Martial: I Started The Technological Revolution In Ancient Times

As a person who didn't care much about the officials, it was very difficult for Xiao Yun not to know about Pei Donglai's existence.    

This guy was a fool.    

There were always people in this world who didn't fit in with the environment he was in.    

For example, foolish and honest people can't survive in the government.    

However, Pei Donglai was an exception.    

He used to beat up the current Emperor on the streets when he was young. He was the 'boor' that everyone talked about. Many people thought that he was not very smart.    

However, he sat firmly in the seat of the Eastern Town's Guardian. It had not changed for several decades.    

What was the reason?    

Almost everyone in Qin Country knew about it.    

When His Majesty was in trouble, he suffered twelve injuries and carried His Majesty on his back for more than thirty miles. When His Majesty was alive, he almost died.    

Just this matter alone was enough to make him arrogant for the rest of his life!    

And the one His Majesty truly trusted was him.    

One must always trust one person.    

Even if everyone was full of lies, they still had to choose one and then trust one.    

Xiao Yun understood this very well.    

In front of His Majesty, he did not speak much of the truth. Many things were used by His Majesty, even the matter of tobacco was the same.    

So, should His Majesty trust him?    

Xiao Yun did not know either.    

Comparatively speaking, he also felt that the kind of person who could save his life at a critical moment and sacrifice his own life was more trustworthy.    

After all...    

In the end, he had to trust someone.    

But at the same time, it would be more troublesome to face such a person.    

Because compared to Yang Shuo, Pei Donglai was really unreasonable!    

"Sell? How can I not sell? As long as the price is right."    

Xiao Yun smiled lightly and pulled a small box from the side.    

He slowly opened it.    

He took out a small jar from the box.    

He placed it on the table.    

Then, he reached out and tapped on the jar with a nostalgic look on his face.    

Then he said, "Look at this."    

Pei Donglai immediately got closer and asked curiously, "What is this?"    

Xiao Yun said, "Back in Xiao family, you should know that I was not welcomed by my family. My life was a little tight."    

The group of people snorted.    

Poverty?    

You, Xiao Yun, are a hedonistic son of the capital, and you spend money in Drunken Immortal Restaurant every day. How overbearing is that?    

Most of the money in the Xiao family was caused by him. How could this be considered poverty?    

Who are you trying to cheat?!    

However, he didn't poke a hole through it.    

Even Pei Donglai didn't say anything. He just stared at the small jar, not knowing what Xiao Yun was trying to do.    

"When Qing'er was by my side, I was thinking of the day when... One day, when she fell in love with a man from a family, she would marry him. After all, she had worked hard for the Xiao family for so many years. She should have been able to live a happy life. Of course, I have to prepare this dowry in advance. I also have to prepare it well. "    

As he said this, the corner of Xiao Yun's eyes twitched.    

In the end, he smiled lightly.    

"At that time, I didn't have much money, so I wondered what kind of dowry I would be able to take out. Then I thought of this daughter Hong, who used special food and fruits. When mixed together, she brewed a wine that can be cooked quickly. As long as it was buried underground for a year, it would be done... Because it was novel, it would also be able to hold up the scene. Now... he won't need it anymore. "    

"Why not?"    

"Qing'er is like this to the Xiao family, but I have to be selfish. I have to keep her by my side for the rest of my life, so it is naturally impossible for me to get married."    

"So... this is wine?"    

Pei Donglai was more concerned about the jar in front of him.    

Xiao Yun nodded and said, "It is wine. Legend has it that there is an extremely ancient way to brew wine. Sealed the fermented wine in the jar and buried it underground. After a dozen or twenty years, when my daughter marries, we will dig it out from the ground. He opened the jar with the fragrance of fine wine, which flickered with amber light, and used it to invite guests. This is the daughter's red. "    

" Daughter Red? Then this wine is really something good that is hard to come by!"    

Xiao Yun grinned and showed a little bitterness.    

"My daughter is red. Because she is more precious, she needs to use some wine that has been carved with flowers and birds to carry it, so it is also called Flower Alcohol."    

"Flower Condor? It also shows elegance!"    

Pei Donglai chuckled. It was obvious that he was salivating.    

Yang Shuo, who was standing next to him, twitched his mouth.    

What elegance? You're a big guy, you know how to be elegant!    

Xiao Yun continued, "But there is another saying, 'Flowers and condors wilt and wilt, and the finger flowers wilt by themselves.' But there is another saying: 'Flowers and condors wilt and wilt, and the finger flowers wilt by themselves.' Some daughters died prematurely, or were unable to get married, or their faces aged. Taking out this wine can be considered a memento. "    

This sentence was clearly very ordinary, but it carried some melancholy that made one's heart palpitate.    

Pei Donglai was stunned for a moment.    

Then, he widened his eyes and stared at the small jar.    

However, his pupils seemed to be unfocused.    

He was clearly looking at the wine, but it did not seem like he was looking at the wine.    

Xiao Yun pulled over the small wine jar and took out a copper pot. He placed the copper pot on the fire and burned it dry. He added water and then burned it dry. After that, he opened the wine jar layer by layer.    

First, he slapped off the mud seal.    

Then, he pulled open the tarp and took out the oil-paper.    

As expected, the smell of alcohol would immediately spread out.    

There was no strong fragrance, but there was a fruity fragrance.    

Yes, this was not the traditional yellow wine, nor was it made of glutinous rice.    

It was more like fruit wine. After all, it was easier to brew fruit wine.    

Xiao Yun did not have any technical support at the time, so it was not easy to make such a thing.    

Furthermore, there was no way to get rid of the sweetness.    

Therefore, that sweet and sweet taste could really float very far away. It also contained the sourness of the fruit, making it appear even more plump.    

He poured a jar of wine into a copper basin, then added various kinds of fruits, sugar, and other things that looked like medicine inside.    

After it was boiled, he immediately picked it up.    

In order to prevent the Alcohol Qi from dissipating.    

He scooped up a spoonful of the foam and poured it into the bowl.    

The jujube red wine emitted layers of hot air, like fresh blood on the battlefield.    

It made these guys who had been in the army for their entire lives could not help but feel their blood boiling!    

The first cup was pushed in front of Pei Donglai.    

"It's very hot, drink carefully."    

Pei Donglai took a sip.    

He was obviously stunned.    

Then he took another sip.    

Then, he stood there blankly with his wine glass in hand.    

He didn't care how hot the glass was.    

He didn't know why, but tears suddenly flowed down his face.    

He only used the back of his hand to wipe it away, but he didn't hide it.    

Xiao Yun did not ask.    

He waited until he put down the wine glass and filled it up again.    

Then, he poured the wine for the people around him.    

One for each person.    

Everyone drank.    

In the beginning, they were all shocked.    

Then, there was silence.    

Occasionally, they would take a sip and quietly think about their own matters.    

Actually, everyone knew why Pei Donglai would cry.    

They didn't feel ashamed of him, they only felt pity for him.    

If it was Pei Donglai's entire life, it could really be described as pitiful.    

That year when he saved His Majesty, he was injured, causing him to lose the ability to reproduce.    

Before this, he only had one daughter.    

She was the apple of his eye.    

Be careful and protect her.    

However, this was his only hope and the only motivation for him to survive. A few years ago, in an accident, he had completely left his world.    

In his life, he had no more worries.    

The only thing he could do was to leave all his time for his family.    

However, he could only use alcohol to numb himself.    

Xiao Yun, on the other hand, did not know about this.    

He only knew that this fellow definitely loved drinking. Whether it was his black and yellow teeth or the thick pores on his face, it all proved that this fellow was an alcoholic.    

In the face of such a person, rather than talking, it was better to give him what he liked the most.    

Therefore, Xiao Yun took out this jar of wine.    

It could also be considered as having no heart to plant a willow tree in the shade.    

Coincidentally, it hit the softest spot in Pei Donglai's heart.    

He was done crying.    

He also drank three glasses of wine.    

When it cooled down a bit, he drank all the wine in his glass in one go.    

Then, he handed the glass over in a slightly awkward manner.    

Xiao Yun filled it up.    

Pei Donglai drank again.    

This time, he was reluctant to drink it all in one gulp.    

He only savored it carefully.    

From time to time, he would even make clicking sounds.    

After a long time, he asked: "If I want to buy this wine, what do I need to pay?"    

He did not ask for the price.    

Because he knew that there were some things that couldn't be measured with gold and silver.
