Xu Jie's heart skipped a beat.
He hurriedly asked, "General Zhao, do you know how precious this item is?"
Zhao Feng thought about it carefully. He received "filial piety" from his subordinates every now and then, so he asked back: "Is there any?"
Xu Jie: “…”
As soon as Zhao Feng saw his expression, he knew that he was thinking in the wrong direction. . .
He said: "It's just medicinal wine..."
Is it worth Xu Jie’s expression of “eyeing the prey”
Zhao Feng naturally knew that these fine wines had the effect of nourishing the muscles and bones. If he drank more, it would also speed up the circulation of Danfu's martial energy. His whole body would be soaked in the hot spring water, and thousands of pores would stretch and breathe, speeding up the recovery of physical strength and energy.
But Zhao Feng felt that the effect was similar to drinking precious tonic medicinal wine, and he didn't think this thing was that rare.
Let's take a step back.
Mr. Shen is so poor that his wallet is cleaner than his face. It is a rare item, so why is it limited to a daily supply in Fu Gu Department Store
Xu Jie's fiery heart cooled down a few degrees.
My sanity returned and I was ready to try this thing myself.
Seeing Xu Jie behaving out of character, Zhao Feng couldn't help but complain in his heart—the feng shui of this place, Fugu, was really weird.
After accepting the clothes and shoes that Xu Jie handed over, Zhao Feng talked to Xu Jie for a few more words about Shen Jun, and the latter stood up to say goodbye. Zhao Feng stood up to see him off, and when he came back, he opened a jar of wine with a puzzled look and took a deep sip of the clear aroma of the wine.
Wondering: "Nothing special..."
Tilt your neck back and as your Adam's apple rolls, the whole jar goes down your stomach.
In addition to the benefits he mentioned above, this wine also helps with sleep. Zhao Feng's sleep quality has been very good recently. He works during the day, drinks at night, and sleeps through the morning. Even on rainy days, the old joint injury that caused dull pain for a long time has not come back.
Zhao Feng didn't think this was a magical effect of wine.
He has been eating well, drinking well and sleeping well recently. As a martial artist, his body has a strong self-healing ability, so it would be abnormal if he really got injured.
Zhao Feng told this matter to his trusted subordinates.
The trusted official guessed, "General, do you think Mr. Xu has set his sights on the wine-making recipe in Mr. Shen's hands?"
Zhao Feng woke up from his dream: "Oh no, this is really possible."
He quickly put down the wine bowl in his hand, pulled his feet out of the basin, took out a towel and hastily wiped his big feet.
After putting on new clothes and shoes, he worriedly said, "This Xu Wenzhu is a man who will catch any dog that passes by his door and cook it for a taste of its meat. If there is any profit to be made, there is no guarantee that he will do something."
A trusted official said: "The general is worried..."
"Of course I'm not worried that Xu Wenzhu will take it by force." Zhao Feng hurried to the door of the tent, stopped, thought for a moment, and then turned back to continue drinking and soaking his feet: "No, even if he has this intention, the lord will not indulge him to do so."
Trusted subordinate: "What is that?"
Zhao Feng shook his head.
Said: "It's nothing, anyway Xu Wenzhu has money."
Zhao Feng had a hunch that this matter was not that simple.
Mr. Shen is a kind and sincere person, but the scholars under Mr. Shen are not. No matter how hospitable Gu Chi is, he would not explain the origin of these wines so clearly. Before today, Zhao Feng did not know that Mr. Shen's ancestors ran a wine business.
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong.
Gu Chi must have set his sights on Xu Jie.
But what is there to plot against Xu Jie
This guy is so poor that he only has money left.
So, the answer is obvious.
After coming to this conclusion, Zhao Feng was no longer panicked.
I quickly weighed the pros and cons in my mind.
Even if Fugu City and Heyin can restore people's livelihood, the subsequent development of this industry is not optimistic. If Shen Jun's wine can be made into a brand, some money can be taken out of Xu Wenzhu...
Well, it's a win-win situation.
The trusted subordinates were still puzzled.
Zhao Feng smiled and said, "If you don't understand, then you don't understand."
This matter will not affect the interests of Lord Wu Xian, Xu Wenzhu can also make a profit from it, and Shen Jun can also alleviate the financial crisis, killing two birds with one stone! In this way, he pretended to be deaf and dumb and just regarded it as a favor to others.
If Xu Jie accidentally lost money... There are risks in doing business. How can there be such a thing as making money without losing money
At the same time, Gu Chi was taking credit from Shen Tang.
Shen Tang, who was working overtime, said: "???"
"Didn't I ask you to find out Xu Jie's intentions..."
Gu Chi: "I have already found out about this matter."
This is not a difficult thing.
Xu Jie was a very cautious person, and Gu Chi did not try to sound out his intentions. This would be too deliberate and easy to be seen through. However, Xu Jie was not able to prevent Gu Chi's unconventional ways of being a scholar, and was completely tricked by Gu Chi.
Simply put, Xu Jie is a neutral.
There are two voices under Wu Xian's command.
The "fearful faction" headed by Qin Li.
The "ignore faction" headed by Tianhai's local powerful people.
Xu Jie is a neutral person who is not involved in either.
Wu Xian chose him as an envoy for his stance, and asked Xu Jie to come over to give a gift and contact Zhao Feng to find out what Shen Tang had been doing recently. Xu Jie's observations and attitude would largely determine Wu Xian's stance in the future.
Shen Tang listened for a while and was shocked.
"Wu Zhaode thinks highly of me?"
"Didn't I just trick him once?"
"Can't afford to play like that?"
Shen Tang cried out that he was wronged.
If Wu Xian were to target this makeshift team, their lives would be difficult. She was exiled at the beginning, and it was hard for her to find a place to live. She had put in a lot of effort and thought for it, so she couldn't just give it up.
Gu Chi was skilled in extracting the key points from Shen Tang's complex thoughts and said with a smile: "My lord, don't worry, the matter is not that serious. General Zhao has no complaints about us, and Xu Wenzhu is not someone who cannot be 'bribed'..."
Not only did he successfully complete the task of inquiring assigned by Shen Tang, he also performed beyond his normal level and was ready to take advantage of Xu Jie.
Shen Tang asked: "Wine?"
"Didn't the Lord notice?"
"What did you find?"
"The essence of the so-called spiritual transformation is to transform the literary or martial spirits that are transformed from the energy of heaven and earth into physical objects. This is not only true for the lord, but also for other literary men and warriors. The difference is that the things transformed by the lord can be used as food, and food can be absorbed by the human body, which means..."
Drinking is actually "drinking" the refined and pure Qi of Heaven and Earth! This is why after drinking, you will feel that the Danfu becomes active, and the Wenqi/Martial Qi consumed by the Danfu will also recover faster. The pure Qi of Heaven and Earth is easy to absorb.
This is the truth behind why "wine" is beneficial to literary men and warriors. It is very easy to understand when you put it bluntly.
But outsiders don’t know.
Especially Xu Jie.
I thought this was a wine-making recipe that had been passed down for hundreds of years.
Shen Tang understood Gu Chi's intention instantly. Was he planning to get something for nothing? Xu Jie not only had money, but also the seedlings and farm tools that had been bothering her these days. These could be exchanged for "wine", perhaps at a friendly price.
She admitted that she was moved.
There's nothing better than getting something for nothing.
only-
"... Wu Zhaode might be persuaded, but Qin Gongsu is not so sure. He is Yuan Liang's number one enemy and hater. How could he watch Xu Wenzhu do business with us? Even if it's just seedlings and farm tools, he won't give in easily..."
Gu Chi teased, "Qi Yuanliang is committing a sin."
Shen Tang said: "Don't say that about Yuan Liang."
Even though, every time Qi Shan makes an enemy, a boomerang will pierce her_(:з)∠?)_
Shen Tang had a feeling this wouldn't be the last one.
After saying that, he felt that his tone was too childish and tried to save Qishan's reputation: "Yuanliang didn't want this to happen. Fortunately, the person who came was Xu Wenzhu. Although he is a scholar, he is also the patriarch of the Xu family. It is impossible for him to see the lucrative monopoly business and not do it. Wangchao has already sprinkled the bait, just wait for the big fish to take the bait, but - don't be too deliberate."
Gu Chi understood: "Of course, my lord, don't worry."
"I have another matter here."
Shen Tang brought the plan.
Gu Chi looked carefully with the help of a small lamp.
"Earth bed?"
Shen Tang swept away the relief he had just felt, and said with a heavy heart, "It's still okay near Fugu, but many common people in the other two places in Heyin froze to death. The news just came in today, and 23 people died yesterday alone... I was thinking, why not try building a brick bed."
Since the house was still under construction, I just built it while I was at it.
Let me explain this on two sides.
Xu·DaYu·Xie is struggling with the "bait".
Not only did he drink it himself, he also let his attendants drink it.
This attendant was a servant who grew up with him. He was responsible for protecting his life and safety when he was outside. He was also a brave warrior. Although he was not very strong, he was very careful and could always find small details that ordinary people could not notice.
He was ready to listen to his attendant's drinking speech.
The attendant watched as several jars of wine were laid out in order.
He was silent for a moment, then asked, "Parent, do you want to drink all of this?"
Xu Jie said: "Drink all."
In the era of food shortage, people could not drink wine just because they wanted to. Most of the wines were rough and bland. The wines in Shen Tang's place were different. Even the attendants had never drunk such high-quality wine. One bowl after another.
Xu Jie asked: "How do you feel after drinking it?"
The attendant carefully sensed the situation in the Dan Mansion.
As soon as the wine entered his throat, it wasn't long before the Danfu felt like a sweet rain, and a light warmth flowed through his meridians to his entire body, as if he had taken a hot bath. This feeling was subtle, and hidden under the heat caused by the wine, it was easy to confuse it if you weren't careful.
The attendant explained his feelings in detail.
His cultivation speed is not fast.
But at this moment, he did not deliberately mobilize it, and the speed of the martial energy circulation in the Dan Palace was almost the same as when he was practicing!
"Parent, this is definitely not something that can be found in medicinal wine."
Xu Jie was not completely unaware either.
Thinking in his eyes: "What is Mr. Shen going to do?"
He tested Zhao Feng.
It was obviously the first time that Zhao Feng heard Gu Chi's "good wine-making recipe", which meant that the news might have been revealed specifically to him. Bai Ri did not shy away from sharing the "business secrets", and all these gestures of goodwill naturally had their own purpose.
The attendant guessed: "Befriend the parents?"
Xu Jie didn't think so: "Mr. Shen was very surprised by my appearance. Obviously, he didn't expect Tianhai to send someone here. How could he have planned against me in advance? How did he know that it was me? To make friends? Not entirely, but he did have a plan."
What are you planning
Xu Jie also had some idea in his mind.
He looked at the wine jar on the table which was emitting the aroma of wine.
He said with a smile: "It's hard to refuse."
