Chapter 13 Who is Nie Hong?

The next day.

Suzhou City is still Suzhou City, and the leisurely Tang people still drink morning tea and take a walk.

It doesn't seem to be any different.

But it seems to be a little different.

Oh, it turned out that there were a few strange "advertisements" in several downtown areas in the east of the city.

The content of the advertisement is as follows: The store opened today, and specially launched four signature dishes, eight special dishes, Qingli Hero Wine, and those who go to the store today to eat will be discounted. And every hour, there is a table of guests who can eat for free, so there are many opportunities, so don't miss it.

The following is the payment and address of Hongchen Inn.

Most of the people who have seen it are laughing, and some people are thinking about tearing this "small advertisement" home, this paper is very valuable, people are mostly casually talking a few words, and then look at each other and smile and leave.

But after all, some people are tempted and can't help but want to see the so-called four signature dishes, eight specialties, and what kind of Qingli Hero Wine is.

Liu Jiqian with his hands behind his back, holding a slightly fat belly, walking outside the staff, strolling on the street, this is his habit, the reason why he was able to operate the Liu family cloth shop in just five years is to rely on keen observation, and the ability to grasp the market, he likes to observe the dress of the people around him, and then adjust his business strategy, so that his cloth line, always walk in the forefront of the trend.

But he's been in a bad mood lately.

The reason for the bad mood is very simple, it is because of his baby daughter, Liu Yuchan.

After Song Kai jumped into the river and went on a blind date with his daughter in public last time, more than a dozen people who came to the door to propose marriage immediately regretted it, but that time it was enough, although many people regretted it, but after all, there are still a few families who still want to marry themselves.

Among them is the matchmaker of the county Cheng Yang Rongguang's family.

Yang Huaiyan did not regret jumping into the river because of that jump, and still begged his father to go to Liu's house to propose marriage.

The official of the county is not big, but Yang Rongguang is the county of Wu County, this official is big, the boundary under the jurisdiction of Wu County is Suzhou City, so the county order of Wu County is one grade higher than the official position of the county order of other counties in Suzhou City, which is the sixth grade, and Yang Rongguang, as the county Cheng, is also the official position of the seventh grade. More importantly, it is said that Yang Rongguang has a relationship with the above, and if the official position is transferred in the coming year, he will definitely be promoted, and at least it will be the county order of Wu County at that time.

This is a good family affair, there are people in the court who are good at business, and the truth will remain unchanged through the ages, but it's a pity that Liu Yuchan doesn't agree to live or die!

Ay!

Liu Jiqian was very bored, and when he took a few steps forward, he saw more than a dozen people gathered around and discussing something.

Raising his head, Liu Jiqian looked at the notice, "Huh" for a moment, and then lowered his head and sneered disdainfully, this Song Kai is not dead yet! If the Song family does not have a family path and falls, it would be good for his daughter to marry that stupid boy, but now he has no choice but to ......

Liu Jiqian paced away, but heard a voice behind him.

"Uncle Liu is well!"

Liu Jiqian turned his head, it was Yang Huaiyan who was wandering around with two subordinates.

Yang Huaiyan is dressed brightly and neatly, looks very sophisticated, and he also has a bit of a talent, so he is really a rare candidate for virtuous Xu.

"It turned out to be Yang Lang," Liu Jiqian gave up.

Yang Huaiyan stretched out his hand and invited Liu Jiqian and said, "Uncle Liu, let's go to the teahouse over there to drink tea, I finally saw you once, but I don't have to invite you to a meal." ”

"Haha, it's okay," Liu Jiqian walked inside.

The guest sat down, Yang Huaiyan sighed first, and said: "Uncle Liu, it seems that this Song Kai's mind is really getting more and more confused, and his good family business has been ruined, and now not only does he not know how to stop, but he is becoming more and more nonsense." ”

"Who's to say it isn't, hey!" Liu Jiqian sighed.

Yang Huaiyan looked at Liu Jiqian's eyes, saw that he was really disgusted, and rejoiced in his heart, and then said in a low voice: "Uncle Liu, have you ever heard the news of the purchase of silk cloth in the palace?" ”

Liu Jiqian's body shook and looked at Yang Huaiyan.

Yang Huaiyan shook the pu fan and said: "I also heard my father talk with the adults of the weaving department, this time our supply in Suzhou will increase, so the weaving department is looking for a new supplier, hehe......"

Liu Jiqian nodded, supply silk cloth to the palace, this is a beautiful difference, the purchase volume in the palace is very large, and the price is not reduced, if you can get this supply quota, the Liu family cloth store will definitely go to the next level, but her daughter would rather die than agree to marry Yang Huaiyan, how can this be good?

Yang Huaiyan just revealed such a news, so he didn't say it anymore, he knew that Liu Jiqian was a smart person and knew what he meant, so he changed his words and said: "Uncle Liu, it's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, according to the practice of previous years, we will have dragon boat racing in Suzhou City, and there will also be poetry meetings, singing and dancing, etc., and when the time comes, there will be clothing and cloth supply, and Uncle Liu will be asked to help." ”

Liu Jiqian laughed and said, "It's easy to say." ”

Poetry clubs, dragon boat races, these things, the amount of clothing purchased is not much, and the requirements are quite high, and the profit in it is not much, but in any case, it is also profitable, Yang Huaiyan's father is the county Cheng, in charge of the six divisions, these chores he can speak.

Give Liu Ji a little sweetness first, and the matter of the palace supply must use his daughter as a bargaining chip.

Yang Huaiyan and Liu Jiqian had a conversation, and the two separated.

"Young master, what the head of the family means, is that you still don't want to marry Liu Yuchan, her behavior style is really unorthodox," the slave behind him whispered to Yang Huaiyan.

Yang Huaiyan sneered, shook his fan, and said, "If I can't win that Mrs. Liu, wouldn't it be a loss of my face!" Hmph, when I marry her, if she dares to behave debauchery, I will divorce her, so that I will not lose, this woman, I must get! ”

"The young master is talented," the two family members sneered.

At this time, the news of the opening of Hongchen Inn was spread out, and with the sound of gongs and drums, there were still many people who were attracted to it.

"Huh? Isn't this the Song family's inn? Haven't you fallen yet? ”

"Yes, yes, hey, speaking of which, Song Jialangjun is also a poor person, a dad like this."

"According to me, it's best to sell this inn, and I got a lot of money off last time I opened."

The neighbors who passed by were all talking, but ordinary people really didn't have much money to eat and drink in restaurants these days.

"Hey, this is it, Hongchen Inn, yes, this is it," three young men in white clothes and literati hats walked over, one of them pointed to Hongchen Inn, and said with a smile: "It's this shopkeeper who came out to post a notice to promote his inn, he has a lot of ideas." ”

"Huh? Brother Chen, look at this couplet, it's also interesting. ”

"Red dust food with fragrant wine, green jade lion drool? Hahahaha, it's really a little interesting, but the lion at the door doesn't seem to drool. ”

The three of them laughed for a while, then walked to the store, and said that they wanted to try the so-called signature dishes, special dishes.

Song Kai was beating the gong and drum outside the door, and just said to the three: "Please inside," and continued to beat the gong.

There were more and more onlookers at the door.

At this time, there were three exclamations from the inn.

"Oh my God!"

"Impossible!"

"Who is Nie Hong!"

"Absolutely!"

The three literati who had just entered were screaming like madness inside.

When the people at the door heard this, they wondered, and then some people went in.

Then more exclamations came, and before I could order the food, the exclamations had already resounded.

At this moment, some people outside couldn't bear it anymore, and people who were just passing by also walked in.

Song Kai just knocked the gong expressionlessly, and after more than 20 people entered, he stopped, believing that with these more than 20 people as an introduction, his own store should be able to open.

Just about to enter the store, an old man walked over with a smile, he was wearing a green cloth robe, walking unhurriedly, and when he arrived in front of Song Kai, he arched his hand and said with a smile: "Song Lang, you are really open." ”

Song Kai saw that it was Xue Weihai, and he also smiled and said, "Elder Xue, please." ”

At this time, a group of people poured into the inn behind, led by Sun Ximei, who was dressed as a man.

"Ximei?" Song Kai was stunned.

Sun Ximei was expressionless and said: "I'm afraid that no one will patronize your inn when it opens, so I brought some friends and relatives to eat, well, it seems that I was too worried." With that, Sun Ximei walked inside.

Behind her, there were men and women, all dressed in men's clothes, and they also went inside, and whispered as they walked, probably saying that there was nothing good to eat in this inn at first glance.

Song Kai didn't defend himself, and walked into the store with Xue Weihai.

Inside the inn, all the people were standing, their heads raised, motionless looking at the few poems hanging on the walls.

Song Kai didn't expect these people to have such a big reaction, it seems that there were too few entertainment activities in the Tang Dynasty, so they regarded poetry as so important.

Sun Ximei was a little proud, she greeted the men and women behind her like a master, "Let's sit in the box on the second floor." ”

"Oh my God!" A woman behind Sun Ximei grabbed Sun Ximei violently, "Sister Mei, look! ”

Sun Ximei naturally knew about it a long time ago, so she just chuckled.

"When is the bright moon, ask the wine to the sky, I don't know what year it is in the heavenly palace...... Oh, my God! The woman stood in place dumbfounded, "Eternal quatrain, eternal swan song!" It's just, how could it be in such a dilapidated inn? ”

Sun Ximei pulled a few people, "Don't be like this, I really haven't seen the world, we're here to eat." ”

Despite this, Sun Ximei was still quite proud in her heart, after all, these poems were written by herself.

Xue Weihai's old eyes swept over the poems, his brows furrowed, and he glanced at Song Kai sideways.

Song Kai pointed to the window seat on the second floor and said, "Old Xue, that's yours, VIP seat." ”

"Song Lang, this Nie Hong is ......" Xue Weihai couldn't help it, and asked, after all, he was born in the imperial examination and was talented, but when he saw these poems, he also felt a sense of powerlessness.

"Huh...... It's a gift from a friend," Song Kai smiled and said easily.

"Friends? Confidante? You are so good-looking, you are talented! Xue Weihai shook his head, "It seems that she must have a deep affection for you, hey, it's a pity, it's a pity, I envy the old man, but I don't know, where is this confidante now, why is she not with you?" ”

When Xue Weihai said this, someone next to him heard it and immediately jumped over.

"What! Are you the store? You know Nie Hong! Ask for an introduction! Please be sure to introduce! ”

As soon as the words fell, Song Kai was surrounded by a hula.
