In the following days, the city of Jinling was very quiet.

It was as if what had happened in the Fu family's mansion that night had never happened.

The people of the five great families gritted their teeth and offered money and food with a smile on their faces. At the same time, they donated money and food to the governor's palace, the exact amount of which is unknown.

But there are many people who are watching the large and small carriages going to the Jiangnan Provincial Government Camp outside the city in an endless stream, and the governor Qin Ruhai, as an old man in the officialdom, has long been an old man, how can he leave people with the handle of taking bribes.

These are all the family assets dedicated by the wealthy businessmen, big families, and officials and gentry in Jinling City in order to exterminate the Yin and Yang Evil Sect as soon as possible.

He, Qin Ruhai, will not embezzle, at least not on the surface.

On the other side, Xu Fan settled down the people of Xufu on Xuanwu Street, and took Zi'er to live in Jingyue Garden together.

At first, Zi'er was unwilling, Jingyue Garden was a green building, and it was also a famous green building in Jinling City.

Xu Fan said that she was going to practice there, as an attendant maid, how could she not stay by Gongzi's side and let Gongzi stay alone in that kind of rouge and gouache place.

Well, she didn't want to watch the girl in the dress, she just wanted to take care of her son-in-law.

Childe is now a monk, and he can't go to anyone. In this way, Zi'er persuaded herself in her heart instead of asking for pajamas.

On this day, Zi'er was helping the young master peel the grape skin in the outer courtyard of the small building by the lake, and the crystal clear grape flesh was moist and full in the sun, which was very attractive.

Xu Fan leaned on the bamboo chair, shook the dilapidated gourd in his hand, waved his hand casually, and sent the front yard steward who complained to him.

The steward's name was Liu Xing, a shrewd man in his early thirties, with a clear eye and a delicate beard.

The position in front of Xu Fan was very good, and he was willing to be a dog and horse, and when the other Jingyue Yuan stewards were still riding the wall and watching, Liu Xing was the first to stand up.

But whatever he wants, he will spare no effort to find it, even if it is to put some money upside down, to meet the needs of this new master.

What's more, Xu Fan's needs are still very simple and simple, that is, as long as wine, fine wine, all the fine wines in Jinling City that have been brewed for ten years, no matter whether they are famous or not, he wants them.

At first, Liu Xing was secretly ridiculed by the rest of the stewards.

But now, the rest of the stewards can only obey Liu Xing's actions.

That night, although the events that happened in the Fu family's mansion were only spread in the upper circles of Jinling City, how could the Qinglou, which was a place of rouge and gouache like Jingyue Garden, not have the slightest rumor?

After that night, Liu Xing was frightened for several days, for fear that the forces behind Jingyue Yuan's original would come to find trouble.

The rest of the stewards had the mentality of watching jokes, planning to see how Liu Xing died. The Fu family, who offended the five great families, how could they still be alive in Jinling City?

Even if the Fu family doesn't do it himself, those forces under him, as well as the forces and people who want to cling to the Fu family, will swallow the Xu family alive

In the past few days, the children of the Xu family's third and fourth rooms have been holding their tails in Jinling City, and they don't even dare to go out, just for fear of being beaten in the back.

Even so, some small businesses and small shops in Jinling City have been greatly affected, and they have been maliciously provoked by many green-skinned scoundrels.

For this reason, the people in the third and fourth rooms of the Xu family came to Jingyue Garden several times, and they all asked Xu Fan to go to the Fu family in person to apologize, so as to obtain the Fu family's forgiveness.

These people, every time they come, are received by Liu Xing and sent to the lakeside building.

Xu Fan was just walking under the lakeside gazebo, listening to the sound of boiling tea and the complaints of the children on the side.

is already a sideline uncle and clan elder who have divided the family, Xu Fan is not easy to refute the face of the elders, although he doesn't like it in his heart, but his face still shows an open and obedient look.

That's it, after everyone leaves.

Xu Fan still asked Liu Xing to buy all kinds of fine wines, and as for the other stewards who didn't come, he didn't care.

Everyone has their own aspirations, and he will not force them.

In such an environment, Liu Xing in Jingyue Yuan was not less squeezed and ridiculed by his family in private, but fortunately, he persevered in the end.

Glancing back, a new batch of wine was transported into the cellar, Xu Fan nodded with satisfaction, with a faint smile on his face, "Liu Xing, why aren't you like them?" ”

As he spoke, Xu Fan also glanced in the direction of the front yard of Jingyue Garden on the other side of the lake.

Liu Xing knelt on the ground in fear, his forehead stuck to the bluestone floor under his feet, and the coolness that soaked into his skin slowly poured into his head along the bluestone floor.

"The most important thing to be a subordinate is to be faithful. Since Liu Xing chose to follow the adult, he naturally would not be bewitched by others. I know that adults will not believe in my loyalty so easily, I just hope that adults will give me this opportunity, and I will show you the sincerity. ”

Liu Xing continued to stick his forehead on the bluestone floor, obedient and humble, and his body did not dare to tremble at all.

This skill was something he had been learning since his first day in the Pure Moon Garden. Starting from the bottom, he knows that every opportunity is not easy to come by.

"Faithfulness is not so easy to see." Xu Fan got up slowly, sat on the bamboo chair, looked down at Liu Xing who was kneeling on the ground with his head sideways, picked up a grape flesh, tasted it slowly, and said vaguely, "However, you are doing your best to buy all kinds of fine wine for me every time, and I see this in my eyes." ”

"As for the others, leave them alone. Do your part, and don't care what others think. As long as you do a good job of buying drinks, I will not treat you badly. ”

The reason why he chose Liu Xing was because he liked that the other party was very handy in purchasing wine.

A few times before, Xu Fan asked others to do this, whether it was the new steward recruited by the Xu family on Xuanwu Street, or the other stewards in Jingyue Garden, they all did not do satisfactorily.

Either the quality of the drink is poor, or the amount of alcohol is insufficient.

It is not enough for the massive belly of the dilapidated gourd, and Xu Fan is also worried about this matter.

If he could rob it, he would have robbed it a long time ago. It's a pity that Mu Yunliang and those people are staring here.

Later, I learned that some people learned that he needed a lot of good wine, so they secretly manipulated and lured those who were in charge, or intimidated the family members of those in charge.

Xu Fan also went to check it in person, but those who did things on the surface were dead men and could not find the roots.

At first, he was also suspicious of Liu Xing.

No matter how other people do things, they will get into trouble, but nothing like this will happen to him.

Later, I learned that Liu Xing's family had a huge winery in Jinling City. It was precisely because of this that he was qualified to enter the Pure Moon Court to seek an errand.

"Thank you, sir."

Liu Xing kowtowed his head heavily, and knocked out a shallow mark on the bluestone floor tiles under his forehead.

Liu Xing encountered a lot of resistance in the family, but he was blocked back by the clan elders of his lineage.

As the Liujia Distillery that supplies Jinling's major markets, restaurants, and Fengyue places, there are several large winemaking workshops around Jinling.

There are even several big wineries in other provinces in the south of the Yangtze River, if it was before, even if the Liu family was given ten dares, they would not dare to do this kind of thing that offended the Fu family.

But now it is different, the Jiangnan Provincial Governor's Office sent government soldiers to strictly investigate at various checkpoints in Jiangnan Province, and launched an encirclement and suppression in some places.

"Our Liu family will definitely be sent by adults in the future, I hope that adults can give Liu Xing a chance."

"You're sitting crooked enough." Xu Fan chuckled, raised his hand, and motioned for Liu Xing to stand up.

Liu Xing stood up with difficulty, and he only glanced at some dust on the knees of the hem of the brocade robe, and bent his body respectfully, "The adult said and laughed. For this kind of opportunity rewarded by adults, how could Liu Xing let you down. ”

"It's impossible to talk about disappointment or disappointment, but you have a heart." Xu Fan's right index finger lightly tapped the armrest of the bamboo chair, and his tone was easy-going, not at all like a great monk, "Since this is the case, I will not refuse." ”

He cleared his throat and continued. "I also sent someone to investigate, your Liu family has several wineries around Jinling, how many wines are there now?"

"Your Excellency is asking all the breweries?" Liu Xing was excited in his heart, he didn't know why Xu Fan wanted so much wine and what he was going to do, since the person in front of him who had the strength of a great monk needed their Liu family, this was his Liu Xing's chance.

"Now in Jinling City, there are a total of thirteen Liujia wineries, and there is a Liujia winery in each market. There are probably 12,653 jars of wine of all kinds. ”

"Twelve thousand six hundred and fifty-three altars?" Xu Fan frowned slightly, staring at Liu Xing, remember so clearly? It seems that he really has a heart, and this person's wish is not small.

"Outside the city?"

"Outside the city, there is a small winery in each of the five counties around Jinling City, but most of the wine in those places is newly brewed, and the year may not be enough."

"Seven years, eight years will do."

Liu Xing raised his eyes slightly, and glanced at Xu Fan, who looked like usual, I don't know what he is going to do when he asks this? The newly brewed wine, if the age is not enough, the taste is definitely not good.

Ponder for a moment, without hesitation, "Count seven, eight, nine, and ten years." There should be 5,701 wine shops outside the city. ”

Xu Fan just let out a soft "oh", obviously not very satisfied with this amount. There is not as much liquor as there is in the city of Shisanfang in Jinling City.

He didn't know that the Liu family was just a small winery in Jinling City, and the reason why the Liu family's winery was able to gain a foothold in Jinling was mainly because it was under the protection of the family.

Even so, it is impossible for the Liu family to make wine on a large scale, which is too wasteful of food.

The Daqian Imperial Court would not allow it, let alone let the Liu family monopolize the wineries in the south.

As if seeing Xu Fan's thoughts, Liu Xing cautiously and tentatively said, "My lord, if you feel that it is not enough, Liu Xing is willing to go to other provinces to buy it for your lordship." Our Liu family still knows some friends in the winery. I just don't know how much wine adults need? ”

Hearing this, a bright color flashed in Xu Fan's eyes, and there was not much time left for him.

Last time, he and Mu Yunliang secretly slapped each other, and the two sides already knew the importance of proportion. Mu Yunliang no longer mentioned Xu Fan's joining Diaoyutai, and Xu Fan also appropriately restrained, and did not deliberately target the Yin Yang Evil Sect or other families.

Speeding up the recovery of the dilapidated gourd was his top priority, and if he continued to open up cyclone holes in the Purple Mansion, it would be a waste.

Now he only needs to use the two cyclone points in the Purple Mansion to continue to cultivate his body and muscles.

If you open up the cyclone hole again, when you leave this place, you will have to disperse your work. If you are not careful, it will also cause unnecessary trouble. The Terran Cultivation Continent may not be peaceful.
