Chu Huan took out a coarse cloth handkerchief, handed it over, and said with a smile: "Big boss, I've heard people say that when a beautiful person cries a lot, he will become uglier and uglier!" ”

Linlang raised her head, snatched the coarse cloth handkerchief, glared at Chu Huan, and reprimanded: "Nonsense, who did you listen to?" I...... I'm not pretty! ”

Chu Huan sighed: "The big boss is deceiving himself, you go to the street and ask someone, I can guarantee that eleven out of ten people will say that you are beautiful, if you don't believe it, we can make a bet!" ”

Linlang's face was red, and she smiled, she smiled with pear blossoms and rain, it was so beautiful that she wiped the corners of her eyes with a coarse cloth handkerchief, and said angrily: "You are talking nonsense, I didn't cry ......!" But hearing Chu Huan praise her for her beauty, she was still very happy in her heart, her face was crimson, and her beauty was abnormal, which made Chu Huan a little embarrassed to look at her.

Linlang sat down, his expression gloomy, and sighed lightly: "I'm afraid Sheng Quan and I won't be able to hold on!" ”

Chu Huan frowned and said, "Big Boss, do you think the Lu family will not supply food anymore?" Without waiting for Linlang to finish speaking, he nodded and said: "Lu Shixun's character is not good, the big boss rejected him this time, I'm afraid he won't help us again." ”

Linlang glanced at Chu Huan, in this hall, there were only two of them left at this time, very clean, and said softly: "You sit down first!" ”

Chu Huan sat down and asked, "How long can our food last?" ”

"When my father was alive, he prevented food problems, and the winery had no food, which would never be able to support it." Linlang said softly: "So Sheng Quan's grain depot and I have always stored at least half a year's worth of grain in case of unpreparedness. Today, the grain in the grain depot can only last for two ...... at most! ”

"Two months?" Chu Huan frowned.

Linlang sighed faintly: "There are nearly two hundred guys in Heshengquan, all of whom rely on the winery to survive, and there are several wineries under my name in Fucheng, and they are all selling Heshengquan's wine, once the food is cut off and there is no wine supply, then not only the winery and the winery are facing difficulties, but the most important thing is that once the supply of wine is cut off, the business network created by my father for decades will also be in trouble." ”

Chu Huan nodded and said, "The big proprietor is worried that if there is no wine source, those wine merchants who cooperate with us will abandon us?" ”

"It's not necessarily that they abandon us, but when businessmen come together, it's a combination of interests." Linlang said: "Without the source of wine, they naturally can't continue to cooperate with us, and there are many wineries in the world, not to mention other places, there are four or five big wineries in my Yunshan Mansion alone, and these restaurants will definitely take advantage of our Su family's lack of wine supply, take advantage of the weakness, and rob our wine market!" ”

Chu Huan knew that the Su family was really in a big predicament this time, he pondered for a moment, and finally asked, "Big Dong, can we secretly buy grain?" Don't use the name of the Su family to break it into pieces and buy grain through other channels in private? ”

Linlang smiled bitterly: "No." In all walks of life, there are rules. If we buy it into parts, it is impossible not to leak the news, if it is found by those who have other intentions, it will frame my Su family for secretly buying grain, and maybe it will be charged with rebellion......! ”

Chu Huan leaned back in his chair, wondering if there was a way to solve the matter.

"If nothing else, the Lu family's grain may not be able to be supplied." Linlang sneered: "I don't have much contact with Lu Shixun, but I also know that this person's flaws will be reported, although this batch of grain transported from Taiyuan may really be halfway, but ...... Lu Shixun will definitely come up with an excuse to make the food undeliverable! ”

Chu Huan touched his chin and said, "It can't be done in the open, and it can't be done in secret, isn't there any other way?" Except for the Lu family and Yunshan Mansion, there is no other place to buy grain? ”

Linlang shook his head and said solemnly: "Taiyuan Mansion is located in Pingyang Road, out of Xigu Pass, it is the boundary of Pingyang Road, and it is also the first road in Guanxi. Entering the West Valley Pass, it is our West Mountain Road, which is the first pass. The Lu family is not only in Taiyuan Mansion, but also in the entire Pingyang Province is the leading grain merchants, if there is no Lu family's consent, it is impossible for the grain from Guanxi to come in. And in the Guan area, although there are many grain-producing places, but there is Liu Juguang, he has the strength to prevent the grain from other places from flowing into the Yunshan territory, to the east and west, we can't get the grain, even if we secretly find a grain merchant to buy, Liu Juguang's ears and eyes always pay attention to us, the first time the grain comes in, the second batch of grain Liu Juguang will definitely block! ”

There was an anxious look on her face, and if she hadn't been helpless, she wouldn't have been so sad.

Chu Huan understands that no matter how powerful he is, he can't control the trade route after all, if the Liu family and the Lu family are maliciously targeting the Su family, with his current strength, there is nothing he can do.

Linlang Yu held her cheeks with her arms, and there was a lock of green silk on her cheeks, which looked charming and moving, as if she thought of something, and then sighed faintly: "If things are really as I expected, and the Lu family no longer supplies food, then my Su family will only have one way to get out of the predicament!" ”

"What's the method?"

"The Imperial Sake Selection after the beginning of the year." Linlang said softly: "When the New Year passes, there will soon be officials in Beijing to come to select the imperial wine of Xishan Road, and select the tribute imperial wine of Xishan Road!" ”

Chu Huan sat up straight and asked, "So what?" ”

"If we and Shengquan's wine can win the championship in one fell swoop and become a tribute wine, then all problems can be solved." Linlang explained: "As long as we win the name of imperial wine, then Liu Juguang not only does not dare to stop us from buying grain, but also the Department of Household Affairs will provide us with the best grain to make wine every year!" ”

Chu Huan didn't know anything about this, and his spirit was shocked: "There are such good things? ”

Linlang nodded and said, "If you really want to become the choice of imperial wine, it will be a great good thing for us and Sheng Quan." In addition to not having to pay taxes, the Ministry of Household Affairs will provide a large amount of high-quality grain every year, and the price will only charge 30% of the market price, and the reputation of Heshengquan will be even louder, and in case of any trouble, the government will come out to maintain it, so as not to be able to provide imperial wine to Beijing smoothly. What we have to do is to provide 1,000 jars of fine wine to the capital every year! ”

Chu Huan smiled: "This is really a good thing. ”

Linlang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "But if you really want to be selected for the imperial wine, then how easy is it." As far as I know, there are a total of 134 restaurants in the states of Xishan Road, and there are more than 40 of them that are famous. When my father was alive, my greatest wish was that Sheng Quan's wine and I would one day become imperial wine, and his old man's wish was almost fulfilled, just one step away! ”

"One step away?" Since Chu Huan wanted to help Linlang get out of the predicament, he naturally wanted to know more about the inside story, so he asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Linlang supports and Sheng Quan independently, there are only a handful of people who can discuss big things under her hands, many times, all the pressure is concentrated on her alone, now Chu Huan is by her side, she has unconsciously regarded Chu Huan as her biggest pillar, she is full of grievances and has nowhere to tell, with Chu Huan here, she is subconsciously willing to tell Chu Huan about her difficulties, and said with a wry smile: "Just five years ago, my father was still alive, and in that imperial wine selection, I and Shengquan's bamboo sake passed all the way, only the last step was missing, and the Xinzhou Fang family entered the final selection ......! ”

Chu Huan knew that Xinzhou was the second largest state in Xishan Road after Yunshan Mansion, and there was no doubt that the final winner was won by the Fang family of Xinzhou.

"The Fang family has become the choice of the imperial wine for two consecutive years, and in the past ten years, the Fang family has represented the highest peak of the entire Xishan Road wine industry." Linlang's face showed disdain, and he sneered: "Everyone in the world thinks that the Fang family really has this ability, but few people know that they can become the choice of the imperial wine, but there is just a shady curtain inside!" ”

Chu Huan was very interested and asked, "Where do you start with this?" ”

"They won the first time, and I don't know how. But the victory five years ago was just a matter of money. Linlang said slowly: "The selection of imperial wine, once every five years, the beginning of the selection and elimination, is evaluated by ten famous wine masters, but in the end, when there are only four left, it will be evaluated by the Shaoqing of Guanglu Temple, two of the four, and finally one of the two is selected as the household of imperial wine!" ”

"Last time I was selected, and Shengquan and the Xinzhou Fang family went to the end, but the Fang family won, they were able to win the name of the imperial wine, are they playing tricks?" Chu Huan frowned and asked.

Linlang nodded slightly: "Exactly." In fact, before the final assessment, the young secretary of Guanglu Temple had privately sent someone to find his father, suggesting that if he took out a sum of silver, our Su family's bamboo sake would win. Speaking of this, he sighed lightly: "But my father is an upright man, he thinks that if he wins by bribery in private, he will not be able to prove that the bamboo sake of Heshengquan is the real imperial wine, so he refuses to give silver, and only wants to become a ...... of imperial wine with his strength!" Speaking of this, he looked at Chu Huan and said with a wry smile: "If you don't say the result, you can naturally guess it!" ”

Chu Huan nodded slightly, and suddenly realized: "I see!" ”

"It is precisely because of this incident that my father has always had a knot in his heart, he was depressed all day long, and finally passed away without physical support." Linlang's eyes turned red: "Before he died, he instructed me to hold on to Heshengquan until our bamboo sake can one day become a tribute imperial wine with its strength!" ”

Chu Huan exclaimed: "The old club is really an upright person, I believe that the old club's wish will definitely be fulfilled!" ”

"I hope so." Linlang sighed lightly: "There is really no way out, so I can only count on next year's imperial wine selection ......!" After a pause, he suddenly felt that it seemed a little inappropriate for Shen Geng to be alone with Chu Huan's lonely man and widow in the middle of the night, and his pretty face turned red and said, "It's late at night, you should rest earlier." Not...... If there is nothing else to do tomorrow, you can accompany me to Jingci Nunnery! ”

Chu Huan said: "Okay! Suddenly, he thought of something, frowned and asked, "Jingci'an?" ”

Linlang saw that he looked weird, and said strangely: "What's wrong?" ”

Chu Huan shook his head and smiled: "It's nothing." But in my heart, I suddenly remembered that the little nun I helped, Rulian, wasn't she and her master kicked out by the people of Jingci'an?

"You're a weird guy, and you don't know what's going on in your mind." Linlang chuckled lightly, and suddenly said softly: "Tonight's matter, did you do it?" ”

Chu Huan was stunned, "What?" ”

"That...... That Ning Yu! Linlang blushed: "You found them?" ”

Linlang Bingxue is smart, Governor Qiao Mingtang came suddenly tonight, and then came over with Ning Yu, it was strange everywhere, and she had already guessed a few points in her heart.

Chu Huan smiled and said, "Dadong, I've only been in the city for a few days, how can I know the people in Qinglou?" I'm not the casual kind of person. ”

Linlang's face was even more blushing, and she said angrily: "You are mysterious and secretive, who knows if you know each other in private." ”

Chu Huan hurriedly said: "Big Dong, you can't wronged me, I'm not that kind of person, I never enter the ...... If you don't enter the Qinglou, don't you believe me? ”

Linlang bit her red lips, delicate and charming, and said in a low voice: "Then why did you come forward to protect that Ning Yu?" ”

Chu Huan was stunned for a moment, remembering that he came forward to defend Ning Yu at that time, and complained about Ning Yu, he didn't expect this beautiful young woman to take it to heart, and smiled helplessly: "Big Boss, you also know that I am a person with a somewhat impulsive temperament, and I always can't help but take care of things when I see injustices on the road." ”

Linlang smiled charmingly, and didn't ask much, and was about to leave, Chu Huan suddenly thought of something, and asked, "Yes, does the big boss like that gift?" ”

"What?" Linlang didn't come back to her senses for a while, and asked a little strangely.

Chu Huan smiled: "It's the pearl for you." ”

He remembered that the box was filled with pearls, and thought to himself that women should like that kind of thing, and if they knew that it was a pearl bandeau that was given, they would never dare to say a word again.

Linlang understood, ashamed and annoyed, her fair face instantly flew away, she turned her head, she didn't dare to look at Chu Huan, her breathing was short, her chest rose and fell, and the waves were turbulent, "You...... You're not a good person......! ”

She only felt that her heart was beating hard, and she pressed her undulating breasts with one hand, only to feel that the roots of her ears were feverish, and she thought to herself: "He is really ...... It's really light, not only did he give away that shameful thing, but he also ...... ...... asked in person! ”

Chu Huan saw Linlang's strange reaction, and couldn't help but be confused by the second monk, he really didn't know why, and said, "Don't you like it?" It's not a good thing, but I think it's quite suitable for a big club. ”

He just thinks that the pearl should look good when strung together with silk thread, and Linlang is a woman, even if she doesn't like it very much, she won't hate it.

When Linlang heard him say this, she was even more ashamed to find a crack in the ground to get into, and secretly scolded this person for having no skin and no face, but for some reason, she was more ashamed and less annoyed, stomped her foot, and said, "You're not...... Not a good guy ......! "I didn't dare to stay, so I left quickly.

Chu Huan touched his head and wondered, "I'm not a good person?" Where does this begin? Turning around and walking out, he muttered to himself: "I don't know what kind of jewelry it is, I should have taken it out and looked at it carefully, but no matter what kind of jewelry, the big owner should look good when wearing it, I don't know if I can see the big owner wearing it." ”
