At this moment, in the entire green building, the guests and prostitutes ran outside, and in the hall, the fire was everywhere, and the fire gradually increased.

The second master and his subordinates desperately put out the fire, but Chen Xiao and the others slipped away directly, and after running away, several people laughed and dripped.

However, after reacting, Li Shi said: "Brothers, are we guilty of arson now?" ”

The fat man didn't care and said: "What are you afraid of, everyone is a showman, what can you do to us?" It's nothing more than losing money. ”

When it came to losing money, his face changed: "It's over, it's impulsive......"

Chen Xiao said: "This matter started because of me, and I will pay for the loss." Besides, he is a brothel, and he wants to rob the people's daughters, and the responsibility is even greater, I don't believe he dares to report to the official. ”

"That's right!" The fat man nodded.

"No, I'm tired, I'm going back to rest, Brother Chen, where do you live?" Li Shi asked.

"We live in a restaurant next to the Gongyuan, so it's easier to take the exam!" The fat man said.

So, everyone said goodbye to each other, Chen Xiao, the fat man and Long Jiuling went back to the restaurant.

After this incident passed, that night, in the palace, the emperor listened to the report of the commander of the Praetorian Guard, and was angry at first, but then laughed.

"Hehe, this Chen Xiao, a little bold!"

"Your Majesty, do you want to take the Ninth Princess back to the palace? She's out there, and she's in a lot of danger. The Janissary Commander said.

The emperor frowned: "Then what is the use of you Praetorian Guards?" ”

The commander of the Praetorian Guard was speechless and did not dare to say more.

……

The next day, as soon as Chen Xiao, Long Jiuling and the fat man came out of the restaurant, they were blocked by the angry second master with a few people.

Chen Xiao was not afraid of him, and sneered and said, "What do you want to do again?" On the street, you can't rob people? ”

"Boy, although my Qinglou has been saved, many things in it have been burned, it is a mess, the prostitutes have also run away, and the business has not been done in the future, what do you say?" The second master gritted his teeth and said.

Chen Xiao nodded: "It means that the entire building has not been burned yet?" What to do? Shall I order it again? ”

The second master's face trembled: "You...... If you kid don't give me a satisfactory solution, I won't give up! ”

Chen Xiao snorted and said, "I'm crazy, don't talk about arson, I'll do everything, you'd better not stimulate me." ”

The second master really didn't dare to force Chen Xiao to be anxious, so he said a few words yesterday, yes, the Qinglou is gone.

"You...... You have made my business unbearable, and I have suffered a lot of losses, no matter what, you have to compensate! The second master said.

"So what if I don't pay it?" Chen Xiao said.

The second master's eyes were cold: "Then I will always look for opportunities to kill you!" ”

Chen Xiao frowned, if this is the case, it is really not good.

So he asked, "How much do you want me to pay?" ”

"Everything inside is burned, and the prostitutes are gone, not to mention...... 10,000 taels of silver! The second master spoke.

Chen Xiao's face changed: "Why don't you go and rob it?" ”

"That's a green building, 10,000 taels are too much?" The second master was also angry.

Chen Xiao took a deep breath and said, "At most, one hundred taels." ”

"You...... My Qinglou will not do business in the future, you give me a hundred taels? There's a fart! The second master shouted angrily.

Chen Xiao said: "It means that your building is of no use to you?" ”

"Or else? A lot of things in it have been burned, the prostitutes have run away, and I don't have enough money, do you think I can get back on it? The second master said.

Chen Xiao's eyes rolled: "Otherwise, 10,000 taels of silver, you give me that building!" ”

The second master was stunned for a moment, and thought about it carefully, the building was bought for thousands of taels of silver, but now except for one building, the layout inside has been burned, and he wants to renovate it, and he has a lot of silver, and he has no money, so he ...... It seems that it is really useless to keep it.

On one side is a meaningless building, and on the other side is 10,000 taels of silver.

He made his choice: "Deal!" ”

Chen Xiao didn't have 10,000 taels of silver on his body, only a few thousand taels of silver tickets, so he looked at the fat man.

The fat man took two steps back: "I'm going to study......"

However, under Chen Xiao's stubborn stalking, the fat man wiped his tears, took out a few thousand taels of silver from his body, and made up 10,000 taels with Chen Xiao.

Seeing this scene, the second master was stunned, what is the identity of these two young people? A few thousand taels of silver each carry? Such a tyrant?

When the silver arrived, the second master also took them to the Qinglou to get the deed, went to the rainproof registration office of the household department, and registered the Qinglou building in Chen Xiao's name.

Returning to the Qinglou, looking at the burned mess in the hall on the first floor, the fat man wiped his eyes that had not dried his tears and said:

"Brother Chen, what do you have to buy here......

"Fatty, this money, I have to pay the second master for everything, we lost the money, and we asked for a building, and we made it!" Chen Xiao said.

"What can you do with the building?" The fat man said.

Chen Xiao shook his head: "Do business?" ”

"You're going to open a brothel?" The fat man asked.

Long Jiuling glared at Chen Xiao with ill will.

Chen Xiao rolled his eyes: "That's not it, I'm going to open a restaurant." ”

"Do you think the restaurant is so easy to open?" The fat man rolled his eyes this time.

Chen Xiao said: "It is certainly not easy to open normally, but Lao Tzu is not an ordinary person, as a qualified traverser, if you don't understand the winemaking, how can you be embarrassed to cross?" ”

"Huh?"

The fat man and Long Jiuling were puzzled.

Chen Xiao smiled: "Fatty, you pay some more money and ask someone to clean up the restaurant, and I, go and brew a kind of wine that no one has ever drunk, when the time comes, we will definitely have a lot of money!" ”

The fat man was suspicious and said, "It's going to cost you more money......"

"Believe me, your efforts today will bring you a hundredfold return, we have known each other for so long, do you think that I, Chen Xiao, am a person who will make myself suffer?"

"Makes sense......" The fat man who was successfully brainwashed agreed.

So, in the next few days, the fat man paid for the building to be cleaned and renovated.

Chen Xiao is studying winemaking.

Before the crossing, there was winemaking next door to his house, so he knew the general process, and some of the winemaking tools and processes in this world were basically the same.

However, some processes are not as good as modern ones, especially distillation techniques.

In ancient times, it was basically grain fermentation to make rice wine, and the degree was very low, not more than 20 degrees.

In this brewing technology, adding a distillation technology can improve the purity of the liquor, and it will become liquor.

This is also why ancient liquor is more turbid, while modern liquor is clear and bright, because of the more distillation technology.

In short, Chen Xiao was very clear about the process of making wine, so he immediately went to buy glutinous rice, koji and various tools, and began to tinker in the building he had just bought for several days.

After making rice wine, it was distilled several times to get a lot of liquor.

He tasted it, yes, it tasted like that.

Chen Xiao was excited, but he was worried, such a strong liquor, would these ancients who were used to drinking low degrees like to drink it?

"If you don't like it, you have to find a way to make them like it, otherwise how can Lao Tzu make money......"
