Daily Life In Qin Dynasty - Chapter 209

  Chapter 209 Qin Jun’s food

   “Is Fuchu very short of money now?”

   “Lack of money should not be enough, but the Mo House has indeed spent a lot for the Academy during this period of time.”

  Xiong Da stroked his chin thinking and replied.

  Zhuyeqing understood what she said.

  The funds for the construction of the Academy naturally come from the treasury of the State of Qin. After all, although this ‘New Academy’ was built in Hanzhong, it is still for the State of Qin in the final analysis. Needless to say.

  But for the sake of publicity, and by the way, attracting foreigners to come to Hanzhong to ‘settled’ for development, Mo Jun needs to settle the money himself.

   It is also a coincidence to say it.

  In order to develop Hanzhong, Mo Jun almost lent all the money he earned in the past few years to the people of Hanzhong in the form of loans, resulting in almost no cash flow.

   If not.

  Mofu doesn’t need to be in trouble for this little money now.

   I have to admit that even for the people of the Mo House, the grand scale of the ‘New Academy’ that Mo Jun built in Hanzhong shocked them a lot.

  The scale of the academy is not a big deal.

   But they didn’t expect that Mr. Mo would actually promote ‘free compulsory education’. Sometimes even they don’t understand what their adults want to do?

   “Do you need our help?” Zhuyeqing asked.

   “Need, but not now, I still need to make some preparations.”

  Xiong Da said, and smiled slightly at Zhuyeqing: “After all… these guys alone can’t satisfy the appetite of adults!”

  Zhuyeqing was stunned, and then said: “Indeed, it seems that I didn’t think carefully. If this is the case, then I will settle the Xinzheng matter first, and then come back to help you.”

  Xiong Da nodded and said, “Okay!”

  ······

  The five of them rested overnight in Xiongda’s courtyard.

the next day.

  The six of them hit the road again.

Um.

   Come at five and leave at six, because Ge Nie also joined the team.

   A group of people took a carriage to the outside of Xinzheng City. At this time, Xinzheng was completely surrounded by the Qin army. Two hundred thousand Qin troops set up camp and surrounded several exits of Xinzheng City.

  In this case, even a top-notch master in the arena, without some special means, it is almost impossible to enter Xinzheng without permission.

  So the six did not rush to Xinzheng.

   Instead, with the help of Mo Jun’s token, he walked into the Qin army’s camp.

   Afterwards, Baifeng, Yanlingji, Wushuanggui, and Gai Nie stayed in the outer camp. Only Zhuyeqing and Heiyu went into the inner camp to meet the commander-in-chief of the Qin army.

   “Dinner is served, dinner is served!”

  Gai Nie and the others were waiting in the outer camp when they happened to meet the barracks for dinner. At first, everyone didn’t pay much attention to it, but when a strong meaty aroma gradually wafted in the air, the four of them were stunned for an instant.

Meat?

  There is meat in the army?

It’s pretty good to be able to eat enough to march and fight these days, not to mention the three of Yanlingji, Baifeng, and Wushuanggui, even Gai Nie, a famous master who came out of Ghost Valley, has never heard of any country The army has such treatment!

   It’s okay to say that this is just the food of a certain part of the army.

  But if this is the general food of the Qin army, then…

   “I’m afraid the gentlemen haven’t eaten after a long journey! If you don’t dislike it, why don’t you just settle here!”

  Just as the four of them were surprised, the curtain was suddenly lifted, and then a smiling armored soldier walked in. Looking at the badge on his waist, it seemed that he was still a commander in the army.

   “In this case, then bother.”

  The four of them didn’t want to have a meal in the army, but now that the other party invited them, they naturally couldn’t refuse.

   What’s more, they are indeed quite curious about the smell of meat floating in the air now.

   “You’re welcome. Please wait a moment, I’ll send someone to deliver food.”

  The captain nodded, then turned and left.

   Not for a while.

I saw someone walking in with four large pottery bowls. The rice in the four big pottery bowls was piled high, and at the same time, there were a large piece of fat meat, a piece of marinated fish, and a few sticks that looked a bit Shrimp greens.

   This kind of food is obviously not very good for the four people present.

   But this is the army.

  Even looking at the Seven Kingdoms, this kind of food is absolutely luxurious in the army.

   “Several people, please use it slowly.”

“Wait~~ little brother, I want to ask, is the food here like this?” Yan Lingji rested her chin in one hand, and although she didn’t make any special movements, her voice sounded like With a different kind of charm.

   What’s more, Yan Lingji is already a peerless beauty in terms of beauty alone.

  Faced with the temptation of such a beauty, the food delivery soldier lost his focus quickly, opened his mouth and said, “We…”

   Gai Nie frowned, flipped the sword around his waist with his left hand, and was about to do something.

  But before he could make a move, the curtain at the door was suddenly lifted, and the dazzling light shot into the tent, which woke up the food delivery soldier suddenly.

   Next second.

  I saw the former commander walking in with a big casserole in his hand, and said as he walked.

“The general has an order. During the war preparation period, the meals of all the people in the whole army will be treated equally. However, you are guests from afar today, so you don’t have to follow the order of the army, so I just ordered the fire room to add a meal for them. Dishes, please take your time.”

   Say it.

  I saw the commander put the casserole in his hand on the table, and then said: “This is the ‘cooking’ invented by Shengping Jun of Qin State. The masters in the army have just studied this method. Please don’t dislike it.”

  Although the commander never mentioned what Yan Lingji did just now, as if he didn’t know anything about it.

  But the fact that the other party came in such a ‘timely’ way already explained a lot of problems.

   After this matter.

   Everyone also put away the excess curiosity in their hearts.

   Most of the food in the army is heavy with oil and salt, especially the Qin army. It may be because they used to be poor, but now they are suddenly “rich”. Most of the soldiers in the Qin army cook like nouveau riche.

   One by one, I can’t wait to sprinkle a lot of salt in the rice.

  When the four of Yan Lingji ate, they felt their mouths were flustered.

  But this allowed Yan Lingji and others to see another terrifying logistical force of the Qin Army.

  In the end, Gai Nie and Bai Feng managed to finish their meal. After all, martial arts practitioners consume a lot of food. As for Yan Lingji, she only ate a few mouthfuls, and the rest went into Wushuang Ghost’s stomach.

   And not long after they finished their meal, they saw Zhuyeqing and Heiyu returning from the inner camp.

   “It’s settled, we should go.”

“Now?”

   “Yes, it just so happened that it was getting dark, so we sneaked in under the cover of night. How are your preparations going?”

  Zhuyeqing looked at Baifeng, Yanlingji, and Wushuanggui and said.

  Under the current situation, there are two major barriers to entering Xinzheng from the outside world, one is the encirclement of the Qin army, and the other is the defensive layer of the Han army.

  Passing the first level requires the help of Mo Jun.

  The second level depends on [Quick Sand]’s support in Xinzheng.

   “It’s ready. Baifeng will be in charge of notifying you. We can enter Xinzheng from the south gate at midnight tonight.”
