Chapter 31: An Kee Restaurant
Qin Tao admitted that Zhu Wen was a wise person.
It is not too much to describe him as wise and close to a demon.
When he was sent back to Beijing, Qin Tao told him that the manufacture of muskets would still be carried out.
The reason why the gun didn't fire last time has been found.
On this basis, improvements were made so that the musket would not be muted again.
Although Qin Tao said it tactfully.
But before Zhu Wen went to the room, he still patted Qin Tao's shoulder meaningfully.
"Qin Tao Xiaoyou, the old man wants you to participate in the imperial examination, if you can be selected to go to Beijing to take the exam, you can report that you are the old man's protégé."
I'll go!
Does this open the back door?
Qin Tao was quite surprised.
You must know that Zhu Wenzheng is the emperor's teacher, and now he is teaching the prince.
When he is a protégé, wouldn't it be on an equal footing with the emperor.
"Qin Tao, you are talented, and the old man is looking forward to seeing you in the capital."
Speaking of this, Zhu Wenzheng leaned over again and lowered his voice and said to Qin Tao: "In this musket incident, we are all chess pieces in your hands, and Liu Dahe, that idiot, died the most unjustly." ”
watched Zhu Wenzheng and his party leave.
Qin Tao saw the princess's sedan curtain open for a moment.
I vaguely saw the princess sticking her head out of the sedan chair.
Then they disappeared from sight.
The Liu family finally came to an end.
This year's land rent is free.
No one in the village mourned Liu Dahe.
Instead, they all smiled.
This year, everyone will no longer have to go hungry.
The days without the owner are still very comfortable.
Qin Tao returned home, took out the sorghum that he had stored a few days ago, and put it in the steamer.
There's something strange about this steamer.
It was created by Qin Tao some time ago.
For distilled spirits.
Sorghum liquor is distilled at high temperatures, and the yield is naturally lower.
But the taste is better.
I got a jar first, and went to the town's An Kee Restaurant in the afternoon.
Find the boss An Shiguo.
An Shiguo is a middle-aged man in his early forties.
White face without beard.
A face of businessman's shrewdness.
Seeing Qin Tao coming.
An Shiguo greeted him with a smile.
Let the guy bring good tea and entertain Qin Tao.
Qin Tao took a sip of tea, and then said: "Boss An, we are partners, my wine has made you kill all sides and earn a lot of silver." ”
"Thanks to your good wine, little brother."
An Shiguo smiled happily.
However, then An Shiguo changed his words and said: "But in recent days, the supply of alcohol has not been available, and you should have seen that there is such a long queue outside the gate." ”
"Don't talk about it, pay for my drinks first." Qin Tao said.
From the very beginning, An Shiguo never gave silver.
Qin Tao is here today.
"Brother Qin Tao, if you put 10,000 hearts, I won't play tricks with you if I rely on anyone's account."
An Shiguo heard that Qin Tao had gone to the door of the Liu family to ask for silver.
Liu Shichao didn't give it, and his leg was broken by Qin Tao.
The young master of the owner's family, he Qin Tao is not afraid, he is just a businessman who sells wine.
After eating the bear's heart and leopard gall, he didn't dare to rely on Qin Tao's silver.
The soft ones are afraid of the hard, the hard ones are afraid of the horizontal, and the horizontal ones are afraid of the dead.
Since ancient times, it has been the law of the jungle.
"Someone, bring the silver ticket." An Shiguo greeted.
Someone brought the silver ticket.
"Qin Tao, this is wine and silver, a total of three thousand five hundred taels."
Not bad!
Qin Tao probably calculated, the account was correct, and An Shiguo also gave more than a hundred taels.
"Refreshing!"
"I like to work with cheerful people."
"Boss An, I brought a jar of wine this time, which tastes better than last time."
Hear this.
An Shiguo's eyes lit up.
"Really?"
Qin Tao picked up the tea again and took a sip of it.
"Whether it's true or not, won't you know when you go out and taste it?"
An Shiguo was busy going out.
Open the jar.
A rich aroma of wine suddenly wafted out.
An Shiguo's ancestors also made wine, and they were sold with wine.
Small business.
It's just a breadwinner.
It was never expected that you would make a fortune selling alcohol.
Now he knows that it turns out that selling alcohol can also get ahead.
"Boss, what a fragrant wine!" Said the guy.
An Shiguo came back to his senses.
Ask.
Whether he was making wine or selling wine, he had never smelled such a mellow aroma of grain wine.
Can't wait.
Tasted it.
The shooting is amazing.
"Good wine, good wine."
The wine brought by Qin Tao this time is much better than last time.
Qin Tao held his hands behind his back.
Laugh at An Shiguo.
"The wine tastes good and the taste is correct, and that's because I added a process."
"Because of this process, the output of alcohol has been reduced a lot."
"As a winemaker with a sentiment, I only sell good wine."
Qin Tao forced him to be full.
"Yes, you're right, we only sell good wine." An Shiguo nodded frequently.
smiled at Qin Tao.
In An Shiguo's eyes, Qin Tao is the God of Wealth, and he is also a cash cow.
Before selling wine, the door was crowded.
Now in front of his shop, there is an endless stream of drinkers.
There are even a few restaurants that want to buy out the "Shuyun Daqu" sold by An Shiguo, but they were all rejected by An Shiguo.
If the wine is in your own hands, then the price is up to you.
This initiative, An Shiguo will not give up.
"Boss An, what price can you give for the current wine?" Qin Tao is very shrewd.
Relationships are relationships.
Honesty is integrity.
To do business, you must first be thin and then not ugly.
If you say ugly things in front, the road behind will be easy to walk.
Qin Tao was very clear about this.
"This ...... About the price! An Shiguo was in a dilemma for a while.
The wine he got from Qin Tao last time was calculated according to three hundred and seventy copper plates, that is, three hundred and seventy wen.
Sell it for 500 wen from him.
Sometimes the business is too good, and occasionally it will rise by 50 yuan.
And this time Qin Tao took the initiative to come over.
The drinks brought in are obviously up a notch.
Therefore, An Shiguo couldn't set the price for a while.
"If Boss An is embarrassed, you can think twice before giving me an answer." This is doing business, and Qin Tao will not be aggressive.
Business is not human.
Multiple friends, multiple paths.
You can't push people too hard, otherwise it will backfire.
"Qin Tao, I'll invite you to Luxi Restaurant."
The largest restaurant in Luxi Ancient Town is none other than Luxi Restaurant.
Qin Tao had never been in before.
He could recall that he had never entered Luxi's Restaurant before.
Even if you pass by the gate of someone's house and look up at it, your legs will be weak, and your inferiority complex will arise spontaneously.
The Qin Tao of the past no longer exists.
He rode a horse with An Shiguo and came to Luxi Restaurant together.
On the bolted horse stone outside the restaurant, the horse was tied.
Then the two of them walked into the restaurant.
The second child in the restaurant recognized An Shiguo, put a woolen hand towel on his shoulder, bent down and smiled and asked, "Boss An, please." ”
"Boss An, two! The second floor is a private room. ”
There are also fellows who sing loudly.
This is the rule of the restaurant, so as not to snub the guests.
