"Well! General, I designed this, but brother Zhao Shenlong said that this design still has many flaws and is not practical!" Zhu Xiaobao bent down, and then said, this is not modesty, but the truth.However, Zhu Xiaobao has a good impression of General Zhao Meng, because although he looks rude and has the same name as him, he is very bold and has no airs towards Zhu Xiaobao. The family of the princess mansion are so polite.That's rare!
"That's right, there are many things that are unreasonable, but I've changed them again, do you want to take a look?" Zhao Meng didn't mean to keep it a secret. Originally, this thing was designed by Zhu Xiaobao, so why keep it a secret? !Besides, he meant to let Zhu Xiaobao take a look, so what suggestions could he have?
"Okay! I just want to see this kind of crossbow. To be honest, I haven't seen it yet!" Zhu Xiaobao was overjoyed and exclaimed very excitedly.
"General Zhao. I'm afraid this is inappropriate?" Wu Yue was a little hesitant. After all, a lot of military equipment was kept secret, and she didn't want outsiders to see it, although the relationship between the Seventh Princess and the Nineteenth Princess is very good now.
"It's okay! They are all commonly used equipment, not that serious! But you can also refer to it, after all, if you want to gain a foothold in Xiyuan City, many of your equipment are far from enough! I can't help you keep guard in Xiyuan City. Yuancheng!" Zhao Meng waved his hand and said, he was quite satisfied with Wu Yue in his heart, and he knew how to measure it.
"Thank you, General!" Wu Yue was also very excited. Zhao Meng's army has experienced countless battles, and it can be regarded as a generation of famous generals. Being able to visit his barracks is a very good learning opportunity.
Wu Yue and Zhu Xiaobao followed Zhao Meng to visit the site, and Zhao Meng also had twenty improved crossbows specially released, and they shot three rounds, one of which Wu Yue personally stepped forward. Go and shoot!
Zhu Xiaobao took a look, in fact, Zhao Meng didn't improve much, the biggest change was to change the original four wheels into Zhu Xiaobao's two wheels, and the two wheels increased a lot correspondingly, which made the mobile The speed is much more enjoyable, because during the war, there are few flat grounds, and the four wheels are not as convenient as the two wheels, and because the weight is reduced, the running is of course faster!Don't look at such a small improvement, but time is what is robbed on the battlefield, so Zhao Meng is very happy about this improvement!
Zhu Xiaobao took a closer look at the power of this powerful crossbow, and it can reach a distance of more than 250 steps.The lethality within its range is very terrifying.But the accuracy is indeed a bit poor, and it is only suitable for shooting at the enemy's large troops.
As for those cold weapons, Zhu Xiaobao had no interest, and the most famous catapult was not seen here, because it was too bulky, and Zhao Meng was guarding here, and it was not a siege, so it was not built.This kind of bulky equipment is generally not transported over long distances, but processed and manufactured nearby, and there are various craftsmen in the army.
After Wu Yue finished the visit, she felt shocked from the bottom of her heart. This is the real army capable of attacking cities and seizing villages. It is much stronger than the army of the nineteenth princess. There are several weapons piled up in the armory alone. There are millions of tents and arrows.There are actually a thousand of that kind of crossbow, that is to say, there are 2000 of Zhao Meng's men who are responsible for long-range attacks.His men were only ten thousand in total.
But Zhao Meng's equipment is definitely not something that the nineteenth princess can equip in a short time!In comparison, the strength of the Nineteenth Princess is too weak!After Wu Yue's visit, she felt a little anxious in her heart. Her troops urgently need to increase various equipment and long-range attack equipment!But all of this requires money, and it is a very huge investment!
After the visit, Zhao Meng did not accompany them anymore, but asked Zhao Shenhu and others to accompany Zhu Xiaobao. For Zhao Meng, he was already very enthusiastic just now.
Originally, Zhao Shenbao wanted to invite Wu Yue and the others to dinner, but Wu Yue politely refused, and she had to go back to work.
But Zhao Shenbao wanted to leave Zhu Xiaobao to stay in the camp for one more day, Zhu Xiaobao was very happy and agreed.Wu Yue hesitated for a while before reluctantly agreeing.Before leaving, he asked in a low voice: "You stay here, should I report to the princess?"
"Report? Whatever you want! It's not something shameful, I'm just playing for two days!" Zhu Xiaobao was a little surprised, this is also a report?Do you still have some freedom?
"Oh! Then I won't talk about it, you come back soon!" Wu Yue hesitated before saying in a low voice. She always felt that she should report to the princess in time, but she also knew that what Zhu Xiaobao hated the most was not being able to do anything. report.So Wu Yue hesitated and took the people away!Only Zhu Xiaobao, Ying Xiuxiu and others were left behind.
After Wu Yue left, Zhu Xiaobao asked, "Three, where's the elder brother? Why didn't you see him?"
"Enn, the boss has something to do, it's inconvenient, he should be back in the evening!" Zhao Shenbao said vaguely.
"That's good, let's drink and eat barbecue together in the evening. It seems that I have prepared everything before! Twenty catties is enough for us to eat!" Zhu Xiaobao didn't care, maybe it was inconvenient to say because of some special tasks , but Zhu Xiaobao had made enough preparations, Ying Xiuxiu and the others immediately packed several big bags full of prepared ingredients.
……
Wu Yue went back to the nineteenth princess, and after explaining it, she talked about her visit to Zhao Meng's camp, and said anxiously: "Princess, compared with General Zhao Meng, we are really far behind. , You didn’t see that, just the kind of crossbow operated by two people, he has a thousand in his armory. We must hurry up and equip these weapons!”
"Oh! Yes, but I have no money now. Besides, I can't take care of it now. I just took over Xiyuan City. Many things are very chaotic. I am almost worried to death! I can't think of managing a Xiyuan City. It's so annoying!" Princess Nineteen said a little tiredly.
These days, Princess Nineteen is not even in the mood to talk about love, and her heart is full of these messy things.In fact, this is the result of Xia Zixiu's sharing, otherwise she would be even more tired.
The nineteenth princess really felt that her strength was really weak, and she didn't have any foundation here. It would be almost impossible to gain a firm foothold without a three-year period.The most urgent thing now is not to increase the army's equipment and equipment, but to solve the food problem.
Due to the shortage of food, many merchants have started to raise prices, or are reluctant to sell. In two or three months, the food in stock will be completely gone!At that time, my troops will have to spend money to buy food for their troops, which is another huge burden.
Now the nineteenth princess can count on her [-]% quota of soap and tea to open for business as soon as possible, hoping to make some money immediately to save the emergency!Even Princess Nineteen wanted to borrow the money from Zhu Xiaobao and Ji Zhizhen first.Just haven't spoken yet!Unless it is absolutely necessary, the nineteenth princess will not say this!
But in Zhao Meng's camp, Zhu Xiaobao didn't know what Princess Nineteen was thinking, he was having a good time drinking, boss Zhao appeared out of nowhere, a few people found a very secluded place, and It's barbecue, cold dishes, and the good wine from the Seventh Princess, which made Zhao Shenlong and others dumbfounded. Although they knew that Zhu Xiaobao would cook these things, they didn't expect him to prepare such a sumptuous meal. The three female guards turned out to be his followers!
"You still have your own guards? Have you done all three?" Zhao Shenbao asked in amazement.I didn't expect that last time I was arguing about going to the brothel, but now I have already settled it myself?In his opinion, since he bought it, he must have slept with it!
"Ah! Don't talk nonsense, I am very innocent! And Wu Yue is too tight, there is no chance!" Zhu Xiaobao said a little embarrassed.
"Ah? Haha, haha, I didn't expect Wu Yue to be so clever that she was able to subdue you!" Zhao Laosan suddenly laughed happily. Back then, Zhu Xiaobao was dragged by Wu Yue's neck from the brothel. The fact that he was taken away at the door is still fresh in his memory!So happy!
"Zhao Laosan, I've already given you a present, and you're still burying me here? Boss, drive him away, I don't want to see him anymore!" Zhu Xiaobao shouted angrily.After he came, he gave each of Duanmu Shishilang two pieces of soap and two pieces of toilet paper.Anyway, this thing is worthless and very popular, so he has always used it as a favor.But in the eyes of others, these things are rare and good things, worth several taels of gold!And it’s still priceless!
Boss Zhao also thought it was funny, he wanted to comfort Zhu Xiaobao, but he didn't expect to see a person walking from a distance, Boss Zhao's expression changed immediately...
Chapter 82 Copper Centerless
Zhu Xiaobao also saw that something was wrong with Boss Zhao, and when he turned his head, he saw that it was a woman walking over, dressed in a black dress, very cool, with a pretty face, and young, probably in her early twenties , but because of this, the three brothers of the Zhao family are a little unnatural to see her!
"Wuxin! You... you... why are you here? I... I..." Boss Zhao's usual composure was gone, and he stuttered a little, not knowing what to say.
"Hmph! You don't have to avoid me, I'm not here to look for you today!" The woman looked at Boss Zhao resentfully, and then said coldly.
"Oh...that's good!" Boss Zhao relaxed a little, but his heart was still in a mess.
"Old Eleven, why are you here?" Zhao Shenbao was also a little at a loss and asked a very idiotic question.
"Hmph! Didn't you invite Duanmu Shishilang? Am I not a member of Duanmu Shishilang?" The woman in black had already walked to the barbecue stone slab and sat down.The people next to her quickly made room for her!
"Did you bring this thing?" The woman in black looked at Zhu Xiaobao and asked directly.She was referring to the soap and toilet paper that were placed around everyone.Didn't Zhu Xiaobao give each of those people a share, and now they are all kept by their side.
"Hee hee! This sister, what's your name? My name is Zhu Xiaobao, I brought this thing, to be precise, I made it!" Zhu Xiaobao is very experienced in dealing with women, and he is not stage frightened at all. !
"Well, my name is Tong Wuxin, and I want a share of this too! What are your conditions!" Tong Wuxin didn't seem to be negotiating at all, but was waiting for Zhu Xiaobao to offer a condition.
"No problem, you are from Duanmu Shishilang, of course you have a share! Here it is!" Zhu Xiaobao knew Duanmu Shishilang a long time ago, but this time only ten people came, so he gave away ten copies.Who would have thought that the old Eleven would show up. Fortunately, he had a lot of spares in his bag, so he took out one right away.
It turned out that Tong Wuxin came with the Seventh Princess' warship this time, and originally wanted to use a carriage to pull it back, but now that Xiyuan City is in his own hands, the Seventh Princess sent two warships.
The fiefs of Xiyuan City and the Seventh Princess are actually in the south, the Nineteenth Princess is in the southwest, and the Seventh Princess is in the southeast, separated by a huge mountain range. The trend gradually slowed down, gradually turning into a plain in the middle of the Great Xia Kingdom, and it ended in the Central South County of the Great Xia Kingdom.
And Xiyuan City is actually a county, and it is a county with a very wide area. A small area in the westernmost part of its periphery is connected to the sea, and further west, it is covered by mountains.Formed a natural safe haven.Seventh Princess's boat could just come over, but it couldn't reach the shore, because the beach bordering Xiyuan City was too shallow, so generally it could only be parked outside the port. If you want to land, you have to change to a small boat.
This time Tong Wuxin came with the warship. Of course, when he landed, he put down a few small boats from the warship!The reason why the Seventh Princess took a fancy to Xiyuan City was because her fleet could arrive here, and once the time was right, she could occupy this place.
Speaking of Tong Wuxin's identity is very special, she is the daughter of the biggest pirate Tong Jiao, but in the end Tong Jiao also died at her hands, because Tong Wuxin's mother was snatched back to the island when the pirate leader Tong Jiao robbed her. Yes, and she was raped, she became the woman of Tongjiao on the island, and gave birth to Tongjiao, so Tong Wuxin lived with the pirates when she was young, her water skills are excellent, and her martial arts are also very outstanding , of course, was also influenced by pirates, so he was very ruthless and ruthless in his actions!
Later, when Princess Seven used four hundred warships to pacify Tong Jiao, the biggest sea bandit, and surrounded Tong Jiao on the island, seeing that there was no hope of escape, Tong Jiao killed her own women, including Tong Wuxin. mother.So Tong Wuxin was very sad about this, and in the middle of the night, he jumped into the water and escaped to Seventh Princess's place, and then brought Seventh Princess's people into the island through a small path, thus annihilating Tongjiao's gang.
Later, the seventh princess did not pursue her past crimes because of Tong Wuxin's meritorious service.But he didn't dare to let her go. Tongjiao's daughter must have a great appeal. Putting her back would be another pirate leader.So I handed it over to Duanmu Qi, and Tong Wuxin was only 16 years old at that time.After following Duanmu Qi for eight years, he was finally trained. Not only did he learn to read and write, he also made great progress in martial arts, and finally became a member of Duanmu Shishilang.
But even though the bad habits have changed, the next trouble is that it also followed. Tong Wuxin was already 22 years old at this time. After following Zhao Shenlong for a long time, she actually developed feelings. Zhao Shenlong confessed, but Zhao Shenlong practiced boy kung fu, and he didn't want to break his own boy kung fu, so he refused, and this matter became very entangled!The two have been hiding while the other is chasing, and it has been going on for two years.Otherwise, why didn't I see Zhao Shenlong at the beginning of today, he was hiding!
But now that Tong Wuxin appeared here, Zhao Shenlong couldn't escape.But I didn't expect that Tong Wuxin came to find Zhu Xiaobao!After Tong Wuxin came to Xiyuan City with the boat, Zhao Shenlong asked Zhao Shenbao to send the soap and toilet paper that Zhu Xiaobao gave him when he arrived in Xiyuan City just before parting. In fact, I still care about Tong Wuxin!
Tong Wuxin didn't expect this thing to be so easy to use. She sat in the bathtub and wiped the soap, loving it, but with this usage, there wasn't much left of this piece of soap. There was only a soap head left, and there wasn't much toilet paper left. Well, the toilet paper was stolen by Zhao Shenbao, so there were not many.This made Tong Wuxin unable to hold back, and found it by herself!
"I don't want you to give it to me for nothing, tell me your conditions!" Tong Wuxin glanced at the soap and toilet paper on the table, although she was very pleasantly surprised, but her face was still cold, she didn't want Zhu Xiaobao's for nothing thing.
"Conditions? Then if I don't have any conditions, don't you want the soap and toilet paper?" Zhu Xiaobao said in surprise, feeling that he didn't have any conditions. He wanted to take advantage of it, but how dare he say it out? , at first glance, the other party is a decisive person, sitting there makes people feel murderous!
"No! You must have conditions, any conditions are fine, or who do you want to kill? Or I can be your bodyguard for a day! Anyway, you say one condition!" Tong Wuxin shook his head and said persistently .
"Kill? No, no, no, no, I don't have any enemies, and I don't like to kill people! Well, but the bodyguards change a bar of soap every day? Isn't that too expensive? Is my soap so worthless?" Zhu Xiaobao shuddered in reality. , this girl is going to kill someone as soon as she speaks!Then he began to find it interesting again, so he said exaggeratedly.
"So I asked you to make a condition, why are you so wordy, just do it!" Tong Wuxin said a little annoyed, but she still couldn't help picking up the soap on the table, this time the soap sent by Zhu Xiaobao was the same The ones sent to the Seventh Princess are of the same quality.Of course they wanted the best for Boss Zhao!
"Okay then! Brother, the princess's shop will open the day after tomorrow. I want to invite you to go to town! How about it? The price is ten pieces of soap and ten dollars of toilet paper!" Zhu Xiaobao suddenly thought of a question, and really wanted Boss Zhao. If they came forward, I'm afraid the nineteenth princess might not be able to hold back.
"Oh? The princess's shop, do you still need us to go to town?" Boss Zhao asked a little puzzled.
"Hey! Didn't you already see it when you were in the imperial city? When the soap was taken out, it was so crazy. If the seventh princess hadn't been sitting in the town in person, the scene would have been quite chaotic!" Zhu Xiaobao thought of this question, seven As soon as the princess's shop opens, if King Ming's people rush to buy it, then who would dare to stop him, besides, there is also King Wen. Back then, the eyes of King Wen's concubine also had green eyes. But can their servants not come?Who dares to control them?Only the seventh princess has such a deterrent effect!
"Okay! That's it! I'll go!" Tong Wuxin made the decision before Boss Zhao agreed.At this time, she took the soap in her hand for granted!
"Then... let's do it!" Boss Zhao said helplessly, Tong Wuxin had already made up his mind, what else could he say, besides, there were rare things that Tong Wuxin liked, and whatever he said had to satisfy her request.
"Okay! Hey, sister, this is a deposit, five pieces of soap and five dollars of toilet paper. In addition, I think I have a destiny with my sister, and I also add a knife of napkins, which are specially for women!" Zhu Xiaobao was very happy and paid immediately Half the deposit!Also gave Tong Wuxin a knife napkin.
"Dish... Napkin? What is it for? Why is this kind of paper much smaller than that toilet paper?" Tong Wuxin asked a little puzzled, but when she touched it with her hands, she knew that this kind of napkin seemed to be softer and more comfortable.
"Well, Xiuxiu, go tell this sister!" Zhu Xiaobao turned his head and asked Ying Xiuxiu to explain to Tong Wuxin, so as not to be too embarrassed to say it!
Everyone watched Zhu Xiaobao show so many things like a magic trick, and now they all believed that these things were indeed made by Zhu Xiaobao, and Zhu Xiaobao was very generous!Here today, the things that are always out are probably worth tens of taels of gold. I feel that this guy is a rich man!
Recalling the crazy scene of buying soap in the imperial city back then, Zhao Laosan nodded: "I'm afraid we really need to come forward, I guess even the nineteenth princess can't hold back!"
"Okay! We don't want any reward this time, but give it to Eleven! How about it?" Boss Zhao also said happily, patting the table.
"Good!" Everyone shouted in unison.
"Hmph! You're hypocritical!" Tong Wuxin, who was having a great time with Ying Xiuxiu, turned her head at this moment, snorted disdainfully, and then gave the boss a hard look!Zhao Shenlong, a majestic great martial artist actually shrank his neck and dared not speak anymore!This made Zhu Xiaobao very admired, and also a little worried, would Wu Yue be so fierce in the future?
Chapter 83 Copper Centerless
Although Tong Wuxin got five bars of soap all at once, she did not leave. On the contrary, she chatted with Ying Xiuxiu and the other three very speculatively.The four whispered in low voices, and from time to time, they laughed like girls together, but they were more reserved and lowered their voices as much as possible.
Although Lu Tong also participated in it, she was very careful. Once there were not enough slices of meat on the slate, she would immediately spread fresh ones. After all, everyone had a great time eating.But she alone can't stand the speed of a dozen people.And the younger sisters Lu Fang and Ying Xiuxiu were so devoted to Tong Wuxin that they forgot to do things by themselves!
Because Tong Wuxin was sharing with them some experiences of wandering in the rivers and lakes, while Ying Xiuxiu was talking about what Zhu Xiaobao did after he came to the Nineteenth Princess Mansion. Listen to the legend of Zhu Xiaobao!
"Hey, hey, hey! Once you're done working, you'll know nonsense!" The three female guards said they were like gods, Zhu Xiaobao was a little embarrassed, and cleared his throat and shouted.
"No, no, I'll do it! That's enough! Wuxin is so happy!" Unexpectedly, Boss Zhao said hurriedly, and then he really started to help. The other nine people in the room were dumbfounded. Over the boss do these ah!
"Hmph!" Tong Wuxin gave Zhao Shenglong a blank look, then turned around and continued to whisper with Ying Xiuxiu and the others.
I have to say that stinky tofu and chicken feet with pickled peppers are more popular among girls. Tong Wuxin is so addictive that she can't stop eating them, especially the chicken feet with pickled peppers. Unexpectedly, a common chicken feet can be so delicious!Tong Wuxin couldn't stop eating so much that he felt a little embarrassed in the end!
But the fly in the ointment is that today's wine is very mediocre, after all Zhu Xiaobao can't bring the wine given by the Seventh Princess, and he doesn't have much on hand.What I drink now is just ordinary wine.
"Oh! It's a pity, this wine is far worse than the Seventh Princess' wine! Boss, don't you have some good wine?" Zhao Shenbao, the third child, said a little dissatisfied. The third child is helping to fry stinky tofu now. I am very addicted to this thing, eat a piece of stinky tofu with hot mouth, hot heart, numbness and chili aroma, and drink a sip of wine, it is like a fairy day!
"Oh! Look at my memory, if you don't tell me, I still forgot!" Tong Wuxin patted his forehead, and suddenly remembered that he still had a bag of good wine with him!
After speaking, he stood up, and flew out after a few dodges, Zhu Xiaobao was a little silly, this speed seemed to be faster than Zhao Shenbao!
"She is amphibious, so she is faster than me, and she is inferior to me in everything else!" Zhao Shenbao said a little dissatisfied when he saw Zhu Xiaobao looking at him.
"Hahahaha! You are only three hands stronger than her!" Zhao Shenhu, the second child, laughed haha.
"Hey! You want a lot of things I stole!" Zhao Shenbao shouted angrily.
Just as he was talking, Tong Wuxin had returned quickly, holding a skin bag in his hand, this kind of wine skin bag is usually used for long-distance travel, it is convenient to carry, can be hung on the side of the saddle, and the water capacity is relatively small Big.
"Try this! Let's be clear, several people died with this thing, and some people said it was poisonous!" Tong Wuxin said hesitantly.
"Ah? Then you bring it back?" Zhao Shenbao was taken aback and asked in amazement.
"Well, I drank it too, and nothing happened! But this stuff is very strong! After drinking this stuff, the wine you're drinking now will lose its taste!" Tong Wuxin said with a bit of aftertaste.
"Oh? Then I have to try it! Is there [-]% of the dead?" Zhao Shenhu was a little eager to try, but he still asked a little worried.
"How can it be that high, I can't say for sure!" Tong Wuxin was a little unclear.
"Come on, come on, if Wuxin says it's okay, then it's definitely okay!" Boss Zhao said boldly.
"That's right! Who is afraid of whom!" The others also shouted.
When everyone had poured a bowl, Zhu Xiaobao was taken aback for a moment, took a sip, and then frowned: This is baijiu, the alcohol content is already quite high, it should be around forty degrees.But this wine seems to be made very rough, the time is too short, a bit astringent.But it is certain that it has been distilled, otherwise it would not be able to reach such a high degree!
"Good wine! It's really strong!" Boss Zhao took a big sip and exclaimed in surprise. This is really strong wine, especially the spicy and dry feeling, which makes people feel very happy!
"Hey! It's really good wine! Wu Xin, where did you get it? Go get some more!" After taking a sip, the others immediately fell in love with this spicy, strong and strong feeling of wine!
"No more! These are the only few jars left, I can only hold this one bag." Wu Xin also shook her head regretfully and said.
"Hmm! This is white wine, which belongs to distilled wine, so the alcohol content is very high. The poisoning you mentioned should be alcohol poisoning, that is, drinking too much at once. It's not that the wine is poisonous!" Zhu Xiaobao It just felt normal, but he already knew why people died, probably because he rarely drank such strong wine and was greedy for a while!
"Do you know this kind of wine?" Wuxin asked in surprise, she didn't expect this little fat man to know this, but she still didn't believe it, because this kind of wine has been lost, and the person who brewed it has been killed up!
"Tell me, where did you get this? How much is a pot?" Zhu Xiaobao nodded and asked.
"Let's talk, there are no outsiders here. These three girls are now Xiaobao's people. They won't leak the secret!" Boss Zhao said intentionally or unintentionally. Will say these things in front of outsiders.But Zhu Xiaobao can be regarded as an outsider, and Mr. Duanmu is very fond of him, so Boss Zhao also consciously wants to have a deep friendship with Zhu Xiaobao.
"Hmm! I found it in the fief of His Highness the Sixth Prince!..." Tong Wuxin looked at Zhu Xiaobao, then at Ying Xiuxiu and the others, and then said slowly...
It turns out that Tong Wuxin took Duanmuqi's mission and sneaked into the fief of His Highness Xia Zesheng to spy on the military situation. His Highness was named King Sheng, and his fief was in the extremely cold place in the northernmost part. But there is snow all the year round and the population is very small.
But His Highness the Sixth Prince turned his fief into a base for his private army to station.Nobody knows exactly how many troops he has, but it is claimed to be 20.But those princes who are capable of winning the throne, including the seventh princess, don't believe it.So from time to time, people are sent to investigate.But it is still unknown how many troops he has, because Beidi County is too big, bigger than the fiefdoms of King Wen and King Ming combined!So His Highness the Sixth Prince divided the garrison into several places, and no one knew how many troops he had.
Tong Wuxin has been there a few times, and only found seventeen garrison bases, but this time she found this kind of wine in the northernmost town.The brewer was put to death!
The reason is that dozens of people died after drinking the wine he brewed.Moreover, this kind of wine is very expensive, and most people can't afford it at all, but he adopted the method of exchanging grain for wine, and started business with the local garrison.One hundred catties of grain is exchanged for one catty of this wine.
Soon this man made a fortune. He was originally a poor and rotten alcoholic. In half a year, he not only bought a mansion, married a wife and six concubines, but also bought hundreds of slaves.He also goes out to spend time and drink every day.
But this time it stumbled, and dozens of people were drunk to death all at once, and they were all local garrisons, and there were three generals. Of course, there is no excuse for this!Even His Royal Highness was startled.
Moreover, the matter of exchanging military rations for wine was also revealed. His Highness the Sixth Highness was very furious at that time. Most of the rations he transported to Beidi County every year were sent from the mainland by him!For this, he spends a lot of money every year. He didn't expect the return from Beidi County. The food is not enough every year, and the demand increases every year. It turns out that it was embezzled by corruption!How can this not be outraged?
So His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince personally rushed to Beidi County, killed the whole family of this man, and confiscated all his belongings.Of course, His Royal Highness also asked this person to tell the method of brewing this wine.Unexpectedly, this person was very smart, so he pretended to agree, and after the brewing process was demonstrated, His Highness Six immediately killed him!Of course, this kind of thing should be in your own hands.This is a huge business opportunity!
But what made the Sixth Highness depressed was that after killing this person, he brewed this wine according to his method, but it was never brewed again. Only then did he know that this person still hadn't handed over the real brewing method!
So when Tong Wuxin heard about this, he was very curious, took the risk and sneaked into the barracks, and stole a bag of the last jars of wine that had been sealed up.Because the others were confiscated by His Royal Highness the Sixth Highness, only these jars of wine were left in the barracks, and no one dared to drink them. Legend has it that they were poisoned wines!
"So that's the case? But this wine doesn't look like poisoned wine. Besides, it's been half a year since food was exchanged for wine. How could dozens of people die all of a sudden?" Zhao Shenbao asked inexplicably after hearing this.
"I guess he was too flamboyant, which caused his death! A poor drunk suddenly made such a huge windfall, do you think he will be jealous?" Boss Zhao nodded and said.
"Ah! It's a pity that such a good wine is lost like this?" Zhao Shenhu said even more regretfully, among these people, he is the best wine drinker, and he has a very large drinking capacity. Now this kind of wine is too much for her appetite.
"Why don't you drink? Is my wine not good?" Tong Wuxin asked a little dissatisfied when she saw Zhu Xiaobao took a sip and then didn't move.
