Chapter 9 Good Wine

The Great Wall has finally begun to be built.

After a big victory, Linzhao City was filled with a festive atmosphere. Meng Kuo even waved his hand and set up a flowing banquet outside Linzhao City. The whole city was actually about 10,000 or 20,000 people.

After a night of carnival, before dawn, Yu Zhigan was awakened by a rumbling sound, and saw a group of civilians who had already started working and began to build the Great Wall.

“What are you doing when digging the soil?”

"Digging soil is used to build the Great Wall!"

Meng Kuo got up quite early. Yesterday, he saw this guy drinking a lot of wine. Yu Zhigan tasted it, which was probably the same as the beer in later generations. However, this guy drank three jars in a row with a jar, which made Yu Zhigan curious about how this guy's waist was, but it was not convenient to go there. At least he didn't go there last night from about six or seven o'clock to the few hours when Yu Zhigan returned to sleep!

"Let the civilians stop and have breakfast first. The Great Wall doesn't need to be repaired like this!"

Hearing Yu Zhidian's words, Meng Kuo touched his head: "Here!"

At around seven o'clock in the morning, after the workers finished their breakfast, they began to get busy. A group of civilians watched from a distance. They were very curious about how the workers brought by the gods worked!

Soon, all the civilians knelt on the ground, and Yu Zhigan transformed from generation to generation of cement out of thin air. Then the workers made clear division of labor. Some people moved the cement away, some drove the water truck to the river to pump water, and finally they were sent to a mixer.

"Supreme immortal, what is this?"

"Cement, let the civilians go to collect stones. By the way, using these tools, your bronze stones are too inefficient!"

After saying that, Yu Zhi waved his hand and 20,000 hammers appeared on the open space: "You will ask the civilians to hammer the stones and hand over the mining of the stones to Zhu Baba!"

Yu Zhigan waved his hand, and Zhu Baba drove over with an excavator, but this time the excavator was not a bucket, but a drill bit, which was the kind of drill that could drill holes in the rocks and quickly mine rocks.

"good!"

Meng Kuo immediately ordered the tasks arranged by Yu Zhigan. Not far from Linzhao City, there was a small hill. Zhu Baba drove over slowly with an excavator, while the civilians lined up to take the hammer.

Meng Kuo took out an iron hammer, weighed it hard, took out the guard's bronze sword, and smashed it hard. Seeing that the bronze sword of his personal guard was instantly bent: "This..."

Soon Meng Kuo discovered something magical again. He saw that a civil servant was already rushing back with the stones he had just mined. It looked like the stones he had just mined were dragged back on the carriage...

"General, the mount of the immortal can easily penetrate the stones. The stones rolled down from the mountain. The smallest only need to move these stones to the carriage!"

Until noon, Meng Kuo was confused. He had never seen such an efficient way to build a city. Even yesterday, Yu Zhigan took him to kill seven in and seven out of the Huns army formation and was not so shocked. After all, Yu Zhigan is a god, and it is normal to destroy some Huns, but Meng Kuo saw it with his own eyes that from nothing to something.

Yes, in the morning, the workers mixed the cement and stones and poured them into the ground. Then in the morning, they saw a cement pier appear, which was a solid cement pier, but in Meng Kuo's eyes, a small Great Wall was built in one morning...

At 11:30 noon, the workers brought by Yu Zhigan came to rest time. Zhang San, the leader, walked to Yu Zhigan: "Boss, it's time to start a meal!"

"Didn't General Mengkuo prepare food for you?"

Zhang San looked at the cook who was cooking in the distance with contempt: "Boss, those foods are worse than pig food. We have to eat boxed lunches! The contract is very clear and it is for you to work for you. It costs 5,000 yuan a month and also includes three meals of food, board and meals. Wouldn't you refuse to admit it?"

“…”

I bought three hundred lunch boxes, but I deducted six hundred lunch boxes...

"Why did the system deduct me more money?"

"The other three thousand dollars are the meals of the other three hundred workers. The system has arranged their food!"

Yu Zhigan's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Or you just deduct the cement they used for construction!"

“Hahaha…”

After the system replied to Yu Zhi and said something, he stopped talking.

"If you are stingy, you will deduct money the fastest!"

Yu Zhi scolded and exchanged another one. He originally planned to add a chicken leg, but when he saw that there were no chicken leg in the other lunch boxes, he would make the chicken leg alone, and people's hearts might dissipate. So in the end he ended the pain and refused to eat the chicken leg. He secretly added a chicken leg to himself at night.

Three hundred workers took the lunch box away in turn. Yu Zhigan also brought his lunch box and found a shade to prepare for dinner. I have to say that the sky in the Qin Dynasty was really not hot. Although it was June and the sun was very strong, it was not as hot as in later generations. When the breeze blew, you could still feel a hint of coolness.

"The Supreme Immortal!"

Meng Kuo came to Yu Zhigan at some point, and he was holding a food box in his hand: "Supreme immortal, try horse meat. This is the meat of the Hun war horse that I just killed this morning. I chose the two best pieces for you to take!"

Having said that, blindfolded eyes stared at Yu Zhigan’s lunch box from time to time, and his Adam’s apple was squirming up and down, obviously he was greedy.

Today’s boxed lunch for ten yuan is still scrambled eggs with tomatoes, green pepper shredded pork, and winter melon roasted seeds!

It looks like two meat and one vegetable. In fact, the winter melon and the seeds are roasted in the black, and Yu Zhigan saw about one centimeter of the black tail. He didn't see any seeds. I just ate Lilangkou, and I added a lot of green pepper and shredded pork salt, which was not very delicious.

"What's wrong? Want to eat?"

Meng Kuo blushed when he heard Yu Zhigan's words. The general of the Great Qin who was terrified of the Huns said shyly: "That, the food of the immortals is not something that we and other mortals can enjoy!"

Even though he said that, his eyes were staring at the lunch box, and he was already thinking about what these meals were. The red one mixed with the eggs should be the red fruit in General Wang Jian’s mouth. As expected, it was the same as the legendary one, with a red color.

Meng Kuo has never seen or heard of the thing that is mixed with the shredded meat. However, Meng Kuo is also knowledgeable and talented. He racked his brains to think about the records of green fruits in ancient books. It seems that it should be the legendary green fruit? It is rumored that eating it can prolong life?

As for the last winter melon, Meng Kuo still knew it and tasted it, so I skipped it directly. Perhaps this is the winter melon grown in the fairy world, which may be a little different from the winter melon in the mortal world.

After thinking so much, I summed up a sentence. Meng Kuo really wanted to taste it, but Meng Kuo felt that he was a thin-skinned person. The god asked himself, saying that he wanted to eat it, but he was a little unreserved. He was the general of Qin, and for a few bites of food... It was too embarrassing to spread it!

"That's it, forget it!"

Yu Zhigan thought of a way to make money, but before the plan was implemented, it went bankrupt. He couldn't help but sigh, as if the ancients did not eat lunch, so he should ask again in the evening.

Meng Kuo felt regret when he saw Yu Zhigan lowering his head and continuing to eat. He was so reserved just now. Can integrity and face be exchanged for a bit of food in the immortal family?

"What? Is there something wrong?"

Yu Zhigan looked at Meng Kuo's desire to speak but stopped, and couldn't help but feel curious. Every time this guy ate, he would lean over and stare at him, as if he was eating. Yu Zhigan never understood what Meng Kuo's little habit was going on.

But after all, he is a general who has experienced many battles and a historical celebrity. Yu Zhigan couldn't say it too straightforwardly, so he kept turning a blind eye and never talked about Mengkuo. However, it was really not good to be stared at by someone while eating, especially when he was a man, and he was a little uncomfortable!

"Well, the immortal, I don't know how the food in the fairy world tastes. After eating the food in the fairy world, General Wang Jian expressed his feelings, "It's hard to eat the food in the mortal world!"

When Yu Zhigan heard Meng Kuo's words, he immediately understood that Meng Kuo had fallen in love with his own food, and this guy could really bear it. He kept it from Xianyang to Linzhao and couldn't say it out.

"You want to eat?"

"That, that, this, this, just want to taste the fairy world..."

"One or two silver!"

Yu Zhigan put his lunch box on the ground and reached out and said, "It was originally a 10-liang tael, but we are so familiar with each other, so we can get a 10% discount, and one tael of silver is enough!"

One tael of Qin Dynasty was converted to about twenty-six grams in later generations. If the silver in later generations is not valuable, one tael of silver is worth at least ten yuan, right? They are all their own people. Yu Zhi is not going to make too much money. One tael of silver is not very expensive!

"real?"

"Of course, if I hadn't summoned the fairy world's food, I would have wasted my immortal's power, and I wouldn't be willing to accept you money. After all, you and I have also been on the battlefield together. They are comrades-in-arms and have revolutionary friendships, but you know, I need to make up for my magic power, so..."

When Meng Kuo heard Yu Zhigan's words, he was very moved: "The immortal does not need to be discounted. There are still ten taels of silver!" After saying that, he reached into his arms and took out a ingot of silver and handed it to Yu Zhigan: "The immortal please!"

"That immortal is disrespectful!"

Yu Zhigan happily collected the ten taels of silver, then bought a box of lunch and gave Mengkuo a bottle of Coke: "This bottle of Coke will also be given to you!"

Meng Kuo looked at Coke and said embarrassedly: "That immortal, this coke tastes a bit strange. I wonder if there is a fairy wine?"

"liquor?"

“Yes, but the price is not low!”

Mengkuo's eyes immediately lit up when he heard this: "Supreme Immortal, please tell me a number!"

Yu Zhigan looked at Erguotou, which cost fifty yuan a bottle. After thinking about it, he didn't make a lot of money like Erguotou. He seemed to be a little sorry for his trip to Qinchao. And he also gave him a glass bottle!

You should know that Coke's plastic bottles were carried by Meng Kuo and hung around his waist. They would hold some wine in it. They would pick it up and drink it for a few sips. They would even enjoy it when Yu Zhigan left Xianyang, and seemed to see Wang Jian and Li Si hanging Coke bottles around his waist. This was the time when Yu Zhigan invited them to drink Coke when he was in Xianyang Palace!

"One or two gold!"

"Including it!"

Meng Kuo breathed a sigh of relief, thinking how much it cost, just one or two gold liang. When cleaning the battlefield yesterday, there were a lot of gold objects seized. Meng Kuo took out a golden wine cup from his arms and handed it to Yu Zhigan and said, "Please, Immortal!"

Yu Zhigan's eyes lit up when he saw the gin wine glass. This was a gold wine cup from the Qin Dynasty. It should be higher than a bronze ware, right? But why does a general as big as a general, hold a wine cup in his arms? Moreover, there seemed to be a lot of good things in Mengkuo's pocket, so he saw him take out all kinds of things from it.

"for you!"

He immediately bought a bottle of Erguotou and handed it to Mengkuo. Mengkuo immediately put the lunch box on the lunch box, wiped his hands and took the fairy wine handed over by Yu Zhigan.

I saw that the bottle of fairy wine was actually decorated with transparent glass, and there was a cow on it. It was lifelike and looked like it was real. There were some words printed on it. Meng Kuo, I don’t know it, but it looked like it was written in the fairy world.

"Supreme Immortal, this is a bit expensive!"

Meng Kuo was a little panicked. This transparent glass was worth a thousand gold. Not to mention the fairy wine contained, even the vessels used to contain the fairy wine were far higher than the golden wine cup he had just given to the immortal.

"Okay, this thing is not very valuable in the fairy world. You can taste it!"

Yu Zhi waved his hand. Meng Kuo was a little too honest, and Yu Zhi was a little embarrassed to cheat. If such a familiar person, what if he knows the truth in the future, Yu Zhi didn’t have any face to deal with him?

"Thank you, the immortal!"

After Meng Kuo finished speaking, he couldn't wait, but he didn't know how to open the Erguotou. Yu Zhigan gently twisted the bottle cap and opened it: "Try it, the wine is a bit high, but it's quite strong. You can drink less!"

Hearing Yu Zhigan's words, Meng Kuo nodded, then took a deep breath, placed the bottle mouth beside his mouth, and felt something was wrong, then opened the food box, took out a bronze cup from it, carefully poured out some and handed it to Yu Zhigan and said, "Please, Immortal!"

"I won't drink anymore!"

Yu Zhi didn't drink it. Meng Kuo had already smelled the fragrance of wine, and Adam's apple was scrambling up and down: "Good wine!"

Then he took a sip carefully, and then his originally black face suddenly turned black and red. For a person who has been drinking low-alcohol wine for many years, he suddenly drank Erguotou at more than 50 degrees. He was very uncomfortable. After drinking a sip of wine, he immediately opened his mouth and exhaleed with big mouthfuls!

"I said that the wine is very strong, drink it slowly!"
