Chapter 783: Celebration Banquet and Zhuangxing Wine

The owners of the restaurants in Baoding City were only notified the day before (considering safety issues, Qin Shuhuai could not be notified in advance, otherwise he would be poisoned on a large scale in case of mixing with spies), but after receiving the notice, he spontaneously got together to discuss the largest flowing water banquet in the history of Baoding City.

First of all, they demarcated the "sphere of influence," and there were more than 32,000 soldiers, according to a table of 10 people, a total of 2,300 tables? There were 121 large and small restaurants participating in the banquet.

At the beginning, the rule was that the big restaurant had more tables, and the small restaurant had fewer tables, but soon the owner of the small restaurant quit.

Now that the imperial court has a new policy, business and travel are weaving, and the people have a lot of spare money in their hands, which restaurant is not doing better business than before? Let's make a month's money in vain, can we come and reward the soldiers?

You must know that according to the regulations, if any restaurant is responsible for making the table of banquets, there is a sign of that restaurant next to it! That is propaganda, and it is even more face! People are placed on dozens of tables and dozens of tables, and if you insert a slip of brand, you can insert two or three brands, and you will not be cold?

After some quarrels, everyone finally decided that the average score of each restaurant was about 19 tables per restaurant.

So the owners of all the restaurants went into battle in person, and Zhang Luo made all kinds of specialty dishes by himself. As for the ingredients, most of them are bought from other places - because the price of vegetables in Baoding City has risen so much that they can't buy it, and they have to consider the cost if they are generous, right?

As for the fact that Grandpa Guo promised that all expenses could be reimbursed, no one took it seriously at all.

Just kidding, who is embarrassed to ask Grandpa Guo for some money?

In short, at this banquet, not only can every soldier eat and drink at the table, but also the table is full of good wine and good food!

On July nights, the cool breeze is refreshing.

The smell of food on the street is accompanied by the aroma of wine, which makes people salivate.

No one had informed the group of soldiers beforehand, they had only been ordered to go into the city for the night, but when they entered the city and saw a table of delicacies, they could have guessed no matter how stupid they were.

At the time of the expedition, the food in the army can be imagined. Especially in the second half of the period, the grain and grass were all requisitioned from the Western Regions, and they were not used to eating it!

Now that they can finally eat authentic Middle-earth food, can that not excite them?

Swallow saliva, swallow saliva again.

Bear with it, endure it again.

When their lord gave the order that they should be seated, there was a shout of joy.

Whether it was the Demon Sect Soldiers, the Martial Arts Soldiers, or the Imperial Court Soldiers, they were completely integrated at this moment, everyone shouted, laughed, drank together, and ate meat together, that kind of delicious food ordinary people couldn't experience at all.

Eat openly, eat happily, it doesn't matter if you are drunk tonight, the grandfather of the country will speak, as long as it does not disturb the people, he will be pardoned.

And in Baoding Governor's Yamen, it is even more lively.

Can you imagine who attended this banquet?

Needless to say, the Jianghe Gang, Meng Wei, Meng Hu, Lai San'er, Pi Gou, Zhang Xiao, Chen Jing, Qiu Dali and others are all here, and even Lao Dao has rushed over from Tianjin, that is, Hua Shen is still in the south to preside over Zheng Zhilong's water army, and he can't come for the time being.

On the Demon Sect's side, Mei Yinzhi, Jin Gang, Wu Lie, Chen Hou, Fujisanren, the Three Apostles, the Six Apostles, and Shen Xi are all here.

On the side of the imperial court, there are Li Dingguo, Lu Xiangsheng, He Renlong, Du Wenhuan and other generals.

It can be described as a full of talents and elites!

What's more, most of them are still good drinkers.

After Qin Shuhuai sat down, he first poured a full bowl of wine, and said to everyone, "All the soldiers, martial arts and good brothers of the Sun and Moon Sect, in Qin Shuhuai, thank you for the people of the Ming Dynasty! Thank you for sweeping away the troubles of the Western Regions, thank you for opening up the road to the west, and thank you for raising the prestige of the Ming Dynasty! This glass of wine, I respect you! I respect the loyal souls who sacrificed in the Western Regions!"

Everyone raised their wine glasses and drank them all! Even Lu Xiangsheng, who rarely drank alcohol, drank a full bowl of wine!

After this glass of wine, the feast really begins!

The hall immediately pushed the cup and changed the lamp, staggered, at first it was quite civilized, you respect me, I respect you, half an hour later, the style of painting suddenly changed, stand up, jump on the chair, jump on the chair, laugh and cry and point at each other to scold.

"No, old man, you fucking blocked a knife for me in Ruoqiang, and now I dare not finish drinking this jar of wine, and I am not finished with you. He Renlong pointed at the Fujisan people and scolded.

This posture seems to be blocked by two scattered people for him to the point that he is still owed to him, which is completely illogical!

But the two scattered people laughed, "Hahaha, Brother He, don't worry, I didn't say I wouldn't drink! ”

Du Wenhuan pointed at another person and scolded, "Chen Hou, you are not fucking kind! Obviously I am the main force to fight Hami and you will cooperate, you are good, you have attacked the city before we arrived, and you have arrested all the old kings, so I can't even see anyone! What do you say?"

Chen Hou, who has always been calm and honest, smiled slightly, knowing that Du Wenhuan was drinking too much and messing around, but he still said, "General Du, I didn't think it through, hehe." I admit punishment, accept punishment!"

After speaking, he picked up a jar of wine and poured it down.

But before he could finish speaking, Du Wenhuan staggered over again, put his arm around Chen Hou's shoulders and said, "Master Chen Qi, I should respect you, I respect you! Really, I respect you demons...... Oh no, the Sun and Moon Sect are all good men!

Chen Hou still just smiled, then said "dry" and continued to drink the wine in the jar.

Qin Shuhuai was happy to see these pictures.

After a year of fighting side by side, the Demon Cult and the official army finally reconciled completely.

In this way, the victory rate of the Northern Expedition has increased again!

A celebration banquet has greatly boosted morale. Today's coalition army, the morale has soared.

The next day, Qin Shuhuai took the main generals of the Western Expedition, including several main generals of the Demon Sect, to the Forbidden City. Chongzhen wanted to summon them personally.

The rest of the soldiers rested near Baoding City.

Chongzhen specially approved a million taels of silver for the army, and Qin Shuhuai added one million taels for himself - the wharf of the Jianghe Gang made a lot of money this year.

Two million taels of silver will be sent directly, and a person can get about 50 taels on average, which is definitely a large amount.

It was the first time in these veterans' careers that he felt like a rich man.

Chongzhen summoned Mei Yinzhi and others in the Forbidden City, who were once sworn enemies of each other, but now they are sitting together and chatting about the future.

Qin Shuhuai naturally accompanied, you must know that if a master like Mei Yinzhi wants to assassinate Chongzhen at close range, these inner guards will definitely not be able to stop it—although the possibility of this is very small now.

Mei Yinzhi didn't say much, just Guan Chongzhen's words and deeds, and secretly recorded them in his heart.

Chongzhen, although he has the dignity of an emperor, but when it comes to excitement, there is still some youthful madness, this is an ambitious emperor.

Plum Seal Notes.

Chongzhen, although he has a little lack of experience in governing the country, but whenever he talks about the people of the world, there is always a light in his eyes, this is an emperor who wants to go down in history.

Plum Seal Notes.

Chongzhen, although the power fell to Qin Shuhuai, he seemed to have no scruples, every time he looked at Qin Shuhuai, there was always a smile on his face, it seemed that they were really like brothers.

Plum Seal Notes.

Chongzhen talked about his plan to reduce the tax, and vowed to let the world be exempted from land tax forever, and in the future, he would also issue subsidies to farmers in difficulty. He promised never to increase the current tax rate, and said that he would build official roads, water conservancy, and education throughout the country......

Everyone has food, everyone has books to read, everyone has work to do, and if the people of the Ming Dynasty go to sea and travel far away, they will have a powerful court behind them to support them.

The people of Daming will never be bullied!

One by one, the plum seal was written down.
