Section IV

Shopkeeper Yang and some scholars who watched the excitement watched coldly behind him. When they saw Chen Yuan hugging his fists and bowing to the beggar, these scholars were a little angry.

Their purpose has always been to rather lose their lives than the integrity of scholars. And when Chen Yuan bowed to the beggar and said, "Big brother", they all felt that this was insulting.

These beggars are obviously all professional beggars. Of course, it is not the same as our current professional beggars, who are now professional beggars to make money. In ancient times, professional beggars were there to survive.

For a scholar to call them like this, the beggar leader was obviously a little surprised, and hurriedly stood up: "Childe said that it was funny, what can we people do to help Childe?" ”

The gentle scolding of the scholars behind him occasionally reached Chen Yuan's ears, but he didn't care. Businessmen also have integrity, and their integrity is money, as long as they can make money, they can sell anything. The integrity of a reader? Of course, the first one was sold.

"This eldest brother, the younger brother has some wine pressed in the warehouse, and wants to find a restaurant to sell, but the younger brother is not familiar with the nearby restaurant, there are more than ten letters, I want to ask the eldest brother to help the younger brother send it to the nearest restaurant nearby."

Chen Yuan then took out the fifteen letters, took out another fifteen cents, and said politely: "The younger brother is also poor and can't afford to pay too much labor. Well, I'll give you a penny for a letter. If you want to move the other party to buy wine, I will give you five cents for a jar of wine, how about it? ”

The beggars laughed, and the lame beggar took the letter: "What is the big deal for me!" Childe rest assured, it's going to be late anyway, we just have to go to those restaurants to see if we can ask for some food, and help Childe send the letter by the way. ”

Chen Yuan clasped his fists again and saluted: "Thank you, big brothers." ”

Do you really rely on beggars to sell alcohol? Chen Yuan didn't think about this problem.

But if they send the letter, it is always a hope, and for a businessman, fifteen pennies for a hope is worth it.

"A jar of wine costs five cents, does the son really give it?" A still somewhat immature voice came from behind Chen Yuan.

Chen Yuan replied very simply: "Give!" Of course it gives! Don't worry, as long as there is a restaurant to buy wine, I will give you five cents for a jar of wine! Sell more, mention more, and never break your promise. ”

It was a beggar of fifteen or sixteen years old, with a dark face and tattered clothes. After listening to Chen Yuan's answer, the beggar suddenly took out a set of fairly clean clothes from the package he was carrying, and said to himself, "Then I'll go get some water first." ”

Chen Yuan glanced at him, and the little beggar smiled: "I want to wash my hair and face, at least so that people don't look like I'm a beggar, so that I can look like a wine seller." ”

Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment, and then looked at the little beggar twice.

After negotiating with these beggars, Chen Yuan's first business came to the door. He was a man in his thirties, with bulging muscles on his arms and dark skin.

"Boss! Give half a pound of loose wine. ”

The man's voice is very rough, whether it is speaking or appearance, he knows at a glance that he eats by strength.

Chen Yuan hurriedly responded: "The guest officer is here!" Half a pound of loose wine will arrive soon! ”

Quickly ran to the wine tank, picked up your half-catty spoon, and after a full spoonful, Chen Yuan found that the strong man's eyes were still looking at the funnel, and he didn't stop at the moment, and scooped some more from the tank: "Guest officer, you are the bold person, I can't help you if you have less wine!" I'll give you some more. ”

In fact, along the way, most of the wine scooped up by Chen Yuan returned to the wine tank, and he didn't even add a penny, but the strong man's face showed a smile, looked at Chen Yuan twice, and said, "It turns out that the boss has changed?" I said, why is the big dog not here today! Okay, bro! You know how to do business than the old man before, and your brother will come to you when he drinks in the future! ”

Chen Yuan hurriedly picked up the bag of peanuts: "Brother, go slowly!" This is a brother who gave it, you can taste it. ”

The strong man took the small bag and looked at it: "Oops! This stuff is good! After saying that, he didn't wait to go home, sat down against the pillar, picked up the wine jug, spread out the raw rice, and sat on the ground and drank two sips first.

Just as another person walked by the street, the strong man saw it and shouted: "Dog! Where to go? ”

The man turned his head and saw the strong man: "Get some wine, my brother-in-law is here." ”

The strong man pointed at Chen Yuan with his hand: "Come here, this is my brother." ”

The dog seemed to hesitate for a moment, and finally couldn't wipe off his face, so he came over with a wine jug: "Let's play eight taels." ”

Chen Yuan took the wine jug: "Eight taels of old wine!" Hear me, guest officer, wait a minute! ”

A small hand stretched out from under the counter, and Chen Yuan only saw a small head melon seed.

"Boss, have a couple of drinks."

Chen Yuan stretched out his hand and touched the top of the child's head: "Child, come to drink for your family?" ”

The top of the child's head moved twice, and Jiuwen Daqian appeared from the palm of his hand, and it was covered with sweat.

Obviously, the adult explained that he couldn't lose the money, so he clutched it very tightly.

Chen Yuan put away the big money, played three taels of wine, and then took a sugar ball: "Uncle likes obedient children the most, and children who help adults drink are the most capable, come, this is Uncle Reward for you." ”

A string of sugar balls, this kind of reward is already the best for the child, the figure at the bottom jumped obviously, and Chen Yuan could see that the child was very happy.

It didn't take long for him to see several children with wine jugs running over and rushing to Chen Yuan's counter: "Boss! Is there a sugar ball to eat when you drink alcohol? ”

People, that's it. When I was young, I couldn't withstand the temptation, and when I grew up, I liked to take advantage of it. There are many people who buy wine, so naturally some of them are like the strong man, eating and drinking next to him for a while and then going back.

Chen Yuan will not drive these people away, because their presence makes this counter seem very lively, lively, and it will naturally attract some people who like to join in the fun, and will also let some curious people come to see what is going on here.

It's a kind of curiosity, and then, everyone buys it, so I'll buy a little bit of it, anyway, if I have money to spare, it's not a bad thing to drink some alcohol.

Even those who were supposed to see why this place was so lively felt that everyone was drinking, and if I didn't drink it, wouldn't it be a little unreasonable?

Shopkeeper Yang never thought that he could sell out two jars of wine in one night.

By the time the sun was still a little shining, the wine had bottomed out.

Chen Yuan hasn't closed the door yet.

What do you do if you don't close the door when you see the bottom? Because tomorrow the shopkeeper Yang is a person who counts, and tomorrow morning, this wine shop will be his own.

There's nothing wrong with chatting with the drinkers sitting at the door, first of all, to find out what the customers think about themselves and the restaurant. The most important thing is that if you close the store when the wine is sold out, it will create an intuition for these drinkers that you are a wine seller.

(There is one more in the evening, three more a day, definitely a lot, brothers to recommend some collections!) ）
