Chapter 201: Good things and bad things always follow (Part 2)
"I'm afraid it won't start until three months later. General Su Dingfang's side is a matter of immediate concern. Tubo has already assembled elite troops to move to the opposite side of him. Speaking of pressure, the area southwest of Tuyuhun is the biggest." I have it on hand.
According to the military report, Mr. Cheng’s deployment is now in place. Troops have gathered in Xizhou and Tingzhou. They are just waiting for the military order to march westward along the Tudun River. The old man’s indiscriminate raiding plan will begin.
Once the military attack on the Western Turks is successful, the troops will immediately be divided into two groups. One group will continue to attack westward and wipe out the remnants. The other group will go south into Tuyuhun to fight the Tubo people. The premise is to capture the Western Turks without losses in March.
It was carried out under Tuyuhun's strategic plan. It sounds very exciting, and it is even more exciting when I do it. Thinking about it makes my nose bleed, so I'd better just be a spectator. My little heart can't bear that kind of load.
"Why are you so angry about someone attacking a city?" Lanling saw my nosebleeds and hurriedly took out a handkerchief, wet it in the tea and covered it, "When I talk about killing people, you spurt out blood. It's a pity that you have to eat bloody tofu."
.”
"No, you were wearing thin clothes, and you looked at places you shouldn't have looked at, and it started to bleed." He took the wet handkerchief and stuffed his nostrils with a stiff mouth, "It's hot, I just talked to you, and I haven't drank any water yet. My blood is high."
Symptoms mean that I have a good constitution and have abundant blood."
"You stuffed it all wrong, but you're still prosperous." Lan Ling took out the handkerchief and stuffed it into the other nostril, "What's your ability? With your body, don't mention going to the battlefield. You'll die first. As a grown man, you can't
I have the nerve to defend myself, but it’s not a shame.”
"A bit..." He asked the maid to get a basin of cold water to wash his face. He stuffed his whole face into the basin and soaked it several times, then wiped it randomly, "Hot-blooded young people are all like this. It's not strange after seeing it often. Now it's like this
Don't tell anyone about it, or I'll silence you."
"Haha..." Lan Ling lifted my head and carefully wiped the blood stains around it, "I am a good at bullying women. As a husband, I can eat and drink, so there is no need to boast. You are the only one in the Tang Dynasty.
, but it’s so majestic. I thought that it didn’t have any other skills except eating and drinking, but now I see another one, with a loud nosebleed, which can be regarded as a skill.”
"Don't count it, it's just your ability." He grabbed a piece of watermelon and started eating it, "Please be gentle, you are wiping your face, do you think you are rubbing your feet?"
"Haha..." Lan Ling smiled crookedly at me, "I just wanted to tell you about my feet." He held my face and looked at the changes. After he was satisfied, he put the handkerchief in the basin and plugged his nostrils.
"The shoes for your left and right feet can be worn and comfortable to wear, unlike old shoes that have to be worn for a long time to force the shape of your feet out. I also drew the pattern based on my own feet and finished wearing them."
Look."
"That's because your feet are big!" Lan Ling had always forced me to take them off and wear them on his own feet ever since he saw my new style of shoes. "It's not shameful to see pictures of big feet, and you even showed them to me. It's more embarrassing than having a nosebleed."
Too much."
"I was born with big feet. Who do you want to blame?" Lan Ling glared at me and moved me to lie down. "How many more days will it take? The cotton pods in Nanlin Garden are already clucking. Why don't you go to Fenghe?
?”
"That's right." Lanling's parents are not just anyone who dares to blame anything they want, and the consequences will be disastrous. "We will go to Zhuangzi when he goes to the wine distilling workshop to make money. Just taking it for granted. Do you think I don't want to go to the river to escape the summer heat? You know I
Is my family being oppressed by the imperial court now? The order before and after has been increased by 40%, 40%. The method has been given to the Ministry of Industry, why don't they open a workshop to brew it, and they still stalk me and strangle me? "
"Oh, there are still complaints." Lan Ling smiled and pointed at my head. "The wine is steamed in your family's secret method. Now, although the court has a solution, it still tries its best to purchase it from your family.
The other thing is to help you survive the alcohol prohibition. Are you stupid?"
"Oh!" He slapped his forehead. This is Lanling's new way to protect the Wang family's toilet water industry. Once the imperial court opens a brewing and steaming workshop, the Wang family will have nothing to worry about when the output increases. It is possible that the Wang family's special treatment will be logically extended.
If we cancel it, it will be a disaster for the Wang family. "Haha. You should think of the long term."
"This love has nothing to do with me. Someone thought of it," Lan Ling pretended not to say who gave me such a favor. But it was definitely not the emperor who protected me. "That's why I suppressed the thought of the workshop when I went to the Ministry of Works.
Now the output is still going to increase. It will only start when the previous fight is over and 40% will be used. Didn't you collect a lot of brewing workshops? Start working quickly. Once you can't supply the imperial court, then the Ministry of Industry will start a workshop.
Sooner or later."
Yes, the state-owned enterprises founded by the Ministry of Industry personally cannot compete with me, a township enterprise owner, in terms of access to raw materials and scale. Once they are officially operational, the advantages of state institutions will be more obvious, and my costs will definitely be higher than others.
, even if they lift the restrictions on alcohol prohibition, I can't sell it to the official. In this era, the prestige of the official is still very high. Once a product is added with the official name, it is a guarantee of quality and credibility, especially for customers like the military, which is difficult to resist.
temptation.
"Thank you for me. I am sincerely grateful. It is not easy for us ordinary people to earn a little money. Sometimes we have to rely on people to say a few kind words to survive." I moved a little and pulled out the handkerchief stuffed in my nose. There was blood.
It has stopped and my breathing has become much smoother. "Don't make things difficult for others. After all, this is a big deal. The court will not let this fat man go. Once the pressure is too great, he will let him go and leave only a flower for the Wang family."
The proportion of dew raw materials is. In fact, at this time, the government supervised the production of wine making, which was much better than the forced prohibition of alcohol. Prohibition of alcohol seemed to save a lot of food, but the chain impact it brought was too great. Many restaurants were not visited by anyone.
, Cheng Chu and I went out for a drink last time, do you know how much it cost?" Thinking of the two of them drinking and paying the bill after sending Qin Yu off a few days ago, I didn't feel much at the time, but I felt sad after thinking about it.
"I haven't calculated this account yet," Lan Ling listened to my reminder, lowered his head and thought for a while, "What kind of algorithm? Do you calculate it like you sell paper?"
Now the Chen family is the only legal brewer in the country. There are countless people who come to the arena every day to ask for wine. Not to mention friends such as the Cheng family and the Cui family, they respond to requests and ask for help half-light and half-dark. It doesn't matter. But.
Chang'an is not only dominated by the power of a few families, but also the Shang Dynasty.
Let’s not talk about it. It’s not easy to offend anyone, including the prince, the duke, and the marquis. It used to be that he was just greedy for some money, but now he is under a lot of pressure and it’s a bit difficult to resist. The fourth child has started to act like a loser, and the father-in-law has started to act like a loser.
He was worried about death, and his brother-in-law even ran back and forth home.
"You also know that the fourth child often comes to complain to you, right? As long as the official control is good, the distribution is based on people and households, and there is a limit on how much wine a family can drink in a month, it will not cause a waste of food. For example,
It is said that the prince has the right to weigh ten pounds, and the duke reduces it to seven pounds, and so on. It is not difficult. It also fills the national treasury and saves many industries that rely on wine." It was supplied by ticket. I often stole it when I was a child.
The family's food stamps, gas stamps, cigarette stamps, etc. were exchanged for pocket money. After they were satisfied, they were beaten severely and then stolen... "Actually, it is better to change the Wang family's special brewing rights to those from the Ministry of Works workshop."
The right to purchase is to go to the Ministry of Industry and purchase a quota of wine according to the production standards of toilet water. But let me tell you, if I can make my own wine to maintain the best toilet water, you are my mother-in-law, and you will definitely have a way."
"Oh, let me think about it." Lan Ling liked me to call her mother-in-law, and she lowered her head happily and began to calculate, "I plan to make statistics in Chang'an according to your method, just a rough calculation. If it is like what you said, the gain outweighs the loss.
If so, then we have to discuss it carefully."
"What more statistics are there? The gain will definitely outweigh the loss. Just let the Ministry of Industry do it." I had long wanted to explain this to Lan Ling. The privilege sounded tempting, but it was really uncomfortable to hold it in my hands. He immediately promised: "I
