Chapter 11: Selling Monkey Wine
Put the wine jar and water bladder on the ground one by one, and Lu Yu turned around and tied the door of the house.
When he came back to the wine vat, he leaned over and picked up the water bladder that contained the wine residue and the dried cracked peel, and tore it open, and poured all the contents into the mountain spring water.
Watching the wine residue slowly sink to the bottom of the tank, Lu Yu pressed the water bladder containing ordinary monkey wine on the top of the wine tank and closed it.
After touching his stomach, Lu Yu turned around and went out, planning to go downstairs for some dinner.
Walking out of the door, Lu Yu glanced next door, only to see that the black-clothed drunkard Xue Buyi was still lying on the ground, sleeping soundly.
After locking the door, Lu Yu turned around and went downstairs.
At this time, the sky was getting dark, the innkeeper was on the lamp, and a few guests were eating on the table.
Seeing Lu Yu going downstairs, the previous guy hurriedly came over and greeted, "Guest officer, but do you want to eat?"
Lu Yu nodded and said, "Ten flatbreads and three bowls of rice porridge." ”
"Oh, okay. Wait a minute. The man let Lu Yu sit down in front of an empty table, turned around and pouted, and went to the back hall.
The time was short, and the guy was carrying a tray with three bowls of rice porridge and a stack of flatbread on it.
Lu Yu was also hungry at this time, thanked the guy, and then picked up a large cake, opened his mouth and bit the next piece.
"Huh?" Lu Yu was slightly stunned, turned his head to the guy and asked, "How much is this big cake?"
The guy grinned and said, "Guest officer, the pie is a penny!"
"A penny?" Lu Yu was surprised, this flatbread was sandwiched with fragrant braised pork, it was clearly a meatloaf, how could it only be sold for a penny!
The guy almost didn't cry, and said, "Guest officer, I said it wrong, it's two pennies for a penny!"
Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, but immediately understood, sighed secretly in his heart, and did not break it, and buried himself in eating cakes and drinking porridge.
The guy finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Lu Yu was no longer "forcing each other"! Some time ago in his shop, he had just been bullied by a few martial artists, and the shopkeeper was really a little afraid.
"The guest officer is slow to use, and if there is something, he will greet the small one. The man turned and was about to leave.
"Oh, there's one more thing!" Lu Yu said later.
The guy's body stiffened, and he only heard Lu Yu say: "The guests in room No. 1 upstairs are drunk and sleeping outside the door, you can go and take a look!"
The guy hurriedly said yes and went to the back.
Lu Yu had dinner, and when he returned upstairs, he saw that the man in black was still lying outside the door, thinking that the guys hadn't taken care of him yet.
Opening the door, Lu Yu entered the house.
Still tied the door, Lu Yu sat down cross-legged next to the wine vat, took out the lower grade monkey wine from his arms, gently sipped a little, closed his eyes and waited for the power of the spirit wine to be absorbed.
Yesterday, when he was absorbing the aura in Yuanling, he drank a lot of monkey wine, and gradually felt that this monkey wine was from the inside out, constantly transforming the body. The cyan light spots inhaled are tempered from the outside in. In the feeling, the effect of the next grade monkey wine is far better than the cyan light point inhaled into the body.
This act of meditating and cultivating the mind is very boring and difficult. On that day, there were cyan points of light that were constantly absorbed into the body, and it was easy for Lu Yu to enter the realm of having no distractions and concentrating on absorbing the points of light. Now I have only sat for a moment, and all kinds of thoughts are flying, mixed and flying in my mind, and it is difficult to calm my mind!
Try to calm your mind and eliminate distractions. It wasn't until about a stick of incense that Lu Yu's mind gradually became empty, and he no longer paid attention to the passage of time.
After more than an hour like this, Lu Yu opened his eyes.
Getting up and picking up the water bladder that sealed the wine tank, Lu Yu dipped his fingers in a little mountain spring water and tasted it slightly.
Feeling okay, Lu Yu opened the water bladder again, and poured most of the purchased half of the ordinary monkey wine into it.
According to the inheritance memory, the wine residue of the lower grade monkey wine, supplemented by mountain spring water and fan monkey wine, can be blended according to a certain ratio to make a better taste of fan monkey wine. Lu Yu was going to try this method this time.
After doing this, Lu Yu closed the wine vat with an empty water bladder and walked out of the door by himself.
At this moment, it is the time of the moon in the middle of the sky, although it has passed the fifteenth year, and the bright moon in the sky is slightly lacking, but it is still bright and clean.
The night breeze blows, and the flowers and trees on the corridor sway gently, sending bursts of fragrance.
Lu Yu was open-minded, holding on to the railing outside the corridor, and looked up to admire the moon.
"Mother...... Mother!" came a muffled voice.
Lu Yu turned his head to look, and saw that the drunkard Xue Buyi was still sleeping outside the door, and at this moment he seemed to have had some nightmare, and his right hand stretched forward, as if he wanted to grab something.
Gently came to Xue Buyi, and saw that he didn't know why, in his sleep, his face was full of tears!
When he was about to take a closer look, this Xue Buyi was not very old, and he was about twenty years old.
Lu Yu couldn't help but think of himself, according to his father, when he was very young, his mother died of illness, so in his memory, there is no memory of his mother at all!
After being silent for a while, Lu Yu returned to his room, took out a quilt, and covered Xue Buyi.
There are still important things to do tomorrow, see if the time is not early, Lu Yu went back to the room to rest.
This sleep was very sweet, and it was only when it started to be noisy downstairs that Lu Yu woke up.
Turning over and getting out of bed, he first untied the water bladder that closed the wine tank, fished out some wine and tasted it.
Lu Yu frowned slightly, "This taste is still a lot worse!"
After thinking about it, Lu Yu took out the inferior monkey wine from his arms, opened the cork, and poured a little into the wine vat, but said to himself in his heart: "If you mix this little inferior monkey wine, I'm afraid you will lose money!"
But at this moment, he urgently needs money to treat his father's injuries, and he can't care so much.
Touching the stone bead on his waist, Lu Yu walked out of the door.
glanced next door, only to see that Xue Buyi didn't know when, and had already left.
After going downstairs for a simple breakfast, Lu Yu went upstairs to pick up the wine vat and walked out of the door of the inn.
Walking all the way, he came to the larger winery where he asked for the price yesterday, and Lu Yu stepped in.
Early in the morning, there was no business in the winery, and the winery guys were gathering together to gossip.
Hearing the sound of footsteps, a guy turned his head to look at Lu Yu, and after being slightly stunned, he greeted him.
"This son, what kind of drink do you need?" the guy glanced at the wine vat on Lu Yu's shoulder and asked with some joy.
"I want to sell wine!" Lu Yu gently lowered the wine vat on his shoulder.
The guy at the wine shop was a little disappointed, but he glanced at the half jar of wine, and didn't dare to slack off at the moment, and said, "Son, wait a minute, I'll go and tell the shopkeeper." ”
Lu Yu nodded in agreement and waited quietly.
After a while, in the sound of footsteps, the guy from the wine shop led an old man back.
The old man hugged his fist at Lu Yu and said, "This little brother is good! This store rarely buys wine, wait for the old man to see if the quality is good?"
Lu Yu nodded, dodged and stood aside, waiting for the old man to come and inspect the wine.
