Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Winemaker
Ning Que glanced at Xiong Genglong, this guy's wishful thinking is good, and he will definitely make a lot of money if he gives it to the Xiong family. After all, the Xiong family has a thick foundation, a wide road, and a lot of talented people at the bottom, and within half a year, this spirit will inevitably make a reputation.
But what I want is not only money, but also fame.
"Hey, you, the son-in-law of the Xiong family, who is worth a few cities, will actually grab a job with me, and you are not afraid of being embarrassed. You first do what I have to do, my wine is not yet hot, wait for two months, I am looking for a brewmaster, mix and blend this wine well, and it will be done. Ning Que said in an orderly manner: "In addition, don't go to the land of fireworks, Qinghe County has been restless recently, stay honestly, you don't know much about the enemies of the Xiong family, if you are detected, I am afraid you will not be able to eat and walk around." ”
Xiong Genglong waved his hand, didn't care too much, frowned and smiled, "Recently, it has spread all over the city, and I heard that the water dragon treasure house of the Imperial Dynasty is located in Qinghe County, and I don't know if it's true or not." ”
Ning Que thought for a while, these words came from the mouth of Emperor Yue, it is difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood, but she must have a deep meaning when she does this, stirring up the storm, so she is suspicious, one move in the east, one shot in the west, I am afraid that everyone does not know what medicine is sold in the drum?
However, one thing is certain, she must use the Ning family, otherwise she will not find the hollow to take her own path, I am afraid that she will think of this far away in the capital, so she borrowed the lord of Yue Hall to bend the law for personal gain, coerced and lured herself to Qinghe County, matched, connected to Ning Shentong, and reached an agreement.
"You don't have to worry about this, there have been a lot of forces in the city recently, and there are many people, so it's better to be careful. ”
Xiong Genglong diverted the topic, "You're looking for a winemaker?"
Ning Que nodded, a little more surprised in his eyes.
"I do know a winemaker who happens to live in seclusion in Qinghe County, his reputation is not obvious, and his temper is terrible, but his craftsmanship is ......."
Ning Que interrupted his lengthy and complicated repetition, "Where?"
Xiong Genglong was stunned for a moment, looked at Ning Que's impatient eyes, yawned, stretched, and pretended to be tired and smiled: "What are you anxious about, I can talk about the ugly things ahead, this old guy is not easy to follow, my father sent people to look at the thatched house, and even bent over, but he didn't move, as for you, forget it." ”
Ning Que looked puzzled, "Does this person have a request?"
"Of course, if you want him to go out of the mountain, you must meet three requirements, first, you can drink and drink more than him, second, you must have capital, and third, you must be a young man who is both civil and military. Xiong Genglong's eyes purred, and he glanced at Ning Que suspiciously, this guy is somewhat probable.
Ning Que was even more puzzled.
Xiong Genglong laughed and explained: "Capital, that is, powerful and powerful, both civil and military, is to marry his granddaughter, otherwise why do you think you want to work for you?"
Ning Que was dumbfounded, this was the first time he had heard of this kind of thing, "Could it be that his granddaughter looks like a ghost?"
Xiong Genglong smiled faintly and snorted: "Ghost, that's also a ghost fairy, I met it five years ago."
, that figure, that skin, that hair, that breasts, that buttocks, it's just that", as the saliva spread down, "It's a pity, the fly in the ointment is that the natural face has been destroyed, alas, but it is also extremely beautiful." ”
Ning Que fell into deep thought for a while, and finally said lightly: "Let's take a step and see a step! I'll go and see if I can get one." ”
And at this time, Qinghe County has been full of wind and rain in the city, it is rumored that there is a magical island in the south, there are peaks in the island, standing alone, unattainable, strange flowers and plants in the island, flourishing but not declining.
Said to go, the two drove the fast horse towards the east of the city, galloping, through Qingyou County, near the river port, looking at the river on the face of the people, the boats are dense, all back and forth between Qinghe County and Qingyue County, big sails and small sails are all over, the breath is strong and weak, and a small boat is rented at will, the water is rippling layer by layer, Yingying waves, the gentle autumn breeze blows, there is a faint sweetness.
Xiong Genglong pointed fingers beside the big nose of the boatman, walked for a while, but was a little dizzy, one south, one north, and finally hurried, scratched his head, and said with a smile: "I don't remember very well, anyway, this is the piece, there is a small island." ”
Ning Que hated that iron could not become steel, and when the boatman next to him heard this, he had an idea, and said with a smile: "Two young masters, I know this place, but you see, how about a small business, how about a spirit stone for the guide fee?"
This guy is really good at sitting on the ground, and Xiong Genglong, who is usually a hairy man, can't wait to crush his stinky mouth, beat him violently, and actually blackmail him. Ning Que smiled undeniably and gave one casually.
When the man looked at it, his eyes lit up, and he immediately held it with both hands, and when he looked at these two people, one was as thin as a bamboo pole, and the other was so fat that he couldn't move, so he shot so generously, he thought carefully, scratched his head, and said with some embarrassment: "Young master, you see, there are some trips here, and the cost of this road is more than that, right?"
Ning Que's eyes narrowed, a little cold, and he took out another one and threw it over. The boatman's face was inexplicably surprised, his eyes were extremely bright, he paused the oars, and the thief smiled: "Young master, there is another one more for the travel fee." ”
Xiong Genglong couldn't bear it anymore, he twisted up the other party's shirt, kneaded it into a mess, and lifted it hard, the boatman was like a drowning fish, shaking helplessly, "Hehe, greed is not enough to swallow an elephant, one tael of gold is worth ten taels of silver, and a spirit stone is worth ten taels of gold, you move your fingers, you want such money, is it not afraid that you will have a life to take it, and you will not have a life to spend it?"
"Dog, let me go, otherwise you won't be able to eat and walk around, do you know who my brother-in-law is? My brother-in-law is the head of the Golden Snake Gang, if you move me, you will be left dead on the street tomorrow." The big-nosed boatman grabbed Xiong Genglong's shoulders with both hands and clamped his feet.
Xiong Genglong held his mouth, pushed away with a look of disgust, and stroked his sleeves.
The big nose fell on the bow of the boat, and his butt slammed heavily on the beam, and he was in pain, but when he saw that he let go of himself with interest, he thought that the other party was afraid, and he became more and more fierce, and his eyes were cold, "Hmph, it's good to know that it's wrong, just a few times, medical expenses."
Three spirit stones, otherwise you won't be able to see the sun tomorrow. ”
Ning Que stepped forward to stop him, and he didn't want to say more, the villain was difficult, so he went to meet the person first, and then said, took out five spirit stones, and the guy put a few more cruel words before stopping.
Two hours passed quickly, Xiong Genglong's anger has not disappeared, this guy, the courage is very fat, just a rocking boat, dare to blackmail him, really eat the bear's heart and leopard gall.
On the horizontal line, there is an island, not big, estimated to be dozens of zhang wide, the grass and trees on it grow luxuriantly, the colorful flowers bloom delicately, the trees are verdant and numerous, the birds sing and the flowers are fragrant, quiet and deep. There is a single peak erected in the middle, which looks extremely strong, like a pillar of optimus.
After a while, they approached, Ning Que turned his head and greeted him with a smile, "Little brother, there is one more thing to trouble you, we may have to stay here for a few days, you wait here, one more day, five spirit stones, how about it?"
The big nose smiled like a flower, so much money, it was the first time to see me when I grew so big, I couldn't earn so much in my life, and today was also a whim, seeing that these two people were dressed brightly and gorgeously, with a dignified appearance, and there was no shortage of money, they became greedy, and nodded again and again, "This relationship is good, but this position can be suspended? Although there is no danger, it is easy to get lost, you don't talk and don't count, my brother-in-law is the master of the Golden Snake Gang, if you don't keep your promises, you have to make the two of you suffer." Seeing Ning Que and the others walking away, he didn't forget to peek at the spirit stone at his waist a few times.
Ning Que held a wine jar, as soon as he stepped on the island, he felt unusual, full of vitality, the air was filled with the smell of essence, the cool autumn breeze was like a veil, with a hazy grace, gently falling on the face, extremely silky.
Xiong Genglong is still a little unsure, after all, this island has changed a lot, it is a few points wider than the memory, and the straight peak is a few points higher, but it is still a grass warbler flying, the jungle is picturesque, beautiful, following the vague memory, with Ning Que straight to the lonely peak that stands.
After walking for a few miles, he found that he was still separated by a few miles from there, like a mirage, which could only be viewed from a distance, and could not be blasphemed. ”
Xiong Genglong was also stunned, he had been here before, but he came with his father, and he landed directly here by birds and beasts, and there was no abnormality, he shook his head, "I didn't think there was a problem when I came?"
"It was with your father, these troubles will naturally be solved, don't you see that big nose saying that this place is weird? No wonder the other party didn't come up, and he didn't say anything before, should he still count the spirit stones of the two of us?"
Xiong Genglong looked resentful, "Hmph, sooner or later, I want that guy to look good." ”
