Song Dynasty Iron Armored Army

Chapter 81

Chai Lin said: "Okay, then you go to work, as long as there is no problem."

When Shi moved away, Chai Lin took some good-quality alfalfa to the war horses to eat, and then returned to the guest room. Two plates of meat dishes, two plates of vegetarian dishes, and a dozen steamed buns were placed on the table.

Wu Song said: "Brother, the food is here, let's have lunch. I'm hungry."

Chai Lin sighed: "Erlang now knows that the battle is hard, and it is common for him to be short of food. Once, my brother was chasing horse thieves in the desert. He lived on a pot of water and a box of biscuits for seven days and seven nights. In the end, even the little lizards in the desert were killed." eaten."

"I can't go to that kind of place, and I can't live that kind of life. I belong to the natural power, but the strength in my body is like a water pump, absorbing my energy. Once I'm hungry, I will lose my temper and beat people. No matter how hungry I am It's hard to hold a needle," Wu Song said.

Chai Lin said: "Let's eat, it's still too early for the county magistrate to invite us to dinner."

The two started to eat, and the steamed buns and meat were not bad.Wu Song said while eating: "I am my brother's bodyguard. As for the county magistrate, I will not be a bird."

The two of them were really hungry, and Xiao Er added another meal halfway through, so that they were full. After resting for a while, they fell asleep and slept until the sun went down.The two put away their cowhide armor and put on casual clothes.

Wu Song took a few hundred coins to pay the restaurant bill, and the two rode on horses and rushed to the Lanjialou in the county town.

Leling County is similar to Cangzhou City, with a history of 200 years. The city wall is low, that is, five meters high, and the ancient blue bricks exude the vicissitudes of history.

At the beginning of the night, the city is full of people coming and going, and the peddlers who carry the burden are hawking back and forth.

Leling is a small town with only about [-] households. There are about [-] shops on the east and west streets, and there are many wandering vendors.

Chai Lin sighed: "Hey, this magistrate of Shi County is really good. There are small vendors all over the street, and they are allowed to set up stalls for an extra ten points."

Wu Song asked: "I haven't seen a city where stalls are not allowed. The city refers to the city wall. Of course, the city is for selling things. If there are only city walls and no vendors selling things, wouldn't it be unpopular?"

"Get off the horse and take the lead, there are too many people." Chai Lin said as he got off the horse, and Wu Song took the horse to the Lanjialou, a three-story stilted building with carved beams and painted columns, and a huge lantern hanging in front of the door. With the three characters Lanjialou.

A master with a white fan was waiting at the door. When he saw Chai Lin and Wu Song coming, he came over and bowed his head and said, "Chai Tuanlian, you are here. Hurry up. Please come upstairs. Lord Shi and Lord Li are waiting for you."

"Okay, let's go up." Chailin handed the horse to Xiao Er.

The master said: "You bodyguard, why don't you rest downstairs."

Chai Lin said displeasedly: "This is not my bodyguard, but my brother."

Master Bai Fan said, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, look at my eyes, you should hit me, you should hit me."

A group of people went upstairs to the private room on the third floor, at least hundreds of large candles were lit, and there was a huge round table.Shi Wenbing is dressed as a literati, wearing a white satin dress, and even holding a fan for the sake of effect in cold weather, which looks a bit refined.Li Xianwei next to him is dressed in arrow sleeves, dressed like a warrior.

Shixian County Magistrate greeted him at the door and said, "Welcome to Chai Tuanlian, brother, I will ask you to call you Brother Chai. Brother Chai, please come inside."

Chai Lin smiled and said: "Hahaha, Lord Shi, Lord Li, you two don't need to be so polite, come in quickly."

A group of five people sat down, and everyone greeted each other and introduced each other. Although there were a lot of people, the protagonists were Chai Lin and Shi Wenbing.

The table has not been served yet, but there are fresh and dried fruits, raisins and tangerines.There were a few sheets of soft table paper on the bone plate. Chai Lin picked it up and saw that the paper was very good, and there was no such high-end paper in Zuixianlou.

Shi Wenbing said: "This is bamboo paper from Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces. It is made of fine bamboo pulp. It is bright and white in color. Of course, this is table paper that emphasizes softness and is not suitable for writing."

Chai Lin praised: "It's really good paper, I'm afraid it's not cheap."

"That's natural. A hundred sheets of paper cost fifty Wen for daily use by rich and noble families, which is not something ordinary people can use." Li Xianwei said.

Speak unintentionally, listen intently.

It was as if a huge lightning had struck in Chailin's heart, illuminating his entire heart. As a time traveler, he only thought about soap and soap, why didn't he consider making paper and selling it for money?
From the Western Han Dynasty to the Great Song Dynasty, Chinese papermaking technology has gone through more than a thousand years, and the technological process is quite familiar.

Just at this moment, the waiter brought up a famous dish, a roasted golden whole lamb on a huge tray.

Behind the guy was a beautiful woman in blue, with slender eyebrows and almond eyes, a small cherry mouth, and a fair and tender face.He is of medium stature and slender, with a willow slender waist.

County Lieutenant Li saw it and was about to hold his hand, but the girl cleverly avoided him.

The beauty in blue said: "Lord Shi, Lord Li, and Officer Chai, this is our restaurant's special dish, called Roasted Whole Lamb with Honey. The goats are free-range goats that eat green grass and drink spring water. They must be more than [-] catties and must be big enough. There is also a roasted rabbit in the belly, and a dragon bird in the belly of the rabbit. Therefore, whether it is mutton or rabbit meat, there is a taste of dragon bird, which is extremely delicious."

Shi County Magistrate said: "Boss Lan Hai came to serve the dishes in person. It's really hard work. Sit down and pay the firewood for a few drinks."

Boss Lan pulled a chair and sat down, and said: "Master Shi and Lord Li are the parents of this county. Mr. Chai is a dignitary in Cangzhou. No matter how unruly I, Lan Xiner, have to come and accompany me at the bar."

As Lan Xin spoke, she poured wine for the five of them.

Shi Wenbing smiled and said, "Hahaha, this boss Lan has a sweet mouth."

After chatting for a while, Lan Xiner asked: "Mr. Chai, when will your Zuixian Tower open to Leling County?"

While eating the roasted mutton, Chai Lin said, "Boss Lan is so big-hearted, you are not afraid that Zuixianlou will come and snatch your business from Lanjialou."

Lan Xiner smiled and said: "Look at what you said, the Chai family has a big business, soap and carriages are all profitable businesses every day, and the restaurant is just a place to eat. Besides, there has never been one Exclusive business, my Lanjia Building can be opened in Leling, how come you are not allowed to come to Zuixianlou?"

"Boss Lan is really a hero among girls, Chai admires him." Chai Lin praised.

After drinking two cups with everyone, Lan Xiner said: "My lords, please drink slowly, I will take my leave first."

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

The magistrate of Shi County spoke up and said, "Chai Tuanlian, your township soldier has just been formed, and there are many difficulties. I, Leling County, can't help you with money and food. However, there are [-] cowhide confiscated last year in the warehouse. It is the best old cowhide. The farmers have processed the leather handed over by the old cows. It is durable. I thought it would be good to make boots and armor for the village soldiers. I will allocate it to the firewood team tomorrow for training."

Chai Lin was very happy. Cowhide has always been controlled by the government, and there are very few private traders. Unexpectedly, Shi Wenbing sent [-] pieces at once, and immediately said: "Thank you so much, Mr. Shi. Is there anything that Mr. Shi needs to help in the future?" Be blunt though."

Shi Wenbing said: "There are really some things that I need to ask Chai Tuanlian for help."

　Ask for favorites and recommendations, it's a matter of convenience.
