Xu Fan's mouth is very tricky, this is also Xu Chen's habit of taking wine for so many days, after drinking Xu Chen's so much wine, not only the amount of wine has been practiced, but the skill of this tasting is not much worse, as soon as the wine is entered, the trace of sourness in the wine fragrance can never escape Xu Fan's tongue.

"This kid actually mixed water in wine!" This is the thought that has been echoing in Xu Fan's mind now.

As for the idea that Xu Chen dared to do this, Mr. Xu would not have it, let alone mixing it with water, even if it was changed to poison one day, it is estimated that as long as there is a need, this precious apprentice of his will not hesitate to do it.

"Brother Xu, Brother Xu!" A person dressed as a scribe next to Xu Fan saw Xu Fan's appearance, thinking that he was also stunned by this fine wine, and didn't mind Xu Fan's gaffe, and hurriedly called back the distracted Xu Fan.

"Brother Xu, you have accepted a good apprentice! You have received such a good wine but do not treasure it, but take it out to share with everyone, such a character is really rare!" the scribe next to him continued.

"Yes, yes, such a young man, what a rarity!" said another, older scribe.

As the saying goes, eating people has a soft mouth, and they drank Xu Chen's wine plainly, which is a matter of saying a few kind words in front of other teachers, and these literati are still happy to do it.

Listening to the praise of the friends beside him for Xu Chen, the corners of Xu Fan's eyes couldn't help twitching twice. looked at Xu Chen who had a regretful expression on the stage downstairs outside, and then looked at the friends who were still saying good things about Xu Chen beside him, Xu Fan shook his head helplessly.

Xu Chen's soju has been brewed for a while, but except for a few people close to him, Xu Chen has not promoted it on a large scale, and even the restaurants in Chongrenfang sell parallel goods mixed with water, although it tastes better than ordinary wine, but it is much worse than those world-famous good wines, so it has not caused any sensation.

This is Xu Chen's deliberate, or the original reason, the influence of such a thing as soju is too great, this point is now known by the gentry and eunuchs who are crying bitterly in the restaurant, if Xu Chen took out the soju earlier, now he is estimated that the bones have been taken away by wild dogs.

Today's Xu Chen at least has the ability to protect himself in this Yuzhang County, and for those drunkards who want to drink, they can't do the act of killing people for a sip of wine, and for those families who are interested in the profits of red soju, with the banner of Wang Xian and the teacher, they have to weigh it before making a move. And these are enough for Xu Chen, as long as there is time to react, Xu Chen will be sure to deal with unexpected situations.

Therefore, today Xu Chen is going to promote the long-hidden soju, and adding some water is just a marketing method to get away with it.

Xu Chen saw that everyone was still immersed in the aftertaste of the wine and couldn't extricate himself, so he hurriedly took the opportunity to jump off the stage.

"Shopkeeper Wang, hurry! Let the troupe go up!" Xu Chen hurriedly greeted Shopkeeper Wang as soon as he got off the stage.

After a while, the guests, who were still immersed in their memories, were awakened by the rapid sound of gongs and drums, and a group of actors dressed in fancy costumes came out one after another, and after taking the stage, they began to perform on their own.

In these years, the drama is still stuck in simple singing, dancing or juggling, and there is no coherent real opera with plot, lines, and performances.

What Xu Chen did today is to borrow some elements of Peking Opera in later generations to tell a complete story, the actors are all in a hurry, and the performance is probably not even comparable to those standing on the street compared to later generations. It's just that fortunately, under Xu Chen's strict requirements, he finally memorized the lines clearly, and the rest depends on their own expressions, Xu Chen is looking for old people in the juggling industry, who have rich experience in performing, and there is no stage fright, even if there is really a time when he forgets the words, he can rely on experience to get through.

The novel performance attracted the attention of the guests, who temporarily forgot their nostalgia for the wine and began to concentrate on watching the play.

The stage tells the story of Xue Rengui's three arrows to Tianshan, Xu Chen put the story of the romance of later generations on the stage, and most of Xue Rengui's story is known, but the story on the stage is so fresh and with a hint of fantasy that still firmly grasps the hearts of the guests.

As the plot slowly unfolded, the whole restaurant fell silent, only the sound of the performance on the stage remained, and everyone forgot the joy and sorrow just now and devoted themselves to the drama on the stage.

Seeing this, Xu Chen hurriedly ordered the guys to go out to serve wine and food, the guys were all specially trained, and they walked quickly and steadily, but they didn't make any loud noise.

When the guests came back to their senses during the play, they saw that the table in front of them was already full of food and drink.

It's just that when they opened the wine jar and poured out the wine, they all shook their heads in disappointment, not the kind of wine just now!

With this regretful mood, everyone poured out the wine in the altar and drank it one by one, but Zhuyu was in front, and then drinking this wine that usually felt delicious tasted like wax.

It was in this atmosphere that the style on the stage suddenly became one side, and the love of children who was still warm and affectionate just now suddenly turned into an impassioned battlefield fight. In fierce confrontations again and again, the hearts of the audience in the restaurant were tightly grasped by the performances of the actors on the stage, and with the transformation of the strength of the two armies on the battlefield, everyone's mood continued to fluctuate.

The people who were moved by the performance began to involuntarily pick up the wine glasses on the table and pour the wine one by one, just thinking about the wine they had just drunk, and the helplessness and regret in the hearts of the audience became deeper and deeper.

It was in this atmosphere that the performance on the stage was gradually coming to an end, Xu Chen found Liu Jin in *, and asked Lao Liu Tou again: "Are you ready?"

"Childe, don't worry! The old slave will never spoil Childe's business!" Liu Jin has learned some of Xu Chen's plans from Xu Chen, and also learned about his key role in the whole plan, for Xu Chen's trust, Liu Jin is deeply moved, these days have been constantly rehearsing, just to be able to do a good job of the master's instructions tonight.

"Okay! just remember to explain your affairs specifically, and you only need to come over the rest!" Xu Chen said again.

"Okay, Childe!" Liu Jin nodded heavily.

The drama on the stage is finally over, and the actors slowly withdraw from the stage, and when they return, they will each get a good reward, and it will not be in vain for their hard work these days.

After the actors got off the stage, Liu Jin walked up to the stage, bowed deeply to the guests, and said: "Welcome to the opening ceremony of Xu Chen Xu Gongzi's new store!

"Today, Xu Gongzi's new store opened, and he was invited to participate in it, and let him preside over a small auction here. Liu Jin continued.

"Okay! Old Liu, how many sets of furniture have you prepared today? Are we all waiting for this?" The voice was a housekeeper of a family, who went to Liu Jin's house a lot on weekdays, and naturally participated in the auction, but there was little gain. Today, he is coming for Lao Liu's furniture, who let his master keep urging him at home?

"That's right, Boss Liu, don't say anything superfluous, aren't we all here for you?" Let's start quickly!" This is also a middle-aged man who looks like a housekeeper, his voice is very loud, and the wording is a little inappropriate, as if he has no scruples about Xu Chen, the master.

"Hehe, please wait, I was also invited by Xu Gongzi to come down today, after all, this auction is still run by Xu Gongzi, and the host has to make it clear what the boss has to explain, right?" Liu Jin smiled and said.

"Old Liutou, you are so fucking verbose! If you have anything to say, say it quickly!" exclaimed a middle-aged strong man in the audience.

Liu Jin smiled when he heard this, nodded to the audience, and said: "This auction will be presided over by Zaixia, as for the things that will be auctioned in this auction, I think you also have a general understanding of the invitation posted by Xu Gongzi, as for the specific content, I will sell it first, and you will be able to see it with your own eyes later." I won't say much about the rules of this auction, there is nothing profound, the one with the highest price will have to go!"

"Okay, now I announce that this auction is now officially opened! Here is the first thing of this auction, you are optimistic!" Liu Jin pointed to the things that the guy brought up and said to the audience.

The eyes of everyone in the hotel followed Liu Jin's fingers and looked at the guy who slowly walked onto the stage, the guy was just a delicate young man, and everyone was not as good as Long Yang, so it was naturally impossible to be interested in this little guy, and the focus of everyone's attention was the tray in his hand!

The tray was covered with red silk, a mass of something bulging high, and I don't know what exactly was underneath.

"Everyone, please see, this is the first auction item of the day!" Liu Jin said to everyone with a smile.

"Liu Jin, can you fucking be happy? Do this every time, quickly lift the silk and let everyone see what it is!" A complaining voice came from under the stage, it seemed that it was Liu Jin's old customer.

Liu Jin looked at the audience with a smile, and saw that the heat was almost over, so he hurriedly said, "Okay!

After speaking, he stretched out his hand and lifted the red silk, only to see that there was only a wine jar on the tray!

The wine jar is not large, and it is estimated that the wine that can be filled in it will never exceed ten catties!

Everyone was puzzled at first, although Xu Chen's auction would definitely not produce any rare treasures, but it would not just take a jar of wine to fool people at the beginning, right? Immediately, the guest with a fast brain thought of the bowl of wine he had just drunk, and the hot feeling still echoed in his throat.

"Old Liu, this ...... Could it be?" asked one of the guests, uncertain.

"Isn't this going to be ......?"

"Lao Liu, don't sell it, open it and let us see!"

"That's it!"

……

Liu Jin smiled when he heard this, and said, "Okay!"

After speaking, he stretched out his hand, dissipated the mud seal, and suddenly a smell of wine that was even stronger than just now wafted out.

There is no need for superfluous words these days......

"Old Liu, I'll give you a hundred times! This wine is mine!" the middle-aged strong man just now stood up anxiously and shouted at Liu Jin.

"Fat Wang, you didn't fucking wake up! I want to buy such a good wine, dream about you! I'll give you five hundred!" Another middle-aged man at a table next to the middle-aged strong man hurriedly stood up and retorted when he heard this.

"Hehe, the two of you are a little anxious, and you haven't said the reserve price of this jar of wine yet!" Liu Jin said with a smile.

"Tell me, what's the reserve price?" The middle-aged strong man couldn't help it!

"Everyone, listen, the reserve price of this jar of wine is 1,000 yuan!" Liu Jin stretched out a finger and said to everyone in the audience.

"Each price increase must not be less than 100 yuan! Now, you can start bidding!" Liu Jin said with a smile regardless of the stunned crowd in the audience.
