Chapter 87 Yin Kuang
Gu Qianbei looked in the direction of the sound and saw a young man dressed in a white robe with purple patterns sitting in Cai Po's tea shop.
Both the folding fan in his hand and his clothes gave people a very expensive feeling.
But in the capital city, where wealthy families live everywhere, this doesn't seem to be anything strange.
But the other person was clearly calling her, which made Gu Qianbei feel strange.
When I first arrived in the capital, apart from the people from the number one manor in the world, there were probably very few people who knew me.
But judging from the other person's expression, they clearly knew him.
Was he deliberately waiting for me?
Or was it an unexpected encounter?
Regardless of which one it is, Gu Qianbei cannot simply leave at this moment.
He then walked into the teahouse and sat down in front of the young man.
"Does this young master know me?"
Gu Qianbei cut to the chase and asked directly.
The young master seemed surprised by Gu Qianbei's directness, paused for a moment, and then laughed, "Brother Gu is indeed a remarkable person."
Such a direct question caught me completely off guard.
"Being straightforward can save a lot of trouble. It also allows you to quickly determine whether someone is worth befriending, don't you think?"
"That makes some sense."
The young man smiled slightly, then cupped his hands and said, "My name is Yin Kuang, a local of the capital. I've heard that Brother Gu is participating in the examination for the world's number one winemaker and possesses a variety of fine wines, so I would like to make friends with you."
"Yin frame?"
The name was somewhat unfamiliar, and Gu Qianbei couldn't immediately make any connection to it.
However, the fact that they knew they were participating in the assessment of the number one manor in the world clearly indicates that they have good intelligence capabilities, and the power behind them should not be underestimated.
"Making friends is naturally not a problem. Who would complain about having too many friends?"
Gu Qianbei smiled, but her gaze was still fixed on Yin Kuang.
Yin Kuang didn't care. He waved his fan with his right hand and pointed to a small jar of wine on the table.
"I'm not here to befriend Brother Gu for no reason. This wine is my gift, and it's also a token of my sincerity towards you."
Gu Qianbei looked at the jar of wine with curiosity.
He noticed the jar of wine from the very beginning.
Judging from its appearance alone, this wine is no ordinary wine.
The fact that it has such luxurious packaging shows that this wine is very expensive.
Expensive items are generally of good quality.
As the saying goes, expensive things have only one drawback: they are expensive.
While this statement isn't absolute, it's generally true.
The rain outside intensified, flowing down the roof of the tea shop and forming a curtain of rain, as if cutting the tea shop off from the world.
At this moment, Yin Kuang opened the wine seal, and a rich aroma of wine wafted out.
"Such a strong aroma of liquor, is this... top-quality Qian'an Maotai?"
Gu Qianbei twitched his nose and immediately recognized the famous wine that the aroma represented.
"Indeed, this is the finest Qian'an Maotai. Brother Gu is indeed quite capable; he recognized the name of this liquor from just this aroma."
"I wonder if this jar of wine is enough to show our sincerity?"
"It is indeed a very sincere gesture."
Gu Qianbei smiled slightly and nodded in satisfaction.
This Qian'an Moutai is considered a top-quality liquor in the system's certification, and ordinary people simply cannot access it.
To offer such fine wine is a clear sign of sincerity.
This also indicates that the identity of Yin Kuang in front of us is quite extraordinary.
Being able to obtain wine that ordinary people cannot obtain is itself a demonstration of strength.
"I have already shown my sincerity. I wonder if I could have the chance to taste Brother Gu's Sunflower Sun-Facing Brew?"
I heard that you impressed the number one winery in the world with this wine, which is why you are qualified to participate in the assessment.
I'd really like to try, is that alright?
Knowing even the name of Sunflower Brew, Gu Qianbei began to suspect that Yin Kuang might be from the Dragon Guard Manor.
Did he really come to me just to ask for a drink?
Or is there another purpose?
Gu Qianbei couldn't think of anything for a moment.
"Of course. However, although your wine is good, it can only be exchanged for one cup of Sunflower Brew. More than that won't do."
Yin Kuang raised an eyebrow, not expecting Gu Qianbei to be so stingy.
Could it be that this cup of sunflower-inspired brew is worth a jar of Guizhou Moutai?
He became even more curious.
"it is good."
Seeing that Yin Kuang agreed, Gu Qianbei took off the Cangguang gourd with his left hand, picked up the teacup with his right hand, and poured the sunflower brew into it.
The pale yellow liquor looked crystal clear and quite extraordinary.
Having spent so many days in the Cangguang Gourd, the Sunflower Sun-Facing Brew has become even more intense, and the floral and wine aromas have become increasingly enticing.
Yin Kuang's nose twitched, and the look of interest on his face grew even stronger.
"Indeed excellent wine. Just one whiff is enough to make one unable to resist. It seems I won't lose out on this deal."
Yin Kuang took the teacup from Gu Qianbei, took a small sip, his eyes lit up, and then tilted his head back to drink it all.
"Excellent wine!"
The extremely powerful and yang internal energy circulated within his body, and Yin Kuang's expression changed, but he quickly integrated this internal energy into his dantian.
"This wine can actually increase internal energy? Amazing!"
"It only worked the first time."
Gu Qianbei replied, though he was somewhat surprised.
The young master before me is quite skilled; he actually refined the Sunflower Brew in an instant.
"Since it worked the first time, is it possible to brew a wine that will always work?"
Yin Kuang looked at Gu Qianbei with a hint of eagerness in his eyes.
"Maybe I could, but I can't do it right now."
Gu Qianbei said, half-jokingly.
He couldn't brew a wine that would increase everyone's internal strength, but he himself experienced this passive effect from drinking all wines.
"So there's a chance for the future, right?"
The eagerness in Yin Kuang's eyes did not disappear; instead, he pressed for an answer.
"Even if it exists, the rare and precious materials required are not ordinary. Ultimately, it can only be a luxury enjoyed by a small number of people."
Gu Qianbei's indifferent words shattered Yin Kuang's last bit of greed, ultimately turning into a sigh.
"Yes. That's how it should be, and I should have thought of it long ago. But I couldn't help but still harbor some wishful thinking."
Yin Kuang shook his head helplessly, then picked up a bottle of Guizhou Moutai and poured himself a glass to ease his worries.
But Gu Qianbei snatched the wine jar away, showing no intention of giving it back to him.
Yin Kuang looked at Gu Qianbei in astonishment, not understanding his meaning.
"Since this wine was given to me, it is naturally mine. I had no intention of asking Brother Yin to drink it here."
Seeing Gu Qianbei's possessive attitude towards her food, Yin Kuang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Brother Gu, you...you really are a remarkable person."
The rain lessened, and the curtain of rain hanging from the roof of the tea shop became less dense, allowing the outside world to reappear before their eyes.
"Brother Yin, do you still want to be friends with me?"
Gu Qianbei laughed.
"Of course. I'd like to buy all of your Sunflower Sunflower Wine; the price will definitely satisfy you. I wonder if Brother Gu would be so kind as to grant my wish?"
Gu Qianbei shook his head.
Why?
Yin Kuang was puzzled.
"One of the medicinal herbs used to brew this wine has become extinct, and there is absolutely no possibility that a second jar will ever appear in the world, so I will not sell it."
This cup of wine today is my greatest expression of sincerity.
If Brother Yin were to seek other things, then I could no longer consider you my friend.
Gu Qianbei looked sharply at Yin Kuang, her eyes full of wariness.
