Chapter 283: Authentic Spring and Winter Plum Fragrance Wine

After sending the strong man away, the cook brought breakfast from the back kitchen, which was very light white porridge and a plate of green vegetables. The proprietress went to the second floor and brought down the two children who slept in. It is not good for children to sleep in, as they will become lazy. Of course, the more important thing is that she never slept in when she was a child.

The cook and Li Changxiao looked at them with some concern, but that look angered the proprietress, who couldn't help but put her hands on her hips and asked back, does she look like a person without measure?

She saw that the two were afraid that she would call the two immature children the way she called Li Changxiao.

He got into bed as soon as he came up.

Just kidding.

He is much more obedient than Li Changxiao.

Soon, a table of people sat down neatly, two children and three adults, white porridge and green vegetables, plain and simple.

Firewood was burning in the fireplace, but the weather was getting colder. The two siblings were shivering and their teeth were chattering. The three of them were not afraid of the cold, but the two children were. Seeing this situation, they simply solved the problem. After the morning, Li Changxiao went to Mei Sanniang's room and found two fox fur cloaks to wrap the two siblings.

She had many styles of clothes, and those two were not bad.

The cloaks still had the body fragrance of Mei Sanniang.

I made half a tael of silver when I opened the door today. The momentum was still good, but the follow-up was a little weak, and not many people came.

The stables and vegetable fields outside the inn had been abandoned for a long time.

In fact, the work was not heavy, and most of the time was spent in a daze.

Mei Sanniang smoked a dry pipe repeatedly, and I didn't know what she was thinking. A morning passed quickly. A total of seven guests came, almost all of them were monks. They just came in to sit, ordered a cup of hot tea, and chatted for a few words after drinking, talking about some strange stories, and then left in a hurry.

Just like before.

As Mei Sanniang said, it was almost impossible to make any money from these people.

So in one morning, he earned half a tael of silver and thirty copper coins. Li Changxiao collected the copper coins on the table one by one and scattered them in the piggy bank.

There was a kind of fun in collecting.

In the afternoon.

The situation improved.

A mortal caravan passed by, with ten Jianghu travelers, two traveling merchants, and three followers, a total of fifteen people.

They saw that it was getting dark, and there was no village in front and no shop behind. If they missed this inn, they would have no place to stay, so they came to Laiqu Inn.

This was a big business. With so many guests coming at the same time, Mei Sanniang smiled from ear to ear, as if she saw the white silver.

Li Changxiao naturally couldn't entertain them all by himself, so Mei Sanniang also walked out of the counter and invited them to sit down and order dishes. Li Changxiao took his followers and arranged their carriages, horses, and goods.

The lobby was bustling.

Li Changxiao found Mei Sanniang and told her a serious problem. There was no horse feed.

And... the horse shed was leaking.

When I went to the town to buy supplies before, I didn't think of this, so I bought leaks, but it's not difficult to solve it.

If there is no horse feed, let the horses starve for a night.

All I have to do is sacrifice the boss's wife's beauty, wait for those people to eat happily, go over to offer two glasses of wine, say a few words of apology, and they will probably not say anything.

As for the leak in the horse shed, I can secretly fix it in the middle of the night.

This still needs to be done.

Otherwise, the horses will freeze to death, which will be difficult to deal with.

Mei Sanniang punched Li Changxiao coquettishly, and then rolled her eyes in a charming way. This dead man actually let her sell her beauty.

She did it.

When the group of people had a good meal, Mei Sanniang twisted her waist and walked over gracefully, holding a wine pot in her right hand and a wine glass in her left hand, and offered a few glasses of wine to each table.

Some of the wanderers stared at the plump and sexy figure of the proprietress, and some of them couldn't take their eyes off. It was really moving to see such a scene in such a remote place.

After eating and drinking, the caravan rested in the lobby on the first floor, chatting and playing cards, and talking about some thrilling things they encountered on the way here.

The two children listened with great interest.

They thought it was very exciting.

Killing tigers, eliminating leopards... and cleverly crossing the 100-meter river and climbing the 10,000-meter mountain...

Of course, there were some exaggerations.

They all wanted to show themselves and boast about their might in front of the proprietress.

The night was getting deeper.

Fifteen people shared a room with two people, and they only slept for one night.

They all went back to their rooms to rest.

The table was very messy, and silver and copper coins were scattered on the table. Li Changxiao collected them and counted them carefully. He didn't see any less, so he put them all into the piggy bank.

The proprietress and Li Changxiao called the cook, and the three of them sat around a table, calculating today's profits.

Not bad.

They sat at three tables with five people each, and each table ordered three meat dishes, two vegetarian dishes, and a vegetable and egg soup.

In total, half a tael of silver per table.

This night, they collected one and a half taels of silver.

In addition, there were some scattered copper coins, which were used to order some side dishes, such as fennel beans, appetizing cold vegetable shreds...

In total, there were one and a half taels of silver, plus more than three hundred copper coins.

Add to that the miscellaneous income in the morning.

This day, the total income was two taels of silver and five hundred and seventy-one copper coins.

Of course... if the cost is deducted, their net profit is only about seven hundred copper coins.

However.

This is just the profit from eating.

The fifteen people also opened eight rooms, and the three people now need to discuss how many copper coins they should charge for each room.

Although the Lailu Inn has been in business for hundreds of years and has had tenants, the pricing system has always been immature and no one has thought about it.

In many cases, the losses even continue.

The previous price was 150 coppers per room for one night.

but…

Not anymore. The price has to be raised.

"One or two?"

"Just charge them a tael!"

Mei Sanniang suggested.

"No, I don't think so." The cook shook his head, "How about this, two hundred coppers per room."

The two looked at Li Changxiao.

Want to see his opinion.

Li Changxiao frowned and thought, "I think it can be higher, two hundred and fifty coppers per room."

The three of them were tugging at each other.

Opinions vary.

In the end, the price of three hundred copper coins per room was quite reasonable.

In addition, you have to charge money to borrow a stable.

One horse received another hundred copper coins.

It all adds up.

The three of them were all happy. The money was quite a lot. In addition to food and drinks, they also earned 1,300 copper coins.

The day is over.

A total of twenty taels of silver and one thousand eight hundred and seventy-one copper coins.

The copper coins used in this piece are red copper coins. One thousand red copper coins are equivalent to one tael of silver.

Mei Sanniang seemed to hear the sound of rushing into the tent, and she giggled so hard that her branches trembled.

A smile also appeared on the cook's cold face.

"Let's have a drink and celebrate!"

Mei Sanniang waved her hand, twisted her waist, walked to the cellar, and fetched a jar of spring and winter plum blossom wine.

The wine was poured into the glass.

The color changes accordingly, sometimes light red, sometimes transparent...

Li Changxiao's pupils shrank and he drank in one gulp.

This is the genuine Fuyao thirty-one famous wine in the world!

It was his first time to taste such jade wine, so he could only say that it must have a reason for its reputation.

This is true for Li Changxiao, who loves drinking.

It's a rare adventure.

"cheers!"

The three of them raised their wine glasses, clinked them together and drank them all in one gulp.

Spring and winter plum-flavor wine actually has another name, called winter death and spring life wine, also called life and death free wine. It may not be the most delicious wine.

But it was the one that best suited Li Changxiao’s appetite.

After being drunk, I feel like I am drifting between life and death, like a dream...

He brewed the "Drunken Life and Dream of Death" wine just to imitate this wine. Now that he drank the original wine, the joy in it was indescribable to outsiders.

The real thing comes out.

Those three people were really drunk.

A deep sleep.
