In the face of Yan Guilai's inquiry, Liu Yan nodded silently and said, "Of course I'm short of money. In this world, who doesn't lack money? Even if it's as rich as the Great Chu royalty, aren't they still complaining about being poor every day? "
Waving his hand, Yan Guilai said, "That's not what I mean. The problem is … you're just one person, and the commission isn't small. Isn't it enough for you to spend?"
After a pause, Yan Guilai continued, "You're so beautiful, and your figure and temperament are so good. Why do you want to do this kind of work? You can have a better life. "
With a wry smile, Liu Yan said, "You're still young. You don't understand … This world isn't as easy as you say."
While speaking, Liu Yan raised her head and looked blankly at the sky outside the window. "Your family must be rich. Naturally, you don't understand the difficulties of the world. Money … isn't as easy to earn as you say."
Hearing Liu Yan's words, Yan Guilai couldn't help but frown. "You're wrong. I'm not the son of a rich family. In fact … I'm a poor boy in the slums. Everything I have now is earned by myself."
Earned by yourself!
Hearing Yan Guilai's words, Liu Yan was stunned at first, then she sneered and shook her head. "Don't tease me, little brother. At your age, where can you earn so much money?"
Shrugging his shoulders, Yan Guilai said, "This is my secret. I can't tell you."
Waving her hand with a smile, Liu Yan said softly, "Well, even if you earn well, I don't have your ability. Besides this job, I can't find a better job."
While speaking, Liu Yan looked at Yan Guilai and continued, "You said that you're a poor boy from the slums. What a coincidence … In fact, I'm also from the slums. Until now, my home is still in the slums."
Frowning, Yan Guilai said, "Your commission from my meal alone is a lot. Don't you know how to save money?"
Save money?
With a wry smile, Liu Yan said, "I also want to save money, but … there are so many children in the slums. If I don't care about them, they will starve to death."
Hearing Liu Yan's words, Yan Guilai couldn't help but be stunned. He said in amazement, "You mean, you used the money you earned to help the homeless children in the slums?"
Nodding, Liu Yan said, "Not only the homeless children, those who are old and weak, and those who have lost the ability to make a living, I have to take care of them. Otherwise … they won't be able to survive."
Looking at Liu Yan's indifferent face, Yan Guilai couldn't help but be in awe.
Originally, Yan Guilai thought that the reason why she did this was to make money and then spend it on herself.
But now it seemed that Yan Guilai obviously misunderstood. This woman was really a good woman.
Looking carefully at the pink tight dress on Liu Yan's body, in fact … although this dress was gorgeous, it was actually a little faded. It was just that it was not easy to notice when set off by Liu Yan's unparalleled appearance.
Taking a long breath, Yan Guilai easily believed her words.
A woman who was so stingy to herself was so generous to the old, the young, the sick, and the disabled. This kind of quality was really precious.
Rumble …
While he was admiring, Yan Guilai's stomach rumbled. Touching his stomach, Yan Guilai smiled and said, "Well, in that case, then this young master wants to drink. Do you want to accompany me?"
Hearing Yan Guilai's words, Liu Yan's eyes suddenly lit up. She smiled like a flower and said, "Of course, I will accompany you. Come … follow me. The environment here is better."
While talking, Liu Yan led Yan Guilai to the corner by the window and sat down at a unique table.
Clapping her hands, soon … a maid came with the menu and hurried over.
After receiving the menu, Yan Gui Lai was more specific this time. He did not order any meat dishes, but he ordered eighteen dishes with all kinds of spiritual herbs, spiritual flowers, and spiritual fruits as ingredients.
Looking at Yan Guilai's extravagant manner, Liu Yan couldn't help but become anxious. She said angrily, "You little brat, why are you so wasteful? You ordered so many dishes, you can't finish them all!"
Yan Guilai waved his hand, but he didn't care at all.
First of all, his appetite was very big. It was only eighteen dishes, how could he not finish them?
Second, as the world's richest man, he had one billion taels of gold and ten trillion copper coins. The only expense he had was food. If he couldn't bear to spend money, then what was the use of money?
After ordering eighteen of the most expensive vegetarian dishes, Yan Guilai turned his head and looked at Liu Yan. He asked curiously, "I heard you arguing with the fat bald old man just now. You said that the Green Bamboo Leaf isn't the most expensive wine here?"
Nodding, Liu Yan said, "Originally, many wines weren't for sale, but … in order to maintain the army's expenses, many precious wines have been sold."
Hearing Liu Yan's words, Yan Guilai's eyes suddenly lit up. He said excitedly, "Tell me, what kind of wine do you have? How much is a pot? What's so special about it? "
Looking at Yan Guilai with a smile, Liu Yan said, "No matter how good the wine is, your level isn't high enough. Even if you have the money, we won't sell it to you. With your current level, besides the Green Bamboo Leaf, you can buy the raw Ice Marrow Wine."
Raw Ice Marrow Wine?
Hearing this strange name, Yan Guilai frowned and asked puzzledly, "What wine is that? Why is it called such a strange name? "
Facing Yan Guilai's question, Liu Yan said, "The Green Bamboo Leaf is actually made by exchanging Jade Water Wine and Ice Marrow Wine at a ratio of one thousand to one."
"One thousand to one! Doesn't that mean that a pot of Ice Marrow Wine costs one hundred thousand taels of gold per pot? "Hearing Liu Yan's words, Yan Guilai exclaimed in surprise.
Shaking her head, Liu Yan said, "No, although it's called Green Bamboo Leaf, it's actually not."
After a slight pause, Liu Yan continued, "The Ice Marrow Wine has been stored for too long. It can't be drunk without being diluted."
Stretching out her hands, Liu Yan said, "Therefore, the so-called Ice Marrow Wine is actually made by exchanging wine at a ratio of ten to one. The price of a pot is ten thousand taels of gold!"
Hearing Liu Yan's words, Yan Guilai laughed and said, "Ten to one? That's great. Come … give me ten pots first! "
Ten! Ten pots?
Hearing Yan Guilai's words, Liu Yan opened her mouth wide in disbelief.
Not only Liu Yan, but even the maid's breathing quickened. She hadn't seen such a generous customer for many years.
You! You really … ordered ten pots?
While panting heavily, Liu Yan's eyes widened in excitement.
One had to know that if Yan Gui Lai really ordered so many good wines, she would receive a large commission.
Seeing Liu Yan so excited that she was about to faint, Yan Guilai said, "How is it? You'll get a lot of commission this time, won't you?"
Yes, yes …
Nodding repeatedly, Liu Yan said, "Our commission is one thousandth. For these ten pots of Ice Marrow Wine, I can get a commission of one hundred taels of gold!"
"One thousandth? So low … "Yan Guilai said with a frown.
Facing Yan Guilai's complaint, Liu Yan smiled and said, "This is quite a lot. After all … these wines are very rare and expensive. For us to get one thousandth is already a sky-high salary."
Tilting her head and thinking, indeed … those who were qualified to come here could be said to be rich and respectable. One thousandth of a meal was already a huge fortune.
