Chapter 106 Yi Xiaochuan said that he would probably die here
slowly.
Yi Xiaochuan realized that he could no longer sit and wait for death in Tuan's cell.
He must try to escape from here.
Otherwise, he would most likely die here, and there wouldn't even be anyone to collect his body.
He knocked hard on the cell door,
However, he kept knocking until his hands were sore, but he still didn't get any response.
The general Jin who tortured him just now left, and the guard outside the cell ignored him no matter what he shouted.
"This"
Yi Xiaochuan scratched his head, and for a moment, he didn't know what to do.
These Tuan people are not easy to deal with either.
What should he do if that hateful General Jin comes to torture him again?
His physical condition is no longer what it used to be, and he can no longer endure any hardships!
In a tent on the construction site of the Great Wall, Vice General Pang was pacing back and forth,
to him,
It is no small matter for a corvee to run away.
If discovered by his superiors, he would be punished.
To put it simply, a corvee can die, but he can never escape.
Once a corvee escapes, he must be chased back.
When he first discovered that Yi Xiaochuan had escaped, he immediately chased him out, but unfortunately, he was not found.
In the past day or two, Vice General Pang has been sending his men to look for Yi Xiaochuan.
Just when he was worried, his subordinates came in and reported respectfully: "General, my subordinates probably know the whereabouts of Yi Xiaochuan."
"Say it."
Upon hearing this, Vice General Pang immediately asked.
"General, it seems that Yi Xiaochuan escaped to Tu'an Country and was captured in the palace."
"I also heard from a Tu'an citizen who happened to witness the whole process of Yi Xiaochuan's arrest. Because Yi Xiaochuan was wearing Central Plains clothes and acting strangely, he was regarded as a spy."
This subordinate told Vice General Pang everything he had found out.
"Well, I see, you go down first."
Vice General Pang nodded,
Subsequently,
He took out a piece of cloth and started writing, He was going to write a letter to the king and queen of Tu'an, asking them to send Yi Xiaochuan to the construction site of the Great Wall here.
Soon, Vice General Pang had written the letter and sent his men to deliver it.
This day, at noon, It is the hottest season in Xianyang city.
In the restaurant opened by Zhao Che,
It was still a bustling and packed scene.
However, what is different from before is that there are no longer long queues outside the restaurant as before.
In the past two days, Zhao Che's restaurant has officially added "takeout". Therefore, the more prominent people in Xianyang City are more willing to order takeout from Zhao Che's restaurant and have it delivered to their homes.
Other than that,
Another difference from before is that the menu in the restaurant has been expanded.
Every wine, drink or soup has an iced option.
Guests can choose to have it iced or not.
However, if you choose iced ones, you need to add 20 Qin Banliang to the original price.
Because of the hot weather, all guests who come here will basically order a glass of ice-cold wine.
Naturally, the restaurant's revenue today is also rising sharply compared to before.
"Sir, you are really good at strategizing,"
“We have added takeaways and a variety of chilled drinks.”
"I didn't expect that he would be so successful when he started business for the first time."
"I, Gao Yao, have finally lived a good life and don't need to be bullied anymore!"
Gao Yao was cooking in the kitchen and talking to had a smile on his face.
After following Zhao Che, his previous dream came true.
Every time he thought of this, Gao Yao would be extremely grateful to Zhao Che.
Zhang Han, the commander of the Shadow Secret Guard, also came to the restaurant.
Today he is acting as the "delivery man" for the First Emperor Ying Zheng. In Zhang Han's hand, he still held the list of meals and drinks that the First Emperor Ying Zheng had given him in advance.
Takeaways cannot be delivered to the palace. Therefore, Ying Zheng handed over this task to Zhang Han. After Zhang Han got the takeaway from Zhao Che's restaurant, he brought it to the palace and handed it over to Ying Zheng.
"Staff, please prepare it for me according to this list."
So, while Zhang Han was talking, he handed the long menu to the waiter.
"By the way, Sir, our restaurant has added iced drinks today. Do you want two glasses? Iced drinks are 20 yuan more expensive than ordinary drinks."
The waiter asked politely,
"Chilled drinks?"
"Why do you have so many luxury items like ice in your restaurant?"
"In that case, give me three more cold beers."
After hearing this introduction, Zhang Han had a look of confusion on his face.
You must know that ice is one of the most luxurious things in this season.
Zhang Han ordered three more drinks, two for the First Emperor Ying Zheng and one for himself.
In the summer, if you can have a glass of cold beer, it will be refreshing just thinking about it.
"Okay, sir, please wait a moment. I'll be ready soon."
After hearing what Zhang Han said, the waiter nodded and responded enthusiastically.
Subsequently,
Zhang Han looked at this restaurant and always felt that this place was unusual.
The most curious question in his mind is who is the boss behind the restaurant? His strength is so profound, and His Majesty even favors him.
Less than a quarter of an hour later,
Zhang Han got the takeaway ordered by First Emperor Ying Zheng and walked quickly towards the palace.
Not long after, Zhang Han came to Zhangtai Palace and saw the First Emperor Ying Zheng who was crouching in front of the table handling the memorial.
So, Zhang Han respectfully saluted and said: "Your Majesty, I have brought back the takeaway you ordered. However, when I was at the restaurant, I found that the menu of the restaurant has added a variety of ice-cold drinks. Therefore, I I ordered two more cold beers for you.”
"Cai! Zhang Aiqing, please put the takeout on the table."
After hearing what Zhang Han said, the eyes of the First Emperor Ying Zheng immediately lit up.
Afterwards, the waiters on the side put out the food and drinks.
The First Emperor Ying Zheng began to enjoy it impatiently.
In the hot summer, I feel thirsty. He took a sip of the cold beer first, Sure enough, it’s very refreshing and thirst-quenching.
This thing seems to have some magic power. After drinking it, it can wash away the fatigue from the whole body.
After drinking it, I felt very satisfied and had endless aftertaste.
Afterwards, the First Emperor Ying Zheng began to eat hot dishes again,
At the same time, he asked Zhang Han: "Zhang Han, you just said that every kind of drink in the restaurant has the option of refrigeration. This also means that a lot of ice cubes are needed. Have you ever asked, so many ice cubes?" , where did it come from?”
Yes,
This made the First Emperor Ying Zheng extremely curious.
You know, it's summer right now,
Even the ice used in the palace was stored in the ice cellar last winter.
The cost of storing ice is not low.
Also, there isn’t much storage ice available.
That Zhao Che is from Peixian County, Last winter, he was not in Xianyang City, and ice could not be transported for a long time.
So, in other words, the ice cubes used in Zhao Che's restaurant may not be the ice cubes stored last winter? If it's not stored ice, where did it come from?It's summer now.
a time.
The originally majestic face of First Emperor Ying Zheng was now filled with countless question marks.
He was puzzled by this.
