Chapter 24 Li Wan buys alcohol

"Manager Cui, you look too ugly." Li Quan said very unhappy.

"Hmph." Manager Cui sneered, "Idiot, if you think it's not worth it, just ask your master if it's worth it. See the guests off."

Manager Cui flicked his sleeves and stopped looking at Li Quan.

Immediately, a servant came to Li Quan and made a gesture of invitation, asking Li Quan to leave.

Li Quan also flicked his sleeves and left Cui's Winery angrily.

Back at his residence, Li Quan told Manager Cui what he said.

"Uncle First, are you angry or not? That guy named Cui is just a manager, but he asked for five thousand guan. Why should he?"

"Just because we ask him for help, and because our last name is Li. He thinks that we have to come up with these five thousand coins to be worthy of the name of the Li family in Longxi."

"Can……"

"Okay, there's nothing wrong with it. Tomorrow you take one thousand taels of gold and send it to him. Just say that you will give him all these ten thousand taels of gold. The matter must be done successfully, otherwise he will have his life to take it, but he will not have his life to spend it."

When Li Quan heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that this was telling the other party that it was not easy to get the Li family's money, and if you get it, you should do things beautifully.

Li Feng knew that he was being targeted, otherwise all the wine shops would not have come to him immediately and told him that they would not sell wine to him.

But he couldn't figure out who he had offended. At the same time, he found that he was in Chang'an and had little information, which was very disadvantageous to him. He needed to cultivate a force or join a force.

After much deliberation, he denied that cultivating a force would be too time-consuming, laborious, and expensive. Moreover, if a force suddenly emerged in Chang'an, it would definitely be squeezed out by other forces unless he became an official.

But being an official means taking refuge in the largest force, the imperial court, which is considered taking refuge. It is better to take refuge directly in the government.

The first thing he thought of was Cheng Yaojin and his group of military forces. He had on hand the alcohol they had always wanted, and the Baijia Brew that made them salivate.

If they are bullied, they will definitely sit back and watch.

Li Feng looked at the devastated tavern and had no intention of cleaning up or opening a shop, so he closed the shop directly. He also did not live in the tavern for fear of being framed.

Taking thirty bottles of toilet water, I left the tavern and went to Taiping Village.

On the other side, when Li Wan sent someone to check on Li Feng, she couldn't sit still after learning that he had left the tavern with thirty bottles of wine.

He thought that those thirty bottles of wine must be filled with alcohol, otherwise he would not bring nothing but these thirty bottles of wine.

So, regardless of her face, she rode her war horse to chase Li Feng. He must get these thirty bottles of alcohol. She promised Li Jing and she would never break her promise.

Li Feng was sitting in the carriage, thinking about how to take his next step, when the carriage suddenly stopped.

"Car driver, what's going on? Why did you stop?" Li Feng said dissatisfiedly in the car. When he opened the curtain, his original smile turned into anger.

"It's you, you actually dare to appear in front of me."

Li Wan jumped off the horse and said awkwardly: "I'm sorry, I saw you being bullied, so I wanted to help you, but I never expected that you would be so powerful and much stronger than me. I knew that at that time

I’ve done a disservice to myself, and I hope Shopkeeper Li won’t be angry.”

Li Feng looked at Li Wan calmly and allowed her to explain.

Li Wan didn't speak when she saw the other party, and the atmosphere became very awkward. Finally, when she saw the wine bottle in Li Feng's hand, she mustered up the courage to say again: "My father is Generalissimo Li Jing. I learned that shopkeeper Li has alcohol, so I beg shopkeeper Li to

Sell ​​some to us."

"No."

"Shopkeeper Li, I know I'm sorry for you, but the alcohol in your hand is related to the lives of tens of millions of soldiers. Please show your respect to Shopkeeper Li." Li Wan requested very sincerely.

Li Feng said calmly: "I respect your father as a man. I won't embarrass you. If I say no, then I won't. No matter how much you talk about it, I won't be able to conjure it up for you."

"Impossible. If there is no alcohol, what are the bottles behind you?" It was impossible for Li Wan to believe Li Feng.

Li Feng was surprised at first, then became dissatisfied, and finally became sullen and said in a deep voice: "You sent someone to follow me?"

"No, I just sent someone to see if Shopkeeper Li needs help, because your tavern was..." Li Wan couldn't go on. It can't be said that your tavern was smashed, but you did nothing. You are a waste.

Just one.

They have real force, so they may not even be their opponents.

When Li Feng heard that the other party wanted to help him, his expression softened a lot. He picked up two bottles of toilet water and threw them directly.

Li Wan grabbed a bottle in one hand and a smile on her face. She got the alcohol at noon.

"Don't be too happy, this is not alcohol."

Li Wan's smile immediately solidified: "It's not alcohol? Then why are you so precious?"

Li Feng shrugged and said, "I can't help it. The weather is hot now and there are too many mosquitoes, so I invented two types of toilet water: mosquito repellent and anti-itching water.

I will give you one bottle each. If you think it is useful, you can buy it from me. I believe your army also needs this kind of toilet water.

Just sprinkle a little toilet water on the mosquito repellent to ensure that no mosquitoes will bite you, allowing you to have a peaceful sleep.

As for the anti-itch toilet water, it’s even more magical. Just spray a little bit of the anti-itch toilet water on the area bitten by mosquitoes, and it will immediately stop itching. It’s refreshing, cooling and very comfortable.”

Li Wan didn't believe it, so she took one of the bottles of toilet water and opened the cork. A unique smell of toilet water floated everywhere.

"It smells so good. This is not alcohol. Alcohol has a strong smell of wine. This is just a fragrance." Li Wan said disappointedly.

Li Feng smiled and said: "Yes, alcohol only tastes like alcohol. One sip will kill others half their lives."

"I don't want this thing. I want alcohol. Please ask Shopkeeper Li to sell me some alcohol. I can agree to whatever you want." Li Wan begged again.

"Promise to everything?" A lewd smile appeared on Li Feng's face.

Li Wan had goosebumps all over her body when she saw it, but she did not show any timidity and instead faced the challenge: "Yes, I agree to everything."

"Then I want you..."

"Bah, I knew you were a womanizer. Even if I don't need alcohol, I won't do what you want." Li Wan thought to herself with an angry look on her face, and at the same time, she labeled Li Feng a womanizer in her heart.

Li Feng ignored her and continued: "I want your identity."

"Bah, I won't promise you." Li Wan said loudly, but then she reacted and asked with a blank look on her face: "What did you say?"

Li Feng looked at Li Wan strangely and said, "You are thinking about all kinds of messy things. How could I, a tall and dignified man, be so dirty and take advantage of others' danger?"

What's more, I am a clean and self-respecting person, so even if you want to, I may not agree to it."

"You..." Li Wan was said to be furious again. She suppressed her anger, smiled, and said through gritted teeth: "What exactly do you want?"

Li Feng said: "Someone has attacked me recently and destroyed my pub. I want you to help me investigate."

"If you don't already know, why bother investigating, wasting time and manpower."

"I don't believe that the people at Cui's Winery dare to deal with me openly. This will not do them any good. Just help me investigate.

Then I will use your identity as the daughter of General Li Jing to force all the wine shops that participated in the destruction of my tavern to pay compensation," Li Feng said.

"Okay, I agree." Li Wan didn't even think about it and agreed directly.

"Then you go back, send someone to clean my tavern, and help me get my account back. It's not much. The Cui family wants 3,000 guan, and the other wineries have 1,000 guan."

"So many, you robbed them." Li Wan said in surprise.

Li Feng sneered and said: "Robbery, what a tasteless profession, and it is illegal. You may be betrayed by your brothers at any time. Only fools are willing to become robbers in such a dangerous profession. Not to mention that robbing money is not as fast as the money I make."

Li Wan felt powerless for a while, okay, you are right, robbery is not only dangerous, but it is not as profitable as Li Feng, and it is not cost-effective at all.

"Okay, I promise you, but I can't help you until I see the alcohol."

Li Feng rolled his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Whether you want to do it or not, remember that it is you who is asking for something from me, not me who is asking for something from you. Coachman, let's go."

"Ah, okay."

After the driver came to his senses, he drove away, leaving Li Wan alone.

Li Wan felt very unhappy and wanted to vent, so a nearby tree became his target.

"Ah... you bastard is so angry with me. I have never suffered such humiliation since I was a child. Just wait. Sooner or later, you will beg my aunt to help me."

After venting for a while, Li Wan took two bottles of toilet water and rode back to Chang'an. She returned to her house, called a few maids, and was about to go out, but Li Jing saw her.

"Wan'er, what do you want your maid to do?"

Li Wan said excitedly: "Dad, that Li Feng promised to sell alcohol to his daughter, but he is in some trouble now and needs me to help him solve it."

Li Jing frowned slightly and said, "What's the trouble? Let me see if it's a trap."

"Dad, you are thinking too much." Li Wan rolled her eyes at Li Jing, and then told what happened.

"You said that Li Feng is extremely powerful, maybe he is also a person with superb martial arts skills?"

"Yes, Dad, what's wrong?"

Li Jing looked at his daughter and then said: "Daughter, Li Feng is brave and resourceful. Although he has no official position at present, he has won the favor of His Majesty. Even Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and others are full of praises. Why don't you think of a way?

Take him down."

"Dad, what did you say? I'm ignoring you." Li Wan blushed and ran away.

Li Jing even shouted loudly: "Daughter, Li Feng is really good. You can consider it. You can really consider it."

Li Wan heard Li Jing speak louder from behind and ran away faster.

The servants and maids all looked puzzled. The master was going to introduce someone to the young lady.
