Chapter 520: The world is in decline
"He is your brother?"
Xiao Shisanniang walked out of the moon door with her back depressed, and turned to Li Chenan and asked curiously.
"Well, he is also the one you want to protect in the future."
"oh……"
"By the way, Thirteenth Mother, have you written a letter to your master?"
"I can't read, how do I write?"
Li Chenan was stunned, "Then you say I'll write it, but how can you let your master know that this is what you mean?"
"Master Hua Duohua will know."
Well, we have to open a literacy class after the exchange.
"Say it now, and I'll write it right away."
"good!"
So, Li Chenan polished his ink, listened to Xiao Shisanniang's dictation, and wrote a letter. He completely followed Xiao Shisanniang's tone, and he did not add or subtract half a point without authorization.
In the end, Xiao Shisanniang took the pen and actually put a flower at the end of the letter... What kind of flower is this!
What she drew was roughly a dogtail grass.
"Master will definitely ask the senior sisters to come out."
"Why?"
"Because the master said...the general trend of the world is that if we divide for a long time, we will unite and unite for a long time. I am afraid that there will be chaos, so we need to go out to practice."
The head of Wanxi Zhai has some experience.
"How old is your master now?"
Xiao Shisanniang was stunned for a moment, "Master is not an old man, my master is a fairy-like person, she is only twenty years old!"
This time it was Li Chenan's turn to be surprised, and then he heard Xiao Shisanniang explain:
"Master is Master's favorite disciple. Master left three years ago and handed Wanxi Zhai into Master's hands. We all became Master's disciples."
"Master, let me tell you, my master...she is really beautiful!"
"Yes, she is a little colder, like an ice sculpture. If she smiles..."
Xiao Shisanniang's face showed a look of longing, "If she smiles, it must be that she is the only one in the world!"
Li Chenan was stunned, "What's your master's name?"
"I can't tell you this, so don't take any chances with my master!"
"I went to hoe the ground. I have to tidy up this place today."
Xiao Shisanniang turned around and left, and Li Chenan thought for a moment, not so much about the shy beauty, but about the arrangements for tonight.
I have to go to the tavern and then to the bank of Peach Blossom Creek.
He called Wu Xichen down who was sitting on the roof drinking, and the two of them left Li's Mansion and headed towards Erjinggou Alley.
…
…
The business of the tavern under the banyan tree has not deteriorated because of the upcoming peach blossom wine. On the contrary, there are more customers coming to the tavern.
People were chatting softly in the tavern, sipping the rare and extremely expensive glass of wine, and talking about business or official matters.
Or maybe talking about some short stories between the parents...
Li Chenan said hello to the familiar guests. Su Muxin was not seen, only Cuihua was busy greeting the guests.
He and Wu Xichen walked into the backyard and found two people sitting in the pavilion in the backyard.
One is Su Muxin.
Another one surprised Li Chenan, she was Murong He.
"Back?"
"Yes," Murong He nodded, with a slight blush on his fat face.
"I was thinking that your tavern would be a little busy, so I could come back earlier and help you more."
Li Chenan laughed, "I'm afraid he's thinking of our Mr. Su!"
Murong He was immediately embarrassed, lowered his head, and his face became even redder.
Li Chenan sat on one side, and Su Muxin grinned: "Why are you free today?"
"On the eighth day of June, Peach Blossom Brew goes on sale. On the tenth day of June, Huapingchun goes on sale in the tavern."
Li Chenan looked around and said, "I just came to discuss with you about Hua Pingchun. This is what I think. The shop next door we bought will be decorated in this style."
"The backyard has been opened up, and we no longer make wine here. This backyard will be used for people to live in. We will also open a door for the two shops in front so that we can go back and forth."
"The price of Huapingchun will be further increased...to three taels of silver per catty, and the sales method will remain unchanged."
Su Muxin's eyes widened immediately, "It turns out that Huapingchun only costs two taels of silver per catty!"
"Yes, Huapingchun is better now. Of course it is more expensive. The sales are limited to twenty kilograms per day."
"But the price of peach blossom wine is only three hundred and fifty cents per catty... This is nearly ten times the price of peach blossom wine. Do you think this tavern will close down?"
Li Chenan laughed and patted Su Muxin on the shoulder: "Things are rare and valuable. Peach Blossom Brew is used to measure and defeat Guangling Powder."
"But the new Huapingchun is different. It is aimed at the wealthy merchants in our Guangling City. Believe me, at twenty pounds a day, it will still be in short supply!"
"...You are the boss, you have the final say."
"Okay, I won't delay your chat."
Li Chenan was about to get up and go to the wine shop, but was unexpectedly stopped by Murong He: "Wait a minute."
"What's the matter?"
"Didn't I ask you when I left if you wanted to be the helmsman of the Guangling City Fish and Dragon Club?"
Li Chenan was stunned for a moment, "I didn't say whether it should be done or not!"
"Yes, so I thought you acquiesced. When I arrived in Kyoto, I went to the chief helmsman of the Ichthyosaurus Association. I suggested it to you, and the chief helmsman agreed."
Murong He took out a dark sign from his arms and handed it to Li Chenan, "This is the helmsman's token for the helmsman of Guangling branch. From now on, you will be the helmsman of the Fish and Dragon Society."
"..."
Li Chenan chose this brand. The texture and carving workmanship were better than those from Lijing Division.
One side of this ink jade is carved with a lifelike dragon, and the other side is carved with a carp.
There are two small words below the carp: "No weapon!"
It should mean that a gentleman should not stick to means without thinking about the purpose behind them.
This seems to be much more educated than the silver medal from Lijing Division.
"How could Ichthyosaurus fall in love with a nobody like me?"
"You are famous in Kyoto! This matter was decided by Prime Minister Ji. When I left, Prime Minister Ji asked me to bring you a message."
"What words?"
"He said that he liked your song "Give a Toast" very much, especially the first line, "If you don't see it, the water from the Yellow River will come up from the sky..."
"He also said that he looks forward to meeting you in Yujing City one day and tells you to do a good job!"
Li Chenan was shocked and thought, am I considered a double agent now?
So which side should I help?
At this time Murong He spoke again: "Zhuyu Xiaozhu will be your place from now on. As for the person who is in Guangling's helm,"
She suddenly gave Li Chenan a meaningful look, "I don't know who killed them all last time, so you have to recruit again. In addition, your first task is to find the missing list of the Guangling sub-ruler. I will remember you for your great contribution.
One piece!”
"...Where's the money? Who will pay for it?"
"The check for you will be delivered soon."
"How many?"
"Ten thousand taels!"
The Ichthyosaurus Club is grand!
No one is as poor as Li Jingsi!
