I have a comprehension wasteland world

Chapter 8
In the evening, Zhou Yuan finished his practice, but after practicing all afternoon, he didn't feel much, and he didn't even feel true energy. On the contrary, it was not as good as that set of stretching movements.

Seeing that he seemed dissatisfied, Huang Rong snorted and said, "It takes half a day for the method of practicing Qi to produce results, and even today's empresses can't do it at such a speed. Laugh."

Zhou Yuan stood up and twisted his body, making a crackling bone sound, and asked, "Master Huang, how long does it usually take to feel the existence of true energy?"

Huang Rong said with a playful smile: "It takes three or four days for those with good talents, and a few months or even a year for those with mediocre talents. Those with poor talents will not be able to be angry for a lifetime. And you are quite old, and you have passed it long ago." The best time to practice, this talent is also very ordinary, it may take five to ten years to feel angry."

Zhou Yuan was in a bad mood for a moment, frowned and cupped his fists and said, "I also ask Master Huang for advice."

"Zhou Yuan, she's scaring you." Lu Ying walked over and said in a slightly flattering tone, "Although you have passed the best time for training, you can still use Qi Training Pills to assist, and it will also have excellent results. "

Zhou Yuan was overjoyed and immediately asked: "Then where is this Qi training pill? Can I buy it with money?"

"Of course you can't buy gold coins, but you can buy wine. Since Mr. Zhou can make wine, if it is really good wine, you can exchange it for spirit stones in Juxian Pavilion. This spirit stone is also the currency of Juxian Pavilion. Necessities for practice.

If Mr. Zhou can get the main material of the Qi-Cultivating Pill, Juling Grass, then I can also help you refine the Qi-Cultivating Pill, which will greatly reduce the cost, which is about a quarter of the price of the Qi-Collecting Pill, and the reward is the cake .

This spirit-gathering grass can be bought in Xianyuan, but only spirit stones are accepted there. "Lu Ying looked at him expectantly.

Zhou Yuan immediately said: "Understood, then tomorrow morning I will bring the good wine from my family's collection over here, and invite a few masters to help taste it together, and see if it can be exchanged for spirit stones."

"No problem, remember to bring some food." Lu Ying said cutely.

"No problem." Zhou Yuan patted his chest, then bid farewell to the two and left.

After Zhou Yuan left, Lu Ying closed the door with an expectant expression on her face. Huang Rong said contemptuously, "I sold you with just one cake. Look at what you did just now."

"Hmph, it's fun if you don't eat it yourself, don't eat it if you have the ability." Lu Ying's provocative eyebrows twitched, and then she hopped back to fiddle with her herbs.

"Disgraceful." Huang Rong stuck out her tongue and followed in.

Seeing the owner sitting on the inner hall and seeing two people coming in, the owner put down the tea bowl and said flatly, "He left?"

"Yes, Hall Master, could Zhou Yuan be sent by the court minister?" Huang Rong expressed her conjecture.

"Yu Mo followed him to see that he sold rice to make money, and now he wants to sell wine. If those people really sent people to monitor, they wouldn't let Zhou Yuan do these unnecessary things. Let's wait and see what happens." The owner didn't have much. He cares about Zhou Yuan's status, but prefers cakes.

"Yes." All the girls responded.

When Zhou Yuan came to shopkeeper Zhu's backyard, a clerk was already waiting at the back door. Seeing Zhou Yuan approaching, the clerk quickly bowed and smiled and said, "Mr. Zhou, you are here. The shopkeeper is already waiting inside. Please follow me."

Zhou Yuan nodded and followed him to the inner hall of the backyard. The shopkeeper had already prepared a table of delicious dishes here, a plate of rice and fried meat, boiled meat, and barbecued meat. However, the condiments for these meats were too simple. Salt, really nothing else.

In Shendu, it seems that he has never heard of condiments. The only condiment is salt, which makes Zhou Yuan helpless, but also secretly happy. The more backward the food culture here, the more beneficial it is to him. bigger.

Walking into the inner hall, there was a middle-aged man in official uniform sitting there, with an easy-going expression, as if he was easy to get along with.

Shopkeeper Zhu greeted him at the door, and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhou, come, let me introduce you. This is Mr. Xing, the parent of Shendufang City."

Zhou Yuan cupped his fists and said with a smile, "I've seen Mr. Xing."

"Yes." Master Xing nodded with a smile.

"This time we have to rely on Mr. Xing to push our wine to the top. Ordinary people can't afford wine. We want to do business with the upper class." Zhu shopkeeper said.

"Thank you, Master Xing. This profit is naturally indispensable to Master Xing." Zhou Yuan said directly about the benefits, which is more effective than any flattery.

Mr. Xing smiled and said: "Hahaha, it's easy to say, Mr. Zhou is really young and promising. It's really rare to master wine brewing technology at such a young age. This time, I will use Mr. Zhou's light to taste this Erguotou."

"It's an honor." Zhou Yuan said with a smile.

The two sat down, and shopkeeper Zhu poured wine for the two of them himself. He was the middleman, and he had to hug Master Xing's legs if he wanted to make money.

After drinking for three rounds, shopkeeper Zhu was already half-drunk at noon, and he was about to drink again when he was sober, and he was already a little drunk after drinking a bowl of wine, but fortunately he was still sober, this time was too important to him, so it was impossible to get down.

Mr. Xing seemed to have drunk wine before. After drinking this bowl of wine, he praised it again and again. Seeing that Zhou Yuan's face remained unchanged, he laughed and said, "Young Master Zhou is worthy of being a wine maker. This bowl of wine of such high quality does not change his face." , the old man already feels swayed."

"I have been nurtured since I was a child, and I am used to it. It makes adults laugh." Zhou Yuan said with a smile.

"Okay, from Mr. Zhou's point of view, is your wine-making method still a family tradition?" Master Xing asked calmly, as if chatting casually after a meal.

Zhou Yuan knew what he meant, and replied casually: "That's right, the family handed down the craftsmanship and made a living from it. Hey, originally our family had its own fixed buyers, but my parents didn't know what happened. I never came back again. The junior came out this time not only to make a living, but also to find the whereabouts of his parents."

"Oh, Mr. Zhou is a filial son, don't worry, I will recommend your wine to a few friends. They are all high-ranking officials in the capital of the gods, with strong backgrounds. As long as Mr. Zhou has enough goods, I will guarantee that you will make a lot of money. "Master Xing smiled, patted Zhou Yuan's hand, with a look of reassurance on my face.

"Thank you Lord Xing, I offer you a toast." Zhou Yuan poured himself the wine and drank it in one gulp.

"Hey, good drinker, young people are awesome, haha." Master Xing laughed.

After eating this meal for an hour, the three of them were full of joy. Because Zhou Yuan wanted to practice martial arts and didn't have time to take care of the goods, he entrusted the shopkeeper Zhu to pay him directly, and then let the shopkeeper sell it, and Lord Xing promoted it.

Naturally his excuse was that he needed to make wine and find his parents, and they accepted that perfectly.

After deliberation, Zhou Yuan sold this box of Erguotou, a total of 12 bottles, to shopkeeper Zhu for 1200 gold. As for how much they sold, that was their business.

Shopkeeper Zhu liked Zhou Yuan's way of doing business very much, and given him a large enough profit margin, he naturally treated Zhou Yuan as an old man.

After accepting the 1200 gold, Zhou Yuan left with a big bag, saying that he was going to purchase materials, and the two personally sent him away, watching him disappear in the alley before going back.

Master Xing left with two bottles of Erguotou, promising to release some tonight.

Shopkeeper Zhu sent him away with a smile, and finally went to the closing meeting.

He was already shaking when he was walking, the proprietress trotted out at this time, supported him personally and said happily: "This time we have really made a fortune, and it is really a blessing for our old Zhu family to meet Mr. Zhou."

"Who says no, you still say I'm long-winded all day long, you see, I didn't chat with Mr. Zhou in the first place, how could I have the opportunity today." Shopkeeper Zhu walked in with a smug look on his face.

"Yes, yes, you are right. How much do you think a bottle of Erguotou is suitable for?" The proprietress is most concerned about this question.

"I have discussed with Mr. Xing. Ordinary wine is about 100 gold a catty in the high-level. This kind of Erguotou is much better than what Mr. Xing has drunk. We negotiated to set a price of 200 gold for early promotion. When the door opens , and then raise the price according to the actual situation.”

Hearing shopkeeper Zhu's words, the two balls of meat on the proprietress's chest trembled with excitement. One bottle can earn 100 gold, and there will be more in the future, which is much faster than selling rice.

"Hey, Mr. Xing, how much do we have to share with Mr. Xing?" The proprietress felt that her flesh had been poached when she thought of sharing.

"Promoting to the top, only Mr. Xing can do it. With my status, I don't even have the qualifications to meet. There is no way to do this. Although Mr. Xing didn't say it explicitly, he has already hinted at it, [-]%." Shopkeeper Zhu was helpless, and he was also heartbroken. , but he is an official, what can he do.

"Fifty percent! Grab it." The proprietress screamed, but soon she could only bear it.

"Hey, what can we do? We just have to fight each other. In our relationship, Mr. Zhou and Mr. Xing are indispensable, but anyone can replace us. We must not be too greedy, otherwise we may not get anything." Zhu shopkeeper said .

"Hmph, I'm just not convinced. If Mr. Zhou doesn't say anything, why should Mr. Xing take half of it? We paid for it, so he just keeps talking and earns so much." The proprietress is really unwilling to face Mr. Xing. Said, also complained to his man.

Shopkeeper Zhu knew his wife, pretended not to hear, let her complain, swayed and sat on the recliner, enjoying the feeling of being in a trance after drinking. much trouble.

It seems that the woman's chanting in the ears can't be heard, and all the beauties appearing in front of her are whispering in the ear, which is beyond words.

What Mr. Zhou said about relieving worries is really sincere and not deceiving.
