Chapter 11 The First Arrival in the County

Leaving Jinsha City, the stone drove the carriage and trotted all the way, in order to hide people's eyes, Qingsong asked Liangpi to open the official introduction and tax stamps, of course, the tax stamps are to give money, in order to have less trouble in the future, I would rather pay more money first.

In the afternoon, Shen caught up with the convoy at about four o'clock, changed all their clothes, and continued to hurry. Along the way, the pillar told everyone what had happened in Sands City, and everyone was hooked, and now even the tailor had it. At two o'clock, they saw the city wall of Fengxian County from afar, and everyone hurried to the road, and finally arrived at the city gate at three o'clock in Youshi, and then entered Fengxian County through the city gate after showing the official quotation and tax stamps. The county town is different, you can see a lot of fields on the road, and the street can be five horse-drawn carriages in parallel.

Shi said to everyone: "Fengxian County is named after the impatiens, the land is fertile, the grain yield is very high, and it has become one of the 32 counties of Daqin, a very important medium-sized city. There are more garrisons than the average county town. There are 3,000 elite soldiers in iron armor, 500 elite cavalry in iron belt, 8,000 soldiers in leather armor, 2,000 cavalry in leather armor, and 300 servants. There is a camp of elite soldiers outside the city, and I don't know how many soldiers there are. Originally, Jinsha City used to be resident with 1,000 leather armor soldiers and 200 leather armor cavalry, but later Jinsha came out too little, and in recent years, it has basically not come out, so now there are only 200 leather armor soldiers. Liangpi may have no money to pay tribute, or maybe his qualifications are too poor, so he went to Jinsha to be a soldier. Qing Song said: "I haven't come out since I was fifty years old, and I don't have any money to come out! I don't think that my righteous brother has passed away! I don't know the current situation, you can find a place to settle down!" On the way, Qing Song has told Shi all the way that many things need to be done by Shishi. Shi replied: "Okay! It is not cost-effective for so many of us to go to the big inn, it is better to find a small inn and bag a gold or two for two days." There is a place to park the carriages and horses, and we can also make our own food and feed the cattle and horses, which is also convenient for our business. But now that it is getting late, I can only go to the post station of the government to stay for one night, where only the conditions for receiving official guides are simple but safe. A moment later, everyone moved into the inn, and the leather-armored soldiers, who were left behind to guard the wagons, horses, and goods, laughed at the excess. The bull whispered to the pillar: "How do these stupid people know that the car pulled is equivalent to a hundred catties of gold!" The pillar also whispered: "Not necessarily! On the way here, I heard that it will be sold for water, and it will be much cheaper than not water!"

Everyone took out their burdens, and Qingsong told everyone to divide the rest of the steamed buns, and all of them were sharpened first, and it was too late to get anything to eat! The food at the post station was expensive and unpalatable, and they had learned it in 40 years! Everyone divided the steamed buns and then lived in the big room of the shop, and the post station only gave one big room, because the official introduction was only one volume, and of course so many people could not squeeze it.

Qing Song had the urge to show the edict and blind their dog eyes. Xiao Gang gave a look, and Qing Song endured it. I asked Shi Shi to negotiate with more than two pieces of silver and asked for three large houses, and more than 40 people barely lived and didn't go out to find food. I boiled water by myself, because there were many people who asked for more firewood, and I gave a little coin, so the head of the soldiers invited everyone to use it openly. After boiling the water, everyone took a bath to remove the wind and dust, and it was cold in the middle of the night in the autumn, and it was a lot warmer to take out the thick straw paper brought by the family. Qing Song told him: "This is made of bamboo silk and called paper, this is thick paper, and it is more convenient to take it to sleep when we go out, but this thing cannot be used to make clothes after a few times!"

After daybreak, the stone immediately went out to find a place to stay, and everyone hurried out of the station. When I came to a large courtyard facing the street, there was no way to do business on the street, and I had to pay one or two gold a day! Qing Song gave up one gold and shouted that the other party wrote the settlement and rented it for ten days, and the owner of the courtyard smiled and said: "Welcome to the high rollers to come again next time! The courtyard should be fully furnished, with pots and pans, firewood and water wells, and even quilts!"

After settling down, the stone took the cattle and the pillar to drive the carriage brought by the stone to buy rice, vegetables, vegetables, meat shop, salt, etc., before starting to cook, the time was limited, only Xiaogang ate jerky in the morning, everyone was hungry, and cooked porridge full, and it was already noon. Then I drove all the carts out to buy a lot of jars, which were in the yard of the large tank, and I saved a little. In the evening, the stone cooks the meal, and everyone eats a full meal, although it is not as good as the old lady's cooking, but it is much better than that of the post house!

When the people who were driving the car in Shigang Village fell asleep, the pillar gently went to the front yard and woke up the stones. The stone followed the pillar to the backyard, and the bull arranged for the two of them to control the wind in the front yard. Shi didn't know what to do, Qingshi and his uncle looked at him and smirked. Qingsong said: "Wait a minute, you will know! Children, open the whole!" Some of the people took water from the well, and some began to open the wine jar and seal it, and as soon as the wine jar was opened, the stone was covered: "What wine is so fragrant?" Then I saw them pour the wine into the large vat that had already been cleaned, and the whole backyard was shrouded in a violent aroma of wine, and poured three jars of wine at a time, and then poured water violently, and when it was halfway through the tank, Qingshi used a wooden spoon to stir the rhyme, scooped out a little taste, and felt that it was appropriate, and used a small bowl to distribute it to everyone to taste, even Xiaogang had. After tasting it, Xiao Gang quietly told Qingshi to use a vat of five jars and a vat of seven jars to concoct it, and the stone tasted the wine with so much water, since it was still so strong, he couldn't help but shake his head, and he couldn't figure it out!

After the preparation was completed, he began to install the jars, and since one jar asked for twenty jars, it was no wonder that so many jars were bought! The loaded ones were divided into second-class wine and third-grade wine, and they were stored separately, and after concocting them five times in a row, Qingsong said: "Okay! If the next step doesn't work, tomorrow take these prepared ones to the door and put them at the door with one gold and one altar for the third grade, and five taels of gold for the third grade, and don't bargain! Tonight's wine is afraid of attracting thieves, so I will bring the unprepared ones into the house, two people will guard the outside, and three people will guard the outside, and the old man will go to sleep! Don't ask too much about the stones, you will help collect the gold tomorrow!"

As soon as the morning dawned, I heard that there was a bustle outside, and they were all talking about the smell of wine in the middle of the night last night! Qingsong No. 1 was not in a hurry, and asked Xiao Gang to write on the wine jar next to him. I saw Xiao Gang write a big immortal character, and then the small character immortal drunk two products, immortal drunk three products after writing more than ten jars, let Xiao Gang rest and open an altar that had not been modulated to greet the uncle and Qingshi with a fan and fan. Now someone outside couldn't help but slam on the door, and the brute bull and the pillar opened the door with ten brothers. Twelve men in strong suits stood at the door on two floors, and the brute bull asked, "Who smashed the door?" A well-dressed old man asked, "Little brother, can you smell the wine?" We are looking for the source of the wine!"

The brute bull said: "Of course I smell it! It is my family's wine, and my uncle is a lover of wine, and he eats wine for three meals a day! Finally, he bought a batch of fine wine in a big city with a huge amount of money! Now he is eating wine in the backyard! Do you want to come to the door to beg for wine and food? I'm sorry! I don't know!" The pillar shouted: "I can't afford to invite so many people to eat and drink! What are you going to do? Don't squeeze it! I'm going to beat people up if you squeeze it any more!" Ten big men shouted: "Get out of the way!" No guests will be kept!" The old man was also angry: "What is the attitude of you children?" Maybe I know your uncle, what's your uncle's name?" Manniu smiled: "My uncle has a famous Qingshan and a famous Qingshi!" Who do you know?" The old man shouted loudly outside the door: "Brother Qingshi! I'm a cow man! Hurry up and pick me up, your nephew doesn't believe we know!"

At this time, the people outside shouted: "Qingshi comes out, the old man is visiting!" Zhuzi also wondered: "Does my uncle know so many people?" The brute bull said: "Don't listen to their nonsense! More than a hundred people, let the ghost go! Anyway, they won't let them in!" After shouting for a long time, Xiaogang's writing was also dry, and Qingsong nodded and asked Qingshi and his uncle to go out and have a look. Qingshi came to the door, and the bull roared: "Get out of the way!" My uncle is here, how can you get out of my uncle if you don't retreat?" So everyone retreated, and the street was blocked, and finally retreated, and Qingshi stood up: "Yo! Brother Niu, it's really you!" "Brother Qingshi! Your nephew is so rude! I am not allowed to enter." "Oh! Brother Niu Nan is really sorry! But I can let you in even if I come out!" "Why? Brother Qingshi! What is the secret of what is difficult to say?" "You also know! I am a person who loves wine, and I finally met such a fine wine but I am shy in my pocket! My eldest brother bought the money given and was about to take it home, there are too many things waiting for acquaintances to come and carry them, my eldest brother won't let me!" "It's okay if you don't go in! Give your brother a taste of your wine!" Qingshi was very embarrassed: "This! This is what my eldest brother paid for it, let me ask him!" Wait a minute!" The angry cow man blew his beard: "What kind of person? Such a good friendship and eating some wine will also be pushed back!" The next person laughed at him: "Come on! He went in and asked his eldest brother! Wait a minute, you can taste two bites, what about us? People don't know each other at all, it seems that the wine is gone!" After Qingshi entered, Qingsong sealed the wine jar, and let a nephew hold a jar of two products of the immortal drunk and take two bowls and follow out. Qingshi pointed to Niu Nan and said to Qing Song: "This is Niu Nan's brother, an old friend I met in Fengxian County!" and pointed to Qing Song and said to Niu Nan: "This is my eldest brother Qing Song, and my eldest brother is also very righteous." When the sailors and horses came to know our brothers!" Qingsong said: "Since it is a good friend who has come for wine! Please forgive me for the inconvenience! Just taste it at the door!" "Open the wine jar, and everyone really smells the fragrance of the wine from here! All the people at the door smell the rich aroma of wine, afraid of spilling the wine, Qingsong scooped out two and a half bowls in the jar with a wine bowl, and asked Qingshi to hand one to the cow man. The cow man held the wine bowl at the gate and sniffed it again, and Qingshi also picked up half a bowl and clinked glasses with him and explained that he must take a small sip of it! The cow man said: "Of course! Such a fragrance must be so sweet and fierce that you can't drink it in a big gulp!"

The two of them were drinking one sip after another at the gate, and countless voices of swallowing saliva sounded on the street! "What kind of wine is this! I don't see the slightest miscellaneous smell, nor any color, the fragrance is rich, the wine is full of strength, domineering and long, I'm afraid that if I really drink a bowl, I will get drunk here!"

Qingshi said: "I have met the fairyland, do you believe what I bought in the fairyland?" Everyone laughed when he said it, but Niu Nan really believed it: "Such a fine wine, there is indeed no one in the world!" Qingshi said: "That's not enough, but my eldest brother has already bought all the wine there, and is going to take it back and sell it! Make some money, and go back later!" Qingsong nodded: "If you don't sell some, you will drink the family's money until it runs out, just like boiling water, that guy didn't even leave a coin for the child until he died!" Speaking of boiling water, all the drunkards in Fengxian County know each other, and the veteran soldiers and horses are the masters!

Niu Nan said, "It's a way! Anyway, you can sell it when you go home, how about selling some to me?" When he heard that Qingsong was going to be sold, all the wine insects became excited. Qing Song said: "When I bought it, the jar of the second grade cost one gold, and the third grade cost seven taels, if you want, I will charge one gold and three taels for the second grade, and nine taels for the third grade?" Niu Nan nodded: "The price can be obtained, such a fine wine is really worth this money! I don't know how much I can share?" Qingshi wanted to speak, Qing Song asked him to shut up and turned around and then talked to Niu Nan at the gate: "Brother Niu Nan, you can think about it! I came here for a lot of money!" You don't want to drink all of them, you can also sell some at a higher price to make some money! How much do you want?" I saw the cow man settling the account with his fingers, and after a while he said: "Sixty jars of the second grade, you can taste some of the third grade! I haven't drunk it, I'm not sure I'm going to eat it! I'll also take out a batch and sell it to those who know the goods!" The pillar ran in and brought a jar of three products and opened it in front of everyone, and sure enough, the fragrance was a little worse, but a taste, and he scooped out half a bowl and handed it to the cow man. Niu Nan tasted it, nodded and said: "That's right! Sure enough, it's the same, but the taste is a little lighter, and even the color of this wine is the same, as thorough as clear water! Give me 100 jars of three grades! I'll go home and get the money immediately, but I'll open every jar and taste it! The amount is huge, please forgive me!" Qingsong replied: "Okay, but you have to seal it yourself, you have to be fast, this wine will run away when you see the wind!"

Sure enough, when he looked down at the wine bowl, there were already a lot of wine beads in it! The cow man put down the unfinished wine, turned around and ran. Running and running, they began to stumble, and some picked up the wine bowl that the cow man had put down. He also tasted it in small sips, and suddenly shouted: "Good wine! I am worried that I can't find a good gift to give it to, can I buy ten jars of this three-grade one?" Qingsong said: "Yes! One gold and one jar!" "Aren't you slaughtering people? How can I ask for one gold when he only gives nine taels?" "He is an old friend of my brother, and if he wants more, of course it will be cheaper!" "Then I want twenty altars, and we will be friends after being cheaper?" How about being born and ripe twice?" "Collect you twenty gold and give you one altar!" "Okay!" I'll go home and get the money right away, and you can't go back!" "I'll be friends from now on, what about my friends? Of course you won't regret what you see!" This one put down the wine bowl and ran away! This time several of them went to grab the wine bowl on the ground, and some of them were faster than them, and the pillar bent down and picked up the wine bowl. Several people were very angry, and one said: "The remnants of wine that people have drunk, we can't taste it too hard!" Qing Song said: "He is afraid that you will fight and mess up the door! You can draw fists, and drink the ones you win!" Qing Song shouted again: "This wine is very expensive, so it can't be shared with everyone to taste, and people who really think they can buy it can line up, and everyone has a cup to taste!" My uncle was the referee, but when he lost, he secretly ran to fight with others. After the referee nodded his head from Qingsong, he pretended not to see.

And he who took out the gold and could afford it, and did not care with them, but pretended not to see it. They are all wine worms, so why should the wine worms be embarrassed by the wine worms! There are also strange people who take out their own gold to buy wine, and they want to fight with the poor! The green pine inside the door called out the stones, prepared knives, pens, and bamboo slips, registered the name, quantity, and price, and then collected the gold according to this. He was afraid that Xiaogang would not be busy with writing, and he had used the brush a few times, so he slowly went to the backyard to help.

At the door, Qingshi saw that Qingsong had entered, and he was as happy as a tiger and monkey in the mountains, and snatched a jar of three products from the hand of the wild cow, and the immortal who snatched a jar of three products from the wild cow drunkenly roared: "Come if you have a wine cup!" You are not allowed to talk too much, my eldest brother agreed to taste it for everyone, drink more and drink less, you don't talk too much, where does my eldest brother know?"

This move was highly praised by the wine bugs. There was an old man who knew Qingshi squeezed over and took a wine cup and hooked his shoulders and praised him for being righteous enough, and Qingshi also said: "Old man, new friends! It's not that I didn't act righteously just now! Everyone knows this wine, right? It's really too precious, and the eldest brother is also good for me! It is inevitable that the head of the family will have to think about more things, let's divide this jar! You continue to draw fists, and if you win, you will still go to drink and eat!" After a while, the jar of wine was gone, and Qingshi let the pillar go in and brought two jars and three tastings. The people who lined up to buy wine shook their heads and thought, "Sure enough, you're a loser!"

Xiao Gang is thinking like this: there is some culture to be able to drink well, even if there is no culture, there are some crooked truths, this kind of person let Qingshi make friends. But it can't cost too much, if there are talented people in it who can take it away, take it away, and if you can't bring it back, it's easy to do things after a friendship!

So there was this scene at the gate, and some old acquaintances of Qingshi persuaded him after getting the wine: "Brother Qingshi, you are like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain to Brother Ling later!" Qingshi said: "Do my best, how can I enjoy such a beautiful wine alone!" Every friend has a little to taste, and the big deal is that he will be grounded by the eldest brother tomorrow!" As he was saying and sharing the wine, Niu Nan came back with the convoy. The old man jumped out of the car and gave Qingshi a bear hug: "This is my good buddy! Don't say anything, I know everything! Hurry up, if you haven't got the wine yet, hurry up and wait for me to give the gold, Qingsong will definitely come out, and you won't be able to share it then!
