"Come, come, come. Honored guest, let's drink!"
Seeing Tu Ju's stunned look, Chu Han thought that he had not entertained him well enough and quickly raised his glass to invite him to drink.
Tu Ju hurriedly downed the wine in his cup in one gulp, then quickly filled another cup for himself, not giving Ying Zheng a chance to make a move at all.
"Are you the general of Marshal Tu?" Chu Han asked with a friendly smile. May I ask how I should address you?"
Tu Ju gulped and nodded.""Yes, yes, yes. I am the family general of Grand Marshal Tu Ju. My surname is Tu. Shopkeeper Chu, you can just call me Old Tu.”
"Your esteemed guest's surname is Tu? So you're a relative of Marshal Tu!"
Chu Han had a look of admiration on his face. He patted Tu Ju's shoulder and whispered seductively,""Old Tu, do you want a promotion and a raise?”
Tu Ju hurriedly shook his head." I don't want to, I don't want to. Even my current official position makes me feel terrified. I still need to make more contributions before I can feel at ease!”
After he finished speaking, Tu Ju stole a glance at Ying Zheng.
He had just been promoted to the rank of Grand Commandant by Ying Zheng. If he said that he still wanted to be promoted, wouldn't that be expressing his dissatisfaction and greed to Ying Zheng?
But what he got was Ying Zheng's expressionless reply,""You don't want to be promoted anymore?"
The two-meter-tall man, who weighed more than 200 pounds, was trembling like a bullied wife. He probed,"Then…I want to?"
Seeing Ying Zheng nod slightly, Tu Ju heaved a sigh of relief.
Accompanying the king was like accompanying a tiger!
Chu Han patted Tu Ju's shoulder hard.""That's right. A soldier who doesn't want to be a general is not a good soldier! You're lucky. If you buy more wine from my family, when the day of the southern expedition comes, Marshal Tu will definitely praise you and promote you. Why do I say this?”
"Why?" Tu Ju asked subconsciously.”
Chu Han said mysteriously,"Because this wine of mine is a panacea that can travel the Hundred Yue Lands!" If we, the people of Qin, go to Baiyue, we definitely won't be able to adapt to the local climate. If it's light, we'll get a heatstroke, and if it's serious, we'll collapse. And this pot of wine is the best medicine to treat heatstroke!”
Chu Han introduced all the medicinal wine and alcohol one by one, but the more Tu Ju listened, the more strange his expression became.
Wasn't this what His Majesty said that day?
I knew that these words didn't sound like His Majesty's daily tone. So His Majesty learned them from this Shopkeeper Chu!
Saliva flew everywhere for a long time. Chu Han asked expectantly,"So, General Tu, do you want to pay him one or two hundred stones?”
Tu Ju still remembered that Ying Zheng had asked him to hide his identity, so he hurriedly said,""I'm not General Tu, I'm just…"
Chu Han waved his hand and interrupted Tu Ju,""No, you are! With such a great contribution, when you return victorious from the southern expedition, it will be the time when you become a general!”
Tu Ju heaved a sigh of relief. I was scared to death. I thought I had been exposed.
"Cough cough ~"
Ying Zheng coughed twice, and Tu Ju finally remembered why Ying Zheng had asked him to come here this time. He hurriedly said,""Shopkeeper Chu, I feel that if I want to win the favor of Grand Marshal Tu, it will be difficult to rely on wine alone. I heard that Shopkeeper Chu is quite familiar with the Bai Yue, can you tell me a little?”
Chu Han patted his chest and said," No problem. We've said it before. We'll tell you everything we know. What do you want to know?"”
Tu Ju stole another glance at Ying Zheng, then asked,""This general is just a general and doesn't know much about strategy, so I wanted to ask Shopkeeper Chu, if I…after my Grand Commandant arrives at the Bai Yue, how can I obtain greater results?”
"This is my family's art of war, if…" Chu Han said hesitantly.
"I want a hundred stones of this wine!" Tu Ju hurriedly said.”
Chu Han was delighted and quickly changed his words." But if General wants to ask, why would I keep it to myself?"”
"Most of the wars that happened in the Land of Bai Yue were small-scale, localised, and clan-based battles. The number of battles where the total number of both sides could exceed 5,000 could be counted on one hand.”
"If Great Qin can use this weakness to lure them to gather and then crush them with our army, we will definitely be able to obtain great results!”
Tu Ju nodded repeatedly as he listened. This was news that he had never heard before. Now that he knew that the Bai Yue had never come into contact with large armies, many thoughts immediately popped into his mind.
But just as he was engrossed in listening, Chu Han frowned and said,"Sigh, it's been a long time. I can't remember a lot of the news.”
Tu Ju hurriedly said," 200 dans. Shopkeeper Chu, I'll order 200 dans of wine!"”
Chu Han slapped his head and said," I remember now. The Bai Yue are good at using poison, especially the Snake Venom Arrow. If we want to fight with the Bai Yue, it is necessary to be prepared to defend against poison."”
"And the best antidote is the snake venom wine produced by our winery! Let me tell you, our snake venom wine…"
Chu Han was just about to bluff him again when he saw Tu Ju say with a bitter face,"I say, Shopkeeper Chu, before the army sets off, I've bought all the wine produced by your winery. Can't you just say it in one breath?”
Chu Han smiled brightly." Old Tu, I told you that you're the most extravagant person. Come, let's have a good chat!"”
The honored guest was forthright, and Chu Han was not stingy either.
He poured out everything he knew. In the end, Chu Han even ran back to the restaurant and pulled over a dozen jars of wine.
"Old Tu, although this is the first time we've met, we hit it off at first sight. You're a forthright person, so I can't be any worse.”
Chu Han said sincerely," These medicinal wines are more than ten times more effective than the mass-produced ones. Your marshal is from the old Qin Dynasty and has never been to the Baiyue Land. He will definitely not adapt to the environment."”
"The people of the Yue are skilled in assassination. They might also bypass the army and use a snake poison arrow to assassinate your Grand Commandant.”
"This medicinal wine is prepared for your Grand Commandant. When your Grand Commandant falls ill, you can offer this wine to him. I guarantee that you will be satisfied with Grand Commandant Tu and get a promotion and a raise!”
Tu Ju cupped his hands and said,"Thank you, Shopkeeper Chu. I'll take my leave!"”
Looking at Tu Ju's back as he rode away, Chu Han finally couldn't help but shout,""Old Tu, remember to come and fetch wine tomorrow!”
Tu Ju's mouth twitched slightly as he replied loudly,""This Tu will never forget!"
F * ck, do I dare to forget?
His Majesty is right beside me. If I forget, I'll be lying to the Emperor!
