I'm the best catcher in martial arts
Chapter 170 Lu Xiaofeng, take the blame
"I heard that the girl is the descendant of the god of wine. I wonder if the wine I collected can be used by the girl?"
Huo Xiu politely poured Zuo Shi a glass of wine.
He has no airs of the richest man in China, nor any pretense, he is very sincere.
Even if you use mind-reading skills to observe his thinking, you can only come to one conclusion in the end - sincerity!
Huo Xiu is a businessman, a businessman who doesn't care about anything except the profits of his shop.
As long as it can bring him profits, no matter whether the person is tall or short, fat or thin, male or female, Buddha or Tao, he will be sincere from the bottom of his heart.
Zuo Shi belongs to this kind of person.
Lu Xiaofeng is Huo Xiu's drinking buddy. He can vent some of his frustration when he is depressed, and can also participate in some calculations, but in most cases, it can only bring emotional value, not direct benefits.
If Shen Lian can give him a pass, it will be very valuable, otherwise he is just trying to please the official.
Ignoring special circumstances and only calculating the value under ordinary conditions, Zuo Shi is the most valuable.
Because she is the daughter of Zuo Boyan, the god of wine.
She is proficient in Zuo Boyan’s wine-making techniques.
Drinks can bring in huge profits.
If Zuo Shi is willing to join his army, Huo Xiu will not mind offering him a high salary.
Huo Xiu even regretted that he was too slow. If he had saved Zuo Shi, he would have opened more than a dozen large wineries by now and earned huge amounts of gold and silver.
There will always be charlatans in this world.
Jianghu people can never live without wine.
Wine is money.
What is this called?
Learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, and you won’t be afraid of time travel!
The fourth natural disaster in the world, the billions of seniors before Shen Lian all made their fortunes by relying on knowledge.
Shen Lian occasionally feels a little embarrassed.
When you have no money, you will only dig for treasures. Instead of using your own knowledge, your seniors are constantly striving to improve themselves.
——It’s so cool!
——Although I occasionally feel guilty for being lazy, the days after lying down are really comfortable!
Winemaking is a discipline that requires a lot of talent.
Not only must you know how to select ingredients, but you must also be able to control temperature and measure time. Your sense of smell and taste must be very sensitive, and it is best to have a stomach that will not get drunk after a thousand cups.
Zuo Shi is not a heavy drinker, but he has inherited the family's wine-making skills at a young age. His talent is naturally top-notch, and his tongue is particularly sensitive and flexible.
When you pick up a wine glass and take a sip, you can tell where the wine was produced, how it was brewed, how long it was stored in the cellar, what kind of people it is suitable for, and what mistakes were made during storage.
Huo Xiu was even aroused and took out the top-quality Dukang, which was hidden in the deepest part of the room. It had been stored in a cellar for 130 years and could be called the king of wine.
Generally speaking, the longer the wine is stored, the more mellow and mellow it will be. However, if it is not stored properly during storage, the aroma of the wine will be lost and the original mellow taste will be lost.
Such is the case with Huo Xiu, the "king of wine".
Very fragrant, but not pure enough.
Very thick, but not long-lasting.
When you drink it, you can feel that this is a top-quality wine, but it is not a top-quality Dukang.
When the wine reaches your throat, you can feel the mellow taste. When it reaches your stomach, the smell of the wine will be 60 to 70% gone, leaving no lingering aftertaste.
Zuo Shi said with a slight disappointment: "This wine was stored very well in the first hundred years, but it was improperly stored twice in the next thirty years, and the taste became worse!"
Huo Xiu gave a thumbs up when he heard this: "As expected of the descendant of the God of Dionysus, his skills are indeed amazing. They are much better than those under my command who claim to be masters."
It certainly doesn't feel good to admit defeat.
But if you admit defeat and can learn the art of brewing and earn huge profits, that will be a great enjoyment.
At least it was enjoyable for Huo Xiu.
Huo Xiu enjoys everything that can make money.
While writing down the key points of storage mentioned by Zuo Shi, he secretly decided that when he returned, he would deal with those who guarded the wine cellar severely and let them remember the lesson!
Due to their improper storage, they not only lost face but also lost a lot of money.
It doesn't matter if you're embarrassed.
Losing money is absolutely not allowed!
Boss Huo never does money-losing business.
For a business, if Huo Xiu can make Huo Xiu pay a huge amount of costs in advance, the benefits will definitely be a hundredfold.
Huo Xiu had done this kind of thing many times.
Countless "hundred times of profits" made Huo Xiu the richest man in the Central Plains, and he established the Qingyi Tower with tens of thousands of members under his command, making him a true underworld hero.
Huo Xiu's money would be enough for him to spend ten lifetimes even if he spent every day drinking, drinking and having fun.
In fact, with the speed at which the shop is making money, as long as no special accident occurs, in ten lifetimes, he may have even more money, and it will be "hard" to lose all his family property.
Not to mention that Huo Xiu doesn't gamble, doesn't like women, doesn't like food, doesn't like mansions and cars, and except for drinking, he doesn't have any luxury.
With his family fortune, even if he drank all day, every day, every night, and died in a wine vat, the expenses would only be a drop in the bucket, and he could make it back in two or three days.
With so much money, it stands to reason that Huo Xiu should retire and enjoy life, and stop messing around.
Huo Xiu didn't think so.
Boss Huo, who seems to be very generous, says that he is not interested in money, but in fact he is planning a hugely profitable business and wants to make a lot of money.
Huo Xiu's real name is "Shangguan Mu", and he is an old minister of the Jinpeng Kingdom, a small and remote country.
The Jinpeng Kingdom is a small country with a weak population, but it is extremely wealthy due to the abundance of gold sand and chalk in its interior. It survives by paying tribute to surrounding powerful countries.
How could it be that a few decades ago, the Central Plains was in chaos, and rivers of blood flowed from the fighting of the heroes, how could they care about the Jinpeng Kingdom?
It would be kind to not steal money!
More than forty years ago, the Jinpeng Kingdom encountered a strong and unkind enemy. They did not want to keep the water flowing, but they wanted to kill the goose to get the eggs, attack with a large army, and destroy the Jinpeng Kingdom.
King Jinpeng knew that he had no chance of winning, so he asked four ministers who cared about his life to take the little prince and flee to the Central Plains. Taking advantage of the chaos in the Central Plains, they might be able to make a comeback.
The treasures of the Jinpeng Kingdom's treasury were divided equally into four parts by the old king, and each of the four ministers who cared about his life had one share.
According to the king's idea, even if someone betrays the prince midway, at least there is still room for maneuver.
The king looked down upon Minister Gu Ming.
The king looked highly at his son.
The four people are:
The uncle Shangguan Jin has been following the little prince;
General Yan Duhe changed his name to Dugu Yihe, joined the Emei Sect and became the head of the Emei Taoist Sect.
Yan Liben, the general manager of the palace, changed his name to Yan Tieshan. He is the most luxurious jeweler in the Central Plains and is extremely wealthy.
Shangguan Mu, the Minister of Household Affairs, changed his name to Huo Xiu, the owner of Qingyi Tower, the richest man in the Central Plains, and a man of extraordinary martial arts.
The head of Emei, a wealthy jewelry merchant, and the richest man in the Central Plains.
These three identities show that the three of them have very strong abilities in martial arts and business. If the three of them join forces to assist the little prince, they will definitely be able to make great achievements.
Why did they fail to achieve success?
Because restoring the country requires a lot of hardships. Just look at Murong Fu and you will understand. The feeling is very difficult.
When I arrived in the Central Plains, I saw the colorful world of the Central Plains, and thought about the bloody turmoil of the country's restoration, coupled with the disputes among the heroes, the bloodshed and the oars, it directly frightened the little prince's courage.
The little prince immediately decided, except for the uncle, you all should stay away from me. I don’t want any money in your hands, and it will be regarded as hard work for you.
It sounds nice, but people who spend money never know how hard it is to make money. The little prince spent a lot of time and money, and finally succeeded in ruining the family fortune.
How can one endure poverty if he is used to living a life of debauchery and lavish spending? If you can't live a hard life, you can only be thick-skinned and ask for money from your former veterans.
Yan Duhe and Yan Liben were outsiders, so the best candidate was naturally Huo Xiu, a member of the royal family who was extremely wealthy.
Huo Xiu gave it once, twice, three times...
After many times, this Pixiu finally couldn't bear it anymore and killed the little prince and Shangguan Jin, and also set up a plan to kill the two old brothers.
On the one hand, they seize the treasures of two people.
On the one hand, clear your past.
Huo Xiu would not carry out the mission himself. He felt that doing so would be like a reckless man and not elegant at all.
He chose to kill with a borrowed knife.
The name of that knife is——Lu Xiaofeng!
He had been friends with Lu Xiaofeng for so many years, spent so much money, and sent so much wine, wasn't it just to be able to borrow Lu Xiaofeng's knife one day?
Although there were disturbances halfway through, and Shen Lian popped up out of nowhere, it seemed to be more complete.
If Shen Lian could be plotted, or someone could borrow someone's sword to kill Shen Lian, and then recruit Zuo Shi under his command, it would be another huge source of wealth.
No no no!
He asked Qingyi House to capture Shen Lian alive in order to fish out Shen Yumen. Although there was no substantial evidence, Huo Xiu had a feeling that Liancheng's treasure was in Shen Yumen's hands.
The gold, silver and jewelry treasured by Emperor Liang Yuan were only much larger than the treasury of Jinpeng Kingdom. There was no need to divide it into four parts and it was not spent carelessly. What a rich asset it would be?
As for the forces behind the Shen brothers...
Isn’t there the best scapegoat here?
If the plan can succeed, even if the entire Tsing Yi Building is abandoned, it will be very worthwhile.
Tsing Yi landlord Lu Xiaofeng?
So pretty!
So pretty!
Thinking of this, Huo Xiu poured a glass of wine for Lu Xiaofeng very enthusiastically. Good friend, you must hold on to these scapegoats. I will burn incense for you if you die!
Not only will I burn incense for you, but I will also burn three thousand paper beauties for you, making you look like a ghost!
The four of them drank with great interest, but they all had different thoughts in their minds. No matter whether they had the same thoughts or not, the mellow taste of the wine was always so strong.
The whole room was filled with the aroma of wine.
Zuo Shi even showed off his bartending skills, mixing different wines according to proportions to turn them into brand new wines, making Lu Xiaofeng call her the goddess of wine.
The wine aroma is very strong.
Floral and body scents are more intense.
The breeze blows, and the fairy music floats.
The room that was originally filled with the smell of alcohol suddenly became filled with fragrance, a fragrance that was more fragrant than the fragrance of flowers.
Blowing from the wind, along with the sound of music, in less than a cup of tea, the world seems to be filled with this wonderful aroma, which makes people deeply intoxicated.
All kinds of flowers floated from the window, and then gently fell to the ground, as if a blanket woven with flowers was spread right outside the door.
A stunningly beautiful woman slowly walked from the door.
She was wearing a pure black soft silk robe, which trailed long on the ground and on the flowers.
There are no other decorations and no other colors.
She just stood quietly on the flowers, and the colorful flowers seemed to suddenly lose their color.
The girl stared lovingly at Lu Xiaofeng, her eyes as clear as the morning dew on the petals, and her voice as soft as the wind ruffling the distant mountains and ponds.
Her smile is mysterious, as mysterious as the long and distant sound of the flute in a quiet night, misty, dreamlike, and elusive.
Shangguan Danfeng!
The daughter of the little prince of Jinpeng Kingdom.
wrong!
In their words, it’s called:
——King Jinpeng and Princess Jinpeng!
Uh... Shen Lian always felt that without those three foreign ministers, the little prince's power alone would be five or six mansions short of the Murong family in Gusu.
At least Murong's military value is quite good, the four retainers are loyal, and there is no financial crisis.
A little girl with big eyes, a very well-behaved look, and a cute expression stood obediently behind the girl in black. Her big eyes were full of liveliness and curiosity.
Shangguan Xueer.
Shangguan Jin's granddaughter.
Shangguan Danfeng's cousin.
A little girl who was mistaken by some people for being the mastermind behind the scenes and the leader of the Azure Dragon because she was too clever.
Shen Lian thought it was unlikely.
This little girl has quite a bit of scheming, but she is by no means a wise man with plans for thousands of miles. She should be similar to Ah Zi, who cannot survive without scheming, so she has to be scheming.
Liu Yuhen, Xiao Qiuyu, and Dugu Fang took the initiative to enter the wooden house without any verbal hints.
Just as they were about to demolish the entire wooden house, Shen Lian suddenly reached out and stopped them: "Breaking and smashing is a serious violation of the law. You three want to go to jail?"
Shangguan Xueer came skipping over and looked at Shen Lian with wide eyes: "I remember that if compensation is sent in time, there is no need to go to jail."
The little girl was followed by a yellow dog. The yellow dog held a bamboo basket in its mouth, with four ingots of gold ingots inside.
Shen Lian touched Shangguan Xueer's head and gave her a brain-destroying blow just like he had taught his junior sister before.
"At such a young age, I don't know how big the world is. I can only buy two jars of wine with this little money, the cheapest two jars of wine."
"What if I want to buy them all?"
"It takes about fifty thousand taels of gold."
Shen Lian looked at Liu Yuhen and the others: "If you can't afford so much money, you'd better go out from wherever you came in, otherwise I can only ask you to go to jail, and that feeling is very uncomfortable. "
Liu Yuhen said coldly: "Will people die in the prison of the Ministry of Punishment? I have always wanted to die!"
Shen Lian said very seriously: "Although I don't want to admit it, it is basically impossible to come out of the Penal Department prison with all your hair and tail."
Zuo Shi added: "When you go in, you may be a human, but when you come out, you are definitely a ghost. That place is hell, and whoever goes there will become a ghost."
Liu Yuhen said sternly: "Very good, I want to see if the prison of the Ministry of Punishment can turn me into a ghost!"
Before he finished speaking, the iron hook stabbed Shen Lian's throat.
Shen Lian gently grabbed it with his left hand, and immediately grabbed Liu Yuhen's wrist, and then smiled.
"Gaba!"
There was only a crisp sound, and Liu Yuhen's arm was violently twisted by Shen Lian. The severe pain caused him to lose strength instantly, and he fell to the ground wailing.
"Why bother?"
"Isn't it good to be a good person?"
"Why are you here?"
Thanks to the book friend The Evil Mirror Hidden Man for the reward.
