Returning to the temporary accommodation arranged for him, Xi Zhicai sighed a lot about what he saw and heard today.

For being invited to participate in the meeting of the development plan of Shanzhai in the next few years, Xi Zhicai was very anxious. I was not only moved by Guo Bin's trust, but also secretly appreciated his upright and upright style. At the meeting, Xi Zhicai didn't say a word, just observing everyone.

Tong Yuan is a martial arts master, and he doesn't pay much attention to the development of cottages; Although Zhao Yun is Guo Bin's senior brother, he seems to have a lot of respect for this junior brother, and whenever Guo Bin speaks, he always listens carefully and thinks carefully. And as far as we know, the reason why these thirty young men were able to go deep into the mountains in groups of five was certainly related to Guo Bin's stabbing technique, but the actual guidance and team leadership were all presided over by Zhao Yun, who seemed to be a wise general with both civil and military skills.

Guan Hai regards himself as Guo Bin's slave, he is upright, and he worships Guo Bin almost unconditionally, although he is not very smart, when he encounters problems, he can often come up with some local methods, and he came up with the method of digging deep ditches to build rabbit nests.

As for Guo Quan, he is a big ghost. At a young age, the official addiction is not small, and the meeting will take on the heavy responsibility of picking grapes. Maybe because they grew up together since they were children and know their roots, they are very convinced of the two brothers Guo Bin and Guo Jia, but they seem to be quite jealous of Guo Jia. That's right, Guo Bin's younger brother Guo Jia, although he is young, he is very reliable, and he is also knowledgeable, and he is quite anxious. If you meet a famous teacher and guide the law, the development prospects are limitless.

Regarding Guo Bin, although Xi Zhicai can't see it thoroughly, he also summed up three views: benevolence and righteousness are unparalleled, broad-minded, and outstanding.

The first is benevolence and righteousness, just look at his ability to resolutely lead 300 old and weak women and children to start a business, so that they can have something to eat. The second is to be broad-minded and listen to everyone's opinions in everything, which is not just as simple as being good at accepting advice. This listens to everyone's opinions, one is to understand what everyone thinks, so the way they come up can take into account everyone; Second, you can open up your own thinking, and the so-called listening is clear; Third, it can make everyone feel that they are valued, make people work very energetically, and can also buy people's hearts. It's just that there are many people who understand by listening, but there are not many people who have this mind.

In addition, Guo Bin is very talented, just to see that he can rely on his own strength, he will solve the problem of eating the 300 people who have to pretend to be thieves to borrow food, and look at dinner, everyone has meat and vegetables, this talent is really admirable. Although there are few young and strong people in the cottage, they are all strong in martial arts, and they act in imitation of military orders in the village, which is quite orderly. Listening to the discussion tonight, the soap industry is very profitable, enough to provide food and clothing for everyone. And I have to raise livestock and make wine, which is a big family business.

If we let Guo Bin know that Xi Zhicai commented on himself like this, it is estimated that he will be able to wake up with a smile in his dreams at night. He was clearly lazy, and he knew that all the people present were heroes from the late Han Dynasty, so he let everyone play freely in a clumsy mentality.

Thinking of this, Xi Zhicai said secretly: "Now that the land annexation is important, and the court does not know how to be compassionate, plus the eunuchs and relatives are chaotic. In a year of disaster, if ambitious people climb the heights and shout, I am afraid that the respondents will gather. The troubled times are coming, and how to survive seems to be going to fall on Guo Bin's head. ”

Thinking of this, it is natural to stand on Guo Bin's position and think about the problem. The soap industry is a big deal, although it can ensure that everyone does not have to worry about food and clothing, but it is necessary to prevent being robbed by the wealthy families, it seems that after a period of time, Guo Bin should be reminded to make good use of this luxury to make friends with the powerful. In addition, you can also use the marketing of soap to gather information and promote the name of benevolence. Livestock can be fed and clothed, so that the young and strong can be strengthened, and the children can grow up. That's all there is to say about sake brewing.

Naturally, it can be sold to the outside world, and the profit should not be under the soap industry. The greater use is that it can be used to store grain. You think, generally speaking, you need food to make wine, but how much grain you put in, how much wine you put out, that's what you say. You can hoard grain in the name of brewing, and when the troubled times come, this grain hoarding is a mountain of gold, which is the greatest guarantee for the troubled times. In addition, restaurants can also be opened in the county, county, and even Luoyang City, one to sell their own wine, and the other can be used to collect intelligence and transmit information.

Thinking of this, Xi Zhicai sat up excitedly, and thought in his heart: "I am only fifteen years old, the layout is so exquisite, and my thoughts are so far-reaching, it is rare to still value me so much, and this is the true master." ”

Xi Zhicai was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night, but the next morning he heard the noise outside, so he put on his clothes with two giant panda eyes and came out in front of the village in the direction where the sound came. Passing through the canteen, I saw a group of women busy preparing meals, but the old people who got up early and slept little were already doing some work before breakfast.

When I came to the gate of the village, I saw Tong Yuan standing in the middle of the clearing, looking at the crowd led by Guo Bin and smiling. Guo Bin was the leader, followed by Zhao Yun, Guo Jia, Guo Quan, Guan Hai and a group of thirty young and strong children in the village were running in circles around the open space. A group of young and strong people lined up in a row of five people in six columns. In addition, the forty or fifty children are also in good order under the leadership of Guo Quan.

Guo Bin shouted the trumpet while running, "One-two-one, one-two-one......" Everyone walked in the same step in this trumpet. Guo Bin often shouted at the pace: "One, two, three, four." When they heard this, they shouted in unison. Although there are less than 100 people, more than half of them are children, but they seem to have the power of thousands of troops.

Seeing this scene, Xi Zhicai stood at the gate of the village and muttered: "This is the foundation of the troubled times, this is the foundation of the troubled times...... I was stunned for a while.

It turned out that Guo Bin knew that the troubled times were coming, and being strong and healthy was the foundation of survival, so he brought the habit of going to school in his previous life and running morning exercises when he was a soldier to the present. Tong Yuan and Zhao Yun, the two masters, have to get up early every day to work hard and boil their bones, and Guo Bin naturally has to practice after apprenticeship.

At first, everyone watched the excitement, and a group of naughty boys shouted around Guo Bin. Guo Bin was irritable, so he asked Qingzhuang to take the group when hunting, line up and follow him, and he took it to practice with Tong Yuan in the morning after running; and let Guo Quan be the king of children, and organized a group of naughty children to run together, Guo Quan, the official fan, was so happy that he was playing prestige.

Guo Jia didn't want to participate, but he was ruthlessly dragged out of the warm quilt by Guo Bin every day, and forced him to participate in running exercises on the grounds of exercising. I didn't expect to run for a month, but I couldn't let it go, and I felt uncomfortable if I didn't run a few laps a day. After that, Guo Bin simply organized everyone and used the rules of the army in later generations to demand everyone, in order to enhance everyone's physical fitness, in fact, it was also to satisfy the bad taste of a certain veteran.

Everyone was still a little uncomfortable at first, and that's how they persevered. After all, Guo Bin cares about your food and drink, and lets you line up to run two laps in the morning, where is there any reason to refuse, and people are still trying to improve your physical fitness.

Seeing that Xi Zhi had just come out, Guo Bin motioned to Zhao Yun to lead everyone to continue, and glared at Guo Quan, who was about to slip away, a few more times before leaving the team and walking towards him.

Xi Zhicai saw Guo Bin coming over, and saluted: "What is Brother Guo doing this morning?" ”

Guo Bin felt a little embarrassed for his bad taste, and said, "Uh... Haha, take the sons and daughters to loosen their muscles and bones and do morning exercises. As he spoke, he laughed to hide his embarrassment.

Immediately, looking at Xi Zhicai's two panda eyes, he politely asked a few words such as whether he slept well last night, and chatted a few more words, and everyone finished their morning exercise and went to the village. When they passed by the village, they all smiled and asked: "The lord is good, Mr. Xi is good." Guo Bin saw that the two were in the way, so he went to the dining hall with Xi Zhicai and others.

After breakfast, Guo Quanzao led his boy scouts to pick grapes under the protection of a team of young people. They were accompanied by dozens of elderly people who had gone to clear the roads and build fences to protect the vineyards. Zhao Yun took a team of people to set traps to catch rabbits, and Guan Hai led a few people to dig in a corner of the downwind of the cottage, preparing to build a rabbit nest. Tong Yuan went to the stable in person to take care of the beloved horse he and Zhao Yun rode when they came.

Guo Jia instructed the two teams who returned to Guojiazhuang today to bring a letter to Guo Yong, entrusting him to buy the wine jar on his behalf, and went with Xi Zhicai to see Guo Bin making wine.

In his previous life, there was a grape vine in Guo Bin's family, and it produced a lot of grapes every year, but it was too sour to eat. So his mother would pick the grapes every year and wash them to make wine, and Guo Bin once secretly drank the wine made by his mother: the entrance is mellow, and the degree is about twenty or thirty degrees.

Guo Bin first ordered the grapes to be cleaned and dried, and then the skin was crushed and thrown into a clay pot that had already been washed. When he saw that the jar contained about two-thirds of the grapes, he scooped the crushed starch sugar with a clean wooden spoon and poured it in, so he ordered the mouth of the jar to be sealed with a fine linen cloth, spread a piece of rice paper on it, and rub it with a mixture of mud to seal it. In the previous life, the mother always had to put white sugar into it to help it ferment, but under the current conditions, because it is simple, it can only be replaced by crushed starch syrup.

After making a can, Guo Bin ordered someone to move it into the warehouse and put it in the corner that had already been cleaned up, and then instructed everyone to continue to make it. After seeing that everyone was doing well, he led Guo Jia Xizhi and the two of them to slip out, which is a habit of letting go of the shopkeeper.

Suddenly, about a month passed. Everyone is busy, and only the Guo Bin brothers and Xi Zhicai are three idlers wandering around in the cottage. At noon on this day, the three of them walked out of the village after eating, came to the stream, and listened to the sound of gurgling water. The play is admired. ”

Guo Jia's little face was full of pride when he heard this, but Guo Bin said modestly: "Brother Zhicai praised it falsely, and it was everyone's hard work. ”

Xi Zhicai nodded and said, "Everyone has no food and clothing, and they survived thanks to the talent of Brother Guo. It's just that I see that there are still five hidden dangers in the cottage, and if you don't take precautions early, this great industry may not be able to last long. ”
