――――――――――――――――――――
Baiyue is a wilderness!
At least that's what it looks like in the eyes of many...... For the old Qin people who grew up in the northwest, Baiyue is just a concept, what does it look like? Many people can't tell. I only know that there is a group of uncivilized barbarians there.
The First Emperor will definitely send someone to investigate.
But this doesn't mean that the generals under his command, including Tu Sui, the Qin army, really care about this matter.
The six countries have been swept away, what can a mere Baiyue do? Maybe in the hearts of most Qin army generals, that's what they think.
Of course, even if the First Emperor attaches importance to this issue and knows the complexity of Baiyue, some things still cannot be solved.
After the bloody battle of Zhaoyang Daze, Liu Kan proposed a set of first aid methods.
But one of the most important factors in this is the means of disinfection. Liu Kan's method is very simple, refining high-concentration soju. On the one hand, it can be used for disinfection, and on the other hand, if it is accompanied by medicine, it may be able to solve the problem of local miasma.
"Shochu?"
It's the first time Ren Huan has heard such a term.
Shochu refers to a variety of transparent and colorless distilled spirits, also known as liquor. In what era did soju originate in Chinese history? Accounts differ and opinions vary. But it is said that it was first produced in the Tang Dynasty, and as for authenticity, it is difficult to make a correct judgment.
"Is this thing really useful?"
Ren Huan will be skeptical, but in his heart, he is a little moved.
Liu Kan shrugged his shoulders, "I don't know, it should be useful in theory, but I've experimented a few times, but I've been unsuccessful." ”
"Then you tell me in detail, maybe I can give you some ideas."
Liu Kan thought about it, so he explained the principle of soju distillation that he understood. Of course, he is not engaged in this background after all, and can only make a brief introduction. Specifically, the effect of the combination of herbs and shochu is mainly aimed at miasma.
Ren Huan listened to Liu Kan's narration very carefully, patted his forehead gently, and muttered silently.
Liu Kan didn't dare to disturb, so he sat next to him and waited quietly.
"This thing you are talking about...... Oh, it's called shochu, isn't it...... This is the first time I've heard of it. However, in terms of the taste you mentioned, it seems to be a bit impressive. Seems like four years ago? When I was with General Wang Ben to attack Julu, I tasted such wine in a restaurant in Songzicheng (north of Zhao County, Hebei), and I only drank one sip, but I was still quite impressed.
The color of the wine is a little cloudy, not the colorless and transparent you said, but the taste is quite similar......
At that time, I also asked the owner of the restaurant, who would like to taste such a bad wine. The owner of the restaurant said that the wine was placed by a swallow man in his place. There are still people who are willing to drink it, but most of them are people from the past in the north who like that taste. ”
The north in Ren Huan's mouth mostly refers to the Huns north of the Great Wall of Yanzhao.
Liu Kan's eyes lit up, "Then can the adults introduce Xiaomin?" If this wine is made, it will definitely save many lives. ”
Ren Huan smiled and nodded: "Xu Gong, the county lieutenant of Songzi, and I have some friendship. Liu Kan, since you have the heart to do this, of course I can introduce you. If you succeed, your military exploits will be indispensable; But if you fail...... Hehe. ”
"If it fails, the small people should bear it by themselves."
Ren Huan then went back to the room and took out a token, and then wrote a wooden tablet and handed it to Liu Kan together.
"This is the Iron Eagle Order I held back then, and with this piece of wooden tablet, Xu Gong will definitely cooperate with you. Well, when are you out? ”
Liu Kan thought for a while, "Naturally, the sooner the better...... It's just that they didn't come back, and they didn't come back, and they ...... at home."
Of course, Ren Huan knew what Liu Kan was worried about, so he smiled, "Just rest assured about the affairs of your family, I will arrange someone to take care of it." Well, this matter is very important, if it is completed as soon as possible, the lives of my soldiers in the southern expedition will be guaranteed, so you should go. ”
Liu Kan immediately agreed, "The villain will go home and make arrangements, at most four or five days, and he will definitely set off." ”
"Very good!"
Ren Huan told Liu Kan some details that needed attention. After all, Song Zicheng is the territory of the old Zhao, and the situation in Pei County is different.
By the time Liu Kan said goodbye, it was already dark.
Ren Huan made an exception and ordered his family to arrange a car to send Liu Kan home.
Standing at the door of the official office, watching the car go away, an old family member beside Ren Huan couldn't help but step forward and said: "My lord, this Liu Kan is brave and quick, and has a lot of wonderful ideas, he will definitely be able to become the right-hand man of the adult in the future, why not take him to Xiangxian?" ”
Ren Huan shook his head and smiled bitterly and sighed lightly.
"Why wouldn't I?" He was silent for a moment, "I'm just worried that my place is small, but I can't accommodate him...... After all, he is too young, according to the law, the minimum for a servant is twenty years old, even if he is taken to Xiangxian, what can he do?
Lord Neshi had wanted him to serve in the army.
However, many years have passed, and Master Meng has not mentioned this matter again, and he must have forgotten it. As far as I'm concerned, I don't want him to join the military...... Hehe, this is selfish.
Let him continue to stay in Peixian, I will order someone to pay attention to it secretly.
If he is really useful, I would like to recommend it to Your Majesty; But if it's too much to use, forget it. ”
******
When Liu Kan returned home, it was almost time.
Wang Ji was anxiously looking at the gate of the courtyard, and when he saw Liu Kan getting out of the car, he hurriedly stepped forward, "Brother Akan, Yangwu Chen Yu has sent someone to come, and I have been waiting for a long time." ”
Liu Kan heard a sigh in his heart, and hurriedly dressed up and said, "Take me quickly." ”
Is Chen Ping here?
Liu Kan was a little excited in his heart! Earlier, when he saw Xiao He, Liu Bang, and Lu Pheasant, he was just moved in his heart. At that time, he didn't have any ideas, just thinking about how to settle down in Pei County and fish in troubled waters in the future.
But now, after carrying the brand of an old Qin person, this idea is a little different.
Moreover, waiting for him in the house was Chen Ping, a rather remarkable character. Liu Kan was a little excited in his heart.
A young man who was twenty-four or five years old and was born with a strong force was sitting in the hall.
As soon as Liu Kan entered the house, he said: "You have been waiting for a long time, and you are disrespectful and disrespectful!" ”
But if you take a closer look, it seems to be a little different from the image of Chen Ping in your mind, is it really Chen Ping?
The young man stood up and arched his hand: "In Xia Chenyi, my cousin asked me to bring a hundred gold and yi in front of me to escort the residual wine." ”
"Chen Yi?"
Liu Kanqi said: "You are not Chen Ping? ”
The young man smiled innocently, "Chen Ping is my cousin, and before my cousin returned to Yangwu, he left for Jimo to study. My cousin had no choice but to order me to come in place of my brother. Here are my cousin's letters, and a hundred gold medals. ”
As he spoke, he took out a piece of wooden tablet from his bosom, then picked up a package from the side of the desk and slammed it on the table.
Liu Kan was more or less disappointed in his heart.
It turns out that it's really not Chen Ping...... It's a pity, it's a pity! But although I thought so in my heart, I didn't show it on my face. didn't look at the package, just took the wooden tablet and glanced at it, "Brother Chen, don't worry, the residual wine has been prepared and can be transported away at any time." It's getting late, so why don't you rest for the night and talk about it tomorrow? ”
Chen Yi smiled, "My cousin said that he wants me to obey Liu Sheng's orders!" ”
Liu Kan immediately asked Wang Ji to arrange a residence for Chen Yi.
Fortunately, the family built two houses, one of which had three wings, which was just right to be placed.
Picking up the hundred Yi gold, Liu Kan went straight to the inner hall. After handing over the gold to his mother for collection, he then told Mrs. Kan about the life in the county.
"You mean, your father is from Qin?"
Obviously, Liu Kan's father did not tell Mrs. Kan about his origin, so that Mrs. Kan was surprised when she heard it.
The county magistrate said that he had sent someone to investigate, saying that the ancestor had left Guanzhong because he had escaped the law. My father's ancestral home should be in Pinyang Dongxiang...... However, the emperor has pardoned the crimes of the year, but the county magistrate did not say the specifics. ”
Mrs. Kan looked very open, and after thinking about it, she smiled and said: "Qin people are Qin people, in fact, in this world, which one is not a Qin person?" This man always has to face reality...... Some people just won't admit it, but what's the use?
However, why do you suddenly want to go to Julu?
That place is far away from here, you are so young, you go out alone, my mother is a little uneasy. ”
Also, no matter how burly and strong Liu Kan looks, in fact, he has just passed the age of sixteen.
Mrs. Kan said: "My mother still wants to take advantage of the fact that there are not many things to do during this time and set a family affair for you...... Looks like it's not going to work. ”
"Family?"
"Yes, you're sixteen, even if you're growing up, it's time to start a family!"
Liu Kan was dizzy when he heard it...... Do you want me to get married at the age of sixteen? This is a typical early marriage. But come to think of it, this custom is like this, so don't blame it.
"Kan, when are you leaving?"
Liu Kan thought for a while, "Just for one or two days." This matter is very urgent and cannot be delayed...... Well, tomorrow after I have taken care of some things, I want to leave the day after tomorrow. It's just that the irrigation family hasn't replied to the letter yet, but I'm a little relieved. ”
Mrs. Kan was silent for a moment, "You just have to do things, don't worry about things at home, my mother and Wang Ji are enough to handle it." The business affairs will be taken care of by Lao Zhou...... As for the rest, shouldn't the three of them come back too?
However, if you go alone, my mother is still not at ease.
In this way, my mother sees that Mr. Cheng is a very stable person, he is old and has experience, let him go with you. ”
Mr. Cheng is Cheng Miao.
Liu Kan thought about it and felt that it was not a bad thing to have such a person follow.
