Chapter 1103: Raisins
After solving the 'internal trouble' of the Mo family, the entire Chinese army tent immediately returned to harmony, and now they are all as black as crows in the world.
No, it should be said that the crow of the Mo family is darker, and in terms of actual value, the benefits of the Mo family are even more than that of Hou Junji.
Hou Junji looked around and said loudly: "There is only one topic for this summoning of you, that is, the battle of the Western Expedition has ended, and it is time to report to the imperial court." ”
"Victory!"
The generals couldn't help but show joy, now that Gaochang has fallen in the whole territory, and the Western Turks are thousands of miles away, the Tang Army's strategy of this trip to the west has been achieved, and it is a great victory, which is a great success.
And I believe that this good news will definitely satisfy the court, and all the generals can be rewarded for their meritorious deeds.
Xue Wanjun took the lead in nodding in support: "We are thousands of miles away from Datang, and the communication between us is not smooth, I am afraid that the court has already been anxious. ”
"Yes, now that Gaochang has been decided, as for how to deal with Gaochang and Koji Zhisheng, it still needs to be decided by the court, I will wait to write the big boss and just listen to the order." Niu Jinda said rudely, and the other generals nodded one after another, they only had to march and fight, and how to deal with Gaochang next depends on the decision of the court.
Hou Junji nodded and said, "Since this is the case, then General Ben will send good news to the court." ”
Soon, in front of the eyes of all the generals, a detailed report has been written, Hou Junji did not hesitate to list the merits of the generals one by one, of course, the most colorful is the firearms supervisor led by Mo Jiazi, after all, the merit of breaking the city with one blow cannot be concealed.
As the report was sent out, the generals dispersed one after another, and the next thing they had to do was to stabilize the situation in Gaochang and wait for the next order from the imperial court.
And the Mo family was not idle, and after the meeting, he directly led Zhang Mu to the cotton workshop and wine workshop in Gaochang City to take over comprehensively.
The generals who got the news couldn't help but smile, as we all know, Zhang Mu is a craftsman brought into the firearms prison by the Mo family, proficient in various ink skills, once Zhang Mu is out, these two ink skills that Gao Chang relied on to become famous, for the Mo family, there is no secret at all.
"This is Bai Diezi? Sure enough! In the Gaochang White Stacks Workshop, Morton picked up a beautiful white stack and praised it.
"Go back to Mohou! This white stack weaving technology is the king of Gaochang from Tianzhu introduced, can Mo Hou a good comment on the villain's honor. The cotton workshop steward on the side said excitedly.
It stands to reason that as the culprit of the attack on Gaochang City, the people of Gaochang should gnash their teeth at Mo Jiazi, but the attitude of the industrial community in Gaochang is difficult to understand, Mo Jiazi is a legendary figure in their mouth, and he is the leader of the industrial community, even in Gaochang is still famous, and all kinds of deeds are widely spread.
Especially this time, Mo Jiazi used gunpowder to show the strength of craftsmen, and conquered the industrial world of Gaochang at once.
"This method is very different from Datang textile technology, and after the introduction of Datang, it is confirmed that each other will definitely improve." Merton nodded.
The cotton workshop steward on the side moved in his heart, and said with longing in his eyes: "Please also ask Mohou to be gracious, I don't know if the villain can follow Mohou to Datang." ”
"You also want to go to Datang?" Merton couldn't help but be surprised.
This time, he mainly took away blacksmiths and carpenters, as for the cotton workshop, the Mo family mainly learned technology and collected excellent cotton seeds, and did not ask to take away these cotton workshop people, and Datang did not lack this kind of people at all, I didn't expect the other party to take the initiative to ask to go to Datang.
The workshop manager nodded and said: "That's natural, Datang is the land of the Central Plains, the richest place in the world, who doesn't want to go." ”、
The surrounding cotton craftsmen nodded one after another, and couldn't help but show a yearning look, although Gaochang is much richer than the surrounding countries, but the craftsmen at the bottom are still living very hard.
Merton suddenly realized that the current Datang Dynasty has a much higher international status than the United States in later generations, and it has naturally become a place that everyone yearns for, not to mention, they are following the famous Mo family this time.
"But now Mojia Village is no longer involved in the cotton spinning business." Merton was embarrassed.
A group of cotton craftsmen couldn't help but show a disappointed look, this is their best chance to get rid of their fate, the Western Regions are constantly in turmoil, how can the Central Plains be stable.
"However, there is a Majia village in the northwest that is engaged in the cotton spinning business, if you are willing, Mo can place you there, and Mo can ensure that you have no worries about food and clothing." Merton's heart moved, and he thought of the idle chess he had unintentionally arranged.
Majia Village has just emerged, and I am afraid that it is the time when it needs manpower, and these skilled cotton spinning craftsmen in Gaochang may be the talents that Majia Village urgently needs.
"As long as we can enter Datang, we don't dare to hope to enter the land of Chang'an." The steward of the cotton workshop said happily that as long as they could enter the Tang Dynasty, they would be satisfied, not to mention the work arranged by Mo Jiazi himself.
What is surprising is that the craftsmen of the cotton workshop who should not have been taken away are vying to enter the Tang Dynasty, but the wine craftsmen named by Mo Jiazi to bring back to the Tang Dynasty are extremely resistant to going to the Tang Dynasty, and even destroy the secret skills, so that there is a lot of turmoil.
When Merton arrived at the winery, he saw two sides at a stalemate.
"The young master forgives the sin, Zhang Mu disappointed the young master." Zhang Mu stepped forward and apologized again and again.
"What's going on?" Merton frowned.
Zhang Mu had to tell the truth with a wry smile, he first went to the wine workshop to make wine, and the secret recipe was extremely uncooperative, and even destroyed the winemaking process.
Although he has a deep knowledge of ink, he has only mastered eighty percent of the secret techniques of winemaking, and one or two top-secret techniques have been kept private by the winemaker.
And a group of winemakers are even more reluctant to go to the Tang Dynasty, knowing the secret skills is one thing, whether you can make wine is another thing, you must need experienced winemakers to make successful grape wine, plus Zhang Mu is not a martial artist, soft-hearted, this caused such a big turmoil.
"We can make wine for Mohou, but the winemaking workshop must stay in Gaochang, and we must not go to Datang." An old winemaker with gray hair said firmly, even in the face of the famous Mo family, he still insisted.
Morton stared at the old winemaker in front of him, and immediately understood that this person was the backbone of the wine workshop, and couldn't help frowning: "Mo admits that Gaochang wine has uniqueness, but it is a long way from Gaochang to Datang, and only rich places such as Luoyang, Chang'an can have a market, and its transportation cost is more than ten times the cost of brewing. ”
In this era, the biggest cost is the transportation cost, Gaochang is too far away from Datang, how much is the grape, and the journey of 7,000 miles is the biggest cost of wine.
The old winemaker couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Mohou is worthy of the name of turning stone into gold, and he breaks through the weakness of Gaochang wine in one word, and the old man also believes that wine will definitely be carried forward in the hands of the Mo family, if it weren't for the old man's reluctance to those fruit farmers, he would definitely follow Mohou without hesitation." ”
"Growers?" Merton couldn't help but be surprised, and then he understood the reason for the old winemaker's refusal to go to Datang.
The old winemaker nodded and said, "Yes, Gaochang has a unique climate and is rich in grapes, but how many grapes can Gaochang consume alone?" Besides, grapes cannot be eaten for food. In desperation, Gaochang will make grapes into wine, in exchange for money and food, once we leave, the winery will be closed, those fruit farmers will suffer heavy losses, no longer have a livelihood, but also Mohou Haihan, and love the people of Gaochang. ”
The old winemaker obviously has some knowledge, and even the Mo family's concept of love has been moved out.
Hearing this, Merton couldn't help but laugh and said: "What's so difficult about this, if Mo finds a livelihood for grape farmers and earns even more than making wine, then can the old man go to Datang with confidence."
"Earn more than you make wine." The old winemaker couldn't help but be stunned.
Merton got up and wiped his sweat, now it was just summer, Gaochang was already scorching hot, and a wave of heat hit, which reminded Merton of a famous delicacy in later generations, a unique delicacy that only this basin in the country can produce - raisins.
