Chapter 1713 Tavern and Discounts
Perhaps, ordinary wine is not easy to get the soldiers who are used to drinking, especially those with higher alcohol content. You should know that in this era, Europeans drank beer and wine as water (Europeans in this era did not drink white water because they were afraid of getting sick and did not take a bath because of this). But this doesn't matter. Marin is a time traveler, so how could he not have any means?
The easiest way is to use mixed wine. In modern times, it is easy to get drunk if you want to make a prank - just mix white wine with beer or red wine, it is easy to get drunk and it is even more uncomfortable afterwards.
Although the red wine at Lafite winery is not easy to get drunk and the alcohol content is low, Marin can make it easier to get drunk. For example, get some medical alcohol from Beihai Kingdom and mix it into Lafite wine with a higher alcohol content of 20 to 30 degrees.
When blending alcohol, wine is not easy to break, and it is also easy to get drunk. In addition, Marin can also find the imperial physicians from the Ming Dynasty to prepare some sleeping pills, mix them into the wine to help hypnosis, and it is easier to drink Baron Yogale and his men. At that time, it will be convenient for the assassin to do it...
Thinking of this, Marin called Kohler and Sauer two confidants to improve the conspiracy plan together. But Kohler raised objections:
"Grand Duke, if you do this, you can certainly defeat Margaret and his son. But then John Rafi will be exposed. Didn't you say that you should use his hands to balance the power of France and Spain? If you put John Rafi in in order to assassinate the mother and son, wouldn't it be a bit unprofitable?"
When Marin thought it was true, John Lafite was a key figure who had already been involved in the top leaders of France. The key figure should be used at the most critical moment. If it were only used to assassinate Margaret and his son in Tudor, it would be a bit of a waste of time. After all, Margaret's "mother and his son" would only pose a certain threat to England, but it has not yet affected the overall situation. It is indeed not cost-effective to get along with John Lafite for them. However, what should I do if I don't do this?
Saul thought for a while and said:
"If you win over Baron Yogail alone, it will naturally be easy to expose John Rafi. But what if we ask John to win over several city defense officers at the same time? I can't see the degree of deliberation in it when I give them all wine."
"As for assassination, I suggest that the night before the assassination, put hypnotic drugs in the wine. At the same time, arrange in advance for people with English backgrounds to contact Baron Yogale. In this way, John can turn the blame on England afterwards. That is to say, the Englishman drugged the wine... John himself has no connection with England, and he can also protect himself..."
When Marin heard this, he nodded repeatedly, thinking that this idea was good. It was indeed a good way to take the blame from the Englishman. Moreover, England's motivation for assassination of Margaret's "mother and son" was much more obvious than Marin. In other words, the outside world did not think that Marin had the motivation to assassinate the "mother and son".
Moreover, Marin further thought that if John Raffie was sent to win over Baron Yogale, he secretly encouraged English spies in Paris to win over Baron Yogale. Even if he had to do something, the English could send someone to do it. This would be more reasonable...
At this time, Kohler also added:
"Duke, I have checked the information of that military camp. It seems that the soldiers of the city guards in that military camp sometimes have to be on the night, and each time they send about two or three hundred people to patrol the night. If there are night missions, the people responsible for night will not drink randomly. If there are two or three hundred sober soldiers, it will be a big problem. Therefore, we must find out whether there are night people on the night that day."
After a pause, Kohler said again:
"As for the issue of letting Baron Jogail's soldiers drink, I don't think there is any need to send John Rafi. I think it's better to just open a tavern next to that barracks? All soldiers like to drink. You send a Paris spy to open a tavern next to that barracks, and you can definitely attract soldiers. After the assassination is completed, this tavern can give up at any time..."
When Malin heard this, his eyes lit up:
"Yes, this suggestion is good! However, there must be taverns next to the military camp... Well... By the way, I can directly buy the original tavern at a premium, which can save a lot of time!" Marin clapped happily.
"As for attracting the soldiers in the military camp to drink... haha, this is not a problem for me!"
Marin is a person from later generations. It is not easy to attract soldiers to drink - promotions and discounts!
Malin remembers that in his previous life, once the mall promotions were discounted, he would have surrounded a group of people. Although most of them were aunts, there were also many young people. After all, it would be a fool to not take advantage of them.
For example, after the pub changes ownership, he can send someone to change his signature, decorate it briefly, and then have a "big reward for opening a business" - all drinks are 60% off...
There are no rich people these days, and the soldiers are generally poor. Seeing that there are such a big advantage, they still come up to buy wine and drink it. When the day it is appropriate to start, add some ingredients to the wine...
...
Thinking of adding ingredients, Malin went directly to the medical room to find Doctor Liu. Although Liu En is a gynecologist, he also knows other things. Malin wanted this kind of medicine that makes people drink, and Liu En said without thinking:
"Then I will give you some sweat medicine?"
After hearing this, Malin shook his head:
"Doctor Liu, what I want is to pour medicine over thousands of people. They definitely don't drink it together. The sweating medicine is effective too quickly. If you find that the person who drinks in front has poured the medicine directly, will the people behind you still drink it? So, what I want is the kind of thing I don't feel when I start drinking, and I will get drunk after a while."
"If you want to get drunk, just mix different wines... Well, I can slightly modify the prescription for sweating drugs to reduce the efficacy of the medicine. Then, add some sleep-aided medicines such as jujube seeds... In this way, if you add them to the wine, you will be drunk, and it is not as effective as sweating drugs..."
After thinking about it, Marin could only do this. Although the effect was a little weaker, at least the problem would not be exposed. If the sweating pill was poured immediately, it would be possible for everyone to see the problem. This kind of sleep-aided medicine, combined with the mixed wine, was intoxicating but not very good.
...
After returning, Marin ordered Kohler:
"You make arrangements for us in Paris to take down the tavern near the barracks and carry out a 'opening and rewarding guest', and all the drinks are discounted. At the same time, we will transport some alcohol and whiskey (Rye Erguotou) to mix all the wine into a mixed wine. At the same time, we will notify John Lafite to review the night arrangements of the downtown defense force and find the right date to start."
