Chapter 379: Second Master Shi
The boss was overjoyed, "Thank you, Childe, today's meal, I am invited, and please don't be polite." ”
The boy didn't shirk, and said with a smile: "Yes." With that, he raised his head and looked at the handsome scholar beside the boss, "This is ......."
"This is the second master of Honglai Casino," the boss introduced.
Shi Honglin opened the fan with a "swish", a faint smile appeared on Junbai's face, and he nodded lightly, which was regarded as a greeting.
"I don't know Second Master Shi, do you have any advice?" The boy looked at Shi Honglin's sour expression, raised his eyebrows and asked.
Shi Honglin was slightly stunned, and then realized that he was now in someone's private room, he cleared his throat, put away the folding fan again, and slapped his palm again and again, and said: "It's nothing, but this boss said that the aroma here is special, so let's take a look." ”
The boy stroked lightly, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in his eyes, "I see, I wonder if Second Master Shi is interested in dining together?" ”
"Okay." Shi Honglin immediately nodded and said, generally speaking, he would not agree, but well, today's aroma is too tempting, and he has always liked new things, so he is naturally unwilling to give up.
"In this way, I will retire first," the boss of Tianxiangju said knowingly: "The tired son will give you a lesson or two after eating." ”
"Okay." The boy nodded, and the boss of Tianxiangju turned around and left, telling the guy to be good and not offended.
"Second Master Shi, please try it and see how it tastes."
"Okay, good," Shi Honglin took a chopstick mutton and tasted it, and suddenly felt that his eyes were bright, and the unprecedented umami spread in his mouth, coupled with the unique dipping sauce, the aroma of various different layers jumped on the tip of the tongue, which made people's hearts intoxicated.
The so-called food can really make people feel happy from the heart out.
The sourness on Shi Honglin's face also slowly receded, revealing a little smile, "Two, this taste is really different from the pot in Ben Gongzi's house, it can't be compared, the two of you can match it so deliciously, I don't know...... What do you do for a living? ”
The short boy smiled, arched, and pointed to the cold-faced boy next to him and said: "This is the elder brother in Xia, his name is Ning Xi, in Xia Ningyu, our two brothers are new to the imperial capital, thinking that the imperial capital is prosperous and prosperous, and they want to do some small business." ”
"Oh?" Second Master Shi's face was happy, "Have you two thought of what business you want to do?" ”
"No," Ning Yu shook his head, his face a little sad, "I'm thinking about it, I don't have a clue yet." ”
"The two of you have good skills," Shi Honglin's chopsticks pointed to the crystal copper pot, which was full of aroma and the meat and vegetables were tumbling, "It's better to be a certain Shi, how about we work together to open a restaurant?" It must be the first in this imperial capital. ”
Ning Yu smiled slightly, but secretly scolded in his heart, if you really want to do the business of a restaurant, what do you have to do? It's whimsical.
Seeing that the other party only smiled and didn't answer, Shi Honglin was also a little embarrassed, he also knew that indeed, if the other party wanted to open a restaurant, then he could be regarded as dispensable, but thinking about his current situation, he couldn't help but thicken his face by three points.
"Two," Shi Honglin smiled, wiped the sesame sauce on the corner of his mouth and said: "Don't hide it from the two, the next is the second master of Honglai Casino, Fang Honglai is the founder of Honglai Casino, that is my dear eldest brother." ”
As soon as Ning Yu heard him say "kissing big brother", a mouthful of soup almost squirted out of his mouth, was this a soul possessed by the Taobao shopkeeper?
Shi Honglin said to himself: "It's a pity...... The eldest brother went early, and he was originally tough, who ......knows" He sighed, lowered his eyelids and said, "I actually got sick and went." This gambling house is a big family, inside and out, it's not easy......"
Ning Yu quickly glanced at Ning Xi, huh? Why does this tone sound like he's in charge? However, based on observations, it seems that this is not the case.
Seeing this, Ning Yu comforted: "Yes, Uncle Shi died young, and the second master should bear this burden, there are dozens of people here and outside, and they can point to the second master to eat." We've heard that this Honglai gambling house was once the largest gambling house in the imperial capital. ”
The timely compliment made Shi Honglin raise his head, he took a glass of wine and poured it, and couldn't help sighing: "Good wine!" ”
Ning Xi sneered in his heart, can it be bad? This is the cellar that this king has treasured for several years, and this cup is several taels of silver.
Ning Yu patted his hand lightly below, signaling him not to lose a big deal because of a small thing, isn't it just a glass of wine...... She was really worried that this master would be too arrogant to drink, and she wouldn't drink this wine again.
"You've heard about that, too?" Shi Honglin took advantage of the wine and said: "Other industries dare not say, when it comes to gambling houses, we Honglai call the second, no one dares to call the first!" ”
Ning Yu's eyes widened, with a look of envy, "Really? But in my heart, I was sneering, was that once? Do you have intermittent deafness? Didn't hear me say "ever"?
Shi Honglin waved his hand, and his pride instantly soared, "That's natural, when it comes to my eldest brother Shi Honglai, no one doesn't call Uncle Shi, that's true admiration!" At the beginning, Honglai Gambling House opened thirteen branches in one go, and the momentum was ......"
He patted his chest, "The rest of the small gambling houses have no room to survive at all, and they are about to be squeezed and can't do it anymore." ”
Ning Yu pushed the flask in front of him, "What happened later?" ”
Shi Honglin poured himself a drink, smiled bitterly and said, "Later? Later, the eldest brother went, and the rest of the people didn't do their jobs, they just knew how to compete for the position of being the head of the family! Hmph......"
He drank another glass of wine, his face already flushed slightly.
Ning Xi didn't speak, looked at him coldly, and quietly dragged the wine jug back, this is milk white, made of high-quality milk Ying, nine steamed and nine dry, its process is quite complicated, and it has been sealed for many years, the wine is fragrant, but the strength is very great, three glasses of general wine is enough, and more...... It's going to be a puddle of mud.
"How can those people fight with the second master? It's really overwhelming! Ning Yu laughed, "The second master is a talent, and he must have a strange trick." ”
"Strange tricks?!" Shi Honglin was stunned, then grinned, his eyes were slightly straight, and he raised a finger and smiled: "Yes, strange move!" I've got a trick! Ha ha! ”
Ning Yu scolded in her heart, yes, your trick is to sleep with your sister-in-law.
"I heard that the second master is also quite capable, so he must have made trouble for the second master, right?" Ning Yu asked with a smile.
"Him?" Shi Honglin's head shook slightly, "He's just a rough man, a fool who can only use brute force!" ”
He staggered to his feet, burped a wine, and the steaming heat reflected his eyes in a blur, "The half of the thing he's been looking for, haha, it's right here!" He has been looking for so long, and he still wants to send someone to assassinate Wu Qingqing, ha, he killed Wu Qingqing for nothing, and he got half of it. ”
He waved his hand again and said, "Wu Qingqing, that woman...... I still think how shrewd she is, hmph, isn't she just thinking about testing the second master and wanting to get that thing? ”
"Second Master...... I just don't give it to them! With that, he shook his body and sat down again.
Ning Xi listened to what he said, hooked his fingers, and gently wrote two words in Ning Yu's hand: "Token." ”
Immediately, Ning Yu understood that the thing referred to here should be a physical evidence of who took over the Honglai Gambling House, which was similar to the emperor's jade seal.
Ning Yu smiled, took out a moon-white brocade handkerchief in his hand and wiped it at the corner of his mouth, and then put his hand on the window.
This private room faces the street, and under the window is the bustling street market, and there is a tea stall on the street opposite Tianxiangju, where several people are drinking tea.
When one of them saw the gently fluttering brocade hand, he immediately threw away the melon seeds in his hand and clapped his hands lightly.
Shi Honglai ate a lot of wine, and it was when he was excited, Ning Xi's face was slightly gloomy, and Ning Yu smiled slightly, looking full of interest.
Suddenly, Ning Yu turned his head and glanced out the window, then froze.
Shi Honglin was talking about it, looking at him like this, he was puzzled, and he also leaned over to look, and he was stunned when he saw it.
I saw a woman coming from the other side of the street, dressed in a light pink gauze dress, like a delicate peach blossom, the black hair was just gently pulled, the jade hairpin was obliquely inserted, the posture was charming but not pretentious, a line of movement, a smile and a smile, all of them were amorous.
Suddenly, the surroundings were stunned, and all of them lost their color in an instant, and only the delicate peach blossom color remained between heaven and earth.
Shi Honglin was stunned, and then his eyes seemed to be lit by the pink, he grabbed the fan, opened it all at once, and regained the sour appearance of that faction, and hurriedly said goodbye to Ning Yu and Ning Xi, "Two, I will say goodbye to you next day, and we will meet another day." ”
After that, he disappeared into a shadow.
The corners of Ning Xi's mouth flashed with a sarcastic smile, and his eyes were full of coldness, but Ning Yu suddenly turned his head to stare at him, and said viciously: "Just say that you are looking for a beautiful woman, where did you find one like this?" ”
She ...... Don't you think it's possible? Pick and choose the ugliest one, but it should be enough to deal with Shi Honglin, right? Ning Xi glanced downward.
She ...... Or the ugliest? "Ning Yu was almost grinding her teeth.
"yes," Ning Xi nodded.
"Leng Yixiu!" Rong Xi approached him and looked him directly into the eyes, his voice was low but his anger was obvious, "You tell me clearly, how much else are you hiding in a woman like this?" ”
"......" His Royal Highness King Ning finally understood that he was mistaken, he laughed dryly twice, and soothed: "Haha, this is not hidden by me, but there is a special person in charge of training, in case of emergency, you see, isn't it used today?" ”
"Hmph." Rong Xi saw that Shi Honglin's shadow had appeared below, and he was shaking a fan and following the woman's side.
