Quick Wear: The Wronged One Becomes Rebellious

The tone, which was different from the sonorous voice of his personal guards that he was accustomed to, immediately drew back the attention of the thoughtful General Xiao.

"Thanks a lot!"

Cai Qing was overjoyed, "It's not hard. It's Cai Qing's blessing to serve the general."

General Xiao waved his hand and said, "I don't need anyone to serve me here. Please go down first!"

Cai Qing did not dare to disturb the general and quickly left the tent, leaving General Xiao still sitting upright on the armchair without moving.

But this time his eyes fell on the steaming cup, staring at it for a long time, until the tea in the cup completely lost its heat and became as cold as the snow outside.

The guards standing guard outside the big tent seemed to hear a barely perceptible sigh from inside. Or they seemed to hear nothing, except that the strong wind and snow covered up many sounds.

The number of guests in the tavern increased from three to five, and they were listening with great interest when they saw the folding fan in the storyteller's hand suddenly open, fan twice, then close again, and hit the palm of his left hand with a snap.

"Everyone, to know what happens next, please listen to the next episode!"

After a brief silence, the hall suddenly started shouting.

"Hey, I'm just listening to this, why don't you say anything more? Go on."

"That's right. We still need to listen to what happens next. The Zhou Kingdom must be sending troops. How did General Xiao resist the enemy?"

"I heard that General Xiao risked being demoted by the king to fight the war. I don't know what happened in between."

"I know this. Later, Zhou Kingdom joined forces with Canglan Kingdom to attack our Taiyin City."

"Oh, if Taiyin Mountain is lost, then can they march straight in and plunder our people?"

When someone saw Qi Dashan standing up and leaving with his cane without saying a word, they hurriedly called out, "Hey, storyteller, when will you continue your story about the battle of Mount Taiyin that you haven't finished telling today?"

Qi Dashan smiled and said, "I will have to sort out the follow-up after I go back before I can tell you all about it."

"Can you give me a specific time?"

Qi Dashan bowed to the enthusiastic guests and said, "I will try to come to Mengji Tavern as soon as possible. I will probably be able to come the day after tomorrow. I hope you will come and listen to my chat then!"

Qi Dashan was surrounded by the crowd and was asked several questions before he was able to escape and return to the backyard.

Gu Li was already waiting for him in the side room with wine.

Seeing that the person had returned, Gu Li smiled and said, "Is it over? How do you feel?"

Gu Li poured a glass of wine for Qi Dashan, pushed it to the seat opposite her, and motioned for him to sit down.

In the lobby, Qi Dashan could still hold himself together, but once he stepped into the backyard, he could no longer hold back his grinning.

I didn't expect that everyone liked listening to his stories so much.

"It's okay, it's okay. What do you think of my performance, Miss Meng?" I don't know whether I have met Miss Meng's requirements.

Gu Li stood behind the cotton curtain and listened to everything. Qi Dashan's performance exceeded her expectations.

It flows smoothly without any stuttering.

Gu Li did not deny that this was also due to the fact that Qi Dashan himself was a participant in the Battle of Taiyin Mountain, but it also showed that his storytelling ability was not bad.

If he tells the story a few more times, his performance will be better.

"You said it very well. I have already prepared the next volume. We can discuss it together after we return!"

"Okay, okay." Qi Dashan was so excited that he didn't even drink the warm wine. He stood up and prepared to go back.

Gu Li smiled and said, "Don't worry, let's talk about our cooperation contract first!"

Qi Dashan was stunned. At this time, Jiang Zhuo also came in.

He deliberately stayed in the lobby to observe the guests who were listening to the storytelling today. Not only did they sit together to discuss the content of today's storytelling, but they also made appointments to come again tomorrow and the day after tomorrow.

It seems that the wine shop business will be booming soon.

"First of all, from now on, Brother Dashan, you don't have to call me Miss Meng anymore. It's too formal. Just call me A-Yao like you do, Big Brother."

"Okay, listen to A Yao."

Jiang Zhuo frowned slightly. There was another person calling her A Yao.

"If Dashan agrees to tell stories in my tavern, I will provide accommodation and meals. At present, I don't know whether the business will be boosted, so I can only pay you one guan of money a month. If the business of the tavern improves in the future, I will increase the salary."

Qi Dashan was overjoyed. He had come out to find a job. It was already great to get Jiang Zhuo's help. He couldn't live in Jiang's house forever.

Especially since Jiang Zhuo will be leaving home soon, he can't stay there anymore.

Accommodation and food were big problems, and Gu Li solved them all for him.

As for how much the reward is, he doesn't care. It's good enough to have enough food to eat during the day and sleep well at night.

Qi Dashan wanted to say that Gu Li gave too much, but Jiang Zhuo interrupted him and accepted the reward offered by Gu Li on his behalf.

"You deserve it." Jiang Zhuo sat down next to Qi Dashan, "You can earn more in the future."

Qi Dashan looked up and saw Gu Li also smiling in agreement. He smiled with relief, "Okay, I'll work hard since A Yao thinks highly of me!"

Qi Dashan couldn't wait to go back and listen to Gu Li's explanation of the second volume of the Battle of Taiyin Mountain. Gu Li was a little helpless, but not in a hurry.

Some things will produce unexpected results if you give them more time to ferment.

"We won our first battle today, so we must celebrate. Let's go to Yulong Building for a big meal at noon today!"

"Okay, I'll treat you!" Jiang Zhuo was also happy that his brother had a job that could support himself. He also helped A Yao solve a big problem.

Two days later, Qi Dashan came to Mengji Tavern again.

This time he even brought his own luggage with him, and from today on he would live in the backyard of the tavern.

Ever since a storyteller came to Mengji Tavern the day before yesterday, the business of the tavern has increased several times. Even if the storyteller doesn't come again, everyone likes to gather with friends in the tavern to talk about the Battle of Taiyin Mountain that shocked the whole country.

The rice wine at Mengji Wine Shop was almost sold out. Manager Gao was so busy that he was sweating all day long. He had never been so busy since he took over the wine shop.

With the current market conditions, Manager Gao was worried that the wine in the cellar would be sold out soon. He told the young lady about this, and she said that if there was not enough wine, she could go to other places to buy it, and she must have enough stock.

Her rice wine is not very good to begin with, and Gu Li’s main focus is on selling stories.

What she has to do now is to make Mengji Tavern famous.

Later, she may want to transform and add catering, or simply change it into a teahouse. In short, she will take it one step at a time.

Gu Li, who doesn't have much ambition, is very Buddhist when it comes to her career.

This time Jiang Zhuo couldn't blend into the crowd or create a proper atmosphere. Every table in the previously spacious lobby was filled with people.

Someone noticed the man with crutches entering Mengji Tavern, and many people immediately followed him into the lobby. Word spread, and soon the tavern was full.
