Chapter 63: Xianyun Tower
After burning his feet and eating a little lunch, Gao Yuan comfortably climbed into the bed, ready to make up for sleep, but Lu Hong was worried about meeting with Zhang Junbao, the eldest son of Taishou, and he was very worried, half lying on the bed, but he couldn't sleep, after seeing Gao Yuan covered in the quilt, he had made a slight snoring sound in a moment, and couldn't help shaking his head and smiling bitterly, in the end, he was a young man, his heart was wide, unlike his own gains and losses, after all, he was old, and he didn't have the momentum of a young man.
Gao Yuan slept really comfortably this night, from Fufeng to the county in these hurried days, it was too hard, and the conversation with Zhang Shouyue for an hour in the morning also made him feel a little tired, although he didn't do anything deliberately, but Zhang Shouyue gave Gao Yuan great pressure, every time he said a word, he would first turn a few times in his mind, Zhang Shouyue was not Lu Hong, nor Wu Kai.
Turned over, stretched a big waist, and sat up from the bed, "Uncle, you have been sitting here like this, and you haven't slept for a while?" From the time Gao Yuan fell asleep to the time he woke up, Lu Hong actually maintained his previous posture.
"I'm too old to sleep!" Lu Hong smiled and said, "You slept so deeply this night. You see, it's getting dark, and it's going to be on soon!"
Turning over and getting out of bed, Gao Yuan moved his body, "I'm really tired these days."
"Gao Yuan, Taishou said to let the eldest prince talk to us, why is it this time, there is no news yet?" Lu Hong looked out the window, the sky was getting darker.
walked to the table, poured a glass of cold water, and drank it with a grunt, "When talking about business, you have to be reserved, take some shelves, you can't seem to ask for us, but we have to ask for them, which is understandable."
"What do you say?"
"It's just to make us feel that they don't particularly care about this matter, in order to gain greater interests in the subsequent negotiations, but in this way, there is a bit of a desire to cover up, this eldest prince only knows one thing, but not the other!" Gao Yuan smiled, "What is the situation in Liaoxi, we know it clearly, we can also guess how much income Lord Zhang has a year, an income of more than 100,000 yuan a year, and can raise thousands of more troops, how can they not be tempted, in order to get more, make this cold look, but don't want to be even more timid. Uncle, you said that this eldest prince is resourceful and decisive, I think it is an exaggeration, right?"
"Gao Yuan, you are too arbitrary, you know when you see this person, although Zhang Junbao is not as good as Taishou, he is also an extremely powerful character."
Gao Yuan nodded, "It's better to see than to hear!" Walking to the window, pushing open the window, someone has already lit the lights in the distance, and there is a hazy layer of haze in the air, which makes these lights look misty and unreal.
"It's almost time, it's time to go out now, it's time for dinner!"
As soon as the words fell, there was a knock on the door, Gao Yuan smiled proudly at Lu Hong, walked through and opened the door, outside the door, a middle-aged man in a moon-white robe smiled and bowed down: "Dare to ask if it is the county lieutenant of Fufeng County and Gao Bing Cao?"
"We are." Gao Yuan said, "The eldest prince asked you to come?"
"Gao Bing Cao, in Xia Gao Songtao, the eldest prince listens to it, it is the eldest prince who asked me to greet the two distinguished guests, and the eldest prince is waiting for the two masters in Xianyun Tower."
"Xianyun Building?" Gao Yuan and Lu Hong glanced at each other, they were both surprised, how could the other party choose this place?
Xianyun Building, taken from the meaning of Xianyun Wild Crane, but the Xianyun Building of Liaoxi County is not located in a secluded place, but is located in the most prosperous street of Liaoxi City, although the name of the building, but it has nothing to do with the building, Wu's heavy money to acquire this building is located in the downtown between a large house of five in and five out, covering an area of dozens of acres, after careful decoration in a month ago grand launch, although the opening is short, but in Liaoxi County has been famous.
There is no other reason, that is, because Xianyunlou has to be the most haode.
They spent a lot of money to pry away the most haode kabuki, luthiers, and dancers from Liaoxi County, and their generosity shocked the entire Liaoxi City, so unscrupulously broke the rules of Liaoxi City, and broke the balance of Liaoxi City, how could they not be famous?
Shocked and angry, many people walked into Xianyunlou and wanted to check out one, but what shocked them even more was that Xianyunlou was expensive, that is, a bowl of clear soup that can be given away for nothing in a roadside restaurant, and it was sold for 120 wen in it, which could buy dozens of catties of food. You don't even need any additional services there, just a simple light meal, and you can't get out without a dollar or two.
If there is anything commendable about Xianyunlou, it is his wine, all kinds of wine that has never been seen in the county of Liaoxi, and the wine that is packed in a variety of carefully fired vessels of different shapes, although it is ridiculously expensive, but it is indeed like the elixir that comes from nine days away, after drinking once, the wine that has been drunk before is as light as boiling water, and it is as muddy as mud soup, not to mention that the appearance of the clear and cold spring alone can make people breathtaking, not to mention that the mellow fragrance that wafts all over the room as soon as the altar is opened, it is difficult for people who love wine to go.
There is no shortage of rich people in Liaoxi City, Xianyunlou has not yet opened, it has been shocked Liaoxi City, once opened, immediately there will be a surplus of customers, a month later, it has been firmly established in the county town of Liaoning, and then the perfect service in Xianyunlou has won them an excellent reputation.
Expensive, there is also a reason for expensive. What's more, the high cost here also blocks the vast majority of people in Liaoxi County, who are qualified to enter and exit here, in Liaoxi City, they are either rich or expensive, and ordinary people are not qualified to step into the door of Xianyunlou at all, because if you go in, it is very likely that you will not be able to pay the bill.
This point is also quite popular with the rich and noble families in Liaoxi County, and the banquet and drink in Xianyunlou have faintly become a symbol of identity and power.
As Gao Songtao stepped into the gate of Xianyun Building, passed through the winding path flower workshop, the covered bridge and the river, and stopped in a courtyard in the center of Xianyun Building, there are only four private rooms in the whole courtyard, which is the most luxurious place in Xianyun Building.
Located due east, Izumo Xuan is the place where Zhang Junbao and Gao Yuan Luhong met.
"Please, two!" Pushing open the door of Izumo Xuan's room, Gao Songtao sat down with a gesture of please.
As soon as the door opened, the people in the room had already stood up, strode out towards the two of them, and said with fists clenched as they walked: "Uncle Lu, Brother Gao Shi, please come in quickly."
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be!" Lu Hong bent down to the visitor with some trepidation and said, "How can Lu Hong, dare to be called the eldest prince?"
This is Zhang Junbao, standing behind Lu Hong, Gao Yuan carefully looked at the future successor of Liaoxi County, dressed in a spotless white robe, full of black hair tied with a wooden crown, the beard on his lips was also neatly trimmed, and his face was about six or seven similar to Zhang Shouyue's, but it looked much more elegant, and it was difficult to see Zhang Shouyue's murderous aura inadvertently flashing in his eyes. The whole person looks extremely spiritual, and this voice Uncle Lu and Brother Gao Shi shouted, but the relationship between the three of them has been invisibly brought a lot closer.
Behind him, Gao Songtao had closed the door silently.
"Deserved, deserved!" Zhang Junbao daxiao, although he said that he deserved it, but there was no respect for the junior to the senior in his eyes, but, Gao Yuan thought about it, yes, it should be a grace, that's how it feels." There are so many subordinates under my father's command, but Uncle Lu is the only one who can think so much about my father. Come, Uncle Lu, Brother Gao Shi, please take a seat!" Zhang Junbao pointed to the room freely, "The wine and food have been prepared, and the two distinguished guests are ready to be seated."
The delicate small square table is covered with embroidered brocade, beautiful and beautiful, and the wine and food have been placed on it, although it has been repeatedly conceded, Lu Hong still does not dare to sit on the top, zuihou is still Zhang Junbao sat in the chief, Lu Hong and Gao Yuan accompanied each other.
"Uncle Lu, Brother Gao Shi, do you know how much this table of wine and food costs?" Zhang Junbao smiled at the two.
After glancing at it, Gao Yuan smiled and said, "If you count the wine, I'm only afraid of going up and down twenty."
Previously, when Fufeng, Gao Yuan and Wu Kai were discussing the matter of Xianyunlou, Lu Hong was bored when he heard it, he just cared about drinking, he didn't listen carefully, he just knew that it was very expensive, but he didn't expect such an expensive method, Zhang Junbao asked, he also estimated it, at most it was only one or two times the money, which was already very expensive in his heart, at this time, listening to Gao Yuanyi, he almost fell to the ground, this is to open a restaurant to make money, this is similar to robbing money.
"Why does Senior Brother know so clearly?" Zhang Junbao looked at Gao Yuan in some surprise.
"Because I came up with this idea, what names these dishes should be and what prices they wanted, they were all decided after I discussed with Lord Wu and the two of them overnight, so I naturally know it clearly." Gao Yuan looked at Zhang Junbao.
"Why is it so expensive?" Zhang Junbao shook his head and said: "If you really talk about it, except for the wine, there is nothing else to praise in Xianyun Building, the most haode dancers, kabukis, and piano masters in Liaoxi City, if they are placed in Yuyang and Jicheng, it is nothing. Can you really make money from this?"
"Because there are many people in this world who only buy the expensive ones and don't buy the right ones." Gao Yuan said with a smile: "What they want is this feeling of superiority, since they have this demand, then they will naturally make money. If Xianyunlou wants to do it, we will do the most haode, even if we do Jicheng and Yuyang in the future, the most haode thing there, of course we have to pry it in."
"Brother Gao Shi, do you know that your method has angered many people, do you know that today I Weishenme want to book this meeting here, because someone would have come here today to make trouble, but it was only because I came that it stopped, but maybe tomorrow, maybe the day after tomorrow, they will come again, Brother Gao Shi, you have smashed many people's jobs!" Zhang Junbao smiled and said.
"Therefore, Xianyunlou needs the help of the eldest prince! If this Xianyun Building is the property of the eldest prince, will anyone dare to make trouble?" Gao Yuan said, "It seems that the fellow Daoists in Liaoxi City have really put a lot of effort into figuring out the ins and outs of Xianyun Tower so quickly."
"Cutting off people's money, this is a big enemy." Zhang Junbao shook his hand gently, "Yicheng shares, it's not worth me to take such a big risk."
Straight to the point, without dragging the mud and water at all, Gao Yuan became interested in this Zhang Junbao at once, it seems that his previous estimate was wrong.
