The leaders of Zhangjiazhai were well fed and drunk, and were arranged in the front yard guest room. Li Mu's mansion is large, but there are few people and there are many empty houses. It is more than enough to accommodate Zhangjiazhai and his party, and so many people can live there.

It was late at night, but none of the leaders could sleep. What is happening today has stimulated their nerves. Three thousand yuan, eight hundred taels of silver, stewed mutton in a small pot, mutton soup boiled in a large pot, roasted whole sheep on an iron frame, Li Chongyi's inseparable giant axe, and the three cups of poured tonight. Any one of them has opened the eyes of these dirt buns who have lived on the border for a long time.

That's how a husband should be!

"Lao Hu," the one who spoke in a strange way opened his mouth, his surname was Li, his name was Li Yi, he was a leader of Zhangjiazhai, and his brother was a leader of Zhangjiazhai.

Zhangjiazhai has seven surnames: Hu, Li, Zhou, Jiang, Qian, Zhao, and Zhang, and the Zhang family is the owner of the village, and the remaining six surnames each have a leader, and there are several leaders under the leader. It is stipulated in the village that ten people are a gang, and each group is a leader. The number of leaders owned by each surname varies, such as the Hu family, which has seven leaders, while the Zhou family, which has only three, and the rest of the families are also between four or five. Don't underestimate these dozens of people, you must know that this refers to the young people who can go on horses to fight, and a surname can produce forty or fifty young people, which is already very prosperous in the sparsely populated Longyou.

There are more than 2,000 people in Zhangjiazhai, all of whom rely on these people for protection.

"What for?" The kid of the Li family has always spoken in a weird way, and everyone doesn't care much about him, but when he goes out, he is one, and it should not be said that it is not appropriate.

"I think...... Our eldest lady, with that Hou Ye, they ...... I can't tell! ”

"Do you think too? I thought so too! Before Lao Hu could answer, the person next to him rushed to say.

Longyou is desolate, and everyone has no entertainment except for going out of the village to do 'trading' when they go into the city. Even if they enter the city, the so-called entertainment is the little thing about men and women in the final analysis, and this kind of fragrant gossip can arouse their interest the most.

Lao Hu was older than them, and he was already past the age of excitement when he mentioned this kind of thing, and when he heard the words, he said: "What nonsense, how can there be anything, didn't you hear what Hou Ye said, is he trying to repay his kindness?" ”

"Why don't I believe it, tell me, what kind of kindness is worth more than 3,000? More than 3,000 can't fit a single ox cart. If Lao Tzu had so much money, the big girl with yellow flowers could buy thousands of them, our eldest lady was very good-looking, but that temper was a man, what did she do when she married a family? Skins tight looking for a hit? ”

Someone laughed and interjected: "Maybe this Marquis of Chang'an City is just like this, maybe I can't say!" ”

"Idle ...... Go to bed early, and I'll go to the West Market tomorrow to buy food. ”

The old nonsense said and went quiet. After a while, everyone still didn't fall asleep. One person spoke: "Lao Hu, we haven't drunk enough of this wine today." It doesn't cost much to buy food, or let's talk to Master Hou, before leaving, let's buy some wine to take back, and give it to the leaders of each family to taste, what do you think? ”

Lao Hu squinted his eyes and said, "Don't think about beautiful things, didn't you listen to the porter just now?" This wine comes out of 200 jars every day, and today is the Hou Ye in front of the eldest lady, and we will try it. The nobles in Chang'an City are not enough, and you still want to buy ...... Is it your turn? ”

"It's not like we don't give money! You also said that the eldest lady has face, if you don't ask the eldest lady to help talk about it, I don't want much, just twenty altars. ”

"Twenty altars?" Lao Hu sneered and said, "Are you really willing, three times a jar of money, and you can drink it?" Buy one or two jars and bring them back to your head to taste, buy so many ......"

"I just want to buy twenty jars, if you don't buy it, forget it, I'll tell the eldest lady myself."

At this time, Li Yi Yin and Yang spoke strangely, and said: "Old Hu, be obedient and listen to the sound, I see that you are old and confused, he wants to drink it himself, he wants to do business!" ”

"Buying and selling?"

As soon as these words came out, the ears of all the leaders pricked up. can be the leader, no one lacks a heart. Listening to Li Yi's yin and yang weirdness, he immediately understood. That's right, do business!

It's really expensive to get three money and one jar, but who is the score for? Ordinary people naturally think it is expensive, but from Longyou to the west, there are Xue Yantuo and Gaochang, and to the southwest, there are Tuyuhun and Tubo, those kings, nobles, slave owners, but there is money.

When doing the fur business, the horse bandits in Zhangjiazhai had also come into contact with a lot of caravans from these places, so they knew some of the situation over there, and they only needed to contact these caravans, and they could sell three cups at a sky-high price!

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that there was a play, and several people sat up, looked at each other, and all nodded heavily.

Lao Hu said: "Tomorrow, let's go to the eldest lady together, even if we show this old face, we have to buy a car." If the Hou Ye is gracious, what kind of skin will we sell in the future, just reselling this wine, we will make a fortune! ”

"That's right! Let's go! ”

Several people high-fived as an alliance, and the plan was decided. I still have the heart to sleep, I am staring at a pair of bull's eyes, looking forward to the dawn soon.

Not far from where they lived, it was Li Mu's studio, and the lights were still on at this time. Li Chongyi was lying on the straw mat and snoring like thunder, Li Mu yawned and put aside the 'primary armor piece' that he had just completed in his hand.

This is the thirtieth 'primary armor piece' he has completed tonight, and when he completes this one, the item name changes from red to yellow, which means that if he continues to do it, he will not necessarily increase his skill proficiency point. Li Mu learned the pattern of the 'primary leather bracer', then blew out the candle, woke up Li Chongyi, and asked him to go back to his room to sleep, and he himself lay down in the room next door to the studio.

Practicing skills is a boring thing, even if there is enough money now, but the necessary time will still be consumed. Moreover, Li Mu still didn't look down on the items made by the primary skills, and after making these armor pieces, he didn't know where to arrange them, so it was a pity to throw them away. But with ...... It's really not much of a use.

This armor piece, the description on the pattern says that the armor piece can be sewn into the clothing to strengthen the defense. Li Mu's understanding is that this thing can be sewn into the inside of the clothes, so that when someone cuts it or stabs it, it can play a protective role. Just like if he was assassinated here, if there was such a piece of armor on his buttocks, the dagger thrown by the water snake's waist would not be able to pierce it. This thing is made of three layers of cowhide, and the degree of sturdiness is still okay.

But in Li Mu's opinion, this thing is somewhat impractical. The dignified marquis has two armor pieces sewn on his buttocks, is this like words? Don't talk about whether it's beautiful or not, it's panicked where to sit. If you are marching and fighting, getting a piece of this thing can do some good......

Suddenly, Li Mu's eyes lit up, yes! This thing can be given to the army! When he returned to Chang'an with Li Ji's army, he saw the clothes of the soldiers. Except for the elite cavalry and the Modao team, the armor on the rest of the soldiers was very rudimentary, most of them did not even have half-body armor, and if these armor pieces were provided to them, they would definitely be able to play a certain role.

Of course, these thirty armor pieces are a drop in the bucket, but what if they form a scale? What if a munitions factory could be set up?

"It's kind of interesting......" Li Mu thought for a while, sleepiness hit, wrapped the quilt tightly and fell asleep.

Following.

Early in the morning, several leaders found Zhang Tianai and told him what he thought. Zhang Tianai didn't want to agree, because Li Mu had already helped a lot, she was embarrassed to speak, but these people pressed hard, she really had no choice, so she mentioned it at breakfast, thinking that if Li Mu agreed, she would agree, if not, it would be like that.

It's also a coincidence, Li Mu has long intended to develop the unexpected market in Chang'an, and it is a good thing to let the people of Zhangjiazhai bring some fame first. As soon as Zhang Tianai said, he agreed, but there was a limit to the quantity, each family only sold ten jars, and he also gave Zhang Tianai twenty jars, saying that it was for her father to taste, so that it would be eighty jars of wine.

Based on the current supply and demand situation of the Bashang Wine Workshop, the quota of eighty jars of wine was suddenly squeezed out, and according to the rules set by Li Mu, he had to come forward in person. It just so happened that Li Mugang had just come up with the 'Zhuangyuan Hong' and was about to go to the winery, so he asked Lao Hu to bring an ox cart and follow him to the Bashang winery. Others let Ergou take him to the West Market to buy grain.

After going out of the city gate, crossing the Baqiao, and after traveling less than a few miles, I saw one after another ox carts in front of me. Li Mu hadn't been to Bashang Wine Shop for a few days, and he was also shocked to see such a scene. He led people past the queue when suddenly a man in front of him blocked the way.

"Stop, stop!"

Li Mu grabbed the reins and looked down at this person, who had a pig's waist face, extremely ugly, but looked shrewd. Li Mu didn't know what he was doing, and asked, "Something?" ”

"You're from out of town? Don't know the rules? ”

Li Mu frowned slightly and said, "What rules?" ”

I saw this person snort and said, "There are a number of wines in the Bashang Wine Shop every day, first come, first served, and you have to queue up to buy wine." If you don't want to queue up, you have to have a wine ticket, do you know what a wine ticket is? ”

Li Mu really didn't know, and asked curiously, "What is a wine ticket?" ”

"Let you see and understand." The pig's waist face took out a piece of paper from his arms and unfolded it to Li Mu, on which a wine jar was drawn, and there were five fingerprints in the middle of the wine jar. The pig's waist smiled smugly and said, "Do you see these five fingerprints?" This represents the five altars of wine, and there is no need to queue up with this wine ticket. Go to the place where you get the wine, give the wine ticket to the steward, and you can get the wine after paying the money. After speaking, the pig's waist face stretched out his hand and gestured: "Five altars and one wine ticket, the price is always the same!" ”

After listening to the explanation of the pig's waist face, Li Mu knew in his heart where this thing came from. Forcibly suppressed the anger and said, "Whose fingerprints are this, does it work, don't you fool me, right?" ”

"Who's?" Hearing this, the pig's waist face smiled, and his voice rose in vain: "Saying it scares you to death, Zhulu Hou has heard it, his wife's surname is Bai, right?" This fingerprint is the fingerprint of the old man Bai Chunbai, the father-in-law of the Hou of Zhulu, do you say it works? ”
