Chapter 318: Getting Closer
Some people like to show off, they don't really have much ability, but he likes to show off to people who are less capable than him, these people just do it to find a sense of superiority, a somewhat pathetic sense of superiority.
Envy because you can't get it, unbalanced because you envy, and find a chance to balance yourself because you can't get it.
Deyixuan's shopkeeper seems to be such a person, he likes to show off with the cooks in the back kitchen, showing off what he sees and what he has experienced, because the knowledge of the cooks in the shopkeeper's heart is far inferior to his, so the shopkeeper will always appear in the back kitchen as a superior identity.
At this time, the shopkeeper had already appeared, and he ran to the back kitchen with an envious expression and said, "Do you know what kind of wine Fan Xiuwen drank?"
Everyone in the back kitchen was busy, and no one heard the words of the shopkeeper at all, and the shopkeeper complained and suddenly saw the old man Gan and Xiong Yu who were washing dishes on the side.
The shopkeeper immediately ran to Xiong Yu and said, "Boy, I don't look like a person who has seen the big world, let me show you the big world today." ”
Xiong Yu raised his head and said, "What big world?"
The shopkeeper immediately said proudly: "I just saw that Fan Xiuwen's subordinates took out a jar of daughter red from the carriage, and I have already smelled the aroma of the wine three zhang away, according to my years of experience in wine tasting, that jar must be fifty years of aged daughter red, if I can drink a sip of that fifty-year-old daughter red in this life, then my life is not in vain." ”
Xiong Yu smiled and said, "For me, all wine is the same. ”
The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "Either you kid haven't seen the world, let me ask you, can the two-hundred-pound pig be the same as a hundred-pound pig?"
Xiong Yu didn't speak, but lowered his head and washed the dishes, and the shopkeeper saw that Xiong Yu ignored him and immediately said to himself: "That must be different, of course the daughter red of the past five years and the daughter red of fifty years are also different." ”
After saying this, the shopkeeper's eyes suddenly stopped on the old man Gan, and the shopkeeper looked at the old man Gan and said, "Old man Gan, are you right?"
Old man Gan laughed and said, "That's natural, I think what you said makes a lot of sense." ”
The shopkeeper nodded at first, but then he paused and said, "What do I say to you, an old man, you don't look like someone who can understand me." ”
Saying that, the shopkeeper walked to the door of the back kitchen and said loudly: "Cheer me up, the guests in the restaurant today are not ordinary, if you dare to be lazy, see how Boss Meng cleans you up." ”
The moment the mud seal was opened, the aroma of wine immediately overflowed the room, and Bu Ying immediately sighed as soon as he smelled this smell of wine: "What a mellow aroma, this jar of wine is at least forty years old." ”
Fan Xiuwen nodded and said, "Brother Bu is worthy of being an expert, and this altar is the fifty-year-old daughter Hong." ”
Bu Ying smiled and sighed secretly in his heart: It seems that Fan Xiuwen has something important to discuss with me this time, otherwise how could he come up with such a thing.
"Has Brother Fan always been so generous?" Bu Ying said with a smile.
Fan Xiuwen laughed and said: "Where is Brother Bu, as the old saying goes, there is no traitor, no business, I am a businessman, so I have always kept good things for myself, if I didn't see Brother Bu today, I might not be willing to take out this wine." ”
As soon as Bu Ying heard Fan Xiuwen's words, he knew that Fan Xiuwen must have asked for himself, but Bu Ying didn't point it thoroughly, he had to say it personally by Fan Xiuwen, only in this way could Bu Ying get more benefits.
Fan Xiuwen naturally guessed what Bu Ying was thinking, although he had a smile on his face, he secretly sighed in his heart that Bu Ying was so difficult.
Fan Xiuwen poured a glass of wine for Bu Ying and sent it to Bu Ying and said, "Brother Bu, come and taste this wine." ”
Bu Ying took the wine in Fan Xiuwen's hand and drank it all and said, "Good wine, really good wine." ”
Fan Xiuwen nodded with satisfaction and said, "It's good that Brother Bu is satisfied, both of us brothers are involuntary people, it is difficult for you to spare time to live for yourself for the imperial court, and I am running around the world every day for that little bit of silver, it is not easy to meet, today I and Brother Bu must not get drunk and do not return." ”
Bu Ying nodded and said, "That's true, how can life be as good as it should be." ”
Fan Xiuwen smiled and poured another glass of wine for Bu Ying and said, "Come, drink three cups first." ”
Three glasses of wine have already been eaten, the fifty-year-old daughter is really strong enough, Fan Xiuwen's face is already slightly red, and Bu Ying also feels like a fire is burning in his chest.
At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door, and Fan Xiuwen immediately said loudly: "Who?"
"I'm the shopkeeper, the dishes have been prepared, I'm here to ask Boss Fan if I can serve the food now?" came from the door from the shopkeeper's voice.
Fan Xiuwen sighed and said, "Come in." ”
The door of the house was gently pushed open, and the shopkeeper bent over and walked in, only to see the shopkeeper lightly put the dishes on the wooden plate on the table, and the shopkeeper didn't dare to raise his head from beginning to end.
The shopkeeper showed a respectful appearance from beginning to end, and the shopkeeper wanted to please Fan Xiuwen, but he didn't know what to do, so he could only do this.
After the shopkeeper finished serving, he slowly poured out and withdrew.
"Wait. Fan Xiuwen's voice suddenly sounded.
Before the words fell, Xiao Er froze in place, and he didn't say a word, because he was listening to Fan Xiuwen's orders.
Fan Xiuwen took out ten taels of silver from his arms and said, "You did a very good job, this is your reward." ”
The shopkeeper immediately walked up to Fan Xiuwen with a flattering face and said, "Thank you Boss Fan for your reward." ”
Fan Xiuwen then threw ten taels of silver into the shopkeeper's second-hand hand, and the shopkeeper immediately bent over to withdraw after getting the silver.
"Wait. Fan Xiuwen's business rang out again.
The shopkeeper immediately stopped and said, "What else does Boss Fan have to order?"
Fan Xiuwen smiled and said, "You did a good job, but I prefer that guy from three days ago, and let him serve the food later." ”
The shopkeeper didn't have the right to question, so he immediately nodded and said, "The villain understands." ”
After waiting for the shopkeeper to leave, Bu Ying immediately smiled and said, "What does the guy who can make Brother Fan worry about what does he look like, is there anything special about him?"
Fan Xiuwen shook his head and said, "That guy can't be so disgusting. ”
As soon as the shopkeeper went out, he rushed to the back kitchen as fast as he could, and as soon as he entered the back kitchen, the shopkeeper ran to Xiong Yu and said, "Boy, you're lucky." ”
Xiong Yu raised his head and said, "What luck did I have?"
The shopkeeper took out ten taels of silver from his arms and said proudly, "What do you think this is?"
The shopkeeper thought that Xiong Yu would show envy and jealousy, but Xiong Yu didn't, Xiong Yu just said lightly: "This is ten taels of silver." ”
The shopkeeper pointed to the ten taels of silver in his hand and said: "I only went in to deliver three dishes, and Boss Fan rewarded me with ten taels of silver, this Boss Fan is really a rich man with a lot of money." ”
Xiong Yu smiled, and then the shopkeeper pointed at Xiong Yu and said: "I, Wu Ergou, have always been a righteous person, I will never hide good things alone, I immediately thought of the brothers in the back kitchen as soon as I saw that Boss Fan's generous moves, so I recommended you to Boss Fan, it is you, Xiong Yu." ”
Xiong Yu frowned and said, "What do you mean?"
The shopkeeper crossed his waist and said: "Then Boss Fan saw that I was clever, so he rewarded me with ten taels of silver, but I decided to let you get a handful, so at that time I opened my mouth and said to Boss Fan that there is a guy in the store is not bad, Boss Fan heard me say this, of course, I want to ask who it is, at that time I did not hesitate to say you, how is it, Xiong Yu, I am not interesting enough." ”
Xiong Yu nodded and said, "Then I will thank Brother Ergou for giving me the opportunity." ”
The shopkeeper looked at Xiong Yu's appearance and said with satisfaction: "Not bad, yes, but you must not forget me if you have benefits, if Boss Fan gives you a reward, you can ・・・・・・ it."
Xiong Yu smiled knowingly and said, "I will naturally give some to Brother Ergou." ”
The shopkeeper patted Xiong Yu on the shoulder and said, "Boy, with you, if you encounter anything in this art hall in the future, just come to me, I will settle it for you." With that, the shopkeeper walked out happily.
As soon as the shopkeeper left, the old man Gan pushed Xiong Yu with his elbow and said, "Your second dog brother looks very powerful." ”
Xiong Yu laughed and said, "Don't make fun of me anymore." ”
Old man Gan took a deep breath and said: "You must be cautious when you act for a while, if you don't have a chance, don't force it, after all, if you don't die, you will have nothing." ”
Xiong Yu nodded and said, "Can you hold back those five masters?"
Old Man Gan smiled disdainfully and said, "You would say this because you haven't seen my sword yet, and if you saw my swordsmanship, you would never say that." ”
Xiong Yu patted Old Man Gan's shoulder and said, "I just want to tell you one thing. ”
Old man Gan was puzzled, "What's the matter?"
Xiong Yu Zhengse said: "Don't be reluctant, if you can't stop those five people, don't care about me anymore, you must go, don't look back, I don't want to hurt your old woman and widow when she is old." ”
Old man Gan gritted his teeth, and said with gratitude in his eyes: "I have lived a few decades longer than you, I have lived without regrets in these decades, and I have no regrets, so you don't have to worry about me." ”
Xiong Yu smiled and said: "I don't want anyone to sacrifice for me, I can listen to you for anything else, but you must listen to me in this matter." ”
Saying that, Xiong Yu immediately got up and no longer gave Old Man Gan a chance to speak, Xiong Yu walked straight to the cook, looked at the beef that was being stewed in the middle of the country, and said, "How long is this dish left?"
The cook untied the lid of the pot and looked at it, "It will take about half a pillar of incense." ”
Xiong Yu nodded, then he walked to the table and picked up a wooden plate and put it in his hand, Xiong Yu's hand gently touched the bottom of the wooden plate, and there was a short sword hidden in the wooden plate, which was used to assassinate Fan Xiuwen.
A jar of wine has almost been drunk, Fan Xiuwen's face is already slightly drunk, but his eyes shine from time to time, Bu Ying looks a little drunk, but it doesn't mean that he is really drunk.
Fan Xiuwen picked up the chopsticks and ate a bite of the dish, then he looked at Bu Ying and said with a smile: "Brother Bu, I don't hide my brother in front of you, I actually have one thing to discuss with you when I ask you here today." ”
