"Practice constantly." Zhang Shixun changed into a clean military uniform. His body was dirty from the fight just now.
"Ah! So, according to you, the military training has no end?"
"Yes, if soldiers don't train, are they still soldiers?"
"If you keep practicing like this, you'll drive everyone away sooner or later."
"Yanei, if you want to leave, leave quickly. If the New Year is over, you won't be able to leave. Once you join the First Army, you will be a member of the First Army in life and a ghost of the First Army in death." Zhang Shixun reminded him seemingly with good intentions.
"No! I don't want to do it anymore." Gao Yanei was frightened by his words.
"Okay! Go ahead, no one's stopping you."
Gao Yanei was stunned. He thought Zhang Shixun would stop him if he asked to leave, but he didn't expect that Zhang Shixun agreed without even thinking about it.
"Brother, are you really going to let me go?" Gao Yanei asked again.
"You're so long-winded. I've already made my point very clear. Why are you still asking?"
Gao Yanei stood in the house, hesitating. He really wanted to leave here and go back to live his carefree life, walking his bird, visiting brothels every day, and soaking in the bathhouse in his spare time. It was simply a life like a god.
However, he knew in his heart that leaving the First Army was not an easy task, and he probably wouldn't be able to get past his father.
Dad has repeatedly told me that I must keep a close eye on Shixun and keep an eye on his actions at all times.
He is my father's eyes and ears, and my father has the current government behind him.
He was monitoring Zhang Shixun on behalf of the government.
"Young Master, whether you want to leave or stay, you'd better make up your mind and stop fussing." Zhang Shixun saw his wandering eyes and knew what he was thinking. He sneered, "If you really want to leave, General Gao won't force you to stay."
Gao Yanei said sheepishly, "My father asked me to stay here because he was thinking about me. He said that I have become stronger after training with the soldiers during this period of time, which means it will be of great benefit to me."
"Young Master, we've known each other for so long, so don't say those empty words to me. General Gao's intention in placing you here is known to heaven and earth, and to you and me. If we insist on bringing this up, it will only bring shame to both of us."
Gao Yanei blushed and said shyly, "It's nothing to be ashamed of. Whenever the imperial court sends troops, they always send a military supervisor. Just treat me as the military supervisor."
"You are the military supervisor, so what is He Ji?" Zhang Shixun asked with a smile.
"He is...Brother, I don't know anything about He Ji, so don't ask me."
"Just think of me as the military supervisor." He Ji lifted the door curtain and walked in.
Gao Yanei jumped up and said, "You eavesdropped on our conversation!"
"Gao Chengzong, I don't like to eavesdrop on other people's conversations. I just walked to the door when I heard what Brother Zhang said."
"real?"
"Of course it's true." He Ji walked up to Zhang Shixun and said with a wry smile, "To be honest, I was sent by Prince Yun. Brother, don't bother guessing."
"Haha!" Zhang Shixun looked at the two of them and said with a smile, "No matter who sent you, I will treat you as my own brothers... Let's not talk about this anymore, let's talk about the glass."
Speaking of glass, Gao Yanei suddenly became excited: "Two days ago, my accountant brought back a truckload of glassware from Wang Dong and put it in my jewelry store. Hehe! Guess what the result was?"
"I can't guess." Zhang Shixun was too lazy to guess.
He Ji said, "Our He family is also a partner. We also brought in a lot of glassware, but it was all sold out within a day. I heard that Prince Yun's side sold out even faster."
Zhang Shixun asked, "You must be making a lot of money, right?"
"Needless to say?" Gao Yanei's eyes lit up as he said, "My accountant said that the three families combined have earned an estimated several hundred thousand strings of cash."
"So many?" Zhang Shixun was a little surprised.
He Ji smiled and said, "The final accounts haven't come out yet. Several accountants are doing the calculations in Gao Laozhuang. I guess we'll know how much we've earned in the next couple of days."
"Congratulations on your prosperity!" Zhang Shixun bowed to them.
"Congratulations! Congratulations!"
Zhang Shixun was also happy because Wang Dong had liquid money in his hands, and the following things could be carried out step by step. Steel and gunpowder were what Zhang Shixun cared about most, but he would not let his family get involved in these things.
"Hey guys, I have a few bottles of good wine here. Why don't we go out and celebrate together?"
"Good wine? How good?" He Ji liked drinking, and he became excited when he heard that there was good wine.
Zhang Shixun bent down, took out a bottle from under the bed and shook it at them.
"Oh my God, you actually use a glass bottle to store wine!" Gao Yanei stretched out his hand to support the bottom of the bottle, fearing that Zhang Shixun would accidentally drop it.
"It's a transparent glass bottle." He Ji leaned closer to the bottle and looked at it carefully: "Wow! It's much purer than the glassware I got."
"This must be worth a lot of money." Gao Yanei gently stroked the cold wine bottle and said, "It's smoother than a beauty's skin."
Zhang Shixun saw the two men's amused expressions and said sarcastically, "You are all country bumpkins who have never seen the world. A broken bottle makes you behave like this. Let me tell you, it's not this bottle that's valuable, but the wine inside... You two fools!"
"It's the wine that's valuable!?" Gao Yanei blinked, looked up at Zhang Shixun, and said puzzledly, "No matter how good the wine is, can it be as valuable as this pair of glass bottles?"
He Ji echoed, “Yes, all the fine wines in the Song Dynasty are not worth a pair of glass bottles, not even the best wine in the palace.”
"Okay! Stop talking nonsense, just go and try it and you'll know... Call Li Fu and other commanders, and let's go out of the camp to drink." Zhang Shixun stuffed the bottle of wine into Gao Yanei's arms, bent down and took out three more bottles.
"Oh! My brother, you don't treat the treasure as a treasure at all." Gao Yanei hurriedly hugged the wine bottle tightly.
When Li Fu and others heard that the military leader invited them to drink, they ran over.
"General, is the sun rising from the west?" Hei Bie asked with a big grin. He was also a wine lover, and he loved wine more than his father.
Gao Yanei hugged the bottle tightly in his arms and said, "You thieves are lucky. The military commander got some good wine today and didn't want to enjoy it all by himself, so he called you here."
He Ji took the two bottles of wine from Zhang Shixun, counted the number of people drinking, and frowned, "General, there are four bottles of wine in total, but there are seven of us. I'm afraid it's not enough to drink, right?"
"Yes, since the military commander invited us to drink, we have to let us drink, right?" Lu Wan said.
"Although I don't know how much you can drink, I can guarantee that if you finish these four bottles of wine today, I guarantee that a few of you will get drunk." Zhang Shixun said casually.
"I still feel that this wine is not enough to drink." said Zhang Bajin.
"A bunch of losers." Zhang Shixun glared at them and thought: You'll know if it's enough to drink after you take a sip.
