Chapter 17 Buying Alcohol
Li Er saw that his minister quickly admitted his mistake, and the anger in his heart dissipated a little.
Li Jing then came back to his senses and asked, "Your Majesty, what you just said is true. This alcohol can really be used to clean wounds and prevent wound infection."
"What?" Everyone reacted at this time and looked at Li Jing in surprise.
Cheng Yaojin asked loudly: "Old Li, please explain clearly, what is the use of this alcohol?"
Li Jing rolled his eyes at him and thought to himself: "Are you an idiot? Are you blind? You didn't see me asking His Majesty."
He said angrily: "I don't know either, you can ask His Majesty."
Cheng Yaojin looked at Li Er, and others also realized that His Majesty seemed to have said this just now, and everyone looked at Li Er with uncertain eyes.
Li Er sneered and said: "Li Jing is right, this alcohol has the effect of preventing wound infection.
This is what the wizard who gave me the alcohol said. In order to convince me that this alcohol has such effects, he gave me all three bottles of alcohol he had."
Smiles suddenly appeared on everyone's faces. If someone dedicated it to the emperor, the effect would not be bad.
They were only happy for a few dozen seconds when Li Er poured cold water on them.
"I didn't reveal my identity at the time, so I don't know whether what the other person said is true or not. You take these three bottles and then conduct intensive testing to see if they can really disinfect and sterilize as the other person said."
Cheng Yaojin said: "Your Majesty, you don't know the efficacy of co-writing it."
"I don't know. If you don't want it, just give it to someone else."
"Yes, I want it. Whether it's true or not, it's a hope, a hope to save the lives of the soldiers. Why don't I want it? But there are only three bottles, how to divide them?" Cheng Yaojin said quickly.
Li Er frowned and said: "When did I tell you that I wanted to divide them? These three bottles are for you to do experiments. You can find a way to verify whether this alcohol really has this effect."
"I understand," Cheng Yaojin said.
In an instant, everyone's eyes were shining brightly, staring at the three bottles of alcohol.
Li Jing asked: "Whose hand did this alcohol come from?"
Li Er smiled and said: "Li Feng. You should have heard that the young wizard who solved the food shortage currently lives in Li's Tavern in Pingkangfang. Or in Taiping Village in Wannian County."
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for informing me. I'll leave the three bottles of alcohol for them. I don't need them for the time being." Li Jing simply stopped participating.
Cheng Yaojin rolled his eyes and said: "Wei Chen will not participate anymore.", h
Niu Jinda also said: "Weichen will not participate anymore, leave it to Jingde and them. It is not good for too many people to participate."
Li Er looked at them, with a smile on his lips, and said: "I know what you are going to do, but you are not allowed to reveal my identity. Whoever dares to reveal it, I guarantee that you will not use alcohol."
"I don't dare." This group of killers who are not afraid of heaven or earth were really threatened by Li Er this time.
"Yes." Li Er nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, if you have anything else to do, just leave."
"Your Majesty, I have a suggestion." Chai Shao stood up and said.
"explain."
Chai Shao continued: "Since alcohol is used to disinfect and prevent wound infections, we might as well treat the infected people in Chang'an. At the same time, we can conduct experiments on the prisoners detained in Dali Temple in exchange for their early freedom."
Li Er nodded and said: "This method is feasible, and I will leave this matter to you. I hope to see the results as soon as possible."
"yes."
In this way, the matter of testing alcohol was handed over to Chai Shao, and everyone else took Li Feng to heart.
After they left, Li Er remembered that he could not drink this alcohol, otherwise he might die of alcohol poisoning.
He quickly sent the eunuch to tell Chai Shao and the others. Fortunately, Li Er remembered early and the eunuch was quick enough to stop Cheng Yaojin when he was about to drink the alcohol.
It turned out that Cheng Yaojin was trying hard on Chai Shao and asked him to open a bottle of alcohol. The smell of the wine instantly made Cheng Yaojin pick up the bottle and start drinking. At this time, the eunuch appeared and stopped him. This was also the reason why Cheng Yaojin was lucky.
After Li Er learned about this, he was frightened for a while. If Cheng Yaojin drank alcohol, he would lose a general and a good brother.
At the same time, they sent someone to give Cheng Yaojin and Chai Shao a hard lesson, scolding Cheng Yaojin for not being a good person, and robbing alcohol even though he clearly didn't want to participate. If there was another incident, they would be punished without mercy.
There is also Chai Shao. If you give something as valuable as alcohol to others at will, this is called guarding and stealing. You will be punished with a salary of three months to set an example.
The two people who were punished and scolded felt baffled, especially Cheng Yaojin, who thought it was because Li Er was stingy and refused to give him a drink like alcohol.
The more he was refused to drink, the more he thought about it, so he united with several people who wanted to drink alcohol to find Li Feng.
Li Feng didn't know it at this time, but he had become the target of the military bosses. As long as Chai Shao confirmed the effect of alcohol, these bosses would come to him.
When he returned to his tavern, Forbes began to ask questions and appeared very worried.
Li Feng told him there was no need to worry, and then told Uncle Forbes about the renovation of the Taiping Village mansion and turned it into a brewery.
When Uncle Fu heard about the brewing workshop, he became very steady and kept in mind several points raised by Li Feng.
The next day, Uncle Fu spent money to ask the villagers of Taiping Village to rectify the mansion.
The main purpose was to expand the yard, build a greenhouse in the yard, and build an underground wine cellar. To this end, he also spent money to buy a few rooms, and planned to demolish and rebuild them to serve as a residence for Li Feng, and also build an underground wine cellar.
.
Li Feng heard about Fu Bo's plan and readily agreed. At the same time, he designed the drawings himself and left the construction issues to Fu Bo.
If he is not a professional, he will not participate. Just follow his drawings.
After Uncle Fu left the tavern, Li Feng was the only one left in the tavern. He sold wine and made alcohol every day, and lived a quite fulfilling life.
On this day, three people appeared outside the store. They were Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde and Niu Jinda.
"I didn't expect that such a small tavern could brew such delicious wine as alcohol." Cheng Yaojin looked at the simple tavern with some surprise.
Niu Jinda said: "Don't you know this? Even though it is small, it has all the internal organs."
Yuchi Gong said in a deep voice: "What are you doing with all this nonsense? Come in quickly, I'm a drunkard."
"walk into."
"Go in."
The three of them walked into the store.
At this time, Li Feng was chasing flies away. The day was getting hotter and hotter. Fortunately, food was available, otherwise many people would have died from this drought.
"I didn't expect that not long after arriving in this beautiful Tang Dynasty, I would encounter such crazy weather. I really want to eat popsicles and cold beer. It's best to have a barbecue. It's perfect." Li Feng, who fantasized about the past days, had no idea at all.
I noticed three distinguished customers coming into the store.
Cheng Yaojin saw Li Feng in a daze and shouted loudly: "Hey, you dazed boy, is your name Li Feng?"
Li Feng came back to his senses, looked at the three tall, rough and mighty men, frowned and said: "You three guests, do you have anything to do with Li Feng?"
"Aren't you Li Feng?" Cheng Yaojin asked, "Then why should I tell you so much?"
"You don't want to say anything. Okay, I'm going to do business. I welcome you to buy wine." Li Feng said lightly.
Cheng Yaojin smiled and said: "Hey, the little guy still has a temper."
Li Feng: "..."
Yuchi said respectfully: "Little guy, ignore this old bastard. Please call Li Feng. We have important matters to discuss with him."
Li Feng said: "You have a good attitude. Tell me what you want to do with Li Feng. I can make the decision for him."
"I want to buy alcohol, can you make the decision?" Yu Chigong said.
"kindness."
"Huh? What do you mean, you can make the decision or not." Cheng Yaojin said unhappily. If this was his son, he would have slapped him long ago.
Li Feng said: "Well, I can, I can decide whether to sell alcohol to you or not."
"Huh, young man, aren't you afraid of using your tongue when you speak?"
"Believe it or not, but before I sell you alcohol, you have to tell me first, who are you? Why do you know I have alcohol here?" Li Feng asked suspiciously.
"Hahaha, of course we have our own channels to know, please take out the alcohol quickly." Cheng Yaojin laughed.
Niu Jinda smiled and said: "Little brother, you can't guess the identities of the three of us. You'd better take out the alcohol obediently."
"Can."
Li Feng turned around and went into the inner hall, and soon he brought out three bottles of alcohol.
"This is all we can survive now. If you want extra, you can sign a long-term contract with me, and I will sell you the alcohol as soon as possible."
Cheng Yaojin didn't answer, he grabbed the alcohol and wanted to drink it.
Li Feng was startled and quickly threw a bottle of alcohol in his hand, directly hitting the bottle in Cheng Yaojin's hand.
"Clang."
The two bottles shattered at the same time, and the alcohol spilled on the ground. Even Cheng Yaojin had a lot of alcohol on his body.
Cheng Yaojin was furious, grabbed Li Feng's collar with both hands, and said angrily: "You brat, what are you doing?"
Li Feng did his part and responded loudly: "What are you doing again?"
When the two of them were at war with each other, Yu Chigong and Niu Jinda immediately persuaded them.
"Lao Cheng, don't be impulsive, he is still a child." Niu Jinda said.
Yuchi Gong also said: "Yaojin, how old are you, why are you still meeting a child? Let it go, let it go."
"Yes, yes, don't be like a child, let it go, let it go quickly."
Cheng Yaojin did not let go, and said solemnly: "If he wants me to let go, he has to apologize."
At this time, Li Feng was already sure that these three people were from the military. The person in front of him was Cheng Yaojin, so the two next to him must be Yu Chigong and a group of military generals.
Now he was not afraid at all. The corner of his mouth raised and he said: "So you are the devil incarnation Cheng Yaojin. No wonder you don't even want to die just to drink alcohol. I admire you."
Cheng Yaojin suddenly remembered something, let go of his hand, and asked with twinkling eyes: "Is this alcohol really not drinkable?"
