"Don't I want to open a brewing workshop? I'm a humble person. The brewing workshop is too eye-catching, so why don't I find a powerful partner? Is there anyone in Jingzhou who is more powerful than General Huo?" Jiang Hexi slowly said
Slowly state the purpose.
Liuying immediately clapped her hands and said proudly: "Our general is naturally the leader of Jingzhou. Girl, you can't go wrong if you go to him!"
"Besides, girl, please be more at ease! As long as you speak, girl, the general will definitely agree." Liu Ying did not forget Wen Jianzhou's words long ago and took the opportunity to flatter him.
"Then it's better to hit the sun than to choose a day. Let's hitch up the carriage and go there immediately!" Jiang Hexi didn't have the intention to pay attention to the unfinished words in her words. She was only thinking about turning the mellow bottles of wine into piles of white flowers.
Of silver, he immediately took advantage of the situation.
Liuying was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect her to be so anxious, but she still nodded subconsciously.
So, the green carriage once again galloped on the loess road of Ping'an Village, heading towards the familiar direction.
In the magnificent General's Mansion, Jiang Hexi was pretending to be calm, but in fact he was sitting nervously on a wooden chair in the main room.
"Miss Jiang, please have tea. The general went to the military camp early in the morning. I have sent someone to invite him, but it will probably take a while before he comes back. Please ask Miss Jiang to wait a moment." Butler Huo brought the tea with him.
Zhan's maid came slowly and explained with a smile.
"It doesn't matter, I was the one who was bothering Butler Huo." Jiang Hexi hurriedly stood up and said with a smile.
"Girl, this snack is so delicious. It tastes as good as the one from Huo Guogong's Mansion! You should also try it." Liu Ying's mouth was full of snacks and she muttered incoherently.
Jiang Hexi immediately handed her a cup of tea, patted her back gently, shook her head helplessly, and said softly: "Eat slowly, don't choke."
Butler Huo took a loving look at the purring Liu Ying and the gentle and considerate Jiang Hexi. His smile became deeper and deeper, and he said: "Liu Ying's nose is still as sharp as before. This snack was made by the cook who the general brought back from Huo Guogong's mansion."
Yes, it tastes pretty good, Miss Jiang, please try it."
"Okay, thank you, Butler Huo." Jiang Hexi agreed with a smile, picked up a piece of delicate snack and tasted it slowly.
"How is it? Is it delicious?" Liu Ying asked curiously.
"It's delicious!" After taking a bite, Jiang Hexi felt her mouth watering, and the fragrant and glutinous satisfaction filled her entire mouth, intoxicating her hard teeth with sweetness.
Just as a few people were enjoying the delicious food with laughter, the sound of hurried footsteps was getting closer and closer, waking up the two people who were immersed in the snacks.
Jiang Hexi looked up and saw a tall man in black walking quickly. The strong wind caused by his quick movements raised his black brocade robe. The man's rippling red phoenix eyes overflowed with moving emotions, and his straight nose bridge
Shangqin broke out into a thin stream of sweat, which complemented the white cheeks that were slightly red from running in a hurry, and the stunned woman was intoxicated.
"Liu Ying has met the general!" As soon as she saw Huo Jingchen coming, Liu Ying immediately put down the snacks in her hands, stood up and saluted with clasped fists.
Huo Jingchen raised his hand slightly, signaling Liu Ying not to be polite, and turned to stare at Jiang Hexi, who was stunned.
Seeing her rare slow reaction, Huo Jingchen raised his eyebrows, and a slight smile flashed in his eyes.
"General Huo!" Hearing Liu Ying's excited voice, Jiang Hexi came back to her senses and subconsciously touched her earlobe, feeling embarrassed.
"Miss Jiang, I haven't seen you for a long time. How are you doing, Miss Jiang?" Seeing her reaction, the smile in Huo Jingchen's eyes deepened and he said warmly.
Jiang Hexi faked a smile and said stiffly: "Pretty good."
However, Liu Ying couldn't help it anymore. Seeing how the two people were chatting, how could they get to the point? She anxiously grabbed Jiang Hexi's sleeve and winked at her.
"General Huo, I have something to discuss with you. Could you please lend me a moment?" Jiang Hexi then remembered the purpose of coming today and said seriously.
Huo Jingchen nodded slightly and signaled Butler Huo and others to retreat.
"Miss Jiang, it doesn't matter if you say so."
Jiang Hexi calmed down and said: "General Huo, I have a few brewing recipes here. I want to open a brewing workshop, but the brewing business has always attracted attention, so I want to cooperate with General Huo."
"General Huo just needs to lend me his name. He doesn't need any manpower. I will arrange the rest. How about we divide it into 30-70 with General Huo? If it doesn't work, 40-60 will do." Seeing that he seemed a little hesitant.
Jiang Hexi gritted his teeth and said distressedly.
Seeing her sore look, Huo Jingchen laughed loudly and said jokingly: "Miss Jiang, don't worry, Huo Mou doesn't want a share of the pie. Miss Jiang just opens the wine shop, and the general's office will take care of the rest for you."
I don’t want any share of the joint, Miss Jiang can rest assured.”
"No, I can't accept the general's favor in vain. The general must accept these, otherwise I won't dare bother the general." Jiang Hexi was not happy anymore, shook his head and said firmly.
Seeing that she was so serious, Huo Jingchen had no choice but to give up and said helplessly: "Okay, I'll accept it, just 19 points will be enough. I'll give you 90%."
"Okay, it's up to you. If you have any difficulties, just come to me. The door of the General's Mansion will be open for you!" Huo Jingchen smiled helplessly.
"Thank you, General Huo." Jiang Hexi surrendered and said gratefully.
Huo Jingchen hurriedly avoided her etiquette and touched his nose uncomfortably.
"By the way, Miss Jiang, where do you plan to open this wine shop?" Huo Jingchen changed the subject.
Hearing this, Jiang Hexi immediately became energetic and said with bright eyes: "I have thought about it. The winery will be opened in Ping'an Village. This Ping'an Village is close to Jingjiang River. The water quality of Jingjiang River is excellent and is most suitable for making wine. Moreover, Ping'an Village
There are several large villages nearby with sufficient food, and it is also convenient to buy food and make wine."
"Besides, I have gradually gotten along well with the villagers in Ping'an Village. When the time comes, I will hire people from the village to make wine, and I won't be afraid of others making trouble."
Listening to her well-arranged plan, Huo Jingchen nodded approvingly and said, "I will send a few helpers to you then, so that I can guard the wine shop to avoid any trouble caused by unsighted people."
"Also, this winery cannot be built in a short time. I will send a team of soldiers to you and let them help you build the winery. This can be faster." Huo Jingchen thought for a while and added.
If the soldiers of Huo Jiajun knew that their master actually drove them to build a house, they would probably stamp their feet with anger. The dignified Huo Jiajun, who was so frightened by the people of Beidi, was reduced to a mason building a workshop. It would really make everyone cry when they hear it, and sad when they see it.
!
Jiang Hexi hesitated for a moment, but agreed, saying: "Then I'll bother General Huo. I'll pay the soldiers another salary at that time, so they won't suffer any loss."
"Okay." Huo Jingchen finally saw that Jiang Hexi was very stubborn and was not polite, so he agreed directly.
"If you like this snack, how about I give this cook to you?" From the corner of his eye, Huo Jingchen saw Liu Ying eating snacks and thought of Jiang Hexi's dazed look just now, and smiled.
Jiang Hexi hurriedly waved her hands and refused: "No, General Huo specially brought this cook from home. How dare I take it away? Besides, you will get tired of this snack if you eat too much, so there is no need to trouble General Huo."
"Then if you want to eat, just come to the General's Mansion as a guest." Huo Jingchen thought of something, rolled his eyes, and said warmly.
"Okay! Thank you, General Huo." Jiang Hexi hurriedly agreed, fearing that he would say something to embarrass her again.
For a moment, the atmosphere was quite harmonious. The two of them looked at each other and smiled in silence.
"Miss Jiang is here, Yu Bai, why didn't you inform me." Wen Jianzhou heard her voice first before hearing her, and suddenly walked over from the front yard of Huo's house.
"Mr. Wen." Jiang Hexi quickly stood up and said with a smile.
"Hello, Miss Jiang. I haven't seen Miss Jiang for a long time. Miss Jiang is getting more energetic." Wen Jianzhou greeted.
"I just heard Miss Jiang talking about wine making. What's going on?" Seeing what Jiang Hexi wanted to say, Wen Jianzhou immediately interrupted and said impatiently.
Jiang Hexi glanced at Wen Jianzhou with such keen ears in surprise and said, "Mr. Wen has a good ear. I was just discussing with General Huo about cooperating in building a brewery."
"I'm good at doing business! Can you count on me?" Hearing this, Wen Jianzhou immediately perked up and asked with great interest.
"Miss Jiang, please don't look at me as someone who is unworldly, but I am a good hand in business. I have shops all over Dasheng. When I came to Jingzhou, I might as well be okay.
, but I am also here to do business." Wen Jianzhou saw Jiang Hexi's hesitation and immediately expressed his confidence.
Jiang Hexi's eyes lit up, a sly smile appeared in her eyes, she clapped her hands and said, "That's great! Then we will leave it to Mr. Wen for the fine wine in our winery."
"Easy to say, easy to say, I'll take care of it all." Wen Jianzhou assured, waving his fan in a charming manner and patting his chest.
Looking at Wen Jianzhou who was smiling, Huo Jingchen felt a faint itching at the roots of his teeth. He reluctantly suppressed the reluctance in his heart and looked at him expressionlessly.
Wen Jianzhou had already been immersed in the plan to make money. He was discussing with Jiang Hexi, so he had no time to care about Huo Jingchen's mood.
"Miss Jiang, did you make the knitted clothes you gave me last year? Why have I never seen such a novelty before?" Wen Jianzhou thought of something and asked curiously.
"Yes! That's what I made in the knitting workshop I opened when I had nothing to do. But now that the weather is getting hotter and hotter, the workshop has stopped working a long time ago. But if Mr. Wen likes it, I will make some more for you." Jiang Hexi said warmly.
Wen Jianzhou shook his fan and said: "Wen didn't come here to ask for anything from Miss Jiang. I just thought that it would be a pity not to sell such a good thing elsewhere, especially in the military camp, where the soldiers use their hands and feet every cold winter."
He suffered from frostbite, and the military expenditure provided by the imperial court was always insufficient, so these soldiers did not have cotton-padded clothes for the winter."
