Chapter 7: Young man
At night, the lights in Handan City are beating, inside and outside the wine shop, the aroma of wine is strong, but the atmosphere is obviously stagnant and tense.
Only from the second floor of the wine shop was discussing Lu Buwei and Yingyiren, who were about to escape from Zhao State, and they didn't want to meet each other and ran into the two people with the most status and power in Zhao State.
Jiang Taiyi also looked at these people with a smile in his eyes.
Lian Po was obviously replaced from the Changping battlefield in the battle with the Qin army, and at this time, he looked at Ying Yiren's eyes, which were completely cold.
But obviously, Guo Kai and Gongziyan didn't think so.
Especially Guo Kai, a minister, after he saw Ying Yiren, he glanced at Lian Po again, as if he thought of something, and said:
"I said how could the old general stop at this wine shop for no reason, it turned out that there was the king and grandson of Qin waiting for you in the wine shop, I heard that the old general may have an affair with Qin State, so he refused to fight on the Changping battlefield, and now it seems that it is not groundless."
Lian Po's face was dark, he just glanced at Guo Kai, and said, "The old man doesn't know that the son of the Qin State is here, it's just drinking." ”
As he spoke, he glanced at Ying Yiren, whose face had obviously become panicked, and was slightly suspicious in his heart, but he didn't think much about it, just said to Jiang Taiyi and the shopkeeper at the counter:
"Your house full of fragrant wine, bring an altar to the old man."
The shopkeeper said hurriedly: "The old general will wait a minute, and he will bring it immediately." ”
At this time, Gongzi Yan on the frame was also seduced by the smell of wine, and said indifferently: "Prepare ten jars of wine for this son to take away." ”
Inside the liquor store.
Some people couldn't help but look up at the shopkeeper, and they all wanted to see the reaction of the shopkeeper.
It seems that you have only been talking about it a long time ago......
The wine sold only one jar a day.
Now they want to see if there are still such rules in front of such noble figures as princes and nobles and old commanders on the battlefield.
There were obviously some beads of sweat on the face of the shopkeeper.
Indeed, he just said that he only sells one jar of wine a day, but now, do you want to offend the prince of the royal family and the old general Lian Po?
Guo Kai saw that the shopkeeper did not move, and he already sneered: "Are you a dog's ear, didn't you hear Gongzi say that he wanted ten jars of wine, why don't you go quickly?" ”
The shopkeeper sighed in his heart.
In the face of the pressure of the princes and nobles, they had to bow their heads, but they could only break their promises and get fat, and slapped themselves in the face, so they were embarrassed and didn't dare to look at the drinkers in the store, so they lowered their heads and prepared to move the wine.
Unexpectedly, the palm of his hand came to his body again.
Hold him down.
It's Jiang Taiyi, with a gentle but firm voice.
"I'm sorry, our store has just set up a rule, the wine you want, only sells a jar of ten catties every day, and it has already sold a catty, and now there are only nine catties left in this jar, and today only sells these, more, not selling."
The shopkeeper looked at the owner next to him in disbelief.
Everyone in the wine shop also looked at the young proprietor of the wine shop in white in disbelief, he stood on the counter so casually, pressed his hand on the wrist of the shopkeeper who was about to go to drink, and even when he replied, he didn't look at the two nobles outside the store, just smiled faintly and flipped through the account book on the counter.
Guo Kai suddenly became furious, and said coldly: "Do you know what you are talking about, the prince of the royal family wants to buy your wine, it is a blessing for your broken shop, you don't think about the honor, you dare not sell it?!" ”
Unexpectedly, the young proprietor in white just smiled and turned his head, looking at Guo Kai, mainly at the son-in-law behind Guo Kai, and said:
"The rules of our store are like this, we only sell one jar of ten catties of wine every day, and we don't sell too much, and we don't sell when we sell out."
After saying this, he looked at the account book again and said leisurely:
"Since the rules have been set, let alone the son outside the store, even if the monarch of the Seven Kingdoms is here, he will not sell it, and he will still not sell it."
"Arrogance! Rude! Daring! ”
Guo Kai said coldly:
"Come on, smash this store for me!"
The shopkeeper's brain was buzzing, and he didn't expect his own owner to be so domineering, and the rules he set casually were really so unchangeable, even in the face of the royal family.
Even Lu Buwei and Ying Yiren, who were not far away, were shocked.
Lu Buwei called Ma in his heart:
"This Brother Jiang, don't you know that we are engaged in business and sales, even if we are rich, how can we be qualified to fight against the high-ranking officials of the Shi clan, let alone a more noble royal family?"
In his life, it was because he tasted the helplessness of being a businessman, no matter how rich and rich he was, in the eyes of the scholars who held power, he was nothing after all, so he was angry and wanted to ask for a chance to become a high-ranking official.
Not to mention.
He and Ying Yiren are now preparing to discuss escaping from Zhao State, at this time, offending the Zhao royal family, this is not taking the initiative to touch the knife.
This Brother Jiang......
Sonorous!
The armor masters who followed Gongzi Yan were already ready to rush into the wine shop.
Ying Yiren's legs were shaking.
Just when Lu Buwei was about to step forward directly to beg for mercy and make Jiang Taiyi bow his head.
"Wait!"
Lian Po put his hands behind him, as if the mountains were heavy, he stood in place, the old voice, but like a heavy hammer exploded, the sound rolled, with his deep anger.
A grandmaster's true qi or the river drummed, supporting the old general's clothes and dancing without wind:
"This place is the capital of Handan, the city is full of the king's people, and the prince is the identity of the royal nobles, Guo Kai, as the son of the prince, dare to let the prince do this unkind thing, the dignified royal son, even because of a trivial matter, he smashed the people's wine shop, this spread out, how will the people of the world view my Zhao country, how to view the royal blood of Zhao country, is it, my son of Zhao country, is the ruffian and hooligan of that place?"
Guo Kai was furious and hurriedly looked at Gongziyan.
The boy in the car was already shaking his face and his lips trembling.
Lian Po said in a deep voice: "Childe, Guo Kaishi beside you bewitched Gongzi to do unjustified and unkind acts, which is really a big crime, and after asking Gongzi to go back, he will be severely punished." ”
"Lian Po, you!" Guo Kai gritted his teeth.
"Alright." Gongzi Yan scolded Guo Kai coldly, then glanced at Lian Po deeply, and said, "The old general is really thinking about this son." ”
Lian Po's old face was as calm as water: "The old minister is only thinking about Zhao Guo. ”
"General Lian is indeed a loyal minister, and he has a heart."
After Gongziyan finished speaking, he got on the curtain of the hitchhiker and said lightly:
"Don't drink anymore, let's go."
Guo Kai wanted to say more, but he could only have the courage to speak up to Lian Po when Gongzi Yan was by his side, and he was very sure in his heart that if he was not by Gongzi's side, the old Lian Po with the strength of the grandmaster would definitely dare to grab his neck and collar with one hand, and then throw himself out.
After Childe's carriage and horse left.
Lu Buwei and Ying Yiren both breathed a sigh of relief.
The shopkeeper hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Thank you to the old general, if the old general still wants wine, what he sold today, although it is less than ten catties per jar, there are nine catties, but they are all given to the old general." ”
Lian Po stretched out his hand and swung it, glanced at the white-clothed shopkeeper more, then looked at Ying Yiren, and said casually: "Since it is only sold ten catties a day, if the old man sells them all, what will the others do, just come and take two catties away." ”
"Good, good." The shopkeeper immediately went to fill two small jars of Moutai.
Lian Po, who was carrying two jars of wine, only looked at Ying Yidao: "Prince of Qin, why is he in this wine shop today?" ”
Ying Yiren was nervous.
Can he say that he wants to negotiate an escape from Zhao?
Jiang Taiyi on the counter spoke, smiled faintly, and said, "Gongzi Ying and Brother Lu are my friends, but they often come to meet with me." ”
When Lian Po heard this, he didn't ask much, but just chuckled at Jiang Taiyi: "Young man, it's too sharp, it's not good." ”
As he spoke, he took two jars of wine and drove away.
Jiang Taiyi looked at the account book, just listening to the three words "young man" when Lian Po left, and was stunned.
