Chapter Thirty-Three: Huapingchun (Part 2)

It was March 25, the 23rd year of Zhaohua, the end of Shenshi.

The setting sun turned half of the sky red, and the east end of Erjinggou Alley was also dyed red by the afterglow.

In full view of everyone, the door of the tavern under the old banyan tree finally opened.

At this moment, there were even more people gathered in front of the door, so much so that the Guangling government office sent police officers to maintain order here.

The chief of the police, Chen Ergou, led more than ten policemen to isolate these people three feet apart, but a few people were left in front of the door——

They are Zhongli Ruoshui, Cheng Zhe, Qi Zhixue and Su Muxin.

Their status was so high that Liu Zuo, the prefect of Guangling, was shocked when he found out what happened here.

Also nervous was Zhongli Qiuyang, who even transferred all two hundred guards from Zhongli Mansion to Erjinggou Alley.

In fact, there is another person who is a little nervous. She is Ning Chuchu, the fourth princess of Ning Kingdom.

She was nervous not because of the safety of people like Cheng Zhe, but because that person had made such a big noise. Now that the whole Guangling City knew about his boast, could his wine really be better than Ruilu?

If not, wouldn't he become the laughingstock of the world again?

She is still at Peach Blossom Villa.

But she sent Kaiyang after all.

Said he was going.

Kaiyang fell in love with her before leaving, feeling a little weird.





The first person who walked out after the door opened was the current dean of Ningguo Taiyuan Academy, the great Confucian scholar of Ningguo!

The moment he stood at the door, the jeers outside suddenly disappeared.

Everyone's eyes fell on his face.

I don't know if it's because of the sunset or because of his excitement, but his face full of grooves is actually exuding a ruffled red light at this moment!

In the red light, his old eyes became extremely clear at this moment.

He took a step forward.

Immediately after him, a person came out.

Of course he is Li Chenan!

He was wearing a blue gown with no accessories...

He just stood behind Hua Manting, but he was not overwhelmed by Hua Lao Daru's momentum.

He had his hands behind his back, with a slight smile that seemed to be forever engraved on his face. He glanced at everyone, and his eyes were still calm and calm.

As a result, many people looked over Hua Manting's shoulders towards him.

There was disbelief in those eyes, there was surprise and uncertainty, there was also envy and jealousy, and there was also a hint of disdain and coldness.

For the neighbors who originally lived in Erjinggou Alley, they have all seen the changes in Li Chenan in the past month.

But the changes were very strange and difficult for them to understand.

For example, he goes for a run, buys food, hires craftsmen to rebuild the shop, etc.

In addition, the incident that happened at the gate of the government office is still calm so far, and the Shen family has not seen anything done to him, which makes many good people a little disappointed.

These things can fully prove that he is indeed different from before. Although the neighbors are still not very harmonious, the eyes of these neighbors no longer have the same contempt as before.

He said he wanted to open a tavern.

He said he wanted to make his own wine.

He also said that he wanted to brew a wine that was far superior to Guanglingsan!

This tone is really loud, but it also attracted the attention of many people.

There were many businessmen's informants in the crowd, such as people sent by the Shen family, people sent by the Huo family, and Cai Zhengyao, the owner of another major grain merchant in Guangling.

Cai Zhengyao's purpose here is very simple——

Making wine requires a lot of food.

The Shen family threatened not to sell a grain of grain to Li Chenan. As the enemies of the Shen family, the Cai family was willing to do this business, but they had to know how much Li Chenan actually weighed.

Cai Zhengyao was very happy at this moment, because there was a flower-filled garden standing in front of the tavern.

In this way, that boy has really learned a lot about Mr. Hua Lao. So if the wine he brews is promoted by Mr. Hua Lao, even if the wine itself is not as good as Guangling San, but with Mr. Hua Lao's strong appeal, he will

The wine will definitely be very popular among students and literati.

Being able to capture this part of the market is enough!

At this moment, Li Chenan, who was standing behind Mr. Hua, shook his arms and said, "Fellow folks, I am Li Chenan!"

"Today the tavern will be officially opened. I am honored to invite Mr. Hua to cut the ribbon for the tavern!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, Brother Hua... How can a dignified scholar like you, Bai Ding, be called brother?

Then everyone's eyes fell on Hua Manting's face again, thinking that this scholar cherished his reputation the most. Li Chenan obviously wanted to borrow this old man's name. He would definitely not borrow it, maybe he would

Because of these words, I fell out with Li Chenan.

However, Hua Manting still had a smile on her face.

Instead of getting angry and scolding Li Chenan, he stroked his long beard and said: "I am honored to cut the ribbon for my little brother Li Chenan. I have already had a drink in the backyard. I dare to guarantee my reputation in this life..."

Hua Manting rolled up her sleeves, raised her arms, and said loudly: "This wine is not only better than Guangling San, it even far surpasses Kyoto Ruilu!"

As soon as these words came out, the long Erjinggou alley suddenly became agitated.

For a moment, the birds returning to their nests were so frightened that they flew up all over the sky——

"Does the boss really call him little brother? When will his talent and learning be comparable to that of the boss?"

"Since Mr. Hua Lao personally tasted it and came to the conclusion, with Mr. Hua's character, he will not tell any lies. So...his wine is really amazing!"

"It's intoxicating when you smell it. It must be a good wine. I just don't know the name of his wine and how much it sells for."

"Hey, it's a pity that the output is too low and it won't be widely circulated."

"..."

Li Chenan raised his hand again and pressed it with both hands. When the crowd's voice became quieter, he said loudly:

"I am honored to have Mr. Hua name this wine himself."

"Now, I announce the name of this wine. It is called... Huapingchun!"

The crowd was silent for a moment and then loudly shouted, "Guanglingsan, Huapingchun... the name Huapingchun seems to be more pleasant."

"You're wrong. This guy is awesome. It doesn't matter what the name of his wine is. What's important is that Mr. Hua personally chose the name!"

"Given Mr. Hua's status in the hearts of literati, he has already established a foothold even before the wine is sold!"

"..."

Zhongli Ruoshui stood behind Cheng Zhe. She tilted her head and looked at Li Chenan, who was in high spirits at the moment. She suddenly felt that he was better than what she had seen a few days ago.

Is it because of his training these days?

This is not the main thing. The main thing is that when Zhongli Ruoshui met Li Chenan for the first time, he exuded a confidence that no one could shake!

Yes, this kind of confidence is just like grandma's when facing a martial arts master.

In grandma's eyes, those so-called martial arts masters are just scum.

In Li Chenan's eyes at this moment, all the wines in the world are not worth mentioning!

So, how much does his wine cost per pound?

I really want to take a sip and try it!
