Chapter 21: The Undercurrent

Three days ago, the second son of the Zhao family in the General Military Mansion, Zhao Quan returned to Haiyun Pass, just went to the bar, and after tasting the spirits, he was full of praise, so he asked for a lot of money to buy the secret recipe for the spirits, but Wu Xiaolin refused, he was not good at robbing in front of everyone, and left quietly with a smile.

Unexpectedly, after Zhao Quan went back, he asked the people of the Wang family to take action, saying that he wanted the secret recipe for spirits, he was ruthless with a black belly, and he was a hypocrite who hid a knife in his smile, and there was a great relationship between the Wang family and Zhao Quan.

Wang Xiaoyu's sister is Zhao Quan's wife, Zhao Quan was able to go to the imperial capital, and he also had the support of the Wang family.

Ye Qing, who knew the cause and effect, was speechless, how could he have a relationship with the three sons of the General Military Mansion, he had ruined the good deeds of the third prince before, killed his personal guards, but saved the wife and daughter of the eldest prince a few days ago, and now there is a second prince who wants to take advantage of his own liquor secret recipe.

Ye Qing muttered in his heart: "It seems that the impact of the demon beast attack on the city is not over yet. ”

He signed a contract with the Crow, knowing that although the chief soldier Zhao Jing was seriously injured by the Crow, he himself was seriously injured and could not continue to preside over the overall situation of Haiyun Pass, so he recalled his eldest son Zhao Ce and second son Zhao Quan in the imperial capital.

Yes, the second prince secretly instructed this matter, Ye Qing decided not to pursue this matter after thinking about it, he was purely for the sake of the face of the chief soldier Zhao Jing.

Zhao Jing is dedicated to the people, guarding Haiyun Pass, diligent in political affairs, and is supported by millions of people in Haiyun Pass, and is very popular with the people.

After the investigation, he looked at the time, and asked Wu Xiaolin to make an appointment with the two wine merchants and patriarchs for a banquet.

He went directly to Tianxiang Restaurant, and when he came back this time, he was full of feelings, before he came to work here for money, and now he is not what it used to be, and the kitchen staff who used to work together also greeted Ye Qing when they saw it.

Ye Qing saw Wu Xiaolin on the fifth floor, Wei Xingchen was waiting for him, and the patriarchs of the Liu family and the Nie family also came early.

Liu Jinhong, the head of the Liu family, smiled very modestly and said: "Old man Liu Jinhong, who has long admired the name of Ye Qinggongzi, is really honored to have the honor to see the inventor of spirits today." ”

Nie Zhantian also greeted with a smile: "Young Master Ye Qing is a talent, handsome and chic, and at a glance, you can know that Young Master Ye Qing is a hero of the dragon and phoenix among people. ”

Liu Jinhong and Nie Zhantian are all old fritters, they praise people as soon as they come, they are very good at talking, and they would have been fluttering for a long time if they were ordinary people.

Wu Xiaolin and Wei Xingchen were also very happy when they heard their praise for Ye Qing, showing a happy look.

Ye Qing's expression was indifferent, he just gave a sigh of encouragement, and his expression was very cold.

When he saw that everyone had arrived, he went straight to the point and said, "Don't say polite words, here, I want to ask the two patriarchs what they really think of our Ye Qing Bar spirits, what do you think of my spirits?"

Nie Zhantian and Liu Jinhong were silent and silent, neither of them wanted to reveal their true thoughts.

After the awkward cold scene was quiet for a moment, Nie Zhantian said haha: "I have also tasted the spirits, it is the best of the wine, and the fragrance is incomparably mellow. ”

Liu Jinhong also echoed: "What's more amazing is that it stays down the throat, like a feeling of a fire burning all the way, and people today have endless aftertastes." ”

Both of them are old fritters, avoiding the heavy and light, and they want Ye Qing to speak first.

Ye Qing smiled and said: "Today, I asked the two of you to come out, which shows that I really want to talk about cooperation with you, if the two of you don't have the will to cooperate, we can end the banquet now, I believe that the two wine merchants of the Wu family and the Cheng family are also happy to see this banquet end early." ”

"If you want to continue talking, make a statement. ”

Ye Qing didn't have time to play with them, so he directly forced them to make a statement, and he took the initiative to make an appointment, and he had already made a statement, and their attitude made Ye Qing very unhappy.

His fingers tapped on the table, once, twice, three times.

After knocking three times, Ye Qing got up with a sigh and said, "Xiao Lin, let's go." ”

He wants a collaborator, a principled collaborator, not two cowering cowards.

If they cooperated with Ye Qing, it meant that they would have to face the pressure of other competing merchants in Haiyun Pass, but as one of the four largest wine merchants in Haiyun Pass, they had no courage and were not willing to take any risks, which made Ye Qing lose confidence in them.

Among the four wine merchants, the reason why he invited the Liu family and the Nie family was because he worked in Tianxiang Restaurant before, and Liu Shisan's shopkeeper took a lot of care of him, and the two of them were the owners of Tianxiang Restaurant.

Ye Qing is a person who will repay his kindness, and now his career is thriving, he talked to Liu Shisan before, and wanted to dig him up, but he was rejected by the loyal Liu Shisan, and he reciprocated the favor, he asked Ye Qing to cooperate with their owner, he looked at the previous fate and affection, so he made an appointment with the two patriarchs of the Liu family and the Nie family, but they didn't cherish it, so there was no way.

Liu Jinhong and Nie Zhantian, who had been playing Tai Chi, immediately panicked when they saw Ye Qing get up, and hurriedly said, "Ye Qing, Xiaoyou, we haven't talked about cooperation yet?"

Ye Qing said with a smile: "Don't talk about it, I asked you to come out before for the sake of the face of Liu Shisan's shopkeeper in Tianxiang Restaurant, but I found that you are not suitable for my collaborators, so I invited you to this meal." ”

At this time, Nie Zhantian and Liu Jinhong regretted it very much, Ye Qingcheng wanted to talk to him before, but he was vain with him, and he was insincere, and now that they are cooperating, it is impossible for them not to regret it.

The market for spirits is too big, there is no spirits culture in this world at all, spirits are very popular as soon as they come out, others have drunk spirits, the previous wine is simply difficult to swallow, just like drinking horse urine, a jar of gold spirits is still in short supply, for those who love wine, spirits are like a new world.

The liquor business made a steady profit, but when they saw that Ye Qing was just a teenager, they despised it and had no respect.

Ye Qing took Wu Xiaolin, Wei Xingchen, Ah Yi, Ah Er, and Ah San as soon as they got up when they heard a woman's voice coming from the door.

"What a coincidence, Lord Ye Qing, you are also here!"

The feminine temperament is elegant, with a fascinating beautiful face, a smile like a flower, fair skin, a tall figure, and a pair of slender white and sexy jade legs that will make people think about it.

Ye Qing smiled when she saw the woman: "Deacon Wu Qian, it's really a coincidence to meet you here!"

Wu Qian was a little embarrassed, she thought that Ye Qing's other meaning was to ask herself if she was following him when she appeared at the door in such a timely manner, she confessed: "Lord Ye Qing, this is really a coincidence, today Tianxiang Restaurant bought a demon beast, the second son of the Zhao family held a banquet and invited me over, Lord Ye Qing just arrived with the front foot, and I came in with the back foot, just when I saw you coming up, I followed curiously, I have no malicious intent." ”

Ye Qing smiled at Wu Qian's frank explanation: "Deacon Wu Qian, you are so cute. ”

As a result, what Ye Qing didn't expect was that Wu Qian actually showed a hint of blushing in the posture of a little daughter.

Wu Qian looked at Wu Xiaolin, who was accompanying Ye Qing, and asked, "Lord Ye Qing, who is this sister?"

Wu Xiaolin smiled and said, "My name is Wu Xiaolin, and I am the younger sister of Brother Ye Qing. ”

"It turned out to be Lord Ye Qing's sister, it's so cute. Wu Qian looked at Wu Xiaolin with a smile, her immature face and delicate facial features are a stunning beauty, especially the pair of dimples and two little tiger teeth when she laughs, which are very cute.

She took out a packaged box from the ring and said with a smile: "There is no gift for the first meeting, so you don't have to accept this small welcome gift." ”

Wu Xiaolin glanced at Ye Qing, and from her point of view, knowing the deacon of Baibao Pavilion would be of great benefit to her accumulating contacts.

Ye Qing nodded and said, "Take it, you will meet again in the future." ”

Wu Xiaolin smiled happily: "Then I will thank Sister Wu Qian." ”

Wu Qian of the Hundred Treasure Pavilion, who can not know about the entire Haiyun Pass? Liu Jinhong and Nie Zhantian saw that Wu Qian was talking to Ye Qing, and they didn't even dare to disturb, they sat in their seats, uncomfortable, but they didn't know that Wu Qian didn't look at them at all.

Ye Qing just chatted with Wu Qian casually, but she personally accompanied Ye Qing all the way to the door of Tianxiang Restaurant.

When she was at the door, Wu Qian met the eldest son of the Wang family, Wang Xiaojing, who came down to greet her.

He smiled and looked at Ye Qing, who was talking and laughing with Wu Qian, he relied on the appearance of Yushu Linfeng in the love field like a fish in water, and read countless people, he saw Wu Qian's expression with a hint of concubine, and immediately became jealous of Ye Qing's concubine, and resented Ye Qing, but he suppressed the hostility in his heart, and said with a smile bathing in the spring breeze: "Sister Wu Qian, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I asked you to wait so long to come down to pick you up!"

Wu Qian smiled politely: "It's okay, I just arrived, Wang Gongzi can go up first, don't wait for me, I'll go up on my own later." ”

In the face of Wu Qian's refusal, Wang Xiaojing behaved very gentlemanly and said, "It's okay, for Wu Qian's sister, I'm willing to wait a little longer." ”

"This?" he showed enthusiasm to Ye Qing: "Sister Wu Qian, won't you introduce me to it?"

Ye Qing frowned slightly when he saw Wu Qian, and he was not interested in getting to know him, so he smiled and said, "Deacon Wu Qian, I'll go first, and I'll go over when Baibao Pavilion is free." ”

Wu Qian said with a smile: "As long as Lord Ye Qing is free at any time, you can come over at any time." ”

Ye Qing responded and took Wu Xiaolin and Wei Xingchen home.

This time, Ye Qing's ignorance and Wu Qian's snub made Wang Xiaojing feel insulted and hated Ye Qing.

Wu Qian came to Baibao Pavilion three years ago and served as a deacon, and she is familiar with the major giants of Haiyun Pass, and she is the goddess in the hearts of the young generation of Haiyun Pass, but because she is behind Baibao Pavilion, the young heroes of Haiyun Pass can't ask for her, and there is no way to use it.

Many young talents from Haiyunguan families have given up, but Wang Xiaojing still insists, in his heart, he has already regarded Wu Qian as his future woman, and he does not allow anyone to have anything to do with Wu Qian.

So, after the banquet, he went to check Ye Qing's bottom, and got it from Liu Jinhong and Nie Zhantian's mouths, Ye Qing is the founder of spirits, and now Ye Qing's bar in Haiyunguan is on fire is opened by him, the real behind-the-scenes boss of the Sifang Commercial Bank.

Coincidentally, the second son, Zhao Quan, had previously instructed him to get the secret recipe for brewing spirits, and the people he sent out sent back the news of the failure, and he sneered in his heart: "It just so happened that I taught Ye Qing and got the secret recipe for spirits together, killing two birds with one stone." ”
