Chapter 102: I won’t accept any gifts this year, except for the gods and wine.
The imperial palace.
Yangxin Palace.
"Is this the fine wine that Jiang Yueyao mentioned?"
Chu Yingrui took a sip of wine.
"hiss……"
So spicy!
That’s quite exciting!
Moreover, the wine is as clear as spring water, without any impurities at all!
It's completely different from the wine I'm drinking now.
Not bad, it is worthy of being something made by a fairy.
Chu Yingrui couldn't help but lower his head and take another sip.
"This little girl really has some ideas."
Chu Wuxun handed over another small bottle.
"The stuff in here is called alcohol. Jiang Yueyao said that applying this stuff on the wound will cause severe pain, but at the same time... it can also effectively prevent the wound from festering, which is very beneficial for external injuries."
"Using this to wipe the surface of objects can also... sterilize them. It is said to be very good for health."
"But this thing cannot come into contact with open flames, otherwise it will easily catch fire, so you still have to be more careful when using it."
Chu Wuxiang heard the word sterilization from Jiang Yueyao. It was probably the same as military doctors using boiling water to boil the linen cloth used to wrap wounds.
"Is that so? It's a good thing... But whether it's useful or not, and how to use it, we still need the doctors to come up with a rule."
Chu Yingrui immediately put down the highly concentrated wine and picked up the bottle of alcohol instead.
As soon as I opened it, a strong smell of alcohol came out.
Chu Yingrui swallowed subconsciously.
I kind of want to try it.
However, his nephew is still in front of him, so Chu Yingrui still has to maintain the dignity of a king.
Chu Yingrui nodded.
"I had prepared some extra alcohol when I entered the palace. I will send it to the imperial doctors soon so that they can study and figure out how to use it as soon as possible."
Although both of them believed in Jiang Yueyao's inner voice and knew that although Jiang Yueyao was a little confused and money-obsessed, the things she mentioned in her heart were still reliable.
"This is a good thing to do! With this alcohol, the casualties of our Great Chu soldiers can be greatly reduced... and the people will not be so afraid of getting sick. Good, good!!!"
Chu Yingrui laughed out loud.
Little fairy, you are so reliable.
"By the way, have the wine and alcohol already been made?"
Chu Wuxun nodded.
"Not bad... Miss Jiang said that she wanted to make a fortune during the New Year holidays. After all, she also has a stake in this business."
Chu Yingrui couldn't help laughing when he thought of that greedy little girl.
He just couldn't understand how a little fairy could be so greedy.
This fairyland is not quite what he imagined.
However...
"When it comes to doing business, this little girl has a lot of tricks up her sleeve!"
"But...it's settled!"
"I also own a part of this brewery!"
"Hahaha, I never thought that one day I would be able to make money with a little girl."
You know what, it feels quite exciting!
Chu Wuxiang reported the matter of the brewery to His Majesty as soon as possible. After all, the importance of alcohol is self-evident.
then……
Chu Yingrui became interested and simply became one of the shareholders of this brewing workshop.
Of course, the shares are held by Chu Wuxian.
Even Jiang Yueyao didn't know that she and His Majesty were partners.
Not to mention, Chu Yingrui, who was doing business for the first time, was quite concerned about this matter.
"Well, what Jiang Yueyao said is right. It's Chinese New Year, so how can you not bring two bottles of good wine when you visit someone?"
"Well, your wine..."
Chu Wuxun smiled slightly.
"God is drunk."
This name was chosen by Jiang Yueyao, which means "God is Drunk in Zuixian Tower". Perfect!
"Shenxianzui, this name is good!"
"Get me a batch and send it to the palace. All the ministers in the court have worked hard for a year, so we should reward them properly! It's also a good opportunity to let them taste how excellent the wine brewed in my workshop is!"
Oh ho ho ho!
It’s me as expected!
Even brewing can be done so well!
Destiny is in my hands!
Seeing that Chu Yingrui was about to give a huge reward, looking like the nouveau riche that Jiang Yueyao described, he couldn't help but stop him immediately.
"Your Majesty... Jiang Yueyao once gave me an idea, which I think is very good."
Chu Yingrui: "What idea?"
Chu Wuxun looked a little strange.
"That... Jiang Yueyao said that I, Marquis Zhongyong, Marquis Feng'an and I should offer fine wine to Your Majesty, and then... Your Majesty should only accept the Immortal Drunk that I offer, and tell the outside world."
Chu Wuxun was really at a loss for words when he got to this point.
Chu Yingrui kept urging him.
"What? Come on."
Chu Wuxun: "I won't accept any gifts this year. If I do, I'll only accept Shenxianzui."
Chu Yingrui: ...
Chu Wuxun: ...
The Yangxin Palace fell into an awkward silence.
After a while, it was Chu Yingrui who finally broke the silence.
"Is that really the case?"
Chu Wuxun nodded resignedly.
"Ms. Jiang said... wine is brewed to make money."
"Even His Majesty praises this wine. The rich and powerful in the capital will definitely rush to buy it. You are..."
According to Jiang Yueyao, Chu Yingrui is the biggest billboard.
But Chu Wuxun certainly wouldn't say this in front of Chu Yingrui.
so……
"You are the most trustworthy person in the entire Da Chu."
That's right.
It turns out that my influence is so great.
Chu Yingrui nodded reservedly.
"Then... let's do this."
Alas, I always get into trouble because I attract too much attention.
Enough of the chores...
Chu Yingrui's face froze.
"Speaking of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion, how is the situation there?"
Chu Yingrui also became serious.
"Loyal and Brave Marquis has already prepared himself to be framed, and is only waiting for the person who framed him to reveal his identity."
"However... these days, the people in the Loyal and Brave Marquis' Mansion have been paying special attention to Prince Yong, Prince Qian, and Prince Qing, so I asked the brothers of the Black Armor Guard to retreat a little."
"oh?"
Chu Yingrui smiled.
"As expected of the Grand Princess, you are really sharp-minded."
"It would be much more effective if the Grand Princess arrested the person than if we did it ourselves. Wuxun, you are not a rude person. Let the Grand Princess handle this matter. She is the real victim. I will just have to listen to her complaints."
Chu Wuxun bowed.
"Your Majesty is wise. I was originally just worried about making a fuss, but I didn't expect there was such a thing."
Chu Yingrui laughed, "You didn't expect that... you are deliberately trying to make me happy."
However, Chu Yingrui was indeed coaxed into being very happy.
"I guess this matter will be nothing more than a muddled lawsuit in the end. If we really want to use it to punish the mastermind behind the scenes, it's probably impossible. It's good that the Loyal and Brave Marquis' Mansion wasn't really schemed against... But we can use this to do something else. Wuxeng, come here..."
Chu Yingrui waved to Chu Wuxun and spread out a picture of the Great Chu Kanyu.
The uncle and nephew huddled together and discussed in a low voice.
Aside.
Eunuch Fu took a few light steps back so as not to disturb His Majesty and Prince Jing from discussing state affairs.
only……
Tilting his head slightly, a strange thought flashed through Eunuch Fu's mind for some reason.
His Royal Highness Prince Jing and Your Majesty look so alike when they were young.
Speaking of which, His Majesty has so many children, including several princes, but... His Majesty does not care about those princes as much as he cares about His Royal Highness Prince Jing.
I think it is because His Royal Highness Prince Jing is the only child of His Majesty’s deceased younger brother, and also because His Royal Highness Prince Jing is only Prince Jing and not a prince.
