"I...I..." Cao Han was a little incoherent. She didn't expect that she would spit out the drink. It was a bit too spicy, and her throat was still burning like a fire.
"It's all your wine's fault. Who told you to make the wine so bad?" She began to argue. With this reason, she felt much better. It must be the reason why the wine tasted so bad. What does it have to do with Cao Meili?
.
As for Pan Yuanwu and Cao Ping, both of them turned red. Even if they wanted to vomit, they swallowed it alive.
Pan Yuanwu choked and coughed twice, "Nephew Lu, your wine is good, but it's a little too strong and not as drinkable as others. It seems that the sales of your wine will be a problem in the future."
Lu Yao laughed, he had thought of this problem a long time ago.
"Old Li Tou" he shouted.
Lao Litou immediately brought over a dozen wine bottles with words like 20 degrees, 25 degrees, etc. on them, as well as nice-looking wine bottles. They contained fruit wines of various flavors. The alcohol content should not be too high.
, mostly between fifteen and twenty degrees.
"Uncle Pan might as well try the taste of these wines again."
General Pan Yuanwu doubtfully took out a wine bottle with 20 degrees written on it. After opening the cork, a fragrance floated out, which was no longer as strong as before. The wine poured out was also as transparent as white water.
At this time, he also learned a lesson. He took a sip and found that this wine was much better than before. He drank it all in one gulp and found that this wine was sweeter than before. Even a woman could take a sip.
Pan Yuanwu put down his wine glass and nodded and said: "This wine is good. I remember last time you told me that you wanted to supply wine to Fan Lou. Now I agree. As long as you have this 20-degree wine, you can go to Fan Lou."
We supply it in the building, but I don’t know how much wine you can supply every day, nephew Lu Xian, and what’s the price?”
Lu Yao made a two-two gesture to Pan Yuanwu, "I want to keep some of this 20-degree wine to sell in the store. The rest can supply twenty jars. The cost is two dollars per jar."
"Two guan?" Pan Yuanwu said in surprise. He didn't think there was any problem with the 20 guan. After all, the new store had just opened and the production capacity had not been increased. The output would gradually increase, but the two guan were a bit expensive.
Fanlou is the restaurant with the highest standards in Bianliang. The most expensive wine it sells is only 500 yuan. The bad wine circulating in the market only sells for more than a dozen yuan. For two guan, you can buy at least four bottles of Fan.
Lou's good wine is not something ordinary people can afford.
"Are you crazy about money?" Pan Yuanwu asked.
Lu Yao shook his head and said: "My uncle is wrong. It's not that Xiaonie's wine is expensive to buy, but that the cost of this kind of wine is extremely high. The cost of a jar is equivalent to about five times of the liquor on the market. So uncle still thinks that Xiaonie's wine is expensive."
It’s expensive, and uncle, you can taste the quality of the wine.”
Pan Yuanwu looked at Lu Yao with a smile but not a smile. He still knew the profit of wine. A five-hundred-dollar wine cost about two hundred yuan. Even if his cost was five times that of other wines, the final cost would be the same amount of money at most.
If he sells for two dollars at the same cost, he will call him a profiteer in his heart.
Lu Yao added: "If my uncle sincerely wants it, my nephew can lower the price and sell it to Fan Lou for five cents."
Pan Yuanwu nodded, thinking that Lu Yao was quite sensible and gave half of the profits to Fan Lou, so that everyone could make money.
Pan Yuanwu stood up and said, "If you drink this wine, I won't stay with you juniors. Remember to send twenty jars of wine to Fanlou tomorrow."
Lu Yao actually didn't want to be alone with the Cao brothers and sisters, but Pan Yuanwu insisted on leaving, and he was too embarrassed to keep him.
After sending him outside the hotel, Lu Yao returned. At this moment, the hall was shouting non-stop, almost all shouting about 20-proof or 25-proof liquor. Some people also wanted to drink 50-proof liquor, but this
The wine costs five guan, which is really prohibitive. However, the big man who drank the liquor in one gulp kept shouting for 50% liquor. His whole face turned red than a monkey's butt. Lu Yao began to worry about this.
How are you going to get back later?
When I came to the private room upstairs, I heard Cao Ping saying, "Little sister, try this quickly. This is delicious. Eat it soon, but there is no such shop in this village. You don't know what your brother wants to eat."
for how long."
Cao Ping also knows that Fanlou has recently produced a lot of new stir-fry dishes, but they are expensive! Any dish costs seven or eight dollars, so how can it be so satisfying to eat for free now?
Cao Ping still loved his sister. Cao Han couldn't eat the vegetables as fast as Cao Ping picked them up. The small bowls were piled up like a mountain, and Cao Ping was still building blocks on them.
Lu Yao felt that he had to remind them, "Ahem..."
Cao Ping just raised his head and glanced at Lu Yao, and continued to serve Cao Han. Cao Han wanted to order his face, but when he saw Lu Yao, he put down the chopsticks in his hand.
Cao Ping said: "No matter what he does, you eat what's yours. This food comes from his family. He can eat it whenever he wants. Today, our brother and sister ate all these dishes."
"Brother, I can't eat so much food." Cao Han felt that his face was almost humiliated by Cao Ping. He was so angry! He really wanted to sever the brother-sister relationship with Cao Ping.
"Nonsense, you usually feel hungry after eating three large bowls of rice at home, so if you don't eat more here, you can save some food for the family."
Lu Yao was stunned for a moment. He felt that this brother in the Song Dynasty had the habit of cheating on his younger brothers and sisters, just like Lu Hao.
"How about I go out for a while and come back after you brothers and sisters have eaten?" Lu Yao asked in a low voice.
"You still know some things, so go ahead and get busy so that my little sister won't feel uncomfortable eating."
Okay, I've become a nuisance, so I'll leave.
Lu Yao went downstairs without saying a word. Not only was Cao Ping a guest today, but the talented scholar Su was not with him.
Lu Yao searched for a long time before finding the three of them in the booth in the corner.
He patted Su Shi on the shoulder and saw a pair of red eyes. Looking at the two empty jars of fifty-percent wine and some messy barbecue on the table, he knew that these three people were drunk, and they were in a state of wandering for nine days.
kind.
Suddenly, Su Shi began to sing the rhythm to Lu Yao, but why did it sound so familiar to him?
Su Che and Pan Wen, who were lying on the table, suddenly became energetic.
The two of them came to the aisle together, swaying their bodies, and Pan Wen's fat body was simply unsightly.
Su Shi continued to beat the beat, getting more and more energetic, and his palms turned red without even realizing it.
Suddenly I heard Pan Wen singing in his ugly voice: "Who is singing, it warms the loneliness, the white clouds are long, the blue sky is still the same, the tears are drifting, in that vastness, living alone, seeing the distant heaven, the bright fireworks."
"
Lu Yao was stunned. The fat man knew how to sing after listening to Free Flying once, and even brought the two Su Shi brothers to sing together. Why did this style of painting go in a strange direction? The Su Xian in his heart was not like this.
.
Su Che sang along: "Who is singing?"
Su Shi said, "Hey! It warms the loneliness. The white clouds are lingering, the blue sky is still blue, and the tears are drifting."
The surrounding guests all clapped and applauded, and even worse, threw money at Pan Wen's feet and shouted: "You dance very well, you sing very well. This is a reward for you."
Lu Yao hid his face and walked away, not wanting to be with these shameful people. He sighed in his heart, is there a normal person besides himself in this place?
Lu Yao stood at the door of the restaurant thinking about life. Cao Ping took Cao Han out of the restaurant and was about to talk to Lu Yao, but when he opened his mouth, he burped.
Lu Yao felt like he was really going crazy.
Cao Ping clasped his fists and said, "I'm sorry, dear brother, we'll discuss the matter in a few days. I have to take two jars of wine back to honor my father, and I won't stay in your shop any longer."
Before Lu Yao asked if he had paid for the drinks, he saw the two brothers and sister disappearing into the street as if they were running away. From this look, he knew that there was no money to pay.
If there were more people like Cao Ping in the restaurant, the restaurant would definitely go bankrupt in a few days.
Lu Yao didn't plan to stay in the restaurant for too long. He had nothing to do. He could leave all operations to Lao Litou and the others. They also had enough wine to sell for half a month, so there was no need to worry.
Now is the time to visit my future father-in-law.
Carrying two jars of 35% white wine, Lu Yao walked to Han Mansion.
As soon as he arrived at the street entrance, he saw Lu Hao running towards him in a hurry.
"Erlang, Erlang, stop, why are you running so fast?"
Did he run fast? He didn't think so. Seeing Lu Hao panting, he thought that maybe he was missing his uncle, so he walked a little faster.
Lu Hao came closer, and Lu Yao asked: "Brother, what do you want from me?"
"It's not me who has trouble with you, it's father who has trouble with you. Don't go anywhere else. Come back home with me as soon as possible."
Since my father is busy, I will go to my father-in-law another day.
Then he followed Lu Hao and ran to Lu Mansion.
Lu Xu pulled Lu Yao and ran in another direction without saying a word.
Lu Yao was confused. You guys are just playing rally.
I ran all the way across Zhouqiao and stopped under a city gate with the words Danfeng Gate written on it.
Two guards stepped forward and saluted Lu Xu and shouted, "Master Lu."
"Get out of the way quickly, the officials have something urgent to do with me."
The guard looked a little embarrassed, pointed to the thing in Lu Yao's hand and said, "He brought something with him."
Only then did Lu Xu realize that Lu Yao was carrying two jars, "Why are you still carrying something here?"
Lu Yao said innocently: "You never gave me a chance to put down my things."
The guard said: "Please Sir Lu, please be accommodating. We need to ask what is in the altar before we can let you in."
Lu Yao opened the wine cork and said, "It's nothing, just two jars of wine."
The guards determined that they were drunk and let Lu Yao and his son enter the Danfeng Gate.
We ran all the way through Danlei Gate and Wende Gate and arrived at Wende Hall.
Seeing the eunuch standing outside the Wende Hall, Lu Yao knew that he had come to the palace, but why did his father bring him to the palace?
After the eunuch made the announcement, he opened the door of Wende Palace.
As soon as Lu Yao saw him, he saw a middle-aged man wearing a red official robe sitting on the main seat. He looked slightly fat and he could tell at a glance that he was an honest man, more like a kind uncle next door.
At a glance, you can tell that this is Song Renzong Zhao Zhen, an emperor who ruled the world with benevolence and one of the few good emperors.
There were three old people sitting in front of the hall. Lu Yao didn't even read history and knew that in the first year of Jiayou's reign, only Wen Yanbo, Fu Bi and Zeng Gongliang could stand in the Wende Hall. He didn't know who the three of them were.
Who is it?
Lu Xu stepped forward and saluted Song Renzong respectfully, "Guan family, I have brought Erlang here."
Lu Yao also bowed respectfully to Song Renzong. After all, he saw the living emperor with his own eyes. It was a lie if he didn't feel excited.
Song Renzong raised his eyes when he saw Lu Yao coming. He had heard this name a lot recently, and he was somewhat interested in someone who could make his two ministers almost fight in court.
"Everyone is free of charge!"
When Song Renzong saw that Lu Yao was still holding the jar in his hand, he smiled and said, "Lu Erlang is here to give me a gift."
Wen Yanbo and the other three people on the side all had smiles on their faces. Lu Xu regretted that she had not allowed Lu Yao to bring the wine into the palace.
