Killing System, the Ultimate Killer
Chapter 73: Building Heavy Cavalry
"General, please give us two days, we will collect the silver and give it to you." Hu Yan said.
"Okay, I will wait for your good news." Sheng Huaian nodded.
The two Hu brothers stood up and said goodbye to go back to collect money.
After they went back, they took out all the money in the family, sold the land and property, and borrowed a lot of money from relatives and friends to raise 500,000 taels of silver.
They took out all their capital and money to gamble, which was undoubtedly a big gamble.
The two pulled 400,000 taels of silver into the wine shop, and the 400,000 taels of silver blinded many people's eyes.
Master Du and other winemakers, Xia He and other women, all looked straight, it was the first time they saw so much money.
The Hu brothers brought money and took away 3,000 jars of wine.
"Brother, take 1,000 jars of Xifenglie to Wuzhou, there are many sects there, many martial arts heroes, and martial arts heroes like to drink strong liquor." Hu Yan said to his brother Hu Xue.
"Okay, brother, I'll take these 1,000 jars of Xifenglie to Wuzhou." Hu Xue nodded.
"But, brother, how much does this Xifenglie cost per jar?" Hu Xue asked.
Hu Yan said, "It should be sold at least 500 per jar."
"500?" Hu Xue was shocked. This was too high.
"Brother, you have to believe that you have tasted the charm of this wine. I believe it is worth the price." Hu Yan said.
"Okay, I'll try my best."
Hu Xue led the caravan, pulled 1,000 jars of Xifenglie, and set off for Wuzhou in the wind and snow.
Hu Yan himself took 2,000 jars of green ant wine and set off for Luojing in the wind and snow.
Luojing has many dignitaries. This green ant wine is fragrant and relatively mild, suitable for dignitaries to drink.
The two brothers embarked on a gambling journey under the attention of the wealthy businessmen in Hexi County.
Sheng Huaian's wine shop made a profit of 400,000 taels of silver for the first time.
He took out 20,000 taels of silver to reward Master Du, Xia He and other women.
"Each master will be rewarded with 50 taels of silver, and Xia He and you will be rewarded with 10 taels of silver each." Sheng Huaian gathered everyone and said.
Master Du and others were overjoyed when they heard that they would be rewarded with 50 taels of silver.
But Xia He and others felt that it was too much.
"General, we don't need such a high reward. You have given us food and provided us with work. We are already grateful. How can we ask for such a high reward?" Xia He said.
Ten taels of silver, in the past, their family could not earn so much money in a year.
"I said I would reward you, so I will reward you. Listen to me and accept it. When you get married in the future, you will have enough money, right?" Sheng Huaian stopped Xia He from saying anything more.
The four or five hundred women looked at Sheng Huaian with gratitude in their eyes. Sheng Huaian was their light and their salvation.
After distributing the reward money,
Sheng Huaian continued, "Everyone work hard to make wine and strive to live a good life."
"General, don't worry, we will definitely work hard to make wine." With fifty taels of silver in hand, Du Fei has never felt so rich.
For Sheng Huaian's kindness, they can only repay him by working hard to make wine.
Now that he has money in his hands, Sheng Huaian is ready to start building heavy armored cavalry.
Find Wang Wu and ask him to find iron and armor craftsmen to start work immediately. Sheng Huaian can't wait.
"General, you really catch me and use me hard!" Wang Wu complained.
"What? Don't you want to see Fairy Qin Yao?" Sheng Huaian said lightly.
"I'll set off now and find them right away. I'll turn the whole Dingzhou upside down and tie up a group of iron and armor craftsmen." Wang Wu immediately changed his face and said.
"Go quickly, the faster the better."
"Okay!"
Looking at Wang Wu who left in a hurry, Sheng Huaian smiled and said, I can't control you.
As December came, the snow in the north became heavier, often covering the sky and the earth.
The green ant wine and the poem made by Sheng Huaian soon spread all over the world and were introduced to the capital.
The reputation of Green Ant and West Wind Lie spread far and wide.
The Hu brothers braved the cold and snow and experienced many difficulties to transport Green Ant and West Wind Lie to the capital and Wuzhou.
The phrase "Green Ant New Wine, Red Clay Small Stove, It's Snowing in the Evening, Can You Have a Drink?" made Green Ant Wine famous in the capital.
Hu Yan's two thousand jars of Green Ant Wine were quickly sold out at a price of three hundred taels per jar.
With six hundred thousand taels of silver notes in his pocket, Hu Yan almost fainted with happiness.
"The bet was right, the bet was right."
"I don't know how my brother is doing."
Hu Xue finally transported a thousand jars of West Wind Lie to Wuzhou. Even though he offered a price of five hundred taels per jar, it was quickly snatched up by those martial arts heroes.
With 500,000 taels of silver in hand, he couldn't believe it was true.
After making money, the two brothers' first reaction was to go back and increase their purchasing power and continue working.
Wang Wu also found a group of iron forgers and armor craftsmen for Sheng Huaian at a high price.
Sheng Huaian couldn't wait to buy pig iron and let the craftsmen start working to make heavy armor.
He also got a hundred jars of fine green ant wine and sent someone to deliver it to the Luojing Palace to offer to the emperor. The New Year is coming soon.
He has to take care of the big boss at the top. Maybe the empress will be happy and give him a promotion again.
Sheng Huaian also sent 50 jars of Xifeng Lie to Anning Pass to give to the old soldiers, General Yang Ye and others.
Yang Ye and others, after receiving Xifeng Lie, tasted the wine that was said to be miraculous.
"Well, not bad, this wine is strong enough, good wine, good wine!" Yang Ye's eyes lit up.
"Hehe, this wine is really strong, no wonder it is called Xifeng Lie, this is the wine we men drink."
"Good wine, a peerless wine! Drinking it makes the whole body warm, as if burning."
After tasting it, Sun Hao, Zhao Yongan and others couldn't help but praise it.
"This kid is amazing, he can write poems and brew wine, he is really a talent." Li Daoru said.
"General, how do we divide this wine." Everyone looked at Yang Ye, this was sent to them by Sheng Huaian.
"You each have three jars, and the rest are mine." Yang Ye said domineeringly.
"Don't, general."
"General, you can't do this."
Everyone wailed, such a good peerless wine, they only got three jars, forty jars, Yang Ye alone occupied twenty-five jars.
The old soldier looked at the ten jars of Xifeng Lie sent over, tasted them, and instantly captured him.
"Not bad, not bad, a peerless wine, this kid is thoughtful." The old soldier said with a smile.
"What's wrong, sergeant." Zhang Daniu asked.
"Nothing, you go out, don't come in." The old soldier said quickly.
"Oh oh!"
Zhang Daniu touched his head, not knowing why.
He didn't know that the wine Sheng Huaian sent him was swallowed by the old soldier.
......
Luojing was also snow-white. The heavy snow covered the capital, giving this ancient capital another kind of beauty.
In the palace, in the Zhenghe Hall, the empress Han Jiangxue was busy dealing with memorials.
The maid Han Yanran came and whispered: "Your Majesty, Sheng Huaian, the general of Hexi County in the northwest border, sent a hundred jars of green ant wine, saying that it was offered to Your Majesty for drinking during the New Year."
New Year is the New Year.
The New Year will be coming soon.
Han Jiangxue stopped reviewing the memorials, looked up at Han Yanran, and said:
"Green ant wine? Is it the green ant wine that has recently appeared in the capital, causing a lot of noise, and sold for three hundred taels of silver per jar?"
"That's right, Your Majesty, this wine was brewed by General Sheng."
"Green ant new wine, red clay stove, the sky is about to snow in the evening, can you drink a cup, it was also made by General Sheng." Han Yanran replied.
"Okay, you ask someone to take it, I'll try it in the evening." Han Jiangxue nodded.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
After reporting, the maid Han Yanran withdrew.
"Sheng Huaian!"
"He is an interesting person."
Han Jiangxue continued to review the memorials.
......
Since the craftsman's workshop started to make heavy armor, Sheng Huaian has stayed in the craftsman's workshop.
"At this speed, how long will it take to make a set of heavy armor?" Sheng Huaian asked a master.
"General, the fastest is one set a day." The master who made heavy armor replied.
A heavy armored cavalry, including the heavy armor worn by people and horses, needs to be made by hand.
"One set a day? Too slow."
One set a day, how long will it take to make a thousand sets, and how long will it take for him to form a thousand heavy armored cavalry.
By the time the heavy armored cavalry is formed, the opportunity will be cold.
"There is no way, the iron for making heavy armor is not in supply."
Hundred-forged iron requires blacksmiths to hammer it out one by one, and it is completely impossible to achieve mechanization, and Sheng Huaian can't make supporting industrial facilities by hand.
In order to increase production, Sheng Huaian can only continue to let Wang Wu find more blacksmiths, recruit more people, and roll up his sleeves to work.
Everything is for the heavy armored cavalry he has been thinking about.
A lot of money was poured in, which made Guo Xiaoping, Hu Bing, Wang Wu and others feel distressed.
