Give Me the Name of God

Chapter 42



Manda doesn\'t need to do his best to deal with the three blind ducks, but his mood is a little out of control. If he can\'t get 75 copper coins for wine, he may even kill.

"Jeweler" smelled the murderous spirit of Manda. He dared not rush forward and let two servants rush up first.

Manda punched a servant in the stomach. The servant watched his stomach sink with his fist, knelt on the ground and vomited. Another servant was kicked over by Manda.

The "jeweler" stood where he was, holding a short knife in his hand, and could shoot at any time.

Manda walked forward slowly and said in a low voice, "pay for the wine immediately. Don\'t lose your life for seventy-five copper coins."

The jeweler was silent. Manda jumped up and hit the jeweler in the chest. The jeweler splashed on the ground.

Manda\'s fist remained in the air for a long time.

Just now I could clearly see the face of the "jeweler", why there was only a hat and a robe left on the ground.

He looked back and saw that the two servants had also disappeared. When he caught up with the door, he saw three figures running wildly under the sunset. Manda wanted to chase them out, but he heard worm shout, "don\'t chase. The merchant is a believer of the God of deception, apat. You may not win him."

Manda said angrily, "since you see his identity, why don\'t you come out to help?"

"This is the punishment of the gods for us. It\'s just a few glasses of wine. The loss is not too great. Moreover, they left clothes. This should be the best material."

Manda stared at the clothes with cockfighting eyes for a long time. She kicked the clothes and hat out of the door. The cloth was the worst linen, which was worth eight copper coins.

In just three days, she encountered two groups of swindlers. Manda sacrificed a whole plate of bacon to Hermes, hoping that the bad luck would end.

In the next nearly a month, only five guests came to the door. Three of them ordered only one glass of wine, one ordered five glasses of wine, and another came to beg for food.

The guest who came to beg came from lateritic County, where there was a rebellion. His home was destroyed. He took his wife and children to Niujiao town to go to relatives.

This is very important news. Worm gave him a glass of wine, two loaves of bread and a piece of bacon to feed his family.

Red soil county is the territory of the Marquis of NARS. The rebellion there proves that NARS is in a situation of internal and external troubles, which is a great opportunity to take advantage of the fire.

Worm reported the news to the count that day. The count didn\'t disclose any news and only asked worm to buy 5000 pounds more grain.

Doesn\'t the count want revenge? Disdain to do things that fall into a well? And NARS?

Unable to guess the count\'s mind, worm told Manda the situation for the first time.

Manda didn\'t care about the count\'s mind. His only concern was why the count didn\'t give money.

One pound of grain costs one copper coin, and five thousand pounds costs fifty silver coins. Before, the capital had been used up. Now Manda has to pay for each copper coin.

Werm was still keen on wine making. All the wine barrels in the tavern were filled. Manda sat at the door quietly in a daze. He still had four gold coins, eleven silver coins and thirty-three copper coins in his hand. Next, he had to figure out how to spend each copper coin.

We must buy grain and pay taxes, which requires 75 silver coins.

It\'s almost the end of the year, and it\'s time for the Bank of communications to pay its dues. It needs 30 silver coins.

Werm had to keep making wine. The day before yesterday, he found that the grapes were gone. He was crazy all day. Just the money for grapes, at least 20 silver coins a month.

There is also the Qianli horse. Its skin tinea is better and a lot stronger. Its appetite increases greatly. It eats 20 pounds of wheat and 50 pounds of grass every day. It needs at least seven silver coins a month.

According to this trend, the tavern will be closed in three months.

Werm walked out of the warehouse with a few pots and carefully placed the pots by the wall.

"We have run out of barrels. We have to buy more."

"OK." Manda sat at the door and gave a wooden promise.

"I know it\'s hard, but we must stick to it. It\'s the count\'s order." worm sat next to Manda, took out three gold coins and put them into Manda\'s hand.

A bookworm seldom has the opportunity to perform a task. It is rare to complete a task. He will also choose merit as a reward. These three gold coins are all his savings around the count for decades.

"Just for the count\'s orders?" Manda smiled at worm.

"Yes." worm\'s cheek twitched, his left eye drooped, his right eye rose, and the tip of his nose tilted to his cheek. Every time he lied, his facial features were distorted.

No wonder he will become bored and stingy. He needs this tavern. Here is the life he really yearns for.

"Think of a way, you always have a way." worm put three gold coins into Manda\'s hand.

"There will be a way." Manda clutched the gold coin and went back to her room.

The next morning, Manda spent twenty copper coins, hired a carriage or two, took two barrels of wine and went to Denison\'s house.

Seeing the wine bucket in the car, Denison frowned and said, "if you want to sell wine in the market, you need to pay another membership fee, and I won\'t easily give you a booth. Each line has its own rules. If you want to sell me wine, you\'d better pull it back. I don\'t lack wine."

"This is a gift for you. Please try it. If you like it, I\'ll send more."

Donison didn\'t want to accept Manda\'s wine. He didn\'t want to have too much relationship with the count\'s people, but when he saw Manda put five gold coins on the barrel, he changed his mind. The money was not too much for him, but he liked smart children.

He tasted the wine, smacked his lips, tasted the mellow smell of the wine, and tasted Manda\'s intention.

"It\'s a pity that such a good wine can\'t be sold only because the tavern is remote. How much does such a barrel of wine cost?"

"Three silver coins." Manda smiled, and talking to smart people was so simple.

"Very reasonable price." donison showed Manda two ways. The first way: selling wine to various pubs.

"There are four pubs in Niujiao town. No pub will refuse such good wine. You can sell at least 80 barrels a month."

Eighty barrels of wine and 240 silver coins can earn almost one and a half gold coins, excluding the cost and tax of brewing.

Such income is enough to support the operation of a pub, but it is far from Manda\'s ambition.

The second way: sell the wine to the viscount.

"A can of wine is worth sixteen silver coins. In this way, it can be worthy of the identity of a viscount. It can sell almost ten barrels a month, but there are two conditions. First, you can continue to sell wine in the tavern, but you can\'t sell wine to other taverns. This is the exclusive property of viscount gassac. Second, half of the income from selling wine must belong to me. I introduced you to the viscount."

Ten barrels of wine, 160 silver coins, half of which belong to Denison, leaving only 80 silver coins. Before taking into account the taxes and the cost of brewing, this road seems to have lost a lot.

But there is another tempting condition waiting for him.

Donison said with a smile, "if you choose this road, you will get to know the viscount. Smart people like you should not want to sell wine for a lifetime."
