Daily life in Qin Dynasty

Chapter 31 Xiong Da and Xiong II

half a month later.

Xiong Da came with his younger brother Xiong Er.

After taking the two into the house, Mo Jun glanced behind them and asked, "Where are your parents?"

"My parents said they still have a few acres of land to take care of, so they won't come over."

The person who spoke was Xiong Da’s younger brother, Xiong Er. Just as Xiong Da boasted before, his younger brother did look very strong. He just turned 19 this year, and his height is estimated to be close to two meters.

Especially the skeleton is extremely thick, perhaps because of years of hunger, he doesn't seem to have much flesh on his body, but this pair of leather bags and skeletons forcibly bulges the entire coarse linen clothes.

At the moment, this can already be regarded as a 'natural appearance of a different person'.

Mo Jun nodded, and expressed his understanding of the choice of Xiong Daxiong's parents. He also knew that many elderly people are often unwilling to leave their hometown and go to so-called more prosperous places to enjoy life.

"In this case, send my regards to the second elder when you have time."

As he spoke, Mo Jun flicked his fingers, and a gold coin fell into Xiong Da's hand, and continued: "Also, keep this one."

"This······"

"Needless to say, since the two of you brothers have chosen to work for me, then naturally I can't treat you badly."

Xiong Da took the gold coin, he was taken aback for a moment, and was about to say something.But before he could speak, he was directly interrupted by Mo Jun.

This can be regarded as one of Mo Jun's principles.

Since you want others to work for you, then naturally you have to pay enough.

After all, only by eating meat can you become a wolf, and if you keep feeding shit, no matter how many people you have, they are just a pack of dogs.

"Yes, Xiong Da, thank you Doctor Mo."

After seeing Mo Jun's determination, Xiong Da was no longer polite, but bowed down in a dignified manner like others, and changed his words decisively.

And Xiong Er at the side saw his elder brother's appearance, and bowed in a similar manner.

Until today.

The brothers Xiong Da and Xiong Er are officially under Mo Jun's command.

"Okay, no need to pray, I don't have so many rules here."

After finishing the ceremony, Mr. Mo couldn't hold back any longer. He was indeed a little too vulgar. This kind of airs and prestige was too tiring to do, and it didn't suit his personality at all.

"Today is just in time for you to come, and I'm just about to go on a long trip, so you two can come with me!"

"Yes, then I'm going to prepare the carriage..."

"Don't worry, you have come all the way here, it's time to clean up the dust, I've already arranged it, it won't be a while."

Mo Jun waved his hand to interrupt Xiong Da's movement again, and spoke slowly.

Although Mo Jun's previous habits and instincts hidden deep in his body made him unable to fully adapt to this era for a while, but facing the change of identities between the two parties, Xiong Da responded far more naturally than Mo Jun.

As I said before, it is never a shame to bow down to others in this era, but to be recognized by others is regarded as a kind of 'glory'.

For example, the current Xiong Da seems to be very immersed in this kind of game of "nobility and disciples".

until······
The moment the meal is served.

In order to clean up the dust for the two of them, Mo Jun specially asked someone to buy a whole lamb for barbecue this time, and specially prepared pepper and refined salt to eat with it.

Pepper is native to Southeast Asia, but it was not introduced to the Central Plains at this time.

However, last time Mo Jun accidentally discovered this seasoning in the medicine garden of Master Yaogui, one can imagine his surprise at that time.

For this reason, in the past half a month, Mo Jun spent a lot of money to forcefully ripen more than a dozen pepper seeds with high-concentration "growth spirit liquid", and only then did he get these pepper powders.

In addition, there are star anise, pepper, grapes, lychees, etc. These crops are native to the north and south of the country. They were all used as medicinal materials by Master Yaogui before, and they were collected and planted in the medicine garden for research.

As for refined salt, Mo Jun refines it himself, but it is also sold outside, but the price is at least ten times more expensive than coarse salt.

Such a banquet is undoubtedly a super meal at the moment.

When a whole roasted lamb was served, just looking at it was enough to make the mouth water three thousand feet. After the aroma dissipated, Xiong Da and Xiong Er, who hadn't eaten for a day, suddenly let out a stomach growl. up.

Old Xiong blushed.

Mo Jun laughed and said, "Okay, you don't have to be polite, just eat it!"

Hearing this, Xiong Da seemed to be prepared to hold back a bit, imitating the experience he heard from the village head, and planned to make a gesture, but before he could speak, he saw Xiong Er on the side rushing to the dining table like a hungry tiger.

"Thank you...Damn it, Xiong Er, you idiot, save some for me."

Seeing that Xiong Er had already eaten half a leg of lamb in an instant, Xiong Da couldn't hold back any longer and rushed over quickly.

"Well, it smells so good!"

"What kind of taste is this, I've never tasted it before."

"Oh? Brother, when have you eaten roasted whole lamb? Why don't I know."

"...Shut up, you idiot."

Seeing the pair of brothers scrambling for food, the originally lifeless mansion suddenly became full of life.

Mo Jun smiled and said: "Is that right? I have nothing to pretend to be with me. I don't have so many weird rules here. If you have anything to do in the future, just call me the boss. We are all ordinary people, don't mess with it." So elegant."

Xiong Da blushed, and then gradually returned to his previous appearance, saying: "Understood, boss!"

Xiong Er ate very fast, but Mo Jun didn't care at first, after all, it's normal for a 'natural alien' like him to be able to eat.

However, when Xiong Er didn't stop at all and ate the whole sheep in a blink of an eye, even Mo Jun couldn't help but twitch his eyelids a few times.

Good guy.

If things go on like this, I won't be left poor by this guy!
After Mo Jun practiced martial arts, his appetite has also increased a lot, but compared with Xiong Er, it is obviously still insignificant.

Sheep are generally thinner these days. The sheep he bought are only considered fat. They weigh about 80 kilograms, and they can have [-] to [-] kilograms of pure meat after removing the bones.

Xiong Da eats the least amount of food, and he is full after eating less than a catty of meat.

Mo Jun's martial arts practice consumes a lot, and he can weigh seven or eight catties after eating.

In other words, the rest of the meat, which could weigh at least thirty catties, was all rounded up by Xiong Er alone.

"Hiccup~"

After he was full, Xiong Er patted his stomach and burped contentedly. Then he suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly scratched his hair with his oily hands, and said to Mo Jun with some embarrassment:

"That... I have a relatively large appetite, but don't worry, I can work even if I am not full in normal times. I have great strength."

"It's okay, just eat as much as you want, I have plenty of food here!" Mo Jun said with a smile.

"Hehe~~"

When Xiong Er heard the words, he immediately grinned innocently and said, "What my parents said is absolutely right, I can really have a full meal following you."

Xiong Er's character is a little straightforward, but Mo Jun quite likes getting along with him, and said: "Why, have you never had a full meal before?"

"His appetite is too large, and the few acres of land at home can't support him."

This sentence was not spoken by Xiong Er, but Xiong Da who was on the side answered him on his behalf. When he said this sentence, Xiong Da's tone was somewhat helpless, but he was more ashamed.

After all, the eldest brother is like a father now, but as the eldest brother, he can't even bring his younger brother a full meal. This is indeed not a happy thing.

Mo Jun heard the words, but smiled sassyly, and said: "Hahaha~~ It's okay, I will hang out with me in the future, I dare not say anything else, but a full meal is still not a problem."
