Jia Tulu is very particular about how he handles things. Regardless of whether the brothers in tiger clothes work for him or not, each person will pay one hundred thousand yuan to the card first, and then don’t mention anything else, just drink and eat meat first.
A banquet has been prepared on the mountain.
Since Jia Tulu is still in the entrepreneurial stage and the Xiaozhai base is not perfect in all aspects, the dining venue is very simple.
Just choose an open space, use bamboo to make it look like a dining table, and put a wooden board on top.
There are long benches on both sides.
There were four rows in total, with thirty tables in each row. The newly arrived Tiger-clad Tengpai soldiers, the original Sauron soldiers, and other related personnel were all seated.
When everyone was seated, Jia Liu stopped talking and asked someone to pour wine for the brothers.
The wine was from the old cellar that President Li had brought from Luzhou. As soon as the jar was opened, the aroma of the wine overflowed. Not far away, a bear playing alone ran over with a squealing sound.
As a fourth-rank forward guard in the Qing Dynasty, Goudan had the right to drink, so Jia Liu asked Shuan Zhu to bring a jar to him.
Originally, they were going to start eating directly, but Xindasu and the others insisted on asking Jatulu to say a few words.
"How about a few words?"
Jaturu laughed, stood on the table in front of him, waved his hand, and said to the tiger-clad soldiers: "You new masters insist on me saying a few words. I say I won't say it, but he won't let me say it. But I have to say it."
What? You can't say those official polite words to your brothers. I don't even bother to say those things to fool the superiors!"
"If you want to talk, just tell the truth. Everyone here counts as one, and they will all be brothers of Shikai from now on! Shikai will not say anything unnecessary. Everyone eats well and drinks well. Shikai would like to give a bowl to the brothers first!
"
After saying that, regardless of his poor drinking capacity, he drank a bowl of wine that was more than five taels.
Suddenly, there was a burst of cheers.
"Come, brothers, eat food and drink wine!"
Madri and Anbu, as Mr. Jia's confidants to Sauron, naturally understood Mr. Jia's intentions in making such arrangements, so they led a group of subordinates to take on the important task of activating the atmosphere.
Basically all of Sauron's soldiers, including those in the flag bearer training camp, were transferred here in order to create a family-friendly atmosphere in Sauron.
The wine keeps drinking and the jar keeps opening.
Everyone was in an atmosphere, and so was Jatulu. He held Xindasu's hand and his eyes turned red, crying: "It's me who's hurt you, it's me who's hurt you."
"Sir, if you say this again, I'll just jump off this mountain!"
Xindasu, who was drunk, uttered the truth after drinking, and couldn't stop the tears from flowing: "Your Excellency treats us guys from outside the customs so well, and I can't repay you with my humble position. From now on, I am willing to be your eagle and dog, and do your best for you!"
"Yes, be Master Jia's eagle dog!"
All the soldiers in tiger uniforms raised their wine bowls staggeringly one by one and rushed to drink. It seemed that not doing so could not express the sincerity in their hearts at this time.
"You are not my eagle dog, you are the court's eagle dog... Hiccup, you are the court's eagle dog..."
Although Jia Liu had drunk too much, his consciousness was still a little clear, and he hurriedly corrected the inappropriate remarks of the Sauron soldiers.
"What is the imperial court? The imperial court... does the imperial court treat us as... do we think we are human beings?...According to the humble position, the adults are the imperial court, and the imperial court is the adults!"
Xindasu drank the wine in one sip and said this from the bottom of his heart.
"Good brother, good brother..."
Jia Liu's tongue was obviously enlarged and he could no longer speak fluently, but he still had to carry a bowl and walk with two soldiers in tiger clothes.
Seeing this, Madri quickly stepped forward and told the tiger-clad soldiers that there were too many people in Jia, and he was afraid that he could not drink anymore.
"Nonsense! When I drink with those officials, I drink as little as I can, and I don't drink if I can. But if I drink with my brothers, I will drink to death!"
Jia Liu took a bowl and said, "Brothers, we will do it for the sake of the Qing Dynasty!"
"Gudu Gudu", half the bowl of wine flowed down the corner of his mouth and into his neck.
"For the sake of the Qing Dynasty, I will do it!"
None of Sauron's soldiers had ever seen such a great man. Not to mention drunken to death, he would not look back even if he was facing mountains of swords and seas of fire.
Jiatulu, who was too drunk, was carried back by Er Yang, but the banquet continued.
There are laughter and laughter, and there are heroic words.
At the end, there was a lot of crying.
The soldiers in tiger uniforms were crying, and Madrid and the others were crying with them.
Every word you say to me reflects the suffering of Sauron people over the years.
Hua Gou Xiong was already drunk. He lay down under a table and fell asleep soundly, with drool flowing uncontrollably from the corner of his mouth.
........
Jia Liu slept until noon the next day. When he woke up, something strange happened and he had no headache.
Luzhou Laojiao is really good.
After washing, I asked about the arrangements for the Tiger Uniform Soldiers in Madrid. After receiving a satisfactory answer, I went down the mountain to the training camp.
The leading minister's office was large, but the furnishings were simple. Next to a large table specially requested by Jaturu, there was an empty bookshelf.
There is a picture hanging behind the office, which is the four characters "Unparalleled Loyalty and Courage" bestowed upon Jatulu by the current emperor in his handwriting.
This was also the first time that Jia Liu came to his office. After sitting down and feeling the taste of the principal, he began to settle accounts.
Yesterday I was very generous, but I spent more than 30,000 taels at a time, and what I got was still the salary for the flag bearers and the daily expenses of the training camp. This hole must be filled up in some way.
Even though he was a third-grade adult, Jia Liu was too shameless to deduct military pay.
The family still has some financial resources. Fu Sheng'a's personal money was taken from Chengdu, Chongzhou, and the capital, which amounted to more than 500,000 taels. In addition, he also had 100,000 taels from the Xiaozhai project, and other legal income, which could barely sustain him.
Most of half a year.
More than half a year later, without new financial resources, it would be difficult for Jia Liu to maintain the development of the association.
Although Jinchuan is a gold mine, all military-related engineering projects, large and small, have been contracted by others, leaving no room for Jatulu to intervene.
Therefore, we must find ways to open source.
The purpose of calling Liu De here has nothing to do with making money, but to train new troops.
The most important thing in training the new army is the upgrading of weapons. Jia Liu didn't know how far Western muskets had developed at this time, or whether breech-loading guns would appear, so he had to find someone to go to Macau to conduct on-site investigation.
If so, purchase a batch first and then invite some technicians to Xiaozhai to imitate them.
With money, people, good weapons, and a good organization, Jia Liu believed that the Eight Banners, whether it was Manchuria, Mongolia, or the Han army, would all reach a consensus - to drive Qianlong out of the Eight Banners!
The Tiandi Society originated in Fujian, and its main areas of activity are Fujian and Guangdong. The members often go to sea, and they must have contact with foreigners. This matter should not be difficult to handle.
Sure enough, Liu De agreed and said the matter would be taken care of by him.
Jia Liu nodded and began to give Liu De money to do things.
"Ten thousand taels is about right, right?"
Jia Liu originally wanted to give him 20,000 taels to do this, but considering that this was his first contact with foreigners, he decided to buy less first and make sure the effect was good before purchasing in bulk, so in the end he gave Liu De two taels of 5,000 yuan.
Two banknotes.
After Liu De accepted the banknote, he hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stepped forward, bent down and lowered his voice: "Have you ever considered joining the Heaven and Earth Society?"
Nani?
Jia Liuyi was stunned.
"If you are willing to join the association based on your conditions, there will be absolutely no problem in becoming a master."
Liu De looked directly at Jia Jiashikai with blazing eyes. He had been inspecting this kid for a long time.
