Chapter 620: Chapter 620 Very Face-Saving Chapter 620: Chapter 620 Very Face-Saving Fuman Building ran a tavern.
What they never lacked was wine. When Su Yunjin came to sell two jars of wine, Manager Liu felt that Su Yunjin was joking. The wine at Fuman Building was supplied by designated people, and they generally wouldn’t accept wine from other sources. Moreover, Fuman Building required a large quantity of wine.
The two jars Su Yunjin brought were basically useless.
“Madam, if you have come to Fuman Building to sell wine, then I’m sorry, but our Fuman Building normally does not accept wine brought by others.” Before Su Yunjin could speak, Manager Liu politely refused her. The way Manager Liu spoke to Su Yunjin was actually already giving her quite a bit of face. If it had been someone else, Manager Liu wouldn’t even bother with an extra word. He would have directly instructed the staff to dismiss her, as Su Yunjin had come to Fuman Building to sell things a few times before.
She had also signed a contract with Fuman Building for pig’s blood, and it was by considering those past favors that Manager Liu was still polite to Su Yunjin.
Manager Liu did not know that what she came to sell was fruit wine, had he known, he certainly would not have spoken like that, “Manager Liu, although my husband and I did come to Fuman Building to sell wine today, the wine we’ve brought is not available anywhere else.”
Not available anywhere else?
Such a claim by Su Yunjin made Manager Liu burst into laughter.
“Madam, our Fuman Building is the largest tavern in town, what kind of wine could we possibly not have?” In Manager Liu’s view, Su Yunjin, a mere young woman who didn’t understand wine, how could her wine be something Fuman Building didn’t have?
Manager Liu did not believe her, and Su Yunjin did not explain further.
Talking too much was no better than letting Manager Liu try it for himself; once he tasted the flavor of the rice wine she had brought, he would then know whether what she said was true or not. “Manager Liu, if you don’t believe me, why not try the wine I have brought?”
Manager Liu did not speak.
Su Yunjin then said, “Manager Liu, since I’ve already brought the wine, trying it won’t hurt anything, right? If the wine tastes good and you buy it from me, I earn money, and Fuman Building can also make money, which is beneficial to all of us. And if you’re not satisfied with the wine I’ve brought, I will simply take it back, so there’s no harm done to you, right? What do you think?” Su Yunjin made a good point.
After pondering for a moment, Manager Liu then nodded his agreement.
“Alright, let’s do as you say, Madam!”
Having persuaded Manager Liu, Su Yunjin and her husband Gu Ya carried the rice wine to the room where Manager Liu usually conducted business and opened the wine jars. The fragrance of the wine wafted out, and they filled a clean bowl halfway with the fruit wine.
Approaching Manager Liu, Su Yunjin respectfully offered the bowl of wine to him. Taking the fruit wine, Manager Liu looked down to see the wine’s somewhat yellow color, and immediately looked at Su Yunjin with a surprised face.
“Madam, why is this wine yellow?”
At the marketplace, the rice wine, along with other wines from Fuman Building, was always one color, the same as clear water. Liu had never seen wine with a yellowish tint before.
Beyond his surprise, Manager Liu wondered to himself if the wine Su Yunjin had brought really was something not available elsewhere.
“Manager Liu, please taste it and see how the flavor is,” Su Yunjin said with a smile, encouraging Manager Liu to taste the wine.
After hearing Su Yunjin’s words and giving her a glance, Manager Liu cautiously brought the bowl to his lips.
