After sending off Fu Su and Feng Quji.
Only then did Xiao Chuan find Yu Shu and prepare to take her out for a walk.
Ever since he came to Xianyang, Xiao Chuan had been so busy that he had neglected Yu Shu.
Yu Shu was extremely touched when she found out the reason why Xiao Chuan was looking for her.
She let Xiao Chuan pull her out.
The two of them strolled on the streets of Xianyang.
The streets were bustling with activity, with all kinds of hawking and shouting mixed together.
Unknowingly, Xiao Chuan and Yu Shu had arrived near the Imperial Palace.
This place was different from the busy streets.
Because it was close to the Imperial Palace, one could often see armored guards patrolling the streets.
The hawkers were almost nowhere to be seen.
Yu Shu looked at the sky and held Xiao Chuan's arm.""Husband, that's all for today. Let's go back!”
Xiao Chuan nodded, but he didn't bring Yu Shu in the direction of Hongfu Restaurant.
Instead, he walked towards a rather luxurious mansion nearby.
When he reached the door, Xiao Chuan took out his keys and opened the door.
After entering, what appeared in front of the two of them was a large antique courtyard.
There were many precious flowers and plants planted there, and a curved pond surrounded the flowers and plants.
The scenery was extremely beautiful.
"Husband, this…" Yu Shu was a little surprised. She didn't know why Xiao Chuan had brought her here.
Xiao Chuan smiled and explained,""This is the mansion that His Majesty has given me. From now on, we will live here!”
Yu Shu's expression changed slightly.
Live here?
It was several times better than living in the Hongfu Restaurant.
After all, Hongfu Restaurant was located in a busy city. It was the kind that did not stop from morning till night.
This place was close to the Imperial Palace and was where the families of the officials lived.
Safety was guaranteed, and it was much quieter.
Seeing that Yu Shu was tempted, Xiao Chuan grabbed her wrist tightly."Let's go and take a look at our new home.”
As he spoke, he brought Yu Shu into the courtyard and began to look around.
There were quite a lot of rooms.
Apart from the reception hall, study, and master bedroom, there were also many guest rooms.
It was a pretty big house.
After choosing the rooms for the two of them.
Xiao Chuan hired a carriage to take him and Yu Shu back to Hongfu Restaurant.
He also packed up all the daily necessities here and moved them to the new mansion.
Then, the two of them settled down in the new mansion.
……
The next day!
Someone knocked on the door outside the mansion, waking Xiao Chuan up.
He opened the door and saw that it was Meng Tian.
In the past two days, he and Ying Zheng had been discussing the expansion of Great Qin for quite some time.
The result was that Great Qin would be preparing its soldiers.
They were crafting weapons and training soldiers.
As for the provisions, he would have to wait until Xiao Chuan's potatoes and sweet potatoes were available before making a decision.
As for Meng Tian, she had two reasons for looking for Xiao Chuan today.
First, Xiao Chuan had to use Meng Yi's identity to walk around the Meng Army and get to know them.
The second was what Meng Tian had thought of before, to have Xiao Chuan brew a large amount of Maotai for military use.
After explaining the situation, Xiao Chuan agreed to Meng Tian's first request.
However, Xiao Chuan was a little speechless when it came to the second one.
"Do you know how long it takes to brew a jar of Maotai?”Xiao Chuan asked.
Meng Tian shook her head, indicating that she did not know.
Xiao Chuan stretched out three fingers." At least three months. We'll need someone to guard it every day. The production of such fine wine is extremely low, but you want to use it for military use?”
What a joke. Two thousand years later, Moutai would be known as China's top white wine. That was not a lie.
The brewing process, brewing time, and brewing materials all had very strict requirements.
Moreover, the longer this thing was hidden, the more mellow it became.
The three months that Xiao Chuan had mentioned was only the time when the Moutai liquor had finished fermenting.
Although it was drinkable, it was far from the mellow and long feeling.
It could only be considered a low-quality product among the Maotai.
After hearing Xiao Chuan's explanation, Meng Tian was a little disappointed.""Is there no other way?"
"No." Xiao Chuan shook his head.
In any case, he had no interest in spreading the Mao Tai to the entire Great Qin.
It wasn't that he didn't want to, but the conditions didn't allow it.
What were the ingredients used to brew Moutai?
It was wheat and broomcorn, which were the staple food of Great Qin's people.
If he wanted to make a large amount of Moutai wine, it meant that he would have to purchase a large amount of grain and wheat.
What did the commoners eat?
Even if Xiao Chuan agreed, there would probably be many people who would interfere!
Of course, it was not entirely impossible.
As long as Xiao Chuan's sweet potatoes and potatoes were promoted to the entire Great Qin Empire.
If the people could eat their fill, it would not be a problem for them to brew Moutai wine on a large scale for military use.
This was one of Xiao Chuan's thoughts, but he did not tell Meng Tian.
After giving up on Meng Tian's idea, Xiao Chuan stood up.""Let's go, let's take a look at Meng tribe's military camp.”
Meng Tian nodded and led Xiao Chuan straight to the Meng family's military camp.
It was located on the wasteland in the eastern suburbs of Xianyang City.
Under Meng Tian's lead, Xiao Chuan easily entered the Meng family mansion.
Meng Tian suggested that Xiao Chuan pay his respects to his ancestors before the military inspection.
This put Xiao Chuan in a difficult position.
He's not the real Meng Yi!
However, looking at Meng Tian's hopeful eyes, Xiao Chuan could not reject her.
He could only follow and put on an act.
There were dozens of memorial tablets in the Meng family ancestral hall.
Meng Tian introduced them to the members of the Meng family who had died on the battlefield.
Xiao Chuan went through the motions and then went to the Meng family's military camp with Meng Tian.
There were not many soldiers stationed here.
There were only ten to twenty thousand of them, and they were arranged on the battlefield for daily training.
When they saw Meng Tian, the black-armored Meng family's army stopped what they were doing.
She faced Meng Tian and waited for his lecture.
Meng Tian did not stand on ceremony and pointed at Xiao Chuan, who was beside her, as she introduced the Meng Army.
"Thanks to the blessings of the heavens, I found my long-lost brother. It's him, Meng Yi!”
