Although paper is very expensive, in order to expand his reputation, Qin Shou also gritted his teeth and bought a lot.

Because of this, he wondered whether he would build another paper workshop and monopolize Chang'an's paper at that time.

However, the paper-making process is time-consuming, and the idea can only be put on hold for the time being.

On this day, Baixiangfang has never been more lively.

How many people lined up at the door of the liquor shop, just waiting to open the door.

Some of the guests' families were impatient to wait, so they went to Baixiangfang for a stroll.

As a result, it has also attracted a lot of customers to Baixiangfang.

As soon as the doors of the restaurant opened, customers flocked in.

Fortunately, Qin Shou anticipated this situation and found a few temporary helpers near the tooth shop to maintain order.

Su Xiaofan, who was borrowed from Fang Yaoyi, was in charge of cashiering, Qin Shou Wang Liu was in charge of ordering and serving, and Chen Yi was in the back kitchen to help Zhang Sanniang.

Other temporary workers are responsible for maintaining order.

No surprises happened.

But it's still overcrowded.

At present, only the first and second floors are used for reception, and the third floor Qin Shou intends to make it a guest room, so it is temporarily idle.

But even so, a dozen tables are still full.

When he was busy working, Pei Lin arrived with the girl like a flower.

Qin Shou immediately remembered the previous gambling contract, and immediately sent someone to move a table over.

"Master Pei, don't come to harm." Qin Shou greeted him with a smile.

Pei Lin smiled with a smile on his face, and arched his hand: "Congratulations to Xiao Li Gongzidu for the reopening of the wine shop." ”

"I didn't bring any congratulatory gifts."

Saying that, Pei Lin untied the jade pendant on his waist, handed it out and said: "This jade pendant was obtained by accident back then, and I have been wearing it, so I will give it to Xiao Li Gongzi today." ”

Qin Shou stretched out his hand and hurriedly said, "My lord, this can't be helped. ”

Pei Lin pulled his cheeks, and suddenly felt that his hands were empty.

Looking at the jade pendant again, it has already fallen into Qin Shou's hands.

The latter said that he couldn't help it, and at the same time held the jade pendant in his hand.

Pei Lin shook his head with a smile and said, "By the way, is that kid from the Cheng family here?" ”

Qin Shou responded: "Not yet." ”

"I'll go get some food and drink, and I'll sit here and wait."

Pei Lin looked at the full hall of guests, nodded and said, "You go and greet the guests first." ”

After Qin Shou responded, he turned around and went to work.

It wasn't until noon that Cheng Chuliang and Chai Zhewen, the two second ancestors, came over slowly.

As soon as he saw Pei Lin and Ruhua waiting, he quickly put away his cynical appearance.

For the prime minister of the dynasty and the elders, Cheng Chuliang did not dare to make a mistake.

"I've seen Master Pei." Cheng Chuliang saluted, which is called a rule.

Pei Lin stroked his beard and smiled: "I thought you kid forgot about this." ”

Cheng Chuliang hurriedly said: "How dare the kid, always keep in mind the matter of gambling." ”

Pei Lin nodded.

Cheng Chuliang Chai Zhewen took a seat.

At this time, most of the guests are seated, and the dishes are gradually served.

Drink and talk, talk about the world, it's not lively.

At this moment, Qin Shou clapped his hands and said, "Everyone, next is the highlight of the opening of the store." ”

"Cheng Gongzi will test his wrist strength with Ruhua Girl, a total of three games and two wins."

With Qin Shou's words, everyone gathered their eyes on the table of Ruhua.

If no one knows Pei Lian, that's normal.

After all, he is in a high position.

And Ruhua is different, after all, it is one of the foundations of the Moon Shadow Pavilion's fame.

Pei Lin was originally full of confidence, but now he looked at Cheng Chuliang's kid and didn't panic at all.

There was also a sense of foreboding.

Seeing everyone's eyes gathered, Qin Shou walked to the table and said, "Please also invite Master Pei to preside." ”

Pei Lin nodded, stood up and said, "I won't say much about that gossip." ”

"Since everyone is looking forward to this competition, it is better to start directly."

"You two prepare."

Cheng Chuliang licked his lips, his face full of eagerness.

Since that day, he learned scriptures from Qin Shoufu, and it can be said that he has been immersed in hard practice.

even found his own father Cheng to bite the gold competition, although the result was a fiasco, but I have to say that that method really worked.

Although Cheng Yanjin said that this method is despicable, it is not a foul.

Palms to palm.

With Pei Lian's words, it sounded.

The last word fell, like a flower girl, suddenly exerted force, and Cheng Chuliang struggled to resist.

The faces of the two of them turned red, and they couldn't tell the other for a while.

But as time went on, Cheng Chuliang gradually couldn't resist.

After all, Cheng Chuliang is Cheng Biting Jin's son, so there is naturally no need to say much about physical strength.

Although it was not as good as Ruhua before, after this period of assault training, it can be regarded as growing fast.

But even so, the first game ended in failure.

A crowd of spectators applauded.

Pei Lin smiled: "Li Gongzi miscalculated." ”

But Qin Shou didn't panic at all, "My lord, just look at it." ”

After the two of them rested for a while, the second game began.

And this time, Cheng Chuliang quietly moved the elbow support point to his side, and his palm was close to his shoulder.

Convenient force.

For example, the flower girl's arm is obtuse angled, which makes it relatively difficult to force it.

So soon, Cheng Chuliang won this game.

As for the third game.

Cheng Chuliang used Qin Shoujiao's hooking technique and won easily.

These moves are all used by modern wrist wrenches, and there are some cheating techniques.

But the reason why Cheng Chuliang was able to win was mainly because although there was a gap between the two, it was not big, and it was necessary to use some skills to win.

If the gap is too big, in the face of absolute strength, any skill may be on paper.

Cheng Chuliang smiled.

Chai Zhewen had a bitter face.

Cheng Chuliang patted Chai Zhewen on the shoulder and said, "Forget it, you don't need to call grandpa." ”

"Just treat me to a few more meals."

Cheng Chuliang is not stupid, everyone is the second ancestor of Chang'an, and he can't look up and see him when he looks down.

The most important thing is face.

If it's private, it's okay to laugh and scold each other a few words beyond the seniority, anyway, no one knows.

But here it's different.

You have to save face with each other.

Pei Lian's face darkened.

Qin Shou smiled and said, "Master Pei, I am willing to gamble." ”

"You see I'm still missing an account room at this counter, or..."

Unimportant plots, ready to be quickly pushed past

West City of Chang'an.

Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling, as well as some other officials with good relations, went straight to the wine shop.

Because of Qin Shou's special status, coupled with the news that His Majesty wants to recognize his relatives, it is boiling in the court.

So the two did not go alone, but pulled some other colleagues to avoid rumors of falling behind.

On the other side, a luxurious carriage came from the opposite side, and looking at the emblem on it, it was a carriage from the eldest grandson's family.

Towards the end of the evening, the bustle of the wine shop cooled down a little.

Compared to the excitement at the beginning, there are obviously many fewer people now.

For some reason, Cui Fuli, the head of the Cui family in Chang'an, said that he was going to come, but there was no one to see until now.

I think it was Li Shimin who recently sent people to attack the Cui family in Chang'an, and Cui Fuli was tired of coping with it, and he had no time to withdraw. After Du Ruhui and the others got off the car, one person also got off the carriage of the eldest grandson's family.

It's none other than the elder brother of the queen of the dynasty, the eldest grandson of Wuji, who was the secretary of the ministry at the time.

Speaking of which, the eldest grandson Wuji is also quite helpless.
