MTL - Cosma Empire-Chapter 6 Please don't be funny at such a solemn moment
The first time is always so unforgettable.
Dulin once thought that the place where he lived in the country should be the worst and worst place in his life. The feeling of the six brothers crowding together can definitely make people fascinating. Every day except work, it is work, often tired enough to fall asleep directly in bed. In the bedroom that has not been cleaned, there is a faint foot odor and sweat odor from 365 days a year, and the sisters and sisters would not want to come in again after coming once.
But in this room of only thirty square meters, twenty people were crowded! Not to mention sweat odor and foot odor, there is also a kind of indescribable smell, but it exudes a strong flavor that can cause hormone changes in the human body. The yellowed and black walls are covered with posters of women's red fruits. These posters are always covered with various yellowed watermarks.
The toilet is just outside the bedroom door. The suffocating urine smell and the smell of a rural fertilizer pit rising from the sewer always fill the entire bedroom between the door opening and closing.
I lay on a bed that felt wet, with a thin layer of putty in my hand, and a smell of stench. Du Lin rolled up and wanted to be frozen, and he didn't want to cover the bed's apparently bad quilt.
This special and sleepy, and in the middle of the night he seemed to be no longer afraid of warmth, and went back home to lie on his bed.
When he got up the next day, he realized where the warmth came from-the black quilt had been covered by him. After losing his subjective thought, the subconscious mind of the creature can always find more for the creatures. The right thing to protect yourself from injury, low temperature injury.
He pushed the quilt away disgustingly. There was no room for grooming. A group of people crowded together and walked towards the station platform. The first cargo in the morning began.
The things that I carry are not much different from yesterday, and they are very familiar. Inside the wooden stand is a tightly packed box. When you walk and shake, you can vaguely feel the shaking liquid inside, and occasionally there is the sound of glass collision.
"What's in it?" Du Lin held Graf's arm and asked, "It seems to be all water."
"Water?" Graff glanced durin scornfully. "Do you understand all the banknotes? Banknotes!" After a while, he whispered: "Don't talk everywhere, it's all high inside. liqueur."
Du Lin froze for a moment. When he was about to question, Graf glared at him and swallowed back what he wanted to say.
There are some legal provisions in the empire's law regarding the brewing, transportation and sales of alcoholic beverages. Among them, there are express provisions that strictly produce high-quality alcoholic beverages anywhere. According to the law, the alcohol content of all food and beverage drinks cannot exceed 9%, and the alcohol content of wine cannot exceed 13%. Beyond that, even if the contraband is to be destroyed, the brewing manufacturers also need to be punished.
The reason why there is such a law is that it is said that in the Theocracy Law, all alcoholic beverages are considered to be full of devil, so priests and believers are prohibited from drinking. In the beginning, the Empire did not recognize the interpretation of alcoholic beverages in the Theocracy Law. Later, the third emperor of the Empire died of alcohol after drinking too much alcohol and died soon afterwards. This law was passed.
高度 Since then, Alcohol has become a contraband.
I want to ask what is the fastest and most profitable business in the world, and you can understand it by looking at legal books. Empire officially banned the sale of Gao Jiu, but made Gao Jiu a best-selling product. Coupled with the post-war change society is still in a state of depression, more people need to be able to anesthetize their own things as soon as possible, of which high alcohol is a good choice.
The production and sale of high-alcohol noodles on Tongming is prohibited, but in order to satisfy the banknotes, many places are sold and sold in half-light and dark, and even transported by steam locomotives! The goods that are on the road every night are almost all high-grade wines. These wines are sold nationwide by steam locomotives and railways for sale and earn huge profits.
There is a phrase people wrote in the workshop, "The closer you are to the devil, the more your pockets are." It is about the profit brought by high alcohol.
Before dawn, Du Lin was moving the cargo while thinking about high alcohol. From the world in his dream, he learned that alcohol can be obtained by distillation of high-purity alcohol, and then blended with spices and a certain proportion of water, it became highly spirited. He didn't know what it was like to drink something called liquor, but he could guess the taste of those things from other people's faces.
他 He was absent-minded at work this morning.
When it was time for lunch, he pulled Graf to the railroad outside the restaurant, looked around, and asked, "Graff, we are brothers, right?"
Graff patted his chest, "Of course, brother!"
"Very good, brother, can you tell me how much wine is worth? I mean a bottle, like those bottles in the box we moved in the morning." Du Lin stroked, he needed to have By comparison, you can know if you will make money by doing so.
Graff looks big and a bit stupid-no smart person would put a little pepper noodles in the cigarette, but he did it.
But he was definitely much smarter than he showed. When Du Lin asked this question, he immediately became alert, "how? Do you want to buy a bottle? Listen to me, a rookie like you for a month Income, you can buy at most a bottle. "
"So expensive?" Du Lin took a sigh of relief, knowing that he can earn at least five yuan this month, which means that a bottle of wine is equal to his monthly income? The flame that had been extinguished in his heart was ignited again, and his body trembled slightly as a result. Damn it, **** it! I am tired every day like an old dog who can only pay for a bottle of wine? Damn it!
Looking at Du Lin's crazy look, Graff pulled him hard. "What's wrong with you?"
Du Lin was surprised. After all, he was only a sixteen-year-old boy. Even if he dreamed of a big man's life while dreaming, he still couldn't hide his heart. He tried hard to tighten the muscles on his face, and finally laughed, "I'm fine, rest assured, I have never felt as good as I am now!"
"Yes, can you tell me how much a bottle of low-alcohol is?"
Graf looked around, pulling Doolin farther, and squatting in the grass with him, "Damn, I'm sure you know what you can do to get money, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Are you planning to sell it with high alcohol blending water? Don't think about this stupid method, you will lose money. A bottle of low-alcohol wine only costs 60 to 90, and a better wine is only 80 to 90 If you use high alcohol for water, you will definitely lose money. "
Dulin looked at Graff, his expression was strange, changed and changed. It took a while before he breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Can I trust you?"
Graff took out a knife that was more than ten centimeters from the lower back, and the scared Doolin almost ran away. He squeezed the edge of the knife into the palm of his hand, held it firmly, and then pulled the knife out. . The blood swelled out of his hand like a water pump in an instant, but there was no discoloration on his face. Then, he grabbed Dulin's hand tightly, and then opened a mouth in his palm, "Are you a Guart?"
Dulin nodded. He is a Guarth, who accounts for almost 15% of the total population in the entire empire, at least the official statistics report of the empire says so.
"Then your father must not have told you about our Guart tradition, when we hold blood in our hands, it is the most solemn moment in our lives!", Saying that his hand with his palm cut off and Du Lin Zhang ’s cut hands held together severely, "This is a ritual for our guarts. Whether it is allegiance or friendship, it will be blessed and supervised by everyone and the gods!"
"Now you can believe me. If I betray you one day, I will be punished by the gods, and you too!"
Dulin looked at the two clasped hands for a long time and didn't speak, Graf anxiously, touched him, "What are you thinking about?"
"I ...", Du Lin had some grievances on his face, "I have a numb hand, will I die? So much blood shed !!!"
