Li Xiuyuan shook his head, looked at him and smiled lightly: "With the children, how can Sister Hong be tired of selling wine in the store?"

Sister Hong chuckled and said: "The shopkeeper said that after one night, the sign outside the door looked like it had been burned by fire. It looked like a century-old store. It should be your credit, sir, right?"

Li Xiuyuan looked at Hu Ge's dazed look and replied softly: "Yes, I set a fire in the middle of the night to see if this stone can prevent fire."

"You are so generous that you are not afraid of burning down this nice house again."

Hu Ge took the bowl and chopsticks, looked at Li Xiuyuan and laughed: "We will open again in the afternoon, do you want to set off two firecrackers?"

According to what he and Sister Hong wanted to do, they both wanted to set off firecrackers to celebrate.

Unexpectedly, Li Xiuyuan didn't want to show off at all, let alone set off firecrackers. The town had not yet recovered from the pain of banditry.

The shopkeeper and Uncle Liu wanted to leave him out of control, but he didn't want to do that.

Now he looked at the two of them and said quietly: "We are running a small business, there is no need to be so festive, the shopkeepers in this street are watching."

The meaning is obvious, I am just a wine seller, there is no need to make it so grand.

Sister Hong had no choice but to nod and answer: "Can the wine made from sorghum be sold?"

"We won't sell it, unless a merchant passing through the town wants to buy two silver coins per jar. The shopkeeper in the town will only sell black bean wine this year."

After the banditry he had just experienced, he didn't want the shopkeepers and the people in the town to use the life-saving money given by the emperor to drink. If they wanted to drink, they would drink the cheapest.

Sister Hong was stunned and giggled: "This is a price difference of ten times? I told you, sir, you are really cruel."

"Is it cruel?"

Li Xiuyuan glanced at Hu Ge and Sister Hong, and said calmly: "The wine I make from apricot flowers will only be sold next spring, and each jar will cost ten gold coins."

"Sister Hong, if you keep some more and sell them the year after next, that will be fifty gold coins per jar."

Li Xiuyuan said quietly: "Ordinary people can drink the cheapest wine, and passing merchants can drink the most expensive wine. Even if they can't sell it, they won't lose a penny."

From now on, Li Xiuyuan will be like the monk Buli and Yuwen Liuli by the Tongtian River, fighting for a penny.

He can brew the cheapest black bean wine for the people in the small town, and naturally he will also have elixirs that are worth a lot of money.

Hu Ge understood a little after hearing this, and laughed and said: "You don't want the people in the town to spend money randomly, but you want the merchants passing by to spend a lot of money."

Li Xiuyuan nodded: "As long as they need it, I will have a glass of wine worth ten thousand gold."

When he said this, Li Xiuyuan's voice was very soft, without any hint of pride.

Because he knew that no matter how much money he earned in this world, it would eventually be left to Mrs. Liu and Sister Hong, and he and Xiao Hei could not take it away at all.

Sister Hong sighed softly, stroked her chest and said, "It seems that I will be more generous in the future, and I will be the shopkeeper of this apricot garden after all."

Li Xiuyuan was amused and said with a faint smile: "Sister Hong can't just sell wine. It's best to hire two more guys to sell wine and continue brewing at the same time."

"Brother, Xiao Hei is going to starve to death!"

While he was talking, Xiao Hei's yelling voice came from the room, as if he was as weak as if he had been hungry for ten years.

Li Xiuyuan smiled when he heard this: "If you don't wake up, I will almost forget you. Come out and wash your face and eat."

…

Days passed by, and Hua Luoyu should have arrived in southern Xinjiang with Nalan Yu and others, and the town was slowly returning to its normal state.

The vitality of the day.

Li Xiuyuan spent half the day as a teacher in the school giving lectures to the children, and half the day returned to the wine shop to read and write. Occasionally he would sit in the shop.

I brew a pot of tea and wait for the guests to come.

Most of them were when Sister Hong was away, or when Sister Hong went to town to purchase black beans and sorghum.

Finally, Li Xiuyuan bought the courtyard where Hu Ge once lived and spent a month decorating it to store the brewed wine tanks in the future.

Since the water is flowing slowly, Li Xiuyuan taught Sister Hong to place different wine tanks in different rooms. Some wines cannot be sold all the time, and some vintage wines must be kept.

Sister Hong finally understood Li Xiuyuan's painstaking efforts, looked at him and laughed: "In the end, won't the most expensive wine have to be hidden in the space ring?"

"It's okay, I'll give you a few more when the time comes."

Li Xiuyuan thought to himself that you are really a smart guy, and this is where you have been hiding your wine.

Xiaohei and Hu Ge take several children to Houshan Sword Practice every afternoon these days and learn archery.

Watson has already begun to use the iron bow. Although he can only draw one-third of the bow, Hu Ge also wants him to start training himself.

With the help of Li Xiuyuan, Ergou and Xiaolian also succeeded in gathering energy after tempering their bodies three times, and became one of the few monks in the town.

Before the hottest season, the two siblings who were studying in Baiyu City finally returned to the town.

Looking at the brand-new shop, Yuanfang wouldn't even dare to hold Yisheng's hand and walk into her home if Uncle Liu wasn't sitting in the shop.

Sister Hong, who was sitting in the wine shop next door, saw the two siblings from a distance. She quickly ran out and shouted: "Oh, I hope you are back."

After saying that, he pulled the two of them toward the store and shouted: "Sister, come out and see who is back."

Ms. Liu was startled and walked out of the backyard after hearing this. She was sitting in the yard enjoying the cool air on this hot day.

Under the nourishment of Li Xiuyuanling's Dionysus Spring, Mrs. Liu seemed to be twenty years younger now. Yuanfang was in a daze for a moment, and was pulled in by her mother, unable to speak.

It wasn't until the three of them sat down under the shade of the trees in the backyard that Yuanfang asked: "Mom, why are you getting younger and younger? I don't dare to recognize you anymore."

Mrs. Liu sighed and said leisurely: "You are not at home. Something terrible happened here in the spring. If your uncle hadn't come back just in time, you two would never see us again..."

After spending a while, Mrs. Liu told the two siblings what had happened. By this time, Sister Hong had already gone to the front to sell wine.

Yisheng nodded and replied thoughtfully: "No wonder, the two shops are connected into one, and the backyard is also connected. It turns out that my uncle is back? Where are the others?"

"He, he asked the blacksmith to take your brother and sister to practice in the back mountains. Just when you come back, let him think of a way and teach you."

After suffering a painful lesson from the bandits, Ms. Liu no longer objects to her children practicing martial arts.

When Yuanfang heard this, she couldn't help but giggled: "It turns out that the Imperial Master of the Imperial Dynasty is my uncle. I'm afraid you don't know, mother. During the winter, the Imperial City is said to have undergone a surprising change."

The two siblings who are in Baiyu City also have news that Mr. Liu doesn't know.

If there is anyone who still has such ability at the moment, it is naturally the Imperial Master who is legendary among everyone in the dynasty. Since the spring, the Imperial Master has left the imperial city and is hiding in his own home.

Now it's better. Yuanfang, who had long wanted to practice martial arts, finally found a teacher.

As he spoke, he wanted to run out the door, but was held back by Ms. Liu.

He glared at her and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? Go wash up and change some clothes first. Later, I will ask Sister Hong to take you siblings to the town to buy some decent clothes."

"Where did mother get so much money? Don't waste it."

Yuanfang knew that she and her brother had already spent a lot of money in Baiyu City. How could they dare to spend more when they returned home?

Mr. Liu looked at her and shook his head, and said softly: "This is also what your uncle ordered. Everyone in the family has it. Didn't you see that even Uncle Liu bought new clothes?"

Yisheng glanced at his white washed clothes and chuckled, "I can finally buy some new clothes."

After the two siblings washed up, Sister Hong called Wang San to guard the wine shop, and then she led the two of them towards the town.

All the wardrobe arrangements for the family now fell on her.

That night, Watson, who came back from the back mountain, suddenly saw his brother and sister. He was so happy that even Wang Ruyi screamed and yelled at his sister for cakes.

And Li Xiuyuan, who had been preparing for a long time, finally got his wish and allowed the two siblings to experience the feeling of life being worse than death.

Because the two of them were much older than Watson, the elixir Li Xiuyuan used was also a bit more powerful.

Just one night passed, and the two siblings gathered their energy and succeeded.

Yuanfang went straight up to the fifth level of Qi Gathering, and her younger brother Yisheng was also at the fourth level.

Mrs. Liu and Sister Hong were so frightened that they ran to the yard next door to look at Li Yuan and asked if he had made a mistake? How could a child who has not practiced yet be in the middle stage once he gathers his energy?

Li Xiuyuan said calmly: "When my master wife comes back, I will let her take Yuanfang as her apprentice, and Yisheng will continue to follow the blacksmith."

In his opinion, having Hua Luo Yu have another disciple is also a mental training for her.

Mrs. Liu sighed and said leisurely: "These children are all practicing martial arts. Brother, do you have so many resources?"

Sister Hong pulled her and smiled: "Don't be afraid, sir, you have a lot of money, so you won't have to worry."

Even Wang Ruyi is a Qi-gathering monk. Sister Hong often wakes up laughing in her dreams. Who cares how many spiritual stones and gold coins are hidden in her husband's pocket?

Li Xiuyuan smiled and said: "Sister Hong, you can do it too. Why don't you ask my wife to accept one more? She has nothing to do anyway."

Sister Hong shook her head and said with a smile: "I want to do business to support my family, so how can I go to the back mountains like Wang Ruyi?"

Li Xiuyuan sighed and thought, if you practice cultivation, why would you be like Wang Ruyi?

It's just that this is something for later. At the moment, he only needs to slowly change the physique of this family. Whether to practice or not, that is a matter for the future.

I came to the small town to be an ordinary person, and I didn’t want to cause an earth-shattering incident here.

…

The Buddha said that the past is unattainable and that time should be suspended and returned to a certain moment in the past.

In spring in southern Xinjiang, everything in the world wakes up from their dreams. The grass on the grassland is lush and wild flowers are blooming quietly.

A bright moon hung in the sky. At Xu hour, the world became quiet.

There was only one big tent, but the red candles were shining brightly and it was full of joy.
