"Mm, good, good, ah! Sisters?"
Duke Lu stroked his beard and nodded repeatedly. However, his expression immediately changed. Didn't he want to test Xiao Han's family? How did it become marrying his two daughters to Xiao Han?
She wanted to clarify again, but she found that Xiao Han was already drunk and couldn't be woken up no matter how hard she tried.
"Sigh! What should he do now that he had said this!”
Duke Lu was dumbfounded. He had no idea what had happened.
He had originally wanted to spy on Xiao Han's family situation, but after discovering that Xiao Han's family was empty, he had the idea of marrying his daughter off. As he spoke, he somehow became excited.
In the end, he sold both of his daughters for no reason.
How was he going to tell Lu Zhi and Lu Su about this!
The drunk Xiao Han revealed a faint smile.
Not long after, the carriage arrived at Pei County.
Xiao Han also moved into Duke Lu's mansion.
The next morning, Xiao Han got up, washed up, and walked to the lobby.
Seeing that Lu Zhi and Lu Gong were in the hall, he wanted to go in and greet them.
However, he saw that Lu Zhi had a sorrowful expression as he opened his mouth and said,""Father, the silver we have left is less than a month's worth.”
"Sigh! He didn't expect that he would suffer such heavy losses during this trip.”
Duke Lu sighed and paced back and forth.
"Sigh! That's right! However, it was fortunate that he was able to survive this calamity.”
"That's true! However, what about the living expenses in the future!”
Facing Lu Zhi's advice, Duke Lu was still somewhat troubled.
He was a scholar and had accumulated a lot of savings when he was an official. But now that he was old and had resigned, he did not have a way to make money. He could not possibly go to the northwest after a month!
Ding! Activates the main storyline of the Lu family's financial crisis.
Option 1: Do nothing. Reward: 100 gold taels.
Option 2, help Lu Clan solve their financial crisis, gain the approval of Duke Lu and Lu Zhi's admiration.
"Option two."
Hearing the system prompt, Xiao Han did not hesitate and directly chose the second option.
As a young man from the 21st world, he knew too many things that this era didn't know. Wasn't it easy to make a fortune in this era?
With this thought in mind, Xiao Han pushed open the door and walked into the hall.
"Good morning!"
Xiao Han said politely.
"Good morning, Young Master."
"Good morning, Young Master Xiao."
When Lu Zhi saw Xiao Han enter, he was stunned for a moment, but he still replied politely.
Xiao Han glanced at Lu Zhi and Duke Lu. Through their conversation and expressions, he instantly understood.
It seemed that this Duke Lu was also an old fox. He actually did not tell Lu Zhi about his marriage with Lu Zhi.
However, he soon understood the meaning of the system's sudden mission. Clearly, in order to make Master Lu willing to marry his daughter, he needed to obtain his complete approval.
Fortunately, he chose the second option. Otherwise, this old man would probably deny it!
"Yes! I heard what you said just now. I've already thought of a way to solve your financial crisis.”
Xiao Han didn't hide anything and went straight to the point.
"What, you, you have a solution?”
Hearing Xiao Han's words, Duke Lu and Lu Zhi were stunned, disbelief in their eyes.
They had been thinking about it for the whole night, but they couldn't think of a solution. Xiao Han had thought of a solution just by hearing it. This was too unbelievable!
"Looks like I have to show you my skills today. Today, I'll show you what it means to turn stone into gold. Follow me.”
Xiao Han didn't say much and walked straight to the kitchen.
When he reached the kitchen, he ordered the servants to bring the wine from the Lu Residence.
He had discovered yesterday that the wine in this world was too primitive. The alcohol content was only slightly more than ten degrees. This alcohol content could only be drunk as fruit juice. The taste was really not good.
He wanted to introduce the modern liquor's retorting technology in advance and try to make some high-alcohol distilled liquor.
"Young Master Xiao, what use do you have for this wine?”
Lu Zhi looked at Xiao Han's strange behavior with a face full of curiosity and doubt. Could it be that Xiao Han wanted to turn this ordinary wine into gold?
That was impossible. This wine could be sold anywhere. As long as there was some surplus grain at home, it could be brewed. It was not a rare item at all.
"That's right! Young Master, what is the use of this wine?"
Duke Lu was also puzzled. He didn't understand what Xiao Han was trying to do. What did the Lu family's financial crisis have to do with this wine?
"You'll know in a while."
Xiao Han didn't say much and went straight into the kitchen.
After entering the kitchen, Xiao Han began to get bamboo tubes and cloth to make simple retorting tools. Then, he poured the wine into the pot and started a fire.
Lu Gong and Lu Zhi did not enter the kitchen. Instead, they watched Xiao Han busy himself in the courtyard with a puzzled expression.
When they saw Xiao Han pour the wine into the pot, they felt a little heartache. If Xiao Han hadn't saved their lives, they would have rushed in and beaten him up.
Is there anyone who wastes alcohol like you? The wine was worth more than ten taels of silver, but it was ruined by him just like that.
Not long after, Xiao Han came out of the kitchen with a small wine jar in his hand.
"I say, Young Master! Where's the wine?"
Seeing that Xiao Han had finally come out, Duke Lu asked.
Obviously, he was still worried about the wine.
"What wine? Isn't it all here?"
Xiao Han shook the wine jar in his hand and said.
As he spoke, he took out a bowl and placed it on the table. Then, he poured a bowl for Master Lu.
"Ah! All that wine was gone? It turned into this? So many good things…Eh! Is this wine?"
When Duke Lu heard Xiao Han's words, he wanted to slap his head. What a prodigal son-in-law! There were so many jars of good wine, but they were reduced to such a small amount. You weren't here to solve the crisis, you were here to create it.
However, before he could finish his words, as Xiao Han poured the wine, a refreshing wine fragrance instantly spread.
Duke Lu was completely stunned. He was from a prestigious family and had seen all kinds of wine. No matter how high the quality of the wine was, it was all turbid.
It was the first time he had seen such a clear wine without any impurities. If not for the extremely rich fragrance of the wine, he would have thought that this was a bowl of water.
He couldn't understand how such a murky wine could turn into such a clear wine in Xiao Han's hands.
"Grunt!"
Duke Lu's Adam's apple bobbed. He could not help but take a sip.
"Ah, this pure taste, rich wine fragrance, high but not strong taste, it's really mellow and fragrant, deep and long…Good wine, good wine! This old man has been an official in the imperial court for many years and has drunk all the famous wines in the world, but I never knew that there was such a fine wine in this world!”
After drinking a mouthful of wine, a blissful smile immediately appeared on Master Lu's face.
He kept praising it. Compared to this wine, all the so-called good wines in the past were all dregs. After so many years, he did not know that there was such a good wine in the world. He had lived in vain.
"Duke Lu, is this wine comparable to gold?”
Xiao Han said with a smile.
