"Zhixing, you're asking a mansion like ours?"

"Hmm."

How could Second Master Fei not know why Han Xiufeng asked this, and said with a wry smile: "There are many prefectures and county pavilions in the capital, but most of them are from Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Huguang, Anhui, and Shanxi. There is no one in our court, and there are only a few officials in Beijing, so we can't compare with others. ”

"What about the hotel, do we have a gang in Chongqing in the capital, do we have a hotel?"

"Not even more," Fei Erye took the tea from Pan Erduan, and said helplessly: "Although our Sichuan is a country of abundance, the wealth accounts for one-tenth of the Qing Dynasty, and it is praised by the imperial court as an undry source of wealth. But he has always been very rich, and he has hardly heard of any state or county where there are rich businessmen. Merchants in the province are active, but most of them are guests, and all the money has been earned by merchants in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Huguang, and Shanxi, let alone in the capital. ”

"Alas...... We Sichuan people are not good at doing business. Thinking of Ba County, which was about to become a gang of eight provinces, Han Xiufeng nodded disappointedly.

Qian Junchen raised his head and said: "There are not many businessmen in Sichuan, but it is not nothing. ”

Han Xiufeng subconsciously asked: "Master Qian, do we have any merchants in Sichuan in the capital?" ”

"Zhixing, can you stop shouting like this, not to mention that you are also an official, what kind of master am I now. If you can afford to look down on me Qian Junchen, we will be called brothers. ”

"Okay, I'll call Brother Qian in the future."

"Okay, let's get down to business," Qian Junchen looked up at Du San, and shook his head and said: "There are small wines and big wines in Luzhou and other places, from spring to autumn, and they are called small wines; Steamed steamed after the summer, it is called a big wine! The poet and inkman left poems praising wine, and Huang Tingjian said: Jiang'an has insufficient food, and Jiangyang has more wine. Yang Shen said: Jiangyang wine is ripe like a brocade, don't let anyone get drunk together, and said: Luzhou Longquan water, flowing out of a pool of moon. Put the cup lyrical, and the boat is fun. ”

The export is a chapter, and he is really knowledgeable, but it is a pity that he became an official but did not make any money.

Han Xiufeng sighed secretly and asked, "Brother Qian, do you mean that there are Sichuan villagers selling Luzhou wine in the capital?" ”

"Exactly," Qian Junchen took a sip of tea, and said with his eyebrows fluttering: "Last year's Spring Festival Provincial Pavilion group worship, what I drank was the old cellar of Luzhou 'Wen Yongsheng'. Second master, you also went that day, and you also drank. ”

"Come to think of it, there is such a thing, there seems to be some kind of allusion." Second Master Fei groaned.

"I remember this," Qian Junchen remembered the fine wine he drank during the group worship last year, and even said like a few family treasures: "This Luzhou Laojiao was not 'Wen Yongsheng', it was first a Shu-surnamed Wuju in the Shunzhi Dynasty, and when he led the troops in Luoyang, Shaanxi, he found that the local wine was delicious, so he explored the know-how of winemaking. Later, he returned to his hometown, put the local Wannian wine mother, koji medicine, and mud samples all on the bamboo basket, hired a local winemaker, and returned to his hometown in Luzhou together, and chose a muddy place suitable for making a wine cellar in the south of Luzhou City, and there happened to be a 'Longquan Well' nearby, the well water is clear and sweet, and the cellar mud complements each other, so he opened a winery and tried to make koji wine, which is the first winemaking workshop in Luzhou - Shu Juyuan! ”

When it came to martial arts, Du San became interested and couldn't help asking, "What happened later?" ”

"Under the painstaking management of the children of the Shu family, the name of 'Shu Juyuan' began to spread in our Sichuan and even Yunnan and Guizhou. It's a pity that when it came to the Yongzheng Dynasty, the children of the eighth generation of the Shu family were defeated, and they sold the cellar to another wine-making family in Luzhou-the Wen family, and 'Shu Juyuan' was renamed 'Wen Yongsheng'. The Wen family's descendants have developed secret recipes and painstakingly managed them, and the 'Wen Yongsheng' Laojiao has also become famous all over the world. ”

Han Xiufeng can drink some wine but is not hungry for wine, and he didn't want to find wine to drink when he inquired about this, so he stared at him and asked, "Brother Qian, so 'Wen Yongsheng' has a semicolon in the capital?" ”

"There is no semicolon, we were able to drink 'Wen Yongsheng's old cellar' last year because there was a child of the Wen family who wanted to open up sales in the capital, and I don't know whose way he went, so he actually sent his family's wine to the group banquet of our Sichuan Guild Hall."

"Do you know where he lives?" Han Xiufeng asked.

"I don't know, but it's not difficult to inquire, there is no Luzhou Hall in the capital, but there is a Luxian Hall, I want to know if he is still in the capital, I will go to the Luxian Hall tomorrow and ask."

"Brother Qian, apart from the Wen family in Luzhou, do you know anyone else who is doing business in the capital?"

"There is a businessman who does tung oil business, a native of Chengdu Prefecture, I can't remember what his surname is, but I know where he lives."

Second Master Fei couldn't help but ask: "How do you know, have you borrowed money from others?" ”

Qian Junchen was unhappy, and actually took the case: "Second master, I, Qian Junchen, am also a scholar no matter what I say, and I am still from the same Jinshi background." The incorruptible person is not subject to the food that comes to him, and even if he starves to death, he will not bow his head to a businessman and do this humiliating thing! ”

"Then you still borrow money from Yiliu."

"Ilgen is not a businessman, his father worked as an errand in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, his brother is a pen post of the Ministry of Rites, and he also donates a seven-grade top for his own children, and there is no shame in borrowing money from him."

Du San thought to himself, you are like this, and you still look down on businessmen, you really want to die to save face.

Han Xiufeng was thinking about how to earn back the more than forty taels of silver owed to the second master, and earn some living expenses by the way, and asked curiously: "Second master, what's the matter with the group worship?" ”

"Every year during the Spring Festival, the provincial halls have to hold banquets, and officials of all sizes in Beijing will participate. Not only can you talk about hometown friendship, not only have a banquet to eat, but also a drama to watch. Throughout the year, the day of the group worship is the most lively. Second Master Fei paused, and said with a smile: "Last year, during the group worship, Master Qian's poetry was very prosperous, and he also wrote a poem, which won a full house. ”

"Really?" Han Xiufeng asked with a smile.

This is the most proud thing of Qian Junchen, and he actually groaned with an intoxicated face: "The dust blockade key should be opened, and a hundred years of sorrow and sadness are secretly sad." The guild hall of the two dynasties rose and fell into disuse, and friends from all over the world came back. Wisdom opens the sad and happy road in the south of the city, and Huikai Jinggi floats and sinks. Looking back at the height of the building, who did the mulberry plant for back then! ”

Han Xiufeng can't recite poems, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't know how to appreciate, and arched his hand: "Good poetry!" Brother Qian, what a good poem! ”

"Let my brother see and smile, I drank a few more drinks that day, and I felt it."

"Good poems, good poems, Brother Qian, this year we will also hold a banquet in the Chongqing Hall, please make another poem at that time, and I will set up a stone monument for you after finishing it."

Without waiting for Qian Junchen to speak, Second Master Fei asked in surprise: "Our dilapidated guild hall also worships, Zhixing, aren't you joking?" ”

"Second master, I'm not joking." Han Xiufeng touched his chin and looked at everyone with a smile: "The New Year, it must be lively, I not only want to invite the two, not only to invite Master Ji and Master Wang, but also to invite Sichuan compatriots who do business in Beijing." I'm new to the city, and I'm not familiar with the place, so I have to ask you two to help me inquire, and I'll send invitations one by one after I hear about it. ”

"Zhixing, you're going to invite a businessman!" Second Master Fei looked incredulous.

"No matter what, they are all fellow villagers, how good it would be to invite them to come over and talk about the friendship of the villagers." Han Xiufeng looked at the mottled wall and said solemnly: "We won't invite in vain, and they won't come empty-handed, if we can invite more than a dozen or twenty Sichuan compatriots who are doing business in the capital, not only do you not have to worry about the cost of the museum, maybe you can also raise some money to renovate this courtyard." ”

Second Master Fei muttered: "If you really invite them, they may really be willing to pay, but it is insulting to Sven to do so, and it is not appropriate to do so." ”

"Second master, we are also a mansion here, but look at what it looks like, if you don't raise money to renovate, it will collapse. You are always the first minister, I am the second, if the guild hall is abandoned in our hands like this, is it worthy of the predecessors who advocated the construction of the guild hall? ”

Han Xiufeng looked up at the regulations posted on the wall, and then said, "I am in a hurry to follow the power, and I can't take care of it so much." I'll come to Zhang Luo about the banquet, Brother Qian, please help me find out how many Sichuan villagers are doing business in Beijing these days, what kind of business they do, and where they live. Second master, Master Ji can only rely on you to be old, no matter what, you have to invite him, he can't do it if he doesn't come. ”

Hanlin is a Wenqu star, who doesn't want to eat with Master Hanlin.

How could Second Master Fei not know what Han Xiufeng was doing, and said with a bitter face: "Zhixing, I know that you are for the guild hall, and I am not afraid of being ashamed of being ashamed of myself when I am so old, but Master Ji is different from you and me, think about it, how can he sit with a group of businessmen with such a noble status and call him a brother and sister, and drink and talk happily." ”

"Second master, I don't know about others, you know it, you must have a way to convince Master Ji."

"Okay, I'll try, I can't help it if he doesn't come."

"Okay, let's try to ask first." Han Xiufeng smiled, turned around and asked, "Master Qian, is there no problem with you here?" ”

Qian Junchen thought for a while, and said again: "Zhixing, you know the situation of the foolish brother, I can help you inquire, and I can also help you greet those businessmen on the day of the group worship, I just want to discuss something with you." ”

"What's the matter, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

"If you can raise money, can you lend me four hundred taels first? I'll pay it back when I have the money, and then you can renovate the hall when I pay it back." ”
