Chapter 1119: Carrying on the Past and Opening up the Future (IX)

A heavy rain had just washed away the entire Ji City. The sky after the rain looked particularly blue. The scorching sun hung in the blue sky, letting go of the depression that had been previously blocked by the black clouds. Above the newly washed streets Misty mist is rising, rising higher and higher, making the scenery in the distance seem to be covered with a fine veil, but instead it shows a different kind of hazy beauty.

Gao Yuan was sitting on the watchtower, with his crossed legs resting on the railing. He was trembling, his clothes were half untied, his eyes were squinting, and he was humming some unknown tunes in his mouth. His hair was disheveled and very unkempt. At this time, his If the citizens of the Han Kingdom were to see this appearance, no one would believe that this was their respected king.

On the small table next to him, there was a jar of wine, and the bowl in his hand was also filled with the same color of wine, but the wine was golden yellow. Next to the wine jar, there was a Freshly fried chicken.

Squinting his eyes, he took a big gulp of the wine into his mouth, exhaled a long and contented breath, and then burped a series of times. Gao Yuan couldn't help but sigh: "Comfortable!" He put a hand on the table next to him. Fumbling around on the table, Ning Xin, who was sitting on the side, quickly picked up the fried chicken drumstick from the plate and stuffed it into his hand.

"Is this wine so delicious?" Ning Xin looked at Gao Yuan who was very satisfied and asked suspiciously. She had poured the wine herself just now, and it didn't smell like alcohol at all.

"Of course it tastes good. Beer paired with fried chicken is a must-have!" Gao Yuan glanced sideways at her and raised his feet higher: "If you don't believe me, try it!" He then handed the wine bowl in his hand to Ning Xin. in hand.

Doubtful, Ning Xin opened her mouth, took a sip, and then spit it out with a slurp, "What kind of wine is this? It's sour and has no taste of wine at all."

Gao Yuan chuckled: "It's because you don't understand its beauty. Once you drink it a few more times, you will fall in love with it. Well, especially on hot days, use ice cubes to chill it, and then simmer it. When the wine is poured into your stomach, it feels so good!"

Ning Xin stared at Gao Yuan for a long time, then suddenly burst into laughter.

"I understand!" She stared at Gao Yuan and said with a smile.

"What do you understand?" Gao Yuan turned his head and looked at the other party's beautiful face. He had to say that among the three ladies, Ning Xin was indeed the strongest in terms of appearance and figure. Although they had been married for many years, Ning Xin's smile , still makes Gao Yuan feel uneasy.

"You and Yanzi are both famous for pouring one bowl at a time!" Ning Xin covered her mouth and chuckled, "That's why you made this wine that has no alcohol flavor at all. In the future, you can use it to hold banquets with all the officials." With this wine, even if you drink ten bowls, it will not fall down. As long as you applaud it, none of the ministers below dare to say it is not good, and they will say it is good even if they grit their teeth. Are you planning this for yourself? , Poor Mr. Wu Kaiwu, my family spent a huge amount of money to research the wine you mentioned, but they will definitely lose everything when they drink it. How can anyone buy such a wine to drink!"

"Summer insects cannot talk about ice!" Gao Yuan said angrily: "When summer comes in a few months, you will understand how good it is. By the way, there will be no problem with the ice storage cellar in the palace. By then, I want ice."

"Don't worry, I want to see how refreshing this so-called beer is in the summer you mentioned." Ning Xin still couldn't help but laugh, "Brother Gao, maybe Lord Wu Kai and Wu are here at this time The people at home are jumping around and scolding you! If this beer is like this, then I think the other wine will be quite disgusting!"

"Just wait and see, the luminous cup of grape wine will be destroyed immediately when you want to drink the pipa. Jun Mo laughs when he is lying drunk on the battlefield. How many people have fought in ancient times! Haha, when the wine is made, I guarantee you will be obsessed with it." Gao Yuan put the chicken drumstick. He stuffed it into his mouth three or two times, grabbed the bowl from Ning Xin's hand, and drank the wine in the bowl: "Although it's almost boring, it's not bad. It will definitely get better and better in the future."

"I think Mr. Wu will definitely lose money on this beer, but brother, the soap made by Jiang Dalang and Ke Zhen has now spread all over Jicheng!" Ning Xin giggled, "That's what you named them. The name is weird. It’s very hard to pronounce.”

"Why is it weird? Procter & Gamble Co., um, this soap was originally a partnership between two people. By the way, now I also have shares in it. Speaking of which, I am still the major shareholder. Everyone has different shares and different responsibilities. Gao Yuan spoke plausibly. At that time, Ke Zhen asked him to name him. He opened his mouth and a name like this came up. Later, it was too late to regret it. Who called him a king? Naturally, he couldn't say it out loud. Taken back.

"This Ke Zhen is also a talented person, much better than Jiang Dalang. He, ah, loudly promoted in Jicheng that their new product was named by the King of Han himself, and it was a designated product of the palace. In the palace, everyone from the Princess of Han to the guards Everyone uses palace maids. With this gimmick, within two days, their products have become popular all over Jicheng. Now, all the counties and cities are also following the news and are coming to them for sales! It can be said that they are making money every day! "

"Half of this amount of gold is mine!" Gao Yuan said proudly. "Choose a name and come up with an idea. Even if it's advertising for him, it's still worth it. Now I have to find a way to make money, otherwise I'll spend this day It’s been a tight life.”

Ning Xin laughed: "Not to mention the support from the country, the dividends given to you by Wu's Liquor Industry alone are as high as one hundred thousand taels of silver every year. How can your life be so tight!"

"You really don't know how expensive firewood and rice are. Jing'er wouldn't think like you do." Gao Yuan stretched out his hand and poked Ning Xin's forehead, "You have been used to enjoying things since you were a child. How do you know about this oil, salt, sauce and vinegar tea? Open the door. Five things, how much does it cost a year? One hundred thousand taels of silver, you don’t even look at how much money is spent in this palace in a day. When will Wang Wudi, a miser, pay me my salary on time? I’m not in a hurry. Luo, he would never remember that I also have to get a salary, but he wants to get some from me from time to time. For example, there was a flood in Yuyang two days ago, and he actually came to me and said, As a king, you should take the lead in donating money to set an example. I'm really pissed off. I asked this bastard old man, and he only donated a hundred taels of silver. As soon as he opened his mouth, he asked me to donate ten thousand taels. I was so angry that I wanted to beat him up. Finally I gritted my teeth and took the five thousand taels of silver, but he still looked unhappy."

"Wang Wu knows your family background!" Ning Xin covered her mouth and smiled.

"Tell me, this Jishicheng Military University, I have to give rewards from time to time, so that they will always remember me as the king. Although Jicheng Comprehensive University gives less, it still has to show its appreciation every year. I have seen through it. , In this history, I, the king, have been the most frustrated person." Gao Yuan said angrily.

"You didn't do this yourself." Ning Xin laughed: "But although you hold back your song, you are a wise king praised by the world! From the ministers to the common people, no one will praise you."

"I'm trapped in a cocoon!" Gao Yuan sighed: "So I have to find ways to make more money, and I have to make guys like Wang Wucheng speechless. Procter & Gamble is still making some superficial products. In the future, I have to make Jiang Dalang Come here with Ke Zhenti and teach them a few tricks. In the next few years, I will have to rely on them to save some private money! Otherwise, in the future, if my son marries a daughter-in-law and a daughter marries a husband, it will be shabby and I will lose all my foundation. Already."

Ning Xin was amused by Gao Yuan and laughed.

Looking at Ning Xin's smile, Gao Yuan smiled and nodded, "You should feel a lot better today, right?"

After listening to Gao Yuan's words, Ning Xin's smile stopped abruptly. She looked at him for a long time, then she came to her senses and looked at him movedly, "So you've been making me happy all this time?"

"I'm not kidding you. Aren't what we just said are true? Niu Ben wrote a letter saying that he caught Yan Lingwei's Black Death Needle. I think he must have reported the letter to you. What do you think? Do you want to personally Go and see this guy? Now he has been imprisoned in the prison at the Overwatch Council headquarters. If you want to take a personal revenge or something, I will just pretend that you don’t know, and I think people in the Overwatch Council will also pretend that you don’t know. Come on, they are not Jing Shou."

Her bright eyes were staring at Gaoyuan, with water flashing inside. After a long while, Ning Xin said leisurely: "Are you instigating a crime?"

Gao Yuan smiled and said, "Hide for your loved ones, this is hiding for your loved ones."

Ning Xin looked up at the blue sky and said after a while: "Let's forget it. Although I hate this black death needle, when it comes to him, he is just a knife. There is someone else who controls the handle. You As the King of Han, I abide by the laws of the Han Kingdom everywhere. As your wife, how can I just take the lead in violating the laws and regulations based on my own thoughts? The fate of the Black Death Needle will be determined by the laws of the Han Dynasty. I I can’t see him either.”

Gao Yuan stretched out his hand to hold Ning Xin in his arms, stroked her hair, nodded and said: "You are right, this is my good wife. The laws are made, and they must be obeyed. King Ye Hao , Ordinary people, everyone is equal before the law, there is no punishment like that of a doctor, bullshit, if our official who is a doctor or above commits a crime, I will still send him to the dock. Black Death Needle used to be in Yan Ling Wei's affairs are all old affairs of the previous dynasty, and they were all instigated by the institutions of the imperial court. Now we really can't cure him with this. However, this person killed Mao Tao, which is still a human life. In short, even if he does not die, , I'm afraid the skin will also peel off. As for how to judge, that is something that Jing Shou should worry about. Let's not worry about it. The two of us will go burn incense to your father some other day. Telling him the news can be regarded as comforting his spirit in heaven. Already."

"You really don't hate my father anymore?" Ning Xin raised her head in Gao Yuan's arms and asked.

"Times have changed, why do I still hate him? His beautiful daughter has become my wife, and my daughter is his granddaughter. There is no hatred that cannot be resolved!" Gao Yuan said with a smile.

"You're so kind!" Ning Xin whispered, burying her head deeply in Gao Yuan's arms and listening to Gao Yuan's powerful heartbeat. (To be continued)
