Chapter 7: Borrowing Food Again

As the saying goes, time flies, the sun and the moon fly like a comb, and summer has already entered in the blink of an eye. Ma Hanshan has been in this world for three months. He has completely integrated into this world. He is also very suitable for the role of village leader. What is annoying is that the wine in this world is too

It’s too light, and there are no girls to pick up with….

Alas, he actually forgot that he is only fourteen years old now, so he can drink whatever he wants and pick up girls.

On this day, Ma Hanshan was drinking tea under the peach tree outside Juyi Hall and thinking about his thoughts. The alcohol content of fruit wine and rice wine in this world is too low, while the alcohol content of beer does not have the taste of beer. Yes, can I brew beer? Damn it.

Yes, no. I have seen steaming white wine before. It shouldn’t be difficult. Do you want to buy a steamer to steam some white wine...?

"Young Master...Young Master...the master of Shuilian Cave is here to visit..." Suddenly A Niu came to report.

"What? What did you say? Water Curtain Cave? Isn't that the Monkey King's territory?" Ma Hanshan exclaimed.

"Sun Wukong? Never heard of it. Water Curtain Cave is Sixingfang's territory. He is a bandit just like us. There are more than 80 people." A Niu has never heard of Sun Wukong.

Hou'er Mountain in the Guogai Mountain Range does have a large natural cave behind the waterfall, called Shuilian Cave. The cave is ten feet wide and one mile deep, with countless small caves crisscrossing it. Si Xingfang

The den of thieves is in this cave. Because of the complexity of the cave, Liu Mazi would rather go far away to rob Wagang Village and let Si Xingfang go.

Snapped!

"Idiot, how many times have I told you that we are not thieves, we are citizens. Liu Mazi is the bandit. Let him visit Liu Mazi...Oh, no, let him come in." Ma Hanshan waved to A Niu to send his face over.

, slapped him across the face and cursed.

I wanted to refuse and disappear, but suddenly I remembered the words of a great man in the previous life who said that we should unite all the forces that can be united.

Yes, let's meet, or maybe we can unite.

"Oh, I'll let the mountain gate pass." A Niu hurried away.

Now there are clear and concealed sentries within a five-mile radius of Wagangzhai, and communication signals and lights have been formulated. They will also send out smoke when there is danger. In short, it will never be like the last time Liu Mazi came, where the danger was only discovered at the mountain gate.

.

After a while, A Niu brought a man who looked similar to Sun Dasheng to the side of Mahan Mountain.

"Master, the cave master is here." A Niu said.

"Master of Ma Hanshan, I'm sorry to bother you, Si Xingfang of Hou'er Shanshuiliandong..." Si Xingfang, who looked like a senior brother, took a step forward and said to Ma Hanshan with clasped fists. He was very surprised. He didn't expect the current leader of Wagong Village.

The leader of the village turned out to be a half-grown child.

"Master Si Cave, hello, hello, please take a seat... Aniu, please stand out... Where is the stool?" Ma Hanshan stood up and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Si Fangxing. Si Xingfang was a little confused, and then he remembered that there was no one in this world.

Knowing the etiquette of shaking hands, I quickly returned the gesture with fists clasped.

In the future, we must promote handshakes as a courtesy. Ma Hanshan secretly felt cruel.

What does it mean to be eye-catching? Si Xingfang didn't understand it until A Niu brought a stool and brought tea, and he was too embarrassed to ask. It was really uncomfortable.

The reason why he is like this is because the tea he has drunk is "Assorted Tea", which is completely different from the cup of tea A Niu is serving now. "Assorted Tea" is also called Yinzi or Xiangyinzi. These teas have functional properties.

Drinks use many ingredients, usually tea with perilla, Ophiopogon japonicus, silver flowers, chrysanthemums, dates, etc.

Of course, there are also people who drink clear tea, but because the supply is small and the price is high, it has never become popular. Most of the people who drink clear tea are celebrities, great Confucians, monks, Taoists, knights and other people who have "seen the world".

What A Niu is offering now is the unique roasted green tea of ​​Wagonzhai. The tea brewed from this tea is apricot green, clear, fresh, mellow, and has a long-lasting fragrance... Unfortunately, Si Xingfang does not know the product and feels that Ma Hanshan has given

It's disrespectful for him to drink tea like this.

"Dong Master Si, you don't have to drink it if you don't like it. Let me tell you why you came." Ma Hanshan lay back on the recliner and said, "Humph, you're a stinky bandit who doesn't know what he's doing."

"Oh... I'm here to ask for help." Si Xingfang put down his tea cup and stood up, clasping his fists and saying.

It’s coming, it’s coming, I bet, it’s definitely here to ask for food again, fuck, what’s going on, why do mountain bandits always make things difficult for mountain bandits...mountain people?

"Oh? Please help? What should I say?" Ma Hanshan glanced sideways at Si Xingfang and said unhappily.

"Borrowing food, Shuiliandong has run out of food. I hope the leader of Mazhai will help out for the sake of being a comrade." Si Xingfang bent down and said.

"If you don't have food, go down the mountain to grab it. Don't you know how to eat in Shuiliandong?" Ma Hanshan said calmly.

"It's not that I don't understand, it's that I can't bear it, and I don't want to rob it. There are no barbarians or rich households in the villages and towns that can be reached at the foot of the mountain. They are all poor people in Dasong... Besides, they don't have food at this time of year."

Si Xingfang said helplessly.

"Then go farther, go north to Tangzhou. I don't believe there is no food in the capital of Tangzhou." Ma Hanshan said with a smile.

"Master Mazhai, please stop joking with me. There are only eighty people in Shuiliandong below, half of whom are old and weak. If you ask me to rob the Donghu people's state capital, aren't I going to die?" Si Xingfang Ku

Say it with a straight face.

Ma Hanshan suddenly sat up, looked at Si Xingfang and said, "Does Cave Master Si know Niu Bangxiong from Niujiao Village in Laojianshan?"

"I've heard his name for a long time, but I've never paid him a visit." Si Xingfang frowned and said.

What does this kid mean? Why did he end up in Niujiao Village with all his talk?

"Oh, I know you. Then I must know Cave Master Liu Mazisi from Laoyawo," Ma Hanshan said again.

"Of course I know him. How could he not know me? I have fought against this shameless villain before." Si Xingfang said angrily.

"Oh, we all know each other, that's great." Ma Hanshan was very happy. It turned out that this senior brother also had a relationship with Liu Mazi.

Of course, the enemy of the enemy is also a friend. Si Xingfang and Liu Mazi also had their differences. They were natural allies. Of course Ma Hanshan was happy.

Great? What do you mean? Si Xingfang was a little stunned.

"Mazhai Master, you..." Si Xingfang was confused.

"Dong Master Si, how much food do you want to borrow?" Ma Hanshan changed the subject again.

At this moment, Si Xingfang couldn't keep up with Ma Hanshan's rhythm at all, and A Niu, who was standing not far away, was once again worried about Ma Hanshan's brain. The young master's brain was really seriously ill. Why was he speaking so chaotically?

"Ah... lend me fifty dan." Si Xing's square head is about to crack. Why is this big kid jumping so much when he talks.

"Fifty stones? It's impossible. Let me lend you ten stones. We don't have much food." There is indeed not much food in Wagonzhai. Qi Nanyue, who went out to sell tea, has not come back yet, and the tea has not been sold.

Goods, no money.

"Mazhai Master, can you borrow a little more? Ten stones...Ten stones really won't be enough for the summer harvest." Si Xingfang bowed again. This was the most annoying thing about Ma Hanshan.

"There is no food in Wagang Village. I can only lend you ten shi. Otherwise, I can lend you another hundred catties of tea." After a room full of tea leaves, Ma Hanshan felt that this was a room full of treasures.

Ugh... Si Xingfang wants to cry. Who can drink tea now that he can't even eat.

"That... Mazhai Master... now people don't have enough to eat... Besides, no one drinks this kind of tea..." Si Xingfang said with a sad face.

"Oh, Cave Master Si, why are you so stupid? Who told you to drink tea? Can this satisfy your hunger? You can't eat, but a lot of people can. Let me tell you, my green tea, every day

A kilogram can be sold for at least three or four taels of silver." Ma Hanshan guessed whether it would be sold for dozens of taels of silver or a few taels of silver. He would not know until Qi Nanyue came back.

Ma Hanshan does not study history and does not know that the market in Dasong is much freer than that in the Song Dynasty. Wine, tea, salt and other products in the Song Dynasty are all officially exclusive. In Dasong, except for salt, wine and tea are not officially traded. Therefore, the price of tea

Much better than those in the Song Dynasty. The cheapest official tea purchased by the Song Dynasty was only eighteen cents, and the best tea was only dozens of cents. However, Dasong now has fine fine teas on the market for just a few taels of silver.

However, the so-called fine teas are all raw and sun-dried teas, while Mahanshan’s fried tea...is unique in Dasong.

"Ah... so expensive? It's a pity that this person is just a refugee who has no food to eat and has to live in the mountains. He doesn't understand business at all, so thank you to the owner of the village for your kindness." Si Xing just didn't believe it. A few taels of silver can buy a few stones of rice.

Now, who is willing to spend a few taels of silver to buy a pound of tea?

Alas, being uneducated is terrible, being without information is even more terrible.

"Haha, then there is nothing I can do...ah...how about you contact Niujiao Village and we can work together to go down the mountain and do something?" Ma Hanshan said casually.

"Of course they are from Donghu. You can contact them. I think Niujiao Village is not having a good time now." Sometimes the landlord's family doesn't have enough food, and the bandits may not have enough to eat.

"Of course they are from Donghu. You can contact them. I think Niujiao Village is not having a good time now." Sometimes the landlord's family doesn't have enough food, and the bandits may not have enough to eat.

"Okay, I will be responsible for contacting..." Si Xingfang borrowed ten shi of grain and went back to see if he would contact Niujiao Village. Ma Hanshan was not in a hurry. It was not time to beat Liu Mazi yet, and the militia training still needed to continue.

The complex identity and experience in his previous life made Ma Hanshan's character very complicated and changeable. When he came to this world, his idea was to build Wagang Village into a paradise, and then live here peacefully for the rest of his life. However,

Every time he thought about being slapped in the face by Liu Mazi on the first day he took over as village leader, he was filled with anger. Therefore, no matter what he did in the future, Liu Mazi must be eliminated.

To destroy Liu Mazi, he doesn't seem to have the strength just now, so he has to pull Si Xingfang and Niujiao Village to fight, three against one, and win steadily.

He believed that Si Xingfang was very willing to fight Liu Mazi, but Niujiao Village, which had no contact with Liu Mazi and was the farthest away, might not get involved in this matter. If there was no Niujiao Village, there would be Wagang Village and Shuiliandong.

Family, can you take down Liu Mazi?

But what Ma Hanshan didn't expect was that before Si Xingfang responded, Liu Mazi came again. This guy really had a lot of fun, and he only bullied Wagang Village...
