In the morning, dawn breaks.
On the streets of Ning'an City, the sounds of hawking could be heard one after another. The heat rising from the various breakfasts also dispelled the early morning chill.
“Steamed buns, freshly baked steamed buns!”
“Selling candied haws on a stick, delicious candied haws on a stick!”
“Here, aunt, here are two articles for you. Money!”
…..
At this time, walking along the street, you will find a quiet house.
"Guest, according to your instructions, we found this house specially.
This house was the residence of the former Juren master. Later, the son of that master was promoted. It is said that After being transferred to the south, this house is also for sale..."
Early in the morning, Zhao Jie, the tooth man, looked at Lin Yi with a flattering look on his face and introduced the courtyard carefully.
The courtyard is a standard quadrangle, with three entrances and three rooms in a quiet environment, which is perfect for one person to live in.
If it is used to sell wine, the outer courtyard can be transformed into a store, the middle one can be used for living, and the inner one can be used for wine storage.
"What's the price?"
After looking at it for several days, Ji Yi was quite satisfied with the yard in front of him.
Although it was for cultivation, he did not want to suffer himself.
"It's a total of one thousand five hundred taels of silver. If the guest wants it, I can give you a discount, one thousand three hundred taels is enough."
"That's it."
With that said, Ji Yi took out a money bag from his arms and handed all the one thousand two hundred taels of silver to Yaren.
“Good luck!”
Seeing the money, Yaren Zhao Jie’s eyes suddenly showed a look of joy.
This gentleman seems to be a gentle man, and he has been visiting houses frequently these days. If it weren't for his extraordinary clothes, ordinary people would probably not be willing to serve him.
"Sure enough, Zhao has a very good vision. He seems to be a calm person, but his actions must be extremely generous. He actually settled the deal in one go."
Soon, the tooth man Zhao Jie Then he helped Lin Yi complete all the procedures.
By the time a piece of house deed fell into Ji Yi's hands, it was already the sunrise.
“Unexpectedly, Lin is now a serious person with a house deed.”
Looking at the house deed in his hand, Lin Yi couldn't help but reveal a smile.
During this long cultivation career, he spent most of his time directly opening temporary caves in the wild.
Even the gold and silver paid just now were only extracted from the ores in the mountains and fields.
In his eyes, the wealth that is unattainable to ordinary mortals is just within easy reach.
“This house needs to be cleaned by someone, but since it is the only real estate that Lin has owned in his two lifetimes, it is better to be cautious and do it yourself.”
Thinking of this, Ji Yi also gave up the idea of hiring others to clean.
A moment later, Lin Yi waved his hand, and a breeze whizzed out from his palm.
The wind started at the fingertips, and then blew through the corridor in one breath. Wherever the breeze blew, all the dust rats and ants in the house were wiped out by it.
In just a few seconds, the whole house was washed clean by this breeze.
“Sure enough, I am still used to this kind of busy days.”
Looking at the wisp of gray smoke disappearing into the horizon, Ji Yi sighed, carried the bucket to the front yard and started wiping the table.
Although, all the stains on the table have been cleaned away by the breeze just now.
But it always requires a sense of ritual participation.
......
"Uncle, did you just move here?"
A while after burning incense, Lin Yi was enjoying the cool air in the small courtyard, when suddenly a curious child's voice came.
Jin Yi looked around and found no one behind the table.
"Uncle, I'm here."
The visitor seemed to have discovered something. He walked out from behind the table with a proud look on his face. He turned out to be a man with a gray face and a height of only three feet. Little girl.
Wearing a light blue dress with two pigtails, her round face is very cute, and her smiling eyes seem to be hiding a pool of autumn water, which is very beautiful.
But his temperament is probably a bit naughty. At this moment, his red face is gray and his clothes are stained with a lot of dust. He has obviously rolled on the ground.
"Little one, where did you come from? You have to call me brother next time!"
Looking at this cute and cute girl, Lin Yi emphasized.
Having been used to the flattery and flattery of fairies from all walks of life, this occasional innocence is quite rare.
"My name is Yu'er, Jiang Yu'er. I'm not a little kid. My mother said I will grow taller in the future."
After hearing Ji Yi's words, Jiang Yu'er corrected her with a serious expression on her face.
“As for why I’m here, it’s because I just got into a fight with someone, and I saw the door here opened, so I came in and hid. When I’m not dirty again, my mother won’t scold me. "
Speaking of this, Jiang Yu'er moved a small stool from the door panel in the corner familiarly, sat in front of Ji Yi, held her hands in her hands and said curiously.
Looking at this familiar look, it is obvious that he has taken refuge in this room frequently in the past.
It’s just that, looking at that gray face, it doesn’t look like it will be clean later.
"Fight, who will fight with a little kid like you?"
Ji Yi also became interested.
Fight.
I haven’t heard this sentence for many years.
In the past, in order to act prudently, once there was a dispute with someone or something was done, Ji Yi would immediately kill the other person and steal their souls.
For this reason, there are many ghosts in his Xuanyin flag.
“I haven’t heard of something as simple as a fight for a long time.”
Jin Yi sighed in his heart.
"It's okay to tell uncle, but uncle don't tell my mother."
Facing Ji Yi's inquiry, Jiang Yu'er hesitated and said.
"Call me brother."
Jin Yi emphasized.
The way he looks now, he is only eighteen years old at most.
The little girl in front of me is only five or six years old, and she sounds like an uncle, which sounds quite unpleasant.
After all, if one really cares about age, he can be the eighteenth generation of the other party's ancestor.
"Okay, then I'll call you brother. You can't tell my mother.
Actually, it was Erhuzi from the next street and a group of his friends. I didn't want to fight with them at first, but No one plays with me, and they scold me. There was a father.
Then, the fight started.
But they were so useless that I beat them all down, hehe. At this point, Jiang Yuer quickly spoke.
This little girl seemed to have not found anyone to talk to for a long time. Regardless of whether Ji Yi answered or not, she just sat on the small stool and kept talking.
Although he looks like a little kid, he knows a lot of things.
It also made Lin Yi know a lot of things around here through the conversation with this little girl, and he had a rough idea of the details.
"Mom said that my father is doing business outside and will come back when he makes money. Brother, what are you doing here?"
In the end, Jiang Yuer seemed to be afraid of Lin Yi He also asked like those friends who were fighting.
"I'm also here to do business..."
At this point, Ji Yi's eyes moved, and in the process of raising his hand, a gust of breeze blew towards the little girl in front of him.
"Yu'er, did you fight with someone again and come here to hide?"
At this time, a soft voice came from outside the house.
As he said these words, Ji Yi saw a young woman wearing a long cyan dress with a dignified and beautiful face walking in.
But this woman had just reached the threshold. When she saw Ji Yi lying in the courtyard enjoying the cool air, her steps suddenly slowed down.
“I am the Jiang family and have met this young master.
I didn’t know that this place had a new owner before. Please forgive me if I am presumptuous.
I wonder if the little girl is here. "
Speaking of this, Jiang followed the direction of Lin Yi's finger and saw Jiang Yu'er hiding behind the table. "You've all seen it, come out quickly."
"Mother, I really didn't fight this time."
Hearing Jiang's voice, Jiang Yu'er walked out from behind the table timidly, pinching the hem of her skirt and said.
It looked like a mouse after seeing a cat, completely losing its fearless appearance just now.
“I know you didn’t fight, so come back with me quickly so as not to disturb others.”
Seeing Jiang Yu'er's neatly dressed appearance, Jiang breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly waved.
"How do you know that Yu'er didn't fight?"
Hearing this, Jiang Yu'er asked curiously.
It was because her clothes were dirty that she ran here to hide as usual.
“Look at your clothes.”
Seeing Lin Yi here, Jiang didn't know what to say, so she spoke.
"Hey, why are my clothes not dirty anymore."
Hearing this, Jiang Yuer lowered her head and looked at her clothes.
I was surprised to find that the originally gray clothes had become brand new, and he suddenly said with a look of astonishment.
"You really got into a fight, come back with me."
Mrs. Jiang was stunned for a moment, then stepped forward and grabbed Jiang Yu'er's little hand as if she was angry, and walked out of the house.
"Woooo..."
Seeing this appearance, Jiang Yuer suddenly became tearful.
When he was about to go out, he looked at Ji Yi with a pitiful expression, but Lin Yi smiled happily.
“I came in a hurry today, I will come to visit you another day.”
As these words were spoken, Mrs. Jiang bowed to Lin Yi and then took Jiang Yu'er towards a house across the street.
Not all the houses in this place have large courtyards, but although the houses across the street are not as grand as the place where Ji Yi lives, they do not look like small houses.
"Daddy is out on business."
Listening to Jiang Yuer's begging for mercy from a distance, the smile on Lin Yi's face gradually faded away.
“The world is impermanent. Everyone has their own way of living, and I have to have my own way of living.”
With these words, Ji Yi also walked out of the yard and walked towards the spacious street.
In just half a day's work, Lin Yi went to all the major grain stores in the city and purchased a batch of items needed for brewing wine.
He is no stranger to winemaking.
After all, when he was in Danxia Sect, he bribed Senior Brother Xiang Feiyu with spiritual wine.
However, what was brewed that day was spiritual wine, and all kinds of spiritual objects were used. He had never brewed this simplest food wine.
"I think they should be about the same."
Looking at the various bottles and cans in the courtyard, Lin Yi thought to himself after looking at them.
For the next period of time, Ji Yi was silent in the process of brewing wine. The difference was that this time he did not use magic, but chose to do it himself.
Although wine is made from brewed food, different brewing methods have different tastes.
Even if it is a kind of wine, there are hundreds of flavors in life.
"When I was still in the Immortal City, a group of innate warriors would drink at the Qingyun Restaurant in the city after each mining session.
My first wine was called Qingyun Bar. ”
Recalling the first time, Ji Yi started to brew while he was pondering.
Mortal wine, no matter how difficult it is, is just mediocre in Ji Yi's eyes.
After all, he came here to practice. Even if it is ordinary wine, it should be extraordinary.
If it can be brewed, the kind of wine that makes people sink into it involuntarily after drinking it is like the artistic conception of the monk who transforms into gods.
Perhaps this is the day when he becomes a god.
This is Ji Yi’s expectation for himself, although it seems a bit unrealistic at present.
Speaking of unreality, on the third day when Lin Yi was brewing wine, Mr. Jiang came over with a pot of wine and vegetables to apologize for Jiang Yuer's trespassing that day.
Although Ji Yi has said that he will not mind, this Jiang family does care about it very much, but that's all.
Obviously, a woman living alone with a child will have various inconveniences after all.
After that, the two of them stopped interacting.
The little one named Jiang Yu'er seemed to have received orders from Mr. Jiang and did not go to his yard in the days to come.
Two months passed in the blink of an eye.
“This wine is finished.”
In the small courtyard, Ji Yi looked at the wine that had been brewed for two months, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
“The taste is strong, but slightly bitter.”
After tasting it, Ji Yi frowned.
After all, this Qingyun wine did not meet his requirements.
If we just talk about the taste, it may be ranked in the middle among the many fine wines in Ning'an City, but it is still just an ordinary wine, far from what Ji Yi requires.
"That's all, it's the first time after all, so I can't rush it."
Thinking of this, Lin Yi looked at the dozen or so bottles of Qingyun wine in the courtyard, and after pondering for a while, he suddenly paid attention.
The place where he is now is not the place where the immortal cultivator is after all. Since he came to live here, he has not gone out much.
Perhaps, as a newcomer in the homes of the people on this street, he will inevitably be given some strange labels.
“Although I don’t mind this, I have to do something to avoid trouble. After all, I still have to live here in the future.
Even in terms of silver, there needs to be some explanation. "
Thinking like this, Ji Yi walked to the front yard and started to pack it up.
Two days later.
" Bang bang bang! ”
With a burst of loud firecrackers exploding like two long red dragons in front of the door, Ji Yi’s door suddenly became lively.
Within a short time, many people came here to join in the fun.
"My dear Lin Yi, I just moved here a few days ago.
Because I concentrate on wine making, I have never visited you.
Now the first batch of wine has been After the brewing is completed, it’s time to show off to everyone.”
Facing everyone’s eyes, Ji Yi said with a smile.
"This is Qingyun wine brewed by Lin. Because it is sold for the first time, there will be some discounts on the price.
Any purchaser can enjoy a 20% discount.
< br>If you buy three bottles at a time, you can also get one bottle as a gift. In addition, you can also try a glass of wine before purchasing..."
As Ji Yi finished speaking, a voice suddenly came from the crowd. Curious words.
“Is this true?”
"This offer will last for several days."
"It will last for three days in total. If you are interested, you can come and try the wine."
Jin Yi said with a smile.
"I'll come."
Hearing this, some people in the crowd who liked drinking suddenly came forward.
With the first person, the next thing will be much simpler.
Due to the favorable price, a lot of this drink was sold.
Seeing this, Ji Yi didn’t pay too much attention. More money and less money was not his main purpose.
During this process, he saw Jiang Yu'er and Mr. Jiang on the opposite side also showing their heads due to this lively attraction.
The two of them just saluted from a distance, which was considered a greeting.
