bad, i'm a fool

Chapter 343 Picking Flowers and Sniffing Honey
Han Dongwen turned his head to look, only to find a middle-aged man in rather expensive clothes standing in front of him, about 45 or [-] in age, looking at him with a smile on his face.

He glanced at the man subconsciously, and what caught his eyes was the jasper finger ring in the man's hand, the assorted, reddish-purple sandalwood bracelets, and a mutton fat jade safety sign the size of a palm hanging on his chest, as if It looked like he had just been fished out of a jewelry store.

"We met for the first time, my humble Yang Facai, I came here a bit late today, and the private room is gone, young man, what do you say..."

As Yang Facai spoke, he stretched out a hand to shake without any notice.

Han Dongwen stood up from the teacher's chair, smiled politely and stretched out his hand: "Of course, please sit down, Boss Yang, junior—Junior Chi Hanyang, just feeling a little bored."

Seeing that Han Dongwen had no objections, the waiter waiting at the door heaved a sigh of relief, and greeted him with a smile on his face: "Chi Shaoxia, Boss Yang, thank you for your understanding, Yihonglou will give you two fresh fruits and ice melons." , with a pot of tea, you two can choose whatever you want!"

Yang Facai grinned, and sat firmly on the grand teacher's chair: "Chi Shaoxia, don't be polite to them. The tea in Yihonglou is very good. I have to drink it every time I come. You order what you like!"

Han Dongwen nodded: "Canary buds, are there any?"

"Golden threads... canary buds, there are some, you two wait a moment, the little one will go and brew them for you."

The waiter hesitated for a moment, then nodded and retreated. Han Dongwen sat back on the chair, and Yang Facai stretched out his thumb beside him.

"Chi Shaoxia has good taste. Most people drink tea, and they have only heard of Longjing jasmine and the like. Canary buds are mellow and not tight to the mouth. Although they are not expensive, few people like to drink them. Could it be that Chi Shaoxia? From Bianzhou?"

Han Dongwen was stunned, and replied with a smile: "Haha, Boss Yang is absurd. Chi is not from Bianzhou, but he did taste this tea in Bianzhou. Boss Yang is the one who is well-informed, and the younger generation admires it!"

As soon as the two came back and forth, the rainbow farts had already chatted a lot.

When the tea is brewed, the center of the lobby of Yihong Building is almost ready.

The noisy crowd fell silent, most of the brightly lit lanterns were removed, and the melodious sound of the piano sounded from nowhere, almost attracting everyone's attention to the center of the lobby, waiting to see what kind of stunning scenery will be on stage there .

In the twelve pavilions in the private room, Han Dongwen and Yang Facai sat by the railing, looking down at the lobby, and chatting about something.

"Chi Shaoxia set up this private room early today, so he must have a goal. How about sharing it, so that we don't look at the same good wine?"

Yang Facai asked with a smile.

The good wine he said was naturally not wine, but the liquor license that represented the girl.

"Not really. I just plan to take a look tonight. Hearing what Boss Yang said, he should be a frequent visitor to Yihonglou. He must be very familiar with Yihonglou?" Han Dongwen shook his head lightly.

"Hey, for those who are not familiar with each other, they will become familiar with each other after a few visits, so it's not worth mentioning!"

Yang Facai waved his hand, and laughed: "I'll tell you what Shaoxia Chi said, half of the reason I came to Yihonglou is to let a hundred flowers bloom, and the other half is to do business for myself."

"Business?"

As soon as Han Dongwen showed a questioning expression, Yang Facai's businessman personality came up. He stroked the pile of pearls and jade jewelry hanging around his neck with his fingers: "Look, they are all high-quality jadeites, but they are all found in the market. Unbelievable treasure!"

The pile of jadeite jewelry showed a moist luster under the light of the floor-standing copper lamp. Even though the light was rather dim, it could still be seen that the appearance was indeed extraordinary.

But it is still not as good as the stuff in the palace.

Han Dongwen conceived a shocked look: "Boss Yang is powerful! So many top-notch products are really valuable, but... But how do you do business in Yihonglou?"

Yang Facai smiled: "Young hero doesn't know something, this flower blossoms, what you want is not only money, precious jewelry and so on, of course you can also use it to buy the famous wine of Yihonglou."

As he spoke, he moved closer to Han Dongwen, and made some gestures at the Mingbo gun standing beside him: "Of course other treasures and famous utensils are also available, such as..."

Han Dongwen smiled noncommittally, he didn't intend to sell his self-defense.

After all, Han Dongwen has already made up his mind to stand out as the most annoying customer who only looks at but not buys today.

I really have more than enough appetite and limited purse.

"Boss Yang, I see that the business of Yihonglou is booming. Do you know who their shopkeeper is, so you can introduce me?"

He said this while the iron was hot, and Yang Facai was about to answer, when he heard the silence around him, he swallowed half of the words back into his throat.

Under the stage, the night of a hundred flowers blooming began.

There was a gentle and soft sound of Guqin, and I don't know where someone read a sentence:
"The spring night rises, Yang Liuqing."

Yangliuqing is a good wine from Youzhou. It is clear but not spicy, and has a sweet aftertaste.

A woman in a green veil skirt stepped onto the qin platform lightly with lotus steps, folded her sleeves in front of her, revealing her white arms like lotus root, and began to play the qin.

She is very beautiful, Han Dongwen secretly thinks back to the girl in Yihonglou in Tianying City, I am afraid that only Bu Qianqian can not lose to the first branch of Yihonglou in Haizhou.

"This Yang Liuqing is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and she is very elegant. I heard that her literary talent is not inferior to many people in Haizhou who dance and write. Tsk tsk, it's amazing."

Yang Facai smacked his lips and commented shaking his head.

Han Dongwen only felt that the synchronous comments were a bit amusing like barrage, and he tilted his head and smiled and said, "Since this Yang Liuqing is so outstanding, is Boss Yang going to make a move?"

Yang Facai closed his eyes and shook his head quickly:
"No, no, it's too small, I want a bigger one."

Han Dongwen smiled helplessly, at this moment, the voice that had previously read the introduction sounded again:
"Have a good talk all night, with this jug of fine wine, three gold coins."

This means that the bidding in the audience has started, and the starting price is three gold dollars.

The price is indeed staggering, the market in Skyhawk City can't afford it.

"This wine is delicious, I want it!"

Shouts came from the lobby downstairs, it seemed that Yang Liuqing was indeed the first one to appear on stage, so don't worry about the supporters.

However, after the man shouted three gold coins, Yang Liuqing was still playing the piano, as if he hadn't heard the words.

"Five gold dollars."

There was a price call from another corner, Yang Liuqing on the stage smiled softly and triumphantly, and the voice of the host sounded:
"Flavourful wine, picking flowers and smelling honey, five gold dollars!"

When Han Dongwen heard this, he realized that this place has entered the bidding mode.

"Six!"

It was the voice of the person who spoke first, and it seemed that he was determined to win.

After shouting out the price of the six gold dollars, the venue fell into silence after a moment of uproar.

Six gold dollars, this is undoubtedly a lot of money.

For those who are more financially poor, the yearly expenses may not be as high as Yang Liuqing's asking price for a night of drinking.

"Ding--"

When Han Dongwen was feeling emotional in his heart, he heard a melodious ringing of the bell from the private room next door.

"Bid for the private room, please!"

The host's voice sounded immediately, Han Dongwen paid attention, and heard the footsteps of the buddy outside the door.

He turned slightly sideways and glanced over the screen, and saw that it was indeed a buddy, and took out a small and exquisite jewelry box from the private room next door.

The crowd was silent for a long while amidst the sound of Yang Liuqing's piano, and finally, the host's voice sounded again:

"Flavourful wine, picking flowers and smelling honey, one ghost sea fritillary pearl, eight gold dollars!"

Eight gold dollars!

There was an uproar in the venue, and after confirming that no one would increase the price after a while, Yang Liuqing's song just finished playing.

She bowed slightly and saluted everyone in the hall, then, surrounded by the maids in the building and under the eager eyes of everyone, she walked slowly up the spiral staircase and entered the private room next door to Han Dongwen.

For the next night, the benefactor next door can enjoy the romance with the company of the jealous Yang Liuqing.

"It turned out to be like this..."

Seeing that there were indeed some rare treasures at the bids in the Yihong Building, Han Dongwen muttered to himself, only then did he realize that there was indeed a pair of delicate bells on both sides of the grand master's chair.

Presumably, when the guests in the private room want to sell some treasures, they use this bell to bid, and wait for the Yihonglou people to estimate it.

While thinking about it, he looked towards Yang Facai's direction, wanting to see if he also prepared such a small bell.

But there is no need to look.

The other bell was already tightly held by Yang Facai, and his eyes were also looking at the stage very eagerly.

"The next pot of good wine, Jinsha Niang!"
