Me and my Jianghu Tavern

Gu Qingshan laughed out loud, and he didn't know what could make him laugh so heartily.

Chapter 4: Mission Complete

In front of the thatched hut, a man in sackcloth sat cross-legged on the ground, holding a white civet cat in his arms.

He gently stroked the civet cat's forehead and looked at the official road in the distance.

In the blink of an eye, it was three or four days, and in these days, the rivers and lakes of the corridor came again.

He asked a few questions from time to time, and the recklessness of the world did not make things difficult for him. Of course, he would encounter a few arrogant masters, but he ignored them.

In half a month, the oiran competition in Qingyu Tower will start. During this period, people from most of the rivers and lakes in the south of the Yangtze River will come here, and Jian'an City will gradually become lively.

"Oiran Dabi...do you want to go and have a look?"

Zhang Ming was a little curious, after all, this was something new he had never seen before.

"And this Qingyu Tower, I thought it was a brothel, but it is actually a power in the world."

There are seven major forces in the righteous way of the rivers and lakes, Wanjiange, Daozong, Feihuatai, Qingyulou, Baihuagu, Haoranzong, and Dugu Jianmen.

Qingyu Towers are all women. It is said that this Qingyu Tower was founded by a brothel woman from the former capital city. It has existed for hundreds of years, but this is just a rumor from the outside world, and there is no way to know the details.

But what is certain is that Qingyu Tower has the shortest existence time among the seven major forces, and it is also the fastest rising.

"But having said that, compared to Qingyu Tower, I am more curious about this Dugu Sword Gate."

From what people in the Jianghu said, this Dugu Jianmen is the most special one among the seven major forces.

Because there is only one person in Dugu Jianmen.

This person has become one of the seven major forces in Jianghu by himself, which shows how terrifying he is.

But there are also many people who are dissatisfied, thinking that it should be the six major forces, and Dugu Jianmen is not considered an influence. As for the next story... there is no more.

"Dugu? Dugu seeks defeat?"

Zhang Ming smiled, this person is also surnamed Dugu, could it be that this person also created the Dugu Nine Swords?

"They didn't say their names, maybe they really are." Zhang Ming said jokingly.

He wanted to ask before, but they didn't seem to know, so he gave up.

He became one of the seven major forces with his own power, yet the Jianghu people don't even know his name, he is a weirdo.

"It's all miscellaneous things. Forget it, I'll go and see my bar."

Zhang Ming squeezed Xiao Qi away from his arms, and Xiao Qi, who was sleeping, was suddenly frightened.

"Meow!!!" Xiao Qi frowned, he was sleeping so comfortably that he dared to disturb his sleep.

"Sleep on the side."

Zhang Ming waved his hand. He didn't bother to talk to Xiao Qi. Since preparing food for it, this guy has become more and more lazy, and he stopped playing and slept all day long.

Xiaoqi wagged his tail, looking like he was about to fight, Zhang Ming turned his head and walked away without even looking at it.

…………

Before coming to the rice vat, Zhang Ming had already smelled the aroma of rice and wine from fermented glutinous rice.

Lifting the straw spread on it, the mountain spring water has been stained with the turbidity of glutinous rice, and some whiskers are yellowish, which is caused by the addition of sweet-scented osmanthus.

"It seems to be done, try it."

Zhang Ming scooped out some fermented glutinous rice from a small bowl, put it to his mouth and took a sip.

The entrance is a bit sweet and sour, and the sour and sweet taste are just right. Accompanied by bursts of wine aroma, it flows into the throat. Only at this time does the taste of wine appear.

Slowly, a scent of sweet-scented osmanthus blooms in the mouth, with endless aftertaste.

"Delicious!"

After taking a sip, Zhang Ming's eyes lit up. How could the wine he brewed be so delicious?

He drank a lot of good and famous wines when he met clients, but this was the first time he drank such wines.

Is this still wine?

It's so delicious too.

He doesn't know how to taste wine, but he can be sure that the fermented glutinous rice in the bowl is definitely top-notch, and it's not a problem to kill most of the good wine in seconds.

【[Magazinous glutinous rice wine] brewing is complete, and the grade of the wine is being tested...】

【Detection completed!Wine grade: [excellent] (not high-quality goods); because the host added sweet-scented osmanthus to the wine; it is being re-evaluated...]

【Osmanthus fermented glutinous rice wine】

——[Comprehensive wine grade]: [Excellent product]

——[Special effect]: None

[[Magazine wine] Mission completed! 】

【Distributing rewards...】

[The host is bold and innovative, and gets a random extra reward × 1]

[Random wine × 1, restaurant renovation opportunity × 1, random extra reward × 1, have been distributed to the inventory, please pay attention to check! 】

"Fortunately..."

Zhang Ming breathed a sigh of relief, he was a little panicked when he saw that the standard was not met at first.

"Sure enough... the simpler things are, the more difficult they are."

If I don't add sweet-scented osmanthus, maybe this wine is only at the level of [excellent], and this task will be blown.

Being able to reach an excellent level is entirely due to the system's good materials, and has nothing to do with one's own brewing technology.

"Open the random reward."

[Random rewards are being opened...]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the perfect-level skill book "64 Arts of Brewing" x 1; do you want to learn this skill book? 】

"Yes!"

A lot of wine-making processes and techniques flooded into Zhang Ming's mind, from water intake to measurement step by step with incomparable precision.

[Name]: Zhang Ming

【Level】: LV0 (5/10)

【Strength】: not popular

[Skill]: "64 Arts of Brewing" (perfect [max])

[Task]: None

[Item]: Restaurant renovation opportunity x 1, random wine x 1

"This skill book is actually full level, good stuff!!"

Zhang Ming was a little overjoyed. The skill books were also divided into levels. The perfect level was the best, and the worst was the elementary level.

What's more, what I happen to lack is brewing technology, so I brought it directly to myself now.

"Added five points?"

"It should be brought from brewing fermented glutinous rice wine, and I don't know what is the use of this grade."

These are not the most important. What Zhang Ming values ​​more is the opportunity to renovate the restaurant, which he has been looking forward to for a long time.

There is also a question mark item in the item column. The question mark represents a random item, just like opening a box, it depends on luck.

[Using [Random Wine] x 1, drawing is in progress...]

[Congratulations to the host for obtaining the wine product: [Plum Blossom Wine]]

【Plum blossom wine】

——[Wine Grade]: [Fine Quality]

——[Special effect]: dispelling cold

"High-end boutique?"

Zhang Ming shook his head, he still doesn't understand how the system grades, and the [special effect], cold?what is this?

The wines that passed through the hands of the system are not ordinary wines, he is still groping for these and can't understand them at all.

It seems that only by slowly discovering can we figure it out.

Regardless of these, it is better to renovate this thatched shed first.

"Use the restaurant renovation opportunity."

[Used item [Restaurant Renovation Opportunity] × 1]

[The renovation of the restaurant is in progress, it is expected to take eight hours and 59 minutes...]

A white light flashed in front of his eyes, and the thatched cottage in front of Zhang Ming disappeared in place.

"pat..."

Xiaoqi, who was lying on the table, fell to the ground, and looked around in a daze.

"???"

"Meow?"

What about the house?

What about my big house?

crooked?I didn't lick it?Why is it swollen?

Chapter 5: But this is fermented glutinous rice

"More than eight hours, it's a bit long."

Suddenly, he froze for a moment, thinking of a very serious problem.

"But, today I..."

"Where do you live?"

Although the thatched hut was a bit broken, it could at least keep out the wind and rain. Although it was sunny during the day, it was very cold at night.

And this is not inside the city, there are mountains next to the official road, and there are many wild animals at night, so it is not safe.

With his physique, I'm afraid it might be difficult.

The system page was still counting down, eight hours and 56 minutes, the thatched hut disappeared immediately, which made Zhang Ming very depressed.

"Meow!"

Xiaoqi ran over, tugged at Zhang Ming's trouser legs, and pointed at the disappearing thatched cottage with his claws.

The civet cat's eyes are full of doubts, which seems to be beyond its cognition of things.

Zhang Ming raised his forehead and said, "It has nothing to do with me."

[Countdown to renovation: 57 hours [-]]

[Tavern Items]: Three taels of silver, fifty copper coins, and ten catties of glutinous rice wine.

【PS: Tavern items can be taken out through the system during the renovation. 】

The sudden notice made Zhang Ming a little puzzled. Fermented glutinous rice wine knew about it, but where did the extra money come from?

He stayed in the thatched hut for so long, but he didn't find half a dime. Where did the money come from.

"Could it be that this silver was left by the original owner of this body? It's just hidden and I didn't find it?"

Zhang Ming shook his head, regardless of where the money came from, anyway, the system said it was his, so it was his.

Looking at the system's inventory, there were indeed more silver taels and fermented glutinous rice wine. With a thought, three taels of silver and some copper coins appeared in the palm of his hand.
