Chapter 183: The Dissatisfied Gourd
Seeing the silver nuggets on the table, Shopkeeper Meng was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Okay, okay, I know you have money, okay." ”
Shopkeeper Meng waved his hand as he spoke, not wanting to entangle with this drunkard more.
But the drunkard said, "What's the matter, I'm going to buy wine from you!"
"Buying wine?" Shopkeeper Meng looked at the drunkard, then looked at the silver nugget on the counter, and picked it up and weighed it, although this silver nug is not a silver ingot, but it can be worth three taels of silver.
"Okay, what kind of wine do you want to buy?" said the shopkeeper Meng.
The drunkard muttered, "Well, that's what I just drank and fill me with this wine gourd." ”
Shopkeeper Meng looked at his gourd, it was just an average-sized wine gourd, not to mention a jar, I was afraid that it would be full if I poured two bowls casually, but this drunkard directly gave the silver, I am afraid that it is not difficult to give him change?
Seeing that the shopkeeper Meng hesitated, the drunkard shouted: "What, you still don't do business yet?"
Seeing this scene, Qin Wu kindly relieved the siege and said: "That's it, shopkeeper, although I don't have any change, but you can still record the wine in my account, and you won't have to make change." ”
The drunkard refused: "Hey, little brother doesn't have to break the bank, I'll buy this wine myself." ”
"What's the matter?" the drunkard continued.
Shopkeeper Meng smiled and said, "Sell, why don't you sell it." ”
"Zhiying, go and hold the wine again. ”
With so many guests watching here, if he was worried that he wouldn't even do business because he couldn't find a change, wouldn't it make the guests see a joke? So at the same time that the shopkeeper went to hold the wine, the shopkeeper Meng also opened his money box and took out the consistent copper coins from it.
Seeing this, the drunkard suddenly said: "Don't bother the shopkeeper, I'll give you silver, you just fill my wine jug, and as for change, you don't need to look for it." ”
"Don't need to look for money?" shopkeeper Meng said in surprise, this drunkard is so generous?
The drunkard smiled and said, "Yes, you don't need to look for it." ”
As long as you are a clear-eyed person, you can see that this drunkard's smile has a hint of ill intentions in it, but no one knows what the drunkard is calculating, could it be that this silver is fake?
Shopkeeper Meng touched the silver nugget again, and then bit it with his teeth, but the experience of opening a shop for decades told him that the silver was real.
"Since you said you didn't need to look for it, then I won't look for it. Shopkeeper Meng said suspiciously.
The drunkard smiled and nodded, "As long as you promise to fill it for me." ”
"Guaranteed!" Shopkeeper Meng glanced at him, and the money was all collected, so could he still give him a shortage of catties in public?
"You can pretend until it overflows. ”
Including Qin Wu, everyone thought that this drunkard was trying to make it difficult to make change, or pretend to be arrogant, but they only knew later that this drunkard was really making trouble......
The shopkeeper soon reported another jar of wine, as well as a funnel and a spoon, ready to put the funnel on the mouth of the gourd, and then scooped it into him spoonful by spoonful.
However, the drunkard directly knocked off the spoon on the shopkeeper's second-hand hand and said, "What spoon do you use, pour it directly into the jar." ”
"Ahh The shopkeeper agreed, then picked up the jar and slowly poured wine into the funnel.
The sound of snoring wine sounded from the gourd, and it was not the first time that the shopkeeper had poured wine into a container like a wine gourd, every time he listened to the sound from the gourd, he probably knew where it was full, but this time, he frowned suspiciously, and then slowly put down the wine jar......
"Hiccup, why put it down? It's not full yet. The drunkard said as he lay on the counter, looking at him as if he was content to watch the wine fall down.
But everyone can see that they poured so much just now, it's almost enough, the shopkeeper glanced at the shopkeeper Meng, the shopkeeper Meng nodded, and signaled: "Keep pouring, pour it for him!"
The drunkard also chimed in: "Yes, until it overflows in the funnel and can't be poured in, even if it overflows, you shouldn't feel so distressed?"
Immediately, the shopkeeper picked up the wine jar and continued to pour wine into it.
There was a snoring sound in the wine gourd again, and the shopkeeper poured the wine from the beginning and tried to tilt it slowly, becoming poured in like no money, but no matter how he poured the wine, the sound from the wine gourd never changed, as if it was not the wine gourd that was poured in, but a bottomless pit, and the wine was still only poured at the bottom, making a snoring sound, and it never looked like it was full.
Everyone felt that something was wrong, but everyone didn't know why, and the shopkeeper didn't believe in evil and continued to pour in.
And Qin Wu directly changed his position to observe, wanting to see what tricks this drunkard had played, so that the gourd had always pretended to be dissatisfied, but no matter how Qin Wu observed, the drunkard just stood there with a gourd, the gourd had no mechanism, and the drunkard did not play any tricks.
The drunkard also noticed Qin Wu's actions, and said with a smile: "What? Little brother thinks I'm cheating? Oh, it just so happens that my hands are sore when I have been holding the gourd for so long, so I put it here, you can see it slowly if you want to see it, and pour it slowly." ”
After that, the drunkard directly let go of his hand and stood the gourd directly on the counter, so that everyone could see it clearly.
The wine is still snoring, but everyone is even more surprised, everyone at first thought that there is a loophole in this wine gourd, this drunkard is deliberately making things difficult for others, but now no matter how you look at it, there is no problem with this gourd, if there is any loophole at the bottom of the gourd, the counter should have been soaked with wine a long time ago, not only that, even if there is any loophole leaking out of the wine, with the current speed of the shopkeeper pouring wine, how to leak it is impossible for him to pour it fast!
Just as everyone was looking at them in disbelief, the sound of snoring and pouring wine suddenly stopped, not that the wine gourd was full, but that the shopkeeper stopped pouring wine.
The shopkeeper Meng, who was trying to see when this little gourd would be full, asked, "Why don't you pour it?"
The shopkeeper glanced at the shopkeeper Meng aggrievedly and said, "It's over......"
"What! it's over!?" Shopkeeper Meng snatched the wine jar and tilted the entire wine jar directly on his head, his eyes as if he wanted to go into the wine jar to find wine.
But no matter how he looked at it or how he shook it, he couldn't find a drop of wine in this jar......
"How is that possible?" everyone said in unison, including Qin Wu.
Qin Wu looked at the wine jar, and then at this gourd, no matter what he thought, with the capacity of this wine jar, it would not be a problem to fill dozens of these small gourds, how could it be that it was not full after pouring it???
The weirdness of this thing is beyond everyone's common sense, and there is no logic at all!
Shopkeeper Meng was also panicked for a while, how could such a small gourd hold so much wine? Then he shouted unbelievingly: "Move another jar!"
He just wanted to see how much wine could be held in such a small wine gourd!
