Shen Qiaodie never expected that the humble Li Chenan would say such words to her.
No matter what the rumors are, she firmly believes that her understanding of Li Chenan is the most correct.
His song "Die Lian Hua" must have come from Mr. Zhihua's hand!
Because it was simply impossible for him to make such words.
Even if he beat her brother Shen Jiye outside the government office, it was just a manifestation of his reckless behavior, relying on Zhongli Mansion, which he thought he could rely on.
She took a closer look outside the tavern just now. Although the style of the tavern did surprise her, after thinking about it, she still thought that Zhongli Mansion sent someone to help him.
He is still the same fool as before.
It’s just that I’ve had some shitty luck now.
But he didn't know that the sudden stay of luck would also be short-lived.
Without the attention of Zhongli Mansion, he, Li Chenan, is still nothing.
He couldn't even buy a grain of grain for brewing wine in Guangling City!
He is really stupid!
If he actually dares to contradict himself, then just wait until he is happy for a while before going bankrupt in despair!
As a result, Shen Qiaodie was no longer in the mood to taste the wine.
She let out a long breath, stood up slowly, forced a smile on her face, bowed to Zhongli Ruoshui and the others again, and said apologetically: "I just have some things to do. The third lady and the two young masters Slow use!"
"If Third Miss is free, please call me at any time. I just happened to have a collection of poems and essays by Qi Zhixue, a great talent in Kyoto. Each one is extremely wonderful. If Third Miss likes it, I will give it to you to read."
Qi Zhixue's face turned red.
He has read the poem "About to Enter the Wine" that Su Muxin copied for him. According to Hua Lao's initial evaluation, that poem is estimated to be in the top ten of "Ning's Poetry Collection"!
Coupled with the song "Butterfly Loves Flowers" he composed on March 3rd, this boy Li Chenan has one word and one poem that can be included in the "Ning Poetry Collection". Looking at the entire Ning Kingdom now, who can stand in his limelight? superior?
Su Muxin said that although the boy was only seventeen years old, he was already a famous person in the contemporary era. However, he did not like those false names, so he still hid in Erjinggou alley. This was the reason why Hua Lao regarded him as a confidant and a friend whom he had forgotten all year round——
If you have great talent, don’t let it go!
Treat fame and wealth like dirt!
I have endured it for more than ten years but my heart has not changed!
This is the most perfect interpretation of the fact that without indifference, one cannot be clear-minded, and without tranquility, one cannot reach far!
At this moment, this woman actually mentioned her poems in front of him... Doesn't this mean that she is making herself unbearable by playing tricks on others?
Zhongli Ruoshui smiled and picked up the wine cup, "I haven't been free recently, so go ahead and do your work."
"……good."
Shen Qiaodie originally thought that these words gave Zhongli Ruoshui an excuse, and Zhongli Ruoshui would use this excuse to leave with her. After all, Zhongli Ruoshui's coming had given Li Chenan enough face, and she would not stay here anymore. There's no point in ruining the place.
But she didn't leave.
Then she probably came with these two noble gentlemen.
So Shen Qiaodie resigned and was about to leave the tavern, but Cheng Zhe suddenly stopped her:
"etc!"
Shen Qiaodie thought that the noble young master had some orders, so she saw Cheng Zhe looking at Li Chenan and pointing at Shen Qiaodie: "Sell me her one or two wines, is that okay?"
Li Chenan nodded, "You can have this."
"Here are two hundred coins, serve the wine!"
"Okay, sir, wait a moment."
Shen Qiaodie was immediately confused, what's the matter? Do you still need a quota for selling wine?
This noble young man speaks with a Kyoto accent, and he sits at the same table as Miss Zhongli... Could he be the eldest young master of Duke Cheng's residence?
Didn't he come to Guangling City to propose marriage to Zhongli Mansion? Why are these two people here?
It should be that the third young lady is using Li Chenan as an excuse to evade, but the fool has no idea.
However... if we can make friends with such noble people, it will be of great benefit to the future of both the Shen family and the Huo family.
She was about to come back and sit down again, but Cheng Zhe waved to her: "Your share is mine now. If you want to drink more, come back tomorrow!"
Shen Qiaodie's face turned red and she felt a little embarrassed. She looked at Zhongli Ruoshui for help, but she saw Zhongli Ruoshui taking a sip of the wine, "Good wine!"
"It's really a good wine!"
When she praised her like this, Qi Zhixue beside her became depressed. His cup was drunk by Cheng Zhe, and he still doesn't know the taste of the wine.
"You have to pay me a drink!"
Cheng Zhe raised his thick eyebrows, "Can you beat me?"
Qi Zhixue was speechless and glared at Cheng Zhe fiercely. Her eyes fell on the other cup of wine in front of Zhongli Ruoshui and she swallowed.
Zhongli Ruoshui generously pushed the cup of wine over. Qi Zhixue was overjoyed and drank it all in one gulp. After a moment, he waved his arms excitedly and shouted:
“Good wine!”
"Its taste is sweet, its rhyme is long, its fragrance is mellow, and its power... majestic!"
"Shopkeeper, how about making an exception for your opening today?"
Seeing Li Chenan bring a cup of wine, Qi Zhixue said eagerly: "The price is doubled, no, tripled, so I can have a nice drink and enjoy it, okay?"
Shen Qiaodie was stunned.
So, is the wine he made really good?
Two hundred cents and one tael of wine... The young master was actually willing to pay three times the price... Six hundred cents and one tael... Six hundred taels of silver per catty. How much more expensive is this than Guangling San?
She swallowed in disbelief, thinking that with such a high price, even if Li Chenan was a fool, he would definitely sell it!
But then she was dumbfounded——
"I'm sorry," Li Chenan put the cup of wine in his hand in front of Cheng Zhe, looked at Qi Zhixue and said with a smile: "This is the rule of the tavern. If the rules are not straight, it cannot be square, and if the rules are not straight, it cannot be round. So...there are no exceptions to the rules!"
"What a good saying: no exceptions to the rules!"
Five people walked in outside the tavern.
These were five middle-aged men who looked rich and well-dressed. Except for the man who spoke at the front who looked thin, the other four all looked potbellied.
"As merchants, the most important thing we care about is rules. Not only does this little brother make good wine, but he also has such noble sentiments. I, Cai Zhengyao, admire him!"
"Please also ask my little brother to give us five a drink or two each!"
The five people chose a table and sat down. Shen Qiaodie looked at Cai Zhengyao. This man was the second largest grain merchant in Guangling City. Uncle Huo Chuanming was very concerned about Jiangnan's autumn grain. His father said that Cai Zhengyao was deeply involved in Jiangnan. For many years... The Shen family has not sold grain to Li Chenan to make wine, but Cai Zhengyao came to this tavern in person!
Could it be that he could still fancy the little bit of food that Li Chenan's tavern needed?
A strange light flashed in her eyes, and then she walked out.
Li Chenan was serving drinks to Cai Zhengyao and the other five people behind the counter, but Zhongli Ruoshui walked over at this moment. ,
She leaned on the counter with her elbows, supported her chin with her palms, looked at Li Chenan who was busy, and whispered: "Hey, let me tell you, can you make me a small pot and I can take it back?"
Li Chenan did not raise his head.
"no!"
Zhongli Ruoshui pouted, "You must be stingy!"
Her eyes suddenly lit up, "How about... you set a price, and I will buy you and your tavern together!"
"how?"
