Settled in the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 465 Settlement
"I haven't asked for advice yet, who is this?"

After sending Jiang Lin away, Pei Yunzhao looked at Su Han and asked Xue Lang.Xue Lang said: "I haven't introduced it to the envoy yet. This is my good friend Su Han Su Hengyu, a medical officer of the Imperial Medical Office. He has excellent medical skills. My princess has troubled him to take care of me on the way. When I settle down, he will ask you to take care of me." Go back to Chang'an."

Pei Yunzhao said: "So it's Doctor Su, Pei is very polite!"

Su Han replied: "Your envoy is polite, Su came here uninvited, please trouble your envoy."

After greeting each other, Pei Yunzhao invited people into the governor's mansion, and sat down in the living room of the governor's mansion.Xue Lang said: "Since the envoy is the grandson of Mr. Pei, although you and I have met for the first time, we are not outsiders, so Xue can tell you the truth. I don't know what labor the envoy wants to arrange for Xue Lang? Where does he live?"

Xue Lang was very calm. Although he didn't take away his title and honor, but being exiled is exile, so it's better to ask him himself.

Seeing this, Pei Yunzhao said, "Yun Zhao has heard a lot about the ability of the son-in-law in the past. I heard that the son-in-law is good at making wine. I wonder if you have heard of the name of my Yuezhou rice wine?"

Xue Lang nodded, Yuezhou rice wine is what is called Shaoxing rice wine in modern times.As a wine gourmet, how could I have never heard of Shaoxing rice wine.

The name of Shaoxing rice wine has lasted through the ages and enjoyed a good reputation. It was after the Song Dynasty that Shaoxing rice wine became famous.Before the Song Dynasty, the most famous wine in Jiangsu and Zhejiang was Wucheng's Ruoxia wine.

Wucheng's name is the surname of a clan that is good at brewing wine, and the influence of naming places with their surnames can be seen.It's a pity that if drinking wine disappeared after the Song Dynasty, otherwise, it is really a mystery whether Shaoxing rice wine can rise.

Pei Yunzhao said: "People in the world only know that Wucheng can serve wine, but they don't know that Yuezhou can also produce good wine. Yun Zhao heard that the son-in-law is good at brewing, if he can get the advice of the son-in-law, improve and optimize our Yuezhou rice wine, so as to teach the world how to get rid of Wucheng. If Cheng Ruo drinks, my Yuezhou wine can also be famous all over the world!"

Xue Lang didn't agree right away, he didn't know if the Inspector Pei really wanted to engage in the Yuezhou rice wine matter, or he was just looking for an excuse to find an easier job to settle him down.However, no matter what it is, this is really a perfect job for him.

After thinking about it for a while, Xue Lang accepted the favor and said: "Thank you for your attention, but there are many things related to making good wine besides technology. It can be explored."

A smile appeared on Pei Yunzhao's serious face, and he nodded and said, "That's it... I'll leave it to my son-in-law. For the convenience of brewing wine, my son-in-law, do you need a specific place to live, or do you have any special requirements?"

If it is said that Shaoxing is the best place to make wine, do you still need to ask?Xue Lang smiled and said: "I have heard that during the Yonghe period of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Ma Zhenna, the prefect of Kuaiji, once gathered water from Shanyin and 36 sources of Kuaiji to obtain a lake called Jinghu. I heard that the water quality of the lake is excellent. It can be used to make wine, and it will have unexpected benefits and effects.”

"Yes, Yunzhao arranged for the son-in-law to live in the village by Jianhu Lake."

As he spoke, he glanced at Chang Shi, who immediately responded.After choosing a place to live, Pei Yunzhao took pictures of Chang Shi and accompanied Xue Lang to Jianhu.

Just out of the gate of the governor's mansion——

"Father!"

Changjian was already waiting outside the governor's mansion, and with him was Gu Li, the troupe captain who came to Yuezhou in advance.Xue Lang nodded, and said, "I'm about to go to Shi Changshi's place of residence, so you guys should follow."

"Here."

Seeing all this, Chang Shi's eyes flickered, but he didn't say much.Escorted by Chang Shi, he arrived at a small fishing village beside Jianhu Lake.This small fishing village is called Sishui Village. It got its name because of the Xitiao stream that surrounds the village.

Before arriving at Sishui Village, first visit Lizheng in this area, and then under the leadership of Lizheng, visit the village head of Sishui Village and hand over Xue Lang to him——

People in exile are subject to residential surveillance.The exiles are generally arranged in the villages where they are exiled, and are supervised by the village chief and local residents.Before going to visit Lizheng, Xue Lang said: "Yang Changshi, Xue Lang is an exiled person, and it may be inappropriate to call him a son-in-law. How about Yang Changshi calling me Axue?"

Yang Changshi was taken aback: "How can this be done? I don't dare to work in a lowly position!"

Xue Lang smiled wryly and said: "Now I am a sinner in exile, and I am called a son-in-law. What do the villagers think when I stay in the village? Everyone is not easy to get along with. For the sake of convenience in the future, this title has to be changed!"

Su Han also chimed in and said, "Indeed, Yang Changshi called Youyang Axue. If I don't give up, I'll call Dr. Su."

Seeing that the two were determined, Yang Changshi had no choice but to change his words.Afterwards, he visited Lizheng, and together with Lizheng went to Sishui Village where Xue Lang would live in the future.

Sishui Village is composed of five families with surnames, Chen, Wu, Su, Pan and Yu.The biggest surname in the village is Chen, and the village head is also surnamed Cheng. He is a grey-haired, hale and hearty little old man with a thin figure, bright eyes, and the unique accent of Wu Nong's soft language.

Where Xue Lang walked, he has seen too many people. He can understand the dialect of the Jiangsu and Zhejiang generations. Of course, he can't speak too local slang, and he can still understand ordinary speech.What the people here speak is slightly different from modern times, but the accent is a bit similar, Xue Lang even guessed, and he could understand half of it.

According to Tang law, four households are the neighbors, five neighbors are the protection, and one hundred households are the mile, and each mile is set up with one person.In the era of the Tang Dynasty, when taxes were paid on a household basis, the life of large families living together was popular.

Sishui Village is not very big, and there are not many households.Therefore, in this village, several villages unite to produce a grassroots official, and the most important thing in each village is the village head.Li was from the nearby fishing village, surnamed Liu.

The three of them probably thought that Xue Lang was a foreigner who could only listen to official language and could not understand Wu dialect. Although they didn't talk unscrupulously, they still treated Xue Lang as nothing.I heard Liu Lizheng asking Chang Shi: "Yang Changshi, why do you have to send someone down in person today? Could it be that this person is a repeat offender?"

Yang Changshi said: "It's not a repeat offender, but a person with a lot of background in Beijing. It's hard to tell you his real identity. Anyway, we are old friends. I can only remind you not to treat him like an ordinary person. "

Both Liu Lizheng and Village Chief Wu were taken aback. Village Chief Wu rolled his eyes and asked cautiously, "Then how should we arrange the labor? Please tell Chang Shi."

Chang Shi said: "Pei Inspector has made arrangements for this matter. You don't need to participate in the labor on the fields in your village. This one has another assignment. He just lives in your village. You can see that he doesn't leave without authorization. You don't need to worry about the rest. .”

"Here."

Village head Wu responded without asking any more questions.

When we arrived at the residence arranged for Xue Lang, it was not far from Jianhu Lake, a little distance from the village, not far away, but surrounded by water, if we want to leave the village, we can only pass through the village, which is very convenient monitor.

The house must have been unoccupied for a long time. Not to mention the dust, the walls and roof are very dilapidated.Yang Changshi was taken aback, and hurriedly said: "Axue, please forgive me, these people didn't know that someone would come, so the places they chose are mostly dilapidated, and I will immediately find someone to repair them?"

Xue Lang waved his hand and said: "To tell you the truth, Yang Changshi, before I came, my wife had already sent someone here. I have enough manpower here. If I need to do repairs, I can do it myself. But please trouble Yang Changshi." Tell this Village Chief Wu, and trouble him to take my men to buy materials."

Yang Changshi said cleverly: "How about this, I will leave my servant behind, and if there is anything, Axue can order him to do it."

Forget it, it's good to have a good relationship with him!
Xue Lang nodded in agreement, Changjian understood, and immediately stepped forward to chat with Yang Changshi's servant Sanming.Gu Li, the team leader, looked around and said, "Master, this place is a little small, if all of us come here, I'm afraid we won't be able to fit in."

Xue Lang said: "You don't have to come all of them. You rent a yard in Yuezhou City and live here first. How about this, you are divided into five groups, ten people in each group, come here in rotation."

Gu Li thought for a while, and agreed: "Here!"
