Chapter 77: Can't afford to drink

The Chunmu River is a famous river in Jizhou, and it has the longest section of the meandering river in Chunhuifu, and also passes through many provinces in Liuzhou, and as a boundary marker, it passes through the other two large states, and finally joins the sea.

The section of the river leading from the Jiudaokou of Desheng Mansion to Chunhui Mansion is relatively straight, especially in this season, the southeast wind is smoother, and the time to go to Chunhui Mansion from the direction of Desheng Mansion is very short.

Except for the first night when someone fell into the water, there was a big herring that opened the wisdom to save people and beg for wine, and there were no twists and turns in the next two days of sailing, enjoying or listening to the sound of the mountains and forests along the way, and seeing the big pier outside the city of Chunhuifu in the early morning of the fourth day.

The closer you get to the Chunhuifu Grand Wharf, the more boats there are, from single boats to building boats, from passenger and cargo ships to fishermen's fishing boats, and its busyness is not comparable to that wharf in Jiudaokou County.

The passengers all stood outside the cabin and looked out, and behind the pier they could see the towering walls of Chunhuifu Castle and the buildings inside that were a little higher than the city walls.

Approaching the city of Chunhuifu, the wind became lighter, the young boatmen had begun to rock, and the boatmen also turned their eyes from the state of looking at the city.

The noise on the dock is also becoming more and more obvious, loading and unloading, boarding and disembarking passengers, and the boat where Ji Yuan is located has found a berth on the edge and slowly docked the ship.

By this time, everyone who had been with us for three days knew that they were going to separate, and the fare had already been settled on the day of departure, so they could disembark at any time.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the Jiang Shrine is located on the south side of the East City, you can see it if you don't go straight to the south without entering the city, it can be regarded as a scene of this Chunhuifu City, if you are free, you can go and worship the Jiang God Master!"

The old boatman tied the cable, smiled and suggested to everyone who wanted to get off the boat, this boat is smooth, mainly for the passengers on the boat, comfortable!

"Okay, I'll take a look!"

"Yes, I will definitely go and worship a stick of incense!"

"See you soon!"

......

Ji Yuan also gave his hand to the boatman at the dock like others, and the two fathers and sons of the boatman did not have the need to go to the city, so they would buy some things on the spot at the dock, and the boat would be cleaned and hung up with the sign of Desheng Mansion Jiudaokou, and a little bit of passers-by should be taken home.

The six people on the boat walked out of the dock together, and one of the scholars immediately asked about Ji Yuan.

"Mr. Ji, my classmates and I are going to take a tour of Chunhuifu City, and then visit the Jiang Shrine, if Mr. has no arrangements, you might as well go with me?"

"Yes, Mr. Ji!"

Ji Yuan looked at these people, and he also arched his hand.

"Thank you for your kindness, Ji Mou is still in trouble, everyone is in the same boat, he will meet again in the future, Ji Mou will say goodbye here!"

Several people said goodbye to each other and went towards their destinations, and Ji Yuan took a step first, his steps became faster and faster, and after a while, no one was gone.

"Today is the twelfth day of May, I wonder if Wei Wuxing has already arrived at Chunhui Mansion and is ready?"

With this kind of thinking in mind, the first thing to look for is which restaurant in the city has a famous wine, to see how delicious it is, which can attract the old turtle out.

After all, Ji Yuan has never seen any big world in this world, and the most drunk is the Huadiao jar wine in Ning'an County, but that wine is available everywhere, and it is not a rare thing.

Anyway, if you wait near the South City Gate before May 15th, you should always be able to find Wei Wudang, after all, Ji Yuan's hearing, familiar people can distinguish it from afar.

As for Wei Wuxing's idea of seeing the old turtle, Ji Yuan didn't plan to show up in a fresh mind, after all, it was estimated that in addition to the Wei family, it was the "public master" of that night.

However, even if Ji Yuan wanted to show up, it was actually okay, anyway, in Wei Wuxing's eyes, he was also a master, and it would not be abrupt for the master to know this.

。。。

The prosperity of Chunhui Mansion has passed through Ning'an County and Jiudaokou, with poor eyesight and excellent hearing and smell, Ji Yuan is still like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden when he walks around in the city.

After inquiring for a long time, Ji Yuan finally found the wine shop in front of him called Yuanzipu, and a faint aroma of wine seemed to show that the name of this store was worthy of its name.

The wine shop is not very big, there is no second floor, there are only a few tables inside, there are not many people who buy wine and drink wine, only the two tables in the corner are eating and drinking wine, and this wine is not like the dish of the wine shop, more like its own, because it is wrapped with lotus leaves.

However, there are a lot of people in the shop, but they are all resting on a few empty tables, and the shopkeeper is constantly moving the abacus behind the counter, "crackling" at the ledger.

"Shopkeeper, I heard that your Qianri Spring is a famous wine that has no other semicolon in Chunhui Mansion, I don't know how much a pot it costs?"

Ji Yuan entered the store and asked the shopkeeper, who looked up at him after counting the counts at hand.

"Our store only sells two kinds of wine, two taels of silver for a thousand days and a catty, the whole jar can be discounted a little, and Jianghua wine is one hundred dollars for a jar, and there are five catties. ”

"Two taels?"

Ji Yuan was surprised, this price is not a star and a half, two taels are enough to eat how many meals, it seems that not only in the previous life there was wine for the noble dead, but there should be no shortage in this life!

"The guest officer wants Jianghua wine?"

The shopkeeper continued to calculate the accounts, and his voice did not fluctuate, which made Ji Yuan a little embarrassed.

"Uh, shopkeeper, since this Qianrichun can be dismantled and sold in bulk, can you buy a cup and taste it?"

"A cup?"

This kind of request is really rare, mainly no one really has this face in the garden shop, and the shopkeeper can't help but raise his head to take a closer look at Ji Yuan.

Wide-sleeved gray robe, mahogany hairpin on his head, carrying a burden and an umbrella, dressed plainly and neatly, his hairstyle seems to be casual but surprisingly natural, not like a rich man but not like a troublemaker, when he saw that he only opened half of his eyes, the shopkeeper was obviously slightly stunned.

"Did the guest officer just come to Chunhui Mansion?"

"When I first arrived today, I heard the name of Qianrichun, so I wanted to try it. ”

"Come on, come on..."

The shopkeeper nodded, beckoned to Ji Yuan, and took one of the small jars from the back shelf and pulled out the sealing stopper.

Take out a small porcelain cup and put it on the counter, and then use a delicate small spoon to reach into it and raise a small half, the amber wine dripping just poured the small porcelain cup, after pouring the cup mouth and the spoon connected with the filament, the shopkeeper turned it upside down before it was broken.

"Guest officer, please use it, I will ask you to taste the taste of this thousand days of spring and then evaluate it, it will be regarded as wine money!"

Ji Yuan sniffed the aroma of wine and approached the counter, didn't speak, reached out and grabbed the porcelain cup to his mouth and tasted it, but he didn't taste the bitter and astringent taste that needed to be used to first, but the taste was pure and sweet with a delicate hint of sweetness, and the degree was slightly higher than the Huadiao he had drunk before.

After another sip, I drank all the small wine, and only then did the slightly bitter taste and wine taste irritate the nose, and then turned into a thick sweetness, and the sweet aroma of the aftertaste in the mouth after swallowing it lingered for a long time.

Ji Yuan didn't like to drink alcohol in his previous life, thinking that any wine was unpleasant, but he didn't expect to be able to taste this in this life.

"Good wine, worthy of the name of a thousand days of spring!"

Ji Yuan didn't say any more explicit compliments, and directly took out two standard one or two round silver ingots from his arms and put them on the counter.

"One sip of this wine is really not enough, even if you eat a few less meals, you have to buy a catty. ”

The shopkeeper's smile is already the best compliment.

"Wait a minute, officer!"

After taking the silver and weighing it, the shopkeeper took a small wine bottle from the back shelf and handed it to Ji Yuan.

"A pound of spring for a thousand days. ”

Ji Yuan took the wine and then looked at the situation in the store, thinking that eighty percent of this wine would be supplied to major restaurants, inns and other places, and there would definitely be merchants and freight from all directions, and the garden shop should be a place with bright signs.

"Hey, shopkeeper, your wine is so expensive that even the gods can't afford to drink it......!

Ji Yuan smiled and sighed, with some self-encouragement and yearning, compared himself to a fairy, and walked out of the store with a wine bottle, which naturally became a joke in the ears of outsiders.

The shopkeeper smiled and shook his head, because Ji Yuan had just tasted wine and gritted his teeth to buy wine, and he seemed to be in a good mood.

When he was about to arrange the small porcelain cup, his outstretched right hand paused.

In addition to the good taste, there is also a characteristic of the wine sticky cup, even if it is the smoothest ceramic cup, it will definitely stick some liquor, which belongs to the kind that has to be licked several times to be clean.

But the porcelain cup in front of him was white and clean inside, and there was no trace of wine left, and the shopkeeper stretched out his finger to wipe it into the cup, and his expression was even more stunned.

'?'

Thinking back to the man's gentle drinking action, and then thinking of his words before leaving, the shopkeeper's heart suddenly jumped.

Immediately looked up, and said "guest officer ......" before exiting, but where could I see where Ji Yuan was.
