Creation Color Master

Piaoxianglou, located on Shili Street, is the most famous restaurant in Yong'an Town. Its cuisine is a local specialty.

At this time, the boss of the restaurant glanced at a private room on the third floor from time to time. As his eyes turned, the boss waved to the manager beside him.

The kind-looking steward came up to the boss and said calmly, "Boss, what can I do for you?"

The boss raised his hand and pointed to the standard room where Chu Mo and the others were, and said, "Go to the wine cellar in the backyard, take out a jar of my treasured Drunken Spirit Brew and give it to the adults. Tell them that the boss is treating them to a free drink."

"Also, you must be very careful not to annoy the adults."

The steward understood and went straight to the backyard.

At this time, everyone was gathered in the private room. The table was filled with the restaurant's signature dishes such as steamed local chicken, Yunmeng meat wrapped with flowers, soup-bathed embroidered balls, Eight Immortals plate, and longevity porridge, which were all delicious.

Wang Hong smiled and said, "I am able to taste such delicious food today thanks to the great blessings of the adults. It is worthy of being the signature dish of Piaoxianglou. Just looking at it makes people drool."

Zhou Wenlong pointed at Wang Hong and said, "I don't believe what you said. Let me say that you are the most qualified person in Yong'an Town to enter Piaoxianglou, but you have always been frugal. I'm afraid you want to take this opportunity to rip off my master."

Wang Hong said: "Such a meal requires ten taels of gold, but I can't bear to spend it."

Lin Mingwei and Yao Guangxiao on the side were tasting another kind of spiritual brew that Chu Mo took out, called Hantu wine.

This wine corresponds to the Lesser and Greater Cold in the 24 solar terms, and is suitable for drinking right now.

Wang Hong picked up a cup of Hantu wine, took a sip, and his eyes lit up immediately. He said, "Good wine. This wine is comparable to the imperial tribute wine Chang'anzui."

Lin Mingwei smiled and said, "Not only that, the person who brewed this wine probably also understands pharmacology. Drinking this wine in moderation at this time seems to be more beneficial to cultivation."

Chu Mo heard this, glanced at Lin Mingwei, nodded and said: "Yes, this wine is brewed by Yan Yonghe. The twelve kinds of spirit wine correspond to the twenty-four solar terms, but it is extremely mysterious. It is said that if you go through a year, the twelve kinds of spirit wine corresponding to the seasons will produce unexpected things."

Wang Hong said: "This wine was made by Doctor Yan. I was wondering where it came from."

"Da-da-da"

There was a slight knock on the door and everyone paused and looked towards the door.

Cao Shen stood up and opened the door, only to see the restaurant's manager standing in front of it.

The steward saw the door open and explained with a smile: "My lords, my boss is worried that you don't have enough wine, so he ordered me to bring up a jar of wine."

"This wine was given by the boss for free, saying it's a thank you for taking care of the restaurant's business."

Cao Shen did not refuse and took it directly.

Zhou Wenlong said, "The food in your restaurant is well-deserved. Every dish is to our liking. We would like to thank your boss for the wine and drinks. We will accept them."

The purpose was accomplished, and the steward did not dare to disturb them, and left in a hurry.

The steward had not expected that the high and mighty governor would be so easy-going and speak so politely. Being able to talk to the governor gave him something to brag about.

Just as the manager was happily daydreaming, Liu Yuzhou walked in with three guards.

Liu Yuzhou, with an arrogant and domineering demeanor, came to the steward and said, "Are you the owner of the restaurant? Ask your boss to come out and see me."

Liu Yuzhou said this with a hint of command in his voice, leaving no room for doubt.

The manager frowned and looked the visitor up and down carefully. Although he was very disgusted, he still called his boss.

The boss came from the backyard. He knew that the visitor had bad intentions, but he still showed his hospitality. He was the first to clasp his fists and said, "Dear guests, what do you want from me?"

Liu Yuzhou gave the restaurant owner a mocking look and said, "Boss, Chen Gongci was eating at your restaurant. Where is he now?"

The boss glanced at a few people without leaving any trace, especially the guards behind him. It can be seen that each of them has an extraordinary demeanor. The boss, who understood in his heart, smiled apologetically and said, "Sorry, sir, this is the guest's privacy, I'm sorry I can't tell you."

Liu Yuzhou seemed to have guessed it long ago. He took a few steps forward and faced the boss. He said, "Boss, a man who knows the times is a hero. Do you know the Liu family in Qinghe County? My uncle is the Minister of Justice Zhou Changqing, and my cousin is the wife of General Hu Xiao. If you know what's good for you, you'd better tell me. You will get benefits when the time comes. Otherwise, your restaurant will be demolished."

When the boss heard the background of the visitor, he was very shocked. He had heard of the reputation of the Money Chamber of Commerce.

Thinking of the gentle governor, the restaurant owner believed that he would understand him, so he pointed to the private room upstairs.

In the private room, everyone was smiling and drinking and chatting happily.

Zhou Wenlong and Lin Mingwei looked at each other, and it was obvious that they both sensed something.

Lin Mingwei said to Chu Mo: "My Lord, some people are coming up from downstairs. One of them has a good cultivation base. He should be coming for us."

Chu Mo immediately became interested. No matter what, since the person was allowed to pass by Li Ru who was hiding in the dark, it seemed that he had no ill intentions.

Soon, the door of the private room was knocked again.

"Liu Yuzhou from the Jinqian Merchants Guild has come to pay his respects to the Governor. I beg you to show yourself to see me."

"squeak"

The door was opened by Yang Jiye. Seeing the dozen people sitting in the room, Liu Yuzhou did not look around. Instead, he bowed and saluted to Chen Gong very reservedly and said, "Liu Yuzhou of the Qinghe Liu family greets the governor and all the gentlemen."

Chen Gong immediately put down the wine glass in his hand and said softly: "I know you, the Qinghe Liu family, one of the few merchant families in Haozhou, and now it can be regarded as a famous family in the local area. You are Liu Feng's youngest son, right?"

Liu Yuzhou's eyes flashed with shock, and he said in a more respectful tone: "I didn't expect that you would know me. I am really flattered."

When Chen Gong recognized the people from Qinghe Liu family, he knew clearly in his mind. He had met Liu Feng when he first took office, so they could be considered to have met each other once.

Seeing that Chen Gong did not answer, Liu Yuzhou continued, "Sir, my father said that he was very sorry for our hasty farewell that day. He heard that you were here to watch the New Year's opera two days ago, but it is almost the end of the year and the family's Chamber of Commerce is busy, so he could only ask me to come and visit you."

Chen Gong smiled slightly when he heard this and said, "Please ask my father to take care of Liu Feng for me."

Seeing this, Liu Yuzhou said softly, "I will definitely convey your words. I will not disturb you while you are eating. Goodbye."

After leaving the private room, the guards guarding the door came over to greet him immediately.

One of them asked, "Master, how is the situation? Did the governor accept the gift you prepared?"

Liu Yuzhou walked out while waiting for the person who was talking, "Can't you use your brain? There are so many people in the room, can you just talk about giving gifts whenever you want?"

"You are giving gifts in front of so many people. Do you want Master Chen Gong to accept them or not? There are so many people around, and rumors will spread. How will others see you then?"

"Let's find a place to sit down and wait. Isn't it still early? There will definitely be a chance to deliver the gift."

Liu Yuzhou and his group walked out of the restaurant muttering to each other, but they did not notice a figure passing by them and entering the restaurant.

Only Liu Yuzhou's guard seemed to sense something and turned around to take a look.
