Xiong Wuliang looked at Huang Xie, who was sitting upright, and felt funny in his heart.
He was obviously so greedy that he was drooling, yet he was still caring about some kind of 'noble image' and wanted to save face and suffer the consequences.
"Huang Xie, want a bite?" Xiong Wuliang said with a smile. He did not pierce Huang Xie's self-esteem. He just used his sword to cut off a piece of roasted mutton and stuffed it in front of Huang Xie.
Huang Xie's throat, which has not yet fully developed, moved faintly.
So delicious! It smells so good!
Huang Xie finally couldn't help it. After thanking Xiong Wuliang, he took a big gulp...Xiong Wuliang thoughtfully handed over a small head of wild garlic. After a while, Huang Xie's eyes lit up and he started to devour...
Can't stop!
Ying Zhuo curled up his lips and said a little arrogantly: "This young master, the way of eating 'Xirong Barbarian' seems to suit your taste, right?"
Huang Xie's face turned red and he was very ashamed... He swallowed faster.
The two children, Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai, ate with their mouths full of oil. Until the lamb leg was eaten by everyone, Xiao Hei still licked the corner of his mouth, looking like he was still satisfied.
Xiaobai blinked his beautiful eyes and looked at Xiong Wuliang with admiration.
Xiong Wuliang put the hairless rabbit on the fire again, and did the same thing...
Ying Zhuo couldn't help but said: "Marquis Qu Yang knows so much about the eating habits of our Qin people. It seems that he has also done a lot of homework on our Qin country."
"The power of our country, Great Qin, is rising rapidly. Within a few decades, it will surely sweep the world!"
"It is said that those who know the current affairs are heroes... Why doesn't Marquis Quyang defect to our country, Great Qin, and contribute to its hegemony?"
"Making great achievements is just around the corner!"
Ying Zhuo paused and lowered his voice: "My brother Wang said that if Marquis Quyang can help him take back the royal power and help Qin Dong go out to dominate... he still won't lose the title of Marquis!"
Xiong Wuliang laughed and didn't reply.
Huang Xie, who came to the house on the first day, was beside the two of them. At this time, everyone was dumbfounded - Xiong Wuliang, why is there a Qin female barbarian in the house?
Sounds like your status in Qin is not low?
The biological sister of King Qin Yingji?
Good guy!
No wonder he had just ridiculed Qin, which angered this woman, and she in turn ridiculed him.
It turned out to be a Xirong barbarian!
Ying Zhuo refused to give up and wanted to persuade him again...
Xiong Wuliang suddenly interrupted: "Maid's maid's maid—have you paid for today's meal?"
Ying Zhuo was so angry that he said, "It's just ten gold coins! I've already married!"
This black-hearted damn Xiong Wuliang!
Xiong Wuliang said lazily: "You little maid, you are incompetent at all - look at your little girl, her face is full of oil, and you don't know how to go up and serve her."
"Ying Zhuo, don't forget your identity! You must clarify your position!"
"If you don't take good care of your lady, I will drive you back to Qin!"
Ying Zhuo was so angry that his vision went dark.
My majestic Princess Qin...
I saw Ying Zhuo coming to Xiao Bai very obediently, bending down his slender and strong waist, taking out the brocade handkerchief in his arms, and carefully wiping the corners of Xiao Bai's mouth...
Huang Xie looked at it with eyes wide open! His eyes were as wide as bells!
This, this, this, is Xiong Wuliang so proud?
Can you order the princess of Qin around?
A role model for my generation!
In the heart of young Huang Xie, the image of Quyang Hou Xiong Wuliang grew bigger and bigger...
Xiong Wuliang nodded with satisfaction: "That's right - remember to stay with your lady at all times, and don't let me catch you sleeping in broad daylight again!"
“My master’s house does not support idlers!”
Not convinced? If you are not convinced, go back to Qin! Xiong Wuliang is just waiting for you to get out of here and stop causing trouble!
…
The next morning.
Qu Yuan and Zhao Hua were sitting together in Xiong Wuliang's study, reviewing official documents diligently... Qu Yuan suddenly let out a light sigh, looking at the memorial presented in front of him.
"Doctor Qu, what's wrong?" Zhao Hua raised his head.
Qu Yuan handed the scroll of paper in his hand to Zhao Hua. Zhao Hua lowered his head and saw that it was a memorial from Hu Cong, the magistrate of Ping'a County.
"Applying to build a commercial port in Ping'a County?" Zhao Hua's eyes widened.
This Hu Cong has a lot of ideas!
Qu Yuan and Zhao Hua looked at each other: "This is a serious matter, so I have to ask the master for instructions before making a decision."
At this moment, Xiong Wuliang was sitting under the erected wild fruit vines. The weak sunlight in the morning shone through the gaps in the leaves, revealing mottled traces of sunlight on the ground.
Xiong Wuliang sat on Shi Er Xiaojing's rocking chair, rocking gently.
From time to time, I would reach out and pull off a wild fruit from the vine, take a bite, and fully feel the sweet and sour taste, with a face filled with enjoyment——
Si Yi, whose face was flushed, sat beside Xiong Wuliang and gently fanned Xiong Wuliang with the fan in her hand.
The young Xiao Bai blinked his beautiful eyes, his clean face looked like a porcelain doll, and was fanning Si Yi diligently.
Ying Zhuo had a murderous look on his face and sat unwillingly outside, fanning Xiaobai... The weather was hot, and Ying Zhuo was sweating all over, causing his clothes to wrap tightly around his body, which outlined the plump and exquisite figure of a martial arts woman. The curves made Xiong Wu's conscience secretly satisfied.
Next to Quyang Hou Xiong Wuliang, three beauties with different ages and expressions were standing beside him, which made him sigh with satisfaction.
As an aristocratic son of Da Chu, this is the life he deserves!
Without the threat of Qin, Xiong Wuliang would rather sink into this corrupt life every day!
Damn Qin!
"Your Majesty, Hu Cong has a memorial to present. We can't decide. Please tell me, Your Majesty." Qu Yuan and Zhao Hua came together.
Xiong Wuliang stood up from the rocking chair unhappily and took the memorial from Qu Yuan's hand.
"In Ping'a County, are you planning to build a commercial port?" Xiong Wuliang read out.
Qu Yuan cupped his hand and said in a deep voice: "Master, our business in Quyang County is getting bigger and bigger, and the business circle has expanded to Ping'a County... There are many business travelers coming from far away..."
"Although the roads in the fiefdom are smooth, there are too many businessmen coming and going, and even the spacious and flat cement roads are often blocked..."
"If we can build a commercial port on the edge of the Huai River, it will indeed greatly increase the transportation capacity, and at the same time reduce the cost of business trips from afar, and help the business scale of my fiefdom continue to expand!"
Xiong Wuliang nodded: "This is a good thing. Hu Cong is interested."
Qu Yuan changed the subject: "It's just... building a commercial port is not as good as building those shops on land... Judging from the budget reported by Hu Cong, it will cost a lot!"
"Whether the cost can be recovered and how long it will take to recover the cost...are all unknown."
Xiong Wuliang understood.
Also, in this era, there were no large-scale diesel-burning machines in later generations. If you wanted to build a large enough port by the river, the money and food you would consume was by no means a small amount.
Moreover, a dam has been built on the Huai River... Is the water flow downstream enough to allow ships to pass? How big a boat can it pass?
Xiong Wuliang pondered for a moment - if a commercial port could be built that could be used, it would be a waste of time, but the result would be a thousand years of work... He was afraid that the commercial port would spend a lot of money and food, but it would not be useful in the end! Isn't that a waste of money? !
Think about it, is it easy for Xiong Wuliang to make some money?
It’s not easy!
