Outside the imperial court, it was another scene.
Chang 'an City, West City.
"Have you heard? Yesterday, the Drunken Immortal Restaurant sold Immortal Drunken Wine. They said they would refund you if you didn't get drunk after two liters."
"I have. What happened after that? Did the Drunken Immortal Restaurant lose a lot of money yesterday? "
"Nonsense, it is said that the people who went to challenge the Drunken Immortal Restaurant yesterday were all defeated. Most of them got drunk before they finished one liter. One of them drank the most, but he only drank one liter and a half before he couldn't hold on anymore. "
"Ah? This wine is so strong? Then who drank the most? "
"Haha, it was Wei Xuancheng, the minister of the imperial court."
"Ah? Isn't Wei Xuancheng the master brewer of our imperial court? How could he get drunk? "
"Hey, that's nothing. What's more interesting is that Wei Xuancheng held someone's hand after he got drunk and insisted on giving him money. Hey, that's right, that's the man. Hey, man, you're here today too? "
"Yes, the Drunken Immortal Restaurant's Immortal Drunken Wine is really an immortal brew. The braised pork and braised meatballs are also rare delicacies in the world. I couldn't forget them after tasting them yesterday. Later, I heard that the Drunken Immortal Restaurant also has a kind of wine called Gentle Village, which is specially brewed for people who can't drink. So I brought my wife here today to try it."
This man was the middle-aged man whom Wei Zheng mistook for Fang Xuanling yesterday and insisted on giving him money.
"Haha, you couple are really affectionate! But man, is the Drunken Immortal Restaurant's Immortal Drunken Wine really that good? "
The middle-aged man nodded without hesitation and said, "Of course, but this wine is very easy to get drunk and shouldn't be overdosed. Not only that, their new dishes are also unique delicacies in our Tang Empire. They are very delicious. "
"Now that you mention it, I'm a little greedy. I have to go in and try it today!"
"Hey, man, why didn't you take the money that Wei Xuancheng gave you yesterday?"
Another young man next to him teased.
The middle-aged man: …
"Hahaha …"
The surrounding crowd suddenly burst into laughter.
…
"Young Master, the new wine and dishes are too popular. After deducting the cost, just the new wine and dishes alone made a profit of more than 400 strings of coins yesterday. It's really amazing."
Within a private room in the Immortal Indulgence Inn, Manager Liu reported to Li Zexuan with extreme excitement.
Now that the Drunken Immortal Restaurant had come back from the dead and made a shocking reversal, apart from Li Zexuan, the most excited person was Manager Liu.
Li Zexuan nodded his head calmly. The Drunken Immortal and the pork dishes were just released yesterday. Not many people knew about them yet. The profits would definitely get bigger and bigger later on. He casually agreed and said,
"Mm, that's good. Uncle Liu, from now on, the affairs of the Drunken Immortal Inn will depend on you to manage. I will no longer interfere in the affairs of the Drunken Immortal Inn. "
Today, he brought Lan 'er to try the new dishes. The little girl was eating until her mouth was full of oil and had no time to pay attention to him.
When Manager Liu heard that Li Zexuan didn't intend to interfere in the affairs of the Drunken Immortal Inn, he was shocked. He had indeed become dependent on Li Zexuan. Whenever there was a problem in the Drunken Immortal Inn, the first person he thought of was Li Zexuan.
"Young Master, this … why is this?"
Li Zexuan did have his reasons for doing this. First, he had other things to do. How could he stay in the Drunken Immortal Inn every day? Second, he found that Manager Liu and Wang Erhu had become dependent on him. When they encountered problems, they didn't want to solve it themselves. Instead, they wanted him to help them. How could this be? A qualified leader would never do everything personally.
"Uncle Liu, I still have other things to do. In the future, you should encourage Erhu and the others to invent new dishes. You can't just sit there and do nothing. If the Drunken Immortal Inn wants to develop healthily, it must constantly innovate. You can't just rely on me. "
Li Zexuan said solemnly.
When Manager Liu heard this, he knew that Li Zexuan had made up his mind. He also felt that Li Zexuan's words were reasonable. It was indeed a bit outrageous for a lord to spend all his time in a restaurant researching food and drink.
"Young Master is right. Don't worry, Young Master, I, Old Liu, will definitely take good care of the Drunken Immortal Inn according to your wishes. "
Li Zexuan nodded slightly and continued eating with Lan 'er.
… …
Azure Dragon Ward.
Within the courtyard of the mansion.
"Tsk tsk, this Drunken Immortal truly lives up to its reputation. It looks like we'll have to hurry up and discuss cooperation with Li Zexuan."
The white-clothed young master held a cup of wine and carefully savored the taste.
"Young master, the Drunken Immortal Inn's new wine and dishes are now hard to come by. I'm afraid that the second young master won't be able to sit still at House Yunxi any longer."
The white-clothed young master couldn't help but smile. He said, "Yes, I'm afraid my second younger brother is in a hurry right now! We'll go meet this Li Zexuan tomorrow. It'll be best if we can cooperate. "
Lu Yun couldn't help but ask, "Young master, both the scooter and the Drunken Immortal are extremely popular in Chang 'an right now. Why would Li Zexuan be willing to cooperate with us?"
The white-clothed young master shook his head and said with a smile, "You don't understand. The Li family has risen too quickly. Their foundation naturally can't compare to our thousand-year-old families. The scooter and the Drunken Immortal are only popular in Chang 'an. They might not be popular in other places. If Li Zexuan cooperates with me, there will only be benefits for him. It's a win-win situation for both of us. "
Lu Yun suddenly understood and nodded. At this moment, a woman in white clothes suddenly floated down from behind Lu Yun. Yes, it was Liao. This woman's skin was whiter than snow and her figure was slender. She suddenly appeared behind Lu Yun without making a sound. She directly placed her sword and its scabbard on Lu Yun's neck and coldly said,
"Lu Yun, you're getting bolder now. Why does the young master need to explain to you what he wants to do?"
Lu Yun's legs trembled from the cold scabbard and the bone-chilling voice. He quickly begged for mercy, "Miss Yuyao, please spare my life. This little one definitely didn't mean that!"
The white-clothed young master also smiled and said, "Lu Yun was just asking casually. Don't scare him, Yao 'er."
The woman named Yuyao patted Lu Yun's shoulder with the scabbard when she heard this. She then put away her sword and coldly snorted, "Next time, just do whatever the young master asks you to do. If you talk so much nonsense again, be careful that I'll cut off your tongue. Scram!"
Lu Yun quickly bowed to the white-clothed young master and then to Yuyao as he apologized, "This little one won't dare to ask anymore next time. This little one will take his leave now. This little one will take his leave now."
Lu Yun wiped the cold sweat off his forehead and hurriedly retreated.
"Yao 'er, why are you here?"
The white-clothed young master smiled and shook his head. When he saw that Lu Yun had already retreated, he asked.
Yuyao hurriedly replied respectfully, "Replying to the young master, Yuyao received news a few days ago that the second young master has recently recruited a group of jianghu experts. Yuyao is afraid that the second young master will harm the young master in this trial, so Yuyao specially came to protect the young master's safety."
The white-clothed young master smiled indifferently and said, "Yao 'er, you're overthinking things. Although my second brother and I have our conflicts, it's far from the point of fighting each other. He probably has other uses for the jianghu experts. You should return to the clan. Otherwise, the elders will blame you for leaving your post without permission."
Yuyao frowned and firmly shook her head. "The second young master's current intentions are unclear. Yuyao won't let the young master take the risk alone. Yuyao will follow the young master wherever he goes and will never leave!"
After saying that, she directly went to the white-clothed young master's side and stood there like a sword without moving. Her delicate and pretty face was filled with determination and stubbornness.
The white-clothed young master raised his head and looked at her. He knew that he couldn't persuade her anymore, so he stood up and gently stroked Yuyao's beautiful face. He smiled helplessly and said,
"It's been so many years, why are you still so stubborn? Since you insist on following me, then follow me. I'll send a letter to my father later and tell him that I've transferred you over to do some errands."
Yuyao looked at the white-clothed young master's hand that was inches away from her and a faint blush flashed across her cold face. When she heard that the young master had finally agreed to let her follow him, a smile finally appeared on her face. She said, "Thank you, young master!"
Her voice carried a trace of joy and was clearly not as cold as before.
The white-clothed young master shook his head and smiled. "You, ah. This young master really doesn't know what to do with you. Since that's the case, Yao 'er, you can stay here. Tomorrow, you can come with me to meet that Li Zexuan."
Yuyao softly agreed and asked, "If the young master wants to cooperate with that Li Zexuan, Yuyao can just go and capture him. Why bother the young master to personally make a trip? If that Li Zexuan dares to not agree to cooperate, I'll kill him! "
The white-clothed young master unhappily flicked Yuyao's forehead and said, "Why do you only know how to fight and kill? This is Chang 'an. In the future, don't mess around without my orders! Moreover, this matter can only be cooperated. Don't let your emotions affect your decisions! "
"Yes, young master!"
Yuyao rubbed her forehead and whispered in agreement.
