With the help of Qiao Xuejun and Zhu Zhou, Zhao Yun's engineering department put the horse harnesses for all twenty-four carriages on the horses.
The horses were a little uncomfortable and were pacing back and forth in place. Some of them even tried to lift their hooves and kick backwards.
"Can this really transport goods?" Some people are still worried.
Qiao Xuejun: "This is normal. Help them adapt."
Zhu Zhou immediately stepped forward, comforted the horse that had raised its hooves, and said to Qiao Xuejun, "I followed what Elder An said and trained them to pull goods. They've done everything from pulling ropes to pulling wood."
That's true. Only a few horses have particularly strong reactions. Most horses are not that resistant, they just can't adapt.
Qiao Xuejun nodded: "The carriage is too big, that's normal. It's still early, and it won't be completely bright until 12 o'clock."
Qiao Xuejun and Zhu Zhou took the ice-harvesting team leaders and began to calm the horses.
Some people from the engineering department went back, and two people stayed behind to assist and record whether there was anything that needed improvement in the harness.
When it was almost 12 o'clock, more people came down from the base.
Qiao Xuejun saw a vague figure through the trees and thought it was Uncle Zhang coming to bring food, but when she looked closely, there were only two people and no food cart.
"Qiao Qiao."
As Qiao Xuejun approached, he heard shouting.
It’s elderly care!
She stopped what she was doing, handed the horse to the team leader who was listening to the lecture, and walked quickly towards the person who came.
"Mr. An, why are you out?" Qiao Xuejun walked up to Mr. An.
Accompanying Mr. An was his student Dr. An.
Mr. An was wrapped thickly in a rabbit fur coat with a layer of fish skin on the outside. He wore a large mask covering his face, leaving only a pair of smiling eyes exposed.
His voice came through the mask: "I heard that this batch of ice-footed horses are going to play today, and I want to come and see the results of the training."
Qiao Xuejun took Elder An to the horse, touched its mane, and introduced it, "We just brought it here this morning. It's just getting used to the ice harvester. We plan to go down and try it out when daybreak comes."
Mr. An nodded: "Oh, how are you adapting now?"
Qiao Xuejun: "Master Zhu said that he followed all the training instructions you taught him before, and the horse's response is pretty good now."
Old An looked at the horses that had been harnessed to the ice-harvesting carts and nodded repeatedly, "Not bad, not bad."
Now the horses have adapted to the new environment and can pull the cart back and forth on the road.
Qiao Xuejun turned around and looked at Elder An: "After you finish your work, you should go back and rest. It's so cold, I remember that the base doesn't allow people to go out casually."
In this weather, there are ice chips on my eyelashes.
She and the ice-harvesting team train here, and hot water is available at all times. Ren Wangwang also placed a portable blue oil stove next to them so they can warm up when it's cold.
Elder An smiled and said, "It's the Lord. He's worried about my age. He's afraid something might happen to me."
He looked at the twenty-odd vehicles and said, "But aren't these ice-footed horses going into service today? I just wanted to come over and see if everything is going well. Do I need to continue to help, old man?"
Dr. An, standing next to him, looked at his teacher with a worried look on his face, but he didn't dare to say anything. He was also worried about his teacher's health; after all, he was really old. It was over forty degrees below zero!
But before coming down, the teacher warned him not to say anything and not to talk too much and hold back.
There are more than 20 carriages here, and only Qiao Xuejun and a coachman are busy teaching others. There must be a shortage of manpower.
I'm afraid he's really hoping his teacher will come and help him.
Dr. An didn't dare to say anything else and said, "I'll come and help too." He had to watch over the teacher and couldn't let anything happen to his health.
Qiao Xuejun looked at Dr. An with a strange expression: "You want to help...? You're so noble! If you were to do this job, your hoof would be raised higher than a horse's hoof."
Dr. An looked at Qiao Xuejun, angry but not daring to say anything: "..."
Qiao Xuejun looked at Professor An and said, "Mr. An, please go back. Master Zhu and I are here, and we're pretty busy. You should focus on research and development. Have you made any progress on the purple flower paralysis potion?"
Elder An was cheered up when he heard about the purple flower paralysis potion. "Good progress. We have already made the first phase of the reagents. The results of the first phase are generally in line with expectations. We still need to supplement the actual application results."
Ren Wangwang, who was standing nearby, also got excited. "When can we go to the battlefield? Especially those salmon today, they've been harassing us endlessly. The icy and snowy conditions limit our speed, so it's really hard to chase them. If we don't chase them, we'll just be giving them a hard time. They'll come back and harass us even more!"
Ren Wangwang was furious: "If I give him a shot now and paralyze him, I'll see if he can still run away."
An Lao: "Those salmon haven't stopped yet?"
The salmon's behavior over the past two days has also been mentioned to the research team. The research team has a special project to study sea monsters, and this is also a topic that they can study and refer to.
Ren Wangwang's face turned green. "No, they spit at us whenever we go to collect ice. And they run away when we try to fight them."
Dr. An, who was standing quietly nearby, immediately asked, "Is it still going on? I have some knowledge of sea monster behavior patterns. Can you take me over to have a look?"
Ren Wangwang hesitated: "It's quite dangerous."
Dr. An is also an expert, and an expert of a relatively high level of importance.
Qiao Xuejun said, "It's almost dawn, so the risk of a fight is relatively small. Why not take Dr. An down there now to take a look? If there's any progress, that would be great. It would also make it easier to get started later."
The purpose of bringing people back is to put them to use.
