Chapter 7 Young People
The lights in Handan City were dancing at night, and the aroma of wine inside and outside the wine shop was strong, but the atmosphere was obviously stagnant and tense.

Lu Buwei and Ying Yiren, who had just come from the second floor of the wine shop to discuss how to escape from the Zhao Kingdom, bumped into the two most powerful and powerful people in the Zhao Kingdom.

Jiang Taiyi also looked at these people with a smile in his eyes.

Lian Po had obviously just been replaced on the Changping battlefield where he fought against the Qin army. The look he looked at Ying Yiren was completely cold.

But obviously, Guo Kai and Gongzi Yan didn't think so.

Especially Guo Kai, a sycophantic minister. After he saw Ying Yiren, he glanced at Lian Po again, seemed to think of something, and said:

"I said, why did the old general stop at this wine shop for no reason? It turns out that there are princes and grandsons of the Qin State waiting for you in the wine shop. They all heard that the old general might have something personal with the Qin State, so he refused to fight on the Changping battlefield. , now it seems that it is not groundless.”

Lian Po's face was dark, and he just glanced at Guo Kai and said, "I don't know that Qin's young master Yiren is here. He's just drinking."

After saying that, he glanced at Ying Yiren, whose face was obviously panicked. He felt slightly suspicious in his heart, but didn't think much about it. He just said to Jiang Taiyi and Shopkeeper Gai at the counter:

"Bring me a jar of your fragrant wine that fills the room."

Shopkeeper Gai said hurriedly: "Old General, wait a moment, I'll bring it right away."

At this time, Young Master Yan on the carriage had already been seduced by the smell of wine, and said calmly: "I will also prepare ten jars of wine to take away with you."

Inside the restaurant.

Some people couldn't help but look up at Shopkeeper Gai, wanting to see Shopkeeper Gai's reaction.

It seems like your store just said this not long ago...

Only one jar of wine is sold every day.

Now they wanted to see if they still behaved like this in front of such distinguished figures as princes, nobles, and battlefield marshals.

There were obviously some beads of sweat on Shopkeeper Gai's face.

Indeed, he had just said that he would only sell one jar of wine per day, but now, was he going to offend the current royal prince and the old general Lian Po?

When Guo Kai saw that shopkeeper Gai didn't move, he sneered and said, "Are you a dog-eared person? I didn't hear the young master asking for ten jars of wine. Why don't you go quickly?"

Shopkeeper Gai sighed in his heart.

Faced with the pressure of the princes and nobles, he had to bow his head. He could only break his promise and get slapped in the face. So he was embarrassed and did not dare to look at the drinkers in the shop. He lowered his head and prepared to move the wine.

Unexpectedly, another palm came from the body.

Hold him down.

It was Jiang Taiyi, with a gentle but determined voice.

"I'm sorry, our store has just established a rule. The wine you want can only be sold for a jar of ten kilograms a day. One kilogram has been sold just now. Now there are only nine kilograms left in the jar. Today we will only sell If there are too many of these, we won’t sell them.”

Shopkeeper Gai looked at his boss next to him in disbelief.

Everyone in the wine shop also looked at the young owner of the wine shop in white clothes in disbelief. He stood on the counter casually and put his hand on the wrist of the shopkeeper Gai who was about to drink. He didn't even reply. At that time, he didn't even look at the two noble people outside the store, he just smiled and flipped through the ledgers on the counter.

Guo Kai suddenly became furious and shouted coldly: "Do you know what you are talking about? The prince of the royal family wants to buy your wine, which is a blessing for your shabby shop. You don't care about the honor, how dare you not sell it?!"

Unexpectedly, the young boss in white just smiled and turned his head to look at Guo Kai, mainly at Young Master Yan behind Guo Kai, and said:

"This is the rule of our store. We only sell a jar of ten kilograms of wine every day. If there is too much, we will not sell it. If it is sold out, we will not sell it."

After saying this, he looked at the account book again and said leisurely:

"Since the rules have been set, let alone the young master outside the store, even if the king of the Seven Kingdoms comes here and doesn't sell it, he still won't sell it."

"Arrogant! Discourteous! Bold!"

Guo Kai said coldly:
"Come here, destroy this store quickly!"

Shopkeeper Gai's mind was buzzing. He had no idea that his boss was so domineering and that the rules he casually set were so unchangeable that he would not change them even when facing the royal family.

Even Lu Buwei and Ying Yiren who were not far away were shocked.Lu Buwei felt numb in his heart:
"Brother Jiang, doesn't he know that even if we are in business, no matter how rich we are, how can we be qualified to fight against the noble officials, let alone the more noble royal family?"

It was because he had experienced the helplessness of being a businessman all his life that no matter how rich or wealthy he was, he was still nothing in the eyes of the powerful nobles, so he angrily asked for an opportunity to become a high-ranking official.

Not to mention.

He and Ying Yiren are now preparing to discuss escaping from the Zhao Kingdom. At this time, offending the Zhao royal family is not taking the initiative to touch the sword.

This Brother Jiang...

Clang!

The masters of military service following Young Master Yan were already preparing to rush into the wine shop.

Ying Yiren's legs were shaking.

Just when Lu Buwei was about to step forward to beg for mercy and ask Jiang Taiyi to bow his head.

"Wait a minute!"

Lian Po clasped his hands behind his back, as if the mountain was as heavy as a mountain. As he stood there, that old voice exploded like a heavy hammer, the sound rolling, carrying his condensed anger.

A master's true energy or the sway of the river makes the old general's clothes dance without any wind:

"This is the capital city of Handan. The city is filled with the king's people, and the young master has the status of a royal nobleman. Guo Kai, as the young master's personal attendant, you dare to let the young master do such an unkind thing. The noble royal prince actually has to do something because of a trivial matter. , then they destroyed the common people’s wine shop. If word spreads out, how will the people of the world view our country of Zhao and the royal bloodline of our country of Zhao? Could it be that I, the young master of the country of Zhao, am one of those local ruffians?"

Guo Kai was shocked and angry, and quickly looked at Gongzi Yan.

The young man in the car already had a trembling face and trembling lips.

Lian Po put his hands behind his hands and said in a deep voice: "Young Master, Guo Kaishi by your side tempted the young master to do unethical and unkind things. This is really a serious crime. Please punish the young master severely after he returns."

"Lian Po, you!" Guo Kai gritted his teeth.

"Okay." Young Master Yan scolded Guo Kai in a cold voice, then took a deep look at Lian Po and said, "The old general really has my best interests at heart."

Lian Po's old face was as calm as water: "Old minister, I only care about the country of Zhao."

"Old General Lian is indeed a loyal minister and has a good heart."

After Gongzi Yan finished speaking, he said calmly through the curtains of the hitchhiker:

"No more wine, let's go."

Guo Kai wanted to say more, but he could only have the courage to speak loudly to Lian Po when he was by Young Master Yan's side. He was very convinced in his heart that if he were not by Young Master Yan's side, Lian Po, an old man with the strength of a master, would definitely dare to He grabbed the collar of his neck and threw himself out. He just said a harsh word and followed Gongzi Yan in dejection.

After Gongzi Yan's carriage and horse left.

Lu Buwei and Ying Yiren both breathed a sigh of relief.

Shopkeeper Gai hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Thank you, General. If the General wants more wine, the wine sold today is less than ten kilograms per jar, but there are nine kilograms. All of it has been given to the Old General."

Lian Po stretched out his hand, glanced at the white-clothed shopkeeper one more time, then looked at Ying Yiren, and said casually: "Since we only sell ten catties a day, if I sell them all, what will the others do? I will only bring two catties." Let’s go.”

"Okay, okay." Shopkeeper Gai immediately went to fill two small jars of Moutai.

Lian Po, who was carrying two jars of wine, looked at Ying Yiren and said, "Master Qin, why are you in this wine shop today?"

Ying Yiren was very nervous.

Can he say that he wants to discuss escaping from Zhao State?
Jiang Taiyi on the counter spoke, smiled faintly, and said: "Master Ying and Brother Lu are my friends, but they just come to my place to get together."

When Lian Po heard this, he didn't ask any more questions. He just chuckled at Jiang Taiyi and said, "Young man, you are too sharp. It's not good."

With that said, he picked up two jars of wine and drove away in a car.

Jiang Taiyi looked at the account books and was disappointed when he heard the words "young man" mentioned by Lian Po before leaving.
