Song Jiang and others said goodbye to the Kong brothers and went back to Qingfeng Mountain that night, Kong Ming and Kong Liang tried their best to stay, but the situation forced Song Jiang to leave.

Looking at the back of the master who was far away, Kong Ming remembered what Song Jiang had explained. Later, Kong Liang was responsible for trafficking chickens, pigs, cattle and sheep and other livestock to Qingfeng Mountain, and he paid the bill according to the order; Kong Ming is responsible for summoning some skilled talents, who can raise chickens, strike iron, and make tables and chairs...... As long as he has a skill, he must do it, especially those who people look down on and will be tricky, and he must be recruited and not let go.

Originally, Kong Ming and Kong Liang wanted to go to Qingfeng Mountain with Song Jiang, but Song Jiang rejected them, saying that they were now the brothers of Qingfeng Mountain, and doing what he explained was more important than staying on Qingfeng Mountain, and not going up the mountain was just a formality. And the princess is sick and bedridden, and the son can't be filial piety, and they will get together in the future.

This time, Qingfeng Mountain gained a lot, and the soldiers who went out to fight were elated to receive rewards, but this time there was also a problem that had not appeared before, that is, some soldiers were killed.

War is cruel, it is a game where you die or I die, sacrifice is inevitable, and there may be greater casualties in the future.

Song Jiang designated the sunny slope of Qingfeng Mountain as a martyr's cemetery, and the soldiers who died in battle were buried here, and worshiped on the fifteenth day of the first month.

The two soldiers who died this time were both runaways from home, and both had parents at home, and Song Jiang sent someone to send a pension of one hundred taels of silver to each of their parents. In order to avoid the old man's sadness, he said that his son had made money in business, and asked people to bring money to the family.

The wounded soldiers each had five taels of silver for recuperation, but fortunately, they were all slightly injured, and those who did not miss arms or legs were sent to the medical center for treatment. All two doctors in the medical department were brought by Professor Pan after the Chinese New Year.

What excites Song Jiang more than this victory is the results of the institute. On the basis of previous research, Tang Long evolved a kind of repeating crossbow, which can be loaded with ten short arrows at a time, can be fired in a burst or in a single shot, and has a light weight, and can be easily fired by one person and one crossbow.

Because of its mechanical device, the crossbow does not require much human arm strength and can effectively kill and injure enemies. Now that it has been tested, the next step is to prepare for mass production, allowing sergeants to practice increasing their repeater hit rate.

However, Song Jiang did not approve mass production, he still felt that it was defective, this crossbow loading arrow took too long, if you install an arrow box, you can continue to shoot after shooting the arrow and change the arrow box...... This is the Great Song version of the shell gun.

After the obscenity, Song Jiang knew that this proposal would keep Tang Long busy for a while.

Ling Zhen's grenade has also been successfully tested, but the volume is a bit large, you have to throw it with both hands after igniting the lead, and you can't throw it far, and it will affect your own people after the explosion, but it is very good to defend the city and defend the wall, and you can throw it down after igniting it.

Song Jiang asked Ling Zhen the reason, and Ling Zhen said that the explosive power of the gunpowder was not enough, so he had to add more gunpowder, so that the grenade would be large. Song Jiang immediately thought of the granular gunpowder, which was very powerful in the explosion, so he told Ling Zhen how to make the granular gunpowder, and said that he would work with him to develop it in a few days.

Ling Zhen didn't ask anything, just looked at Song Jiang with wide eyes as if he didn't believe it, his eyes were empty, he didn't know if he was thinking about the formula of granular gunpowder, or if he was thinking about whether Song Jiang was bragging that he could also develop gunpowder with himself?

Song Jiang, who was ignored, slandered again and again: "What's all the fuss, I'm a famous chemist, and after a while, I will make picric acid and use yellow explosives to make a weapon that is called powerful!" It's a pity that the scientific conditions don't allow it, otherwise I would have freed up T NT to play. ”

But Ling Zhen was still like that, and Song Jiang seemed to hear Ling Zhen saying, "What is a chemist?" Can you eat it? ”

As the saying goes, "Misfortune is not a single line, but blessing is incomparable." "However, Qingfeng Mountain is blessed with unparalleled blessings to this day, and the height of the shopkeeper Wu has finally been made.

Song Jiang and the leaders all tasted this high-grade wine, drinking the essence of the grain brewed from this pure grain, which was really comfortable. Compared with the wine blended with industrial alcohol in later generations, the wine brewed in Qingfeng Mountain now belongs to the elixir, and the excellent taste of cotton is sweet and mellow, which makes people want to stop, no wonder Li Bai wants to say "The Son of Heaven can't get on the boat, and he claims to be a fairy in the wine", and the heroes are greedy for a cup of drink.

Song Jiang warned everyone that the current wine is not as strong as the previous wine, this is strong, and it gets drunk quickly, even if Wu Erlang comes, he can't drink eighteen bowls.

Song Jiang also used a joke from later generations: This wine! It looks like water, drinks it until it is spicy in the mouth, drinks it until it is haunted in the stomach, stumbles when it walks, gets up in the middle of the night to find water, and wakes up in the morning and regrets it!

However, whoever listened to his admonition and drank slippery lips could not resist the temptation at all.

Song Jiang remained sober, and made good wine not to drink it for himself, but to sell it at a good price. So he found the shopkeeper Wu and told him his plan.

He wants to open a large shochu workshop in Qingfeng Town, named Wuliang Pulp Wine Workshop, and the wine brewed is called Wuliang Pulp.

According to the different degrees and manufacturing processes, the five-grain pulp is divided into several grades, divided into gold five-grain pulp, five-star, four-star, three-star five-grain pulp and ordinary five-grain pulp, so as to suit a variety of consumers at different levels. The wine is mainly sold in Luliuxiang Restaurant, which can not only play a good wine brand, but also promote the development of the catering industry. After the brand is established, the brewery is expanded, and the assembly line of later generations is used to make sake, and there is no fear that others will steal the sake-making method.

Shopkeeper Wu is the shopkeeper of the winery, the company commander is treated, and leads a platoon of sergeants to work in the winery. The shopkeeper Wu is responsible for the manufacture of wine and the management of the winery, and the sales are started by Shi Yong first, and after the scale is expanded, a special sales department is set up.

After drawing the grand plan, the shopkeeper Wu did not have a trace of Song Jiang's joy, he promised: "This may not be as Brother Song intended, making wine is very simple, but selling wine is much more complicated, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will be arrested and imprisoned by the yamen." ”

Now Qingfeng Mountain, young and old, have a name for Song Jiang, that is, Brother Song, as if this is not an honorific title, but a nickname. Now Song Jiang is too lazy to say that you are so old, I should call you uncle or something, let it go, and let them call it.

So when he heard the shopkeeper Wu call him Brother Song, he was not surprised at all, the strange thing was that the wine he made was sold, it seemed that he had to be sneaky, and the government still had to arrest him, and there was no smuggling! What the hell is this?

"Shopkeeper Wu, what's going on? Didn't I hear clearly, making my own wine for sale, breaking the law? Didn't you also sell alcohol in the past, why is it legal for you to sell alcohol, but it is illegal for me to sell alcohol? ”

"This ......? Brother Song has stayed in the Yamen, does he know less than the old man? ”

"After killing Yan Poxi, I fled in a panic, and after I fell, I forgot many things."

Song Jiang casually lied to cover up and said, "I still hope that the shopkeeper Wu will talk about it carefully!" ”

"I see! I thought Brother Song was taking the school entrance examination just now! ”

The shopkeeper Wu said: "I am under the official control of the liquor industry, and any liquor industry must be bought and operated, otherwise it will be regarded as illegal." Officially, it is not illegal to drink it privately, but it is illegal to sell it. The official allowed private wineries, but they also had to buy puffs, and the puffs that the old man used to buy were rural wine households, which could only be sold in the countryside, and were not allowed to sell wine in cities across the border. Brother Song's wine is sold in the city, so he has to go to the state capital to buy it, and he can only sell wine in the entire Qingzhou, and he must not cross the line. If you want to sell these five grain pulps in the entire Great Song Dynasty, it is very difficult, you have to work up and down, and there must be high-ranking officials in the capital who can cover it. Fortunately, since the reign of Emperor Daojun, the wine industry has also relaxed a lot, as long as you are willing to spend money, your wish can still be realized......"

After intermittently inquiring for nearly two hours, Song Jiang understood what this buying and selling business meant. No wonder the Northern Song Dynasty can become a very wealthy dynasty in history, and the official commodity economy consciousness is too strong, isn't this the liquor monopoly policy of later generations?

Buying is to buy the official business license, and sometimes the way of bidding is implemented, and the highest bidder is given, which is really intriguing! Could it be that a later generation of economists traveled to the Northern Song Dynasty?

After understanding the buying and selling system, Song Jiang also suddenly understood, anyway, silver can smash a way, no matter what to buy and not to buy, what system is a blank sheet of paper in front of corrupt officials.

In his busy time, Song Jiang selected fifty sergeants with a future in archery and handed them over to Hua Rong to train in archery, and then use them for assassination or something.

Kongjiazhuang also sent a lot of cattle, sheep, chickens and ducks, and at the same time sent five people who raised livestock, four carpenters, three doctors and two veterinarians, all of whom knew the roots of the poor people in the village.

Song Jiang made arrangements one by one, and the personnel who raised the livestock were immediately arranged to the farm, and the doctor was arranged to the medical center, and the doctor brought by Professor Pan last time treated the people of Qingfeng Mountain, and the veterinarian was subordinate to the medical center, which was specially responsible for treating the livestock and military horses on the farm, and the carpenter was assigned to the arsenal to make weapons.

And say that no matter who does an excellent job in his position, or puts forward creative suggestions and practical ideas, once verified, he will be rewarded.
