Chapter 19 Quick Items (9)

It was dark, so naturally a wealthy family in the village invited the captain to live there. Huo Chong, Xu Youlin, and Zhu Erniu led their people to stay in the workshop.

During the day, I had to call others for dinner, but it was finally my own turn to eat. Before I could take out the dishes and heat them up again, and with other food, a large table was set up. Huo Chong sat down. Except for Xu Youlin, he was still looking at Huo Chong who was sitting in the main seat and ordered the meal to start.

Huo Chong didn't say anything, nor did he move his chopsticks. According to Shandong's rules, everyone else was waiting honestly. Not long after, Huo Chong's junior brother Shi Wang brought a bowl of steamed rice over.

When Liu Shiwang sat down, everyone was also attracted by the steamed rice. Judging from the ingredients, the steamed rice contained rice, rice, millet, sorghum, soybeans, red beans, dates, walnut kernels, and even some green and red shreds. It was indeed very rich.

In terms of appearance, this steamed rice that was obviously steamed in a pot and turned upside down in a basin has a layer of golden red translucent thing on the outside. Ordinary grains and fruits are covered with this layer of things, and immediately there is a sense of mystery.

Huo Chong directly picked up a bottle of glass bottle of strong wine, and tons of tons of tons poured a lot of gold-red translucent malt sugar on this layer of golden red translucent malt sugar. It ignited the strong wine, and a light blue flame rose from the rice. After a while, the malt sugar was heated and emitted a sweet smell mixed with the aroma of wine. Many of the people around him could not help swallowing.

When the flames were extinguished, the sweet taste had turned into a burnt and sweet taste. Huo Chong then said to everyone: "Eat."

According to the rules, the elderly will start eating here first. Huo Chong picked up some with chopsticks and put them into his mouth. Sure enough, the caramel taste mixed with the taste of pure green grains, and there is a little wine aroma, which is indeed delicious.

It was the first time that everyone else saw such a cool way to eat flames. They were careful and unwilling to let go of the chopsticks at this food that could be called a dessert. After a while, everyone praised it.

It’s really easy to work, and there are fewer people to eat. This big portion was eaten in a moment. Starting with such a classic dessert, the banquet for my family began.

The wine was made by Huo Chong, and everyone was still not used to it. But not getting used to it does not mean not getting drunk. Soon Zhu Erniu drank it. He placed the chopsticks heavily on the table. The above-headed ones emphasized without knowing it and said loudly: "Brother Huo, it's all your fault!"

Huo Chong saw Xu Youlin's surprised expression and smiled at him, "Brother Xu, we can drink more of this soju wine in one cup."

"I didn't drink too much! I didn't drink too much!" Zhu Erniu expressed disagreement with Huo Chong's statement with the standard appearance of a high-drinking guy. "Today they want to smash my workshop, and I will definitely ask them to come back in the future."

Xu Youlin lowered his head and looked at his expression. He almost covered his mouth and laughed out loud.

Zhu Erniu was completely unaware of it, staring at Huo Chong and continued to shout: "Brother Huo, brother Huo, I will follow Brother Huo from now on. My workshop is Brother Huo's workshop!"

Although Zhu Erniu said something sober, Huo Chong didn't care. If Zhu Erniu dared to sober up and then went to join Mr. Zhu, Huo Chong felt that he would stuff Zhu Erniu into the trough to make human wine.

Zhu Erniu was talking about what he said after drinking, and drinking while talking, suddenly shed tears and choked up. What he said later was something unknown. Seeing that Zhu Erniu was too inappropriate, Huo Chong could only go over and give Zhu Erniu a hug of love. Unexpectedly, Zhu Erniu held Huo Chong tightly and suddenly cried bitterly, as if he had lost his parents.

Huo Chong felt that he was just asking for help. He would definitely end like this if he dealt with a drunkard.

After finally persuading Zhu Erniu, the third junior brother Li Tieniu had already grabbed Huo Chong's arm and started crying, "Senior Brother, the second senior brother beat us today. After all, he is the second senior brother, how can he beat me!"

Another drunken man, Huo Chong sighed. But for so many years, the third brother was beaten by the second brother Zhu Youquan, so it would be strange if he was not uncomfortable.

With these two people taking the lead, the table was lively. They cried drunk, cried drunk, persuaded drunk, and expressed their loyalty. After all this, Huo Chong finally placed them on the bed one by one. There were only two people left in the yard who had not drunk too much.

As soon as he sat down, Xu Youlin, who had been silent, spoke, "Huo... Huo... brother..."

OK! It seems that he is the only one who hasn't drunk too much. Huo Chong revised his previous opinion. Then Xu Youlin continued: "Brother Huo, this wine... is so amazing."

Huo Chong explained: "If I brew some wine like water, how can I take it out?"

"No need to say, I...I know..., you ordered that thing for me to show it. There are so many uses of this wine." Xu Youlin's eyes were straightened, but the words he said were reliable at least.

Huo Chong really didn't want to take care of a drunkard who hadn't drunk too much, so he directly raised Xu Youlin and threw it on the bed, and squeezed into bed with a few people to sleep.

After getting these goods done, Huo Chong walked back to the yard. The table was in a mess, but Huo Chong didn't want to clean up. The previous bunk had already been removed, and now the drunkards were sleeping soundly on them.

A few bundles of wheat straw were taken out from the fire and spread them in the yard. Huo Chong lay down in his clothes. The sky of this era was extremely pure, and the stars were drooping as if they were within reach.

The crisis seemed to be coming to an end. All that was left to do was to fight back to his hometown and fight Zhu Youquan and his gang who occupied the house. Before the captain came, Huo Chong undoubtedly needed to defeat all the opponents first. I don’t know how Xu Youlin managed the government. Now the group of people who support Zhu Youquan behind know that Huo Chong has someone in the government. Only Zhu Youquan needs to deal with is the only one left.

As he thought about it, Huo Chong opened his eyes and saw that it was dawn. It turned out that he had been sleeping all night.

The air was cool in the morning, and the bright clear sky was blue and high. Huo Chong got up from the grass and saw Xu Youlin coming from the toilet. When he saw Huo Chong, he said, "Brother Huo, don't sleep for a while." At this time, he spoke clearly, and there was no drunkenness that last night was like.

"Brother Xu, I've made you spend money." Huo Chong sighed. Xu Youlin couldn't afford this money alone, so Huo Chong had to bear half of it. But now his pocket is empty, so he can only...

"No money is spent. Magistrate Xu is my own family. Magistrate is willing to help you with this." Xu Youlin replied calmly.

Huo Chong was really stunned, as if, probably, Xu Youlin had said something similar at some point.

Seeing Huo Chong's appearance, Xu Youlin pulled a stool and sat down, snorting coldly: "Hmph! Brother Huo is really a noble man who forgets things. When you pinched my neck and threatened me, you said you were going to announce the official."

"Oh...ah...it's...that's what's going on." Huo Chong finally remembered. It's like that. It's just...

"I asked my family to send someone to lock you up, and the money would still be spent. In the end, I'm afraid I won't get anything back. Besides, Brother Huo, I recognized what you said. We are grasshoppers on the same rope." After sobering up, Xu Youlin was very clear-headed.

Huo Chong felt that it was meaningless to say more, so he could only say, "I have recorded this relationship. If Brother Xu knows where the person who lied to you is, I am willing to help."

Xu Youlin waved his hand bitterly, "I'll talk about that later. I'll go to the canal today and bring my people back. Brother Huo quickly steam wine and make bottles. Also, Brother Huo won't just use glass to make bottles, right?"

Huo Chong was also happy that his partner was so inspiring. "Of course, I will make glass into devices as soon as possible. I think it will sell better."

Xu Youlin didn't say much, took some of the things on the table that he had not finished eating yesterday and went out.

Huo Chong and his junior brothers woke up, ate some food, and headed straight to the house. The junior brothers didn't say anything along the way. When they arrived at the door, they saw the door closed. Huo Chong was about to climb over the wall directly, and then he heard the junior brother say, "Senior Brother, why don't we call the door?"

This suggestion made Huo Chong unhappy, but then he thought about it and said to his third junior brother Tie Niu: "Tie Niu, knock on the door."

Li Tieniu strode forward and knocked on the door hard. Not long after, the door actually opened. The third junior brother Li Tieniu quickly retreated, but the person who opened the door did not close the door. Not long after, the door was fully opened, and the number seven or eight people came out. The second senior brother Zhu Youquan walked out with a dark face and shouted at Huo Chong: "Huo Chong, where did you hide your master's money?"

Haha! Huo Chong couldn't help laughing. It seemed that this fool Zhu Youquan had searched the house thoroughly. I just didn't know if he had dug three feet into the ground.

In terms of timing, this is indeed the best time. But no matter how wonderful the time is, once you get the basic facts wrong, the more exquisite the action is, the more ridiculous it will look. Zhu Youquan must have thought that Master Uncle Liu left all the money to Huo Chong. He probably never expected from beginning to end that Master Uncle Liu took all the money and ran away.

But I knew in my heart that Huo Chong would never take the blame. So Huo Chong shouted with a stern face: "Zhu Youquan, you have taken the master's money and dare to turn the tables..."
