Chapter 79: The National Wind and the Rat (1)

Chapter 79: National Style Rat (I)

What chaos happened in Pei County...

At least for the more than ten days after Liu Kan returned home, everything seemed very calm. Sishui Huadiao continued to sell hot sales, and Chen Yu and Guan Que had a higher demand for residual wine. In particular, Guan Que, from the beginning, it had increased to 6,000 urns, which doubled. Chen Yu's business seemed not as good as Guan Que, but the demand was also continuing to grow.

This involves the issue of differences between the north and the south.

So I had to slowly unfold, and I was anxious. Liu Kan didn't care much about this, what he cared about was Chen Ping's news.

The person responsible for picking up the goods has always been Chen Yi.

After Liu Kan came back, Chen Yi came again. According to him, Chen Ping is now studying in Ji downstairs and is not very accurate in his whereabouts. Judging from Chen Yi's tone, Chen Ping didn't seem to like business matters very much. Chen Yu did not force him, so he let him go.

Anyway, Chen Yu is not too struggling with the help of Chen Yi in business.

But for Liu Kan, he couldn't help feeling a little disappointed. Although it was not certain whether Chen Ping was the other Chen Ping, it was better to meet him than to miss him. Fortunately, he has already made the line from Chen Yu now, and if he is really alone, he is not afraid.

The fifty Qin troops did not leave immediately.

After Liu Kan visited Li Fang, she went to visit Zhou Lan that day.

Zhou Lan was a kind young man, at the age of 27 or 28, so he was from Anyi, Wei. When Qin destroyed the Wei State, Zhou Lan had just joined the Wei army. He even failed to truly go to the battlefield and became a prisoner. He then became a light soldier of the old Qin, killing generals and killing enemies, and made great contributions.

Light soldiers can be explained by later words such as suicide squads and cannon fodder.

Most of them were prisoners of war or prisoners, and they were not qualified to be armour, and even weapons were temporarily distributed. When fighting, they rushed to the front. They could turn from a light soldier to a regular army commander. Zhou Lan could not calculate how many times he had experienced life and death. But he finally survived... Although his military position was not high, he was still the leader of fifty people. Compared with those light soldiers who died in battle, Zhou Lan was very satisfied.

"According to the order of the county magistrate, we will not return to the team for the time being."

When Liu Kan asked Zhou Lan about his return date, Zhou Lan replied: "In a few more days, it is time to send Wansui wine to Xianyang. The county magistrate meant that we should wait here, and once the Wansui wine is out of the cellar, we will immediately send it to Xiang County without delay.

Liu Sheng, don’t care about us!

The county magistrate has arranged enough supplies for us. I just hope you can leave the cellar with Long Live wine on time, otherwise everyone will be in trouble."

Liu Kan was ecstatic...

There are about three months left before the day of offering long live wine.

In other words, these fifty Qin soldiers will stay here for three months. During these three months, those who are eyeing Sishui Huacao will probably not act rashly. In other words, Liu Kan has three months to prepare.

Enough!

In the following days, Liu Kan began a tense and busy work.

To outsiders, he is preparing for the Long Live Wine. But in fact, he no longer needs to worry about the Long Live Wine.

All day long, he stayed in the wine cellar with Shen Shiqi, tinkering with the pot and burning utensils that had been transported from Song Zi.

All my attention was focused on the development of soju. During this period, Mrs. Lu came several times, but he failed to see Liu Kan.

There is no way, busy!

Liu Ju's injuries gradually improved, but he was like a child, pestering Mrs. Kan all day long.

Giant child? This is what Guan Ying calls Liu Ju. What he is interested in is practicing martial arts with Wang Xin. Occasionally, he takes Cheng Miao to drink with him, and Cao Wushang occasionally comes to join in the fun. The group of people are getting more and more familiar with each other.

Kuai Che and Tang Li had a relatively talk.

To be precise, Tang Li's grandfather Tang Sui was also a strategist. Although Tang Li's generation was more inclined to military skills, the blood of strategist in his bones was still indelible. He often argued with Kuai Che, either blushing or smiling at each other, and enjoyed it. Wang Ji, while doing housework while taking care of the workshop, was very steward.

On this day, Tang Li started arguing with Kuai Che as usual!

Mrs. Kan was basking in the sun in the hall, sewing Liu Kan and Liu Ju's clothes, and watching Liu Ju and Wang Xin play with a smile.

A giant, a fool...

Wang Xin hugged Liu Ju's thigh and vowed to overturn him. Liu Ju used one arm to make Wang Xin return every time.

Wang Ji sat with Mrs. Kan.

"Wang Ji, have you noticed that Ju Hexin looks like a father and son?"

Mrs. Kan's sudden words made Wang Ji's face flush. She lowered her head and didn't say anything, but glanced at the two guys playing with the corner of her eyes. Her heart was pounding, and her cheeks seemed to be burning.

"Old lady, brother Akan is almost eighteen this year."

Mrs. Kan nodded, "Yes, in a few days, I will be eighteen years old."

"At the age of eighteen, it's time to find a family in-laws!" Wang Ji quietly changed the topic and said with a smile: "I wonder if the old lady has any plans? Or which daughter he likes? This ordinary family's kid is not worthy of my brother."

Mrs. Kan sighed.

"It's not easy for Kan now. Look at him. Since he got back, he has been unable to calm down all day. To be honest, I have a good candidate. The second lady of the Lu family and Kan are childhood sweethearts, but the previous few misunderstandings are very troublesome... Wang Ji, what's wrong with Ah Kan? Ah Geng actually likes him very much, why didn't he react at all?"

Almost everyone can see how Mr. Lu thought about Liu Kan.

The Lu family has now gained a firm foothold in Pei County, and the most difficult period has passed.

On the one hand, the marriage with Liu Bang forced some people in Pei County to be cautious; on the other hand, the appearance of Liu Kan did share part of the pressure of the Lu family. However, anyone with a discerning eye can see that although the Lu family has gained a firm foothold, it is probably very difficult to get to another level. Unless the Lu family can find another way of wealth, it will be difficult to become a climate.

Wang Ji said: "Why would you like to ask Chief Cao Ting to come forward and talk about it?"

"Chief Cao?"

"Yes, Chief Cao Ting is also an old man from Pei County. If he comes forward to say something, there may be a way to go."

Mrs. Kan put down the needle and thread, hesitated for a moment and said, "For this matter, let's ask A Kan what she means. He has grown up now and has his own ideas. Then he will hear what he says. If he wants, it will not be too late to ask Mr. Cao to come forward."

At this moment, Liu Ju, who was playing with Wang Xin in the courtyard, suddenly stopped moving.

He looked up at the sky, his nose twitched twice, and said in a muffled voice: "Mom, what does it taste like? Why is it so weird?"

After he said this, the others also let go of what they were doing.

Guan Ying also stood up and sniffed twice, "Yes, it smells strange... It seems to be wine? But it seems not."

Wang Ji's eyes lit up, "Can brothers Akan and others have successfully worked on it?"

Tang Licao stood up without hesitation, and ran towards the wine cellar without saying a word.

The smell was mellow and intense, intoxicating. It became more and more intense, and it became more and more intense... It came from the wine cellar, which was fascinating.

Cao Wushang pushed open the door of the wine cellar without saying a word.

The smell of wine made his head dizzy. He quickly held his breath and took a step back. Then he looked inside and saw Liu Kan and Shen Shiqi both lying on the ground. A stream of water mist was steaming in the pot, and the rich aroma of wine was emitting.

"A Kan, A Qi..."

Cao Wushang and Tang Li rushed in, trying to carry Liu Kan and the others out.

But Liu Kan's body was too heavy... it was nine feet tall and weighed more than 260 pounds. Cao Wushang could carry Shen Shiqi, but Tang Li couldn't lift Liu Kan. His little face turned red and he couldn't move Liu Kan in half.

"Ju, go in and move your brother out!"

Seeing Tang Li's difficulty, Mrs. Kan couldn't help but say to Liu Ju who was following her.

Without saying a word, Liu Ju rushed into the wine cellar and threw Liu Kan on his body. He turned his head and looked at Tang Li, clamped his arm and pulled Tang Li out.

"Mom, the smell inside is so bad!"

Mrs. Kan and others surrounded her and quickly checked Liu Kan and Shen Shiqi's situation. After a while, Wang Ji couldn't help laughing and said, "No need to watch it. Brother Kan and Aqi are fine. I guess they were drunk by the smell of the wine... Tang Li, what are you doing? I've been making wine so much? I've never smelled such a wine after so many years."

Guan Ying whispered, "It's Yanjiu!"

After saying that, he looked at Tang Li and Cao Wushang and said, "Old Tang, what are you doing? I have tasted the taste of Yanjiu, it is very difficult. People who are not in the bitter and cold place will not be able to get used to this smell. What are you and A Kan? "

Cao Wu was so worried, "A Kan said, I want to give us a wealth!"

"Rich?"

Everyone looked at the drowsy Liu Kan and Shen Shiqi in surprise, but their eyes were filled with confusion...

Liu Kan and Shen Shiqi woke up in the evening.

As soon as they woke up, the two rushed to the wine cellar again, and didn't even have time to explain to everyone. This time, Tang Li and Cao Wushang followed. The smell in the wine cellar had dissipated. Shen Shiqi and Liu Kan were busy inside for a long time, and then Shen Shiqi walked out with a wine bottle and greeted everyone with a smile: "Come on, try this new Yan wine."

Cao Wushang brought a few pottery bowls, grabbed the wine jar, and drank the wine like water from it.

The color is still a bit muddy, but it is obviously a considerable improvement compared to the Yan wine that Liu Kan tasted in Songzi Restaurant.

Guan Ying took a sip, then grinned and shouted, "So spicy, this wine is so spicy."

Liu Kan, who was standing at the door of the wine cellar, showed a bright smile at this time.

This wine is definitely not as good as Maotai and Wuliangye in later generations. But the reason why he brewed this kind of soju wine was not just for drinking. He scooped out a spoonful of wine from the wine jar and poured it into the bowl. Then he asked someone to take a candle and sweep it over the wine. In a flash, the wine in the bowl burned, a layer of blue flames, which was particularly strange.

He Shen Jiqi looked at each other and laughed!

After all, the hard work of this month has not been in vain!
Chapter completed!
