. , after all, there were too few recreational activities in the Tang Dynasty.
Looking at the small field, Li Yan frowned. Without a decent football field, how to promote football? Thinking of this, he got up and went to find Cheng Huailiang, and three cobblers beat Zhuge Liang.
"Your Highness, there is such a large field in Chang\'an City, but it is the polo field of Han Wang Li Yuanchang, he is a treasure, and he will definitely not sell it to you!" After Li Yin expressed his intention, Xiao Rui came out. soundtrack.
This Han king Li Yuanchang is the seventh son of Li Yuan, who is about the same age as Li Yin, but according to his seniority, Li Yuan has to call him Seventh Uncle.
"This is really difficult!" Li Yuanchang is obsessed with polo. It is well known that asking him to give up the polo field is no different from killing him. Besides, although Li Yuanchang is young, Li Yin is still his junior , and can’t be tough, this is no joke in the Tang Dynasty, which emphasizes benevolence and filial piety.
Cheng Huailiang glanced at Li Yin and said, "Your Highness, you don\'t play polo now, so what do you want to do?"
"Football Practice!"
"Football?" The three of them were all of fun-loving age, and they became interested immediately.
"It\'s useless to say it now, and I\'ll talk about it after I get the polo field done!" Li Min had a measure in his heart. Li Yuanchang likes polo, but he may not be able to like football. When he likes football, it depends on whether Li Yuanchang lets him Let this pitch.
"Oh, don\'t be greedy for us, Your Highness!" The three said anxiously.
Li Yan smiled and said, "Let\'s go, let\'s take you to try something new first!"
