Invincible Three Kingdoms System

Chapter 12 Moving the Pulley

"Old Ge, is there any butcher who sells meat in Yi County?" Zhao Qian asked.

Old man Ge frowned and thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "There used to be a butcher in Yi County, but a month ago, the whole family moved away. Now if you want to buy meat, you have to go to Zhuo County in Youzhou."

"Youzhou?" Zhao Qian frowned.

Old man Ge saw it, and said quickly: "Although it is in Youzhou, it is not far from our Yi County, and it takes less than half a day to get there."

Zhao Qian nodded and said, "That's great, everyone have a good rest today, and tomorrow morning, let's go to Zhuo County to buy pork!"

After hearing Zhao Qian's words, the tenant farmers were very excited. They have lived for so many years, and most of them have only seen pigs running, but have never tasted pork. Even the old man Ge would smack his lips there.

After comforting the tenant who was injured in the fight just now, Zhao Qian gave old man Ge some money and asked him to go to the county to find a doctor to treat the injured tenant.

Nothing to do, Zhao Qian asked the tenant farmers not to relax their training at night, and found a person who performed well to be their captain, and then Zhao Qian left the tenant farm.

After a night of nothing to say, he came to the tenant village early the next morning, found two tenant farmers as followers, pulled a small cart, and rushed to Zhuo County to buy meat.

The two entourage tenant farmers, one named Wang Shan and the other named Zhang Li, seemed very excited after being selected by Zhao Qian.

The reason why Zhao Qian went there in person was not that he could not trust them, and was afraid that they would lose his money, but he felt that he should walk around more when he came to this world. Besides, Zhao Qian always felt that Zhuo County seemed to be somewhere heard.

Along the way, Zhao Qian was thinking about his own affairs. Seeing that Zhao Qian was silent, Wang Shan and Zhang Li didn't dare to disturb him, but just pushed the cart silently on their way.

Finally, the three arrived at Zhuo County before noon.

As soon as he entered the county gate, Zhao Qian clearly felt that Zhuo County was obviously better than Yi County, which can be easily seen from the clothes and mental outlook of the people on the street.

The reputation of Butcher Zhang in Zhuoxian County is too loud. After a little inquiring, you will know where the place is.

However, when he heard the words Zhang Tuhu, Zhao Qian's heart trembled unconsciously.Zhuo County?Butcher Zhang?It can't be such a coincidence, can it?

With doubts, Zhao Qian hurried to Zhang Butcher.

When they came to butcher Zhang's meat pole, a servant told Zhao Qian that his master had just gone to the village to transport wine. It turned out that this butcher not only killed pigs and sold meat, but also brewed good wine.

Zhao Qian urgently needs to know the name of the butcher, but he also understands that the servant cannot mention the name of the master casually, so he has to wait patiently for the butcher to come back.

However, Wang Shan and Zhang Li couldn't wait any longer. Wang Shan shouted to the servant: "Your master is not here, won't you sell us the meat?"

The servant bowed, and hurriedly smiled and said, "I really want to buy it, but the master is not here, so I can't sell it to you."

"Oh, so you can't be the master of this business." Zhang Li suddenly said.

The servant hurriedly waved his hand and said: "Although this meat stall belongs to the master's family, the master has always been nice to wait with me. He has always entrusted us to do the business."

"Then why can't you sell it to us?" Wang Shan questioned.

"Follow me, you'll know at a glance." The servant shrugged and led Zhao Qian and the others to the back of the meat stand.

It turned out that there was a well above the meat stall, and a huge round boulder was placed on it. Zhao Qian took a closer look and found that the boulder was more than one and a half meters in diameter and half a meter thick. It might weigh several hundred catties.

"You see, the pork is in this well. Only the master can remove the boulder. I really can't help it." The servant said helplessly.

Wang Shan glanced at Zhang Li and said to him, "Let's try it together?"

Zhang Li nodded, and the two walked to both sides of the boulder, spit on their hands, and then tried hard together to move the boulder away.

However, after a while, the faces of both of them were flushed, and the boulder remained motionless until they were so tired that they sat on the ground out of breath.

"Haha, don't bother, only my master can move this stone." The servant said proudly, "Otherwise, my master would not let go of his words. As long as he can move the boulder, he can take any meat from the well."

Zhao Qian raised his eyebrows. After hearing what the servant said, he has basically confirmed the identity of Butcher Zhang. This scene is so familiar.

"Let me try." Zhao Qian said suddenly.

The servant knew that Zhao Qian's status must be more noble than those two before him, so he looked him up and down, and said, "Master, these two big brothers can't move an inch, so I don't think you need to bother?"

Zhao Qian smiled slightly, ignoring the servants. His force value is greater than Wang Shan and Zhang Li combined, so he may not be unable to succeed.

Zhao Qian walked to the edge of the boulder, and after turning around it, he found a better leverage point, took a deep breath, wrapped his hands around the boulder, and moved it vigorously.

The servant kept shaking his head beside him, as if he didn't believe that Zhao Qian, a clean-looking young man, could move the boulder.

"It's moving, it's moving!" Wang Shan suddenly pointed at the boulder and shouted.

Zhang Li also looked intently, and saw that there was a gap between the boulder and the mouth of the well, and Zhao Qian actually moved the boulder!

The servants at the side also saw it, and opened their mouths in surprise.

However, only Zhao Qian knew that he could do this at most. Finally, his strength couldn't hold on, and the boulder fell on the mouth of the well again.

Zhao Qian shook his head. He really couldn't imagine how much strength the person who can move this boulder would have to have!

"How is it? Is there any other way?" the servant said.

Zhao Qian looked at the servant and said with a smile: "I have a way to remove this boulder. Does your master keep his word?"

The servant was stunned, and said: "Naturally, my master has always said one thing, but only you can do it."

"Don't worry, my strength alone is enough." Zhao Qian smiled, then turned to Wang Shan and Zhang Li and said, "Go and find me some wooden sticks as thick as arms and some ropes."

"I have this here." The servant said hurriedly, he wanted to see what tricks this young master could play.

Taking the rope, Zhao Qian first made a bracket and put a wooden stick on the bracket.

Afterwards, Zhao Qian tied a knot on the wooden stick with a rope, passed around another wooden stick, and then looped back from the wooden stick on the bracket.

In this way, Zhao Qian tied it twice, and hung another wooden stick under the one on the bracket.

Then, Zhao Qian wrapped the boulder tightly with a rope, and finally tied it to the hanging wooden stick. After finishing all this, Zhao Qian nodded in satisfaction.

Wang Shan was a little confused, so he leaned forward to look again and again, and finally he could only ask: "Master, what did you do?"

Zhao Qian nodded slightly, and replied: "This thing is called a moving pulley!"
