A horse-drawn carriage stopped at the west end of Erjinggou Alley.

Because there are suddenly more people in Erjinggou Alley today.

These people were all gathered under the banyan tree at the east end of the alley, and a few of them were pointing and whispering.

Because the tavern in Erjinggou Alley has changed.

Zhongli Ruoshui took her maid Lin Xue'er to finally squeeze in, and after a look, she was taken aback-

The façade of the small shop was decorated with old bricks and stones, which were not neat and uniform, and looked like they had a simple and mottled taste, as if they had gone through many storms.

The original door was also doubled in width, and the two doors were not vermilion, but rather close to the color of the wall next to them, and looked a little old.

The plaque on the lintel is large, but the plaque is still covered with red silk and has not yet been uncovered.

Two red silks also hung on either side of the door, obscuring the couplet affixed to the door frame.

Someone pointed to this red silk and said with relish:

"I heard that I asked for the ink treasure of Master Hua, but Li Chen'an is a fool...... How could he be favored by Hua Lao?"

"Could it be that his father asked for it for him?"

"Not very likely, after all, he was kicked out of the house by his father. ”

"So what do you mean by that?"

"I'm afraid it's a trick, but it's just to arouse your interest and mine. ”

"Wu Lao Er, my son can study in Qianmo Academy, and he saw Li Chen'an and Hua Lao talking hand in hand...... You have no idea how much Li Gongzi has changed!"

The face of the surnamed Wu turned red,

"Then you have to ask Mr. Hua, isn't Mr. Hua in the Qianmo Academy, who can tell if it's true or false?"

"You know the! Mr. Hua entered this tavern early in the morning, and I'm afraid I'm already slightly drunk at this moment. ”

“...... So there is a real relationship between Li Chenan and Mr. Hua?"

"It's not a lot, Li Chenan often comes to Qianmo Academy, and he chats with Hua Lao in the Intoxicating Pavilion!"

“......”

"It's quite weird on the outside, but not to mention, it doesn't look like an eyesore, and I think there's something else to it. ”

"Look, doesn't it give people a sense of tranquility in this sunset?"

"It's true, especially the shade of this banyan branch...... The door didn't open, and I didn't know what it looked like. ”

"Since it's a tavern, of course it's selling wine, so let's have a drink here?"

There were a bunch of people watching the excitement outside, and in the backyard of the tavern, Li Chenan squatted in front of the wine vat and beat a bowl of wine with a wine spoon and brought it to Hua Manting.

"Brother, didn't you say you wanted to go back to Kyoto?"

Hua Manting took the wine bowl and sniffed it deeply, the rich aroma of the wine made him close his eyes and not breathe for a long time, as if he was intoxicated.

It took him a moment before he opened his eyes, and those old eyes shone with excitement and excitement.

"I was going back to Kyoto, but I smelled the smell of your wine, which made my brother and I want to stop, so I changed my mind and wanted to stay for two more days. ”

After saying this, he took a sip, took the wine in his mouth and did not swallow it directly.

At that moment, the intense and stimulating sensation filled his mouth and made his eyes light up again.

Then swallow slowly.

The sip of wine roared down like a fire, burning all the way to his stomach.

He craned his neck, and his face showed a comfortable look.

"Good wine!"

"Far surpassing Kyoto Ruilu!"

"Not to mention that Guangling San!"

Li Chenan smiled, "What does that brother think my wine is worth?"

Hua Manting pondered for a moment, "Ruilu is three hundred and fifty wen a catty, and this wine should be sold for five hundred wen!"

Cuihua, who was standing on the side with anticipation in her eyes, was suddenly taken aback, her eyes fell on the old face of Hua Manting and looked at it carefully, thinking that this old man should not be wrong, right?

The little abacus in her heart crackled for a while, four catties of grain produced a catty of wine, even if all rice was used, a catty of rice was fifty wen, but a catty of rice was only twenty-five wen...... Four catties is 100 Wen, so the profit of this wine brewed by this new boss has reached 400 Wen!

If you sell ten catties of wine a day, you can earn four taels of silver, which is one hundred and twenty taels a month......

The little girl looked at Li Chen'an, and Li Chen'an at this moment was shining golden in her eyes.

This is better than selling coffins, I don't know how many times!

However, Li Chen'an's words made her stunned on the spot-

"Brother, I plan to sell this wine for two taels of silver a catty. ”

Hua Manting looked up in amazement, and said after five breaths: "Isn't it too expensive?"

In today's Ningguo, Guangling City is considered a wealthy city.

But in such a city, the income of those people was only twenty taels of silver.

If one or two pieces of silver are pinched tightly, it is basically enough for a family of five to live for a month.

Even in Kyoto's Yujing City, it is difficult for ordinary people to drop ten taels of silver all year round.

He sold this pound of wine for two taels of silver...... This is very difficult to sell in Hua Manting's opinion.

Of course, this is not to blame Hua Manting, he is a literati in his bones, he doesn't understand the businessman's set, and he doesn't bother to understand it.

"Scarcity is expensive. ”

Li Chenan handed the wine spoon to Cuihua, "Besides, my place is too small, and the output of this wine is only ten catties a day." In addition, this thing is not for ordinary people to drink, it is aimed at those high-ranking officials and nobles, businessmen and scholars. ”

Hua Manting picked up the wine bowl and took another sip.

After carefully tasting and counting the breaths, he was noncommittal to Li Chenan's words.

"What's the name of this wine?"

"I invited my brother to come and taste the wine, just to let my brother name this wine. ”

If the onlookers outside heard it, they would have thought that Li Chenan was going to take advantage of Hua Manting's name.

But Hua Manting knew that this was not the case.

He grinned and shook his head, pointing at Li Chen'an, "You kid, brother, I actually don't care about other false names anymore, you gave me this good thing, but it was a waste." ”

This wine is so good, it will definitely be famous in Ningguo.

Hua Manting named this wine, and his name can once again become more famous as the wine sells well.

"Brother, in fact, I have some selfish intentions, think about it...... I'm afraid this wine will cause some wind and rain when it comes out. ”

"I'm not afraid of the wind and rain, but it's a little annoying. Therefore, there is an old brother who names this wine, and there is an old brother's name in the town, and those young people have to weigh one or two even if they want to do something. ”

Hua Manting understood.

"But you still have to be careful, your wine is limited to this tavern and should be fine, but if it is sold all over the country one day, the name of my brother is not easy in the eyes of many people!"

"I know, I'll see when the time comes. ”

"Okay, get the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone!"

Hua Manting drank the bowl of wine in one gulp, rolled up his sleeves and wiped his mouth, and dropped the pen on the paper-

Draw the screen spring!
