Volume 1 Sand Garden Rivalry Chapter 31 Five Stars in a Row

To purify fruit wine, glycerin is indispensable. And to make glycerin, there is also a by-product, soap.

Qin Zhong has already observed, and there is no soap on the market now. Ordinary people use soaphorn for laundry, which is troublesome to use, so you have to peel the skin and grind it into powder first. There are also ready-made ones in the market with incense powder, but the price is too high for most people to buy. For example, most of the Nancheng Xiang Army uses grass and wood ash.

As for face bathing, there are special bath beans. The pig pancreas is dried, ground into a paste, mixed evenly with soybean flour and spices, and after being dried naturally, it is a bath bean for bathing. This kind of bath bean is a high-end product, but only the rich and noble have the conditions to enjoy it. Qin Chong has used it, but compared with soap, the experience is very different.

After eating, Qin Chong and Qin Xiaoxiang followed home.

Along the way, Qin Xiao was silent, occasionally glancing at Qin Chong, and also quickly looking away.

When he was about to get home, Qin Xiao stopped and stopped talking.

"Big brother, do you have something to say to me?" Sensing that Qin Xiao was different, Qin Zhong opened his mouth and asked.

"Fangcai, you said you want to make wine?"

"Yes."

"Are you looking for a good market?"

"No, I didn't."

"Who supplies the raw materials?"

"Haven't negotiated yet."

"Is it distribution or home-run?"

"This?" Qin is heavy, there are so many things?

"If it's distribution, have you ever asked someone to take care of these things?" Qin Xiao said one item at the moment, Qin Chongzao was dumbfounded.

"If you don't think about these things, how can you open a business?" Qin Xiao said.

"Big brother, I don't understand this." Qin Chong cried and lost his face.

"I know you don't understand." Qin Xiao said, leaving Qin Zhong and turning around to go home.

"Big brother." Qin Chong was stunned for a moment before he hurriedly chased after him. His original idea was to entrust everything in the workshop to Lin Li to take care of, and only do key technical guidance by himself, as for other trivial things, he had no concept at all. After listening to Qin Xiao's words, he realized that what he thought was too simple.

Lin Li is just a craftsman who makes wine, and belongs to the people of the Lord. Others, such as raw material procurement, sales settlement, marketing, etc., are all outreaches, even if Lin Li understands, he is also lacking in skills.

"I'll go see my mother first, and I'll help you figure it out when I get back."

"Thank you, big brother."

Qin Chong stopped and watched Qin Xiao walk into the backyard before slowly returning to his West Cross Courtyard. Qin Chong never found out that his eldest brother was actually a business talent, and when it came to business, he was the first to do business. If it is possible, it is better to leave the workshop to him to manage. It's just that behind Qin Xiao is Aunt Liu, which makes Qin Zhong hesitate.

walked into the yard, but saw the second sister Qin Muyao, with Xiao Nizi and Juan'er, sitting under the tree. A few people looked for Go, and they had a lot of fun chattering. Among the three people, except for Qin Muyao, the other two girls are purely playing with chess pieces, no matter what strategy and tactics, if they are connected one by one, they will be finished.

"It's not fun." Qin looked at it twice, and suddenly opened his mouth and said.

"Yikes." The three girls screamed at the same time, and Qin Chong suddenly appeared, startling them.

"Huzi knows how to play Go?" Qin Muyao was quite surprised.

"No, it won't." Qin Zhong said, pulling with both hands, messing up the chessboard. "But I know backgammon."

"What is backgammon?" Qin Muyao hadn't heard of it, so she didn't believe it.

The backgammon was simple, Qin Zhong explained the rules, and the three of them learned it quickly. Qin Muyao is okay, but the two little girls have found fun, shouting and shouting and quickly throwing themselves into the fight, which is much more fun than Go.

"I went to the temple with my mother today and asked for a peace charm for you." Qin Muyao stretched out her little hand, holding a delicate peace charm, and handed it to Qin Chong's eyes, revealing a faint cinnabar taste.

"It's still my sister thinking about me." Qin Zhong stretched out his hand to take it and put it around his neck.

"Remember, be cautious in what you say and do, and don't act rashly." Qin Muyao lectured.

"Remember, remember." Qin Chong nodded repeatedly. This time, he had a little more trouble, first he was struck by lightning, and then he fought with Qingyun, and he was injured repeatedly. My sister felt sorry for herself, so she said so.

Qin Muyao preached a few words, then gently let it go, and turned her head to watch the two girls play chess. On the chessboard, the black and white chess pieces are vertical and horizontal, and as long as they form five pieces, they are considered to win. It's just that these two girls are novices and haven't figured out how to play yet. If you can't deal with it in a few rounds, you can connect into five sons, and you suddenly jump up.

"Today in the temple, listen to Master Hongguang." Qin Muyao suddenly said, "He said that he had calculated that in another half a month, there would be a five-star celestial phenomenon in the sky, which was a spectacle and a rare sight in a hundred years." ”

"Five-star alignment?" Qin nodded heavily, this is really a spectacle.

"There are records in the history books, the phoenix is in the court, Zhu Caosheng, Jiahe Xiu, manna run, Liquan out, the sun and the moon are like a combination, and the five stars are like a bead." Qin Muyao thought that Qin Chong didn't understand, so she explained to him.

According to legend, when Emperor Shun ascended the throne, there were five stars in the sky. It is believed by later generations that the five-star alignment is a sign of auspiciousness. Moreover, the year of Emperor Shun's accession to the throne was determined to be the year of Jiazi, and the Ganzhi chronology began from there. ”

"My sister knows so much." Qin Chong had to convince that Qin Muyao was a scholar.

"It's a perfect match for your backgammon." Qin Muyao enjoyed her brother's worship very much, put her hands behind her back, and gracefully turned in a circle, revealing a smile that made Baihua shy.

Looking at Qin Muyao's face, Qin Chong felt dizzy and hurriedly lowered his eyes. My sister is naturally beautiful, beautiful and moving, and she is pleasing to the eye when she looks at it every day. However, the thought that she would eventually get married suddenly felt melancholy. I slandered unconsciously in my heart, and I don't know which bastard, after eight lifetimes of cultivation, was able to marry his sister.

"When the days are endless, this hatred will never end."

Qin Chong chanted with indignation, as if he had been weathered, turned his back and walked towards the room.

"Inexplicable." Qin Muyao wrinkled her nose, not knowing what Qin Chong sighed. Turning his face, seeing that the two girls were playing lively, he threw away the reserve of the eldest lady and quickly joined the battle group.

Qin returned to his room, spread out his pen and paper, and planned to write a list. In order to extract glycerin, there are several things that still need to be prepared. Hold a brush. Qin Chong was a little distracted. In his previous life, his calligraphy was extremely bad, and his pen and pen writing were average. However, in this life, he writes well with a brush.

This is the credit of the master of the academy and his sister Qin Muyao, who practiced by pulling his ears.

"Well, ten catties of lard, one catty of lime, two jars, and an eye to drill underneath." Qin Zhong worked hard to think about the objects he needed, remembered a sentence, and wrote it on the paper in a dignified manner.

"And two copper pipes, how long?" He gestured and wrote three feet. Stumbling and stumbling, I finally wrote down everything I remembered. That's all, we'll talk about it when it's missing.

"You don't need to buy incense powder, I have it in my sister's house." Qin Zhong muttered and blew on the ink.

When he went out of the room, he called Sanfanger, pointed to the words on the paper, and explained it clearly. No way, the three satiety children are illiterate. After explaining, I didn't forget to show off to Sanfeng'er, "See? What a beautiful word. ”

"And, the spring worm and autumn snake are written, and they still show off?"

Before San'er could speak, Qin Muyao, who was playing chess, pouted and laughed very unceremoniously. I think that when Qin Chong learned calligraphy, it was because she coaxed and threatened that she was unsatisfactory today.

"Where does it look like a snake? Where are they like earthworms? Qin Chong suddenly stopped.

Qin Chong was so angry here, and the three girls laughed together. Sanfeng'er couldn't help but laugh, looked at the list seriously, and said, "Well, the third young master's handwriting is much better than mine." ”

"Get out." Qin Zhong roared angrily, didn't want to deal with them anymore, and turned around and went back to the room.

It's so devastating.

In the yard, there was even more laughter.

............

In the evening, two fast horses galloped out of the cavalry camp and headed for the northern city.

Immediately, the two of them, one is Du Yu Hou Chang Wanli, and the other is Shi Yong, the head of the infantry army, both with solemn faces. The two of them kept whipping and urging the war horses, speeding up again and again, as if there were 100,000 urgent things. Indeed, the two of them have 100,000 urgent matters that must be reported to Jingzhao Mansion. But the Xiao Cavalry Battalion does not have this authority, and can only pass through the Shayuan Prison.

Shi Yong's interrogation in the afternoon made significant progress. Although the Wolf Mountain bandits were strong, they couldn't survive the torture, and finally had a nervous breakdown and confessed. This opening immediately startled Shi Yong. The confession was too important, Shi Yong didn't dare to be self-conscious, and immediately invited Chang Wanli, and the two of them testified together.

Of the three Wolf Mountain bandits who were arrested, one of them was named Ma Dun, and his identity was not ordinary.

According to his confession, three years ago, the bandits in Wolf Mountain united. According to the number of Tiangang, it is divided into 36 halls.

And Ma Dun is the deputy hall master of the Heavenly Damage Hall, who was ordered to lurk in the Shayuan Prison. And his authority is not limited to Shayuan Prison, the entire counties of Tongzhou, and even the surrounding Heyang, Pucheng, Chengcheng, and Yongji are all under his jurisdiction. Only in Shayuan Prison, there are more than 20 people lurking in Wolf Mountain, both men and women, and it is extremely secretive.

When it comes to Dali and other counties, there are more lurking people, and their identities are also varied.

As the interrogation deepened, Chang Wanli was already sweating on his forehead, like pins and needles.

This matter is too big for the cavalry battalion to deal with, and must be reported to the authorities. Due to the wide scope of involvement, it is even more impossible to make hasty arrests. Otherwise, it is absolutely not advisable to startle the snake and catch one and miss ten. The two briefly discussed, brought a confession, and rode out of the barracks. As soon as possible, report to the Shayuan Supervisor.

In addition, he was in a hurry, and with Chang Wanli's arrangement, he went straight to the capital and reported to the guards and the Ma Jun Division.

Supervisor Fei Boyan, in his forties, has a long haircut and a clear face. Serious Jinshi and first, protΓ©gΓ© of the Son of Heaven. However, his career was not smooth, and he was an official for more than 20 years before he was promoted to the seventh grade. Perhaps knowing the destiny of heaven, he no longer drills upwards, but is willing to sit in the sand garden prison, with a group of beautiful concubines, and the warblers sing and dance every day.

Faber said that he was lazy and did not go to the yamen for three or five days. All affairs should be pushed to the supervisor and the master. When Chang Wanli found him, Faber was drinking and having fun at home, and he was already drunk.

But the three words of the wolf mountain bandit were like a scoop of cold water, which suddenly poured on his head. was drunk, and suddenly sobered up for seven or eight minutes. grabbed the confession and hurriedly skimmed through the ten lines at a glance, Faber Yan's hands and feet were cold, and cold sweat was flowing on his back. There was such a shocking case under his jurisdiction?

Faber couldn't believe it, and stared straight at Chang Wanli.

"Is this true?" Faber Yan's hands trembled, and the confession was held in his hand, making a loud noise.

"It's true to go back to prison." Chang Wanli bowed and replied, "Three people have been captured and are now imprisoned in the Xiaoqi camp." ”

Faber didn't ask again, knowing that this matter would not be fake, Chang Wanli didn't have the courage to do so. After settling down, Faber began to think about how to deal with it. In this matter, Faber Yan is already to blame. If it is handled well, it can also reduce the guilt and offset the merits and demerits; If it is not handled properly, I am afraid that it will reduce the number of officials and salaries, and even the official body will be difficult to protect.

The Wolf Mountain bandits are famous, and Fei Boyan naturally knows about it.

It is precisely because of the famous name of the Wolf Mountain Bandit that his responsibility is even heavier.

"Fucking bad luck." Faber scolded in his heart.

"Someone's coming." Fei Boyan called the little servant and instructed, "Go and invite Lei and Yao, there is something important to discuss." ”

"Yes." The little guy answered, and ran out.

"Drink tea." Fei Boyan raised the teacup, took a sip, and said lightly.

"Don't dare to disturb the deliberations of the supervisor, I will retire." Chang Wanli is proficient in the doorway, how can he lick his face and really sit down to drink tea? Quietly touched Shi Yong's arm, bowed down and clenched his fists, and exited the hall.

"Aren't you still going to discuss?" Shi Yong asked at a loss.

"What do you have to do with the deliberations of the ministers?" Chang Wanli pouted, his heart said, soil buns.

The title of Xianggong is naturally a flattering word. This is what readers love to hear. If you really want to reach the level of Xianggong, you have to be the prime minister of a country. At the very least, it has to be a governor to be able to be called a minister. It takes a lifetime of chasing, and even a lifetime of exhaustion, and you can only sigh with admiration.

Lei Bin and Yao Pingyuan, who came after a while, one was a prisoner and the other was a master. With the addition of the supervisor, the three jinshi and the first, the real ruler of the Shayuan prison. They were deliberating, and the two warriors stayed in the hall, didn't they wait for someone to go out? Why bother to be bored and leave early.

Chang Wanli glanced at Shi Yong with disgust and strode out.

The rest of the matter has nothing to do with the Xiao Cavalry Battalion.
