Seventy-two times wine

After getting off the boat, Qiao Ren and Zhou Yu walked side by side, discussing how to place the bed crossbow in Qiao Ren's mouth on the building boat. With Qiao Ren's ideas and Zhou Yu's experience, this structure is infinitely close to being feasible.

At this time, the originally quiet road suddenly became noisy, and Zhou Yu looked back and saw that Gan Ning and Zhou Tai were arguing about something. Zhou Yu hit the horse and left, and finally knew the whole story of the matter in a few words. It turned out that what the two were arguing about was that Gan Ning killed fifty-six people and Zhou Tai killed fifty-seven people, but Gan Ning asked that nearly 100 people who were smashed into the water by him and whose fate was unknown were also counted.

Gan Ning's halberds, when connected with iron chains, can smash people like meteor hammers, and it is very easy to smash people into the water on ships. But after being smashed into the water, it was difficult to distinguish between life and death, so Zhou Tai resolutely opposed the inclusion of these heads.

Zhou Yu couldn't cry or laugh after learning about the whole thing, and the two fierce generals and brothers with heads and faces in Eastern Wu actually quarreled in public over this matter. "What's the bet between the two of you?" Zhou Yu obviously didn't want the two of them to go on like this.

When Zhou Tai heard this, he touched his head very embarrassed and said, "It's the flower carving sent by Qiao's escort!" ”

"Flower carving!?" Zhou Yu also knew that this so-called Huadiao was a moonshine brewed by Qiao Ren, and compared with the wine of the late Han Dynasty, Huadiao wine was more mellow and heavy, and it had a price in the Jiangdong region, and only Qiao Ren's mansion could brew it. And ordinary businessmen and families didn't dare to go to Qiao Ren to ask for the formula, and Qiao Ren himself had no intention of doing business with her, only the generals who were kind to Qiao Ren during the Mid-Autumn Festival could get some gifts from Qiao Ren.

After Zhou Yu understood the culprit, he set his eyes on Qiao Ren. Qiao Ren made an innocent expression, in fact, after Qiao Ren came to the end of the Han Dynasty, he was not used to drinking the wine at that time, and he did not know how to brew distilled spirits. Therefore, I had to choose the best glutinous rice and high-quality wheat koji, supplemented by the mountain spring in the east of the river to brew Huadiao.

Looking at Zhou Yu's gaze, Qiao Ren was really embarrassed, so he had to say: "I'll send the two generals five altars each!" ”

However, Zhou Yu obviously didn't want to give up, but asked: "Why doesn't Ziyan make more of this wine so that it can be sold." Obviously, Zhou Yu is also a person who loves to drink Huadiao.

"Ahh Qiao Ren was startled and said, "I can still do business!" ”

As soon as Qiao Ren's words came out, not only Zhou Yu, but even Gan Ning and Zhou Tai also looked at Qiao Ren with an idiot expression, which made Qiao Ren's face red. In the end, Zhou Yu came out to relieve the siege and said: "It's not that you want to manage it personally, but to hang the property on the name of the housekeeper in your house or the side of the clan." This is the family's way of making money, don't you know? ”

Qiao Ren really didn't know that since he came to the end of the Han Dynasty, he was either studying and practicing martial arts, or fighting wars and governing politics, and he had never managed family affairs, and Qiao Guolao did not live with Qiao Ren after he became a family. Qiao Ren really didn't know how the family did it.

Helplessly, Zhou Yu had no choice but to give Qiao Ren a science popularization on the way back to the camp to learn about the family's way of making money.

An hour ago, on top of Zhang Yun's flagship. Cao Ying actually doesn't trust Cai Mao and Zhang Yun so much, how much trust can a person who can turn his back on the Lord get? It's just because none of the famous generals under his command are good at water warfare, so he has to use these two.

However, Cai Mao and Zhang Yun really disappointed him, not only did they lose out of the station but also went north in a hurry, fortunately, Zhou Yu did not have the idea of pursuing, otherwise Cao Ying was so angry that he drew his sword and killed Zhang Yun and Cai Mao on the spot.

Cao Ying, who was on the high ground on the north bank, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw the Wu people retreating. Looking at the water army with heavy losses, he said hatefully: "Cai Mao and Zhang Yun, these two wastes, almost missed Lone's big event!" ”

Coincidentally, Cai Mao came to Cao Ying with Zhang Yun's support, Cai Mao just fell on the flagship due to a frightened fall, and he still needed Zhang Yun's support. As soon as Cai Mao saw that Cao Ying's face was wrong, she threw Zhang Yun away, fell to the ground and cried: "Mao has the trust of the prime minister, and he returned in defeat, please punish the prime minister!" ”

Seeing the embarrassed Cai Mao and Zhang Yun standing stupidly on the side, although Cao Ying scolded the waste in his heart, he still laughed on his face, helped Cai Mao up, and said kindly: "Victory and defeat are common things in soldiers, what a good way." Let's camp in Wulin first, and after the navy army rests and trains, let's fight with Zhou Yu. ”

When Zhang Yun helped Cai Mao down to treat his injuries, Cao Ying's face became gloomy again, and he said to the generals: "These two people are not only traitors seeking glory but also incompetent, if you expect them to cross the Yangtze River alone." Where is Yu Ban and Mao Jue! ”

"In", one article and one martial arts, the two important ministers immediately came out of the ranks.

"The two of you are familiar with the tactics of the naval army as soon as possible, training, and the layout of the military village. Later, I will replace those two pieces of waste! Cao Ying was very dissatisfied with Cai Mao and Zhang Yun.

"Whoa"

Here, when Cao Ying cleaned up the defeated troops and set up camp on the ground of Wulin on the north bank, a celebration banquet had been set up in Zhou Yu's camp here. The sound of the feast, the bonfire, and the aroma of food seemed to be transmitted to the other side of the Ullin.

Seeing today's great victory, Liu Bei's evaluation of Zhou Yu's ability to lead the troops suddenly improved to a higher level, and he toasted Zhou Yu many times during the banquet. The generals who have been in the army for a long time have been drinking and banqueting, so they will not be as gentle as the official banquet, especially when Qiao Ren proposed that the generals in the field have one person and one altar of flower carvings, the atmosphere has reached the most.

However, Liu Bei and Zhuge Liang didn't understand, and muttered, 'What is Huadiao'

And Gan Ning was already drunk happily at this time, and the accustomed surname took off his clothes and armor, came to Zhuge Liang bare-chested, and put his hand on Zhuge Wolong's neck, and the smell of wine spread in his mouth, and said: "Mr. Kong Ming, a certain family has also been in Nanyang for several years, and the reputation of Mr. has been like thunder and has always wanted to see him, but he doesn't want to see him today." Come, a certain family respects Mr. an altar. ”

As the saying goes, Xiucai met a soldier, it was unreasonable, Zhuge Liang didn't know what to say when he met Gan Ning, and he didn't drink it for a while, he Zhuge Liang was a literati who was serious, not a ranger like Xu Shu, not a Confucian general like Zhou Yu who had not led the army before the weak crown, and a jar of wine was enough to kill him.

On the side, Liu Bei was also helpless, and Gan Ning came to toast seriously. But Qiao Ren was hiding and snickering on the side, thinking about Zhuge Liang, who was scratching his bag, being pulled by the shirtless Gan Ning to blow the jar, it was funny to think about.

However, after Zhuge Liang pulled and pulled for a while, Qiao Ren still opened his mouth to relieve the siege and said: "Brother Xingba, Mr. Kong Ming is afraid of heat, and he still carries a fan in winter!" You have a jar of wine in your stomach, and your body is hot, you can't help but want to die of heat. Come, if you want to drink, I'll accompany you. As he spoke, he carried a wine jar and went to Gan Ning to fight for wine. Qiao Ren's amount of alcohol is surprisingly good, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is not drunk after a thousand cups.

Zhuge Liang, who was released, could finally gasp for breath, but he regretted in his heart that he didn't bring Zhang Fei, a big wine jar, to kill the arrogance of this group of Wu people.
