Chapter Ninety-Four: Good Wine Is Not Good One

readx;

"Everything is in order, you can go down if it's okay. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 After Guo Shan finished speaking, he got up and went back to his room to sleep.

Hu Laohan hesitated, stopped Guo Shan and said, "Master, are you in a bad mood?" ā€

Guo Shan raised his eyebrows, he hadn't thrown his face at anyone in the past two days, why did this old rammer say that he was in a bad mood?

Hu Laohan snorted, and replied in the face of Guo Shan's gaze: "Although you have been busy with big and small things for many days, you refuse to go when the second master of the Fang family and the sons of the Chai family come to play with you when you are free. When the old slave thinks about it, you must have something on your mind. ā€

Guo Shan shook his head in denial and said, "Is there anything fun out there?" I have to play. If you don't play, you're in a bad mood? You're thinking too much. ā€

Hu Laohan said: "Then when can you return to Taichang Temple to be on duty?" Look, it's been almost a month, and the mooncake thing is over. Your Majesty, it's time for you to go back to Taichang Temple. ā€

Guo Shan sneered, the position has been lifted, and he still wants to run to Taichang Temple.

"Sir."

Before Hu Laohan left, Xiao You had already walked in and said, "The second son of the Du family has replied." ā€

Guo Shan asked, "So fast?" What did he say? ā€

Xiao You smiled bitterly: "He said that his agreement with you was a month ago, and if you have to make an appointment now, the conditions will have to be changed." He said that the emperor has allocated so many refugees to you, and he will definitely not be able to compare with you in terms of strength. Unless, unless the person given to you by the emperor cannot be counted, he will not compare. ā€

Guo Shan was happy when he heard this: "His Du family is so powerful, and the family in the house has a large population. At the beginning, didn't he just look at me Guo Shan and didn't have any friends before he wanted to compete with me? Now that I have more than a thousand craftsmen, I refuse to compare? It's so beautiful. ā€

After complaining, Guo Shan frowned and asked Hu Laohan, "Steward Hu, you say." If we don't count the people given to us by the emperor, and only use the soldiers in the house to fight with him, can we get by? ā€

Hu Laohan shook his head and said, "I heard that there are many rangers in Chang'an City who have gathered to help them, all of whom are friends of the second prince Du, and I am afraid that there are hundreds of people gathered. This force is no longer something that our Guo family can unite to fight against. ā€

Guo Shan touched his chin, and felt a little funny: "I don't know what kind of madness this Du Erlang made at the beginning to compare forces with me, and this is not a gang fight." Besides, if so many people really fight, it will be impossible for the court to ignore it at that time. This Du He, do you want to tell me that he has many friends, and want to show his strength in front of me? After that, Guo Shan said: "Since he wants to compare, then compare." If you have to find a group of people to fight, fight. Whoever wins makes a profit, that's how the game works. But I have to add one more, let's say that I, Guo Shan, fell in love with his Du family's empty house in Yong'an Fang. If he loses, give me the house. I don't use his house in vain, according to the rules of the market, we will give him as much as it costs to rent his house for a month. ā€

"Does the master really plan not to be a person in the workshop? In that case, there are only more than 100 people in our house. Hu Laohan said busily.

Before the trilogy was not recruited, Guo Fu's combat effectiveness was actually weak. Guo Shandao: "Where is there so many people in a hundred?" It's a fight, maybe there's going to be a fight then. Those maids and maids and kaki in our house can't be dragged to beat him Duhe, so they can only let the housekeepers who can beat them go with sticks. But there are only twenty or thirty people in our house, right? ā€

Seeing Xiaoyou and Hu Laohan smiling bitterly, Guo Shan sneered and said: "Then there is nothing to be afraid of, when the time comes, we will take thirty people to fight with him on the bank of the Bahe River." Didn't Du He always disagree with me? Then hit him and beat him until he was obedient. ā€

After speaking, Guo Shan wanted to dismiss them. But at this time, a maid came to report that Xu Qian had arrived.

Guo Shan was stunned for a moment, stroked his forehead for a while, and said speechlessly: "It looks like you don't want to take a nap today." ā€

simply got off the porch and said, "In the future, Xu Niangzi doesn't need to be summoned to report when she comes to me, so I invite her to come in and talk first." ā€

The maid went, and Hu Laohan hesitated and said, "If the master has nothing to order, the old slave will leave first?" ā€

Guo Shan waved his hand to let him stand down, and Xiao You hurriedly called left and right to prepare new tea.

I saw Xu Qian walking in alone, and Ying Ying saluted Guo Shan. Seeing that her face was flushed and sweaty, Guo Shan hurriedly led her to sit down, looked up and asked her, "Drink wine or tea?" ā€

Xu Qian thanked her first before saying, "The slave family came by themselves." ā€

Guo Shan let go of her hand that grabbed the hawthorn wine, poured her a glass in person, and said, "How can I, Guo Shan, leave the huge mess to you alone." Pouring you a glass of 'Shan'er wine' is a token of gratitude. Xu Niangzi has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, is there something wrong with coming to Guo Shan this time? ā€

Xu Qian took Guo Shan's wine glass and pecked a sip of wine. Holding the cup, he didn't sell it to Guo Shan, and said to Guo Shan: "The slave family did come to talk to the son." ā€

Hearing this, Guo Shan sat up straight and said, "Penglaige?" ā€

Xu Qian nodded, put the cup down and said, "It's not an ordinary thing, the main thing is that someone came to Penglai Pavilion to find me and thought of me Penglai Pavilion to buy wine." ā€

Guo Shan was stunned for a moment and said, "Our Penglai Pavilion has never sold wine, don't all the people in Chang'an City know this?" ā€

Xu Qian shook her head with a wry smile and said, "If it was an ordinary person, I would have refused, but the person who came this time is really difficult to refuse, and I need you to take the idea." ā€

Guo Shan heard the words and said, "Could it be that it is a relative of the emperor?" ā€

Xu Qian shook her head and said, "It's the Shangshi Bureau." ā€

Guo Shan got up and exclaimed, "Shang Shi Bureau? What does the court mean? ā€

Xu Qian said: "It's not the meaning of the imperial court, it's the meaning of the Shangshi Bureau." When I was running errands, a man approached the slave family and said that he wanted us to come to the pavilion and offer them wine. Naturally, I refused, but he said that he was the head of the Shang Shi Bureau. ā€

"The Shangshi Bureau is the official office of the imperial court, and they manage the diet of the emperor's concubines in the harem. It stands to reason that there are good things that naturally have to be offered to the people in the palace to eat, so the people from this Shangshi Bureau come to my Penglai Pavilion to ask for wine, so there is nothing to say. ā€

Guo Shandao: "Since it's for the palace, then we don't have anything to say." This wine must be given. ā€

Xu Qian smiled bitterly: "But the amount they want is too much, our Penglai Pavilion is not in sufficient supply, where is the surplus wine for the palace people?" ā€

Guo Shan frowned, thinking about it.

There are so many concubines in the palace, so many princes and grandchildren, and so many people. A little wine really can't satisfy the appetite of the emperor's family, even if the Penglai Pavilion is closed and the wine is sent to the Shangshi Bureau, I'm afraid it won't be enough for so many people in the harem.

"What do they want for good wine and wine?" Guo Shan asked.

Shan'er wine is hawthorn wine, but because Guo Shan won the first place in the moon viewing meeting, the name of this wine was named after Guo Shan.

"The one from the Shangshi Bureau said that they don't want wine, just good wine." Xu Qian replied.

Guo Shan frowned, and asked again, "How much Shan'er wine does he want?" ā€

Xu Qian smiled bitterly and said, "I want a lot; It was divided into three batches, and the first batch required 500 altars. ā€

How many are 500 altars? Guo Shan didn't calculate it carefully, but he knew that the amount of five hundred altars was too big, and he couldn't take out the big ones at all.

With a dark face, Guo Shan sneered: "This is just the first batch?" This Shangshi Bureau also really opened its mouth. Let's take the wine, where did we get so much wine for him? By the way, did he pay? ā€

Xu Qian's face was a little unsightly: "I mentioned it, I said that five hundred jars of wine will give us two hundred silver cakes." ā€

Guo Shan's face turned green when he heard this: "He is the wine jar of my house, is it the size of a jar?" Did I hear it wrong, or did he say it wrong? He didn't inquire about who had the best wine and the most expensive in the entire Chang'an City. ā€

Guo Shanqi was happy and said, "I want to buy five hundred jars of wine for two hundred silver cakes, let him dream." ā€

"Then, the slave family refused?" Xu Qian got up and asked Guo Shan as if asking.

Guo Shan nodded, his face was ugly, and said, "You just tell that Shangshi Zhichang that Penglai Pavilion doesn't have so much wine." Tell him to find another way. ā€

Xu Qian hesitated for a moment and then retreated.

Xiao You looked at Guo Shan, whose face was not very good-looking, with concern, and said, "Master, let's just give people back, and that straight chief won't trouble us?" ā€

Guo Shan sneered: "You also heard it before, it's not that my friends don't want to agree, it's really that the food bureau doesn't take my friends too seriously." The slightly famous wines in Chang'an City are hundreds of dollars a bucket, and some of those famous wines are sold for thousands of dollars. Although the Shan'er wine of our Penglai Pavilion is not expensive for takeaway, it is not cheap either. This Shangshi Bureau knew that Shan'er wine was not cheap, but he used the price of inferior wine to buy my Penglaige's Shan'er wine. If it is really sold to them, as soon as others hear that it is only worth this price when they hear that it is sold to the palace, then those who have come to Penglai Pavilion to eat Shan'er wine will not say that the price of Shan'er wine given by our Penglai Pavilion is too high, and our people in Penglai Pavilion are too sorry to do things? ā€

Guo Shan sneered again: "Besides, our Shan'er wine is not cheap. The hawthorns are carefully purchased at a high price, and the sake is never shoddy. Just a few hundred wines want to buy a jar, which is a clear attempt to blackmail. A straight man with a good food, just a seven-grade official, I Guo Shan is still offended. ā€

Seeing that Xiaoyou was going to persuade again, Guo Shan waved his hand and said: "This matter is so decided, it can only be done like this, it must be done this way." This incident also reminded me that the industry is big and famous, and those cats and dogs in the court want to come to you to take advantage. Today, the Shangshi Bureau came to ask for good wine, and the people from Ming'er Guanglu Temple also came to you to ask for wine. Seeing that the moon cake workshop is making money, I really don't know if I will ask you to pay tribute to moon cakes for free. If that's really the case, then what am I going to do with these workshops and restaurants? ā€

After speaking, Guo Shan turned around and entered the house. But this time, I don't know if he can still fall asleep after listening to Xu Qian's letter.
