Chapter 269: Marriage

Li Yuan gave a thumbs up: "Good wine, good sprinkling, I have never drunk such a mellow wine, it can really be called immortal wine!" ”

He guessed: "Is the nephew planning to sell wine in Chang'an?" That's a lot of money! ”

"If you just sell alcohol, you won't make much money. I'm going to open a bar in Chang'an City. ”

Li Yuan couldn't understand the concept of a bar anyway, and he was confused.

Xia Yu said: "When the bar opened, Uncle Shi knew what was going on. ”

"Okay." No matter what Xia Yu did, what Li Yuan cared about most was his 10 million taels of silver.

Xia Yu took out a card, which was attached to the bar rewarded by the reader, and he introduced to Li Yuan: "My bar plans to implement a membership system, which is divided into four levels of members: bronze, silver, gold, and diamond, correspondingly, the higher the level, the rarer wine they can drink." The prices are ten taels, one hundred taels, one thousand taels, and ten thousand taels of silver. ”

"You're saying you're going to sell these cards to merchants. Will they want it? ”

Especially for diamond members, the price of a card is 10,000 taels of silver. A thousand, that's 10 million taels of silver, it's too much gold.

Xia Yu said: "Let's set the price like this first, and then adjust the price if it can't be sold." "He always does things conservatively.

When it was over, Xia Yu didn't forget to slap Li Yuan's ass, and handed the membership card in his hand to Li Yuan: "Uncle Shi, what I gave you is the Supreme Emperor Card, the only one to show your identity." ”

Li Yuan's heart was moved.

"This card allows you to drink every variety of alcohol in the bar."

The address of the bar has been chosen, located in Longting Street, the most prosperous street in the city, with a total of two floors. The light source inside is the most advanced nitrogen lamp, which does not need to be powered and emits its own light. Although it is far worse than modern bars, in Datang, it is the only one for scorpion rake. Xia Yu was very satisfied.

The next day, Li Yuan deliberately announced a major event, Xia Yu opened a bar on Longting Street, and the officials had to go to the party. Even the emperor personally advertised Xia Yu, which was unprecedented in ancient times.

The membership card was distributed to each minister, but Li Yuan did not send it to several ministers because he lost a few cards.

"Everyone did their best for Datang, but some ministers didn't do their best. Those ministers who didn't give them membership cards, you have to think about how you behave. Li Yuan pretended to be hypocritical.

Those ministers who did not issue membership cards trembled and frightened, and they must not let their colleagues find out that they did not have membership cards. Since Xia Yu sells membership cards, of course he has them there, so he took advantage of the night to visit Xia Yu to buy membership cards. Xia Yu immediately guessed their thoughts, and wondered: "Ladies and gentlemen, I only have a diamond membership card here." ”

At this time, these ministers had more money in their accounts, so they immediately bought it, for fear that they would not be able to buy it. As soon as they left, Xu Shiji came to visit Xia Yu again.

After sitting down, he was angry: "Xia Yu, you give me a comment, I was walking on the street today, and I didn't pay much attention to it at the time, so I touched a woman's hand." And guess what? ”

"This daughter's father found out who I was and said that I had ruined his daughter's name and had to ask me for compensation. I said, "How much silver do you want, and guess what?" ”

"What's wrong?" Xia Yu felt that things were not simple.

Xu Shiji slapped the table: "He has to ask me to marry their daughter." How unreasonable, how unreasonable! ”

Xia Yu laughed so hard that his stomach hurt, he knew that ancient women attached great importance to fame. It is recorded in the book that in ancient times, a woman was touched by a strange man and hanged herself in front of the man's door on the same day. This woman's father dared to make trouble in Xu Shiji's house, and he must be an important official in the court.

Those who dare to argue with Xu Shiji, only two or three, Xia Yu asked: "It won't be Du Ruhui, right?" ”

Xu Shiji's eyes were as big as copper bells: "How do you know it's Lao Du?" ”

Xia Yu smiled indifferently: "I guess." ”

"Hey, looking at you like that, I thought it was you and Du Ruhui who teamed up to calculate me."

Xia Yu pondered in his heart, Xu Shiji is not young, he is twenty-eight this year. If Du Ruhui's daughter has a good character, this is not a happy marriage.

So he asked tentatively, "Brother Xu, how does that woman look?" ”

Xu Shiji thought for a while: "The eyes are the eyes, and the nose is the nose, upright." ”

Xia Yu patted his chest: "Brother Xu, this matter is on me." I promise that Lao Du will not bother you. ”

"Brother Xia, I want to thank you as a brother, if you can help me solve this trouble, I will definitely invite you to have a good drink."

When Xu Shiji left, he didn't notice Xia Yu's expression.

The next day, Xia Yu personally went to visit Du Ruhui and specially brought a bottle of 80-year-old Lafite, which is worth 100,000 yuan in modern times. As the wine is drunk less and less, its value continues to rise.

Menzi came to report, Xia Yu came to visit, Du Ruhui personally greeted him, and when he saw Lafei carried by Xia Yu, he hurriedly grabbed it: "Xia Yu, you said that you came to visit me, why do you still want to mention gifts?" ”

Master Du, you look like you're rushing to put the wine in your arms. Xia Yu slandered.

Du Ruhui invited Xia Yu to the flower hall, and Xia Yu expressed the meaning: "Lord Du, I am not here for anything else, but for my eldest brother Xu Shiji." ”

Hearing Xu Shiji's name, Du Ruhui blew his beard and glared: "Xia Yu, Lao Du has only one request, unless Xu Shiji marries my daughter, otherwise you take the gift back!" ”

Du Ruhui just did what he said, pushed the 80-year-old Lafei to Xia Yu, picked up a straw rope, and walked out: "I will tell my daughter now that I want her to commit suicide to show her innocence!" ”

Don't look at Lao Du, who is only 1.6 meters long, and his temper is as hot as a barrel of explosives, the problem is that you are really sure that this straw rope can hang people.

Xia Yu didn't reveal it, and hurriedly grabbed him: "Du Gong, you want to go wrong." I came to speak for Brother Xu, who do you say Brother Xu is pulling on the street? just pulled your daughter's hand, this is the fate of heaven. It's just that you also know that Brother Xu is thin-skinned and can't say it directly, so he asked me to give him a look. ”

"What you said is true?" Lao Du didn't believe it, but when he went to Xu Shiji's house yesterday, the two of them also made a move. Xu Shiji is a benevolent and righteous gentleman, unwilling to use force, and the two are like ordinary people on the street beating each other. Speaking of which, he also took advantage of Xu Shiji and beat Xu Shiji into two panda eyes.

For this alone, Lao Du admires Xu Shiji in private, he is a gentleman.

"Lord Du, with my Xia Yu's reputation, can I still tell a lie?"
