"The Bejewelled Nectar Wine is nothing!" Once these words came out, the atmosphere in the store slightly froze.
The three barbarians of Ouyang and Xiao Xiaolong glared at Bu Fang. They were wine lovers and the Bejewelled Nectar Wine was the best wine they had ever tasted. However, in Bu Fang's mouth, it was … nothing!
"Haha! Smelly boss, your words are so cool! "Ouyang Xiaoyi happily clapped her hands and cheered. She liked this kind of confidence from Bu Fang.
"Pfft, has a country bumpkin ever tasted the Bejewelled Nectar Wine? He's just spouting nonsense. " Zhao Ruge disdainfully snorted and curled his lips. The best wine in the Light Wind Empire was carefully selected by the emperor. How could a small restaurant owner like Bu Fang have the chance to taste it?
Bu Fang frowned and looked toward Zhao Ruge. He was very familiar with this guy, not for any other reason, but because he had tried to use money to open his store.
"Compared to my wine … all other ordinary wines are trash."
Bu Fang simply said. He was bursting with confidence. He had absolute confidence in the Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine.
"Owner Bu, you have wine here?" Xiao Xiaolong's eyes lit up and his fair face was flushed from excitement.
Bu Fang pointed at the menu behind him and did not say anything.
Everyone understood and turned their heads to look at the menu...
"Hiss!"
This sound came from Zhao Ruge. Today was his first time entering the store and his first time seeing the menu. Even though he had heard many rumors about the store's sky-high prices, he still sucked in a breath of cold air when he saw the prices with his own eyes.
Ouyang Xiaoyi and the others immediately rolled their eyes at him. This inexperienced Zhao Ruge … Was there a need to make such a fuss?
"Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine, fifteen crystals per jar," Xiao Xiaolong softly read out.
"Owner Bu's dishes are indeed as expensive as ever." Xiao Yanyu let out a pleasant sigh. Fifteen crystals per jar was much more expensive than the Bejewelled Nectar Wine that cost five hundred gold coins per jar.
Comparing the two prices, the Bejewelled Nectar Wine was indeed … nothing.
"Fifteen crystals for a jar of wine? Was he crazy? Is his wine worth that much? " Zhao Ruge was in disbelief. Five hundred gold coins for a jar of Bejewelled Nectar Wine was already considered a sky-high price, but fifteen crystals... was practically sky-high!
"Owner Bu! Don't say anything else, just give me a jar! Fortunately, I have the foresight to know that Owner Bu's wine is definitely not cheap, so I brought enough crystals, "Xiao Xiaolong said to Bu Fang excitedly.
"Owner Bu, give us three brothers a jar too! The Lees Fish is already so delicious, so this wine is definitely not bad! "Ouyang Zhen said casually.
Zhao Ruge raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Xiaolong and the three barbarians of Ouyang in surprise. They actually bought this expensive wine … Could it be that this wine was really that good?
Immediately, Zhao Ruge made up his mind, clenched his teeth and said, "Give me a jar too!"
Hmph, compared to the Bejewelled Nectar Wine, I want to see what kind of confidence this little corner of the world has to dare to sell a wine for fifteen crystals!
"I'm sorry, there are only three jars of Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine a day. If you want to drink, come back tomorrow." Bu Fang indifferently glanced at Zhao Ruge and expressionlessly said.
Zhao Ruge was stunned for a moment, then his eyes spat fire. You f * cking rejected me again! Do I have a grudge against you?
"Didn't you say there are only three jars? One jar for Xiao Xiaolong, one jar for the three Ouyang brothers, and you're not selling the last jar to me? Are you looking down on me? "
Zhao Ruge was furious.
Facing the flustered and exasperated Zhao Ruge, Bu Fang felt a little strange and puzzled. However, his expression remained indifferent as he said, "The last jar has already been reserved."
Reserved? Excuse … This must be an excuse! Zhao Ruge was furious. Looking at Bu Fang's expressionless face, he really wanted to give him a shoehorn. This guy really deserved a beating!
"Then tell me, who reserved the third jar of wine? I'm going to throw money at him until he gives up! "Zhao Ruge said with a gloomy expression.
"Oh, do whatever you want as long as you don't cause trouble." Bu Fang indifferently said. Then, he turned around and walked toward the kitchen. When he reached the entrance, he suddenly turned his head and curiously asked, "Aren't you guys going to order other dishes? Only wine? "
"Give me a Golden Shumai," Xiao Yanyu gently said.
Xiao Xiaolong grinned and ordered the improved Egg-Fried Rice. As usual, the three barbarians of Ouyang ordered a Lees Fish. Lees Fish was the only dish they liked.
"What about you?" Bu Fang's gaze fell on Zhao Ruge.
Zhao Ruge narrowed his eyes and said, "Give me a Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs! If I want to eat, I'll eat the most expensive! "
The others were startled. Only then did they realize that there was a new dish on the menu. Their gazes were all attracted by the Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine.
"Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs? Hmm, okay. "Bu Fang nodded his head and turned around to enter the kitchen.
Sweet 'n' Sour Ribs, fifty crystals per dish, was the most expensive dish in the store.
"Zhao Ruge, did you bring enough crystals?" Ouyang Xiaoyi could not help but ask. Fifty crystals per dish, even the little princess of the Ouyang family was a little speechless.
"I'm not short of money, what's a mere fifty crystals? Don't forget about our bet. Yanyu, just you wait to enjoy the moon with me on the lake. " Zhao Ruge smiled confidently. As the son of the Minister of the Left, he had his own business in the imperial city. A mere fifty crystals was indeed nothing.
In fact, once a cultivator reached the level of Battle-King, the amount of crystals required for cultivation was in the hundreds or thousands. In order to achieve a breakthrough, one would need tens of thousands of crystals.
Crystals were nothing to high-grade cultivators. Even though Zhao Ruge was not a high-grade cultivator, he had a lot of businesses. Furthermore, the target audience of his businesses were cultivators, so he was not short of crystals.
Zhao Ruge faintly smiled as he sat on a chair. He took out the Bejewelled Nectar Wine that was stored in a green jade jar. He even brought a few green jade cups with him. After pouring a few cups, he said to Xiao Yanyu and the rest, "Come, sit down. Let's have a taste of the Bejewelled Nectar Wine."
There was a reason why the Bejewelled Nectar Wine was chosen by the emperor as the imperial wine and rated as the best wine in the Light Wind Empire. Just as the cups were filled, a rich wine aroma instantly spread out.
Xiao Xiaolong and the three barbarians of Ouyang could no longer hold it in.
However, just as they were about to taste the Bejewelled Nectar Wine, a figure slowly stepped into the store. The steady footsteps seemed to contain a strange magic.
Everyone's gaze was attracted by the figure at the entrance.
He was wearing a black robe, holding a longsword wrapped in rags, and wearing a bamboo hat with a black veil covering his face. His figure was slender and his aura was incomparably mysterious.
The moment this person stepped into the store, the air within the store seemed to have become a little colder.
The muscles on the bodies of the three barbarians of Ouyang suddenly constricted as they vigilantly looked at the mysterious man wearing a bamboo hat. They could feel an extremely terrifying aura coming from this man's body.
This aura caused the true energy within their bodies to involuntarily circulate on its own … It was a form of self-protection during a crisis.
Xiao Yanyu and Xiao Xiaolong were both startled as they tightly stared at the man. They could feel the gaze from beneath the black veil falling upon them.
"Who are you?!" Zhao Ruge frowned and coldly asked. This person was a little strange.
Nowadays, the imperial city was filled with experts from various sects. Perhaps … this person was also an expert from one of the sects.
"Me? I'm just a customer. " The mysterious man's hoarse voice sounded like sand as he directly sat on the seat at the entrance and placed the longsword wrapped in rags on the table.
The rags seemed to be quite old, having been washed until they had turned white and stiff.
"You … What would you like to order?" Ouyang Xiaoyi timidly asked. This person's aura was really terrifying.
"I reserved the Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine from Owner Bu yesterday and I'm here to collect it today," the man said in his hoarse voice.
Collect the wine?!
Everyone was startled and then looked at Zhao Ruge with a strange expression. This guy seemed to have said that he would spend money to buy the last jar of Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine from the person who reserved it.
Zhao Ruge was startled for a moment, then the corners of his mouth curled up. He elegantly sat across from the man and confidently said, "Sell me the Ice Heart Jade Urn Wine, I'll pay you three times the price."
"Not selling," the man indifferently replied.
Zhao Ruge frowned and continued, "Five times the price."
"I already said, not selling."
"Do you know who I am? Are you trying to offend me? "After being rejected twice in a row, Zhao Ruge became angry and threatened with a cold expression.
Finally, the man's gaze seemed to finally lift up and fall upon Zhao Ruge. His hoarse voice sounded out like thunder.
"Even if the Minister of the Left was here, he wouldn't dare to speak to me like this. Who do you think you are?"
