Opening a Tavern in the Tang Dynasty

The sun was scorching the earth. Yuyu looked at the few bottles of herbal tea left in the shop and thought to herself that she should make some more. "Mom, let's make some more herbal tea. We can keep some for ourselves and give some to the emperor."

Xiaoyu came over and nodded: "Yes, yes, Cheng Chumo, Qin Huaidao and the others should also send some."

Yu Yu scooped out some spiritual spring water and drinks from the space, and Xiao Yu and Li Hao also came over to help pour the spiritual spring water into the drinks.

Xiaoyu put away the 20 bottles of herbal tea she had made: "Okay, the emperor should be ready to come over here after he finishes selling the herbal tea."

Yuyu looked at the crystal clear bottle, the tea had a cool color, "Gudong, I haven't tasted this cool tea yet, but we have spiritual spring water to drink, so I'll keep six bottles for myself."

Li Shimin had already sold all the cool tea in the palace to wealthy merchants and ministers. When he wanted to try some, he found that there was not a single bottle left. "How could there be no more? Of course, I sold it all and turned it into money."

He was not upset, but became more interested in this refreshing tea: "Let's go to Zuixianlou to see if there is any more."

"Come here!" Li Shimin called his attendants, "Prepare the money, I need to leave the palace."

The attendant took the order and left. After a while, he prepared the property. Li Shimin led his men straight to Zuixianlou.

When they arrived at the store, Yuyu and the others hurriedly saluted: "The emperor is here."

Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "I came here today to discuss this matter. The herbal tea in my palace has been distributed. Such a wonderful thing cannot be cut off. I wonder if there is any more of this herbal tea?"

"By the way, I agreed to split the money with you 50-50. This is silver."

When Yuyu and the others heard this, they were surprised and thanked him quickly: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Li Shimin looked at Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao again, his expression solemn. "Cheng Chumo, Qin Huaidao, I order the two of you to stay at Zuixianlou from today onwards to ensure its safety."

"This Zuixianlou has a lot of traffic, and it affects the stability of the capital. We must not be careless."

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao responded in unison: "Your Majesty, rest assured, I will definitely fulfill my mission!"

Li Shimin walked into the tavern and asked anxiously, "Is there any more herbal tea?"

Xiaoyu smiled and replied, "Your Majesty, I just made some."

Yuyu quickly picked up twelve bottles of herbal tea and handed them to Li Shimin: "This is the newly made herbal tea, Your Majesty, please try it."

Li Shimin was delighted: "Haha, you are so thoughtful."

He originally thought that the herbal tea was sold out and he didn't keep any for himself, but he didn't expect: Hahaha, he kept them and didn't sell them.

Li Hao also took two bottles from the shelf and handed them to Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao respectively, saying, "Hey, you two, this is a little gift from us."

Cheng Chumo laughed heartily and said, "Thank you, Brother Li Hao. I heard your herbal tea is amazing."

Qin Huaidao also clasped his fists and bowed: "Thank you very much, this tea has helped me get rid of most of the summer heat, and I feel refreshed."

Yuyu smiled and said, "Haha, no way. The emperor is working for the country and the people. What does this little refreshing tea mean to him?"

Xiaoyu nodded. "It's a scorching summer day, and the Emperor is very busy dealing with matters big and small. Drinking this tea can help cool down the heat. It can be considered as a small contribution I can make for the Tang Dynasty."

Li Hao also echoed: "Yes, Your Majesty's hard work is seen by me. This tea is just a token of my appreciation. I only hope it can bring a little coolness to Your Majesty."

Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao smiled at each other after hearing this.

Li Shimin nodded slightly and gestured to the attendant behind him. The attendant respectfully presented a box of silver. [Open]

Li Shimin said: "By the way, I came here because of the silver I gave you as a share. Take a look."

Yuyu and the others took a closer look, their eyes full of surprise. Xiaoyu couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, so many!"

Li Hao was also a little surprised: "Your Majesty, this..."

Li Shimin smiled and said, "Those herbal teas were sold to wealthy merchants for fifty thousand silver coins a bottle. I promised to split the profits with you fifty-fifty, so this is what you deserve."

Yuyu quickly said, "Your Majesty is wise and wise. I am truly grateful to you."

Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "This is what you deserve. Your refreshing tea is a good thing. It has helped me relieve a lot of the summer heat. This is what you deserve in return."

The people coming and going in front of Zuixian Tower:

"Have you heard? Cheng Chumo and Qin Huaidao will be guarding here. From now on, Zuixianlou will be as impregnable as a rock!" A diner in a brocade robe said excitedly.

"Of course not. These two generals are highly skilled in martial arts. With them around, no evil spirits dare to cause trouble." An old man beside him nodded, twirling his beard.

"I heard that Cheng Chumo is extremely strong and can wield an axe with great vigor. Qin Huaidao is also very capable. With them here to protect us, we can drink and eat here with peace of mind!" A young scholar also joined the discussion.

"Yes, the emperor has made such arrangements, which shows that he attaches great importance to Zuixianlou. It seems that this place will be even more lively in the future!"

Cheng Mansion

Hua Da Jiao frowned and said with a worried look on her face, "The Emperor wants to leave Chu Mo in Zuixianlou to protect its safety. Cheng Yaojin, aren't you worried? There are so many people in that place. What if something goes wrong?"

Cheng Yaojin smiled nonchalantly and patted Hua Da Jiao on the shoulder: "Madam, you can rest assured. Don't you know what our son is capable of?"

"With him guarding it, we will definitely be able to keep Zuixianlou safe. This is the emperor's trust and the honor of our Cheng family."

Hua Da Jiao glared at Cheng Yaojin and said dissatisfiedly, "You are so careless. If anything goes wrong, I will never forgive you."

Cheng Yaojin patted his chest loudly and said, "Madam, don't worry. Our son is very skilled in martial arts."

"Besides, isn't Qin Huaidao accompanying him? If they join forces, what danger can't they handle?"

Hua Da Jiao snorted, but his expression also relaxed a little: "Humph, but that's true, who dares to cause trouble?"

Inside the Qin residence, Qin Qiong frowned and said seriously, "Huai Dao has been assigned by the Emperor to guard Zuixian Tower. This is a heavy responsibility. Zuixian Tower is a hodgepodge of people, and we cannot afford to slack off even a little."

"Although this is the emperor's trust in him, it is also a big challenge. I really hope this kid doesn't make any mistakes."

The old butler beside him bowed slightly and said comfortingly, "Master, it won't happen. The young master is a skilled martial artist, and with General Cheng by his side, he will definitely be able to protect Zuixianlou."

"Besides, the young master has always been thoughtful and prudent in his work. He will definitely live up to the emperor's grace this time."

Qin Qiong nodded slightly, a hint of worry still in his eyes: "I hope so. This responsibility of protection is of great importance and cannot be lost."

He sighed slightly, a hint of relief in his eyes: "I hope so. This is better than him going everywhere. He has no fixed purpose all day long. He is either sparring with others or traveling."
