Chapter 105 The wine is ready
The method is indeed good, but it depends on the person.
Quangang got Wang He drunk that night, but Wang He tasted very good wine and fell asleep when he got drunk, which made Quangang stunned.
Quan Gang told the Dragon King about this and asked with a look of anticipation: "Master Dragon King, do you have the magic of speaking the truth after drinking?"
“Wood…has…”
Quangang has a lot of things to do, and it is impossible to get to know Wang He every day. Master Longwang is not very comfortable with heart-to-heart talks, especially when he talks with a big man. Whether Wang He can get rid of his heart disease depends on himself.
On that day, Zhao Bao returned from Qing'an County, but he did not bring back the merchants because the situation in Qing'an County was not good.
When the dignitaries and nobles in Qingping County fled, some of them went to Qing'an County. These people were more alert. After arriving in Qing'an County, they made a big fuss about the snake monster in Qingping County, which caused Qing'an County to become more and more disgusted with the name of snake monster. Recently, bandits in Qing'an County were having troubles there, and the bandits in Kuangfeng Village were making trouble there. Therefore, although Zhao Bao had a good tongue, he did not induce a merchant to come to Qingping County for a walk.
Although Zhao Bao returned without success this time and was a little disappointed, Master Dragon King comforted him. He liked believers like Zhao Bao very much. He couldn't think that he was not capable of doing anything and gave up just because he failed to accomplish something.
The Dragon King found Tiewei and asked Zhao Bao to join the Fort Protection Team, and was responsible for teaching the members of the Fort Protection Team to sneak into and find out the news. This ability is still very useful.
On the other hand, the Zhen family usually comes every ten days and half a month. Usually, Shi Wen brings the Zhen family warriors. Every time he comes, Shi Wen will inform the Dragon King of Mingfeng County.
For example, Master Longwang already knew that Shi Xie's second son Shi Jie had come to Mingfeng County, dug out the body of "Shiwu" and transported it back to the ancestral land of the Shi family. At the same time, Shi Jie was training troops in Mingfeng County, and should have the intention to attack Qingping County.
"How many troops are there in Qing'an County now?"
"There are about a thousand people, and the soldiers have brought many warriors they recruit, which are elite." Shi Wen replied.
"Is that true?" Master Longwang nodded, thinking whether he should go to Mingfeng County again. Of course, Master Longwang would not be afraid of an army of only a thousand people, but if he really attacked, the speed of construction of the county town would definitely be delayed, and he must pay attention to the safety of the believers.
However, after thinking about it, the Dragon King decided to wait for a while and go over when Shi Ji trained his soldiers well. Thinking about the fact that Shi Ji trained his soldiers well, he thought that he could kill the snake demon in one fell swoop. When the Dragon King appeared, the entire army was frightened and fled in panic. How serious should the confidence of Shi Ji strike?
Moreover, Master Dragon King also prefers to do it once and for all. If he goes over now and breaks up the army in Mingfeng County, there will definitely be a steady stream of troops coming later. It is really too troublesome.
Time entered June like this.
Several major events also happened in June 184, all of which were related to the Yellow Turbans.
The Yellow Turban Que, Zhang Mancheng, was killed by Qin Jie, the prefect of Nanyang this month. The Yellow Turban Army supported Zhao Hong as the commander and trapped Wancheng. Lu Zhi also defeated Zhang Jiao in several battles, allowing Zhang Jiao to retreat to Guangzong.
After arriving here, the Yellow Turbans had already become a decline, and the rest was to give some heroes military merits. In addition to veterans like Lu Zhi, Huangfu Song, and Zhu Jun, Cao Mengde and Sun Jian became famous through this war and won considerable fame. They can be said to be the two who made the most profits.
Liu Bei should only be considered a so-called soybean in this war. He made very little contribution and was only granted the title of county magistrate in one county. He did not know history and would definitely not care about Liu Bei at this time.
............
The weather is getting hotter and the grapes in Qingping County are fragrant.
Three ox carts slowly drove towards Qingping County.
"Uncle, this county town is exactly the same as our Tiejiabao, with so many grapes." Zhang Xiaoyang, who was lying on the ox cart, stared at the grapes on both sides.
Tie Yong smiled. He came to the county town this time to bring wine to the Dragon King. Zhang Xiaoyang hadn't seen Liu Dalu for a long time and begged to come.
The wine from Tiejiabao has been brewed, but among the dozen barrels of wine they have made, only three barrels of wine that have actually become. One barrel of the remaining one has broken, and the rest has become vinegar...
However, vinegar is also good, because vinegar is also a relatively expensive thing in this era. Well, in fact, in this era, anything that can be eaten can be called expensive, but life is not worth it because troubled times are coming.
The Dragon King received the news and came out early. Seeing the Dragon King's huge body, Zhang Xiaoyang shouted happily: "Snake... The Dragon King King, the Lamb is here."
This title made the Dragon King stunned for a moment, and he smiled and said, "What's wrong with the lamb? Are you unhappy? You didn't call me that before."
Zhang Xiaoyang leaned into the Dragon King's ear and said in a low voice: "Uncle and aunt told Xiaoyang that you should not call snake monsters in front of outsiders. If that is not good, it will cause others to misunderstand. Snake monsters, you love the sheep, so the sheep cannot make it difficult for snake monsters to do."
"Haha, the lamb has grown up and is sensible, and he is almost becoming a big girl." The Dragon King was very happy.
Tie Ling, Tie Yong, and Wang Yong on the carriage all jumped off the carriage and bowed to the Dragon King. The three of them were always together.
"All these three barrels of wine?"
"Yes, Dragon King."
"You've tasted it all?"
"Well, this barrel tastes the best. This barrel is slightly slower, but this barrel is more sour, but it is also wine."
"Open it, I'll try it too."
He tasted all three barrels of wine. Because there was no sugar added when brewing this time, it was actually a bit sour, but the sour taste of the first barrel was almost impossible to detect, because the grapes in this barrel were all the best grapes, and only one or two of each bunch could be selected. This brewing method may not be as good as modern wineries in other aspects, but it is definitely not inferior to the raw materials.
The second barrel is more sour, because the grapes used in this barrel are all inferior products, and the last barrel is the most sour, and it is like a mixture of wine and vinegar, but the wine tastes stronger.
"You teach the method to the people in the county, and then follow the first two barrels to brew it, and forget about the last barrel."
"The fourth uncle said the same thing, saying that the Dragon King would definitely like these two barrels of wine."
"Haha, things are quite busy here recently, and I can't leave. You guys shouldn't go back to Tiejiabao for the time being, just stay in the county town."
"Okay, Dragon King." The three of them were all overjoyed, and they had a future with the Dragon King.
