Chapter 11: The Enemy (I)
As soon as she returned to the princess's mansion, Wu Yue reported the entire process of the covenant to the nineteenth princess. Of course, this kind of major event is also present, and these three people are the core of the Nineteenth Princess's Mansion.
Manager Wu looked at the half-cut knife that was cut off by Gao Tiehua, and his face became ugly: "Princess, I am afraid that Gao Tiehua's knife is already an eight-grade weapon, and Yue'er's knife is only six-grade, so after two fights, this knife will be cut off immediately!" ”
"What then? The best in my house is the double knife I use, that is, the eighth grade, but Wu Yue will not make the willow leaf double knife! Why don't you lend her my weapon!" The nineteenth princess also frowned, although she bought the shop, but she caused such trouble, she was really depressed!
"Can that yellow blacksmith make an eight-grade weapon? Even if it's seven pins, I can deal with high-speed iron flowers! Wu Yue had illusions about the yellow blacksmith who had just arrived, hoping that he could help him.
"It's useless, his craftsmanship is also a six-grade weapon, at most it can only be used for ordinary guards! And to build a good weapon, you need not only excellent craftsmanship, but also good fine iron and flint! Chief Wu shook his head, in fact, from the beginning, Chief Wu didn't look down on this yellow blacksmith, but let him build ordinary weapons, anyway, if the princess mansion wants to develop its own strength in the future, this kind of person is still very needed! The flint he spoke of was actually coal. The world has already started to use coal! However, the quality of coal produced in different places varies greatly. The price is also much worse!
The nineteenth princess Xia Zhen'er also knew that this yellow blacksmith would definitely not be able to help Wu Yue! But you can't watch Wu Yue lose on the other party's weapon! At the same time, the nineteenth princess Hao Wuyue had doubts about Ji Zhihui, could it be that this Ji Zhihui had something to do with the fourteenth princess's mansion, and it was discussed in advance!
"Nope! At most, Ji Zhihui revealed his identity when he was negotiating with the shop owner. After all, he went out on behalf of the Nineteenth Princess's Mansion! It should have been used by the fourteenth princess! "Unexpectedly, Chief Wu denied this speculation, what he said was a possibility, and there was also a basis, that is, Ji Zhihui and Zhu Xiaobao are now together, and the knowledge and intelligence that Zhu Xiaobao has shown in the past few days will definitely not be the cannon fodder of the Fourteenth Princess's Mansion! From this, Chief Wu judged that Ji Zhihui should not know!
……
At this time, Ji Zhihui couldn't wait to come to Zhu Xiaobao, and now that Chief Wu was not there, he could discuss with Zhu Xiaobao, although he also felt that he was probably causing some trouble this time. But this has a fart relationship with him, he just needs to look for business opportunities and continue to stay in the Nineteenth Princess's Mansion!
"Little treasure! I'm back, what's there to eat? As soon as Ji Zhihui entered the door, he shouted, since Zhu Xiaobao has made tofu now, there will be more follow-up products in the future, tofu brain, dried tofu, stinky tofu and so on.
"Hee-hee! Of course there is, but what about what I want? Zhu Xiaobao looked forward to it, the last time Ji Zhichen brought too little soybean oil, he has now used it up. So this time he asked Ji Zhihan to buy a lot of things. Didn't he get a reward of two taels of silver from Chief Wu, and all of them were handed over to Ji Zhichen!
The agricultural products of this world are very abundant, almost all of them should be available, and the output is very large, because there are a large number of slaves, so that the cultivated area is very large, and those big landlords and rich people have tens of thousands of slaves in their families, so the labor force is very low. One of the most important manifestations of the strength of the rich in this world is the number of slaves they own.
Having a large number of slaves can not only produce more food, but also use slaves to fill the annual conscription, avoiding the loss of your family's bloodline! Of course, there are also a considerable number of royal and noble disciples who go into battle to fight, they are in order to gain fame, or to train themselves, it is useless to have money, but also to have power, but also to have real skills! The Great Xia Kingdom is a country established by force! Even the relatives of the emperor do not dare to slack off, and they have been practicing martial arts diligently since childhood!
So what surprised Zhu Xiaobao was that although there were wars for many years, the grain still seemed to be abundant, and the extra soybeans were basically used to squeeze oil, and then feed the pigs, which was also very reasonable!
The only thing missing now is a wok, so Zhu Xiaobao has to use a casserole to fry food. Of course, burning firewood is also a troublesome thing!
As Ji Zhihui said, Zhu Xiaobao has already made stinky tofu, his method of making stinky tofu is relatively unique, it is not particularly stinky, and the production time of stinky brine is not long, it only took a few days. In addition, Zhu Xiaobao also specially grinds the chili pepper into powder, and then pours it on it with boiling oil, which is called fragrant!
The two of them ate while frying it, sweating on their foreheads, and this time Ji Zhihan also brought a small jar of wine. It's hot, just in time to relieve the heat. Zhu Xiaobao felt that the degree of this wine was too low after taking a sip, no wonder ordinary people could drink several bowls in a row! I think that Wu Song drank the 'bottle incense' back then, that is, sixteen or seventeen degrees, and it took eighteen bowls to make Wu Song a little drunk!
"This thing is too low! Boring! Ji Zhihui drank another bowl, then wiped his mouth and said. He was originally an excellent drinker, and even the highest degree of wine he had never seen drunk! This is also Ji Tiancai's ability to cheat and cheat! Now it's still an extraordinary amount of alcohol!
"I think it's good, the degree is not high, although the taste is a little worse!" Zhu Xiaobao likes this kind of low-alcohol wine. Then Zhu Xiaobao asked again, "How is it?" Got it done? ”
"Hmmm! It's done, but I ran into the female guard of the Fourteenth Princess's Mansion! It's the one who blames you, surnamed Gao! also agreed with Wu Yue on the time of the competition, this time Wu Yue's horror is more than auspicious, so it's okay, she doesn't always bully you, this time someone will help you vent her evil anger! Ji Zhihan said heartlessly, he and Wu Yue have no friendship, of course, it is just a small talk!
"Huh? But compared to Wu Yue, I hate this high-speed rail flower even more! Look, the wound on my ass hasn't healed yet! But Zhu Xiaobao was nervous, although Wu Yue bullied him, he could be regarded as saving her, and now facing a life-and-death competition, Zhu Xiaobao is still a little worried!
"And how can you help? Someone can pick you up with one hand, unless you can make her a good knife! I saw it, that high guard didn't know anything else, the knife in her hand was much sharper than Wu Yue's, and she cut off Wu Yue's knife with one sword! So Wu Yue is probably crying at the princess now! Ji Zhihui shook his head and said with a smile, this kind of duel competition he and Zhu Xiaobao are both laymen, and Zhu Xiaobao doesn't know much kung fu at all! Although Ji Zhichen has also practiced martial arts since he was a child, he doesn't like to practice martial arts, so he knows how to embroider his legs.
Zhu Xiaobao didn't pay attention to Ji Zhihan, but he was looking down and thinking about something, but a cold snort came from the door: "Who do you say is crying at the princess?" ”
"Huh? Military...... Guards? Ji Zhihan had just put a piece of fried stinky tofu into his mouth, and his mouth was immediately hot, but he still quickly explained vaguely: "Wu Wu Wu...... Wu Guard, we are sorry for you! You see, if you can't match others with weapons, you'll have to lose, and maybe you'll have to lose arms and legs! So even if you cry for a while now, you can understand it! ”
"Humph! Tournament is the glory of the samurai! What do you know? Wu Yue looked at Ji Zhihui coldly and snorted.
"Then you have to do what you can, right? You'll throw in the towel! Your knife...... Forget it, don't talk about it, Wu Guard! Do you eat stinky tofu or not? It's delicious! Although Ji Zhichen was a little flustered, he still wanted to persuade Wu Yue to simply admit defeat by himself, but he stopped halfway through, because Wu Yue's eyes looked like he was going to kill him, so he quickly picked up a piece of stinky tofu and asked.
"Don't eat! You can eat such a stinky thing! I'll pass on the princess's words and ask you to go to the princess now and discuss the purchase of tea!" Wu Yue said impatiently.
"Yes, yes, yes! I'll go! Xiaobao, then I'll go first, I'll take this stinky tofu away! Ji Zhihui hurriedly got up and took away the rest of the fried stinky tofu with a bowl. When passing by Wu Yue, Ji Zhihui nodded and smiled. Wu Yue glanced at the stinky tofu in the bowl, it seemed that the taste was not so stinky, and the golden was quite tempting! Wu Yue couldn't help but have a conditioned reflex, and swallowed her saliva very angrily!
Ji Zhihan ran away, but this time Zhu Xiaobao was a little nervous, looked at Wu Yue, and asked weakly: "The matter between the two of us has been settled, don't look at me like that!" I do not like you! ”
After Zhu Xiaobao finished speaking, he hurriedly packed up his things, put away the remaining stinky tofu that had not yet been put into the pot, and wanted to slip away. This violent woman is really a little scary! Zhu Xiaobao was a little flustered and wanted to bypass Wu Yue's side. But Wu Yue stretched out a foot very covertly, and Zhu Xiaobao was tripped up!
But as soon as Zhu Xiaobao fell, it was Wu Yue who was unlucky, and all the stinky tofu in his hand was sprinkled on Wu Yue's feet, which hadn't been fried yet, and the smell was really stinky!
"You bastard!" Wu Yue suddenly kicked Zhu Xiaobao out with a furious kick!
"You tripped me! You can't get along with me! Zhu Xiaobao turned over and sat on the ground and said angrily.
"So what! I just can't get along with you! What can you do with me? Wu Yue clasped her arms with her hands at this time and walked over a little proudly.
The little treasures simply sat on the ground and did not get up. Knowing that he would still be knocked down by Wu Yue when he stood up, he simply raised his head and said, "Hmph! Isn't it great to bully someone who doesn't know martial arts? ”
Wu Yue's face was a little hot, and she still said with a cold face: "Who told you to talk without words, did you send the good tofu soup?" ”
"Phew! Whoever told you to cut off my trouser belt, you also saw my ass, and of course the tofu soup was automatically canceled! Zhu Xiaobao looked at Wu Yue and grinned, and couldn't help but think of that plump white and tender spanking again!
"You...... Look for death! Wu Yue was suddenly ashamed and angry, and stretched out her hand to pull out the knife, but she forgot that her knife was now only half of it!
"Wait! Wait a minute! This knife was cut by a high-speed iron flower, right? Zhu Xiaobao suddenly waved his hand and asked.
"Humph! You don't care! Wu Yue snorted impatiently, this is what she is most worried about now!
"Sister! You hate it, but I don't want you dead yet! I want the high-speed rail flower to die! Zhu Xiaobao said very seriously.
"Get out! Who's your sister! …… Wait, what do you say? ”
