When Hu Shang, who was called "Master An", heard the knight's compliment, a hint of discoloration flashed in his eyes, but his face was still filled with a bright smile. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info he raised the wine bowl, and said in a strange but fluent Chinese dialect: "Cheng Du Zhuangshi Ji Yan." If they can make money this time, the two strong men will be indispensable. When he returned to Luoyang, An naturally had another mind. ”

"Thank you, Master Ann!" the two knights thanked with joy.

The three of them raised their bowls together and drank them all.

The two groups of people who came before and after met in Pingshui, although they were not far apart, they were eating their own food, and they were clearly distinguishing from each other.

After the Hu Shang and the two knights drank a few bowls of wine, there happened to be a breeze blowing from Chen Yi and the others, but the wind was wrapped in a trace of the aroma of wine escaping from the gourd in Chen Xing's hand.

Hu Shang's nose twitched slightly, a look of surprise appeared on his face, he turned his head to look at Chen Yi a few times, and suddenly got up and walked over.

Seeing him walking towards this side, Chen Yi and the three of them stopped eating and drinking.

"This son is invited, and the contemptible An Muhua is polite. Hu Shang had excellent eyesight, and he could see at a glance that Chen Yi was the center of the three, and he gave him a salute with a smile.

Chen Yi got up and returned the salute and said, "Don't dare, boy Chen Yi, I don't know what Mr. An has to say?"

Na An Muhua said with a smile: "The contemptible is a small merchant who moved to Luoyang from the Western Regions. It is a shame to say that the contemptible people are quite good in the cup of life, and they are the most sensitive to the smell of fine wine. Fang just smelled a hint of wine in the gourd of this old man, which seemed to be a rare wine, so he cheekily came up to ask for a bowl to drink. ”

Chen Yi saw that this person was polite and spoke funny, so he also chuckled and said: "There is a fate to meet thousands of miles away, since it is fate, why don't Mr. An move over and sit with your companions." The boy doesn't have anything here, but the wine is enough. ”

"That's the best, thank you Gongzi Chen!" An Muhua smiled, turned around to greet the two knights, and moved the entire blanket along with the food and wine on it.

Chen Yi also asked Chen Xi to bring a gourd of wine out of the car.

After everyone sat around, An Muhua introduced two knights to Chen Yi, saying that they were the brothers Du Shan and Du Hai, famous rangers in Luoyang, and they went out to do business this time and hired two of them as guards.

Chen Yi reported his home and introduced Chen Xing and Chen Xi.

Seeing that Chen Yi and Chen Xi were young, and hearing that Chen Xing was a domestic servant, the Du brothers' faces showed contempt, and they seemed to feel that they had lost their identity by sitting at the same table with these three people.

However, An Muhua did not look strange at all, talking and laughing and being polite.

Regarding the performance of the Du brothers, Chen Yi was not at all disgusted even if he saw it, and personally picked up the wine gourd he had just taken out, poured a bowl of wine for An Muhua, Chen Xing and the Du brothers, and then said apologetically: "The kid is still young, so he won't accompany the three of them to drink, and I'll do it for Xingbo." However, my wine is quite strong, and it is best for the three of us to drink it in small sips. ”

"It's really a good wine!" The crystal clear wine is poured into the wine bowl, and the aroma of the wine is even more intense. Ranger indulges in the rivers and lakes, and there are few people who are not fond of fine wine. When the Du brothers smelled the aroma of the wine, the wine worms in their stomachs moved, and after exclaiming in unison, they all couldn't wait to pick up the wine bowl, completely ignoring Chen Yi's warning, and raised their heads to drink the whole bowl of wine.

Seeing the Du brothers drinking, Chen Xi on the side suddenly let out a sneer, and his face was full of good looks.

When the wine entered the mouth, the Du brothers didn't feel anything, and when the wine penetrated the throat and entered the abdomen, it was like a fire dragon passing through the throat and esophagus, and then turned into a puff of fire and exploded in the abdomen.

"Ahem, cough, cough......" The two of them grabbed their throats with red faces and coughed sharply, and then stuffed a few mouthfuls of vegetables into their mouths, and it took a long time to suppress the fire in their chests and abdomen.

Seeing this, An Muhua couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. He picked up the wine bowl and greeted Chen Xing, took a sip gently, with an aftertaste on his face, and sighed: "Sure enough, it's 'Ice and Fire'." ”

"This is Luoyang's newly famous 'Ice and Fire'?" Du Shan, the eldest of the Du brothers, asked in a hoarse voice, with a look of disbelief on his face.

An Muhua took another sip of wine and said leisurely: "The view is as clear and crystal as ice, and the burning of drinking is as hot as fire, so it is called 'ice and fire'." Although this fine wine is priceless in Luoyang now, I have the privilege of tasting it once, and I will never forget its taste. ”

"Then you must have a good taste!" The Du brothers snatched the gourd a little rudely and each got a bowl. This time, they finally learned a lesson, and they all followed the example of An Muhua and Chen Xing and took small sips.

After taking a few sips of wine, An Muhua asked Chen Yi tentatively: "Chen Gongzi, as far as people know, this 'Ice and Fire' has only been sold in Luoyang for a few months, and because of the limited quantity, it has been carved up by several of the most famous restaurants in Luoyang every time it is put on the market, what is the way for Gongzi to get this wine?"

Chen Yi smiled but didn't answer, but Chen Xi on the side blurted out: "What kind of way do you want, this wine is ......"

Chen Xing choked on a sip of wine at this time, and let out a series of violent coughs, interrupting Chen Xi's words.

Chen Xi also seemed to understand something, and did not continue to say the second half of the sentence.

However, for An Muhua, an old fox who has been rolling in the business sea for many years, Chen Xi's half sentence has given him enough information. Although he no longer asked, when facing Chen Yi, his attitude had changed slightly, and he had vaguely regarded him as a person with the same status as himself.

After a full meal, An Muhua's coachman stepped forward to help Chen Xing clean up the remnants, while the others walked to the stream to wash their hands.

An Muhua squatted down and washed his hands casually in the cool stream water, and turned his head to look at Chen Yi and Chen Xishi casually, but saw a rather interesting scene.

The two of them put a boxy, yellowish and somewhat transparent thing at their feet, washed their hands in the stream, rubbed them on their hands for a while, and immediately stained their hands with a layer of white foam, and then rubbed their hands together to make the foam evenly cover their hands, and finally rinsed them in the stream again to wash off the foam. After washing like this, the hands of the two seemed to become exceptionally clean.

"Gongzi Chen, what is this?" An Muhua asked interestingly.

Chen Yi handed over the thing and said with a smile: "A small thing made by chance, I call it 'soap', and I can wash it cleaner by smearing some when bathing or washing clothes." ”

An Muhua's eyes lit up, and he was not polite, he took the piece of soap, and washed his hands again after learning the steps he had just seen, and carefully observed that the washed hands were indeed much cleaner than before.

"Chen Gongzi's whimsical idea is that he can make such a wonderful thing and use it, which is admirable. An Muhua returned the soap to Chen Yi, but he was already thinking about it quickly in his heart.

As a successful businessman, he knows that Fangcai's fine wine "ice and fire" and the soap in front of him contain huge business opportunities, but after all, the two sides meet each other, and asking too much will only make the other party wary and even disgusted, when they talked, they said that this trip is also to Luoyang, and on the way you can come up with some means to pull relations, if you can get any of these two things in your hands, its benefits will far exceed the so-called "big deal" you did this time.
