Chapter 26: Expanding Power
It was Dinisha who reminded him that if you want to develop the village, commercial trade is very important, and to put it bluntly, it is money.
Liu Bei was driven around by Cao Cao, why could he still make a fortune and pull up a group of soldiers and horses, because when he was in Xuzhou, he kidnapped the sister of the wealthy Xuzhou businessman Mi Zhu, that is, Mrs. Mi.
After the Battle of Guandu, Cao Pi was the first to enter the city to kidnap Yuan Shao's daughter-in-law Zhen Ji, also because Zhen was the largest wealthy merchant family in Jizhou, rich enough to rival the country, and was the first wealthy merchant in the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Therefore, if you want to be the king and hegemon, you must not only have soldiers and food in your hands, but also have money!
So for the current Baimen Village, how to make money in business?
The unique food culture of the Han people gave Lu Bu the idea of doing business, after all, just making breakfast for Denisha is not something that people from another world can make, this is a business opportunity.
At lunchtime, Lu Bu called Zhang Liang and the old village chief, the elder, James and others, and made a table of food for them to taste.
Zhang Liang's tears flowed when he ate, how long has it been since he had eaten a meal in his hometown, fragrant, so fragrant!
The natives of the other world are full of food and praise.
Good guy, the meal was swept away, and a group of people were still staring at Lu Bu, hoping that he would make a little more, but Lu Bu had to roll his eyes and make another table of food.
After he was full of wine and food, Lu Bu talked to them about the idea of opening a restaurant, and when it came to opening a restaurant, Lu Bu thought about wine again?
The wine of the Han Dynasty was all bad rice wine, low degree, no Saccharomyces cerevisiae, only koji, fermentation all depends on luck, and there is no alcohol distillation technology, only the wine invented by Du Kang is better, but the liquor at that time still can't be compared with the later ones.
So compared to wines from other worlds, it's a lump of rotten water, and it has no marketing value at all, so what should I do?
Let the old village chief and others discuss the construction of the hotel first, Lu Bu secretly asked the Demon God System: "System, regarding wine, do you have any better recipes here?"
"Yes!" the system replied simply: "The big turntable goes!"
"I'll rub!"
Lu Bu cursed secretly, and when the big turntable turned, he had to cry and cry and pray: "Wine, wine, wine, wine, wine, wine!!"
He was so anxious that he held back his strength, his whole face turned red, and when the pointer settled, the system prompted: "Ding Dong! Congratulations to the host, get the wine recipe Sweet White Noble Rotten Wine." β
"Sweet white noble rotten wine, rotten wine, can you still drink it?" Holding the wine recipe in his hand, Lu Bu was speechless, but since it was produced by the system, it should be guaranteed that it would not mess around.
While everyone was in full swing, Lu Bu coughed dryly and said, "You all know white wine, right? β
"Well, I know. The old village chief was the first to say: "Because our race is gifted with wisdom, we can learn a lot of skills the day after tomorrow, so one of the life skills passed down from generation to generation by the human race is to make wine." β
"Deep in the forest, not far from the village of Baimen, there is a depression that has been obscured by fog for many years, and the air is humid and the temperature is pleasant, where the vines can be planted and then made into wine, which has always been an important income for the village, and also used to pay tribute to horse thieves for protection. β
"But in the last few years, the horse thieves have suddenly gone crazy and plundered and slaughtered the village, and only our last village is left in this area, and if the village chief had not arrived in time, the village would have been completely gone. β
Speaking of sadness, the old village chief couldn't stop crying, and Lu Bu had to call James to comfort the old village chief for him.
"Okay, that's all I'm going to talk about is wine!"
Lu Bu spread out the map, pointed to a misty area deep in the forest above, and said, "At present, Master Redsa has built a hunting hut outside the forest, and with the continuous expansion of the size of the hunting team, just a hunting hut is simply not enough. β
"I'm going to build a few more hunting lodges in the heart of the forest, as a base for the hunting party, and also a stronghold for Master Redessa, who likes to be quiet, so let him live here, and at the same time, I'm going to rebuild the vineyard, so I'll let Master Redesa watch over it. β
"Okay, okay, this can be regarded as an income generation for our village. The old village chief raised his hands in agreement, and the great elder had no opinion.
As for Zhang Liang, this guy didn't care about these things at all, but just asked: "What kind of wine is wine, and is it good to have Du Kang wine?"
Lu Bu smiled mysteriously and sold a pass: "You'll know when the time comes!"
Call the leader of the hunting team and ask how the hunting team is doing, most of the members have mastered the three basic skills of the hunter profession, but no one has yet met the requirements for changing to a hunter, the reason is very simple, the honor of war is not enough.
The hunting team is not strong enough now, and the hunters who have not officially changed their careers can only wander around the edge of the forest, and once they go deep into the forest, they will definitely die an ugly death, after all, there are all kinds of beasts in the forest, and they are not something that ordinary people can deal with.
Lu Bu pondered for a moment and said, "I will personally lead a team to investigate the situation next, from the outpost village (horse thief cottage), and then you will select 30 of the most elite people and go with me." β
"Yes!"
A few days later, everything was ready, and Lu Bu personally led a militia of 150 people, a hunting party of 30 people, and a total of 182 people, including him and the militia captain James.
Zhang Liang was left by him in Baimen Village, in order to guard the captives, especially the black magician Menna, if Zhang Liang also set off with the army, there would really be no one in the village who could stop Mengna.
After the gate of the outpost was opened, the group walked out one after another, dressed in full leather armor.
To get from the stockade to the outside, you have to pass through a narrow valley corridor, and at either end of the corridor are uneven valleys, on which several militia patrols and sentry are hidden.
When I finally walked out of the valley, I was surrounded by a large fog outside, and the visibility was very low, I could only see a few meters in front of me, and it was so quiet that there was not even the sound of a small bird.
Coupled with the fact that it is located in the middle of nowhere, it is no wonder that this valley has not been discovered for so many years.
Comparing the AR map displayed in front of him, Lu Bu found the nearest monster point as if he had opened the map plug-in, and ordered the whole army to ride horses to attack.
The cavalry of more than 180 people quickly rushed to the designated monster spot, and Lu Bu ordered the army to stop and hold the reins: "Phewββ!!
Turning over and dismounting, hiding behind a rock, looking far away, in front of it is an F-class monster cave, according to the instructions on the map, there are several monsters in the monster cave.
Lu Bu frowned and asked, "Hmm, system, how many are the numbers? This number is very unclear." β
The system replied: "It's good to be able to tell you a few, anyway, it's just an F-class monster cave, you just do it!"
"I'm not responsible, for the safety of the people's lives!" Lu Bu was speechless, and then rushed over first.
