Zhong Yihan's heart is as warm as being blown by the spring breeze.

He came to the gate in person to greet this batch of sweet wine: "Brother Li personally escorted me, I am really ashamed!" ”

The eldest prince of a national mansion actually said to Li Xiao that he was "ashamed to be", Li Xiao was really "flattered", and hurriedly apologized and responded: "What did the eldest prince say!" The eldest prince helped the shopkeeper Lu a lot, and the shopkeeper Lu should give him wine. Please bring all this wine in! ”

"Menzi!" Zhong Yihan shouted, "Move all these sweet wines back to the cellar and hide them!" ”

Menzi went and called a few people to come over and carry the wine together.

Zhong Yihan said: "Reply to the shopkeeper Lu for me, thank her for the virtue of giving wine, and if you have time in the future, you will definitely come to the store to taste it in person!" ”

After sending Li Xiao away, Zhong Yihan opened one of the jars of mud, poured it into the wine jug, and then hid the half of the jar. He sat under the peach blossom tree, drinking sweet wine while looking at the peach and willow green in the yard. The beautiful scenery is in the eyes, the sweet wine is in the heart, half drunk and half drunk, Zhong Yihan seems to see Lu Xiyi's shadow among the peach trees.

Li Xiao sat in the Taiping car and rushed back to Xiaoyao Winery, and as soon as he arrived at the door, he heard a noisy sound. At a glance, there were many people coming in and out of the shop opposite, moving wooden planks and stoves, and they were puzzled, grabbing a running hall and asking, "What are you doing on the other side?" ”

"What else can you do, open a store!" Ran Tang answered truthfully.

Li Xiao asked again: "What kind of store to open?" ”

"Look at the appearance, it should be a wine shop." Rantang looked across the street.

Li Xiao's face sank suddenly. Opening a sake brewery on the opposite side, the meaning is already self-evident! It's going to be against the Easy Wine Workshop! That bastard is such a bastard? rubbed it, and Li Xiao held back the fire in his belly.

When he returned to the inside, he saw that Lu Xiyi was watching the fire, so he deliberately kicked a piece of firewood, and the firewood flew up and fell next to Lu Xiyi. Lu Xiyi turned his eyes to see that Li Xiao was puffing up.

"Li Xiao, what's wrong with you? Didn't I ask you to send wine to the eldest prince? Doesn't the eldest prince accept it? Lu Xiyi's face was full of doubts, if the eldest prince didn't accept it, she would be really embarrassed.

Li Xiao shook his head, and his voice was loud: "It's not about sweet wine, but someone is deliberately going against us!" ”

"Who?" Lu Xiyi's willow eyebrows furrowed.

Li Xiao pointed to the opposite side: "You go out and take a look, don't you know!" ”

Lu Xiyi walked outside with Li Xiao, and sure enough, he saw someone directly opposite him moving a wine vat into the store. Lu Xiyi immediately understood what Li Xiao meant. However, Lu Xiyi was not worried about this, and the corners of his mouth hooked up a faint smile.

"When people open a wine shop, let people open it, what are you angry about? Could it be that we can only open the whole capital? Lu Xiyi patted Li Xiao's shoulder, "I want to open up!" Besides, don't you have faith in our wine? ”

Li Xiao thought about it, Xiaoyao Wine Shop pays tribute jade ice to the palace every month, which is the biggest affirmation of Xiaoyao Wine Fang. Isn't it death to open a wine shop opposite the Xiaoyao Wine Workshop! At most three months, at least one month, the opposite winery will not be able to compete with the Xiaoyao winery and close down.

Thinking about it, Li Xiao finally smiled: "Shopkeeper Lu, I think too much!" ”

Lu Xiyi smiled, not that Li Xiao thought too much, but that Li Xiao was too straight!

"By the way, what did the eldest prince say after receiving the wine?" Lu Xiyi's biggest concern is not to open a winery opposite, but Zhong Yihan.

Li Xiao said: "Naturally, I accepted it!" He is grateful to the shopkeeper Lu! ”

"Is it just gratitude?" Lu Xiyi's eyes were hidden with a lost star.

At this time, Liu Ji walked in from the outside, his eyes were bright and snowy. As soon as he saw him, Lu Xiyi was scared and quickly turned around and left.

"What's wrong with Xiao Lu?" Liu Ji touched his nose, "Why did you leave as soon as you saw me?" ”

Li Xiao shook his head: "I don't know!" With that, he went to work.

The shop opposite was named "Zizai Brewery" and opened for business after three days of decoration. There is a notice outside, which is clearly written: The winemaker of this store is the master brewer of the palace, and the former head of the inner house, Mr. Lu!

As soon as the news spread, everyone came from the winery, blocking the entire street. The opposite side is lively, and the Xiaoyao Wine Shop is much more deserted.

Li Xiao pinched his chin and sat on the chair facing the door, a fly flying over his face. Syllable! But it didn't hit.

There was not a single guest, so I had to fight mosquitoes and flies.

Liu Ji was also a little worried, clasped his hands on his chest, leaned on the door frame, and looked at the opposite side for a while: "This Mr. Lu is just a big internal manager, and he can also make wine?" ”

In the winemaking industry, Lu Xiyi has never heard of the character of Mr. Lu, and thinks in his heart that everyone is just because he used to be the head of the inner house, giving him face to praise his field, but in fact, it is not because of how good the wine he makes. Therefore, Lu Xiyi is still confident in his wine.

"The opening is auspicious, everyone will go to get some joy, and tomorrow, our winery will return to its usual liveliness." When Lu Xiyi said this, he returned to the workshop disappreciably and continued to make wine. She had promised Huck to brew a thousand catties of jade ice roast, but now there were still more than two hundred catties missing.

Lu Xiyi's words did not reassure Liu Ji and Li Xiao.

"You look at the storefront, I'll go over!" Liu Ji pondered for a moment and said to Li Xiao.

Li Xiao said: "What did you do in the past?" ”

"Isn't it good to taste the wine on the other side, can you become the enemy of our Xiaoyao Distillery?" After Liu Ji said this, he walked over.

The free wine shop was crowded with people, but despite this, someone still came to greet Liu Ji: "Guest officer, please inside!" The other party hugged hands and was very respectful to Liu Ji.

Liu Ji raised his chin slightly, looked like an uncle, and walked into the store proudly.

The little second who greeted Liu Ji climbed upstairs and reported to Manager Lu in the pavilion: "Back to the manager, someone is coming from the other side!" ”

The so-called "opposite" naturally refers to Xiaoyao Wine.

Manager Lu laughed gloomily and looked at Mrs. Lu and Lu Ruoling who were sitting next to him: "Mrs. Lu, what did I say?" The people over there must not be able to hold their breath and want to come and taste my wine. Then he said to Xiao Er, "You will give him the best daughter in our winery, Hong, and scare him!" ”

Xiao Er agreed, went downstairs and sent Liu Ji a pot of daughter red according to the instructions of Manager Lu.

Mrs. Lu, Manager Lu, and Lu Ruoling deliberately sat in the pavilion on the second floor, observing the performance of Xiaoyao Distillery through the window. When they saw that there was not a single guest, the three of them couldn't help but smile proudly.

"Manager Lu, you really responded to that sentence, the veteran is out of the horse, a top two! Then where is Lu Xiyi your opponent! Mrs. Lu said with a smile.

Mr. Lu took a sip of tea, and his thin lips were filled with disdain: "Hmph, I thought it was who!" A yellow-haired girl, also so arrogant, no one in her eyes! That shop has a rent of dozens of taels of silver a day, and if the business is sluggish, I see how she can continue to open it! ”

Manager Lu finally relieved Lu Ruoling a little, but it was not enough. I saw her eyes staring straight at the Xiaoyao Wine Workshop, gritting her teeth.

"Ruoling, don't worry, in a few days, Lu Xiyi's store will be closed." Mrs. Lu comforted Lu Ruoling.

Lu Ruoling's eyes were scarlet: "Mother, I don't want Lu Xiyi's store to close, but I also want her to die!" ”

Liu Ji ate peanuts and tasted the daughter red of the free winery, which is really good. If you only look at the kind of wine that is red in her daughter, Lu Xiyi can't compare to Manager Lu.
