Chapter 14: The Merchant's Plan (3)
On that day, Yin Qin left from Zhao and went straight to Chu. still with the carriage team, but this time I don't know what to do with the baby.
From word of mouth to mouth in various countries, the people of Lanling Chu are simple and simple, and they are good wine. On this day, Lanling ushered in a big wine merchant.
With his entourage, he opened up a large open space in the city where people came and went, and hurriedly set up a platform and set up a platform.
'Knock knock...... Knock knock, a noisy gong sounded from the stage.
Seeing that there were more and more onlookers, he waved his hand diligently, and the sound of gongs and drums stopped in the sky.
With both hands arched, he bowed to the bottom of the platform, got up and said: "Fellow fathers and fellow villagers, Yin's businessman passed by this precious place, and it is Yin's honor to have a fate to gather here today." Since it was fate, Yin specially brought all kinds of fine wine from his hometown, and also presented mysterious things. Special game, three times two wins. ”
There are many good deeds in the audience, but they saw the diligence of a scholar, and felt that life was boring. The back of the departure, when listening to the word wine, turned back suddenly, and his eyes were already glowing green, and even more varied, and his mouth was simply a waterfall straight down 3,000 feet.
When someone exclaims, "What are the rules, how do you win good wine?" I'll announce it soon. A big man with a rosacea nose was patting his big belly and shouting at the stage. There was a look of eagerness on his left and right.
Yin Qin cleared his throat, coughed and said: "The competition is divided into two types: one is the literary test, and the other is the martial test. The two kinds of competition are divided into three levels, those who pass the first level can get a pot of 'Tu Su', and those who pass the second level can get a pot of 'Autumn Dew White' and those who have passed the three levels can get a pot of 'Monkey Brew'. In addition, there is another point, those who have passed the civil and military affairs, the mysterious things, can get a glimpse, if so, the very brilliant, the mysterious things, can get a share of the ten. ”
Before the courteous words fell, there was a gasp under the "......". Then a discussion ensued.
"'Tu Su', it is said to be the health medicine wine of the master of God, which can dispel the cold in the body and has a miraculous effect on avoiding the plague. Fangzi has long been lost, and today not only can you see it, but you may be able to win one. ”
"There is also that 'autumn dew white', as the name suggests, made from autumn dew, the autumn dew is scarce, no matter how much manpower and material resources are consumed, it is also an unattainable thing, how can this little businessman be so generous."
"What's more, 'monkey brew', ten thousand gold is rare, it is said that it is made by monkeys, in the winter to reserve food, all kinds of fruits are stored in the tree hole, because the monkey as an animal, you can find a tree that can store fruits for a long time, and then hide it secretly, after a winter, the fruit will become a kind of tree hole fruit wine after washing the aura of heaven and earth, and the local people will call it 'monkey brew'. This wine is even more rare, what kind of origin does this merchant come from, and he even shoots this one. ”
"Alas, what are these? You remember the big thing that followed. Something mysterious. I'm very curious," said one of them, shaking his head and shaking his head.
I heard the discussion of everyone in the audience, and I knew that it was time to be hot. Again and again. said to the audience: "May I ask which brother Tai, can you dare to go on stage and give it a try." ”
This car was in full swing, and the people under the stands turned around and left quietly, except for the courtesy, no one noticed the movement here.
"I'd like to go on stage and give it a try." A reply drew back his attentive gaze. It turned out that this person was the rosacea man just now. In a jump, the big man got on the stage.
He hurriedly asked, "This brother, is it a literary test or a martial arts test?" ”
The rosacea man muttered loudly: "Uncle, I can't learn how to write, fighting and killing is my strength." ”
He answered attentively: "It turns out that this brother Tai is a martial arts test. Three martial arts trials, just beat the three behind me. ”
With the courteous words, everyone looked up behind him, and it turned out that the three muscular people they had just seen were actually candidates for this martial arts test.
"Yin San, in the first game, you will have to compete with this brother." Before he went to sit down on the side, he commanded.
If so, only Na Yin San and the rosacea man were left on the stage, and the two saluted each other, made a 'please' gesture, and attacked each other with a thunderous attitude.
Fists to the flesh, tricks and afterimages, playing that is called a tiger and a tiger, the two of you come and go for a few rounds, Yin San seems to be invincible, showing a trend of defeat and retreat.
When he retreated again, Yin San arched his hand and said, "Admit defeat in the next." ”
Yin Qinfu came to the stage and announced loudly: "In the first round, Brother Chen won." "Brother Chen is talking about this rosacea.
"Brother Chen, this is the first round of 'Tu Su', will you continue to compete or..."
"Goo Dong Goo Dong...", the big man surnamed Chen, just arrived, he couldn't wait to drink it all, with a fascinated face and endless aftertaste.
The big man surnamed Chen wiped his mouth, swayed, and got off the stage. Yin Qin then squinted and smiled at everyone.
"Haha~ Which other brother came up to give it a try?"
"Hehe~ The old man is late, the next Wenbi, the old man wants to give it a try."
An old man with a few family members accompanied him, with a bit of kind eyebrows, touched his gray beard, and asked with interest.
The scholar who was shaking the paper fan before, when he saw the old man, his eyes suddenly dilated, he could put an egg in his mouth, and withdrew the leg that stepped out and was ready to take the stage.
Among the entourage, he found the family who had gone and returned, the corners of his mouth were raised, and his smile was sincere. He saluted the old man and said, "Old man, this is just the beginning, you are not too late, please come to the stage." ”
"Dare to ask the old man, what kind of competition are you participating in?"
"Old man, old man. Arms, legs and feet are not obedient, only the brain is quite flexible. Let's give it a try today. ”
"Old man, please listen well, this first question: 'On the grounds of Tusu wine', write three poems."
The old man sighed slightly: "Listen, the old man's first song is 'I don't feel that the veteran is coming in spring, and I am even more sad to join hands with several people.'" will also be lonely and ashamed, and let Tu Su be a young man. ’”
"The second song: 'Life is exhausted with the year, and the body is forgotten with the world. There is no resurrection of Su Meng, and the night is not young. ’”
"The third song: 'Every year, I drank Tu Su at the end, and I didn't realize that I had been more than seventy years old.'" ”
"Good, good, good, the old man is really good." One after another, there were cheers.
With a straight face, he stepped forward and said, "The old man is brilliantly written, and this first question has been passed." This 'Tusu wine' is a pot for you. "And the old man's poetry is beautiful, and it can't help but be cool in my heart, and I need to deal with it calmly."
The old man neither nodded nor shook his head at this. He asked, "What kind of teaching is this second question?" ”
He touched a soft nail and didn't care, so he smiled and said, "This second question is ......?"
