Daily Life In Qin Dynasty

Chapter 31 Xiong Da and Xiong Er

Half a month later.

Xiong Da came, taking his younger brother Xiong Er with him.

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

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

The speaker was Xiong Da's younger brother, Xiong Er. Just as Xiong Da had boasted before, his brother indeed looked very strong. He had just turned nineteen this year and was estimated to be close to two meters tall.

In particular, his frame is extremely strong. Perhaps because of year-round hunger, he doesn't seem to have much flesh on his body, but this leather frame alone is so strong that the entire coarse linen clothes are bulging.

At the moment, this can already be regarded as a ‘naturally 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 reluctant to leave their hometown and go to so-called more prosperous places to enjoy life.

"In that case, if you have time, say hello to the second elder for me."

As he spoke, Mr. Mo flicked his finger, and a gold coin fell into Xiong Da's hand, and then said: "Also, keep this."

"this······"

"Needless to say, since you two brothers have chosen to serve me, I cannot treat you badly."

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

This is also one of Mo Jun's principles.

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

After all, only by eating meat can you turn into a wolf, and if you keep feeding shit, no matter how many people you have, you will be nothing more than a group of dogs.

"Yes, Xiong Dadu thanks Doctor Mo."

After seeing Mr. Mo's determination, Xiong Da was no longer polite. Instead, he imitated others and bowed down in a decent manner, and decisively changed his tune.

When Xiong Er on the side saw his eldest brother's appearance, he also followed suit and bowed.

Until today.

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

"Okay, no need to bow, I don't have that many rules here."

After completing the ritual process, Mr. Mo couldn't hold back any longer. He was indeed a bit too vulgar. This kind of pretentious thing was too tiring to do and was not in line with his character at all.

"You came just in time today. I'm just about to go on a long trip. You two, please come with me!"

"Yes, then I will prepare the carriage..."

"Don't worry, you have come all the way here, you should catch up and wash away the dust. I have already arranged it, and it won't take more than a minute and a half."

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

Although some of Mo Jun's previous habits and instincts hidden deep in his body prevented him from fully adapting to this era for a while, Xiong Da dealt with the change in the identities of both parties much more naturally than Mo Jun.

As mentioned before, in this era, it is never a shame to surrender to others. Instead, being recognized by others is regarded as an 'honor'.

For example, Xiong Da now seems to be very immersed in this game of "nobles and retainers".

until······

The moment the meal is served.

In order to cleanse the two of them from the dust, Mo Jun specially bought a whole sheep for barbecue this time, and also specially prepared pepper and refined salt to eat together.

Pepper is native to Southeast Asia and had not been introduced to the Central Plains at this time.

However, last time Mr. Mo was in Master Yaogui's medicine garden, he unexpectedly discovered this seasoning. You can imagine his surprise at that time.

For this reason, in the past half month, Mo Jun spent a lot of money to forcefully ripen more than a dozen pepper seeds with a high concentration of "Growth Spirit Liquid", and then he got these pepper powders.

In addition, there are star anise, pepper, grapes, lychees, etc. These crops originate from all over the world. They were previously used as medicinal materials by the medicine ghost masters and were collected and planted in medicine gardens for research.

As for refined salt, Mo Jun mainly 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 people's mouth water three thousand feet down. After the aroma dissipated, Xiong Da and Xiong Er, who had not eaten for a day, suddenly growled with dissatisfaction. got up.

Old Xiong blushed.

Mo Jun laughed and said: "Okay, you're welcome, just eat it!"

Hearing this, Xiong Da seemed to be prepared to be reserved. He learned from the experience he heard from the village chief and planned to make a gesture. However, before he could speak, he saw Xiong Er rushing to the dining table like a hungry tiger rushing for food.

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

Seeing that Xiong Er had half of the mutton leg down in the blink of an eye, Xiong Da could no longer hold back and quickly pounced on it.

"Mmm, it smells so good!"

"What does this taste like? I've never tasted it before."

"Huh? Brother, since when have you ever eaten roasted whole lamb? Why didn't I know?"

"...Shut up, you idiot."

Seeing the two brothers fighting for food, the originally lifeless mansion suddenly became full of life.

Mo Jun smiled and said: "Is this right? What else can you pretend to do with me? I don't have so many weird rules here. If you have anything to do in the future, just call me boss. We are all common people. Don't do it. Be so elegant."

Xiong Da's face turned red, and then gradually returned to his previous appearance, saying: "I know, boss!"

Xiong Er ate very quickly, but Mo Jun didn't care at first. After all, it was normal for a 'born stranger' like him 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 this continues, I won't be destitute by this guy!

After Mr. Mo started practicing martial arts, his appetite increased a lot, but compared with Xiong Er, it was obviously still insignificant.

Today's sheep are generally thin. The sheep he bought is considered fat, weighing about eighty pounds. If the bones are removed, it can weigh forty or fifty pounds of pure meat.

Xiong Da has the smallest appetite. He only eats less than a pound of meat before he is full.

Mo Jun's martial arts training consumes a lot of money, and he can weigh seven or eight pounds after eating it.

In other words, there was at least thirty kilograms of meat left, all of which was wrapped up by Xiong Er alone.

"Hiccup~"

After eating, Xiong Er patted his belly and burped with satisfaction. Then he suddenly remembered something, hurriedly scratched his hair with a pair of oily hands, and said to Mr. Mo with some embarrassment:

"Um... I have a big appetite, but don't worry, I can still work even if I don't eat enough. I'm very strong."

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

"Hehe~~"

Hearing this, Xiong Er immediately grinned and said, "What my parents said is absolutely right. I can definitely have enough to eat by following you."

Xiong Er's character is a bit straightforward, but Mo Jun likes to get along with him. He said, "Why, have you never had a full meal before?"

"His appetite is so big that the few acres of land at home cannot support him."

This sentence was not said by Xiong Er, but answered by Xiong Da on his behalf. When he said this, Xiong Da's tone was a little helpless, but more importantly, he was ashamed.

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

When Mr. Mo heard this, he smiled brightly and said: "Hahaha~~ It's okay. I'll hang out with me from now on. I don't dare to say anything else, but having a full meal won't be a problem."
