Sword God Inn

Chapter 229 273. Wine Auction
Wang Yuan came out with the tray in person, and the diners in the hall were already eagerly waiting.The food that was usually considered delicious was hard to swallow at the moment, and everyone stretched their necks to peek at the kitchen wall behind them.The aroma of wine from the back kitchen made every diner who smelled it couldn't help but spit.

Finally the shopkeeper Wang came out.All eyes were on the three jugs on the tray in his hand. "Is this the fine wine? Only three jugs are too little!" Everyone thought so.

Wang Yuandu went to the middle and put the tray on the table.He cleared his throat and said, "Senior Dionysus brewed the fine wine this time. According to him, it is the best wine he has brewed in his life. Moreover, this wine can refresh people's minds and cleanse their hearts." Speaking of which, Wang Yuan intentionally paused and then looked around at the diners around him. Seeing the hungry wolf-like eyes, Wang Yuan smiled knowingly.He went on to say: "The quantity of this fine wine is limited, and only these three jugs can be auctioned, so it's still the same thing, the one with the highest price will get it. Next, the first jug will be auctioned! The low price is 2000 taels of silver!"

"I'll offer 2000 taels! This wine is mine!" A businessman on the left shouted loudly, expecting to be the first to win.

"Hmph! It's wishful thinking to buy this fine wine for 2000 taels. I'll offer 500 taels! The wine is mine!" the person on the right raised the price.

"I'll give you three thousand!"

"Three thousand three!"

"Three thousand five!"

"5000 taels!" This is a person who came in from the door and shouted loudly.Wang Yuan looked up and saw that it was King Baocheng whom he hadn't seen for a long time.The first pot was called 5000 taels of silver, and everyone didn't raise the price, and they all waited to see how the person who bought the wine would react after drinking it.

Seeing that no one raised the price, Wang Yuan nodded and said, "Brother Ji's wine is yours now."

"Thank you, Brother Wang!" King Baocheng took the jug and sat aside with Xiao Dezi.At this time, Naxi came over with two wine glasses and placed them in front of them. "Huh!" King Baocheng looked at Naxi and saw that he was not from the Central Plains.But before he asked, Naxi had already retreated.

At this time, the whole hall was unusually quiet, and everyone was waiting for King Baocheng to drink.King Baocheng didn't move, Xiao Dezi picked up the jug and filled a glass for him.As soon as the wine was poured out, the aroma of the wine overflowed immediately. King Baocheng couldn't help but sighed when he smelled the aroma of the wine: "It's really extraordinary! Xiao Dezi, pour yourself a glass too! This king is not so stingy, and he always treats his own people. It's very generous." King Baocheng said looking at Xiao Dezi swallowing his saliva desperately.

Xiao Dezi happily poured himself a glass, but he didn't dare to fill up the glass, and stopped when he poured more than half of the glass.At this time, there were still two drops left on the spout, Xiao Dezi carefully dripped them all into the wine glass, and then put the wine pot away.King Baocheng saw his small movements, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.Then he raised his glass and took a sip.It doesn't matter this time, King Baocheng stared, he regretted it at the time, how could Xiao Dezi share a glass of such a good wine!

At that moment, he raised his neck and drank all the wine in the glass.Then he sighed: "It's really good wine! Brother Wang, I want the remaining two jugs too! I'll give you another 1 taels!"

Before Wang Yuan could speak, someone beside him quit. "My friend, you already have one pot to drink, so don't grab the rest. Shopkeeper Wang, give me the second pot. I'll pay you five thousand and one hundred taels." A big red-faced man said.

"I pay 200 taels"

"Five thousand and one hundred taels!"

"6000 taels!"

"7000 taels!"

"8000 taels!" It was the big red-faced man again, it seemed that he was bound to win this time.Wang Yuan thought that no one would increase the price, but suddenly someone shouted in the corner: "I will pay 1 taels!"

Everyone searched for the sound and looked over there, only to see a man wearing a bamboo hat sitting there.His back was facing outside, and he was wearing a bamboo hat so no one knew who he was.

Wang Yuan didn't know who this person was, but the one who came was a guest.Since this person has the highest bid, the second pot is of course his.Joya and Naxi each held the jug and the wine glass, and gently placed them on the mysterious man's table.

There are three jugs of wine in total, and two of them have owners.Facing the second pot of wine being poured out, there was another burst of wine aroma.At this time, the two who did not buy wine all swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and their eyes were fixed on the last jug of wine.

"1 taels! I want the third pot!" The red-faced man hesitated and shouted through clenched teeth.

"1000 taels!" A person at the table next to the red-faced man shouted.As soon as his words came out, the red-faced man glared at him, and shouted, "Tie Liu, I will never end with you!"

"Hmph! Zhao Fei, I'm afraid you won't succeed!"

"You!" The red-faced man named Zhao Fei stood up abruptly, but before he could make a move, Wang Yuan glanced over.When Zhao Fei met Wang Yuan's eyes, he suddenly remembered that he was in the Sword God Inn, and he was secretly glad that he didn't make a move. "Liu Thief will let you go today, and don't let me meet you when you get out of the inn!" After he finished speaking, he stopped eating, turned and left the Sword God Inn.

The thief named Liu saw him leave, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.Then he stared at the third jug in front of Wang Yuan with fiery eyes, thinking that he was about to taste the taste of fine wine, he licked his lips unconsciously.At this time, a voice sounded: "I want this jug of wine for 2 taels."

Wang Yuan looked up, and several people came in from outside the door, among which Lu Yiming was the leader.And it was he who spoke just now.Wang Yuan didn't like Lu Yiming in the first place, and thought he was very hypocritical.Coupled with the coercion of Murong Qiu last time, Wang Yuan hated this person even more.If there is a chance, Wang Yuan even wants to kill him directly.

Seeing that it was him, Wang Yuan pulled his face and said, "Is there anyone else to bid?"

"Brother Wang, you don't need to ask, no matter who bids, I will outbid him. I am determined to get this pot of wine!" Lu Yiming said with a smile.

"That's not necessarily the case!" A voice sounded behind him before he finished speaking. "I want to drink this pot of wine too hard!" The voice fell and two more people walked in from the gate, it was Dugu Ce and his wife Zhang Wanting.

Wang Yuan saw that they rushed over to meet them.Wang Yuan originally planned to go to Dugu Ce's big wedding on February [-], but they had just rushed back from the capital, and the road to Dugu Mountain Villa was far away, so Wang Yuan asked Yin Susu to send a member of Mingjiao to give him a valuable congratulatory gift!

Dugu Ce looked at Wang Yuan and said, "Brother Wang, you are being unkind. I notified you so early. I am so sad that you didn't go to my wedding. No, you must make it up to me today."

"Okay, what did Brother Dugu say today!" Wang Yuan followed up knowing he was wrong.

"It's okay for you two to reminisce about the old days, but the wine must be auctioned off first!" Lu Yiming said with a smile.

Wang Yuan turned his head, bared his teeth at Lu Yiming and said, "I'm sorry! I won't sell this wine anymore! I gave it to Brother Dugu and his wife as a wedding present!"
