The Age of Awakening: From the Young Runtu

Chapter 148 Destruction

The master chef will add ginseng and other precious medicinal materials and spices to make a unique secret recipe. The real rich people buy it from him, and the price is much higher.

Before the official smoking, but also to burn the bubbles.

The technique is superb.

There will be quite a few to watch.

The onlookers will shake their heads and taste it, and can't stop applauding.

There is a boss Wu in Jiaxing.

When people are farming, he grows opium, and when they grow opium, he opens a tobacco shop.

Very business minded, made a lot of money.

There are many people who are jealous of him getting rich, waiting behind his back to plot against him.

Because of this, Boss Wu also hired a lot of thugs.

There are two things I am most afraid of in the opium business. One is that I smoke it myself, and the other is that I don’t understand the goods and spend a lot of money to buy defective products.

Boss Wu abides by this rule.

He is also like Juntu. Those who belong to him must not touch the dirt, but sell it.

He also knew it was wrong.

But they can do anything for profit.

I also cheered myself up, just like Andy Lau's movie disciples.

"Why do people smoke? It's because of emptiness. The emptiness is scary, and the smoke is scary."

"Business is about supply and demand. They buy and we sell. Did I ask them to smoke? I didn't, I didn't. They smoked it themselves, and I didn't force them. It's not me at all, it's them. I forced them. Is it? I don't at all."

Basically, I will use this paragraph of thought to clean up my responsibilities.

Runtu: "Lao Qi, take a hundred cavalry and set off with me."

Seeing this situation, Gui Laoqi thought that his lord was going to kill again?

Immediately ordered a hundred cavalry to come.

It looks like a strong soldier.

Take people to the place.

This is a land of smoke.

There are hundreds of acres.

It's somewhat of a scale.

Runtu immediately ordered, "The horse stepped on the smoke land and destroyed it all."

A hundred horses galloped across the smoke land.

Although there are one hundred acres, there are many people in Runtu.

Runtu went out in person.

With space, the speed of destruction is faster.

There is a lot of smoky soil that has matured.

Fortunately, I came early.

Otherwise, it goes to the market again.

Such a large volume.

Destroy a batch, collect another batch, transport it to the city and destroy it.

Try not to use fire.

It's okay to burn completely.

If it is not completely burned, it will produce smoke.

It's better not to use soil now.

All the plants in this batch were destroyed.

It is estimated that the price of cigarettes around will skyrocket.

In a piece of land close to the county seat, a huge pit was built.

The one-hundred-acre goods are made in several batches and put in in turn.

Did not come to the city to destroy.

I'm afraid that if something happens.

Just outside the city gate, a little farther away.

Many people came to watch.

Many people support it.

The trade of opium and soil has never stopped. The imperial court ordered the banning of opium and soil more than once, but it was ineffective, mainly because the merchants had known the rules for a long time.As the saying goes: money can make ghosts turn the millstone. They think that as long as they send a box of silver to the government, any imperial ban will become empty talk.

I didn't expect that Runtu would do such a thing just after taking office.

Many merchants have not sent money yet.

For such a large batch of goods, Boss Wu went to find Runtu, "My lord, I am doing small business, you take the 5000 taels of bank notes, and give me the rest. "

There are many mature ones.

It can be used, but the quality will be poor.

But it can also make money.

If you don't get it back, you will lose all this year.

How is his business going?

Runtu directly rejected him.

"Old Seven, put this person in prison."

He was dumbfounded, he didn't expect Runtu to be so strong.

The most time-saving and labor-saving method is to use fire.But although fire is simple, it cannot eliminate the smoke without a trace, let alone hundreds of acres of smoke.You know, once the opium smoke is not burned out, it will turn into dross and blend with the soil. At that time, the opium dealers will bring tools, dig three feet into the ground, dig out the soil and process it, so that they can extract ten Two-thirds of the opium, which is much more cost-effective than buying it yourself.

The method used by Runtu is the method used by Mr. Lin in Humen back then, which means the same method but the same effect.

soaking method.

Water plus quicklime.

Soak the smoke in water and lime water.

Dig two pools, then surround the pools with solid stakes, and cover the bottom of the pools with thick stone tiles.After the pool is formed, the water is then introduced into the pool with a large amount of kosher salt added.After mixing, a concentrated brine is formed.Finally, the smoked soil is soaked in brine for half a day, then put into lime water and stirred.After a while, the smoke soil reacted with the lime water, the pool water boiled, and the smoke soil dissolved.

"Old Qi, all the Wu family's smoking dens are closed."

The efficiency of the new army is still relatively fast.

The smoker was comfortable in the den, Lao Qi broke in with people, and took them all away without any explanation.

"Come on! Something happened!"

"My lords, if you have something to say, what crime have we committed?"

"Following the order of your lord, come here to stop smoking."

People here are dumbfounded.

The so-called ban on smoking is just a casual appearance, and the smoking hall will still open after a little money, but now this posture, is it true?Why is there nothing wrong with other smokehouses?

Boss Wu's wife tried to entrust some relatives and friends, but these people either said there was nothing to do, or they asked for money and said they were going to do something, but they didn't actually do anything.

For several days, Boss Wu never heard from him, no one was seen alive, no corpse was seen dead.

Runtu is different, he won't let people go.

Within a few days, news came that Boss Wu would be shot to death in public in ten days.

Hundreds of acres have been planted, which is considered light.

Since the first smoke-earth war, smoke has flooded the land of China.

Various places use tobacco to make money and maintain military expenditures.

People everywhere are encouraged to grow opium on a large scale.

The planting area of ​​opium tobacco in the country accounts for several points of the cultivated land area, and it is increasing year by year.

Under the erosion of the opium, people's bodies and spirits were double devastated, the nationals became indifferent and sunk, and the nation lost hope.

But I really didn't expect Runtu to be so ruthless.

First of all, I found the largest tobacco dealer.Move too fast.

Boss Wu's thugs didn't move at all, so they were beaten by Runtu.

Since then, other tobacco dealers have been trembling.

I'm afraid that sometime Runtu will do something like this to them.

I really want to come.

Runtu doesn't want smoke in his own land.

He called Gui Lao Qi over again.

"Lao Qi, have you finished the investigation? All tobacco and soil merchants in the county have been seized."

"My lord, this task is a bit heavy."

It's okay if it's just one family, there are many families.

And there are thugs in many places.

"My lord, I am afraid that I will be hindered by then."

"Those who dare to resist will be killed. If there are brothers who are wounded or killed in battle, a regulation should be drawn up for compensation and so on."

A new army of 3000 people.

It shouldn't be a problem to deal with some smoke houses.

Runtu started from the smokehouse first.
