Fengxiangguan City, this place was originally Fengyi, but later changed to Fengxiang. It has jurisdiction over ten pavilions including Sishui Pavilion. It is a large township and is managed by the village stalwart.

Guan City is quite lively, with people coming and going.

Looking from a distance, the city flag hangs high. Qin Guoguan City is not like the casual stalls on the left and right sides like later movies and TV dramas, but is similar to a large shopping mall with walls around it, which is a closed place.

Cao Xiu is not here to hang out, but to collect money!

Qin Shihuang walked in front and looked around. There were people selling farm equipment in Guan City, such as grass and sickles. There were also merchants selling pottery and lacquerware, and of course there were also people selling bamboo baskets for butchering dogs.

"Drink!"

The dog butcher brandished a bright broadsword, and blood spurted out when he raised the knife. He then used a skinning knife to easily remove the dog's fart completely, and then disembowelled it and cleaned it up very cleanly. His movements were smooth and fluid, and he had the style of a chef trying to untie his cow.

There were many people gathered in front of Goutu, including men, women and children. Most of them were dressed in luxurious clothes. It was obvious that they were the right family in the city and there was no shortage of food and drink. After seeing Xiao He and Cao Xiu, they immediately showed a simple and honest smile.<

/p>

"I have seen the chief official, the chief of the pavilion!"

"I will take a rest today, so there is no need to be polite."

Xiao He smiled and waved his hand. He was a peaceful man and always liked to make friends. Even though Fan Kuai was just a dog butcher, he had a pretty good relationship with Fan Kuai.

At this time, Wang Jian also came up and looked at Fan Kuai. As a dog butcher, Fan Kuai was extremely strong, at least eight feet tall. He had a thick beard and wore a Gebu short coat with his sleeves rolled up to his arms.

, revealing the muscles like a horned dragon.

"He is truly a strong man!"

Wang Jian couldn't help but praise.

With this physique, there is no problem in going into battle to kill the enemy!

What a pity to be a butcher in this city!

"Huh? These two children were newly picked up by the director of the pavilion?"

"Hmm."

"Well...he looks quite handsome."

Fan Kuai nodded thoughtfully.

Despite his rough appearance, he is actually rough with finesse. Historically, he was able to break into the Hongmen Banquet and rescue Liu Bang, so he certainly had his abilities.

"Wrap your dog's lungs and intestines for me."

"Okay!"

Fan Kuai immediately wrapped the dog's lungs and intestines in lotus leaves, and also gave a plump dog leg as a gift, and handed it directly to Cao Xiu.

"If I have anything else to do, I'll leave first."

"It's done!"

Seeing Cao Xiu about to leave, Qin Shihuang stopped him directly.

"What are you going to do again?"

"How can you not give me money?"

"Give money?" Cao Xiu and Xiao He looked at each other, and then said as if they had heard the funniest joke, "Hahaha, ask Fan Kuai, does he want the money if I give him?"

"How dare you be so presumptuous? As a Qin official, you should have held a three-foot wooden slip to benefit the people under your rule. You never thought that you were relying on your power to bully the head of Guizhou. There is a saying in Qin law that if a Qin official has a lot of money, he will be tattooed. Chengdan!"

Qin Shi Huang's face turned livid, and he pointed at Cao Xiu and scolded him angrily.

Look at this dog butcher, he is obviously being bullied!

Let’s look at Cao Xiu and Xiao He again.

Obviously, this is a typical case of officials protecting each other!

He originally thought that Cao Xiu was a strange man, and he also thought that he was a good person because of the excellent servants in his house. He never thought that all these were just appearances. Then he thought about the big house, tsk tsk tsk... This guy must be greedy. How much?

"You kid, don't talk nonsense." Fan Kuai frowned, "The pavilion chief helped me a lot in the past. My mother died of illness when I went to serve. It was all thanks to the pavilion chief's help that my mother was buried in peace. Don't say farewell. If someone goes into the water, I would be willing to give my life to him!"

"Why are you talking so much? Let's go."

Cao Xiu raised her hand and patted Azheng on the head.

Unexpectedly, this guy has quite a sense of justice.

He and Fan Kuai have a close friendship, and they treat each other like brothers in private. Because he knows Fan Kuai's ability, ordinary ruffians can't get close to him. Previously, Cao Xiu encountered bandits, and Fan Kuai surrendered three people with his bare hands. For this reason He also got the title of Duke.

Naturally, these things are nothing.

……

Qin Shihuang remained silent and frowned.

So, he just misunderstood Cao Xiu?

However, he still felt a little weird.

Not long after, Cao Xiu stopped. In front of him was a flag made of cloth, fluttering in the wind on the flagpole, with the word "wine" written on it in black ink. This was the only wine shop in Shiliba Village.

The Qin State's ban on alcohol is comparable to the future prohibition on drugs. The reason is very simple. Wine making consumes a lot of food, and Qin State needs food for war. In addition, some people drink too much and cause trouble, so the price of wine has been increased tenfold since Lord Shang. It is impossible for ordinary people to afford drinking.

Some Guizhou people are addicted to alcohol, so they secretly use millet to make wine. It’s okay if they are not discovered, but if they are reported, they will be punished!

These two days, such as the New Year's Day and the December Festival, will be relaxed. As long as you don't get drunk, you will not be punished even if you gather together to drink. Of course, the premise is that you can afford to drink.

"Official officials, the chief of the pavilion is here?"

"Come, come, please come inside!"

Two old women in Jingchai and cloth skirts came out. After seeing Xiao He and Cao Xiu, they immediately went out to greet them.

Smelling the tangy aroma of wine, Wang Jian couldn't help but swallow his saliva. He was a heavy drinker, and he often drank when he was in the military camp. He hadn't touched alcohol for more than half a month, how could he not be greedy?

"Come here, serve me some wine!"

"You're a big drinker!" Cao Xiu knocked the kid on the head without saying anything, "Have you ever heard that minors can't drink?"

"Never heard of it..."

"You've heard it now."

Wang Jian covered his head and was dumbfounded.

He’s also addicted to cheating!

This damn boy is so unlucky!

Cao Xiu smiled and looked at Azheng, "Believe it or not, not only do I not have to pay for drinking here, they both have to pay me."

"I don't believe it." Qin Shi Huang suddenly thought of something and immediately stood up and slapped the table. "These two old women sell wine to make a living. Do you still want to bully them?"

Cao Xiu smiled lightly and said, "Don't be anxious. Wang, go and get some wine for me and the officials."

"Wei!"

These two old women are Wang Lao and Wu Fu respectively. They were able to open a wine shop in this busy city because of Cao Xiu's advice. In fact, the wine they sold was secretly brewed by Cao Xiu.

What can you do in Qin to make money quickly?

It's very simple, just read Qin Law.

Cao Xiu couldn't do the technical work of climbing over roofs and walls to steal people's property, and he didn't look down on things like robbing homes. So, Cao Xiu secretly made wine and sold it.

Soon, Wang Lao tremblingly brought two glasses of wine.

Smelling the tangy aroma of wine, Wang Jian couldn't help but swallow his saliva. The millet wine was made quite well, the wine was clear and brown, exuding an extremely rich aroma.

This is better than the wine he drank in Xianyang!

Cao Xiu just glanced at it and frowned.

"Stop, don't move, raise your wine!"

"No, raise your hands!"

Wang Lao and the warrior woman were immediately shocked and quickly kowtowed and admitted their mistake.

"The Lord of the Pavilion calms down his anger, the Lord of the Pavilion calms down his anger!"

"You are so brave!" Cao Xiu stood up, "Did you add a lot of water to this wine?"

"How do you know?"

Qin Shihuang frowned.

This wine was obviously a fine wine, but he couldn't smell anything wrong with it. How did Cao Xiu know?
