Chapter 2973 A bottle of wine back then

    百度杀wine…』


    Ye Chuan was a little stunned.


    The visitor nodded and said, "That''s right, Baimo Zhijiu." Baimo is the end of Baicaohua. Purpose, beauty. The wine is mixed with the powder of hundreds of flowers and herbs, so it is fragrant and beautiful. I had a drink of it in Luoyang in the past, but I never imagined that I would be gone for many years. 』


    As the visitor spoke, he stared at Ye Chuan. One hand was placed on the counter, but the other hand was hidden under the countertop.


    ?Ye Chuan seemed to be in a daze, as if he had heard something, but also as if he had not heard it. He habitually picked up the rag and wiped it on the counter. Then he turned his back to the counter, as if he wanted to wipe the wine grid behind the counter again.


    When the visitor saw this, he repeated it again, but his tone of voice was louder and obviously a little harsher.


    Ye Chuan did not expect that he would hear this sentence again.


    ??This is a special joint code word.


    ? Bai Mo Zhi Liquor is a mellow and fragrant wine that was harvested from hundreds of flowers in the Han Dynasty and brewed with precision. "At the end of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty, there was a minister who drank wine and fought for thousands of coins." This refers to this kind of wine.


    ?Now this statement not only names the first emperor of the Han Dynasty, but also names Luoyang, so it can basically be confirmed...


    Whether it’s Guanzhong or Longxi, most people don’t choose to drink “Baimozhi Liquor”. On the one hand, it’s too expensive, and on the other hand, it doesn’t conform to local customs.


    The visitor did not know Ye Chuan, so he could only confirm his identity through such code words.


    Equivalent to a joint.


    When the visitor saw Ye Chuan didn''t answer, he was about to raise his voice and ask a third time. If Ye Chuan didn''t say anything again, he was ready to leave immediately.


    But when the visitor raised his voice to call the shopkeeper Ye Chuan, a few soldiers on one side who were about to return to the team had already eaten and drank enough. They patted the table and called the shopkeeper to pay.


    ?Ye Chuan was stunned for a moment, then responded immediately and stepped forward to pay the bill.


    The visitor looked slightly nervous and stared at Ye Chuan, his eyes fixed on him, and his body was slightly forward and slightly tilted, as if he was ready to run away at any time, or was about to explode at the next moment.


    ?Ye Chuan didn''t do anything extra. He just collected the money, bowed and saluted, sent the soldiers out, then came back, cleaned up the leftovers on the table, and returned to behind the counter.


    The visitor stared suspiciously, and was about to open his mouth to speak for the last time, when he heard Ye Chuan say hoarsely: "No need to say it." 』


    The visitor was stunned, because the formal connection process requires Ye Chuanzhuan to tell which side of the incision he made, and then answer it himself, so that both parties can confirm their identities.


    Now this is…


    Just when the visitor felt a little strange, he saw Ye Chuan take out a small earthen jar from under the wine cabinet.


    "Huh..." Ye Chuan looked at the small earthen pot, remained silent for a while, then put the earthen pot on the counter, "Take it...this is what you want..."


    The visitor stared at the earthen pot and looked up at Ye Chuan suspiciously.


    ? Could this guy really have taken a small earthen jar of Bai Mo Zhi wine?


    Deployment of defense at Huguan. "Ye Chuan patted the pot and said, "Everything I know has been written down... There are some places I can''t go to, so there are no paintings..."


    The visitor slowly took the jar.


    The earthen jar is relatively light and obviously does not contain wine.


    The visitor opened the stopper of the earthen jar, and then quickly scanned the contents of the earthen jar with the light. When he saw that it looked like paper, he put the stopper back on, hugged the earthen jar, and lifted it slightly. He nodded and whispered, "I am now in charge of Huguan... You and the men you recruited, starting from today..."


    There are no subordinates. Ye Chuan interrupted the visitor, "I don''t want to do it for you either." Take these things away and stop coming..."


    The visitor''s eyes turned cold, "What do you mean?" Do you want to betray the emperor and the great man? 』


    emperor? Big guy? Ye Chuan smiled bitterly and said, "What did the emperor give me?" What did the big man give me again? Everything you see now was neither given to me by the emperor nor from the great man...I am just an ordinary citizen now, and I don’t want to get involved with you..."


    The visitor sneered, "This matter... is not up to you!" Think about the fathers and wives in your hometown! I know you may be a little confused now, but it doesn’t matter, just think about it carefully..."


    After speaking, the visitor turned around and left, leaving Ye Chuan sitting behind the counter in a daze...


    …(⊙⊙)…


    The chaotic killing outside Huguan is of course not just for killing.


    It was to cover Yuan Yuan and others entering Huguan.


    ??Yuan Yuan wants to sneak into Huguan, the first condition is to find someone who is slightly similar in appearance to him, and the second is to get this person''s household registration certificate.


    It is not difficult to find similar ones, because Yuan Yuan is not one of those people who rides in sedans and cars all day long. He originally came from a poor family. He has a **** and a knife and a gun. His hands are thick with calluses and his skin is dark. He is no different from other farmers. different.


    The difficult thing is household registration.


    ??Without this household registration certificate, it is very difficult to settle down in Huguan.


    ??If you arrive at Huguan as a foreigner, let alone free contact with informants, even a slightly out-of-the-ordinary behavior will immediately attract investigation from the villagers, and your identity may be exposed...


    Now that we have a formal identity, it is much simpler and there is more freedom.


    In the current era of the Han Dynasty, it is of course impossible to check a person''s identity with anything like a portrait, and there are no powerful identification items such as fingerprints. The only difficulty is to obtain relevant documents or imitation documents. …


    ??Imitating is too cumbersome. You need to get the real thing first, and then have a skilled craftsman make a similar one, so Yuan Yuan simply gets the real thing.


    ??No one will give him the real certificate.


    ?So some unlucky people were targeted.


    In the chaos, the spies of Cao Jun who were exposed were only covering the actions of Yuan Yuan and others, and they were dead. However, Yuan Yuan and others got the real certificate and used it to sneak into Huguan.


    Yuan Yuan is a member of the Yuan family. If we look closely, he may be related to Yuan Shao or Yuan Tan. However, it is precisely because of this relationship that he does not do well in Jizhou. Others can rely on connections to climb up, but he can only choose this dangerous path.


    Huguan defense map!


    Defense plans, including but not limited to the location, number of people, equipment, etc. of the army, as well as some internal announcements about the army, the deployment of generals and military schools, personnel situations, etc., can be said to be the key lifeblood of a city''s military.


    Of course, just a small wine shop cannot obtain a comprehensive defense map, but the general military situation is still very valuable. It can at least let Cao Jun know where Huguan has heavy troops and where it is empty. It didn''t hit the steel head first, but let go of the paper wall beside it.


    Yuan Yuan noticed that there were many old records in this defense plan, but as time went by, the number of recorded items became less and less. In the past year, there were only a few items...


    "Haha..." Yuan Yuan sneered, and then he couldn''t help but feel vigilant. It seems that he did not stop at the small wine shop, nor did he inform him that his destination was correct. Judging from the current situation, the owner of the small wine shop may have been assimilated by the Hussar!


    It’s really scary to think about it. A man who was originally born in Shandong and grew up in Shandong, and who at the beginning was a loyal soldier for the emperor and the Han, was actually assimilated under the hussar in such a short time!


    ?Where is the original loyalty?


    Can one still be called a big man?


    Yuan Yuan felt somewhat angry.


    What is left for the great man now?


    Although there are some things about Cao Cao, after all, the emperor is here with Cao Cao, in Shandong, so the place in Shandong must represent the emperor''s intention, even if everyone knows that it may not be the emperor''s own intention, but the big man is so Hasn''t it been like this for many years?


    ??If the emperor is strong, then the emperor''s own will will be carried out in the world. But if the emperor is weak, then naturally the powerful ministers will act on the emperor''s will!


    This is the tradition of the Han Dynasty, and it is also the foundation of the Han Dynasty''s three to four hundred years of establishment!


    Now that something has been developed, how can the people of Shandong accept it? !


    It’s hard to calm down!


    Yuan Yuan slowly flipped through these documents, hoping to find the weakest point in Huguan, or the most critical node, the kind that can affect the whole body with a single move. Unfortunately, there is no document record that can give him the answer. —At least he didn’t give him any clear answer.


    After all, the shopkeeper of a small wine shop does not have much ability to detect key information.


    Even the shopkeeper who has been assimilated, even if there is an opportunity, he deliberately ignores it, but this possibility may not be impossible.


    what to do?


    Should we take advantage of the fact that the harm has not been completely assimilated and take certain risks to squeeze out the remaining value as much as possible, or should we eliminate the risks as much as possible and deal with the shopkeeper of this small wine shop first?


    ?While Yuan Yuan was still hesitant, he suddenly saw a record.


    This record was written down two years ago.


    The content of the document is not complicated. It only records that Huguan recruited some civilians to repair the Huguan city wall in the late autumn and early winter two years ago, and moved some earthworks and other things within the city wall... Renovating the city wall is not a rare thing. Therefore, the owner of the small wine shop did not write too much and just recorded it out of habit. But when combined with the previous record, Yuan Yuan seemed to have found a flaw!


    Because there is a record in the front, a lot of kerosene was sent from Guanzhong to Huguan!


    ?The kerosene has a pungent smell, so you can smell it as you pass by without looking.


    In the eyes of ordinary people, these may be just two unrelated matters, but Yuan Yuan constructed a possibility in his mind. Could it be that the earthworks these farmers moved were to dig a storage place for the kerosene? place?


    Everyone knows that kerosene is dangerous and needs to be stored in a cool place and away from flames. At the same time, it must take into account defensive needs and can be used nearby. Otherwise, if the enemy attacks the city, they will have to fight from a distance. Prepare…


    Hence, the best place to store kerosene is the stone room in the turret on the city. However, the stone chamber is small and needs to store other ordnance, so the amount of kerosene stored there will not be large. So being in a cellar that is relatively close to the city wall is undoubtedly the best place!


    ??If you can find this cellar, and then take advantage of the chaos during the siege, throw a fire into it...


    ha!


    Yuan Yuan suddenly became energetic...


    …(`Д*)9…


    ?After Yuan Yuan left the small wine shop, the shopkeeper Ye Chuan closed the shop early.


    The cook in charge of the spoon didn''t know what was going on, so he was prevaricated by Ye Chuan. As long as his salary is not deducted, the chef is naturally willing to take a break early, so the restaurant quickly becomes quiet.


    Ye Chuan sat in the shadows.


    It seems that only being in the shadows can bring him some sense of security.


    No one is born willing to live in the shadows…


    ??The family and hometown he had almost forgotten surged up like a tide at this moment, rushing to his chest, making him feel sore and achy.


    He originally also read books.


    When he was studying, everyone praised him for his intelligence and his photographic memory...


    He also did not expect that his photographic memory would now be used in this regard.


    Leave your hometown because there is no room for promotion in your hometown.


    The local families in Shandong occupy almost all the places where light can be seen, not even a crack is left.


    ?The uncle who is the county magistrate, the second uncle who is Cong Cao, the uncle who is the grain chief, the third uncle who is the third elder...


    All positions with official salary, all places with authority, belong to a certain family, or are married to this family.


    The good thing is that it will never reach the end of the land, there is light, and it will never belong to other families.


    The rest of the people either stayed up slowly or left early.


    ?Ye Chuan wanted to leave, so he chose a quick way, hoping to find a place with light as soon as possible, but no one just jumped out of the cracks in the rocks. He also had a family...


    It has been three years since I left Shandong and arrived in Huguan.


    Ye Chuan also had difficulty calming down in his heart.


    He fell in love with it.


    Because here, he can see the light.


    ?The light shines on everyone, including those who study, those who serve as soldiers, and those who work on the farm.


    ?Only he doesn’t, he just belongs to the darkness.


    He also wanted to pretend that he was bright, but now, the false bubble was burst.


    Ye Chuan sighed deeply.


    On the street, people still seem to be coming and going, and there are still footsteps, but it seems to have nothing to do with him anymore...


    ?While Ye Chuan was sighing with emotion, suddenly, the door panel of the wine shop was knocked open, and several figures rushed in!


    Before Ye Chuan could react, he was held down by someone, and then his head was pressed, his hands and feet were pressed, and it was difficult to even move a finger!


    That’s him! ” An older soldier wearing a battle armor pointed at Ye Chuan with some pride, “I was eating here with a few colleagues today, and I saw someone sneakily saying something to him! And I can tell that guy seems to have a Shandong accent! 』


    These days, there is always suspicion of guilt.


    Some people from the Wen Department waved their hands, and then professional people started looking around in the wine shop.


    Soon, the secret compartment where Ye Chuan hid the money on the counter was found, and the coins inside were poured out. However, no one took a second look at the money, and no one went to take it. Instead, they continued to look for other coins. Hidden compartments, or hidden items.


    Ye Chuan looked at it in horror.


    ??When he saw someone starting to step on the table, reaching up and tapping on the wooden boards on the wall like a woodpecker, and looking at the beams, Ye Chuan closed his eyes in pain.


    Found it! 』Someone made a sound of surprise.


    Ye Chuan regretted very much. He should have thrown away or simply burned the certificates representing his Shandong identity.


    ?He couldn''t help crying, tears rolling down his face.


    He felt that he must be dead. He suddenly missed his family, his parents and his wife...


    ?Unfilial son, he, this unfilial son, failed to find a place with light in the end, and eventually died in the darkness.


    Ye Chuan was crying, while the others were laughing.


    The leader of the Wen Division patted the veteran on the shoulder and said, "Yes, you have made a contribution this time!" 』


    ?The veteran opened his mouth and laughed loudly, "How many heads can this power... be considered?" If I kill him now, can I count one more? 』


    When I heard that Si, the man also laughed and said, "This can''t be done." Don''t worry, I will report your credit to the meritorious officer tomorrow. You can have someone check it for you in two days, or you can check it yourself... You can either exchange it for something or save it. Congratulations, well done! 』


    The old soldier laughed and said repeatedly that it should be done, and then he left happily under the congratulations of the other people who heard about the situation.


    The leader of Youwen Division squatted down in front of Ye Chuan, who was **** like a domestic dolphin, "Why bother?" School Secretary, you were hiding so well... Do you know how long we have been keeping an eye on you? 』


    "how long? Ye Chuan asked.


    Two years. "Someone from the Wen Department said, "From the time you want to open a wine shop..."


    Judging from this time, it seems that the person who happened to come to contact was discovered by the old soldier, but in fact, in the internal report of the Youwen Division, it was highlighted that all restaurants, restaurants and inns are the focus of attention. . Even if the old **** is not alerted and discovered this time, as long as the behavior touches the red line, it will be noticed by others and exposed.


    Ye Chuan was stunned for a moment, then murmured, "I actually...really, I don''t want this either...I don''t want to pay attention to him either...but I have family..."


    Youwensi tilted his head slightly to listen, then smiled, "Don''t you know?" Oh, maybe you really don’t know... Qiusi is kind and can give you a way to live, and can also bring your family members to Guanzhong as much as possible..."


    "What? ! "Ye Zhenzhen doesn''t know these things.


    "But none of this is free..." Someone from Wensi said with a smile, "You have to make meritorious deeds!" Do you understand? Make meritorious service! 』


    “…” Ye Chuan fell silent. Of course he understood what meritorious service meant. After a moment, Ye Chuan asked tentatively, "If...I mean, if...if I really make a meritorious service, can I bring my family back, and then...then live like you?" 』


    Our life is the same? Youwen Si frowned and said, "You mean Youwen Si?" I''m afraid not. 』


    "No! Ye Chuan turned his attention to the wine shop, "I just... hope to keep this wine shop open... like an ordinary person..."


    A wine shop? ” The leader of the Youwen Division also looked around, and then laughed, “Well... I think there should be no problem... Of course, the premise is that you have enough merits... If your merits are big enough, you can even open a restaurant. ! 』


    Wine shop, restaurant...』


    Ye Chuan murmured, and then his eyes gradually became brighter...
