Great Tang Broom Star

  Chapter 602 I'm Thinking... Jin Ge Iron Horse

   After drinking a bowl of wine, the eyes of several businessmen became brighter, and then they looked calm.

   "Too strong."

  The Korean businessman turned out to be Li Chun with a high nose bridge.

   Li Chun shook his head and said, "No one wants to drink this wine."

  Disappointment appeared in Li Yuanying's eyes.

  This is inappropriate!

   Jia Ping'an said flatly: "Tubo and Goryeo are bitterly cold. If Jia has never been there, it's fine. Since he has been, then don't play tricks in front of me. It's shameful."

  Li Chun smiled and said: "Marquis Wuyang's words are very true, but the wine is too strong..."

   "This wine...take a closer look." Jia Pingan nodded, and Lei Hong poured another bowl for each of them.

   A group of sand sculptures, have you ever seen such pure wine?

  Sake in this era is brewed wine. What is brewed wine? It is to use raw materials... such as fruits or grains for fermentation.

  Strictly speaking, Jiuniang of later generations is brewing wine.

   This kind of wine is cloudy, and there are various impurities left after fermentation.

  Green ants new fermented wine, green ants are the residue in the wine, they look like green ants.

   Later, I will write more, but it can only become a glass of dirty wine.

   Several businessmen looked down carefully.

   "This... is so clear?"

  A businessman reached in to stir up trouble.

   Barbarians!

   Lei Hong pulled his beard in disdain.

   "No impurities?"

"Of course." The bumpkins looked shocked, and Jia Pingan smiled and said, "What is the fountain of life? This is it! This wine is brewed with five kinds of grains. The five kinds of grains complement each other. When the wine is mature, all the residues will be left into wine."

   Awesome isn’t it?

   No matter how cunning a businessman is, he can only kneel in the face of such miracles.

   "Pure and flawless, no wonder it is called the fountain of life."

   "If this kind of wine is sent to Luoxi City..."

  The rich people in these cities will go crazy for it.

  What about Goryeo?

  Quan Gai Suwen would get very drunk, and then went to play with the woman of King Gaozang.

  Li Chun slyly said: "Marquis Wuyang, what's the price of this drink?"

   Jia Pingan tilted his head.

  Li Yuanying was excited, "This wine costs 10,000 yuan per bucket, and two buckets per jar."

  Is it expensive?

  Not expensive, cheap fried.

  The so-called golden bottle of fine wine is ten thousand dollars, and the bottle of wine is ten thousand dollars. A bucket of four catties, this wine is more expensive than later Maotai. But at this moment it is nothing more than normal.

   "This is the fountain of life." Jia Pingan said quietly: "Making money is not the goal."

   Bao Dong said solemnly: "Datang is not short of money."

   Lei Hong said in confusion: "Why don't you sell it to someone else."

   "I want it!"

   "Marquis Wuyang, I want this drink."

   Isn't it violent?

  The patriarchal family is small and transparent, but Li Yuanying, who has never experienced hardship since childhood, was shocked.

  How can such a bad drink be sold at a high price?

  He didn't know how cold it was in Liaodong, let alone the habit of drinking in cold regions in later generations, and he didn't know that the water mixed with alcohol can be sold as wine.

  Jia Pingan felt that all this was really boring, got up and said: "That's it, and besides, this drink is not for money."

What?

  Several businessmen were surprised, "Not selling for money..."

   It is impossible to give away for nothing, so what can I exchange for it?

   "You wait for the grain to be exchanged. Calculate according to the price of Tang's grain in the current season. That's it."

   Jia Ping'an left freely.

  Isn’t the court unwilling to sell more alcohol? Didn't they refuse to give food?

  Can I produce and sell my own products? Can all my food be imported?

  Who the **** dares to beep?

  Li Yuanying stood up, "Mr.

   Later, Li Yuanying entered the palace in ecstasy.

   "Your Majesty, a lot of wine has been sold."

   Li Zhi frowned, and said dissatisfied: "There is not enough food, why are you still selling it?"

  The people depend on food, and the Yellow Turban Rebellion in the former Han Dynasty is not far away. Whenever it comes to food security issues, the emperors and ministers of the Tang Dynasty would rather kill the wrong than let it go.

  Li Yuanying said with a smile: "Your Majesty, I called a few smugglers earlier, and they were willing to pay with grain. The grain is made into wine, and then sold to them... Marquis Wuyang said that this is export to domestic sales."

Huh!

   Li Zhi was surprised, "What price?"

   "Doujiu ten thousand dollars."

   "Can you compare Sanle pulp?"

   Li Zhi was a little surprised.

  Li Yuanying turned around, "Please bring me a jar of wine."

  A servant ran to get a jar of wine at the smuggling office later.

   "Please look, Your Majesty."

  The wine is so clear that it is unbelievable.

   "This is called the Fountain of Life."

  The appearance was good, and the loyal servant Wang Zhongliang raised his head and drank a bowl, smashed it and said, "Good wine!"

   Li Zhi asked: "How much does this drink cost?"

Well!

  This is embarrassing!

   "Your Majesty, this drink...is about ten times less than ordinary drinks."

   Li Zhi took a breath.

   Profiteer!

   This is definitely a profiteer.

  Ordinary drinks are about two to three hundred dollars a bucket, ten times that is two to three thousand dollars, but they sell them for ten thousand dollars.

  Earn several times.

   "Marquis Wuyang said that if he didn't want to expand the market, it wouldn't be a problem to sell 20,000 yuan a bucket. But small profits but quick turnover!"

Li Zhi covered his forehead, "Is it possible to make money like this in business? I am so shaken in my heart. No wonder officials are banned from entering the market. Once they go in and out of the market frequently, they will be shaken by seeing the money coming in and out... In the long run, they will think about how to make money... not to be corrupt." Or geometry?"

  Li Yuanying laughed dryly, thinking that this means that I got into money?

   It is you who can make money! His Majesty!

too crazy.

   "Go."

  Li Zhi could not give up the temptation of huge sums of money after all.

  After Li Yuanying left, he smiled wryly and said, "I originally thought that the affairs of merchants were unbearable, so I let Prince Teng and other notorious people take care of them, which complemented each other perfectly. But whoever thought that I would inevitably be tempted."

  Wang Zhongliang looked indifferent.

  This idiot doesn't know the benefits of money, no wonder he isn't tempted.

  Boom!

  Wang Zhongliang fell straight.

   "Come here!"

   Li Zhi's eyes became more angry, "Call the medical officer."

   Could it be that the wine is poisonous?

  A servant squatted down and took a look, "Your Majesty, Wang Zhongguan seems to be drunk."

  When the medical officer heard the emperor's call, he ran like flying.

"Drunk."

  The medical officer looked angry, "Your Majesty, Wang Zhongguan was drunk on duty, he was extremely unbearable, and should be severely punished!"

  Wang Zhongliang was carried back, and Li Zhi stood there, laughing suddenly.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

   "Tubo and Goryeo are bitterly cold, and those who can afford this kind of wine are rich and powerful. If they are addicted to this, and if things go on like this, their will will be depressed. This is a soldier who surrenders without fighting."

   "Your Majesty."

  Wu Mei is here.

   "Meiniang came just in time."

   Li Zhi waved, and when she came in, he pointed to the drink and said, "Come and have a drink."

  Wu Mei shook her head, "The concubine is pregnant..."

  Li Zhi slapped his forehead, "I'm a little happier, but I've lost myself."

   "Why is Your Majesty happy?" Wu Mei asked with a smile.

   "King Teng and the others exchange wine for food. They used to earn money, but now they can earn food. If they can sell more, at least they can replenish some food... That's right." Li Zhi said: "Wang Zhongliang."

   "Your Majesty, Wang Zhongguan is drunk."

  Li Zhi laughed, "I still want him? Go and tell King Teng that after the grain enters the country, they will remove the need for their wine making, and all the surplus will be sold to local soldiers and civilians at the border. The price of grain will be lower."

"yes."

  After understanding the ins and outs, Wu Mei couldn't help praising: "This kind of fine wine is really amazing, especially the purity."

  Li Zhi was also quite curious, "Jia Pingan made this."

  He glanced at Wu Mei.

   It is wrong for the emperor to ask his courtiers for things, but you are his elder sister, so there is no problem.

  Wu Mei turned around, "Shao Peng, go ask Marquis Wuyang how this fountain of life is brewed?"

  A waiter muttered, "King Teng said earlier that it is brewed from five kinds of grains..."

  Li Zhi became more and more curious, "Then I want to see what a clever method it is to get such fine wine."

  Shaopeng hurried to find Jia Pingan.

   "How is the fountain of life brewed?"

   Jia Ping'an looked confused, "Brewing? There is no way! It's just blending..."

   Fuck.

  Shao Peng went back with a constipated face.

   "Your Majesty, Empress, Marquis Wuyang said that the so-called fountain of life is a mixture of alcohol and water."

   The corner of Li Zhi's mouth twitched.

  Wu Mei said angrily: "He's becoming more and more prodigal, so call him into the palace."

   How many kicks is this going to take?

  Jia Pingan entered the palace full of complaints.

   "Your Majesty, Empress, the alcohol is distilled from grain brewing, but it is actually concentrated wine, but it is too strong, and it will hurt your body if you drink it. After mixing it with water, it is not the fountain of life."

  Wu Mei gritted her teeth and said, "Profitable businessman!"

hehe!

   Profiteer?

  Look at Li Zhi, that Longyan Joyful appearance.

  The raw materials are the payment for the goods, and Datang pays for the labor costs, making a lot of money in the middle. This business is booming.

  These business methods surprised the empress. As for the evaluation of profiteers, Jia Pingan felt that they thought too much.

  He is just trying his hand at the sword, if he really wants to make a move...these people will be confused if they just pick up a few of the business methods of later generations.

   After he left, Li Zhi said, "What if he does business?"

  Is the emperor worried that Ping An will become a wealthy businessman?

  Wu Mei smiled slightly in her heart, "Ping'an is too busy, and besides, his family is not short of money now, according to him, as long as there is enough money."

  Li Zhi nodded slightly.

  …

  Back home, Jia Pingan went to the alcohol workshop first.

   "Marquis of Wuyang." Zheng Erchun with a broken arm greeted him.

   There is little water vapor inside, and there is a strong smell of alcohol.

   "Big business is coming."

  The wine shop has 20% of the shares of the Jia family, and the excess interest is given to the household department, and a thing similar to a fund is set up to allocate money to the disabled soldiers every year.

   "The army needs so much alcohol every year, where's the business?"

Zheng Erchun's life was difficult at first, but Jia Ping'an found him and twelve other disabled warriors, who were in charge of the winery management, and made Cui Dunli, who was picky at the time, the Minister of the Ministry of War, speechless. In the Ministry of Households, Cui Dunli's prestige in the Ministry of War was greatly reduced.

   "In the future, King Teng will send food every year, and make as much as you send. You are not allowed to embezzle it. The alcohol you get will be blended and given to them."

  The Smuggling Office has been smuggling goods from Datang before, but there is no source of goods that they can control, and now they have.

"yes."

  Zheng Erchun took Jia Pingan in, and the disabled soldiers saluted when they saw him.

   "Marquis of Wuyang, let's have dinner together."

  An invitation was made.

   "Also."

  Jia Ping'an prefers such a relatively simple atmosphere.

   Jia Pingan asked, "Where is the kitchen?"

  Zheng Erchun panicked, "I dare not let Marquis Wuyang in."

   "Get out!" Jia Pingan scolded with a smile: "I'm so delicate, I can't even enter the kitchen."

   Later, a big pot of dishes came out.

   "A hodgepodge, a big bowl for each person, everything."

  He made a dry pot, that is, mixed various stir-fried vegetables.

  It would be great if there was another small stove below.

  Put a few slices of Chinese cabbage at the bottom of the pot, and then pour in various stir-fried vegetables...

   Jia Ping'an was a little drooling.

  The old soldiers were panicked, "Thank you, Marquis Wuyang."

   "Sit down, sit down."

   "Where's the drink?"

  It is said that there is no banquet without wine, and these old soldiers all look dissatisfied without wine.

  Zheng Erchun stood up, "I'll go buy it."

   Jia Ping'an's heart moved.

   "Haven't you thought about the drinks in the drinking shop?"

  The so-called later generations: There is Canada in foreign countries, and everyone takes it in China.

  You take a little, I take a little, and a factory is slowly taken away.

  Zheng Erchun smiled and said: "How can it be! Since we are asked to do things, we will take the money and food that should be taken, and take what should not be taken. If you see it, chop your hands."

   These words were murderous, but those old soldiers took it for granted.

   "Little fish, go home and get a jar of wine."

   When the drinks came later, the veterans salivated, Jia Pingan smiled and said, "Go get another jar."

   After drinking for three rounds, everyone wolfed down the meal, Zheng Erchun said embarrassingly: "This is how meals are eaten in the army. If you eat slowly, you will lose your share."

   "One time it was a fight against the Turks. The brothers chased them all the way. Only later did they realize that there were thousands of Turks. We only had a hundred. The captain who led the army rushed in first and was hacked to death..."

   "The brothers rushed to kill immediately, the one who was killed in that battle..."

  The old soldier shook his head, "It was only later that I found out that I met the elite of the Turkic people. The Turkic dignitaries gave a heavy reward, and everyone worked hard. In that battle...the old man lost a leg."

  The old soldier raised his head and drank the wine in the bowl.

  Jia Pingan asked: "Do you regret it?"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

  The old soldier laughed boldly and said: "The old man was plowing the land at home, looking at the field every day, marrying a wife and having children. Later, the late emperor conquered Goryeo, and the old people in the village talked about the tragic situation of the former Sui's conquest of Goryeo..."

  The ex-Sui conquest of Goryeo was really bad.

"Your Majesty has an order that there is no need to recruit young men to join the army, but the old man in the village said that he wanted revenge. The old man was puzzled, so he asked why. The old man said that when he conquered Korea, more than ten people went to the village. The corpses of the dead were built as Jingguan."

There was more sadness in the old soldier's eyes, "The third uncle of the old man is among them. If you don't avenge such a big revenge, why are you a human being? The people in the village rushed away, and the old man entered the Zhechong mansion at that time, and later caught up with the late emperor's conquest. Korea..."

  He said proudly: "This old man beheaded six people in Korea!"

  Jia Pingan raised his bowl, "The Tang Dynasty is mighty."

   "The mighty Tang Dynasty!"

   Everyone drank it down.

  Zheng Erchun let out a belch, "Back when I joined the army... people in the village said that digging food in the fields was useless, and if you have the ability, go kill the enemy to earn military merit. I was tempted."

   "Old Zheng, were you afraid of death back then?" An old soldier laughed.

   "Afraid of a fart!"

   Zheng Erchun scolded: "Think about the time when the world was in chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, and there was no peace. Those thieves fought in melee, at most coercing together to cause chaos, but when the Turks came, they burned, killed and looted. If the Tang Dynasty is defeated..."

   "But the Tang Dynasty will not be defeated." An old soldier said contemptuously: "When we killed the enemy back then, neither the Turks nor the Koreans were our opponents."

   "The Turkic people were disabled, the first emperor conquered Goryeo, and the Goryeo people huddled in the city and dared not come out. The Tang Dynasty...has a great reputation!"

  An old soldier raised his bowl, "For the great reputation of Datang!"

   Jia Ping'an drank it all in one gulp.

  These old soldiers did not have any noble purpose in joining the army. The first is to earn military merit, and the second is to protect their homes from infringement.

  But it is these people who support this mighty Tang!

   Jia Pingan staggered up and went back, Xu Xiaoyu followed behind.

   "Little fish, what do you want in this life?"

  Xu Xiaoyu was startled, "Lang Jun, that's what I want...that's it."

  This is the life of ordinary people. If you ask them what pursuit or goal they have, most of them will say that I just want to live my current life until I die.

  Back home, Ah Fu approached, then ran away.

   Entering the backyard, Sanhua stepped forward to serve her. After smelling the smell of wine, she said softly, "Do you want hangover soup, sir?"

"don't want."

   Jia Ping'an felt that his mind was full of gold and iron horses.

  Those veterans' war experiences sparked those memories.

  Diezhou, Liaodong, Western Regions...

   This Tang Dynasty has countless foreign enemies.

   But it is precisely because of this that this Tang Dynasty is so great.

   Without difficulties, the heroism of this Tang Dynasty cannot be demonstrated.

   "Aye!"

  The little cotton-padded jacket was circling in the yard, and Hongyan was watching from the side.

   Jia Ping'an squatted down, ran over staggeringly, and was hugged by him.

"Smelly!"

  Doudou raised his head and struggled, Jia Pingan laughed out loud, overjoyed.

   "Husband has been drinking?"

   Wei Wushuang came out and asked someone to get hangover soup.

   Sanhua was a little stunned, "Didn't Mr. Lang say he wouldn't drink it?"

   Hongyan glanced at her, "This is Madam's business, what kind of person are you, can you make a fuss?"

  Su He said happily: "Husband, earlier Teng Wang sent someone to give a gift, saying that he was thankful for his advice. Husband, what did you teach him? How to do business? Those businessmen are cheating each other, fighting openly and secretly... Tell me about it."

Well!

  Jia Pingan felt that Su Ho was thinking too much, "Actually, the so-called battle in the mall is not that exciting."

  The hype written in the novel is actually just simple and rude drugging, or stealing things, or directly looking for big bosses to suppress...

   It’s really nothing exciting, it’s just that it’s become a myth after its success.

   "Auntie!"

  DouDou reached out with a wrinkled face, Su Ho smiled and hugged her, "DouDou doesn't want Aye?"

"Smelly!"

  DouDou lay in Su Ho's arms and shouted, "Go, Aunt, let's go!"

  The little padded jacket leaked air again.

   Jia Pingan sat under the eaves, feeling the coolness.

   Wei Wushuang stood behind him, gently rubbing his shoulders, "My husband is a little excited?"

"yes!"

   Jia Ping'an leaned back and leaned on her body, "Drinking with the old soldiers, listening to them talking about the fight in the past, thinking about this, I realized that the founding of the Tang Dynasty has been difficult until now."

  After the founding of the Tang Dynasty, facing the broken country, it could only clean up step by step. But foreign enemies will not give you a chance to breathe.

  The first emperor ascended the throne, and the Turkic soldiers approached the Wei River.

  Korea is eyeing up in Liaodong.

   Tubo Zanpu also wanted to take a bite of Datang.

  In such a situation, the first emperor was able to bring Datang to this point, he deserves to be a hero.

   "What is your husband thinking?"

   Wei Wushuang thought he was asleep.

  Jia Ping'an opened his eyes, "I was thinking about... a golden horse and an iron horse."

  …

   Ask for votes!
