After telling the little girl that he was going to get some wine, Yun Su carried the bottle and walked out comfortably. Soon, he arrived at Wenqu Building and was about to get some wine from the counter when he met an acquaintance.
Minister Liu was wearing a reddish-brown-colored robe when the shopkeeper bowed and sent him to the door. When he looked up, he immediately shuddered. Wasn't that the Mr. Su he had been looking for?
His son and daughter-in-law went home and told them about meeting Mr. Su. After asking around, they found out that Yun Su had once brought his family to the Wenqu Building for a meal with the teachers of the academy. They even found out that he lived in Qingfeng Small Building.
After all, it was very difficult to find another elegant and handsome young man wandering around with five children in Yuyang City. He was too eye-catching.
Over the past two days, Minister Liu did not even care about his business but he did not dare to visit rashly. He wandered around the various industries in the city every day, focusing on the Wenqu Building and the Yuyang Academy. He only hoped to meet this great benefactor who helped his family greatly.
Today, he even personally went to the Wenqu Restaurant and reminded the shopkeeper that if Mr. Su came again, he had to serve him well and put his bill under his name.
The longevity tablet at home had already been set up. When they were paying their respects and offering incense, they recalled everything that had happened previously and felt that it was even more difficult to meet someone like him. Meeting Mr. Su was simply a blessing that the Liu family had to burn incense for several lifetimes to obtain.
Just thinking about it, if the Liu family lost their bloodline in his hands, how could he dare to meet their ancestors in the underworld after death?
The family discussed for a while and also supported Minister Liu. They felt that using a thousand taels of silver as a reward was an insult to the expert. Moreover, in Hu Meiniang's opinion, the human True Immortal that her father had mentioned, a peerless expert, needed to be worshiped. Her father-in-law had his own thoughts but so did her father. Everyone thought the same. They didn't expect to befriend him, they just wanted to get lucky.
"Greetings, Mr. Su. The little old man greets you."
Minister Liu bowed respectfully. The shopkeeper who sent him off thought that it was strange and could not help but size up the man holding the wine bottle.
He only felt that this person was meaningful and long-lasting. Looking at him, he gave off a refreshing and clean feeling.
"Minister Liu, there's no need for formalities."
Yun Su nodded and turned to the shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper, is there still fish spring wine in the shop?"
Seeing that Minister Liu was so respectful, the shopkeeper hurriedly cupped his hands and replied: "Sir, we sold out last night."
"Shopkeeper Zhu, aren't there two more jars?"
Minister Liu looked at the shopkeeper and coughed lightly to remind him.
"Right, right. Mr. Su, Minister Liu, please come to the drawing room for a moment."
The shopkeeper was smart and understood immediately. He quickly invited the two of them into the restaurant and into the drawing room. Minister Liu insisted on sitting only after him. Soon, two waiters carefully carried two jars of wine from the wine cellar. Yun Su took a look and realized that each of them was filled with five pounds of wine. The mud seal was intact and had not been opened.
Through the mud seal, one could smell the wine fragrance that soaked one's heart and spleen. Others could not smell it. Yun Su took a light breath and tasted it. It was fish spring wine but it was not five years old. It was much older. Even the wine bottle in his hand swayed, as if it could not wait any longer.
Shopkeeper Zhu personally carried over a jar with a crushed mud seal and took out a wine grape. He skillfully poured a small amount of amber wine from it and filled a cup. Immediately, the fragrance filled the air. Just as He Buyu had said, this wine was getting more and more fragrant. It was indeed extraordinary.
"Mr. Su, please appraise it."
Yun Su raised his cup and drank. A stream of pure liquid entered her stomach. The heat was slightly stronger but the residue fragrance was also much stronger. After drinking it, his mouth was salivating. He didn't even need to go with the dishes. He raised his head and drank it all. How satisfying.
"Minister Liu, this wine is probably more than five years old, right?"
Minister Liu waved his hand and gestured for Shopkeeper Zhu to leave first. The latter sealed the wine jar he had just opened with a brand new wine bottle before quietly leaving.
"Mr. Su, to be honest, I own 20% of the Wenqu Restaurant. I can be considered half the owner. I heard that you brought your family to Wenqu Restaurant for a meal before. I'm really honored. If you come again in the future, I've already given them instructions."
Minister Liu pointed at the two jars of wine and said: "These two jars of twenty-year-old fish spring wine were originally placed here by me to make friends. After so long, I almost forgot. Please accept them, sir.
My family is happy now and I'm satisfied with my small fortune. Ruyu and Meiniang are also extremely filial to the two of us, so I don't have any wishful thinking. It's all thanks to you that the Liu family is where it is today. A few liters of old wine is just to show my sincerity. Don't reject me, sir. I have nothing else to ask for."
"Thank you, Sir. I'll accept it."
Yun Su casually patted the wine bottle on the table and it finally settled down a little.
Minister Liu was slightly stunned. He did not expect the two jars of wine to be delivered so smoothly. He had thought of many excuses and was afraid that this expert would not accept them. His heart finally relaxed.
The two of them chatted for a while more before Yun Su stood up and bade farewell. It was not that he was anxious but if they continued chatting, the fellow in the bottle might not be able to suppress itself.
Minister Liu had originally wanted to arrange a banquet but when he saw this, he could only give up. He wanted to deliver the wine personally but he was afraid that it was inappropriate, so he instructed the butler to bring a few servants and called for two carriages. One was for Yun Su to sit in and the other was to deliver the wine.
It was not that the wine was valuable. He was really afraid that his subordinates would not be able to do their job well and make the good deed a pity. That was why he asked the butler to deliver it personally.
After thinking about it, he had something on his mind again. Yun Su left and he immediately rushed back to the Liu residence.
Yun Su returned to the Qingfeng Small Building and asked Wang Xuanji to continue reading the Mystic Scripture before returning to his room with the two jars of wine.
The little girl seldom left her books these days. When she had nothing to do, she would move a bamboo chair and sit under a withered tree or in the corridor to read.
Yuyang City was not big and was only a county city. However, in Yun Su's opinion, this Fish Spring Wine was top-notch. After hesitating for a moment, he took a new bottle and filled it with a catty to drink.
"Drink up."
Opening the first jar of wine, Yun Su was also generous. The five-year-old fish spring wine had already made He Buyu grit his teeth in anger. A 20-year-old jar of five liters of wine would have been priceless. It was unknown how much money it cost to buy it.
He picked up the wine bottle containing the essence of the clouds and poured it in.
A ray of light shot out and jumped into the wine jar. With a gurgling sound, the wine in the wine jar decreased at a visible speed.
As it drank, it swam around like a fish. Soon, the entire wine jar was dyed red.
In less than half an hour, five liters of wine were empty. The essence of the clouds lay at the bottom of the dried jar, trembling slightly. The multicolored light and purple qi emitted were inch long and headed straight for the mouth of the jar.
"Have you had enough?"
Yun Su pointed at it and felt much better. It didn't resist as it had in the early morning. He tried twice and although he still failed, he figured out its temper.
Fish Spring Wine was useful but it had not drunk enough.
He opened the second jar of wine.
This time, Yun Su was a little surprised. It had persisted for a while just now. Logically speaking, the more it drank, the drunker it became and the less it would drink. In the end, the second jar of wine was gone in less than half the time.
This time, rays of purple light shot out from the mouth of the altar and dyed the entire house red.
"One feeds horses grass when raising them. You, on the other hand, live off of spice and fragrance."
Just as Yun Su was at his wit's end, he sealed the wine jar with his divine sense and cast a spell to cover the phenomenon of light and purple qi in the room.
"Xuanji, open the door. Someone is here to give a gift. Take it."
On the other hand, he was smiling bitterly to himself. 'Great, now I'm getting a headache from receiving gifts. It's all your fault for having such a big appetite. Unfortunately, you can't buy it anywhere else in the city. It's said that the wine shop is also a targeted supply. It's very troublesome to buy it alone.'
Wang Xuanji answered the door and saw a group of eleven people carrying five jars of wine. The butler of the Liu residence who had sent Big Brother Yun back was greeting them with a smile.
"Young lady, we were sent by Minister Liu to deliver wine to Mr. Su."
Wang Xuanji returned the bow and accepted it. The butler quickly instructed someone to carry the wine jar into the courtyard. Without further ado, he quietly took his leave.
"It's all right now. Go back to reading."
Yun Su carried the rope on the wine jar and carried it into the house with one in each hand. He undid the seal on the wine jar. The red light was drunk and swayed as it pounced on the large wine jar. Even the mud seal could not stop it. It crawled in and challenged the dozens of liters of 20-year-old wine inside.
Ignoring it, he lay down on the bed, took out the incense book, and started reading. 'I'll wait for you to drink it slowly.' He said.
Two hours later, the essence of the cloud finished the last drop of wine and staggered over to rub against Yun Su's arm. Helpless, he could only give the 20-years-old wine that he saved up to it too.
Finally, after exhausting all the fish spring wine sent by Official Liu, the essence energy of the clouds completed a step towards satisfaction and became obedient.
"Be good and get bigger."
"Not bad. Get smaller."
"Keep the color low."
"Become more high profile when I tell you to be. Yes, that's it."
'A little more noise would be nice.'
Following that, Yun Su completed the refinement of this cloud essence without any resistance.
Bigger, smaller, longer, shorter. Handy. Even the problem of softness, color, and even sound was solved.
This divine item could be said to be very handy at this moment. It did not even need a trace of magic power. With a thought, this cloud essence could be easily controlled.
With the help of a divine item, he finally succeeded in using an immortal technique.
Looking at it floating in midair and swaying in front of him, Yun Su didn't dare to go out and jump on it now. If he fell from a high altitude, it would be considered an accident or drunk driving.
He just had to wait for it to sober up and experience this mount at night. He just hoped that its ability would be greater than its alcohol tolerance.
