Chapter 281: Application for Transfer (1st Update)
There are four dishes and one soup on the table, one of which is braised pork, Du Dashan's favorite, and Du Dashan's best dish, which was promoted by Du Dashan back then.
"It's all home-cooked food, don't dislike it." General Huo said with a smile, "You can't drink alcohol in this barracks, and when you get to the capital, I will invite you to have a few more drinks." ”
Du Dashan hurriedly said politely: "This is already very good, it tastes good!" ”
When General Huo ate, there was no rule of eating and not sleeping, and while eating, he asked Du Dashan some questions.
Unconsciously talked about the medicinal wine, General Huo asked, "Dashan, where did you buy this medicinal wine?" I'm about to write an excerpt to the Ministry of War and His Majesty, requesting a large purchase of medicinal wine! ”
The excerpt written to the emperor and the military department must clarify everything, and if there are mistakes or falsehoods in it, this great credit will be discounted.
Of course, Du Dashan understands the meaning and knows what is at stake.
"Back to the general, the last general lied before, this wine was not bought, it was made by my family. The children of his subordinates found out about this wonderful thing and told them about it. The subordinates thought that it was a pity that so many soldiers died of a small wound in the northwest border pass, so they took the risk of bringing these things over. Fortunately, the emperor pays off his wishes, and it is really useful. ”
General Huo was stunned for a moment, then smiled again, and said, "In order to avoid suspicion, it is understandable that you are telling lies." But what you are going to say next must not be half-false. After all, if this matter is reported to the Ministry of War and the Imperial Court, it cannot be easily changed. ”
Du Dashan nodded and said, "Yes, General." I'll tell you the truth, and there's absolutely no half-talk! ”
"Tell me honestly, how much medicine and wine can your family provide in a year?" General Huo asked, according to the number of wounded soldiers in previous years, the adjutant around him has already made statistics, and at least 10,000 jars of medicine and wine are needed.
Du Dashan calculated and said: "My family has built a big workshop, and the wine is produced once every ten to fifteen days, each time it is about more than 1,000 jars of wine, and one jar of wine is about ten catties!" ”
General Huo did the math. This year's production is huge. It can fully meet the needs of the northwest side.
"Very good, this medicinal wine has proven to be very useful, and I will immediately give it to the imperial court to buy your family's medicinal wine as military supplies. I want ten thousand altars. If you can. Can the price be cheaper? General Huo's face was unnatural. Talking about business with the lower officials, it seems a little embarrassing.
Du Dashan listened to it and was embarrassed: "General." To tell you the truth, three taels of silver for one jar, plus freight and packaging, a total of five taels of silver for one jar, only made one percent profit. This liquor has just been brewed and can only be used as a medicinal wine, and although the aroma is strong, it is particularly spicy and cannot be drunk at all. However, this wine is aged for a year in a cellar at a low temperature, and not only is the aroma more intense, but the flavor is also very soft. My family's wine is sold to a local restaurant for three taels of silver a pound, and a jar of wine is thirty taels of silver. If you don't believe me, you can send someone to investigate. ”
General Huo Da was stunned, this Du Dashan sold to the army three taels and one catty and one jar, and one jar of ten catties, so calculated, one catty of medicinal wine is three hundred yuan, which is only one percent of the price of the wine that the Du family has stored.
This wine is so expensive! However, when I think of more expensive Jinhua wine, there are hundreds of taels of silver for a jar.
"I see, I'm too harsh, in that case, the price of the wine should be according to three taels and one jar. As for transport, I'll send someone. General Huo smiled and said, "By the way, your wine is not cheap, can you tell me, what is your name?" ”
The Ruan brothers have sold the Du family's wine to many places, but the quantity is small, and Ruan Er complained in front of Du Dashan more than once, saying that their family's wine production is too low.
"Du Jiaxian wine!" Du Dashan said with a smile, this is the simplest wine in their Du family's inheritance.
When the time comes, he will make the most beautiful wine in the world with his daughter.
"Du Jiaxian wine?" General Huo asked, and immediately remembered that his old friend wrote to him some time ago, saying that he had two jars of good wine, had drunk one jar, and kept one jar, and when he went back, he would give him a taste, and it seemed that the name of the wine would be Du Jiaxian wine.
"Hehe, it turns out that this Du family immortal wine belongs to yours!" General Huo was very surprised, he didn't see it, this subordinate actually has such a good thing at home!
Du Dashan said modestly: "When the wine cellared next year is ready, I will definitely leave a few jars for the general." ”
If it was something else, General Huo would never ask for it, but if it was good wine, he would definitely not refuse. Among the soldiers who went into battle to kill the enemy, there were a few who didn't like to drink.
"That's decided, give me a few more jars when the time comes." General Huo did not shirk and accepted it gladly.
Du Dashan was very happy when he saw General Huo, so he wanted to take advantage of General Huo's happiness and ask him to return to Jin County to be a petty official, close to home, and to be able to reunite with his family.
"General, the lower official wants to ask the general for something, and asks the general to fulfill it." Du Dashan said sincerely, hoping that his attitude would make General Huo agree to his request.
General Huo was in a good mood and went directly: "Say, as long as the general can do it, he will definitely agree to you." ”
Du Dashan provided these medicinal wines, and sold them cheaply to the Northwest Battalion, and General Huo Dashan owed Du Dashan a great favor.
"My subordinates are tired of the battlefield, they are not used to killing, and they have no ambitions, so they want to ask the general to transfer me to my hometown and be a petty official. In this way, I can supervise the brewing of the medicinal liquor and ensure that the medicinal liquor is foolproof. Du Dashan told the truth, although he was a little unmotivated, he really didn't like the life of fighting and killing, and he didn't want to live like that for a day.
When General Huo heard this, he couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart, and asked rhetorically: "Do you want to be close to home, you can go home often, and you can't let go of your wife and children?" ”
Du Dashan's face was slightly red, and he said, "You can't hide anything from the general!" ”
General Huo Dashan saw Du Dashan like this, although he was a little disappointed, after all, in his heart, he thought that a soldier who didn't want to be a general was not a good soldier, but he also understood Du Dashan's choice. Compared with the bitter cold land in the northwest, it is indeed not peaceful in my hometown.
"Transfer you back to Jin County or the surrounding places, I can't give you an answer for a while, but I will give you a note to the military department and the friends of the ministry to help you pay attention, and once there is a suitable position, I will transfer you over." In the Northwest Battalion, General Huo has the final say, but when he leaves the Northwest, he can only find someone to help
Although Du Dashan also guessed that there was such a possibility, he was a little disappointed when he heard General Huo say it with his own ears.
But think about it the other way, this official position is a radish and a pit, and the pit he wants already has a big radish, so he can't squat in it, so he can only wait for this radish to be vacated before he can go in. (To be continued......)
