Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and said: "The world is lonely as snow, so it would be a pleasure to sit here when you have time. When the snow continues to fall, you can cook wine and enjoy the snow!"

For Li Xiuyuan right now, the Imperial City is a place where he can really sharpen his mind.

You can only look at everything and not take action. Perhaps this is also the old Taoist priest's mind.

Having said this, Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and looked at Zhang Liang and said: "When you go to the market, buy me a piece of iron wood that is a thousand years old. I can use it."

Zhang Liang was stunned and blurted out: "Thousand-year-old iron wood? What do you want to use it for? It doesn't bother me. I'll go look for it in Neshang."

Li Xiuyuan said calmly: "Xiao Hei and Shuzi, I want to cut two wooden swords for them. You can use the bamboo sword."

When Xu Fu heard this, he smiled and said, "The imperial city does not prohibit weapons. Can I buy a handful of copper coins?"

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said: "The iron sword is a murder weapon, and I don't want their hands to be stained with blood."

Xu Fu laughed when he heard this, and thought that this was indeed an interesting guy. He obviously wanted to practice swordsmanship, but he didn't want his brother and sister to get blood on their hands.

If I tell you this, I'm afraid it will be hard to find in the world.

Zhang Liang laughed and said, "This is a simple matter. It concerns my Shuzi. I will take care of it."

Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said with a smile: "Seeing that the summer solstice will not be long, I quickly made wine while the spring scenery was still good."

When Xu Fu heard this, he couldn't help but asked: "Shopkeeper Li, is there any difference between brewing wine in spring and summer?"

Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and replied: "What's the difference? You can try it yourself and see if there is any difference in the wine brewed in spring, autumn and winter..."

He didn't want to explain too much about the truth. From now on, he wanted the two of them to try it themselves.

Spring flowers, autumn moon, winter snow, which season cannot make wine?

However, he likes the smell of spring. This is his own secret.

After chatting for a while, Li Xiuyuan took two jugs of wine and placed them in front of the two of them: "This wine is a gift from me. Next time, you have to make it yourself."

Zhang Liang naturally wouldn't dislike it, so he thought about it and asked, "Would you like me to go to the restaurant to prepare a few dishes, so that you can stay drunk at night??"

Xu Fu drank up the remaining wine in his glass and said with a smile: "I've been disturbed a lot today. From tomorrow on, I will be Shopkeeper Li's student. I hope you'll bear with me."

Li Xiuyuan replied: "As long as you two are not afraid of hardship, you are welcome at any time."

For Li Xiuyuan, teaching Zhang Liang how to make wine can be regarded as a way to pass the time when he will be bored in his long life.

As for Xu Fu, Li Xiuyuan suddenly had other thoughts, but he didn't want to say it yet.

"It's easy to talk!" Xu Fu smiled: "There are many interruptions today, so let's say goodbye first."

After saying that, he put down the wine bowl in his hand, carefully arranged his gown, and said goodbye to Li Xiuyuan.

Li Xiuyuan sent the two people to the door and watched them walking to the carriage on the street. As if he remembered something, he said to Zhang Liang, "Do you want to go to the academy to pick someone up?"

Zhang Liang was about to get on the carriage, turned around and waved and said: "It's okay, I told Xiao Hei to take my sister back home first!"

After saying that, the two got into the carriage, the driver waved his whip, the wheels shimmered on the bluestone, and they left slowly.

"Xu Fu who traveled eastward..."

Looking at the carriage gradually going away, Li Xiuyuan murmured to himself with a faint smile: "Interesting!"

…

Sitting quietly and watching the situation, Li Xiuyuan did not expect that Xu Fu, who wanted to travel eastward to seek immortality, would arrive.

This was an interesting thing for him, and Quan even had a new idea. Since it would not disturb the balance of heaven and earth, it would be better to go out and explore the landscape of Daqin.

After clearing everything on the table, several regular customers came to buy wine.

Opening the door to sell wine was just a matter of breaking one's waist for a bucket of rice. Li Xiuyuan looked like a good businessman at this time. While getting wine for the guests, collecting money, he smiled and greeted a few times.

After sending away the wine-buying guests, it was getting late, and the sound of carriage wheels pressing against bluestones could be heard.

When I looked up, it was Xiao Hei who had just finished school in the academy.

Looking at Li Xiuyuan standing at the door and preparing to close the door, he shouted loudly: "Brother, are you waiting for Xiao Hei here?"

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "You are now a student in the academy, and you walk and talk well."

Xiao Hei took his arm and smiled: "I heard from Master that he is going to travel in the past few days, and he said he would take Xiao Hei with him."

Li Xiuyuan touched his head and smiled: "Master is going out, this is a good opportunity for you to increase your knowledge."

Xiao Hei was startled when he heard this, and blurted out: "Xiao Hei and his wife are going on a trip, what should I do, brother?"

Li Xiuyuan smiled lightly and said, "Let's talk about it."

…

Xiao Hei dreams of traveling with his wife, but Li Xiuyuan wants to seize the tail of spring and make more wine.

An unexpected meeting with Xu Fu made him think about going out for a walk.

If you can brew some more wine at this time and keep it for a few months, or even drink it in winter, it will be a fine wine.

Fortunately, Zhang Liang and his wife took leave these days, and spent seven days brewing twenty jars of wine with Xu Fu and Li Xiuyuan.

Xu Fu's third jar and Zhang Liang's second jar were brewed with corn, and the other ten jars were brewed by Li Xiuyuan with sorghum and black beans.

In his opinion, the wine he currently has in stock will gradually be enough to last for a year. If the time for traveling is excluded, it will last even longer.

After a few days of hard work, the three of them sat in the yard making tea and chatting.

The wooden sword in Li Xiuyuan's hand was almost completed, which made Zhang Liang envious. Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said: "I thought about it, this is for you and Shuzi, Xiao Hei should continue to use the bamboo sword."

These days, Shuzi would follow Xiaohei to the small courtyard of the wine shop to practice swordsmanship for half an hour from time to time, and then return home with Zhang Liang.

Although Zhang Liang and Shuzi haven't learned how to cut snow yet, in Li Xiuyuan's opinion, as long as they practice hard for a winter, they will be able to get started.

After Zhan Xue enters the door, it will naturally be much easier for the two of them to learn swordsmanship from the master.

"Shopkeeper Li has worked hard to teach us these days, now I have to go back and try to do it myself!".

Holding a cup of hot tea, Xu Fu looked at Li Xiuyuan and said with a smile.

Li Xiuyuan stopped what he was doing, thought for a moment and said, "These are all trivial matters. I'm afraid Mr. Xu won't have much time to stay in the imperial city."

Li Xiuyuan knew in his heart that Xu Fu would leave the imperial city soon.

Xu Fu was stunned and secretly thought that the news that I was going out had not spread. How could the people in front of him know about it?

Could it be that someone revealed this important news? For a moment, he was a little stunned.

"Brother, what do you say?"

Zhang Liang poured tea for the two of them and asked in a deep voice: "Why can't I understand anything you two said?"

Li Xiuyuan smiled faintly, looked at Zhang Liang and said, "I'm just guessing about this. If Mr. Xu wants to tell you, that's fine."

"I'm just guessing. The secret must not be leaked! Mr. Xu should understand this." Li Xiuyuan said calmly.

Whether it was shopkeeper Liu or Xu Fu, Li Xiuyuan did not dare to tell what he knew. He was also afraid that it would affect the ending of the story in the long run.

Xu Fu, who was holding a cup of tea, was a bit incredulous. He frowned and asked, "Is it possible that this young gentleman can tell fortunes?!"

Li Xiuyuan, who was wiping his sword with a handkerchief, felt speechless. He looked at him and said calmly: "I can only understand these things? I can't express them in words. I just have a little intuition."

I wanted to have a good chat with Xu Fu about some future issues, but looking at Zhang Liang facing me, I felt that the two of them wanted to take different paths after all, and I didn't know what to say for a while.

When the words came to my lips, I realized that no matter what I said, it was wrong.

"Sir, shopkeeper, when will we be able to drink the wine we worked so hard to brew?"

Seeing that Li Xiuyuan didn't want to continue the previous question, Xu Fu wisely avoided it and then changed the topic.

Maybe wait until tomorrow, or maybe after Zhang Liang leaves, Li Xiuyuan will talk to him alone.

Zhang Liang simply made an exaggerated gesture and said with a smile: "I will ask a few guys to come over tomorrow and bring my wine back to my house and store it until next year."

Li Xiuyuan smiled without saying a word. From his point of view, since the two of them have learned almost the same, if they want to drink it in the future, they can brew it by themselves.

Save yourself the trouble of doing it alone.

"It takes seven to ten days to drink in a hurry, but it's best to keep it for a month. It tastes best in a year."

Li Xiuyuan looked at the two of them and smiled and said: "Zhang Liang, you can continue brewing tomorrow. Remember to brew a vat for Master."

While he was talking, the sound of a carriage sounded on the street, and soon the old housekeeper from Zhang Liang's house walked in.

After greeting the three of them, he turned to Zhang Liang and said, "A relative has come to my hometown. Do you have to come back with me?"

"Is there someone at home?" Zhang Liang snorted, and then said to Xu Fu: "I have something to do, you two can chat slowly, and I will find someone to come over tomorrow to carry the wine."

After saying that, he waved his hand and turned around and left the wine shop.

There was a sound of wheels and the carriage gradually moved away.

"Now, if the shopkeeper has anything to say, you can tell me directly." Xu Fu said with a faint smile.

Li Xiuyuan thought for a while and said: "Actually, I just had a dream. Most of the things in the dream cannot be taken as true. I'm just going to say it, and you can just believe it..."

Xu Fu was startled, looked at him and asked nervously: "Tell me, what are you afraid of? I won't tell anyone until I die..."

Xu Fu looked at him in disbelief. He didn't expect that Li Xiuyuan actually dreamed of something.

Li Xiuyuan shook his head, looked at him and said softly: "People say there are fairy mountains on the sea, and my husband and the King of Qin asked for orders to go and explore them. I have nothing to do, so I can accompany you on the journey."
