Entering Chang'an at noon, Shi Jin asked Wang Si to take him to the largest restaurant in the city, first to have something to eat, and second to look for an opportunity to sell wine.
"Sir, this is the largest restaurant in Chang'an."
Wang Si led Shi Jin to a restaurant and said.
"Oh, Furong Building.
The name is pretty good.
I don't know what it's like.
Wang Si, have you been here before?"
Shi Jin looked at the three-story brick and wood structure restaurant in front of him and thought: "Not bad, compared with the surrounding buildings. , that’s really very noble.”
"Back to the owner, I used to be from a poor family.
I didn't have the money to come here.
I just came here when I was shopping.
I heard people said that this building is the best in Chang'an," Wang Si replied.
"Then we'll have a meal here and sell the wine together."
After speaking, Shi Jin pulled Wang Si into the restaurant.
After entering Furong Building, Shi Jin and his party went up to the third floor under the leadership of the waiter.
It was dinner time, and the third floor was very lively.
Shi Jin opened two tables at the entrance of the stairs.
Not to mention, the cooking skills in this restaurant are pretty good.
Although it is not as good as our own Fuchun Restaurant, the food is still good.
After eating, Wang Si shouted: "Waiter, check out."
The waiter rushed over, quickly counted the food and wine on the two tables, and shouted loudly: "Sir, the total of the wine and food is three to two hundred and forty yuan."
Wang Si took out four taels of silver and threw it on the table, saying, "It's not expensive.
Here, four taels of silver.
The more you get, the more you get."
The waiter was overjoyed and said quickly: "Thank you for the reward."
However, before the waiter could pick up the silver on the table.
Wang Si shouted: "It's just a dish, it's just that your wine makes us very unhappy.
But what do you think?"
The waiter was stunned when he heard it, but he didn't dare to neglect it.
The waiter smiled and said cautiously: "Sir, the Yu Hu Chun wine we have here is the best in Chang'an."
"Don't bother calling the shopkeeper."
Wang Si slapped the table and shouted.
The waiter knew that something was wrong, and thought: Come on, we have met a difficult customer, and the reward will most likely be wasted.
The waiter said hurriedly: "Don't be angry, gentlemen.
I will call the shopkeeper here."
Wang Si waved his hand and shouted: "Hurry up and go" Hearing the shouts, the shopkeeper, who had been taking care of business in the restaurant, hurried upstairs.
"What's the fuss about?"
"Shopkeeper, there are two groups of people who feel that the wine is not good after eating.
Who doesn't know that the Yuhuchun in our restaurant is fine wine.
They are obviously here to cause trouble."
The waiter ran to the shopkeeper and bowed.
The shopkeeper ignored him and said to Shi Jin: "My boss is not here, so I am the shopkeeper of this shop.
I don't know what you two are doing."
Seeing that the old man was polite, Shi Jin immediately replied: "Your wine is bland and tasteless, and I feel very unhappy after drinking it."
The shopkeeper cupped his hands and shouted, "Sir, don't be impatient.

My wine is the best in Chang'an.
Who doesn't know who doesn't?"
Shi Jin shouted, "Really?
Wang Si brings some wine."
Wang Si immediately brought up a jar of wine.
Wang Si immediately moved the wine jar to Zhuo, and Shi Jin pointed at the wine jar and said, "Shopkeeper, you should also try my wine."
The shopkeeper saw Wang Si taking out the wine jar.
He was so sophisticated that he still didn't understand what the group in front of him was doing.
The shopkeeper's eyes were full of disdain and he said, "Sir, we already have high-quality wine here.
You'd better go elsewhere to sell it."
Seeing that the shopkeeper didn't even give him a chance to taste the roasted knives, Shi Jin immediately became anxious.
How can you let others know the taste of this wine without even tasting it?
Shi Jin rolled his eyes and thought of the sales techniques used by great men.
Shi Jin immediately pushed the wine jar off the table with one palm. bump The twenty-pound jar shattered on the floor.
The strong liquor flowed out, and suddenly the whole room was filled with the strong aroma of alcohol.
Some drunkards could not help but take a few deep breaths when they smelled the aroma of wine, trying to inhale all the aroma into their lungs.
Many people's throats were itchy, their eyes were red, and they were greedy.
They wanted to kneel down on the ground and drink more wine on the ground.
A few of them were smarter.
After hearing the previous conversation between Shi Jin and the shopkeeper, they immediately shouted, "Do you still have such wine?"
Shi Jin nodded and said: "Of course, my dear friend, do you want to buy a jar and try it?"
"How much" "20 taels" After hearing Shi Jin say that a jar of wine costs 20 taels, countless people took a deep breath.
During the reign of Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty, one stone of grain cost about 1,000 copper coins.
This jar weighed only 20 kilograms, but it cost 20 taels of silver.
One tael per pound, this is simply too expensive And I don’t even know if the wine tastes good or not.
Spending 20 taels on a jar of wine is a bit risky.
The person who inquired at the exit just now asked, "Can I buy 2 taels to try first?"
"Okay, 125 Wen" When the man heard this, he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Okay, then two taels."
As soon as Shi Jin received the money, Wang Si opened the mud seal, poured out 2 taels with a bamboo spoon, and put it in a porcelain bowl.
The man hurriedly picked up the bowl, held it under his nose, smelled it deeply, and then took a sip.
Suddenly, a series of heart-wrenching coughs came from his mouth.
After taking a long breath, he shouted, "Good wine!"
As soon as he finished shouting, he couldn't wait to shout, "Give me a jar" When Shi Jin heard this, he thought to himself: Good guy, this guy is really timely rain and Sai Mengchang.
Now it is difficult for my wine to sell well.
Sure enough, when this guy shouted out the good wine, many people present shouted, "Give me a pound."
"I want half a catty" "I want a jar" Wang Si collected the money while pouring wine for those who bought wine.
Shi Jin patted the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, are you sure you don't want to buy my wine now?"
The shopkeeper looked at the diners rushing to buy, then he sobered up, turned around and said: "Huzi, call the boss quickly, there is good wine."
Then he bowed to Shi Jin and said, "Please wait a moment, everyone.
This wine is too expensive and I can't make the decision.
Please go sit in the inner courtyard for a while.
My boss will be here soon."
Shi Jin and others were let into the inner court.
Not long after, the waiter led a thin man in silk and satin.
As soon as this person entered the room, he raised his hands to Shi Jin and said, "I am Wang Gui, the owner of this shop.

I didn't know that the distinguished guest was coming, so I didn't welcome him from afar.
I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Seeing his polite words, Shi Jin returned the favor.
Zhang Cheng then said: "I heard from the waiter that our guest has some liquor that he wants to sell.
Can you let me taste it?"
"Okay, no problem."
He casually handed over an unsealed jar of wine.
Wang Gui took it and poured out a glass with his own spoon.
After drinking it in one sip, he shouted for a long time, "Good wine, good wine.
I don't know your surnames, where you live, and where you come from."
"My surname is Shi, from Shijiazhuang, Huayin," Shi Jin replied.
Wang Gui cupped his hands and said, "Oh, it turns out that it's Huayin Shiyuan, and your store wants to subscribe to this strong wine from your house every month.
A jar of 7 taels, I don't know how."
Shi Jin laughed loudly when he heard this and said, "Boss Wang is very clever.
He buys for 7 taels and sells for more than ten taels.
Every time he goes in and out, he makes a few taels."
When Wang Gui heard Shi Jin's slightly sarcastic words, he said nonchalantly, "Besides the historian, you also need to know that there are risks when we buy these wines.
If the sales are not good, it will be in our own hands.
And it's so I don’t know how long the wine will be sold, so the risk is quite high.”
Of course, Shi Jin couldn't believe what Wang Gui said.
How could Shi Jin not know how much northerners liked this strong drink?
It's just to grab time, and I don't want to waste time building sales channels.
Otherwise, why would Shi Jin be willing to sell wine to your restaurant?
He can sell it even if he sells it for twenty or thirty taels.
Shi Jin smiled and said, "Boss Wang, we are wise people and don't tell secrets.
The price is 10 taels per jar.
If Boss Wang is not willing, then Shi will find another one."
Wang Gui rolled his eyes when he heard it, and said as if reluctantly, "Hey, brother Wei is also greedy for the things in this cup, so he put it aside, since the historian is like this, then Wang has no choice but to bear the pain and buy it. " Shi Jin ignored Wang Gui's complaints and said: "It's a pleasure to cooperate."
Wang Gui didn't hear this sentence, but he thought it was good after thinking about it.
He hurriedly handed over his hands and said, "It's a pleasure to cooperate."
The sale of spirits was finally opened, and Shi Jin breathed a sigh of relief.
This batch of wine was just a test sample and only so much was distilled in a hurry.
If you go back and buy more grain and rice wine, you will definitely be able to make more spirits.
Shi Jin has already thought about the good day when he will make a lot of money.
After keeping the money well, Shi Jin waved his hand and said, "Let's go, let's have a good celebration":
