We agreed on a famine year, so how come your family has enough rice and wheat flour?

"Old man, I'll come back tomorrow. If all five jars of wine are sold out, then we'll officially sign the contract and start supplying you in large quantities."

Lin Feng left those words behind and then took Song Shun away.

Lin Feng originally thought that the price of this wine was set too high and that it wouldn't sell out so quickly.

However, as Old Man Zeng placed the Pine Dew on his wine stall and opened a jar of wine, its fragrance filled the entire street.

It stirred up the restlessness in the hearts of countless alcoholics!

People of all ages, rich and poor, came to join the fun, and were all astonished by the incredibly clear liquor.

Some people couldn't resist, gritted their teeth, and spent five qian of silver to buy half a jin of pine dew.

Upon tasting it, the man's face flushed red, and he exclaimed in surprise, "Holy crap, this wine is amazing! It must be made with celestial dew!"

"Give me another ten pounds!"

Upon seeing that someone had tasted it, he immediately took out ten taels of silver and bought ten catties of pine dew.

The other drinkers, their mouths watering, reached into their wallets and bought some.

Once you take a bite, you can't stop.

"This is an exceptional wine!"

"I want 10 jin of pine syrup too!"

The drunkards, as if fighting over a peerless beauty, each grabbed their silver and rushed to buy the pine dew.

In less than half a day, all five jars of Pine Dew were sold out!

Some people even wanted to pay money to reserve it.

Old Man Zeng didn't know how much stock Lin Feng had left, so he didn't dare to accept the silver rashly.

Soon, it spread by word of mouth among the drunkards.

Among the many wine connoisseurs in the northern part of the city, none are unaware of the "Songjianlu" (松间露).

However, at the same time, some people began to have wicked ideas and set their sights on Old Man Zeng, wanting to master the brewing process of Pine Dew...

Nangong Mansion.

Lin Feng's third stop in the city was the Nangong residence, where he planned to sell silk and tea to Madam Nangong.

In Qingyang County, he only knew the merchant, Madam Nangong.

Having saved Madam Nangong, he probably wouldn't be tricked.

Lin Feng told the gatekeeper of the Nangong residence that he wanted to see Madam Nangong and asked him to inform her.

The gatekeeper recognized Lin Feng; his wife had given him a magnificent steed from the grasslands, making him a distinguished guest. The gatekeeper immediately turned to inform him.

Soon, a servant came out and respectfully gestured for Lin Feng to enter.

"Young Master Lin, our lady is in the courtyard. Let me take you there!"

Lin Feng, accompanied by Song Shun, followed the servants into the Nangong residence.

Arriving at the lotus pond in the courtyard, a pavilion was built in the center of the pond.

Led by his servant, Lin Feng walked to the pavilion and saw the elegant and graceful Madam Nangong, dressed in a gorgeous gown, sitting in front of a chessboard, playing chess with a middle-aged man with a hooked nose.

"Young Master Lin." Madam Nangong greeted Lin Feng with a gentle smile.

"Come, please sit down!"

Madam Nangong personally poured Lin Feng a cup of hot tea.

"Young Master Lin, let me introduce you. The man sitting across from me is my late husband's younger brother, Nangong Wei."

Nangong Wei looked at Lin Feng with a look of sympathy in his eyes.

A few days ago, we sent people to investigate Lin Feng's background and found out that he was just a hunter from a mountain village.

More than half a month ago, Lin Feng went hunting in the mountains and was trampled on the head and lower body by a group of wild boars.

So his previous worries were unnecessary. His sister-in-law's relationship with Lin Feng was innocent, and not at all what he thought.

Nangong Wei smiled and said, "Young Master Lin, thank you for saving my sister-in-law and niece that day."

"It's nothing," Lin Feng waved his hand.

"Young Master Lin, you must have come to see me about something, right?"

Madam Nangong remembered that Lin Feng had said he would ask her to help with something in a few days.

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Yes, Madam, I have a batch of silk and tea that I wanted to buy from a merchant I know well, so I came to you."

"Oh, I see. I'll take whatever the total value is."

Madam Nangong knew that Lin Feng was not a businessman, but he had a batch of silk and tea that might have been of dubious origin, but she didn't care.

Lin Feng scratched his head. "Madam, this is my first time selling silk and tea. I don't know the prices of these items."

"Then I'll send someone to take a look."

Madam Nangong instructed her maid to summon a steward to the door to inspect the silk and tea that Lin Feng had brought.

"Madam, I have a jar of fine wine here, which I brewed myself."

Lin Feng brought six jars of pine dew into the city. He sold five jars to Old Man Zeng and gave one jar to Lady Nangong.

Song Shun placed the wine jar on the stone table.

"Oh, young master also knows the art of brewing wine?" Madam Nangong was somewhat surprised.

"I know a little bit."

"Then let me see how well the young master has brewed it." Madam Nangong was about to open the jar of wine.

Nangong Wei, however, stuffed Lin Feng's Pine Dew under the stone table.

In his view, what good wine could a hunter in a mountain village make?

"Sister-in-law, let's not drink this wine yet, we're playing chess."

"Young Master Lin, do you know how to play chess?"

Nangong Wei pointed to the chessboard on the table and said to Lin Feng.

Lin Feng looked at the black and white pieces and said, "I know a little bit."

"That's perfect! My sister-in-law and I have just finished our game, so let's play a round together!"

Madam Nangong gave up her seat, allowing Lin Feng and Nangong Wei to sit facing each other.

Perhaps because Madam Nangong had been sitting in that position for a long time, Lin Feng felt a lingering warmth coming up from his buttocks as soon as he sat down.

This feels a little strange...

On the other side, Nangong Wei tidied up the chessboard and then let Lin Feng make the first move with black pieces.

Lin Feng snapped out of his thoughts and began to place his pieces on the chessboard.

After a few moves, Nangong Wei realized that Lin Feng's chess playing was completely haphazard.

Could he be a master?

After Nangong Wei placed a white piece, he suddenly remembered something and said something to the servant beside him.

The servant quickly left, and when he returned, he was carrying a rectangular wooden box.

Nangong Wei opened the wooden box, revealing a precious wild ginseng.

"Young Master Lin, I know that you lost your sexual function because you were trampled by a group of wild boars while hunting in the mountains. So I specially prepared a 30-year-old wild ginseng for you."

"I hope you recover soon. After all, you're only 18, and you have a long life ahead of you."

"This is also on behalf of my sister-in-law to thank you for saving my life."

Lin Feng frowned upon hearing these words.

When he first met Nangong Wei, the latter had actually investigated his background thoroughly!

It seems this guy is hostile towards him.

"Young Master Lin, were you attacked by a group of wild boars?" Madam Nangong asked with a hint of concern.

Lin Feng looked at his wife and said, "That's true."

Then he corrected:

"However, my body has recovered, so I don't need this wild ginseng."

Nangong Wei didn't believe it. After all, men care about their image, especially in front of an incredibly beautiful woman.

"Young Master Lin, your health is of utmost importance. It concerns your future happiness and your ability to continue your family line," Nangong Wei advised.

"There's no need to hide it from us. Just accept this wild ginseng. We have plenty in our household, one more won't make a difference."

Madam Nangong added, "Yes, Young Master Lin, your health is of utmost importance."

"Alright, I'll take it." Lin Feng was both amused and exasperated. He was going to Yong'an Hall later anyway, so he might as well sell it and get some money.

At this moment, the steward who had gone to check on Lin Feng's silk and tea returned and said to Madam Nangong, "Madam, I have calculated the cost of Young Master Lin's batch of goods, which totals 1,500 taels of silver."

Madam Nangong nodded and ordered someone to fetch the silver.

soon.

Lin Feng saw the ingots of silver and, without any hesitation, let Song Shun accept them.

"Young Master Lin, if you have any silk or tea in the future, feel free to bring them over, I will accept them all," Madam Nangong said with a smile.

"Alright, I thank you, Madam." Lin Feng bowed, then placed a black piece on the chessboard, a smile on his face, and looked at Nangong Wei.

"You lost!"

"Shunzi, we're leaving." Lin Feng didn't linger; after finishing the game, he left with Song Shun.

Nangong Wei was puzzled. When did he become so bad at beating even a hunter from a mountain village? However, when he saw the position where Lin Feng placed his last black piece, Nangong Wei's lips twitched.

"How can this guy say I lost just because he connected five black stones in a line? Does he even know how to play Go?!"

Nangong Wei scolded Lin Feng for pretending to know what he didn't.

He deserved to lose his masculinity.

Nangong Wei remembered that Lin Feng had also sent a jar of wine, and he thought he might as well show off his knowledge of wine in front of his sister-in-law.

The wine jar was placed back on the stone table.

Upon opening, a rich aroma of wine wafts out.

"It smells so good!" Madam Nangong's phoenix eyes lit up slightly.

Unexpectedly, the wine brewed by Lin Feng is quite extraordinary.

And it's very clear, just like spring water!

Lady Nangong had never seen such clear wine before.

"Could it be mixed with spring water? Is this wine even drinkable?"

Nangong Wei looked disgusted, picked up the wine jar, and filled the wine cup.

He raised his glass and downed it in one gulp.

however.

The moment the wine touched his throat, Nangong Wei's face turned as red as if it were on fire.

The next moment, I felt a heavy punch hit the back of my head!

Swaying unsteadily, Nangong Wei tried to steady himself, lest he fall!

But in the end, he couldn't hold on any longer. Nangong Wei collapsed to the ground with a thud and passed out drunk.

Seeing Nangong Wei's drunken appearance, Madam Nangong's phoenix eyes were filled with disbelief. Just one cup had made a man who often drank alcohol pass out.

Lady Nangong summoned two servants to help Nangong Wei away.

She examined the incredibly clear liquid in the wine jar.

Then he asked someone to bring a clean wine glass and poured some wine into it.

I took a small sip.

"This liquor is so strong, it feels like drinking a knife!"

Lady Nangong was extremely surprised.

She only took a sip, and even she couldn't resist; her beautiful face turned quite rosy.

"It seems Young Master Lin is even more mysterious than I imagined!"

Madam Nangong felt as if she had discovered an undiscovered treasure, and her mind was filled with thoughts of Lin Feng.

Another thunderous roar, and another exceptionally clear and potent liquor...

Besides admiring him, Madam Nangong was even more curious about Lin Feng!

Suddenly, Madam Nangong had an idea and began to think of partnering with Lin Feng to run a winery.
