"Cadre."

"The minister is here!"

"You can instruct the domestic brewers to mix and produce a suitable and mellow soju according to the characteristics of this kind of soju, and then try their best to produce it, and be sure to ensure the taste."

"No!"

The cadre hurriedly agreed.

The market for this kind of soju may not be large in the south, but in the Central Plains and the north, when the weather is cold, it is not impossible to drink soju.

Moreover, the market that Wu is now opening up is not only one acre and three points of land in China, but even very popular in Western countries!

In ancient times, all wines were fermented, and the degree was not higher than 20 degrees.

Sake is mainly made from grains such as rice, millet and corn, so it can also be called "rice wine".

In ancient times, the filtration technology of liquor was not mature, and after the liquor was filtered, it still contained a lot of fine rice residues, so it was in a turbid state, and it was called "turbid liquor......

As depicted in Li Bai's poems: The golden bottle of sake is ten thousand, and the jade plate is shy and ten thousand dollars.

There is also Wu Song's "three bowls are not enough".

Southerners prefer to drink sake compared to northern spirits.

Subsequently, Qingji took out the perfume, soap and soap that had been blended, and instructed Gan to open additional workshops for the production and research and development of these three things.

All the necessary money is allocated from the state treasury.

The current Wu State has a big family and a big business, and its annual financial income is extremely high.

With the advent of perfumes, soaps and soaps, it is believed that Wu Guo can make a lot of money from it.

It is difficult to say about the domestic market, as well as the market of the Central Plains countries.

However, these three things will definitely be sought after by celebrities and ladies in the West......

This is the so-called "love of beauty, everyone has it"!

"The production of soju, perfume, soap and soap is unified by the cadre, the sales are in charge of Zeng Dian, and Fan Li is in the middle of the dispatch."

"Obey the king's orders!"

Fan Li, Zeng Dian and the cadres all said in unison towards Qingji.

"Is the king preparing to organize the second westward caravan?"

Fan Li asked suspiciously.

"Those who know the widow, Fan Liye."

Qingji chuckled and said, "The widow does intend to organize a second westbound caravan. As the saying goes, scarcity is precious, and there are many things that the West does not have. ”

"In recent years, although many businessmen from Western countries have come to the Central Plains to do business, there are not many."

"Wu is now rich in products and has a lot of commodities, I am afraid that it will be difficult to produce and sell it by itself, and the countries will not be able to eat ......."

This is exactly one of the issues that Qingji is worried about.

Wu has now seen a prosperous scene in all walks of life.

Paper, salt, tea, silk, porcelain and other goods, as well as sharp weapons and armor, military baggage, have an extremely wide market in China and even in the West, and are very popular.

However, Wu's business has reached a bottleneck that is difficult to break through, so the economy has entered a low period.

Why?

Because the market is so big.

Wu had to open up new markets.

With the advent of perfumes, soaps, soaps, and shochu, Qingji believed that Wu's commerce would once again prosper and break through bottlenecks......

More than two months later, Wu once again organized a westward caravan, led by Yin Xi and Mueller, including scholars, merchants, and soldiers, a total of 3,000 people, carrying all kinds of Wu specialties to Western countries.

Originally a Persian and a disciple of Pythagoras, Müller was familiar with the journey west.

However, feeling the cultural prosperity of the Wu Kingdom, Muller volunteered to stay in Jinling and became a guest secretary, and has always stayed in the Jixia School Palace for academic exchanges, which is very profitable.

As for Yin Xi, the origin is not small.

Yin Xi, the word Wen Gong, the number Wen Shi Zhenren, Mr. Wen Shi, Guan Yin.

He is one of the ten great men in the world in the pre-Qin era, a doctor, a general, a philosopher, and an educator of the Zhou royal family.

"Zhuangzi Tianxia" juxtaposes Yin Xi and Lao Tzu as "the ancient broad and great real people".

When Lao Tzu rode a green ox to travel the world, Yin Xi, who was the commander of Hangu Pass at the time, knew that Lao Tzu was knowledgeable and had great wisdom in his heart, so he told his subordinates to be people with a physical appearance and not to let him pass.

He also sent people to sweep the roads and burn incense to wait for the arrival of the saints.

Lao Tzu went to Hangu Pass, Yin Xi heard the news, welcomed him to his home, made a big gift to his disciples, bowed again and again, and asked Lao Tzu to stay, but Lao Tzu refused.

After that, Yin Xi resigned from his official position due to illness, and traveled west with Lao Tzu, passing through Guanzhong, crossing the Qinling Mountains, and suffering a lot of hardships along Weishui, and traveled to his hometown of Boyang, Qinzhou.

Yin Xi was awarded the ancient book "Five Thousand Words of Lao Tzu", that is, "Tao Te Ching".

Later, Yin Xi also followed Lao Tzu to the west and turned Hu into the Western Regions......

Therefore, Yin Xi has traveled west to understand the humanities and landforms of the countries in the Western Regions.

I heard that Lao Tzu was born in Wu State, and after lecturing in Jixia School Palace, Yin Xi followed him to Wu State, and was worshiped as a guest by Qingji, enjoying the same treatment as Jiuqing, with a rank of 2,000 stones......

Like the last westbound caravan, this time, there were many young scholars from hundreds of schools in the westbound caravan.

Their mission was to follow the caravan and trek all the way through mountains and rivers, spreading Chinese culture and conducting academic exchanges with Westerners.

This historical significance, just like Zheng He's voyage to the West during the Ming Dynasty, has a far-reaching impact.

……

The time entered the nineteenth year of King Qingji of Wu, that is, in 495 BC, the fourth month of the lunar calendar.

The spring ploughing of Wu has been completed, and it can be said that the Haiyan River is clear.

Although there were some small-scale rebellions in the nine southern counties of Wu and the land of the old Chu, they were also quickly suppressed and harmless.

However, at this time, the Central Plains was not very peaceful.

Every time there is a spring ploughing, or at the turn of winter and spring, the nations have a tacit understanding to stop fighting and stop fighting, so as to allow the people's livelihood to recuperate.

After this spring ploughing, everything is surging in the undercurrent!

The Fan, Zhongxing, Qi, and Jin states all repeatedly sent envoys to Wu to persuade Qingji to send troops or remain neutral.

However, Qingji's attitude has always been ambiguous, and it seems that he only wants to wait for a big war to break out in the Central Plains, and then make profits from it and make a lot of war money......

At this time, in the Zide Palace, Qingji personally met with Gao Zhang, the secretary from the Qi State.

"Qi Shangqing Gao Zhang, see Wu Hou!"

Gao Zhang, who is nine feet long and has an extraordinary temperament, bowed unhurriedly after seeing Qingji.

"Gaozi doesn't have to be polite, sit!"

"Xie Wuhou!"

Qingji stretched out his hand and waved, so please sit down.

The State of Qi sent Gao Zhang to envoy Wu this time, and it is conceivable that the Marquis of Qi's attitude towards the alliance of Wu and Qi.

Compared with Qingji, Qi Hou may be more eager to take this opportunity to defeat the Jin State in one fell swoop and make the Qi State the overlord of the world!

Because, at this time, the Marquis of Qi was already dying, and there was not much time left for him.
