After Han Ji came out of the carpenter, he went to the blacksmith shop again, and after working for a long time, Han Ji returned to the tavern with his things.

After asking old Ivan for a barrel of ale, Han Ji moved everything to the firewood room in the backyard, and after locking the door, Han Ji set up a simple stove and began to build a fire.

Han Ji assembled the things he had made in the afternoon, and a very simple still appeared, although it was very simple, but it was enough to make distilled spirits, and at most it was a bit of a waste.

Han Ji began to try distillation, although the principle is understood, but after all, he has no experience in mastering the heat at all, at first Han Ji made the distilled liquor into boiled wine, and later he mastered the heat.

Generally tossed until midnight, and after a simple clean-up of the scene, Han Ji brought two small cans of finished products to the counter.

"Old Ivan, how about a taste!" Han Ji placed the wine jar in front of Old Ivan.

"It tastes worse now, but it's stronger than your ale." Han Ji said to old Ivan while beckoning the tavern guys to take the food.

"Marquis boy, this is what you said about the family's secret liquor, the strongest liquor in the mainland?" Old Ivan didn't react a little, after all, Han Ji had only made the wine in half a day, and in Ivan's mind, all secret wines had a very complicated process and required a lot of time to make.

"That's right!" Han Ji nodded while drinking beef cabbage soup.

"My lord, I finally see you! I have something to report to you. Arthur also appeared, and it seems that he has been waiting for Han Ji for a while.

"Arthur, is there any good news for me? Is it the right task to be received! Han Ji asked Arthur while eating.

"Yes, Your Excellency, we have a task to complete. You can dine first, and I'll tell you more about it later. Arthur looked at Han Ji who was eating, and then he saw old Ivan who was pouring wine, and he saw that the color of the wine was obviously different from the ordinary ale.

"Your Excellency, is this your family's secret brewery? It looked so unique, I felt like I could smell a strong aroma of wine. "Arthur looks very excited, no way, basically most of the generals like to drink, and they are very good at drinking.

"Want to taste it? Help me see how the wine goes! Han Ji said to Arthur with a smile.

"No, Your Excellency, we still have a task to face, and drinking alcohol at this time will not help the task." Arthur was impressed, but he explicitly refused.

"It's okay, just taste it, it must have no effect. You see, old Ivan enjoyed it, and he should be very satisfied! Han Ji pointed to old Ivan and persuaded Arthur.

Arthur looked at old Ivan enjoying it, and was also very curious about what the wine tasted like.

"Alright! Your Excellency, I will drink only a small glass. Arthur said with restraint.

"Please, my knight." Han Ji welcomed.

Arthur took a wooden cup and poured a small half of it, first he lowered his head and sniffed the smell, then took a sip of the cup.

"Really excellent wine, never drunk so strong! This is really the No. 1 liquor in the mainland. Arthur tasted the residual smell of drunkenness and said to Han Ji.

"That's good, I guess old Ivan shouldn't have any doubts, right?" Han Ji turned his head to old Ivan and said.

"Marquis boy, you really don't say much, your wine is indeed very good, and old Ivan likes it very much. I agree to cooperate with you, I will give a thousand dinars, three to achieve three out of three! Old Ivan said loudly, he had drunk almost all the jars, and now the wine was starting to rise, and the newly distilled wine was relatively easy to get up.

"Old Ivan, I have a new idea!" Han Ji said,

"What? Are you going to repent? Old Ivan looked very excited, he was now a hundred satisfied with Han Ji's wine, and he believed that no one who liked to drink could refuse such a drink.

"No, I think we should be a little bolder! Invest more money, after all, real wine takes time to settle, and what you are drinking now is only a half-finished product. And I need to get a large amount of dinars as soon as possible to develop my strength. Han Ji explained in a deep voice.

"But old Ivan only has so many dinars at most, and that's the limit of what I can take." Old Ivan said he couldn't do anything.

"No, we have another way, we can borrow it, I think there should be a merchant in Zhivading City who can provide a loan!" This is Han Ji's plan, borrowing money to make money.

"You mean borrowing money from those vampires? No, you're crazy, they're going to suck you all out. And they don't lend a lot of dinars easily, your idea is not realistic! Old Ivan shook his head and said.

"How about borrowing this money from the Marquis of Larcha? We can pay him interest. We need 5,000 dinars, and I think with your relationship with the marquis, it should be possible. Han Ji suddenly made a new suggestion.

"Well, you let me think about it, it's not a big deal that can be decided hastily." Old Ivan looked a little hesitant.

"Yes, but we need to be prepared, even if the Marquis of Larcha does not agree to borrow, our plan must be carried out." Han Ji said.

"That's no problem, I can't wait to drink more, let's talk! What needs old Ivan to do. "Old Ivan was clearly very concerned, not for money, but for wine.

"We needed a place that was secluded and safe enough to protect us from prying eyes, and it had to be a house made of stone, which was for fire prevention. At the same time, there should be enough space for storing wine. Han Ji explained one by one.

"Okay, that's fine, anything else?" Old Ivan replied briskly, there is no shortage of such places in Old Ivan Zhivadin.

"Then there are the large quantities of oak barrels that are custom-made for the wine, which have to be oak. Finally, we had to prepare a large amount of high-quality ale liquor, and we did not have time to re-brew a batch of liquor, so we had to use ready-made liquor as raw materials. Han Ji added.

"How much wine and barrels do I need for this?" Old Ivan was a little unsure of the amount Han Ji wanted.

"Prepare 10,000 barrels of wheat bars first!" Han Ji lightly said a number of people who were scared to death.

"No, do you know how many dinars you need for 10,000 barrels of wine? Minimum 5,000 dinars. "Old Ivan was scared to pee.

"That's why I asked you to borrow money." Han Ji looked at old Ivan with disdain.

"This" old Ivan is stuck.

"Alright! I'll prepare for the preliminary work, and you let me think about borrowing money. Old Ivan said so.

"Oh well! I'm also on my way to a mission, and when I get back, I hope to hear good news. Han Ji shrugged helplessly and said.

"Arthur, let's go over there and talk about the mission!" Han Ji turned to Arthur and said that Arthur remained quiet while they talked, just savoring the little whiskey.

"Yes, Your Excellency." Arthur Howe put down the wine glass in his hand without hesitation and followed Han Ji to the table.

"Arthur, what kind of mission is it? You name it. Han Ji sat down and asked.

"Your Excellency, it is like this. I was given a special escort assignment. Arthur spoke.

"There was a small merchant in Zhivadin, his family in Omur County was kidnapped, it was his son, and the family sent the kidnappers a ransom demand, and he hoped that strong warriors would escort him to complete the hostage ransom operation." Arthur explained the origin of the mission in detail.

"Just asking to escort him to redeem his son?" Han Ji asked.

"The employer really only asks for this, and he is worried that the kidnappers will break their promises, and although many thieves with names don't usually do this, there are always some thieves who don't follow the rules, so they hire us." Arthur nodded.

"What do you think? Arthur. Han Ji asked Arthur.

"We should first ensure the safety of the hostages and employers, and if we can, we should eradicate these bandits." Arthur continued, "We should be ready to fight, and we should be ready to adapt when the time comes. ”

"Okay, I see, is the mission time tomorrow?" Han Ji asked.

"Yes, Your Excellency, tomorrow morning we will meet our employer near the North City Gate." Arthur said.

"Okay, I'll go get ready." After Han Ji finished speaking to Arthur, he got up and left the table.

Han Ji took the feed and a can of ale, and after feeding him the black charcoal, he bathed and brushed his hairs.

"Black Tan, tomorrow we will go into battle together to kill the enemy, you have to behave well." Han Ji touched the mane of the black charcoal and said in a low voice.

Black Tan puffed out his tongue in response to Han Ji, Han Ji patted Black Tan on the shoulder, and then turned around and went back to the room.

Han Ji sorted out the things he would use tomorrow, and he took out a folded piece of chain mail from his backpack, and Han Ji stretched him out.

It is a half-length short-sleeved chainmail that can be worn to block ordinary bows and crossbows and slashes from ordinary enemies.

However, in the face of a strong bow and a hard sword, it may be pierced, but fortunately, Han Ji's current enemy is not a regular army.

Han Ji then took out the head cover neck guard that was also a chain structure, which was combined with chain mail.

These two things are all of Han Ji's armor, and the backpack he carries can't fit too many things.

Then Han Ji picked up his bow and arrows, which were originally hung on Black Tan's body, but were taken away by the system along with Black Tan, and now they are back.

The bow is a short bow made of wood chips and animal tendons and glue, reinforced by a loop of rope wrapped around it.

This is a simple composite bow made by Han's step-grandfather, although the process and materials are not perfect, but it is more or less useful than ordinary straight-pull bows.

The curved bow body is about one meter long, the maximum pulling distance between the bow and the bowstring is close to 80 centimeters, and the pulling force of the whole bow is about 90 catties, which is considered a medium bow force.

Han Ji's arrows are made of relatively sophisticated iron arrows, and the penetration power is still good, and it is definitely a shot to wear the cloth armor and leather armor of thieves.
