The spicy chips sold today were sold out quickly with regular customers, and they were sold out by noon.After selling the spicy films, the two of them were not in a hurry to leave Litang Town, but were going to go to the inn to see how much the wine in the town was selling for.

Instead of going to other inns, they went to the largest Lanyue Inn in the town.

Yuan Liuzhen asked Tao Fu if he had been to the Lanyue Inn. Tao Fu said that he hadn't been to the Lanyue Inn. The two sold spicy slices for a lot of money just now, so Yuan Liuzhen decided to have a good meal at the Lanyue Inn.Thinking of this, he and Tao Fu walked into the Lanyue Inn, Xiao Er warmly invited them to sit in, and they were led by Xiao Er to sit by the window.

Yuan Liuzhen took out a tael of silver and put it on the table, and said to Xiao Er like a classic scene in a martial arts drama: "Bring me the best wine and best dishes in your store."

Xiaoer's eyes lit up when he saw the one tael of money, and he said to them more enthusiastically after receiving the money: "Go right away."

When Xiaoer Yiyi brought the dishes and wine, the whole table was full.

Tao Fu was surprised that Yuan Liuzhen would order a table of dishes. He wanted to ask Yuan Liuzhen, but Yuan Liuzhen smiled and said, "I'll tell you when I go back."

After the dishes were served, Yuan Liuzhen picked up the chopsticks and said to Tao Fu, "Fu, try these dishes."

When Tao Fu told Yuan Liuzhen to let him taste these dishes, he knew that Yuan Liuzhen must have Yuan Liuzhen's intentions in letting him taste these dishes.

Therefore, the two of them didn't just eat when they ate. Tao Fu was mainly responsible for tasting the food, and Yuan Liuzhen looked at the best dishes, and then thought about the popular dishes in the 21st century and some of the dishes he knew. way of doing.

Yuan Liuzhen looked at the dishes on the table, and found that they were basically meat, and there were more ingredients such as chicken, duck, fish, and elbow. After tasting the taste, he found that these dishes tasted really good. Tao Fu's dishes taste better, but some dishes are not as good as Tao Fu's dishes.He ate very seriously, and after eating for a while, he saw Xiaoer bring wine and asked Tao Fu: "Ah Fu, do you want to drink?"

Tao Fu shook his head quickly: "No."

Seeing Tao Fu's refusal face, Yuan Liuzhen knew that Tao Fu would not dare to drink for a long time. He took a look at the bottle and capacity of this wine, which was similar to the bottle of red wine they brought, not the particularly big one. The wine jar and the bottle look less expensive than the one Tao Fu bought.

Tao Fu didn't drink alcohol, so Yuan Liuzhen had to pour some for himself, and drank while eating vegetables. The concentration of this wine was not particularly high. It should be wine made from high-quality grain. I want to take a second sip, and it is very enjoyable to eat with this table of delicious dishes.

The two of them shared half of the food at the table and were already full, but in order not to waste it, the two of them could still eat as long as they were physically fit.By the time they finished eating a table of dishes, Yuan Liuzhen had already finished a bottle of wine.

Tao Fu looked at Yuan Liuzhen, who had already finished a bottle of wine, and noticed Yuan Liuzhen's complexion, and found that Yuan Liuzhen had no abnormalities except that her face was a little red.He was thinking that he must have been dreaming that night, right?Yuan Liuzhen didn't show anything after drinking so much alcohol. With Yuan Liuzhen's capacity for alcohol, it was absolutely impossible for him to have anything to do with him that night.What Tao Fu didn't know was that drinking white wine and red wine together was easier to get drunk than just drinking one kind of wine.

After the meal, both of them were full. The food and wine tasted good, worthy of the name of the largest inn in the town. However, if the food was not good, the inn would not be so big.

Yuan Liuzhen went to the front to settle the silver bill with Xiao Er. During the settlement, Xiao Er reported the price of each dish and wine. The wine cost [-] Wen, the dishes cost [-] Wen, and the last [-] Wen was left. Yuan Liuzhen took the [-] Wen, Stuffing the one hundred coins into the small second hand, he said with a smile, "Is your shopkeeper there? I have something to tell him."

"Yes, I'm going to find the shopkeeper here." Xiaoer looked at the one hundred Wen coins Yuan Liuzhen sent to his hand, and couldn't believe it. He smiled so much that his eyes narrowed. This tall and serious guest He is the most generous guest he has ever seen, so it must be a good thing to find the shopkeeper.

Thinking of this, Xiao Er immediately went upstairs to ask the shopkeeper to come down, and told the shopkeeper that the customer spent almost a tael of silver for a meal, and wanted to see him, the shopkeeper thought he was a distinguished guest, so he hurried downstairs.

Yuan Liuzhen and Tao Fu waited below for a while, and saw a man in his thirties coming down the stairs behind Xiaoer. The man looked thinner and frail. Yuan Liuzhen and Tao Fu laughed quickly: "I heard that the two young masters are looking for you."

"Yes, if it's convenient, can we talk in a quiet place?" Yuan Liuzhen said.

"Of course, Master, come with me." The shopkeeper led them to a private room, and invited them in.

After several people sat down, Yuan Liuzhen said to the shopkeeper: "I'm Yuan Liuzhen, it's like this, I ate the wine and food at the expensive inn today, and I thought it tasted very good, I want to discuss cooperation with you, I wonder if you have any intentions here? "

"Cooperation?" The shopkeeper asked in surprise when he saw Yuan Liuzhen straight to the point.

"I just want to talk to you about business. I have a kind of wine that I brew by myself, and I want to sell it at your inn." Yuan Liuzhen took out the wine bottle containing red wine and pushed it in front of the shopkeeper, saying: "This kind of wine is called red wine. It tastes like yours. You can try it, brewed from a kind of fruit, the process is extremely complicated."

When Yuan Liuzhen said this, Tao Fu listened carefully. He knew that the production process of red wine is simple, but red wine is indeed rare, and they only have 86 bottles, and they drink one bottle less.

Yuan Liuzhen personally poured a small glass of red wine for the shopkeeper. When the shopkeeper saw the purple-red liquid, he was very surprised and smelled it again. It really smelled like wine. The taste immediately attracted him. He had never tasted it before, but it was very delicious. It was the same as the best quality wine sold in their inn. It was very comfortable to drink.

Yuan Liuzhen explained: "This kind of wine doesn't feel like drinking, but if you drink too much, you will feel drunk soon after drinking. Drinking in moderation is good for your body."

"So good?" The shopkeeper was a little suspicious, "Then how do we cooperate?"

"This wine is sold for one bottle less, and it is impossible to have it again this year after it is sold out, so the price is slightly more expensive, with a minimum of 350 ren per bottle. I borrowed your inn to sell the wine to you, and you can recommend it to you. Customer, if the customer sells it, you can sell it to the customer. You can sell it at a price higher than 350 Wen, and you can keep the extra money for yourself, or you can sell it at 350 Wen. The fee is ten Wen. That is to say, whether you sell 350 Wen or more, I will pay you fifty Wen per bottle." Yuan Liuzhen was thinking early in the morning that they sell spicy sticks, Spicy slices, crispy rice, etc. Most of the people who come into contact with it are impossible to buy such expensive things as wine. I don’t know when they will sell out all the red wine. They don’t have the financial strength to open an inn or restaurant, and they don’t have channels to ask the inn to help sell them. It is the most convenient, and can earn money as soon as possible to repay Tao Fu's debts.

After hearing this, the shopkeeper thought for a while and said, "Don't we need to spend money to buy all the wine and then sell it ourselves? Although this wine tastes good, I haven't seen it before, but we don't know whether this wine can make money. If you dare to promise your son, you will sell it."

"It doesn't matter. I'll bring the wine here. You can recommend it to the guests. You can sell a bottle of 350 Wen or [-] Wen or more. If you sell a bottle of red wine, you only need to pay me [-] Wen. If you can't sell it, you can return it." We, if you can't sell even a bottle, I can pay you ten cents a day for your hard work, so that you won't lose a penny. This kind of wine is actually very suitable for gifting to elders. It's novel and delicious." Yuan Liuzhen said .

After hearing this, the shopkeeper felt that this kind of method is equivalent to selling things on credit, and paying the people who are credited after selling the money. This method is very novel.They must have experienced a situation like this in such a big inn, but this kind of situation will only be sold without paying when they are very familiar with each other and trust each other.He and the two people in front of him met for the first time, and they cooperated in this way. Aren't the two people in front of them afraid of being cheated?Besides, what Yuan Liuzhen said is right, no one has seen this kind of wine before, and it tastes good, and what it sells is novelty.

Yuan Liuzhen saw that the shopkeeper was thinking about the feasibility of this matter, and said: "This wine is divided into several types according to the sweetness. The taste is different, but it has a unique flavor. It can be sold at different prices. If you agree, next time Market, I'll bring you some more."

The shopkeeper didn't think about it for a long time. After all, they didn't spend a penny on this transaction, and it was just a matter of raising their hands. Besides, this kind of wine is really novel, and it's very good to take a bottle to give the elders a taste at home.

"Okay, I think it's feasible." The shopkeeper nodded.

"Since the shopkeeper agrees, let's write a contract, which is similar to writing what we just said on paper. After the two parties confirm that there is no problem, they will sign and mark it in duplicate." Yuan Liuzhen said.

After hearing this, the shopkeeper felt even more novel. It turned out that when they didn't know each other, they needed to sign a "contract" to fulfill their promises. The first time he heard this, he didn't feel disgusted, but felt that he could use this method in the future. Use it with other people.

"Yes." The shopkeeper nodded, and asked Xiaoer to fetch pens, ink, paper and inkstone.

Yuan Liuzhen knew that the shopkeeper didn't know how to write a contract, so he started to write it himself. The content was similar to the content of a modern contract. There were Party A and Party B. He wrote everything he just said before he stopped writing.

The shopkeeper has been watching Yuan Liuzhen write. When Yuan Liuzhen started writing, he was not particularly surprised. Although there are few literate people in the town, it is not impossible, but there are people in the town who can read and write so well. All the words come when they pick up the pen. A lot of books.Therefore, he looked at Yuan Liuzhen even more differently.When he first went downstairs and saw the two of them, what he thought was Yuan Liuzhen's clothes, he didn't look like a villager, but Tao Fu's clothes looked cheap even though they were clean, so he couldn't be sure of their identities.Now seeing Yuan Liuzhen's good handwriting, I am even more curious about Yuan Liuzhen's identity.

Yuan Liuzhen stopped writing, and showed the contract to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper, please take a look, if there is no problem, we can sign and draw a deposit."

"Okay, let me take a look." The shopkeeper took the contract and read it through. He found that the content was brief, the key points were appropriate, there was no fancy rhetoric, but the matter was clearly explained, and there was nothing harmful to him. As expected, he told Yuan Liuzhen just now The same, then nodded and said: "No problem."

"Okay, then let's sign the contract. I will sign on Party A's side, and you will sign on Party B's side." After Yuan Liuzhen finished speaking, she signed her name and pressed her fingerprints very elegantly.

The shopkeeper took the contract and saw Yuan Liuzhen's signature. The vigorous and powerful brushwork must have been able to be achieved from a young age. Thinking of this, he had the idea of ​​getting in touch with Yuan Liuzhen more. He picked up the brush and signed his name, and pressed handprint.

There are two contracts in total, one for each person.

Yuan Liuzhen took the contract and read the name "Shen Lanyue" on the contract, and then she knew why the inn was called "Lanyue Inn".

When Yuan Liuzhen left, she gave the bottle of red wine to Shen Lanyue directly, so Shen Lanyue had a better impression of Yuan Liuzhen and Tao Fu.The red wine is priced at 350 renminbi, and the value is 350 renminbi. Yuan Liuzhen easily gave him 350 renminbi items like this. He is generous, smart in business, and good at writing. If he can get along well, he may learn a lot. .Especially the way of selling things and the contract, these seem to be things that few people have done, but they are very convenient in some cases.

Yuan Liuzhen and Tao Fu drove back in a bullock cart after leaving the Lanyue Inn. They needed to go back as soon as possible to find Uncle Man to discuss making spicy noodles and crispy rice. They needed to prepare enough spicy noodles before the next market came. Noodles, crispy rice, spicy slices, red wine and other things, there are still many things to do.

When he was on his way, Tao Fu asked the doubts in his heart, "Zhenzhen went to Lanyue Inn today not only to sell wine?"

"Of course it's not just about selling red wine. It's inconvenient for us to go to the town to catch the market every time. When we do well in the future and have some money, we can start a restaurant or a shop. An inn as big as the Moon Inn."

Tao Fu has never thought about opening an inn. He has always wanted to serve the court like his father in the army since he was a child, and after years of experience in making money and paying off debts, he needs to work hard to make money. An inn is something you can't even think about.

"We went to the Lanyue Inn today, firstly because we can't get in touch with rich people, we can't sell red wine at a good price and sell slowly, and secondly, let's taste the food at the best inn in the town. I still have some experience in running an inn. Third, if I can get in touch with the shopkeeper of the Lanyue Inn and deal with the relationship well, it will be easy to sell things in the town in the future. Nothing like Yue Wenyao has happened in Litang Town. But if we do a good business, we must guard against someone with a heart.” Yuan Liuzhen knows that in business, sometimes it is necessary to have a relationship. He has no relatives here, and Tao Fu has no relationship. If he wants to grow in the future, he must have someone to rely on. As soon as he saw Shen Lanyue, he felt that Shen Lanyue was a partner who could get along with him.

After Tao Fu heard this, he was a little silent. He felt very sorry for what happened to Yue Wenyao last time.Yuan Liuzhen's ability to think so much and think so thoroughly is entirely for the sake of their future business development, which he feels is necessary.

Seeing that Tao Fu was silent, Yuan Liuzhen didn't know what he was thinking, so he changed the subject and said, "I'll be back in a while, I'll go to Uncle Man's house and talk to Uncle Man about making horseradish and crispy rice, and you can discuss it with Niang Li. See if we can go to Litang Town together in the future and ask Li Niang to help sell horseradish, crispy rice and other things, and the wages will be 120 Wen per trip."

"Okay, I got it, I will tell Li Niang. Li Niang should agree, now Li Niang and Li Niang's father are the only two in Li Niang's family. Life is very difficult."

Yuan Liuzhen didn't know much about the situation of Li Niang's family. Hearing what Tao Fu said, he couldn't help asking: "Why is there only Li Niang and Li Niang's father in Li Niang's family?"

Li Niang should not be so old.

"Li Niang used to have married relatives in other villages, but after getting married, she had nothing to do and was divorced. Li Niang went back to Liyao Village to take care of her father. Li Niang's father farmed the land a few years ago, and he could earn some money by going to the mountains to collect herbs. Yinqian, who was rescued by me in an accident two years ago, can only deal with daily life now.” Speaking of this, Tao Fu sighed.

Yuan Liuzhen was a little surprised when he heard this. Li Niang was enthusiastic and always smiled when he saw people. He thought that Li Niang was doing well, not to mention very good, and she was similar to ordinary villagers. She could be self-sufficient. I have to take care of my injured father alone.In this situation, Li Niang didn't see any haze, Li Niang was really strong.

"Then you tell Li Niang to come and collect 150 essays." Yuan Liuzhen didn't know what to say, so he could only give Li Niang some more money.

"Okay." Tao Fu also agreed.It's a lot to give 150 Wen, but if they make more horseradish and crispy rice, they can definitely earn it back.

After returning to the courtyard, the two of them took a rest, not daring to delay, Yuan Liuzhen went directly to Uncle Man, and Tao Fu went to Li Niang.

It was already dark when Yuan Liuzhen went up the mountain. However, he and Tao Fu often walked the road in the mountain before. It was safer, so he didn't worry about it. If it was too late, he could spend the night on the mountain.

Before he left, he had already told Tao Fu that Tao Fu had said that he would go with him, but he refused to let Tao Fu make more tofu skins after returning from Li Niang's, otherwise they would run out of dried tofu skins , there is no way to make spicy chips.

Seeing that Yuan Liuzhen refused to let him go together, Tao Fu had no choice but to go to Li Niang first and then go back to make tofu skin according to Yuan Liuzhen's wishes.

When Yuan Liuzhen came to Uncle Man's house, it was completely dark.

He knocked on the gate of Uncle Man's yard, but it was not Uncle Man who came to open the door, but a woman with a clear and pleasant voice. When the woman opened the gate of the yard, Yuan Liuzhen saw at a glance that the woman was about 1.6 meters tall and dressed in fine clothes , looks very juicy, and looks about the same age as him.

When the woman saw him, she was taken aback and quickly asked, "Who are you?"

"I'm Yuan Liuzhen, I'm here to find Uncle Man."

"Looking for uncle? Then come in."

After the woman greeted him and entered the room, he saw that besides Uncle Man and Xiao Man, there was also a brother who was older than Uncle Man in the room. Wearing a lot of jewelry.

Seeing that it was him, Uncle Man warmly greeted him to come in and sit down.

Uncle Man also introduced them to him as distant relatives. The girl who opened the door was called Liang Xueer, and the older brother was called Lu Yanshu, who was Liang Xueer's father.

Uncle Man also introduced Yuan Liuzhen to the two of them.

Yuan Liuzhen listened embarrassingly to the chat between Lu Yanshu and Uncle Man for a while, as if he wanted to say goodbye to Liang Xueer, because he didn't know what they talked about before, so he heard it in a blur and didn't pay much attention to it.

Lu Yanshu and Liang Xueer didn't sit for long before bidding farewell to Uncle Man, and drove away in a carriage.

After the two left, Yuan Liuzhen talked to Uncle Man about making spicy sticks and crispy rice. "Uncle Man, it's like this. Before, you knew that Fu and I went to Litang Town to sell horseradish and crispy rice. Now I Fu and I are busy making other snacks, so we don’t have time to make horseradish and crispy rice. You haven’t been working in the town recently, so I don’t know if you can help me here?”

"Yes, how can I help?" Uncle Man asked enthusiastically when he heard that he could help.

"That is, if you are not busy in the future, I need you to go over here early in the morning to help us make horseradish and crispy rice. After they are ready, go to Litang Town with us to sell them. In terms of wages, it is 180 yuan for a trip. If you sell more later, you can buy them later." Up, after you learn how to cook horseradish and crispy rice, you can sell it yourself, what do you think?"

"No problem, it's just that you and Fu want to tell me how to make horseradish and crispy rice?" Uncle Man was a little excited, but he also understood the value of it. He had eaten horseradish, and he still misses it even now Taste, if you can learn it, you won't have to work so hard in the future.Thinking of this, he felt that Yuan Liuzhen and Tao Fu were too bad to do so, so he said: "I will talk about the recipe of horseradish and crispy rice later, and I can help. 180 essays are too much."

"Not much, not much, because I helped make the horseradish and crispy rice, and we have to drive the ox cart to Litang Town together, and we can only come back after driving the market the next day, which is equivalent to two days, and I am worried that there will be less for Uncle Man. "There is no way now, most of the time is on the road, if the daily cost exceeds 180, the cost is too high.

"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. I know it's a long way to Litang Town, and there's nothing I can do on the road most of the time. Besides, I didn't do any work on the road." Uncle Man said with a hearty smile.

"Then it's settled. You can come here directly tomorrow morning. Fu will prepare a meal for you and Xiaoman in advance."

"Okay, I see."

After discussing the specific time with Uncle Man, he walked up the mountain. He originally planned to sleep in the thatched hut on the mountain, so it would be convenient to go down the mountain early in the morning. Unexpectedly, it started to rain heavily in the middle of the night, and the thatched hut was too cold, so he had to go and talk to Tao before going to the mountain. He slept in the cave where Fu lived.

The bamboo bed that he slept in the cave last time was very clean. He lay on it, thinking of what happened with Tao Fu last time, maybe because it happened here, he was lying on the bed again, the hazy picture It became clear in an instant, and every detail was clear, making him flushed and having difficulty breathing, his whole body began to heat up, and he couldn't help but touch the places he hardly touched.

The picture seemed to become clear, as if Tao Fu was beside him, making him silent.

The icy rainy night is not so icy.

Waking up early in the morning, Yuan Liuzhen checked the robes on his body for the first time. After finding that they were clean, he was relieved. Fortunately, he was conscious last night, otherwise he would have soiled another set of robes, and he couldn't explain it to Tao Fu. .

When he woke up, it was very early, there was no rain outside the cave, and the ground was not so slippery. It should be that the showers came and went quickly last night.

When he went down the mountain, he was still thinking about what happened last night, because of what happened last night, he was now very sure of his thoughts on Tao Fu, but he was so strong, how could he have the nerve to say anything to Tao Fu?It would be too embarrassing if Tao Fu refused.Thinking about it, he decided to forget it and let nature take its course.

Going down the mountain and back to the yard, Tao Fu was already busy, so he hurried over to help with steaming rice, making spicy slices and so on.

It didn't take long for Uncle Man and Xiao Man to come to their yard. After Uncle Man came to their yard, he came over to help directly. With Uncle Man's help, the two of them really relaxed a lot.Because Uncle Man still doesn't know how to make spicy noodles and crispy rice, the two of them told Uncle Man to help while making them.

Busy and busy, it was almost the same time as before, and they just finished their work. If it weren't for Uncle Man's help, the two of them would never be able to finish their work.

After they were busy, they ate rice with pickled vegetables, stir-fried vegetables, horseradish, spicy slices and other things cooked by Tao Fu, and they were very full.Especially Uncle Man and Xiaoman, they hadn’t eaten spicy strips and crispy rice for a long time, and they ate a lot, and even had spicy sliced ​​steamed buns, and were immediately attracted by the delicious taste of spicy sliced ​​steamed buns.Both Uncle Man and Xiaoman ate more than usual.

After eating, they cleaned up the dishes and the stove together, and Tao Fu went to call Li Niang.

Yesterday, Tao Fu told Li Niang about going to the town to sell things, and Li Niang's eyes turned red after hearing that.They have been having a hard time since their father was injured, and it would have been even more difficult if Tao Fu hadn't been there to help.Now Tao Fu took her to the town to sell snacks and gave her a salary as high as 150 Wen. She wanted to refuse to accept the wages, but Tao Fu said that Yuan Liuzhen decided the salary.She was very grateful, and felt that this was a rare opportunity, and she had to help Tao Fu and Yuan Liuzhen sell snacks.She got up early in the morning to take care of her father, and had to cook enough meals for two days.As soon as she finished cooking, Tao Fu came to look for her.After she told Father, she left with Tao Fu.

Tao Fu went to the village to borrow two bullock carts. He and Uncle Man drove one bullock cart. The bullock cart was full of horseradish, crispy rice, spicy slices, and ten bottles of red wine to be sent to Lanyue Inn. Ten bottles of red wine were placed in a wooden box that Yuan Liuzhen asked Tao Fu to make.

Because there are two ox carts, they made a lot more crispy rice and horseradish this time than they did before.

Tao Fu sat with Yuan Liuzhen in the car, and Uncle Man sat with Li Niang and Xiao Man in the car.

Uncle Man is very talkative. After getting acquainted with Li Niang before, he didn't see him at this time, and he didn't feel awkward talking to Li Niang. Yuan Liuzhen and Tao Fu took a look and felt relieved.

On the way, Yuan Liuzhen talked about some interesting stories, which always made several people laugh.
