From all the countries on the continent, except for Steppe Wolf and the Southern Xinjiang tribe, which had no visitors, the other four empires had a large number of people from each empire. [△网WwW.]

And every general made a similar request.

"The general is celebrating a banquet, can you leave a hundred altars for me? I would like to ask General Tie to reward me with a favor. Brothers from my country who cannot come to this banquet, whether they are alive or dead, also want to drink a glass of this wine that is exclusively for soldiers!"

"Can you reserve a thousand pounds for Marshal Iron's wedding banquet? The men in our army... those who can't come are looking forward to it with eagerness!"

Thinking of these words, Tie Zheng just wanted to scold his mother.

I can't afford it in our country, so why should we reserve it for you? Are you thinking too much

Of course, there is plenty of wine.

As long as you have money, you can buy even tens of millions of jins of wine, let alone millions of jins of wine!

There are more than tens of thousands of restaurants in the Yutang Empire alone that make wine. Where can there be a shortage of wine

All restaurants are happy to place orders for Generalissimo Tie Zheng’s wedding banquet!

But, but, but, the problem is... Tie Zheng doesn't have that much money to pay for the drinks!

Tiezheng's wedding banquet caused a sensation among the military forces of various countries across the continent. The wine used in the wedding banquet must not be too low-grade. It is of lower quality and cannot be used to entertain the guests. After all, this time the guests are being entertained by Youguan Yutang Guoti!

Almost all the senior military generals from the major empires are here!

If you don't bring out the good wine, how can you get through it

If you really use that kind of bad wine that can cost ten pounds for one tael of silver... Do you want to drink all the generals of the hostile countries to death here

That would really cause trouble!

And good wine that can be served at the wedding banquet, even the cheapest kind, costs ten taels of silver per pound!

And even if this kind of wine costs ten taels of silver per catty, the entire wedding banquet will need to weigh at least two million catties!

That’s twenty million taels of silver!

Where can Tiezheng have so much silver

Tie Zheng smashed and sold all his bone marrow... and now he can't get enough.

Because of this matter, Marshal Tie has been frowning and sighing every day for these days.

His Majesty just raised funds... and emptied everyone's pockets. I don't even have a place to borrow money...

He doesn't regret the decision he made, he's just worried!

Silver!

Silver!

Sometimes Tie Zheng is too worried to sleep at night, thinking: How about sending 20,000 people in ten directions to suppress the bandits

That... can be regarded as a way to make money and a solution...

"Commander!" The leader of the personal guard said: "Is there someone from the Ma family asking for a meeting?"

"Who?" Tie Zheng asked impatiently: "Which Ma family?"

"It's the Ma family, known as... the Golden Horse, the No. 1 restaurant in the Yutang Empire." The guard leader said excitedly: "It's their young boss Ma Chenglu who is here."

"Tell him to come in."

Tie Zheng was puzzled. The Ma family's wine has always been high-end. The cheapest wine among all the wines seemed to cost seven or eight taels of silver per catty. It was obviously not in harmony with the wine he used for his wedding banquet. They came here to find it. What are you doing

When Mr. Ma arrived, his first words made Tie Zheng overjoyed: "I've heard for a long time that Marshal Tie is getting married. We happen to have a batch of wine that has been backlogged for a long time... We are willing to sell it to Marshal at the lowest price. Please give me a reward." face."

"How much wine?" Tie Zheng couldn't help but become interested after hearing this.

"Four million catties!" Ma Chenglu said: "One jar is twenty catties, making a total of two hundred thousand jars!"

"So many!" Tie Zheng was startled. Then he thought: These wines must be enough for this wedding banquet.

But... what about the price

Thinking about it, Tie Zheng asked. When he asked, he felt a little weak: "How much does it cost per pound?"

He thought to himself, since the fine wine produced by Jin Ge Tiema Ma's family has been in the backlog for a long time and has not been sold, it is probably the kind of high-end fine wine. Even if it is sold at a low price, it will probably only cost fifteen or twenty taels, right? If it's twenty taels, that's eighty million taels of silver... If this guy really comes up with a figure that's similar to this, I'll beat him out!

Look at me, do I look like someone who is taking advantage of 80 million taels? Are you here to play a trick on me? ! Not to mention 80 million, I only need 20 million now, why am I so worried

"How about these four million kilograms of wine from me, priced at six million taels of silver!" When Mr. Ma Chenglu said this, he was filled with emotion in his heart.

Yun Yang!

My Lord Yun, why do you do this

A total of thirty million taels of silver, just thrown out without blinking an eye. Don’t let others know yet…

But how did Ma Chenglu know that not only the 30 million taels for the wine, but also the money that Tiezheng was about to pay for the wedding and the wine came from Yun Yang!

After His Majesty the Emperor's troubles, money in Yutang City is now unprecedentedly tight, and few people dare to make large money transactions. Tie Zheng's original plan of selling his two manors and exchanging rewards for money over the years has never been able to take shape. No one wants it. If not, why would Yun Yang go to such trouble!

"Can't afford... what?!" Tie Zheng just subconsciously said these three words, and his eyes suddenly widened: "Tell me, how much does it cost?!"

He could hardly believe his ears.

Six million taels? Four million pounds? One, two, five, and a pound of silver? so cheap

"Could it be...a bad bar?" Tie Zheng looked at Ma Chenglu suspiciously.

This is probably the only explanation. Otherwise, why can it be so cheap? It must be bad wine, or why it has been overstocked for a long time!

"In order to reassure the commander-in-chief, I brought a hundred jars here today." Ma Chenglu said, "It's right outside. The commander-in-chief can have a taste for himself."

A jar of wine was brought in.

But just looking at the appearance of the wine jar, Tie Zheng fell in love with it right away.

The cyan wine jar is not the usual oval shape, but rather elongated with sharp edges and corners. A large piece of red cloth sealed the mouth of the altar.

Red like blood!

On the red cloth are three large black characters.

"Heroic Blood".

Just this jar, this piece of red cloth, and these three words made Tie Zheng's eyes turn red instantly.

Even if this wine is a little inferior, I still want it!

On the back of the jar, there are still fourteen small characters written on this piece of red cloth.

Protect your family and country with your heart and blood, and build your country with your iron bones and loyal soul!

Tie Zheng looked at it as if he was struck by lightning. He was stunned for a moment, and tears suddenly flowed out.

When the wine was poured out, it was as red as blood and the aroma was fragrant.

With trembling hands, Tie Zheng picked up a bowl and drank it all in one gulp, only to feel a hot ray of heat rushing straight into his throat. Immediately, a fire burned directly in his stomach!

"Good wine! Really good wine!" Tie Zheng's words were accompanied by tears: "My brothers... will definitely be satisfied!"

He asked with a trembling voice: "Are all wines of this level?"

"Yes!" Ma Chenglu said loudly: "If one bottle is of poor quality, I will not charge you any money for all the wine!"

Tie Zheng took a deep breath, grabbed Ma Chenglu's hand and said with great gratitude: "Thank you!"

Which military man is not good at drinking

The same goes for Tie Zheng. How can I not drink it? The quality of this wine is not only not inferior at all, it is absolutely superior!

One, two, five, and a pound of silver is no different from giving it away for free!

At such a price, I'm afraid Mr. Ma's family will lose a lot of money!

Ma Chenglu hesitated for a moment and said: "Commander, don't worry, the Ma family did not lose too much in this transaction. It was entrusted by others... The people that Marshal should thank should not be us."

He finally said it.

Tie Zheng was shocked: "Who?"

"This, please forgive me for not being able to tell you." Ma Chenglu said: "That person repeatedly warned me not to reveal it... Please don't embarrass me, Commander-in-Chief."

"I wish you a happy wedding, Marshal." Ma Chenglu took two steps back and saluted to say goodbye: "I also hope that the brothers in the army can drink and drink happily. I take my leave."

"Wait a minute." Tie Zheng stopped him: "I'll bring you the banknote, and you can take it away."

Tie Zheng took out the banknote and insisted on paying two million more, but Ma Chenglu firmly refused and went home with six million taels of banknote in hand.

That afternoon.

The army dispatched troops and cooperated with Ma's Trading Company to continuously deliver carts of fine wine into Tiezheng's mansion.

The two large warehouses that were vacated early were filled in as little as a cup of tea.

Then in the yard, a group of military men were sweating profusely, stacked neatly and as steady as a mountain!

The whole yard was full, and only less than a third of the weight was put down.

A piece of land was simply bulldozed outside the yard, surrounded by military camps, and wine was stored in the middle.

Until Zhou Zheng was completely defeated, all the thousand soldiers were sweating profusely.

"Hurry up and open a few jars. Brothers have worked hard. Let's have a drink first to soothe our minds." Tie Zheng said and was about to move the wine.

Then the two guards rushed forward and hugged him tightly: "Commander... No, no, no!"

Tie Zheng turned around and looked at the soldiers with beads of sweat on their faces in surprise: "Aren't you tired? What if I invite you to drink some of my general's wedding wine in advance? I won't give you any face. General?"

"No, no, no..." A guard swallowed saliva in his throat, with a simple smile on his face: "No need... This is not only the handsome man's wedding wine, but also... It is also the wedding wine of all our living and dead brothers, all living and dead. My brother's wedding wine... If it were any other time or other wine, I would have drank it. But if I drink this wine before that day... I feel guilty."

"We completely understand the Marshal's mood, but now, we really understand it." The guard leader said seriously: "Wait... After the Marshal's wedding, if there is anything left, we will drink it again. If it is because I drank a few jars today, but this few jars were missing on that day... Even if the brothers died immediately, they would be so embarrassed that they would have no face to see the dead brothers under the Nine Springs."

Looking at the sincere faces, Tie Zheng felt that his throat was suddenly blocked.

"… good!"

"Brothers!"

Tie Zheng staggered into the room, suddenly burst into laughter, and yelled to the sky: "Brothers! Have you seen these wines! Have you seen them! This is... my wedding wine, our wine! Your wine!"

By the time I said the last few words, my voice was completely hoarse!
