"Yo, the young master is here!"

"Master."

"Master, why are you free today?"

As soon as Nan Mingxuan stepped into the workshop, he was warmly welcomed by the hired workers. Obviously, he often walked in the workshop on weekdays, and he was familiar with these hired workers.But Nan Mingxuan paused, looked around and roughly counted the number of people, and frowned slightly.

"What about the rest?"

It is now the end of May, and Gaoyi City, located in the south of Suining Kingdom, has almost entered the summer. In this season, if the employees have no work, they will gather in the courtyard at the center of the workshop to chat, but today they gathered in this courtyard The number of employees in the village is less than half of the usual number, and they are all elderly, and there are a dozen young people who are the sons or grandsons of these old people.

Nan Qingxiao and Luo Shushi, who were following Nan Mingxuan, knew what the problem was when they heard this. They looked around and frowned in dissatisfaction.But Nan Qingxiao still feels a little lucky. The rest of them, although they are older, are all old wine masters who have brewed wine all their lives. They have rich experience and strong skills, although they may occasionally have a bad temper.

Listening to Nan Mingxuan's question, the hired workers looked at me and looked at you, most of them shook their heads and sighed, and couldn't bear to tell the young master the truth.

In fact, Nan Mingxuan also guessed the general idea, what he wanted to ask was only the details: "When did they leave? Did they all go to the cashier to settle their wages?"

"Most of them left after the master left, and the wages were settled. How could those monkey cubs leave their wages? Alas, there are only us old men left. We have worked with the master for a lifetime, and we are reluctant to leave. What's more, after this is gone, no one wants us."

"Yeah yeah."

"Oh... I don't know what to do from now on..."

"My grandson is only this old..."

"I won't fire you." There were only about thirty people in the yard, but they couldn't hold back a single sentence. The noise was so noisy that it caused headaches. Uncle Luo and Nan Qingxiao looked at each other, and gave him the first sentence of the day. promise.

Sure enough, as soon as the promise was uttered, the yard fell silent instantly. Almost all the hired workers looked at Uncle Luo in surprise, and then turned to Nan Mingxuan in confusion.

"Let me introduce to you, this is our new owner, Mr. Luo."

After listening to Nan Mingxuan's introduction, everyone turned their attention to Uncle Luo again.This is their new owner?Just the son of the pirate chief?This is clearly still a child!And the head of the pirates came to make wine, can this work?

With just a glance, Uncle Luo could more or less see what these people were thinking.Facing everyone's suspicion, Uncle Luo didn't feel unhappy.Doubt is right, if he saw a [-]-year-old person who doesn't understand wine come to take over the brewery, he would also be suspicious.

"My Uncle Luo didn't know much about wine, but he wanted to make something famous, so if our workshop wants to make a comeback, the help of your seniors is indispensable. I implore you all to do your best for our workshop. Naturally, I won't let Seniors, let’s set a goal, if in the wine competition on August [-]th, we make wine that can win the top three, I promise to give you three times the wages, if you fail, in the future , you are the owners of this workshop and our workshop is at the end, I will give you twice the wages as compensation, do you think it is feasible?" If you want to catch big fish, you have to dare to put a long line and use good bait, Uncle Luo didn't count on it He can make a profit in the first year, but at least he needs to recruit talents. In the brewing industry, experience is very important, and the experience of an old brewer is much more useful than the theory of a young man.

After Uncle Luo finished speaking, he was not in a hurry to reply, touched Nan Qingxiao's arm, and the two of them went to visit the workshop.Nan Mingxuan looked left and right, and took Nan Mingyue to visit the workshop together.

"Mr. Luo, this is the place where the koji is stored." Nan Mingxuan pushed open the door of a warehouse, and led Nan Qingxiao and Luo Shushi in.

There are rows of wooden shelves in this warehouse. Obviously, the finished wine koji should be stored on this wooden shelf, but now, the wooden shelf is almost empty, and the only few pieces of wine koji are preserved. Trendy.

"As expected, there are none left." Nan Qingxiao looked at the empty warehouse and sighed.

"Can't we do it now? It only takes one month to make music!" There are still two and a half months until August [-]th.

"It's not impossible, it's just that the wine is not full-bodied enough, so there must be no chance of winning in the wine competition." Nan Qingxiao frowned.

Indeed, they want to brew wine that can participate in the wine competition, and the craftsmanship must not be good.

"There is no other way? Go to another place to buy?"

This time, it was Nan Mingxuan who shook his head and rejected Luo Shushi's proposal: "Every family's method of making koji is somewhat different, and each family regards this difference as their own secret formula, and no one will sell their own koji to others .” The competition between them started from the first process.

"There is no way." I just don't know if Nan Mingxuan can do it.

"What is it?" Since losing to Nan Qingxiao in the wine fight last time, Nan Mingxuan no longer thought that Nan Qingxiao was the kind of person who didn't understand wine at all, but he didn't know how much Nan Qingxiao knew.

"Innovation." Nan Qingxiao looked directly at Nan Mingxuan, "Create a wine that is different from all existing wines, whether it is made of materials or the production process, as long as the final product is unique enough, it can win the wine competition. Show off."

"Innovation? How to innovate?" Nan Mingxuan blinked, confused.

"Why do you ask me? You are the heir cultivated by your father, why? Can't you even do this?" Nan Qingxiao smiled brightly.

"Who, who said I can't do it!" Why is this Nan Qingxiao so annoying?Every sentence is boring to listen to!

"In this case, third master, let's collect the grain first. After receiving the grain, arrange for them to prepare distiller's koji. It doesn't need to be much. The most important thing is the quality. We only have one and a half months to make koji. We can make as much as we can." If Uncle Luo wanted to bring The workshop has made a name for itself, and the wine competition on August [-]th must not be missed. If you miss it, it is equivalent to giving up the qualification to provide tribute wine for the court during the Spring Festival, Shangyuan Festival and Spring Festival, and then wait until August [-]th next year. Five wine competition, this loss is not just a little bit.

"Us?" Uncle Luo raised his brows slightly, and there was an indistinct smile in his tone.

Nan Qingxiao was taken aback for a moment, then pouted.Didn't he take Mr. Luo's affairs as his own? Otherwise, how could he talk so much?

Nan Mingyue wandered around in the warehouse for a long time, but found nothing interesting, so she went back to Nan Mingxuan, but the timing just happened to catch up with Uncle Luo and Nan Qingxiao's eyebrows, Nan Mingyue looked left and right Look, blink, then frown and squish.

"Master Luo, why are you looking at Nan Qingxiao?"

Nan Mingyue's surprise made Luo Shushi, Nan Qingxiao and Nan Mingxuan all stunned. When they recovered, Luo Shushi tilted his head and looked Nan Qingxiao up and down.Nan Qingxiao's face was embarrassed, with a dumbfounding expression on her face, what does it mean to be attracted to it?They are just old friends.Even Nan Mingxuan helped his forehead helplessly.You say you can see it when you see it, can't you just silently watch and gossip?Why do you have to say it?What can his sister do if she is so stupid?

"Where do you like it? From head to toe, from the inside to the outside." Uncle Luo replied very seriously after looking at it, and nodded to himself after speaking, as if he was very satisfied with the conclusion he came to.

Among the four people, only Nan Qingxiao was stunned, and when she turned her head to look at Uncle Luo in disbelief, "Mr. Luo, are you joking?"

"I seem to be joking?" Uncle Luo frowned, Nan Qingxiao was so surprised that Uncle Luo was also surprised, "Why? I don't know?" He was so obvious, Qingxiao couldn't really not notice ?

"No, I don't know..." Nan Qingxiao blinked.It turns out that Uncle Luo's non-actions are because he wants to pursue him, so he is showing his favor?If he doesn't tell, who knows!

"It's not too late to know now." Uncle Luo pursed his lips, a little annoyed.Just a friend, would it be worthwhile for him to let go of the Luo family's business and come here?

"Since, when did it start?" Recalling the short time spent together in childhood, adolescence and adulthood, Nan Qingxiao couldn't find any clues.

"Six years ago." Originally, he was just looking for an old childhood friend, but the meeting six years ago, when Uncle Luo recognized Nan Qingxiao in the crowd, he realized what he wanted, and maybe it was at that time Nan Qingxiao made him fall in love at first sight. In short, from then until now, six years later, Luo Shushi's heart has never changed.

"Six, six years?" Nan Qingxiao was dumbfounded.Mr. Luo is really Mr. Luo. There has been no news of him in the past six years. Mr. Luo can still sit firmly in Fengyang City and manage the Luo family's business in an orderly manner. What kind of calm demeanor is this?Nan Qingxiao couldn't understand it at all.

"Brother, did I say something unnecessary?" Nan Mingyue tugged at Nan Mingxuan's sleeve, very puzzled.

"Which sentence you said is not redundant?" Nan Mingxuan gave Nan Mingyue a sideways look.Doesn't she like Uncle Luo?Why are you still so careless?Do not remind those who should be reminded, and do not work hard when they should work hard.

"How can I!" Nan Mingyue stared, "Then what should I do now?"

"What should I do?" Nan Mingxuan looked at his younger sister who was not intelligent enough.

"Then Luo Sanye likes Nan Qingxiao, I like Luo Sanye, what should I do?"

"Who knows what you will do! Find a way to go!" Really, I should let my mother take the girl who is in the way away, and I can't help you at all.

"Hmm... Are you my brother?" Nan Mingyue frowned and looked at Nan Mingxuan, looking a little unhappy.

"Nan Qingxiao is also your brother, ask him for help!"

"He's not!" Nan Mingyue wrinkled her nose and glanced at Nan Qingxiao in disgust.

Nan Qingxiao secretly sighed.Is the Nan family all like Nanfeng?He heard it all.
