Yang Wu didn't know at this moment that there was a little girl beside him who had already made up her mind to marry him, and he was still waiting for Fan Yu to find out, but fortunately, he didn't wait long for Fan Yu to come back. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Have you inquired clearly, does he live next to the Liu Family Inn mentioned earlier?"

"Yes, Childe. has already found out, he lives in a small courtyard next to the Liu Family Inn in the east of the city. ”

Yang Liu next to her listened to it and said secretly in her heart, "Sure enough, there is a favorite woman, and I even asked where I live", thinking of this, she looked at Yang Wu with a hint of resentment.

Xiao Cui shook her head and cast a sympathetic look at her, saying that she couldn't help herself.

"Who else is in the family?"

"He's the only one living here."

Yang Liu was a little puzzled, "How can a woman live alone in Guangling, this is too unsafe, can the family rest assured?" Or is there no other family member? "Come to think of this. She began to feel some sympathy for the girl.

"Does he have any likes on weekdays?" Yang Wu continued to ask.

"This, it is said that in addition to his love of reading, he also likes to drink, especially the stronger wine, it is said that he has to drink a little every day."

"Are you sure so? I really can't see that he likes to drink. ”

"The small one can be determined," Fan Yu said with great certainty.

Yang Liu was even more puzzled, "Is there still a girl who likes to drink spirits, I heard that there are some bitter cold places in the north, the winter is too cold, in order to keep warm, many women love to drink spirits, does the son like a girl from the north?" She couldn't be sure for a moment.

"Looks like we're going to have to find a way to get some good wine." Yang Wu nodded and said, "Do you know where you can get good wine now?" ”

"This, if it's an ordinary good wine, is available in the house. If it's the best wines, it's hard to find. ”

Hearing this, Yang Liu couldn't hold back any longer, frowned and asked, "Childe, although that girl loves to drink, there is no reason to go to the door with wine for the first time, right?" ”

"Girl? What girl? Yang Wu looked puzzled.

Wasn't you talking about Chen Yanqian just now? How did you talk about the girl?

"Didn't Childe just say that he was going to see a girl? Even inquired about where she lived and who was in the family, as well as her preferences. Yang Liu was also a little puzzled.

"Hahaha......"

Yang Wu and Fan Yu glanced at each other and laughed out loud.

"It's really laughing at me, where did you think of Yang Liu? Haha......"

"That's right, Miss Yangliu, Childe met someone on the road today, and after some conversation, he felt very close to him, so he decided to find a time to visit again. So let the little one inquire about the situation first. Fan Yu tried to hold back a smile and explained.

At that moment, he told her about meeting Chen Yanqian today, and Yang Liu knew that he had made a big joke, and he blushed for a while, and quickly covered it with his sleeve, and he didn't know where he ran away.

"I won't be able to see anyone in the future!"

Yang Liu, who was hiding, carried forward the spirit of the ostrich, buried his head in the quilt, left his body outside, and said sullenly.

A few people outside couldn't stop laughing, and after some laughter, Yang Wu asked again, "I heard him say that he was a little official in Runzhou, what is the specific situation?" ”

"This, I heard that he is the Sicang of Runzhou, who came to Guangling to deliver money and grain, and has been living in Guangling for almost a month."

Why is that? It shouldn't take a month to deliver money and food, right? ”

"Gongzi doesn't know, the money and grain handed over by the states to Guangling could have been handled quickly, but if anyone wants to embarrass him, it is normal for this matter to drag on for a long time."

"I see." Yang Wu nodded.

He has also heard that the so-called "Hades is easy to provoke, and the little ghosts are difficult". For the officials from various local states and counties who come to Guangling to do business, those officials in the Jiedu Embassy are just difficult little ghosts, and if they don't give them enough benefits, they will find ways to make things difficult. Even some state assassins with great power may be asked for finances in Guangling; What's more, Chen Yanqian is just a petty official, and it is not surprising that he was made difficult by others.

However, although he knew this situation, Yang Wu had no intention of asking. He also counted on Chen Yanqian to stay in Guangling for a long time, so that it would be convenient for him to make good friends; If he had helped Chen Yanqian finish his errand early, and as a result, he would have to ask for his own hardships when he went back to Runzhou.

"The little one also heard that the envoy of Runzhou was proud of his martial arts and had always looked down on the scribes. Mr. Chen is known for his talent in Runzhou, and he is diligent in government affairs, but unfortunately he is too straightforward, so he is not reused, and he is only an eight-grade Sicang to join the army. ”

After hearing this, Yang Wu was even more relieved. If Chen Yanqian is reused now, he is afraid that it will take a lot of effort to recruit him; But now, it's a lot easier.

"Well, any other news?"

"That's all for now."

"It's hard work, you go down and rest first!" Yang Wu nodded.

After sending Fan Yu away, he pondered alone, "Chen Yanqian has just been separated here, and it is too eager to go to him in the afternoon, it is better to wait until tomorrow to prepare some good wine and then visit." ”

When he thought of good wine, he suddenly thought of distilled spirits.

"In other words, distilled liquor is a must for every person who travels through, as long as it is made, it must be strong enough, and it is enough to make Chen Yanqian love it. And once successful, it may become an important source of income in the future, and it can be used for disinfection at the worst. ”

In every battle, far fewer people are killed on the spot than wounded, but a large number of wounded soldiers often die after the battle because they are not properly disinfected. If there is enough high alcohol disinfection, it is thought that the loss of soldiers can be greatly reduced in this aspect.

The basic principles of distilled liquor are not difficult, but it is not so easy to actually make them, Yang Wu did not have enough time to experiment slowly, nor did he have relevant experience, so he had to find a master who cooked liquor and introduced some of the relevant principles to him.

"Isn't this just soju?"

Who knew that the brewing master actually understood it as soon as he heard it, and also mentioned that the method of distilling liquor has been around for a long time, but the brewed wine is not good and has a miscellaneous smell, so it has not become popular.

"I see, I said that since there have been distilled spirits for a long time, why have I never seen them on the market. Now that you know what the problem is, is there a way to solve it? ”

"This, I'm afraid it's difficult." The master of the wine boil looked embarrassed.

"If you have any requirements, I will try my best to satisfy you as long as I can do it."

"The small ones need a lot of wine to experiment, and the small ones need enough time." The sake chef also made a request very simply.

"No problem, as long as you succeed in making a distilled spirit that satisfies me, I will not be stingy with the reward."

After sending the brewmaster down, he began to think, "It seems that it is impossible to count on making distilled spirits in a short time. However, Chen Yanqian only needs some good wine, but he is not in a hurry. ”

I didn't think about it anymore, but it happened that my brother came to pester him to tell him a story, and he turned around and went back to the house to accompany his brother.

The next morning, Yang Wu asked Fan Yu to bring two jars of good wine and rode his horse to Chen Yanqian's residence in the east of the city.

As soon as he arrived at the Liujia Inn, Fan Yu pointed to a small courtyard next to him and said, "That courtyard is where Mr. Chen lives." ”

Yang Wu nodded, stepped forward, slammed the courtyard door, and asked in a loud voice, "Is Brother Chen at home?" ”

There was no movement in the courtyard for a long time.

Yang Wu asked a few more times, but there was still no movement in the courtyard.

At this time, Fan Yu stepped forward, slapped the courtyard door hard, and asked loudly, "Is anyone there?" ”

At this time, the courtyard door opened half of it with a "squeak", and a boy in Tsing Yi stretched out half of his body with an unhappy face, yawned and said, "Who are you looking for?" It's okay, don't disturb people's sleep! ”

Yang Wu smiled and said, "We are looking for Mr. Chen Yanqian Chen, I don't know if he is here?" ”

"You said the surname Chen? I went out early in the morning, and I don't know what I'm going to do, so you can wait for him to come back! I went to bed first. As soon as the boy finished speaking, he closed the door with a "bang", and Fan Yu was so angry that he kicked the courtyard door a few times, and shouted and cursed a few words, but the courtyard door was never opened again.

Yang Wu smiled dumbly, he didn't expect to come out early in the morning, but he touched a closed door.

"Childe, what do you think we should do now?"

"Leave one person here and wait, let's go around!"

After crossing into this era, Yang Wu has not yet felt the prosperity of Yangzhou.

Yangzhou has always been famous for its prosperity in ancient times, where the Yangtze River meets the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal. Since the opening of the Grand Canal by Emperor Yang of the former Sui Dynasty, it has become the center of north-south exchanges. Although it was devastated by the Sun Confucian Rebellion more than ten years ago, it has been re-developed as the seat of the Huainan Jiedu envoy for more than ten years.

Walking on the street, there is an endless stream of pedestrians with different looks. On both sides of the street, all kinds of small stalls are full of objects, and the voices of merchants are coming and going. It's hard to imagine that this place was in ruins a decade ago.

Feeling the lively atmosphere completely different from the streets of the metropolis in the future, Yang Wu looked around with interest.

"How do you sell this bamboo horse?" Looking at the gadget made of bamboo in front of him, Yang Wu couldn't help but think of his naughty younger brother. Although this bamboo horse is of average workmanship, it is exquisite, and its limbs and horse capital can be moved, if it is given to his younger brother, he will definitely like it.

"Five cents, no, ten cents." The merchant saw that Yang Wu looked like the son of a big family, so he couldn't help but raise the price.

Yang Wu didn't care, thinking of the other younger brothers and sisters, he chose a few other gadgets on the stall and bought them together.

"By the way, there are also Yang Jing and Yang Wen, and I want to buy them some small gifts."

Yang Wen is his fourteen-year-old sister, she is the opposite of Yang Jing's personality, she is usually the most quiet and does not talk much. However, her relationship with Yang Wu is far less intimate than that of Yang Jing.

"Yang Jing is now in time, and Yang Wen is also soon. Women love beauty, so it's better to buy them some trinkets. Thinking of this, Yang Wu began to wander around again.

Soon, I saw a small shop specializing in all kinds of women's jewelry.

Yang Wu was about to step into the store, but saw a delicate and elegant girl walking out of the store.

This girl is about fourteen or fifteen years old, her eyebrows are crooked, her small nose is slightly upturned, her face is like white jade, her face is like a morning flower, and her black hair is draped on her finely shaved shoulders.

Even if I was used to seeing all kinds of beauties on the Internet in later generations, it was the first time I saw such a beautiful girl in reality. At the moment when the two of them staggered, Yang Wu couldn't help but blurt out praise, "The hands are like soft wattles, and the skin is like clotted fat." The collar is like a grub, and the teeth are like a rhinoceros. Frog moth eyebrows. Clever smile, beautiful eyes. ”

The girl's face turned red, her beautiful eyes flowed, she glanced at Yang Wu, and walked out of the shop quickly.

"Dengzi!" A light scream woke Yang Wu up, but he saw a little girl in green in front of him staring at him with her waist crossed. This little girl has a slightly round face, a pair of big eyes that are dark and shiny, although she is staring, she looks a little playful and cute. "Who are you? How dare you offend my girl? ”

Yang Wu then remembered that this was an ancient time, and it was very rude to praise someone's beauty in front of a strange girl's family, and if you didn't do it, you would be regarded as a hooligan.

"I'm sorry I lost my word."

Yang Wu hurriedly apologized, "The so-called 'everyone has a love for beauty', it's really your girl who is so beautiful, sinking fish and geese, closing the moon and embarrassing flowers, I can't help it in my heart, so I praise it." ”

He still had to explain, but the more he explained, the more chaotic it became, and the little girl was angry, "You, you, you still say!" ”

Yang Wu hurriedly stopped and arched his hand, "I'm sorry!" ”

"Let me tell you, my lord is a general, and he has tens of thousands of soldiers. Watch out for me to get you in jail! The little girl threatened viciously.

"Ping'er, hurry up. We're going back! At this moment, a crisp and pleasant voice came from outside the store.

"Got it, I'll come!" The little girl replied reluctantly, and glanced at Yang Wu viciously, and then turned around and walked out of the shop.

Yang Wu looked outside, but saw three or five guards surrounded by a beautifully decorated carriage.

The jade face in front of the car window was the girl just now. A pair of beautiful eyes were looking in the direction of the shop, and just happened to meet Yang Wu's gaze, she hurriedly stretched out her jade hand to lower the curtain on the car window.

Ping'er walked forward quickly, boarded the carriage, and was in

Surrounded by guards, he slowly left.
