The candidate for the commander of the dark guard has been repeatedly scrutinized by Canglong City. There really isn't anyone particularly suitable. In the end, Wu Bai made a decision and chose a middle-level figure from the original Barberry Cottage to replace him temporarily.

Qingshui Street was originally a meeting place for scholars and literati. The opening of the Qixian Restaurant, the eye-catching couplet. Let the scholars and literati who come and go can't help but stop.
The shopkeeper of Lanling City's Qixian Restaurant Sun is the original barberry cottage and the old man who followed Wulong. At this time, he was dressed in full costume to greet the guests.
"Shopkeeper, who made this couplet?" A scholar asked curiously.
The rest of the people also looked curious, waiting for the answer from the shopkeeper of the Qixian Restaurant.
Shopkeeper Sun laughed, and said with a proud tone.
"I won't hide it from you, these ten Shanglian are all asked for by the owner from Wuzi Zhan Wu Gongzi!"
Since ancient times, literati have been contemptuous. Wu Bai's talent spread throughout Lanling City during this time. There are admirers, and there are even more scholars and literati who are not convinced.
As soon as Shopkeeper Sun said this, some people had such expressions. Others are eager to make a name for themselves.
"The golden willow by the Jinshui River, the golden willow wears the goldfish mouth. Qingyi Building on Qingshui Street, Qingyi Building is ashamed! Ha ha! How about my next link? ”
Zhang Xian, the young owner of the Lanling Chamber of Commerce, looked like a swinger, laughed and asked Su Liang, Xu Yi and others.
Xu Yi said with a smile. "This is also Wenda you, so you can make such a connection. Wonderful! ”
Su Liang looked smiling and approached Zhang Xian. Whispered.
"Spent the night in Qingyi Building last night?"
The surrounding people heard Zhang Xian's next link. It was all a burst of laughter.
Qingyi Building, one of the best fireworks places in Lanling City. Zhang Xian, the young owner of the Lanling Chamber of Commerce, stayed overnight in eight out of ten days.
Zhang Xian turned a blind eye to everyone's laughter. Said aloud to everyone.
"Don't laugh, everybody. Come, come, come! Let's be here today, and we've made a deal with Brother Zizhan! ”
"Brother Wenda is the first to take the lead. Li also came to make a move. Chickens and dogs cross the frost bridge, plum blossoms and bamboo leaves all the way. On the stage, the hall is full of long and short tones! It's ugly! ”
Everyone is around the first two couplets. After a while, the restaurant was overcrowded. Most of the young scholars loved to be lively.
Among the many scholars, a scrawny, black-robed, white-washed scholar spoke.
Zhou made a fuss. Tomorrow and the moon, riding a strange horse, Zhang Longbow, Shan Ge into battle, Qin Se Pipa Eight Kings, Wang Wang is above. Withered ancient trees, the city becomes soil, the mountain people ascend to immortals, the four little ghosts are charming, and the ghosts and ghosts commit crimes! ”
This week, the voice of the surnamed scholar fell, and some of the scholars looked excited and applauded loudly.
The impact of the Eight Kings Rebellion of the Great Zhen Empire has not yet passed, and whether Wu Zizhan means it or not, the scholars are not sure.
But this Zhou's surname is Shizi, which definitely means something. When Emperor Zhenwu did not calm the world, he studied art with strangers in the mountains. In his later years, he called himself a mountain man.
His sentence "Mountain people ascend to immortals, ghosts and ghosts are four little ghosts, and ghosts and ghosts commit crimes!" "Combined with the current situation. There is absolutely no mistake in calling the Sixteen Kingdoms with four little ghosts!
A pair of scholars surnamed Zhou suddenly changed the atmosphere in the venue from the level of poetry to worrying about the country and the people.
In addition, everyone is already drunk. The restaurant was overwhelmed by the fierce discussions of the scholars.
……
In the evening, the guests of the restaurant dispersed, and the first five of them had been written by scholars and literati. The last five seem to have been overlooked. Nobody cares.
The shopkeeper Sun gave a three-day wine coupon to the gentleman who came out of the couplet. Among them, the scholar surnamed Zhou made three pairs of lower links. So give a hundred taels of silver as promised!
After checking the accounts, Shopkeeper Sun breathed a long sigh of relief. Not bad, very profitable.
Even if the wine coupons and silver given away are counted together, there is a large surplus, and I am afraid that I will lose money on the first day!
The personnel structure of Qixian Restaurant is two shopkeepers, one bright and one dark.
A bright-faced shopkeeper like Shopkeeper Sun is only responsible for the restaurant business, and the rest of the secret affairs are in charge of the shopkeeper in the shadows.
The shopkeeper in the shadows also cannot interfere in the restaurant business.
When the shopkeeper Sun was handling the accounts, the shopkeeper who managed the affairs of the secret guard in the dark was also summarizing and sorting out the collected news.
Qixian Restaurant has just opened for a day, and its reputation has already spread in Lanling City.
A unique event to meet friends in writing. Enough to surpass all kinds of liquor! It has become the golden sign of the Qixian Restaurant,
The appearance of Qixian Restaurant has made many restaurants in Lanling City unable to sit still!
