Chapter 16 Quick Projects (6)

The pain caused by distillation finally subsided, and Zhu Erniu completely regained his vitality. The guy who was still as stupid as a half hour ago was already walking around the workshop, muttering: "What kind of jb things are there outside?" He was preparing to drink at the same time.

Huo Chong was amused, but found that even though he knew that he was having a funny feeling at this time, he could not have any emotions in his body. This was a sign of exhaustion of energy. He could only persuade: "Brother Zhu, don't worry."

Zhu Erniu replied excitedly: "What's wrong? Brother Huo, if you bring the wine out, you have to shut up all the goods."

Huo Chong shook his head. Although he couldn't tell why, Huo Chong still felt it was unnecessary. Seeing that Zhu Erniu was about to go out to argue with others, Huo Chong advised: "Brother Zhu, I'll sleep for a while. I'll talk about it when I wake up."

At this time, Huo Chong really couldn't stand it, his eyelids seemed to be filled with lead. He found a bunk and lay up on his head, feeling comfortable all over.

As the violent shaking was heard, Huo Chong heard a shout from a distant place: "Senior Brother! Senior Brother! Help!"

As soon as he lay down, someone called him. Huo Chong forced himself to open his eyes, and his eyes were burning, and his eyes were blurred. The shouting was also clearly heard. Liu Shiwang shouted at the top of his lungs: "Senior Brother, save me!"

He rubbed his eyes hard, but he saw that the sky was dark. Huo Chong remembered that it was still bright when he lay down, so why...

Just as I was about to ask whether it was evening or early morning, I heard someone scolding and crying at the door, and there were punches and kicks. Huo Chong quickly stood up, feeling that every joint was making a sour protest. He almost stood up.

Huo Chong looked around for a while and finally found a wooden stick. When he went over and picked it up, the three people blocking the door could no longer bear it. The people outside the door rushed in.

The body is still sending signals to the brain because of weakness, but Huo Chong knows that he cannot rest at this time. Since he cannot win by fists alone, he has to use weapons.

The battle was not good, and it didn't take much effort to shoot a group of fierce guys who had been a moment ago out of the door. Listening to the defeated dogs standing far away and cursing, Huo Chong closed the door and inserted it, walked back to the house and sat down.

No wonder the bandits are vulnerable to the soldiers when they encounter them most of the time. The bandits who dare to solve problems with force are still like this when facing trained officers and soldiers. A group of villagers who have not received training cannot resist Huo Chong, who has received strict training from famous teachers.

"What's going on?" Huo Chong asked.

Zhu Erniu suffered a little injury on his head, covered his head with his hands, rushed over and said in a crying voice: "Brother Huo. When you go to bed, I will take the wine out for those people to taste. Unexpectedly, they will refuse to admit it after drinking it, but instead said that I stole their old wine. I was so angry that I argued with them, so they beat me."

Speaking of this, Zhu Erniu was already crying and burst into tears.

Huo Chong now understood that the people outside were not justified. Their purpose was to get rid of Zhu Erniu's newly opened workshop. As for whether he was a stealer, the wine he made was different from Mr. Zhu's family, it was not important at all.

After understanding this, Huo Chong originally wanted to say something, but he felt that he was feeling weak again. At this time, it seemed that the most important thing was not to argue with the outsiders, nor to discuss internally.

Huo Chongming said, "Brother Zhu, move the bed to this door. I haven't had a good sleep for a few days, so let me sleep for a while. You can keep your guard first and don't let them rush in. If they rush again, you wake me up."

"This... I can't hold on without Brother Huo!" Zhu Erniu was frightened by Huo Chong's words.

"I asked you to move the bed to the door, just to get up at any time. I'm here, what are you afraid of? Hurry up!" Huo Chong didn't want to worry anymore. Seeing Zhu Erniu's cowardly, if he told him that the people outside would destroy Zhu Erniu's winemaking workshop no matter what, he would be afraid of scaring him to death.

The bed was moved, and Huo Chong asked for a quilt. It was still very cold in April, so it wouldn't work if he caught a cold due to cold.

Sitting down on the bed, Huo Chong saw the steamed wine vessel in the yard and ordered: "You move these things into the house, don't let them smash them."

Seeing that several people started moving, Huo Chong wrapped himself in a quilt and lay down. Before the group of people could finish moving, Huo Chong fell asleep again.

I didn't sleep well that night. It was okay to shout and scold outside, and there was also the noise of hitting the door. People outside even threw things into the yard. This time, Huo Chong was woken up several times until the second half of the night.

But although the people outside were making trouble, they heard Huo Chong intimidate in the yard, and they scolded him again. However, they never dared to rush into the yard.

In the second half of the night, the guys outside finally calmed down. Huo Chong was able to sleep until dawn.

Waking up from the sleep, Huo Chong felt full of energy. When he sat up, he saw that the yard was full of mud and broken bricks. These were all thrown in by the guys last night when they were tossing. Fortunately, the brewing utensils were moved into the safe house and were not damaged.

The few people in the room hid behind Huo Chong's bed and fell asleep together. Looking at the cowardly sleeping of these guys, Huo Chong couldn't help but sigh and felt very disappointed.

After thinking about it, Huo Chong felt that these brothers had really tried their best. That is, those guys outside were also slacks. If there were a few who had received training, Huo Chong would be given for nothing. If he wanted to have reliable helpers in the future, Huo Chong would have to train his own people.

If a hero fights alone, he can twist a few nails with iron all over his body.

Thinking of this, Huo Chong felt hungry. He went to the kitchen to cook some food for these guys. He was about to wake up these companions when he heard it was noisy outside.

The few people woke up, and as soon as they saw Huo Chong not on the bed, they immediately shouted in panic. Huo Chong walked out of the kitchen and smiled, "What's the hurry! I've prepared the meal, everyone will eat first. I've been busy all night, so I'm hungry."

Five hungry men ate a few bowls of pure carbohydrates, and drank two glasses of light wine in the middle. At this time, if a few sips of high-alcohol wine is obviously inappropriate, low-alcohol wine can help promote blood circulation very well. The alcohol in it is still high-energy food, which can quickly provide the energy needed for exercise.

After everyone finished eating, Huo Chong smiled and said, "Brothers, we are in trouble."

The hole in Zhu Erniu's head was not big, and it had already been scabbed at this time. He scratched the wound near the red and swollen, and asked tentatively: "Is it okay for them to compensate me, can they let go?"

Huo Chong did not directly express his prediction, but guided Zhu Erniu's thoughts, "You're not going to pay them a compensation, why?"

Zhu Erniu Tian really replied: "To keep them from making trouble."

Huo Chong shook his head, "What they thought was to smash your workshop and prevent you from making wine. Wouldn't the compensation work?"

Zhu Erniu was stunned. After a while, he replied in confusion: "Brother Huo, no, right? They are all fellow villagers, and I didn't steal their business."

"We'll go out later, and you'll ask them what they want. Just ask directly, are they going to curse and leave, or do they don't want you to make wine over the beginning? Remember not!"

Zhu Erniu looked embarrassed, but nodded.

Huo Chong told the others a few more words and led a few people to open the door and walked out. People outside were surprised to see Huo Chong coming out first and quickly retreated. Someone shouted: "We are looking for Zhu Erniu, Huo Chong, what are you doing with me!"

Hearing these guys shouted, Huo Chong patted Zhu Erniu on the shoulder. Unexpectedly, this guy took two steps forward and asked in a trembling voice: "What do you want to do?"

The guy opposite was obviously Mr. Zhu's apprentice shouted straightforwardly: "We don't want you to open a workshop!"

Zhu Erniu was stunned, and Huo Chong was also very surprised. He didn't expect that the other party would be so straightforward and explain the purpose so clearly.

Zhu Erniu panicked for a while and mustered up the courage to ask, "Why?"

"You stole our koji, isn't that enough?"

Huo Chong shouted: "If you take your wine chorus, why are the two wines different? Do you still have shame?"

I thought I could use this reason to criticize the other party, but I didn't expect that the person here would immediately shout: "Why is the taste different? Let's ask someone to taste it and see if the taste is the same."

This should have been Huo Chong's words, but Huo Chong couldn't help but feel a little scared. Unexpectedly, Zhu Erniu felt that this was an opportunity and shouted loudly: "Zhong! I'll find someone to taste it!"

Huo Chong wanted to stop him, but in the end he didn't say anything. Since Mr. Zhu was ready, at least see who he had found. Huo Chong himself had chosen the side, and the rest had to see how many people chose Mr. Zhu on both sides of Huo Chong and Mr. Zhu.

The two sides said this, and not long after, several guys that Huo Chong had seen appeared there. Either they had seen him when they learned that the eldest brother Li Xiunian had had an accident, or when his master Uncle Liu officially announced that he would hand over the seat to Huo Chong.

All of them are well-known in several nearby villages.

Uncle Zhu also appeared at this time. His apprentices moved seats for him and for several others. Several people sat there, and behind them were the people they brought.

Compared with the total of five people on Huo Chong, the number of people on the other side was ten times higher. Many people there were still holding guys in their hands, each looking at the bad face. I don’t know if they were going to come up and fight now or start fighting later.

Zhu Erniu was frightened by the huge gap again. He was a little trembling when he wanted to serve the drinks, and he stood close to Huo Chong and dared not move.

While confronting each other, I suddenly heard someone shouting from afar: "Senior Brother, something happened!"
