That's why this time there is a scene of these dignitaries and dignitaries forming a team and coming to this Qianshan City to find the source of snowflake candy.

And Li Gui wants to find this snowflake candy, and there is another purpose......

Li Gui's father is the most trusted younger brother of the current king of Nanyun Kingdom.

He was in charge of the Weaving House for the King, and although it was nominally a Weaving House, it was actually the King's Purchasing Office.

Help the king find all kinds of new things in the world.

And this white sugar is one of the important materials they are looking for.

On the one hand, it can please the king, and on the other hand, the father and son have realized that this kind of thing is a very important strategic material.

This has to be related to Li Gui's eldest brother Li Guo, who received the title of general of the chariot cavalry last year and went to conquer the Nanzhao Kingdom.

This Nanzhao Kingdom is a small country located in the southeast of Nanyun Kingdom.

In the past, it was a subject country that obediently submitted, but in the past two years, this small country has not known what evil medicine it has taken.

Not only did he not come to pay tribute every year, but he also often crossed the border to provoke, ate a lot of land in Nanyun Kingdom, and killed many people.

So the king was determined to destroy the small country, and last year he sent a large army to conquer it.

And his elder brother Li Guo, at that time, relied on his background and mixed the title of a chariot general to follow the general and mixed military merits.

I never thought that along the way, because of the miasma and the plague, their army would suffer heavy casualties.

Before he could reach Nanzhao, he lost one-fifth of his army.

When I arrived in Nanzhao, I encountered heavy rain again.

As a result, even the main force of Nanzhao did not meet, and it lost one-fifth of its army.

finally waited until the rainy season passed, but encountered various plagues frequently, and the army of Nanyun Kingdom had a large area of water and soil adaptation.

As a result, many soldiers directly lost their combat effectiveness.

This has not yet fought with the army of Nanzhao Kingdom, and it has already lost seventy-seven-eighty-eight.

Originally, the general wanted to report the situation and then return to the court.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he was about to pull out the camp, he was surrounded by the army of Nanzhaoguo.

In the end, the general could only leave him behind, and then withdrew with the rest of the army.

His eldest brother, who had never fought any battles, was panicked, how could this battle be fought?

I didn't have much experience, and most of the soldiers under my command were soldiers who had little morale after being tortured by plagues and various diseases and diseases?

So after holding it in the camp for a few days, he felt that the army had gone far, and Li Guo planned to lead the army to break through.

Before breaking through, he suddenly remembered that before leaving, his old father secretly stuffed him with three packets of snowflake candy.

So he asked people to turn a bag of snowflakes into sugar water and give a cup to thousands of soldiers.

Then the other two packets were turned into syrup and used as a seasoning to make the last meal.

Unexpectedly, these foods full of sweetness inspired the last courage of the soldiers.

Even many soldiers who were not in good health were regained their vitality after drinking sugar water and eating syrup as a meal.

All the sergeants took the lead, and when they left the camp, they fought to the death with the army of Nanzhao.

As a result, relying on this fierce spirit, he tore a hole in the 100,000 army of Nanzhao State.

The 5,000-strong army rushed out of more than 3,000 people.

It can be said that it is one of the few bright spots in the conquest battle last year.

And his eldest brother has become one of the few generals who has not been affected by this defeat after returning to China.

As for the other generals who retreated with General Yuan, they were either beheaded, or they were stripped of their official hats, stripped of their clothes, and demoted to commoners.

And this year, there have been rumors that the king intends to take the expedition in person.

So this time, his father hurriedly sent him out.

I hope to be able to get a lot of sugar back before I leave.

As an important logistical material, it was used by the army.

They don't know if this snowflake candy can kill the intractable plague in Nanzhao Kingdom.

But they know that this snowflake candy has a great effect on boosting morale.

Especially after walking through the Nanzhao Kingdom, the humid and dense rainforest, after being harassed by mosquitoes and plagues.

This kind of sweet-as-a-like snowflake candy, taken out to cook a meal for the army, will definitely make the morale of those who have fallen below the passing line immediately jump to the point of MAX.

It is not an exaggeration to say that this kind of snowflake candy is a guarantee of morale!

And morale is a very important thing for the army all the time.

And when Li Gui saw the boss of such a strongman tribe, he seemed to be particularly familiar with Qianshan City.

That's why I turned back and asked him to inquire about it.

When the boss heard this question, he was stunned at first, and then his face was replaced with a rather playful smile.

"It turns out that you are interested in that snowflake candy, childe!"

"But this snowflake candy, even in Thousand Mountains City, is a very precious material!"

When Li Gui heard this, his face was covered with laugh lines.

Then with his hand in his sleeve, he took out five copper plates and stuffed them into the big man's hand.

"Boss, I'm just bothering you!"

The boss reached out and scratched his greasy head, and then smiled.

"What about this kind of material, I heard people in the city say that they call this thing a strategic material, and it is strictly forbidden to sell it in the market."

"But if someone really wants to buy it, it's not that they can't sell it, but it's just that this price~"

Li Gui nodded: "The price is not a problem!" ”

"Well, then you go to the foot of the West Mountain, there is a newly built factory over there, it seems to be called thirsty and thirsty."

"I've heard that it seems to be for sale on their side now!"

"Our strongman tribe, many of whom come to Qianshan City to sell cattle and sheep, end up exchanging supplies for that factory."

"It's just that they don't seem to be changing snowflake candy now, but giving something else!"

After Li Gui heard this, his brows couldn't help but tighten again.

"Huh? Not giving alabaster anymore? ”

"Well, I've only heard, after all, I haven't been to change. But I've had a few friends change too. ”

"I asked them, and they said that the things that the factory now gives are not only not worse than snowflake candy, but better than snowflake candy!"

"After they changed it, they also tried new products, and it is said that they feel better than white sugar!"

The owner of this shop recommended Li Gui and said.

Li Gui was a little skeptical, but now that the money has been given, people have also informed him of all the information that should be told.

Even if he was suspicious, he could only bite the bullet and say thank you to the boss......

And when this Li Gui was pestering the boss and inquiring about this snowflake candy in the store.

That Chu Yuncheng was in the market, and he was also looking around for the goods he wanted.

It's a pity that after a long walk, he didn't find what he was looking for.

Just as he was about to leave disappointed, he suddenly saw a crowded crowd in front of him......
