Chapter Ninety-Nine: How Can Drinking Be Considered Stealing?
But it said that it was in Jinling City.
At noon, the little hooligans, according to Baihe's instructions, stripped the eleven thieves and hung them to the door of their respective masters' houses, which immediately caused a great commotion.
And what's even more outrageous is that Baihe means to find a brand or paper to write the thief's guilt, but the little hooligan didn't even bother to find the paper brand, so he wrote it directly on the thief's body, and then took out the big seal of the Jianghu Supervision Department and stamped it - pop!
Now it's a lot of fun!
The paint of the seal is specially made, and unless it is scraped off a layer of skin, don't want to wash it off, so that everyone knows that this is a thief, and the most important thing is that everyone knows that this restaurant actually sent someone to steal the secret recipe, and was caught - shameless! Lose face!
Although commercial spies are available all the time, you can also do it secretively, this kind of thing is very good to do in secret, and if you are caught on the stage, you can only consider yourself unlucky.
The eleven restaurants and wineries did not dare to save people, and the thieves only wrote the guilt on their bodies, but did not specify who was the mastermind, and whoever dared to save people did not admit themselves, but only knocked out their front teeth and swallowed them in their stomachs. The second is because the Ministry of Supervision of the People's Rivers and Lakes hangs it, saying that it will hang you for a day, and it will not work for a second! Whoever dares to move is obstructing official business and shielding accomplices, so I have no choice but to invite you to the yamen......
However, they all hung up at the door of the house, and everyone knew who the master was, but they didn't remove the last fig leaf, and everyone could only pretend to be confused.
Waves of melon-eating crowds surrounded the eleven light pigs and pointed at them, this big news was enough for them to blow for a year, and then asked who did it: yes, it's the white son of the Lin family again!
I'm afraid this white boy is going to heaven! In just two days, two major gossips have been created in a row, enriching the spare time life of the people of Dazhou, what a good person! In the past, he was quietly a straw bale son-in-law, and his daring was all an illusion? Now he finally can't help but make a splash?
Speculation varies.
But your peers have suffering. On the one hand, they hated the Lan family who had done everything to the extreme, but on the other hand, they coveted the benefits of liquor, and then sent someone to steal it, they didn't dare, but they couldn't catch it when they saw a large amount of money slipping away in front of them, and they were unwilling. Moreover, when the liquor is officially on sale, I don't know how the Lan family will raise the butcher knife and slaughter themselves...... This kind of complicated feelings, not to mention how tangled.
And there is another person who is also entangled, Mr. Qinglian.
The reason for his entanglement is simple - the wine is gone.
Miss Lianxing pulled down her face and exchanged the Qinglian Drunken Moon Diagram worth 10,000 gold for a jar of liquor for him, saying that she would not go a second time. After this day, no matter how slowly the jar of liquor was drunk, it finally ran out at night, and as a result, Mr. Qinglian, who was going to worry about tomorrow, immediately began to worry, and his eyes were a little green.
After brushing the wine gourd three times with boiled water, it finally became "true boiled water", and then Mr. Qinglian couldn't sit still, he turned his heart sideways, and suddenly found a thief's three-piece suit - black clothes, black pants and black mask.
Lian Xing was taken aback when he saw this, even though he had already guessed his plan, he still couldn't believe it after all, so he asked, "Senior brother, why are you going?" ”
"Hahaha!" Mr. Qinglian sneered, and said casually: "Go out for a walk for my brother......"
"I'm afraid I'm not going to go to the Lan Family Winery, right?" Pity the stars and whisper.
"Those who know me, pity the stars, hahaha!"
"Can you still have a face?!" Lian Xing covered his face, "The master of the dignified Wenxin Holy Pavilion, the great master of the world, even learned to do this kind of gentleman's business, if it is a rare treasure, it will be forgotten, but you actually want to steal wine...... Senior brother, is it really good that you are so willful? ”
"Haha, how can drinking be considered stealing? …… Go for my brother! ”
"Go, go, go! The matter is revealed, don't say you know me! I don't have a brother like you! Before he finished speaking, Mr. Qinglian was gone, and Lianxing was desperate.
But think about it, with the cultivation of the senior brother, no one should be able to see through his identity, right?
Well, it should ...... Right?
……
When Mr. Qinglian came to the distillery, Bai He happened to be discussing the pricing with Father Lan, and at this time, there were people outside the yard who were cleaning up the sundries, and the yard was brightly lit, so there was no chance to start, so he had to shrink in the dark and wait for the opportunity.
For the sake of life, this great master is still very patient.
He was very skillful, and when he listened to it, he could hear the movement in the room clearly, and just listened to Bai He's remarks of "white wine is like an oiran" into his ears, and he was a little surprised: "Senior sister said that this Bai He used to be a straw bag, if it weren't for the fact that he could not die after being hit by the Holy Queen, I wouldn't have bothered to look at him." However, now it seems that the name of this straw bale is a bit undeserved! This kid is a talent, and there are not many ...... in the world who can see human nature so clearly."
Father Lan still needs Bai He's slow enlightenment, but Mr. Qinglian understands it as soon as he hears it. This truth is actually very simple, what is the forced style, packaging, in the final analysis, in fact, it is just the word "face".
The first-class wine is not sold but it is more valuable, which is to take advantage of people's good face comparison psychology.
Take the Qinglou as an example, the young lady in the Qinglou, the kind who sells herself and doesn't sell her art, no matter how much you buy, it can only mean nothing. But if it's an Oiran who doesn't sell her body, if you take her home, then you will have more face.
In the same way, the same is true of baijiu, and its status is even better than that of the oiran, because every green building in the oiran has it, but there is only one baijiu distillery in the whole world. When liquor is sold all over the world and becomes famous, who can have a jar of "first-class liquor" is a symbol of status and a proof of face.
Moreover, this day is not far off.
Rich people will never be short of money, and the so-called "Shenhao" in your eyes is actually just poverty that limits your imagination. For the sake of this face, or in order to be more face-saving than others, you can never imagine how bold they are.
"Haha, interesting! This kid is so interesting! ”
After listening, Mr. Qinglian couldn't help but be happy, and thought to himself: "I thought there was only one kind of liquor, but I didn't expect that there was actually a grade...... Baihe, Baihe, I, Li Bai, have asked you twice in a row, and your kid actually missed the appointment, so I'll move you a few more jars of wine later...... Well, I'm afraid that only the first-class wine with no price can be worthy of my identity as Li Bai! ”
