Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

The Four Nations Banquet was a gastronomic feast that ended with Li Qi winning the game, but the food presented at this banquet was unforgettable, and its level exceeded that of previous Four Nations Banquets.

Song Huizong was in a good mood at this time, how could he reward Li Qi with such a name, of course, money and cloth were indispensable, and not only that, but even the other three imperial chefs also received some rewards.

After sending off the envoys, Gao Yu took this opportunity to promote Li Qi to the guard Ma Duzhi. This mention was very useful, and he really wanted to sit in this position.

But it's a pity that Wang Huang stood up to refute this proposal, on the grounds that the Four Kingdoms Banquet was a cooking competition and had nothing to do with politics, so the promotion of Li Qi would inevitably attract criticism. He also mentioned this again, saying that when Li Qi invented the new military uniform, he had promoted Li Qi to the palace marshal, but he was opposed by Li Bangyan and others.

Li Bangyan was also afraid that Wang Huang would suddenly turn the gun and build Li Qi as the palace marshal, so he had no choice but to stand up and oppose it.

Cai Jing has no authority, and he can't help Li Qi if he wants to, and Gao Yu himself has always advocated not interfering in the affairs of these two factions, and now seeing that the leaders on both sides have stood up to oppose it, he chose to retract his head without hesitation, in fact, he also knew that he wanted to promote Li Qi to the position of the capital, and the hope was quite slim, he did this just to give Song Huizong a wake-up call, and when he came, if Li Qi made great contributions again, I am afraid that he would not need to speak, and Song Huizong might also take the initiative to promote Li Qi.

In a few simple words, a political confrontation was completed, and the three were all ghosts.

Although Song Huizong is very fond of Li Qi, he still trusts Wang Huang very much, and after thinking about it, he rejected Gao Yu's construction.

Li Qi saw that there was no hope of promotion, except for a little disappointment in his heart, he didn't think too much, it was good to be promoted, if he couldn't be promoted, it didn't matter, he had such a good relationship with Gao Yu, and Hu You didn't dare to go against him, and Hu You was not interested in military training, it was all up to him.

Li Qi, Gao Yu, Bai Shizhong, and Cai Jing went out of the palace gate together, and went back to their homes.

"Deputy Marshal, can you lend me that golden knife?" Ma Qiao said.

Li Qi took out the golden knife and handed it over, saying, "Don't break it, otherwise it won't be worth much." ”

"This is my province."

Ma Qiao took the golden knife, took a closer look, and sighed: "This golden knife is really beautiful, and I don't know how much it costs." ”

Wu Xiaoliu said proudly: "That's nature, and what the emperor rewards must be the best." ”

Li Qi smiled: "Ma Qiao, you don't want to give your junior sister a golden knife, do you?" ”

Ma Qiao saw through Li Qi, laughed twice, did not answer, and returned the golden knife to Li Qi, whenever he saw something good, the first thing that came to mind was Lu Meimei, which had become an instinct of his, just like breathing, but he also knew that this was undoubtedly a luxury for him, not to mention the golden knife, even a high-quality kitchen knife, he couldn't afford to give it away......

Although Li Qi is very disgusted with Ma Qiao, he talks about Lu Meimei at every turn, but this is also what he admires about Ma Qiao the most, compared to Ma Qiao, he is really ashamed of himself.

"Let's go."

Li Qi and the two apprentices got into the carriage and rode towards the Qin Mansion in the night. Li Qi's master and apprentice Sanjin may be really tired, just drove out of the range of the palace, Sanjin staggered and fell asleep, and a loud cry came from the car.

I don't know how long it took, but I suddenly heard a "whoosh" sound, and after a few clicks, the carriage stopped.

β€œcāo! Why is there no shock absorber. ”

Due to the habit of xing, Li Qi's head hit the wooden board all of a sudden, and he grinned in pain, cursed, and said, "Arrived so soon?" ”

Ma Qiao's voice came from outside, saying, "Deputy Marshal, I'm looking for you." ”

"Who?" Li Qi rubbed his forehead.

"Guan Yan envoy, it's me, Yuan Hong."

This second goods? Li Qideng came to his senses, a flash of joy flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly got out of the car and arched his hand: "It turned out to be Yuan Yiguan, polite, polite." ”

"Don't dare, don't dare."

Yuan Hong returned the salute, but now he didn't dare to treat Li Qi like before, and said with a smile: "Envoy Guanyan, my family master wants to invite you over to talk about it." ”

"Oh? I wonder where Mr. Su Shilie is? ”

"It's in the carriage ahead." Yuan Hong pointed forward with his hand.

"Then bother Yuan Yiguan to introduce him."

"Where, where, please."

"Ma Qiao, you come with me, Liuzi, Dazhu, you are here watching the carriage."

"Oh. Brother Li, come back sooner. ”

Erjin followed Yuan Hong for a while, only to see a carriage parked on the side of the street, which was glowing with faint candlelight, and four black shadows stood around, standing still in the cold wind.

Yuan Yiguan stood beside the carriage and said respectfully: "The lord is here, the official Yan envoy is here." ”

"Envoy Guanyan, please come up quickly."

Li Qi and Yuan Hong went into the carriage one after another. When Fu Shilie Bohe saw Li Qi coming in, he smiled and said: "Congratulations to Guan Yan for winning the Golden Knife Chef King, he deserves his name, and Guan Yan's cooking skills are really eye-opening to me." ”

This is not pretentious, the political significance of Jin Guo's coming to participate in the Four Kingdoms Banquet this time is far greater than the victory or loss of the game, Bi Jing Jin Guo was not long after the founding of the country, he had to find an opportunity to express his savings to the surrounding neighbors.

"Where, where, Mr. Su Shilie has won the award, this is just some false name." Li Qi sat unceremoniously opposite Fu Shilie Bohe, and said with a grin: "Mr. Su Shilie is really good, and he is still here in the middle of the night to enjoy the scenery of my Bianjing." ”

Fu Shilie Bohe glanced out the window, only to see that he couldn't see his five fingers outside, smiled bitterly, and said: "The official Yan envoy said that he laughed, I will be rough in, how can I enjoy any scenery." ”

Li Qi smiled: "Then Mr. Su Shilie won't be waiting, right?" ”

This is really love to pretend to be confused, if I don't wait for you, it's so cold, and it's the middle of the night, I'm really full of food and supporting o. Su Shilie Bohe didn't want to go around the bend with Li Qi anymore, he had a headache, and Suo Xing said directly: "What Guan Yan said is right, I'm just waiting for you." ”

Li Qi pretended to be curious: "Oh? I don't know what Mr. Su Shilie is looking for me? ”

Su Shilie Bohe said with a smile: "Do you still remember that last time in the Prime Minister's Mansion, you mentioned to me that we would cooperate in opening a restaurant." ”

"Of course I do, but Mr. Fu Shilie said to think about it."

Su Shilie Bohe smiled slightly and said, "It turns out that I am still hesitating, but after seeing the cooking skills of the official Yan envoy today, I really can't think of any reason to refuse."

Li Qi's eyes flashed, and he smiled: "That's really good, I really don't know what to say about Mr. Su Shilie's wise decision except to say congratulations." Congratulations. ”

Are you praising me, or are you praising yourself? Su Shi Lie Bohe laughed for a while before he said, "I don't know how the official Yan envoy plans to cooperate?" ”

It's refreshing enough, I like it. Li Qizheng said: "It's very simple, as the general distributor of our Drunken Immortal Residence Jinguo, we will help you cultivate talents, teach you techniques, and sell ingredients to you, the price will be transferred according to the situation of your Jinguo, and in addition to you, we will never sell ingredients to other Jinguo, of course, you don't need to be like other chain stores, hang the name of our Drunken Immortal Residence." I have already drawn up a specific cooperation plan, by the way, you can wait a minute. ”

As he spoke, he groped around on his body, and suddenly smiled: "Fortunately, I still have it with me." As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his arms, handed it over, and said, "This is just a preliminary plan, you can please take a look at it first, if there is anything unsatisfactory, we can also negotiate." ”

Su Shilie Bohe was stunned for a moment, and said, "Did you expect that I would definitely promise you?" ”

Li Qi smiled and said, "As you just said, I really can't think of a reason for you to reject me. ”

Seeing Li Qi's face full of confidence, Su Shilie Bohe smiled, and said: "Interesting, interesting, Guan Yan's envoy is really different, okay, I will look at this plan carefully, and I will give you an answer tomorrow." ”

"Actually, you don't have to be in such a hurry."

"The official Yan envoy doesn't know, in three days, I will go back, but I will send in to discuss with you then. But before that, I want to do a business with the official envoy first. ”

No wonder you're in such a hurry, you have to go back. Li Qi was curious: "What business?" ”

"That's right, I want to buy some fire wine from your Drunken Immortal Residence first."

It's so good that I'm worried that I won't be able to sell it. Li Qiwei groaned and said: "I have to go back and discuss it with my proprietor, but there should be no problem, but I still have to check the quantity, but you can rest assured, with our white spoon relationship, no matter how much you buy, I will definitely give you a seven-fold discount, and I will also give you some other kinds of wine." ”

Su Shilie Bohe arched his hand and said: "Then Su Shilie is here to thank you in advance." ”

It's me who should thank you, your Jin Kingdom took advantage of the fire to rob and ask our Great Song for tribute, I don't get this money back, am I worthy of my tax-paying identity. Li Qi smiled: "Where, where, this is all as it should be, it is really our proprietor who loves money like life, otherwise it would be okay for me to give you this little wine money." ”

He knew very well that Li Qi was a big businessman, how could he believe his words, but he didn't pierce him, and laughed silently.

Erjin discussed the cooperation for a while, and Li Qi took his leave.

Back in the Qin Mansion, before he entered this door, he heard Aunt Chen shouting: "Husband enter, Master Li is back, Master Li is back." ”

There was a chaotic sound of footsteps inside.

I saw Qin Fujin, Wu Furong, Bai Qiannuo and Ji Hongnu all come out.

Li Qi smiled and said, "Yo, it's all here." ”

"Brother Li, congratulations."

"Golden Knife Chef King, hehe, this name is so nice, big brother, where is your golden knife? Bring it to me and see. ”

In the face of the crowd's congratulations, Li Qi was a little embarrassed and said, "How do you all know?" ”

Qin Fujin smiled and said, "Father Fang Cai has already been sent in to tell us the news." Let's go inside. ”

This old stuff. Li Qi smiled bitterly, and then went in with the crowd.

Came to the house, before Li Qi spoke, Wu Xiaoliu volunteered to stand up, and described the experience of the Four Kingdoms Banquet with them carefully, and when the public heard Li Qi's hand injury, they couldn't help but show worried expressions, and later heard Li Qi's "Ri Moon Fights for Glory, Swallows Mountains and Rivers" shines, and they are all very excited, laughing constantly, and enjoying themselves.

Li Qi also shook his head with a smile, perhaps compared to winning the Four Kingdoms Banquet and receiving the big business just now, this moment of warmth is what he wants most.

Xiangguoji Temple.

Long Jiang had just come to the side gate of Xiangguo Temple with a lonely expression, when suddenly a woman walked up and asked, "How is it?" There was a hint of nervousness in his voice.

Long Jiang glanced at the woman, sighed, and said, "You wonβ€”but I lost." ”
