Chapter Twenty-Eight: Poetry and Books Are Absolutely White, Everyone Meets a Noble Person in a Restaurant
The shopkeeper of Wangjinglou is surnamed Cui, a middle-aged man in his thirties, this person has an ordinary appearance, but an extraordinary temperament, giving people the feeling that he is not a businessman, but a Confucian student.
Later, Bai Fan learned that this Wangjing Tower was originally the property of the Cui family in Qinghe, and the shopkeeper was also a side of the Cui family, and the Cui family's famous family heirloom of poetry and books, although it was only a shopkeeper, it was not comparable to others!
"I don't know what a few distinguished guests have to do with despicable people?" The shopkeeper asked.
Bai Fan returned the salute, "A few people want to go up to the third floor of the Wangjing Tower to eat, I heard that there is a rule on the third floor that you don't go upstairs, does it mean that if I can compose a poem, I can go up and eat for free?" ”
Li Chunfeng was speechless, didn't Uncle Xiao forget it, I explained to you just now, I have to give money after composing poems!
The shopkeeper replied, "Well, no!" The guest misunderstood, the rules of the watchtower, the guest left the talent of the work to be eligible to go to the third floor, there is no free statement, the wine and food are still charged! I think it's a rumor that misleads the guests! ”
Bai Fan instantly changed color when he heard this, and said loudly: "Oh? Nephew, that's not the case! Hmph, I thought that the lookout tower was an elegant place, but it turned out to be a filthy place full of copper odor!
Why don't you go upstairs? It's simply unreasonable, for an uncle's poems to be worth a thousand gold will be robbed of the head, here even have to covet money, this restaurant is really unbearable, according to the uncle, it is really a black shop!
Let's go, see the good place you are looking for, and the Sven of the reader has been tainted in vain! ”
Li Chunfeng was a little confused for a while, and several apprentices were also confused, so they followed Bai Fan to go out.
The shopkeeper here can't bear to hear it, you guy, come here and misunderstand the rules, it doesn't matter if you want to go up to eat and make money or not, but you're good, and you dare to slander the restaurant? Or say it's a black shop? What a fanatic!
"Wait! This son, Wangjinglou has also been an old shop for many years, and the rules have always been like this, how can you be slandered by you out of thin air, hum, isn't it an incompetent fanatic, deliberately causing trouble here? Or do you have no money and want to eat and drink? ”
At this time, there were already many onlookers, commenting and pointing fingers!
Bai Fan stopped and turned around, "Hahahaha!" It's really ridiculous, Huaimo, take out the money on your body and let him see it! ”
A few gold ingots appeared, and the onlookers in the restaurant were suddenly speechless!
"See? It's not that I can't afford to eat because I don't have money, but I think that a wine and dinner on the third floor of your Wangjing Tower is not worth a pair of my poems, and you want to let me leave poems here? Hehe, it's not okay to invite me to eat for free, let alone dare to be greedy for money again? ”
You! Shopkeeper Cui didn't expect this person to be so arrogant at such a young age?
Other onlookers also coaxed!
"Good! Since Childe so threatened, I can't have a number of rudeness in the Lookout, and I promise here that if Childe can really come up with a peerless masterpiece, then Childe is the guest of honor in the Lookout, and from now on, all the expenses of Childe in the Lookout Tower are free!
I just don't know if what Childe said is true or false? Shopkeeper Cui gritted his teeth and said loudly.
Bai Fan smiled, he smiled very proudly, he finally took the bait, and he didn't have to spend money to eat in the future!
"Of course it's true, I don't think the shopkeeper has such courage? If you don't believe it, can you and I make up a statement? Bai Fan said.
"There is no need to do this, there are all of you present here to testify, as long as the son is talented, this covenant will take effect immediately! But if you're a liar, hmph, you'll have to pay for it! ”
Good! Readily! Pen and ink waiting!
Pushing away the good rice paper sent by the shopkeeper, Bai Fan held a large wolf in his hand, and went straight to the east wall of the first floor of the restaurant!
If the sky does not love wine, the wine star is not in the sky.
If the earth does not love wine, there shall be no fountain of wine on the earth.
Heaven and earth love wine, and love wine is worthy of heaven.
I have heard that it is more than a saint, and it is as virtuous as a sage.
Since the sages have already drunk, why bother to ask the gods.
Three cups lead to the avenue, and one bucket is natural.
But if you have fun in wine, don't pass it on to the awake.
A poem immortal Li Bai's masterpiece, Bai Fan wrote it heartily, and the guests of the restaurant also applauded loudly after reading it in one go!
I saw the shopkeeper Cui giving a big gift to Bai Fan: "It turned out that everyone Bai was in person, and I didn't know Mount Tai with my eyes below, please forgive everyone Bai for the offense!"
I heard that the white characters are unparalleled in the world, but I didn't expect your poetry to be equally unique, with this work, don't say a thousand gold, that is, ten thousand gold can't buy it!
It is a great honor for you to leave a masterpiece of Mobao in the small shop!
Ladies and gentlemen, please be a witness, the watchtower hereby promises that from now on, all the expenses of the white family in the watchtower in the future will be borne by the lookout! ”
What the? It turns out that he is the creator of the white font?
Bai Fan is trying to enjoy the feeling of attracting the attention of the world, but when he heard the shopkeeper call himself Bai Dajia? When did you get this nickname?
Fortunately, Changsun Chong explained in time, and Bai Fan understood that his brother had not been in Chang'an for a long time, but Chang'an was already full of legends of his brother!
Bai Fan, accompanied by the shopkeeper, took all the apprentices and nephews to swagger up to the third floor.
In fact, as Bai Fan said, this matter is a big profit for Wangjinglou, with this poem in hand, I don't have to worry that the world's people and inkmen will not come to visit, and with the growth of Bai Fan's reputation in the future, this work will be more valuable! And it is precisely this poem written on the wall, and others can't buy it if they want to, so the shopkeeper's heart is already happy!
There are not many seats on the third floor of the observation tower, only five sets of tables, all of which are placed in the position by the window around, after all, the location of the third floor of the observation tower is very high, and you can see the entire Chang'an City outside!
At this time, there was already a table on the third floor, and Bai Fan and a few people had to sit around the table as if they were swarming, and one ordered all the good wine and food to be served, and the waiters on the third floor naturally knew how to do it.
"Master, you are so powerful, I thought you could only count, but I didn't expect you to know everything! And so powerful? The apprentices shouted as if they were full of little stars.
"This time I'm convinced, let you apprentices all be reluctant with bitter faces, now what? Master can invite you to dinner every day, and this treatment will not be disadvantageous to you! Bai Fan quipped.
A few people were talking and laughing while eating, and the atmosphere was so unhappy for a while!
"This little brother, I admired the masterpiece of the little brother in my heart, the masterpiece on the first floor, people who are not wine lovers can not write, there is the best wine here, I don't know if I have the honor to invite the little brother to have a drink together?" I saw that the guests at the opposite table invited Bai Fan.
Bai Fan looked up, okay! Although this uncle looks forty years old, he gives people the feeling that it is a word 'handsome'! Very handsome, handsome like a spring breeze!
"If you have good wine, how can you be extraordinary?" Bai Fan responded with a laugh.
Instructed Li Chunfeng to take care of a few little guys, and then got up to change the table, Li Chunfeng had already seen that the identity of the person opposite was extraordinary, but he couldn't see how many glances he gave Bai Fan, and sighed slightly in his heart, Uncle, we can't get into trouble every time!
