Malingshan Mine in Donghai County, on a hillside, built a simple wooden shed, standing in the wooden shed on the hillside, you can not only condescendingly supervise a group of miners who are working, but also overlook the scenery of Maling Mountain, the breeze is gentle, but also has some meaning of playing in the mountains and waters.

"Governor, what's the matter?" Ma Li, the flag general guarding the Malingshan mine, stood in the wooden shed and asked in amazement.

The recorder Li Song was also a little puzzled, and looked at Zhou Fugui a little timidly.

The prestige of the Lianghou of Pingliang of the Great Yan Kingdom, the Governor of the East China Sea, and the prestige of the Taishou Zhou Fugui of the East China Sea County is increasing day by day. Therefore, Mari and Li Song were a little scared.

Although the Malingshan mine mainly produces iron ore, there is also a little gold ore and silver ore, but Mali and Li Song have not filled their pockets...

"I heard that you have good wine here, why don't you ask Bentu to taste it?" Zhou Fugui sat in the wooden shed and asked with a smile.

"Haha, the Metropolitan Governor's nose is still smart..."Mali suddenly smiled with reassurance when he heard this: "It's all home-brewed, and it can't enter the mouth of the Metropolitan Governor." ”

Ma Li is also a Hu man who has followed Zhou Fugui for many years, and the Hu people are heroic, but they don't know so much etiquette.

When Mari, Li Song and others were guarding the mines, they ordered the miners to make some wine in their spare time, which was usually used for self-drinking to relieve fatigue. As a result, two taboos were committed, one was the system of wine, and the other was food.

The so-called system of liquor, also known as "liquor" or "liquor", is the system of monopoly purchase and monopoly of wine, which is not a new thing, and has existed since ancient times. In various dynasties, the cultivation and sale of liquor were managed more or less tightly.

Needless to say, the hungry and homeless people are all over the wilderness, and the food is not enough to eat, and it is still used to make wine? Therefore, Li Song repeatedly looked at Mali, but Mali was stupid and happy to be smug there.

However, judging from Zhou Fugui's expression, it seems that he didn't come to ask for guilt, or is he hiding a knife in his smile? At first, he smiled, then his face changed, he shouted, and asked for a knife...

"Mari, you have followed Ben Du for many years, and when you were lying in the snow and tasting the ice, did you forget? Back then, I was so thirsty that I drank horse urine, could it be that your wine... Why not as good as horse pee? After Zhou Fugui said a word, he seemed to ask casually: "How are you brewed?" ”

Li Song was afraid that Mali would talk nonsense and talk nonsense proudly, so he hurriedly replied for him: "It was made by the lower officials and others who ordered people to pick wild fruits in the mountains and brew them. ”

"Oh..."Zhou Fugui said with a real smile: "It turned out to be fruit wine, quickly present it and let Bendu taste it." ”

As long as it's not food, why should Zhou Fugui care about them? As for the wine system of the Yan Imperial Court, Zhou Fugui will not care about it. At the time of the epidemic, the Yan court ignored Donghai County, and at this time, he brewed some wine and drank it, could he still pay him taxes?

"Mali, you are also an old man who has followed the Governor, and you should know the Governor's intentions, and if the Governor finds out that you are using the miners' rations to make wine, you should also know what the consequences will be." When Li Song led people to carry the wine, Zhou Fugui told Mali to mediate. 33

"Don't worry, the last general is also a poor person in the grassland, how can he not know that food is life-saving?" Mali said hurriedly when he heard this.

Of course, the food of the steppe is mainly meat.

"Okay, Malihu..."Zhou Fugui looked at Malihu and said with relief: "One day, you will be allowed to drink real grain wine." ”

"Hehe, Dadudu, the last general is not rare to have any grain and wine..."Mali said with a smile: "Soft, just like the southerner women, far inferior to the mare's milk wine on our grassland, it's really good enough for his grandmother!" ”

"Hahahaha!" Zhou Fugui looked back left and right when he heard this, and burst into laughter with a group of personal guards.

Suddenly, several jars of fruit wine were carried up by several soldiers, and Li Song walked up to Zhou Fugui with a bowl of wine and said, "Governor, please taste it!" ”

"Well, you can taste it too!" Zhou Fugui said to Vi Wei and the others with a wine bowl.

So all the relatives and guards divided and drank it, and Vi Wei held the wine jar, poured half of the jar into his stomach in one go, and smacked his lips without changing his face, not committal, but it made Ma Li, Li Song and others feel painful.

It's not easy for them to make this wine.

Zhou Fugui also drank the wine in the bowl and praised: "Not bad, not bad, it tastes good, what is the secret recipe?" It can be implemented throughout the army. ”

In fact, the taste of fruit wine is not very good, it is sour and astringent, but it is indeed wine, and it has a faint hint of the fragrance of the mountains, so Zhou Fugui intends to implement it in the Xue Zhen Army and even in Donghai County.

This kind of low-alcohol wine tastes like a drink, and it can also relieve fatigue, but if you drink too much, you will get drunk, but as long as it is strictly controlled, there will be no chaos.

Later, this fruit wine promoted by Zhou Fugui is the better it is, the more sober and sweet it is, and the descendants will name this wine "Ma Lingxue" in order to commemorate Zhou Fugui and his Xue Zheng army.

"Governor, today you... Coming for this wine? Mari then asked.

"Of course not..."Zhou Fugui drank another bowl of sour fruit wine, wiped a handful of wine stains on his beard, and replied: "That prime minister... Still alive, right? ”

"Prime Minister?" Mali was stunned for a moment and replied: "Haha, that 'honorable' minister of state is living well, and he often recites the good of the metropolitan governor." ”

"What's good to read me?" Zhou Fugui smiled and waved his hand and said, "Bring him here." ”

"Yes!" Mali answered, and trotted down the hill.

"What good can he read me?" Zhou Fugui turned his head and asked to the evil way.

"If you don't kill him, it's the mercy of your master." He replied in a muffled voice.

"Yes!" Zhou Fugui nodded.

The so-called prime minister of Zhen Aoguo in the East China Sea, Gao Wenting, as the head of the thief, of course he should be killed, and it is not too much to kill him ten times, but Zhou Fugui left one of his lives and had other plans.

After a while, Gao Wenting brought it, and after bowing in front of Zhou Fugui, he looked at it squarely, with flat shoulders and back, and his arms stood in front of Zhou Fugui like a drum.

"Your manners...?" Zhou Fugui looked at Gao Wenting saluting and felt a little strange, so he asked.

"Hanli!" Gao Wenting replied.

"Of course the Governor knows that this is a Han ceremony, but you...? Is it Han? Zhou Fugui asked in surprise when he heard this.

"Definitely! The sinners were Koreans. Gao Wenting shook his head slightly when he heard this.

"Huh? Koreans? Why did you end up here? Zhou Fugui asked again.

When Zhou Fugui heard this, he carefully looked at Gao Wenting's appearance, Chinese face, high cheekbones, narrow forehead, single eyelids, triangular eyes... But this alone cannot judge whether what Gao Wenting said is the truth, the only thing that is certain is that Gao Wenting is not a nonsense person.

"The sinner is a Korean, and his family is ruined, so he lives here." Gao Wenting sighed and said sadly.

"Oh..."Zhou Fugui nodded when he heard this: "You may also be a poor person, and you are forced to become a thief?" It seems that if Bendu doesn't kill you, it's also providential? ”

"Thank you for not killing the Metropolitan Governor!" Hearing this, Gao Wenting arched his hand and said: "The sinners can be fed and clothed here, and I would like to thank the Metropolitan Governor and the people under your command." ”

"It seems that you are still living a leisurely life?" Zhou Fugui smiled when he heard this.

"Yes..."Gao Wenting replied when he heard this: "If you have food and drink, you don't have to work, why don't you be leisurely?" ”

Zhou Fugui said that the people who paid attention, of course Ma Lihu and the others would not let him do any heavy work, as long as he didn't run away.

"You are more comfortable than drinking wine in a big bowl, eating meat, dividing gold and silver on a large scale, and playing with women?" Zhou Fugui asked with a smile again.

"Huh? The Grand Governor... You... You, you, you... What does that mean? Gao Wenting stammered when he heard this.

"Ben Du has a doubt, I hope you will solve it." Zhou Fugui said after waving his hand.

"If the Governor has any doubts, please say everything, the sinners know and will speak, and there is no end to it." Gao Wenting nodded.

"Good!" Zhou Fugui smiled and then instructed Vi Evil: "Give him a bowl of wine, speak slowly, don't be in a hurry." ”

Hearing this, he poured a bowl of wine, snorted, and handed it to Gao Wenting with one hand.

Gao Wenting nodded in thanks and drank the wine in the bowl.

"Ben Du's doubts are..."Zhou Fugui sat on the Hu chair, cocked Erlang's legs, looked at Gao Wenting and said: "Since you are the minister of Zhen Aoguo, you must also have an extraordinary status in Zhen Aoguo, but you were captured by this governor, why did they ignore you?" Why did no one come to the Governor to discuss their release, nor did anyone come to their rescue? ”

Zhou Fugui set up a wooden plaque in Qu County, saving Gao Wenting's life, just to let Zhen Ao pirates send someone to negotiate peace with him, and this matter is extremely important. And after such a long time, the messenger of Zhen Ao Pirates has disappeared, and no one has delivered the news, which makes Zhou Fugui very puzzled.

"Governor, do you know anything about this matter..."Gao Wenting replied when he heard this: "Zhen Aoren has a strong temperament, stresses tooth for tooth, blood for blood, and never negotiates peace with the enemy. The sinners are in your hands, and whether you kill them or not, they will not let anyone come, and if they come, they will think that they are admitting defeat and submitting to them. ”

"I see..."Zhou Fugui suddenly realized when he heard this: "It seems that Zhen is proud of people... Gao Wenting, if this governor sends someone to go... Negotiate peace... What are you talking about? Retribution, when? How about this governor have people counseled with them for the sake of the people of Tohae? ”

Zhen Aoren didn't admit it, so Zhou Fugui had no choice but to admit it... This is also Zhou Fugui's consistent way of life, when it is time to admit it, you have to admit it...

The boat master was newly established, there was a lack of boats, people, and money, and Zhou Fugui had no way to take the Zhen Ao pirates in the depths of the sea.

Some people died, but not completely......
