Chapter 17 Any Price

As a military general, Wei Qing was also a greedy man.

After just one sip of the wine, the wine bug in my stomach couldn't be restrained anymore, and I poured bowl after bowl into my mouth.

After drinking four or five bowls in a row, Wei Qing's face turned red, and he looked at Liu Che excitedly and said, "Your Majesty, this wine is indeed strong enough, and I drink a lot of it, but after just a few bowls of wine, I'm a little dizzy!"

Liu Che drank no less than Wei Qing and was a little drunk.

But he still spoke loudly: "You just drank a few bowls and you fainted, but I'm still awake!"

Wei Qing gave a thumbs up reflexively and said: "Your Majesty, this is a huge amount, which I can't reach at all. In addition to feeling dizzy, I also feel like there is a fire burning in my stomach!"

If all our soldiers fighting in Mobei drink this wine, we will no longer have to worry about the cold in Mobei, and we can sweep the Huns by then!"

Liu Che's eyes suddenly lit up.

Wei Qing's words woke him up.

Such a strong wine can not only be enjoyed, but can also be used as an auxiliary tool in war.

"Mr. Tang, did you brew this wine?"

Liu Che asked Tang Qi urgently.

Tang Qi shrugged his shoulders and said: "Of course, I have said that I was the only one on this island, and I did all the work by myself!"

Liu Che immediately went on to ask: "Excuse me, Mr. Tang, does it cost a lot to brew this jar of wine? Can ordinary people like me make it?"

After asking these questions, Liu Che felt uneasy in his heart.

He was afraid that this kind of strong liquor could only be produced in Penglai Immortal Island and that mortals would not be able to reproduce it.

Tang Qi said casually: "This is just ordinary grain wine. What does it cost? It just consumes more energy and manpower!"

"Is this true?"

Liu Che's eyes widened in disbelief.

Tang Qi nodded and said: "Of course it is true. You seem to be a drinker. How could you not understand the cost of food and wine?"

Liu Che had drunk grain wine before, but he had never drunk such a clear and strong wine, and he really didn't understand the cost.

After Tang Qi answered, Liu Che was overjoyed.

"That's great. If you can brew such a strong wine using only grain, then every soldier of my Han Dynasty can have a pot in hand. Then I will sweep across Mobei!"

Liu Che was so arrogant that he seemed to have seen the destruction of the Xiongnu.

Tang Qi couldn't help laughing and said: "Are you dreaming? In ancient times, alcohol was prohibited in the military. Excessive drinking could easily cause mutiny, and it would also cause problems and delay the war. You didn't do your homework well. The real Liu Che wouldn't

Such a ridiculous idea!”

Liu Che was stunned for a moment, then blushed.

He just had a flash of inspiration in his mind and expressed his thoughts without careful consideration.

Now that Tang Qi said this, he understood.

It's really not appropriate to bring alcohol in the military.

When soldiers drink, they may indeed mutiny and relax their vigilance against the enemy.

When a general drinks alcohol, his mind is unclear and he is prone to giving wrong orders.

Drinking is only suitable before the army goes out for battle and after the victory.

"well!"

Liu Che sighed and said: "It's a pity that such strong wine can only satisfy the desire of the mouth and tongue, and has no other effect!"

Tang Qi raised his eyebrows and said: "Who said that? This strong liquor is very powerful. In addition to drinking it directly, it can also sterilize and disinfect, and it can also help to burn fire!"

"Sterilization?" Liu Che asked confusedly, "What does this mean?"

The ancients had no concept of sterilization and disinfection at all.

After many people were injured, they did not disinfect the wound in time, which eventually led to inflammation of the wound and then death. It was very tragic.

Tang Qi picked up a chopstick of fish with distiller's grains and put it into his mouth. While chewing it, he said, "You don't even know about sterilization. Have you graduated from elementary school?"

Adhering to the spirit of not being ashamed to ask questions, Liu Che said humbly: "I completed all the subjects in Taixue a few years ago, and even earlier in elementary school, but I really don't know what 'sterilization and disinfection' means. Please explain it to Mr. Tang.

!”

Tang Qi sighed and said: "It's a shame that you still know Taixue. Forget it, let me tell you about it. This sterilization is to use smearing or spraying to restore those that affect the wound and bring diseases to people.

All the dirty things are killed and eliminated, which can greatly reduce the probability of wound suppuration and infection and reduce the risk of disease."

"It... actually has such a miraculous effect?"

Liu Che was dumbfounded and shocked.

As an emperor with great talent and great strategy, Liu Che naturally knew what a suppurating wound meant to a soldier on the battlefield.

If the probability of wound suppuration can be reduced, the combat mortality rate of soldiers can be reduced a lot.

Every soldier who was injured but survived was an elite in the military.

As long as there are enough elites, it will not be a problem to conquer the world.

Thinking of this, Liu Che suddenly became excited.

At this time, Tang Qi suddenly poured cold water and said: "Of course the wine you and Lao Wei are drinking now does not have such magical effects. Only alcohol can sterilize and disinfect!"

"Alcohol?"

Liu Che was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't wait to ask: "Mr. Tang, how can I get this alcohol? Please tell me, I can pay any price!"

Liu Che was mentally prepared for heavy bleeding.

In his opinion, the alcohol Tang Qi mentioned must be a treasure from the Fairy Island, so it has miraculous effects.

For the treasures of the Fairy Island, no amount of sacrifice is too much.

Tang Qi squinted at Liu Che and said, "If you want alcohol, you just need to add a few more distillation and purification procedures when making wine. Is this worth the price you pay?"

In modern society, medical alcohol has become very popular.

Even if you don’t know how to make it yourself, you can buy it at any drugstore.

Tang Qi just felt that Liu Che was just pretending to be stupid.

However, Tang Qi also admired Liu Che. In order to play the role of the heroic Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, this guy was involved in the play almost every moment.

Being a liar really offends this guy.

This guy should act in a movie, he is definitely an experienced actor, he is awesome.

"Mr. Tang, what does distillation mean?"

Liu Che asked again.

Although he has never made wine, he has visited the royal brewery and has a certain understanding of wine making.

Due to limited materials, brewing in the Han Dynasty actually did not involve distillation, it was just simple brewing.

Therefore, the alcohol content of Han Dynasty wine was generally not high.

Tang Qi was a little speechless at this time.

He felt like he was facing a curious primary school student.

But he himself is not a patient teacher.

There is no such thing as being instructive.

"If you are really interested in brewing alcohol, you will know everything when you help me when I brew alcohol another day. Now hurry up and eat!"
