Just as one of them was about to turn around and run away, Yin Li lifted his foot and kicked him to the ground.

Yin Li snorted coldly, then looked at Zhang Chu, and said with a smile, "My lord, do you want to kill him?"

Hearing this, the armored man's body softened immediately, almost collapsing to the ground.

At first I thought it was an ordinary merchant, so I found a reason to extort a sum of money.

Looking at it now, this is not a merchant, it is clearly a river and lake person who licks blood at the edge of a knife, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to take people's lives at every turn.

These gangsters don't care whether you are a forbidden soldier or an official of the imperial court. Even if you kill him, you will just walk the rivers and lakes in another place in the end.

In the whole of Lin'an, only the police from the six doors can deal with them.

As for the Forbidden Army, they no longer had the prestige they had in the early years, and they would not go to war for an ordinary warrior like him.

Thinking of this, the man in armor regretted his bowels. How unlucky was he to provoke such a murderer?

"Kill someone, we are serious businessmen."

Zhang Chu glared at Yin Li, then reached out and took off the armor man’s waist plate.

Just when the armored man breathed a sigh of relief, he heard Zhang Chu say, "Qian Daquan, right?"

"Yes, yes..." The man in armor known as Qian Daquan couldn't help but wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Zhang Chu threw the waist card back, then looked at Yin Li and said, "I have written down his identity. If someone comes to the store to make trouble in the future, it must be this person who did it. Then you..."

Qian Daquan froze immediately.

Even Yin Li and Huang Rong were shocked, are you a devil?

Zhang Chu's easy words not only made the soldier of the forbidden army dare not take revenge, but also became the guard of the hot pot restaurant.

Zhang Chu smiled and didn’t speak.

As a native of Lin'an, he understood the current situation of the Imperial Army.

Now the army of the Song Dynasty, the imperial army is no longer the main force, replaced by the garrison troops in various places.

This group of people can only bully ordinary people now, let alone high-ranking officials, even ordinary people in the world dare not provoke them.

What's more, although Yin Li's martial arts is not very high, in the eyes of ordinary people, he is already considered a master.

"This, young master, can I go?" Qian Daquan said cautiously.

Zhang Chu nodded first, and then said slowly: "Yes, but if you hurt the guy in our shop, you have to pay for the soup and medicine, right?"

"..."

Chapter 15 Distilled Wine

After this incident, Huang Rong had a new impression of Zhang Chu.

He is ruthless, black-bellied, and thick-skinned.

The guy in the store didn't suffer any injuries at all, so what's the use of soup and medicine?

Sure enough, almost all of the more than a dozen coins from the extortion went into Zhang Chu’s pocket in the end, so he gave some copper coins to the clerk.

Dai Qisi, who was watching for a long time, waited until the matter was over, and then couldn't help but said: "Young Master Zhang, you won't provoke the people from the six doors?"

Zhang Chu smiled slightly and said, "Do you think people from six doors are idle? And the four famous arresters are jealous, how could they stand up for such a person?"

Only then did Daikis feel relieved.

She was not worried about what six doors would do to them, but worried about getting Zhang Chu into trouble.

If Zhang Chu is upset and she lives in seclusion in another place, she will lose a big backer.

With her martial arts, she can't even defeat the four famous arresters of the six sects, let alone the masters of the Persian Mingjiao headquarters.

…………

night.

After some stocktaking, Huang Rong showed an excited expression on her face, and said, "Master Zhang, I earned eight taels of silver today."

Zhang Chu said casually: “You’ve done a good job, let’s keep working hard.”

Seeing his perfunctory attitude, Huang Rong said a little angrily, "You can earn [-] taels of silver at the beginning of the business, which is already a lot, okay?"

Zhang Chu suddenly said: "How is the wine sold?"

Huang Rong flipped through the ledger and said, "The best seller is milk tea, followed by herbal tea. The wine in the store doesn't sell much."

Zhang Chu nodded and said: “Our wine is much more expensive than outside, they would rather choose to go a few steps outside to buy wine.”

Huang Rong rolled her eyes and said, "Master Zhang, do you want to refuse to bring your own drinks?"

"never mind."

Zhang Chu waved his hand and said with a smile: "This is the second, the most important thing is to find a treasure in our store."

"The treasure of the store?" Huang Rong was startled.

Zhang Chu didn’t explain, but yawned and said, “Let’s go, go back to sleep first.”

…………

The next morning, when Huang Rong was about to go out to the store, she found Zhang Chu was tinkering with something with a jar.

"Master Zhang, what are you doing?" Huang Rong couldn't help asking.

"Brewing wine." Zhang Chu said casually.

"Wine?"

Huang Rong was a little surprised. Wine is sold everywhere in the streets and alleys, so why do you need to brew it yourself?

"It's called distilled wine, and you can't buy it outside." Zhang Chu laughed as if seeing Huang Rong's doubts.

Huang Rong was confused, but he hurried to the store, and didn't have time to investigate further, so he shook his head and turned to leave.

After a busy day, Huang Rong just returned to the yard when she smelled a strong aroma of wine.

"What kind of wine is this? Why does it have such a fragrance?" Huang Rong was surprised.

Walking into the hall, Huang Rong happened to see Dai Qisi carefully tasting the wine with a wine glass in her hand.

As soon as she took a sip, Dai Qisi frowned.

Huang Rong couldn't help laughing and said, "Mr. Zhang, is this the wine you brewed? Isn't it too bad?"

Dai Qisi shook her head and said, "It's not that it tastes bad, but it's too strong."

"Lie?" Huang Rong was taken aback.

Although her father, Huang Yaoshi, was not an alcoholic, he drank occasionally.

So Huang Rong was no stranger to wine.

At this time, Zhang Chu handed her a cup and said, "Miss Feng, come and have a taste."

Huang Rong curiously took the wine glass, then took a sip.

Then she frowned, then stuck out her tongue and said, "It's so strong, what kind of wine is this?"

"It's called distilled wine, and the alcohol content is much higher than the alcohol you drink." Zhang Chu explained.

Huang Rong didn't understand what degree was, but she didn't delve into it.

She couldn't help asking: "Mr. Zhang, could it be that this is the treasure of the shop you said?"

"Not bad." Zhang Chu said with a smile.

Huang Rong commented: "Although this wine is strong, it has a long aftertaste and an endless aftertaste. Many people should like it."

Zhang Chu said with a smile: "in this case, the work of brewing wine will be handed over to you in the future."

"..."

Huang Rong felt a little helpless, but there was nothing she could do, who made her the shopkeeper of the hotpot restaurant.

After drinking a glass of wine, at this time Dai Qisi's pretty face had a blush, as if stained with a layer of rouge.

She put down the wine glass and said, "Master Zhang, does this wine have a name?"

Hearing this, Zhang Chu suddenly fell into deep thought.

Naming is a relatively important matter, and it cannot be sloppy.

The names of fine wines these days mostly focus on a literary art, such as Huadiao and Nv'erhong.

If you take Erguotou, you will lose your compulsion in an instant.

Zhang Chu pondered for a moment, and suddenly thought of a suitable name, which came from a certain online novel in his previous life.

"Let's call it Angelica." Zhang Chu said with a smile.

Hearing this name, both Dai Qisi and Huang Rong were puzzled.

Angelica is the name of a medicinal material, but this is not medicinal wine.

Zhang Chu read leisurely: "it's okay to suffer in life, as long as it's good for a loved one to return home."

Hearing this sentence, the eyes of the two people suddenly lit up.

It has a story, connotation, and artistic conception. This name is good!

These days, most people in the Song Dynasty drank fermented wine, such as rice wine and yellow rice wine.

Some high-ranking officials and dignitaries occasionally drink fine wine such as wine.

These wines generally have a low alcohol content, which is why Li Bai's "will drink three hundred cups at a time".

When Zhang Chu's self-made angelica wine was placed in the store, it quickly caused quite a stir.

People who are not good at drinking will feel that this kind of wine is too strong, while those who like to drink, especially some gangsters, will only find it extremely refreshing.

Moreover, there was a poem pasted on the outside of the wine jar - life should be miserable, as long as it is good for a loved one to return home.

Many scholars who didn't like hot pot originally came to this 'Haidilao' hot pot restaurant on purpose.

Whether the hot pot is good or not, and whether the wine is good or not, these are secondary, the key is to pay attention to elegance!

The business of the hot pot restaurant continued to boom, and soon it gained a lot of fame in Lin'an City.

And this hot pot restaurant not only has novel and delicious food, but also the service attitude of the guys is very good.

Some workers at the docks are usually at the bottom of society, where have they ever enjoyed such treatment?

Usually when they go to restaurants to eat, it would be nice if the waiter in the shop didn't look at them with supercilious eyes.

It's a pity that the price of this hot pot restaurant is on the high side, and ordinary workers can only come to the store once in a while to consume.

Even so, the business of the hot pot restaurant is booming.

Especially during the meal time, not only are there no empty seats, but there are also many diners queuing up at the door.

What is commendable is that the store also specially arranged stools, chairs and snacks for diners waiting outside.

This kind of operation directly attracted many restaurants and restaurants in Lin'an City to follow suit.

…………

"Mr. Duan, the wharf is in front of you. After a few more days of boating, you can reach the Gusu Murong family in Yanziwu."

"I'm hungry, I want to eat."

"I still have some dry food here..."

"I don't eat dry food, I want to drink."

"you……"

"Great monk, there is a restaurant in front, let's go there quickly."

In the hot pot restaurant, a strange combination suddenly walked in, which attracted the attention of many diners.

Chapter 16 The Weird Situation

The first person who came in was a young man with a face like a crown of jade, handsome and extraordinary.

And behind him is a monk, wearing a bright yellow monk robe. Although the clothes are simple, his face is full of spirits, and there is a faint solemn and precious appearance, which is admirable.
