Chapter 54 Song Ziyan Man

Baiyue is a wilderness!

At least in the eyes of many people, this is what it is... For the old Qin people who grew up in the northwest, Baiyue is just a concept. What does it look like? Many people can't say it. They only know that there is a group of uncivilized barbarians there.

The First Emperor would definitely send someone to investigate.

But this does not mean that his generals, including Tu Sui, would really care about this matter.

All the six countries have been wiped out. What can a mere Baiyue be like? Perhaps most Qin generals think so.

Of course, even if the First Emperor attaches importance to this problem and knows the complexity of Baiyue, some things still cannot be solved.

After the bloody battle in Daze, Liu Kan proposed a set of first aid methods.

But the most important factor here is the disinfection method. Liu Kan's method is very simple, extracting high-concentration soju. On the one hand, it can be used for disinfection, and on the other hand, if it is accompanied by medicine, it may solve the problem of local miasma.

“Sauce?”

This is the first time Ren Xiao has heard of such a noun.

Soju refers to various transparent and colorless distilled liquors, also known as white wine. In the history of China, when did the origin of soju? There are many different opinions. However, it is said that it first came from the Tang Dynasty, and it is difficult to make a correct judgment as to authenticity.

"Is this thing you said really useful?"

Ren Xiao was skeptical, but he was a little moved in his heart.

Liu Kan shrugged, "I don't know, it should be useful in theory, but I have tried it several times but failed."

"Then tell me in detail, maybe I can give you some ideas."

Liu Kan thought about it, so he explained the principle of soju distillation that he understood. Of course, he was not in this background, so he could only give a brief introduction. Specifically, the combination of herbs and soju is mainly aimed at malaria.

Ren Xiao listened to Liu Kan's story very carefully, patted his forehead gently, pondering without saying a word.

Liu Kan didn't dare to disturb her, so she sat next to her and waited quietly.

"The thing you said... Oh, it's called shojiu, right... This is the first time I heard of it. However, from the taste you mentioned, it seems to be a little impressed. It seems to be four years ago? When I was conquering Julu with General Wang Ben, I tasted such wine in a restaurant in Songzicheng (north of Zhaoxian County, Hebei Province). I only took a sip, but the impression was quite deep.

The wine is a bit turbid, not what you said is colorless and transparent, but the taste is quite similar...

I also asked the owner of the restaurant, who would like to taste such a hard drink. The owner of the restaurant said that the wine was placed by a Yan Man. Some people were willing to drink it, but most of them were from the north and liked that taste."

The north of Ren Xiao’s mouth mostly refers to the Huns north of the Great Wall of Yanzhao.

Liu Kan's eyes lit up, "Can you introduce it to the common people? If this wine is brewed, it will definitely save many lives."

Ren Xiao smiled and nodded, "Songzi County Magistrate Xu Gong and I have some friendship. Liu Kan, since you are determined to do this, I can certainly introduce you. If you succeed, your military achievements will be indispensable; but if you fail...hehe."

"If you fail, the common people should bear it with all their strength."

Ren Xiao then went back to the room to take out a token, then wrote a wooden slip and handed it over to Liu Kan.

"This is the Iron Eagle Order I held back then. With this wooden slip, Mr. Xu will definitely cooperate with you. Well, when will you set off?"

Liu Kan thought for a while, "Of course, the faster the better... But Shen Shiqi, Tang Li and the others did not come back, they were at home..."

Of course, Ren Xiao knew what Liu Kan was worried about, so he smiled, "Just rest assured about your family's affairs, I will arrange for someone to take care of you. Well, this matter is very important. If you complete it one day, you can guarantee the lives of my soldiers in the South End. You should set off quickly."

Liu Kan immediately agreed, "That villain will make arrangements when he goes home. At most, he will set off in four or five days."

"Very good!"

Ren Xiao told Liu Kan some details that need to be paid attention to. After all, Song Zicheng is the territory of Zhao, and the situation is different from that of Pei County.

By the time Liu Kan said goodbye, it was already dark.

Ren Xiao made an exception and ordered his family to arrange a car to take Liu Kan home.

Standing at the door of the official office and watching the car go away, an old man next to Ren Xiao couldn't help but step forward and say, "Sir, Liu Kan is brave, quick and wise, and has many wonderful ideas. He will definitely become his right-hand man in the future. Why not take him to Xiangxian?"

Ren Xiao shook his head and smiled bitterly, and sighed softly.

"Don't I want to?" He was silent for a moment, "I was just worried that my place was small, but I couldn't tolerate him... He was too young after all. According to the law, an official should be at least twenty years old. Even if he took him to Xiangxian County, what could he do?

Lord Neishi once wanted him to serve in the army.

However, years have passed, and Lord Meng has not mentioned this again, so he must have forgotten it. For me, I don’t want him to join the army... Haha, this is selfishness.

Let him continue to stay in Pei County, I will order people to pay attention to it secretly.

If he is really useful, I would like to recommend it to Your Majesty; but if it is too heavy to use it, then forget it."

When Liu Kan returned home, it was almost time for Xu.

Wang Ji was looking at the gate of the yard anxiously. When she saw Liu Kan get out of the car, she hurriedly walked forward, "Brother A Kan, Yang Wu and Chen Yu sent someone to come, and she has been waiting for a long time."

Liu Kan's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and he quickly dressed and said, "Take me there."

Is Chen Ping here?

Liu Kan was a little excited! Earlier, when he saw Xiao He, Liu Bang, and Lu Zhi, he was just moved. At that time, he had no idea, just thinking about how to settle down in Pei County and take advantage of the troubled waters in the future.

But now, after carrying an old Qin man's imprint on his body, his idea is a bit different.

Moreover, the person waiting for him in the house was Chen Ping, a very impressive person. Liu Kan felt a little excited.

A powerful young man in his 24th and 5th year of age was sitting in the hall.

As soon as Liu Kan entered the room, he said, "I have been working hard for a long time, and I have lost my respect!"

But when you look closely, it seems that it is a bit different from Chen Ping's image in my mind. Is it really Chen Ping the big one?

The young man stood up and bowed, "Chen Yi, my cousin asked me to bring a hundred taels of gold in front of me and carry the remaining wine."

"Chen Yi?"

Liu Kanqi said: "Aren't you Chen Ping?"

The young man smiled foolishly, "Chen Ping is my cousin. Before my cousin returned to Yangwu, he set out to study in Jimo. My cousin had no choice but to order me to come on behalf of Brother Ping. Here are my cousin's letters and a hundred taels of gold."

As he spoke, he took out a wooden slip from his arms, then picked up a package from the side of the desk and placed it on the table with a slam.

Liu Kan felt more or less disappointed in her heart.

It turned out that it wasn't Chen Ping... It's a pity, it's a pity! But although I thought so in my heart, my face was not revealed. I didn't look at the package, but just took the wooden slip and glanced at it, "Brother Chen, don't worry, the remaining wine is ready and can be transported away at any time. It's already late, so why not leave and rest for one night, and let's talk about it tomorrow, how about it?"

Chen Yi smiled, "My cousin said, I want me to obey Liu Sheng's instructions!"

Liu Kan immediately asked Wang Ji to arrange a residence for Chen Yi.

Fortunately, two houses were built in one of them, one of which had three wing rooms, which was just right for resettlement.

After picking up the hundred taels of gold, Liu Kan went straight to the inner hall. After handing the gold to his mother, he told Mrs. Kan about what happened in the county government.

"You mean, your father is from Qin?"

It is obvious that Liu Kan's father did not tell Mrs. Kan about his origin, so Mrs. Kan was very surprised after hearing this.

"The county magistrate said that he had sent someone to investigate, saying that his ancestors left Guanzhong because they evaded the law. My father's ancestral home should be in Dongxiang, Pinyang... However, the emperor has pardoned the crimes of that year, but the county magistrate did not make it clear for the specifics."

Mrs. Kan was very open-minded. After thinking about it, she smiled and said, "The Qin people are just Qin people. In fact, who in the world is not Qin people? This person always has to face reality... Some people just refuse to admit it, but what's the use?

But why did you suddenly go to Julu?

That place is very far away. You are so young and you are away alone, so I feel a little worried."

Yes, even if Liu Kan looks so burly and sturdy, in fact, she is just over 16 years old.

Mrs. Kan said: "Mom wants to make a marriage for you while there is not much work... It seems that it is not possible."

"Marriage?"

"Yes, you are already sixteen. As long as you grow up, you should start a family and start a career!"

Liu Kan was dizzy when she heard this...I wanted me to get married at the age of sixteen? This is really a typical early marriage. But think about it, this custom is like this, so it is no wonder.

"Kan, when will you leave?"

Liu Kan thought for a while, "It's only one or two days. This matter is very urgent and cannot be delayed... Well, after I handle some things tomorrow, I want to leave the day after tomorrow. However, the Guan family has not replied to me yet, but I am a little worried."

Mrs. Kan was silent for a moment, "You just do things, don't worry about the family affairs. Mother and Wang Ji are enough to handle business matters. Leave the business matters to Lao Zhou... As for the others, shouldn't Shen Shiqi, Tang Li and the others come back?

However, if you go alone, my mother is still not relieved.

Let’s do this, I see that Mr. Cheng is quite a steady person. He is old and has experience. Let him go with you."

Mr. Cheng is Cheng Miao.
