Chapter 287 We Have Not Been Disturbed
Zhu Wei searched the properties of the Huang clan in Xiling City, and won't mention how much property he got. He only said that Zhu Wei hosted a banquet for the remaining big families in Xiling City in the prefect's mansion.
That night, the family members of the big families who received the message from Zhu Weisuo naturally did not dare to neglect, they changed their clothes one after another, brought some gifts, and then drove to the Jiangxia Prefect's Mansion in Xiling City to have a banquet.
However, Zhu Wei didn't take the gifts they brought now into his heart. This time Zhu Wei wanted them to bleed a lot, so there were boxes and boxes of bamboo slips and books piled up in the banquet hall held by Zhu Wei.
This includes the roster of young and strong families in Xiling County who helped Huang Zu defend the city this time, as well as the case files of these big families who previously bribed Huang Zu to smooth out their oppression of the people.
Every representative of a large family in Xiling City who came to the banquet, after being welcomed into the seats in the banquet hall, saw these bamboo slips piled up in front of them, and their hearts skipped a beat.
Zhu Wei purposely asked people to spread out some of these bamboo slips, so that the people who came to the banquet could sneak a peek at the contents of the bamboo slips. Surprised, they muttered and discussed in secret, wondering what Zhu Wei wanted to do when he invited them to the banquet this time.
"Oh, why is this roster here, it's over, it's over!"
"Everyone, wait and see why Zhu Wei summoned us to a banquet. Why is this roster..."
"It seems that there is no good feast, no good meeting, I'm afraid something will happen!"
There were dozens of big families in Xiling City, and the banquet hall was soon filled, but quite a few people showed a bit of panic on their faces.
When it was almost time for the people to arrive, the copper iron cloud plaque was rang outside the banquet hall, and then some servants brought wine, food, vegetables and fruits and returned them. In addition, some maidservants came up to serve the wine and so on.
But before Zhu Wei appeared, how could the people here be in the mood to eat and drink.
However, Zhu Wei didn't let the banquet guests here wait long, and quickly walked out from behind the side screen of the main seat in the banquet hall, and sat behind the chairman's table. Mu Lan followed Zhu Wei with a sword, and sat sideways In the guard position next to Zhu Wei.
Seeing Zhu Wei appeared, the chaotic movement in the banquet hall gradually calmed down.
Zhu Wei swept his eyes across the hall, looked at the expressions of the people attending the banquet, poured himself a jug of turbid wine, stood up with a smile, and saluted all the big and small families of Xiling City in the banquet hall one time.
"Good people of Xiling, Wei is being polite here, but this time he used troops in Jiang Xia, but it surprised you all. I don't know if the soldiers under Wei have harassed your houses! If you have offended you, then Wei is here to make an apology. Come! Come, everyone, please drink up to the full!"
Zhu Wei covered his mouth with his left sleeve, raised his head and drank the wine. In fact, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, in addition to drinking wine, many nobles also liked to use lacquerware wooden bowls to drink.
The wine they use is also filtered, and the color is much clearer, so when poured into red-bottomed lacquerware dishes, the overall look is much more delicate.
But Zhu Wei knew that the lacquerware of this year actually contained toxins, and long-term use would only allow the lacquer poisons to slowly accumulate in the body, affecting health.
Therefore, Zhu Weining can use bronze or silver wine cups, and then use silver bowls, silver plates, or small copper tripod vessels to load food, which is much safer than those lacquerware.
The banquets held by Zhu Wei also mainly use wine ranks. Of course, most of Zhu Wei's side are military generals now. It made the generals around Zhu Wei even more happy.
Therefore, this has become Zhu Wei's practice in holding banquets, only using the wine jue, not the lacquerware of the wine plate.
As for Zhu Wei's drinking capacity, it's not bad. After all, the turbid wine these days is at most the alcohol level of beer and rice wine, and many of them can only be regarded as sour and sweet fermented rice. Zhu Wei is not afraid of getting drunk.
Zhu Wei also thought about whether he could distill high-quality wine for sale, but wine making was a waste of food. For Zhu Wei, who valued grain reserves very much, he really didn't want to waste food on wine making.
However, it is not so easy to distill high-grade wine from berries, fruits and the like. It seems that the high-grade wine after distillation of fruit wine is brandy.
Although Zhu Wei is now also promoting fruit wine made from apples, pears, and hawthorns in Yuzhang, most of the alcohol content is not very high, and the fruit wine has a sweet and sour taste, which is not as pure as the rice wine made from grain. They are not used to drinking fruit wine, but women like Wang Yuyan and Mu Lan prefer the taste of fruit wine.
As for the distillation of high-grade wine, although it is also under development in Yuzhang Jianghufang, the purpose is not for drinking, but to purify alcohol or something, which can be used for disinfection and healing on the battlefield.
However, most of the wine used by Zhu Wei for holding banquets today is also fruit wine. Zhu Wei took the lead in drinking fruit wine by taking into account the characteristics of good at the top and effective at the bottom. As for the consumption of food, as for fruits and the like, it doesn't matter how much you consume.
In addition, doing so can also promote Yuzhang's current brand of fruit wine and increase the sales of Yuzhang fruit wine.
Zhu Wei, who was born as an otaku codewriter, may not understand business so well. It can be seen that he has seen the commercial market in modern society. He can't butcher pigs and eat meat. Zhu Wei can always think of some ways to rely on It's like painting a gourd.
Therefore, Zhu Wei will often reflect some commercial propaganda in his own life. In Zhu Wei's current local governance, it can be regarded as a trend of the military, agriculture, industry, and business going hand in hand.
Well, I won’t say much about this, but now that Zhu Wei is toasting to the people from the big and small families of Xiling City who came to the banquet, the people from big and small families here naturally also got up one after another, returned the salute to Zhu Wei, and said in their mouths with various words.
"We have never been disturbed, Qian Tanghou's soldiers are really rare good soldiers in the world! Let's drink together!" !", "Drink together, drink together!"
"Okay! There is actually a reason why Zhu Wei used troops in Jiangxia this time. The old father's skeleton coffin returned from Xijing to Jiangdong. All the way along the way, all the places can be regarded as old-fashioned for the old father. I don't want to be here before. In Jiang Xia, soldiers of Huang Zu said that the coffin should be opened for strict investigation, wouldn’t it be extremely abominable! Although the coffin has not been opened since then, the coffin of Wei’s old father was beaten by Jiang Xia’s soldiers several times, which is a great shame! , Wei dare not be negligent, so he can only bring troops to Jiangxia, and teach Huang Zu the truth!"
Zhu Wei looked at some trembling members of the big and small families in Xiling City in the banquet hall, and deliberately explained his reason for using Jiang Xia, saying that his attack on Jiang Xia this time was justified and reasonable.
"Now that Huang Zu is dead, everything is settled. However, the land of Jiangxia must not be left unattended. Therefore, the guard is going to report to Yangzhou Shepherd Liu Muzhou to find someone to take care of Jiangxia for the court. Let's wait until the court chooses another famous person to be the prefect of Jiangxia! Before the imperial court appoints the prefect of Jiangxia, Wei is afraid that he will disturb all good people in Jiangxia, I hope you will do your best to help Wei as you did to Huang Zu before!"
When Zhu Wei said this, he deliberately glanced at the boxes containing the bamboo slips. Although he didn't say anything clearly, there was some threat and other meanings in his words.
"Ah, that's natural, that's natural, we will do our best to help you sir!"
People from big and small families in Xiling City hurriedly flattered Zhu Wei, but they seemed to realize something in their hearts, but how dare they refute at this time...
