326: Chapter 326 Zhang Liang Instigates Outlaws to Commit Crimes

"One carriage of this steam train is as big as a room, and it's filled with qin wine."

"The taste of qin wine is sharp and exquisite."

Zhang Liang said, "If you've ever tasted it once, you'll never forget the flavor."

These outlaws were all heavy drinkers, and some among them had tasted qin wine before.

He said in agreement, "qin wine isn't something you can drink just because you want to."

"It's very expensive!"

"I was fortunate enough to have tasted qin wine, and the flavor was wonderful."

Zhang Liang had arranged for shills beforehand to further stimulate these people's yearning for qin wine.

Seeing more and more people longing for qin wine, Zhang Liang continued, "qin wine is also known as Feng wine."

"Legend has it that during the Yin Shang Dynasty, the daughter of Duke Mu of Qin fell in love with an immortal."

"An immortal!"

Seeing Zhang Liang start a story, more and more people gathered to watch.

They all looked at Zhang Liang with curious expressions.

Some even took out melon seeds, cracking them while watching Zhang Liang, signaling for him to hurry up and continue.

Zhang Liang saw that everyone's interest was thoroughly piqued.

The corners of his mouth curled slightly.

He was only afraid they wouldn't be interested in qin wine; now that they were, he could mobilize them to attack the steam train.

Zhang Liang walked through the crowd so that more people could hear the story of qin wine clearly, deepening their curiosity.

"Heaven was moved by their love and sent down a phoenix to guide the lovers."

"On its way to the mortal realm, the phoenix drank from a river to quench its thirst. Influenced by the phoenix's divine power, the wine brewed with water from this river became incredibly fragrant, so people named it Feng wine."

"And because the State of Qin is located on the western frontier, everyone calls the Feng wine of Qin 'xifeng wine'."

"The Military Counselor has great insight."

Peng Yue praised.

For these outlaws, being without wine was absolutely unacceptable.

The reason why they loved to drink was also simple.

Besides wine being precious, being hunted by government troops every day created too much pressure.

Even though they could dive into the Yunmeng Marsh after committing a crime.

But as the saying goes, if you always stand by the river, your shoes are bound to get wet; who knows when their luck would run out!

Besides relieving stress, drinking wine they could never afford in a lifetime made even death seem worthwhile.

Peng Yue had committed so many robberies; how could he not know that qin wine was good stuff?

It felt like swallowing fire, burning all the way from the mouth to the stomach.

It was powerful and sharp!

A greedy light flickered in his eyes, showing he had clearly developed a craving for qin wine.

Zhang Liang saw that Peng Yue was also tempted.

He knew that his plan to attack the Great Qin steam train was now certain.

"Chief."

Zhang Liang said, "The steam train has multiple carriages, and besides qin wine, there are other good things inside."

"I'm all ears."

Peng Yue asked Zhang Liang to elaborate.

"I wonder if the Chief has heard of the steam rotary tiller and the steam thresher."

Zhang Liang said, "The steam rotary tiller plows fields faster than an ox."

"Many landlords have purchased steam rotary tillers to replace their oxen."

"The oxen of these landlords were slaughtered and served on their dinner tables."

"Mhm."

Peng Yue nodded.

There were many fertile fields surrounding the Yunmeng Marsh, and he had seen the steam rotary tiller and steam thresher at work when entering or leaving the marsh.

The first time he saw the steam rotary tiller and steam thresher, he had even made a point to ask the farmers about them.
