Chapter Twenty-Nine: A Different Story
However, the Huo family didn't know these facts.
When Huo Xi, the head of the Huo family, learned the news that the Li family fool at the east end of Erjinggou Alley seemed to have brewed a better wine than Ruilu, he summoned Huo Chuanming, originally to let him find out what was going on with that fool, but he didn't expect to learn more information from Huo Chuanming's mouth.
Huo Chuanming told Huo Xi in detail what happened in the government a few days ago, of course, he didn't know that there was another small case earlier, that is, Li Chendong sued Li Chenan for breaking into the house and committing murder.
In addition, Liu Chu instructed Cai Yutang not to mention that Li Chenan may have some kind of relationship with Lijing Division, so Huo Chuanming, who has always been cautious, made a wrong judgment-
"Uncle, in fact, this is also a good thing!"
"Although our Guanglingsan occupies a huge market, it is still firmly controlled by Qujia's Ruilu in the highest-end market!"
"Since this Li Chen'an has brewed a better wine than Ruilu...... he stroked his short beard, his eyes narrowed slightly, "As long as Cheng Guogong leaves Guangling City, Li Chen'an will lose its meaning to Zhongli Mansion!"
"In addition, the little nephew also listened to Zhongli Qiuyang's tone in the mansion, Zhongli Qiuyang laughed at this incident, saying that it was just the naughtiness of the third miss, and even more said that with Zhongli's status in the mansion, how could the third miss marry such a white ding!"
So the little nephew concluded that even if Miss Zhongli became interested in that fool, it was only for a while. When Zhonglifu's gaze stopped looking at him...... Our Huo family can easily handle him!"
"At that time, won't his recipe for this wine fall into the hands of our Huo family?"
"If his wine is really as good as it is rumored, our Huo family will be able to defeat the Qu family in Kyoto and become the largest wine merchant in Ningguo, occupying all the markets!"
When Horcy heard this, although his heart was happy, his face did not show it.
He even frowned and asked, "But after all, the Li family is a Li family of seven jinshi father and son and three flowers!"
"If the Li family's big house and second room want to protect him...... Although Baiyang is now the young Zhan of the Zhan Mansion, the Li Wenhou in the second room of the Li family is already the head of the household. ”
"If Li Wenhou stands up for that fool, Baiyang is not very good at the moment to have a bad relationship with Li Wenhou, because the matter of His Royal Highness the Prince's personal conquest has been put on the agenda. ”
When Huo Chuanming heard this, he pondered for a moment and said, "The little nephew thinks that Li Wenhou will not protect that kid!"
"Why?"
"Because His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wants to personally levy, as the head of the household, he must ensure the food and grass of the front-line soldiers. In recent years, the grain harvest in our Ningguo has not been very good, especially the floods in the south and north of the Yangtze River in the previous year, although there was a bumper harvest last year, but the household department is still short of food!"
"Therefore, Baiyang sent a letter informing me that I must let the grain merchants in Guangling City buy a large amount of grain this year. When the army is mobilized, if the logistics supply cannot keep up, at this time, Baiyang sends food to His Royal Highness the Prince...... This is the charcoal in the snow, he will definitely become the confidant of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
"During this period of time, I think Li Wenhou has no time to take care of other things, and when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince triumphs, Baiyang will definitely be able to go further, and we have obtained the method of making wine, at this time, even if Li Wenhou wants to maintain Li Chen'an, he will inevitably have to weigh more!"
Horthy picked up the teacup and got up, and walked a few steps back and forth in the study, "Then this matter will be up to you." ”
"After you do it, I will make a great contribution to you! Uncle will repair the book to Baiyang, the prefect of Guangling City...... Liu Chu is a thorn in his side!"
Huo Chuanming got up and was overjoyed: "This is for our Huo Mansion to go further, the little nephew should go all out!"
"When will Li Chen'an's tavern open?"
"I heard about tomorrow. ”
"Oh, send someone tomorrow to buy some of his wine and come back to taste it, and see if it lives up to its name!"
If that stupid boy really made a better wine than Ruilu...... Horsey's eyes narrowed, and a grim smile hung on the corner of his mouth.
......
Zhongli Ruoshui was also very concerned about the tavern in Erjinggou Alley, after all, that person made her very interested.
Especially after watching the song "Will Enter the Wine".
"Miss, Miss!"
Peach Blossom Villa, a girl ran into the backyard like a fly, and stood in front of Zhongli Ruoshui panting.
"What's wrong?"
"Miss Hui, he really made wine!"
“...... Li Chen'an?"
"Well, I heard that the strong smell of wine wafted in the alleys of Erjinggou yesterday, and now I'm afraid it has spread all over the city!"
Zhongli Ruoshui looked at Ning Chuchu, who was also surprised, and asked the maid again, "Has his tavern opened?"
"No, Cheng Gongzi went again yesterday evening, saying that the door of the tavern was still closed, saying that the smell of the wine alone was probably better than that of Ruilu in Kyoto, and it was estimated that it would really open today. ”
“...... Better than Ruilu?" Ning Chuchu asked in disbelief.
Ruilu is a royal tribute, looking at the entire Ning country, there is really no better wine than Ruilu!
Cheng Zhen is obsessed with wine, and what he often drinks as Cheng Guogong's mansion is Ruilu, if it is his evaluation, this is very likely to be true!
"Back to His Highness, the slave maid and the slave maid also heard that after all, his tavern has not yet opened, and I don't know how it is. ”
Zhongli Ruoshui pondered for a moment: "I know, prepare the car." ”
"Great!"
The maid turned away, Ning Chuchu looked at Zhongli Ruoshui, "Do you still want to go and see?"
"You don't want to?"
"I'm a little curious, but I'm afraid he'll find out about the situation in the Reikagin Division. ”
"But he already knows it from Cuihua's mouth, but you'd better not go. ”
"Why?"
"I think he's going to settle accounts with you. ”
Zhongli Ruoshui stood up, she was wearing a red dress, like a peach blossom in full bloom, "I'll bring back a pot of wine for you to taste." ”
Watching Zhongli Ruoshui leave happily, Ning Chuchu's face showed a touch of melancholy.
After a while, her face remained as usual, and she asked Yu Heng, who was standing behind her, "You say, if his wine is really that good, if this palace brings it back to the palace for my father to taste...... If the palace takes his wine as a tribute, so that his wine will be famous, since he can suppress Ruilu, it will naturally be able to suppress Guanglingsan, so that he can earn a lot of silver...... Will he be able to bring about a change in the Lijing Division branch in Guangling Prefecture?"
Yu Heng bowed, thought for a while and said, "Your Highness, I'm afraid that his small place can't make much wine." ”
"Besides, the Kyoto Qujia has been working in Kyoto for so many years, and compared to Li Gongzi, the Qujia is a behemoth. ”
"His subordinates thought that if he could open up sales channels in this Guangling Prefecture, he would be able to establish a wine-making workshop and defeat the Huo clan in Guangling Prefecture first...... The road can be longer and wider. ”
Ning Chuchu pondered for a moment, "It's that this palace is in a hurry, but it's ......"
Her face suddenly became happy, and she looked at the splendid peach forest, "Isn't there thousands of acres of land outside this Peach Blossom Villa?"
