Chapter 225 The distillation vessel is ready

Now the emperor wants to take power, but he has no power in his hands. People's support is the most important thing.

It is basically impossible to reduce or reduce taxes, and it is basically impossible for the courtiers in the DPRK to agree to it.

Then the only way is to find potatoes and let the people have enough to eat.

The people of the feudal dynasty were simple-minded and would support anyone who could keep them fed.

If they can live and work in peace and contentment, and if someone wants to start a war, they will be the first to refuse.

Jiang Zhao pondered, if she couldn't find potatoes, it would be a little troublesome for her to implement her subsequent plan.

But no matter what, look for it first and then talk about it. If you can find the best one, if you can’t find it, then think of a way.

At this time, Zhuzi's father and mother also came to the mountain.

"As soon as we got home, we saw the note on the table and came over to see if there was anything we could do to help."

"Everything that needs to be done has been done, so what else can I do to help?"

Jiang Zhao smiled.

Several children were playing in the backyard and came to the front. As soon as they saw their parents coming, they all ran over.

"Father, Mom, you are here."

They are all children, and they start acting coquettishly when they see their parents.

Several children in the temple were a little disappointed when they saw this scene.

They are all at the age when they need their parents, but their parents are no longer around. When they see other children acting coquettishly towards their parents, they will inevitably feel disappointed and disappointed.

A few aunts in the temple took a few children and held them in their arms to give them some comfort.

Jiang Zhao looked at everyone with a smile and said.

"In that case, let's take our leave first."

Having said all that needs to be said, there is no need to stay for a meal. It is not easy to transport food to the mountain, so save what you can.

When Zhuzi's father and mother saw Jiang Zhao leaving, they also left immediately.

It was almost lunch time and they should go back to cook. The three children were also hungry.

Jiang Zhao and others went down the mountain together. When they passed your Zhuzhu's house, the couple asked them to stay for dinner.

"Two gentlemen, it's already noon, why don't you stay and have a casual meal."

Jiang Zhao had helped them a lot, so it was reasonable to treat them to a meal.

But Jiang Zhao and the others rarely come out. During this time, they were all here because of Chongguang Temple, and there was no time to treat them to dinner.

But Jiang Zhao shook his head and declined: "No, we have things to do when we get back, so we won't eat."

Zhuzi's father nodded: "Those two gentlemen will be busy first. When we have time in the future, we will arrange a banquet for several gentlemen."

After Jiang Zhao agreed, he said goodbye to them.

Back home, Si Mubai and Jiu Qi were waiting in the garden.

Seeing Jiang Zhao and the others coming, Jiuqi's eyes were shining.

"You're here, I'm almost hungry."

Jiang Zhao was confused: "Didn't Jingshui Tower come to deliver the food?"

"I sent it, but the young master said that we should wait until you come back to eat together."

Jiuqi glanced at Si Mubai with some resentment.

Jiang Zhao nodded: "Then let's eat first."

"Brother Mu Bai, if Jingshui Tower comes to deliver food next time and we are not here, you can eat first without waiting for us, lest you be hungry and the food will be cold by then."

"It's okay, it doesn't matter if you wait."

Si Mubai said.

No matter what he said now, Jiuqi came to the dining room, opened the food box, and the smell of food hit her nostrils.

"Just come back early next time, so you don't have to wait for us."

Jiuqi said while taking out the food.

"Then we usually have trouble coming back in time."

For example, I was late chatting with the emperor.

Jiuqi shrugged, it would be too late, as long as it didn't delay his work.

Jiang Zhao sat down and started to cook. After running around all morning, almost all the food he had eaten in the morning was digested, and his stomach was already growling with hunger.

After lunch, Jiang Zhao was still thinking about potatoes.

The potatoes in her previous life came across the ocean to her country in the late Ming Dynasty.

But in this world, she didn't know whether there were potatoes or not.

Trying to find such a tiny patch in a vast continent is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Si Mubai was watching her from behind, wondering what was on her mind.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

Jiang Zhao came to his senses and opened the door.

Then they saw the blacksmith they were looking for that morning arriving.

Behind him was a large truck.

Seeing him, Jiang Zhao's face was filled with excitement.

"Is my custom-made product ready?"

The iron carpenter nodded: "It's done. It's specially sent here today. Please check it for acceptance."

Jiang Zhao stepped forward and lifted the cloth covering it.

Look left, look right, knock left, knock, knock right.

After confirming that there was no problem, he nodded.

"Well done, no problem."

"You guys help me move the things in, and I'll pay you the final payment."

Jiang Zhao said.

The two blacksmiths worked together to move in the wooden barrel customized by Jiang Zhao.

Jiang Zhao directed them.

"A little to the right, a little to the right, be careful not to hit the door frame."

"A little lower, a little lower, and I'll hit you."

Directed them to put things into the garden.

Si Mubai was watching her from the side, not knowing what the strange big bucket she made was used for.

Under Jiang Zhao's command, the two men carried the iron bucket with great difficulty before placing it in the garden.

Fortunately, I didn't hit anything.

Jiang Zhao gave each of them a glass of water and said.

"Thank you for your hard work, two masters. Drink some water first, and I'll get you some money."

After saying that, he turned around and went upstairs to get money for them.

He dug out his silver bag from the drawer in the room.

He took out a piece of silver weighing five taels from it.

Go downstairs and give the five taels of silver to the carpenter.

After the carpenter took the silver, he shook it in his hand and said.

"Mr. Sir, this... this is too much. Just give me three to two to five hundred coins. We don't have that much money to give you in change. You'd better give us some silver in exchange."

With that said, he handed the silver in his hand back to Jiang Zhao.

Jiang Zhao asked him to take it back: "This is so much that it's just hard work. Please help me move this big iron bucket in."

The two masters looked at each other, put the silver in their arms, and said.

"Then thank you, Mr. Lang. Thank you, Mr. Lang."

Jiang Zhao shook his head: "You're welcome."

After getting the money, the two of them said goodbye and didn't bother them anymore.

After the two left, Si Mubai stepped forward, looked at the strange big bucket in the garden, and asked.

"What is this thing used for? Does it look so strange?"

Jiang Zhao explained to him: "This is used to make wine."

Simu Bai looked at the big iron barrel up and down, and he couldn't imagine how the two iron and wooden barrels connected together were used to make wine.

"Well, you go get some wine and I'll show you."

Now that it's here, it's time to experiment and see if it works. If it doesn't work, then try it again.

"There's no wine at home, so I'll go out and buy some."

Si Mubai said.
