Chapter Fifty-Nine: Xin You's Counterattack
Fan Mi finished speaking and looked around.
He thought that he would be praised by the people, but unfortunately what he waited for was silence.
No one approved of him, and no one went along with him.
Of course, no one dared to stand up against him.
Fan Mi didn't understand why every time Xin said a big truth, someone always agreed.
I talked about it for a long time, but no one stood up to speak for me?
Including the close relatives of Fan's children.
But these are not important, the important thing is that Xinyi Doctor Xin You, connived at Chinese people to drink, this is an established fact!
That's enough!
"Is it all over? Lord Situ? Xin finally spoke again.
Fan Mi was stunned, it turned out that this guy was waiting for me to finish.
"It's over!"
Fan Mi responded.
He wanted to see how Xin could quibble.
"Lord Situ, that's a good point!" Xin opened his mouth again: "It is precisely with a character like Lord Situ that Xinyi can prosper day by day. ”
"Huh?" Fan Mi was completely confused, and Xin was ...... Praise yourself?!
Did he surrender? Are you going to voluntarily confess your guilt?
So it's so simple!
"Wine is cloudy, and the smaller the big state is mourning, it is not the wine but the innocent...... This sentence is to say that the demise of those large and small vassal states is inseparable from drinking too much, for example, yesterday, Fan Bing and Yin Luo fought, that is, drunk and disorderly, Fan Bing, who has always been honest on weekdays, even started beating people. ”
The eyes of the Chinese people all looked at Fan Bing.
Fan Bing was a little embarrassed, although he drank too much last night, he remembered a little bit about it.
"Don't blame me, gentleman, I was quite happy, but Fan Mu kept telling me that Yin Luo was talking bad about me next to me, and I couldn't help but ......"
"Fan Bing, let's be clear, I didn't say anything bad about you!" Yin Luo was anxious: "Didn't Fan Mu say that when you blamed the summer there, my family accidentally crushed your fence when cutting down trees, do you want to settle accounts with me?" ”
"What do I have to settle accounts with you? Do you want to count my summer soon? Fan Mu was also confused: "Can I say that I am small-minded and go against you everywhere?" ”
The two of you said a word, and gradually set their eyes on Fan Mu, who was sowing discord.
"Don't talk about it!" Fan Mi had a cold face: "Anyway, it's a fact that you drink and fight!" Who knows what you've said when you've drunk too much! ”
The two quickly lowered their heads, not daring to dwell on this matter anymore.
After all, drunk gaffes, who can tell what was going on at the time.
However, some Chinese people have different opinions, what happened last night, and different people already have different answers in their hearts.
"Situ is a lesson." Xin also said: "Drinking too much alcohol will inevitably cause such disputes, so there is no need to mention this matter again." ”
"Doctor Yi sees it clearly." Fan Mi Dao.
Xin continued: "Regarding the matter of drinking, I naturally agree with Situ's statement, you can't drink and make mistakes, and you can't lose your morality because of alcohol!" ”
"That's right." Fan Mi nodded.
It seems that Dr. Yi has finally relented.
"We drank yesterday to test the quality of this batch of new wine, which is the consistent tradition of our Xinyi Distillery, after all, our Distillery wants to pay tribute to the township."
In previous years, at the winery in Sinji, every time a pot of wine was brewed, some people would be invited to taste the wine.
This is to ensure the quality of the sake and is also a tradition.
However, in previous years, the people who tasted wine were generally Yi doctors and three elders, and the rest of the Chinese people only had to watch.
This time, Sim invited everyone to come and taste the wine.
Fan Mi squinted, and Xin said this again, apparently to find a valid reason for drinking last night.
"Generally speaking, only the doctor and the village sage are required for wine tasting, and all Chinese people drink alcohol, so it is inevitable that there will be a suspicion of gathering people to drink." Fan Mi retorted quietly.
"There is a saying in the wine, the only sister of the boy, the heir, the pure art, running for a long time. Zhao led the car, served Jia from afar, and raised his parents with filial piety. Parents celebrate, wash themselves, and use wine...... Do you know what this means? Xin asked rhetorically.
Fan Mi said: "It means, the remnants of Yin Shang!" Remain in your homeland with all your heart, planting the harvest with all your own hands and feet, and serving your father and brother diligently. Strive to lead oxen and chariots, go out into the land to trade, honor and support your father and mother; Parents must be happy and will prepare a hearty meal by themselves, and you can drink at this time. ”
Xin nodded again, deeply admiring Fan Mi's literary skills.
"Yes! The wine warns us that we can drink alcohol when our people can honor their parents through trading and farming, and when their parents are happy to cook with their own hands. This is the filial piety that my Zong Zhou practiced. ”
"But last night, the people of the country gathered, not at home." Fan Mi Dao.
"Home country, home country." Xin waved his hand again and walked to everyone: "Our Xinyi has been based on cultivating the land for generations, supplemented by winemaking, and part of the tribute of the Gongyi is replaced by wine. It can be said that winemaking is the most important thing for me in Xinyi besides farming! ”
The people nodded their heads, and they agreed.
Every year there is a surplus of grain, and they take it to make wine.
Or take a part of the tribute, or stay and buy and sell, in exchange for something else.
After all, wine is a little more expensive than grain.
"Yesterday, our new wine was brewed, and the price of this wine is eight times that of ordinary wine! If this wine can be sold smoothly, the funds obtained can definitely ensure that our old people in Xinyi have something to rely on and young children to support. ”
Xin spoke out in public about the benefits of sake brewing.
"Yes! The gentleman's new wine, just by selling a part of the Xinji Distillery, the money earned and the grain bought are enough for us to spend the winter in Xinyi! ”
Du Gan said.
The people also nodded: "That's right! This new wine is the wine of my Xinyi, if the city is rich and the accumulation increases, we don't have to worry about the winter and the famine year! ”
"Yes! Therefore, the one who destroys wine is my thief! ”
Everyone projected their anger on Yin Qiu and the others again.
Xin continued: "The old have something to rely on, and the young have something to support, if this is done, how can parents not celebrate? Xiao Wu traveled with me once and got two stones of grain, so I gave him the first pot of wine, which is also a piece of filial piety of Xiao Wu. ”
Fan Mi was speechless.
What kind of millet's filial piety is obviously Xinji's alcohol addiction.
But Xin had a good reason, and he couldn't even refute it.
"Other Chinese people in Xinyi work hard all year round, but it is still difficult to survive the winter, and some Chinese people still have to buy grain from large households at high prices. Yesterday, the Wu clan brought their grain to solve the food crisis in my Xinyi, everyone drank and celebrated in the township school, why not!? Could it be that Lord Situ and Master Sima can drink and have fun at home, but Chinese people can't drink a glass of wine in the township school!? Or do you not see the people of the country fed and happy? ”
Xin You's tone gradually became serious.
He did not avoid Fan Mi's question, but threw this question directly in front of the Chinese people.
Situ Fanmi and Sima Yinrong are all big families in Yizhong.
They naturally live more luxuriously than ordinary people, and the matter of drinking at home is well known to the country.
Hearing Xin say this again, the people seem to have confidence.
Oh, yes!
Isn't it just a glass of wine? Did Situ drink? I can't drink?!
"Doctor Yi, what you say ......"
"If there is a problem with what I said, you can ask the people behind you!" Xin pointed at Fan Mi and Yin Rong again: "On the contrary, I want to ask you, why did you deliberately destroy my winery, are you afraid that the new wine will be exchanged for food, and you will no longer be able to control the people with food?!" ”
