C1997 Jiang Yixiang
There was a sound in the kitchen, as if the bowls and chopsticks had fallen to the ground.
Then, an old man ran out of the kitchen while cursing.
"You bastard Zhou Xiaoba, what are you yelling for?
"I was just about to steal a sip of the new wine when I was scared by you. Now it's all gone!"
This old man should be around sixty years old. His white hair was comparable to Zhou Xiaoba's.
His wrinkled face was covered with a thick white beard that almost covered his long chin and face like a white mask.
There was still some alcohol on his beard that he hadn't cleaned up in time.
He was well-built. His upper body was only wearing a beige vest, revealing his aged yet surprisingly sturdy muscles.
On the outside of the vest was a kitchen apron covered in oil.
In his right hand was a long spoon dripping with wine.
The old man suddenly came to Zhou Xiaoba's side and said lowly: "Give me the contact information of the girl from France on Red Lantern Street you brought back last time, and I'll forgive you!"
"Cough, cough, cough -"
Zhou Xiaoba nervously glanced at Ye Hong and the others behind him. He immediately shouted at the old man, "Uncle Jiang. "We'll talk about it later. Let me introduce you to a guest."
He first introduced them to Ye Hong and the others. "This is the chef and brewery master of Drunkard's Residence, Jiang Daxiang. We usually call him Uncle Jiang.
Uncle Jiang's culinary skills are superb, and his wine brewing is even better. You guys must taste Uncle Jiang's wine one day."
"Hello, Uncle Jiang."
Everyone greeted Jiang Daxiang.
However, just as Zhou Xiaoba was about to introduce Ye Hong and the others to Jiang Daxiang, they heard a regular snoring sound.
"ZZ... ZZ... ZZ...
Everyone turned around and saw Jiang Daxiang standing there with his eyes closed.
He had fallen asleep standing there.
After a while, Jiang Daxiang suddenly opened his sleepy eyes. He yawned and asked, "Are you done with the introductions?
If there's nothing else, I'll go back and continue brewing wine."
As he spoke, he actually stepped on his slippers and went back to the kitchen.
Everyone:... "
Ye Hong seemed to have realized the reason why Drunkard's Residence's business wasn't doing well.
"This... Uncle Jiang's temper is a little strange..."
Zhou Xiaoba smiled awkwardly. "It seems like I can only wait until one day when Uncle Jiang wakes up from his alcohol and introduce you guys again."
"Let's go. I will take you upstairs."
Drunkard's Residence had a total of three floors.
Except for the hall on the first floor, the second and third floors were all accommodations.1
The second floor was where Uncle Jiang and the rest of the staff lived.
The third floor was where the people from the Yan Group usually met.
However, because of Ye Hong and the others' arrival, this place was temporarily arranged as their resting place.
Fortunately, the room was enough.
Even including Zhou Hao's unexpected factor, it was enough for everyone to have a room.
After Ye Hong and the rest checked in, Zhou Xiaoba also bid them farewell.
"Advisor Ye, please wait here patiently for two days. We will act after our intel is ready."
Before leaving, Zhou Xiaoba put away his cynical attitude and said to Ye Hong in a serious and respectful manner.
He only acted like an elite of Yan Group when he faced Ye Hong, the consultant of Sacred Temple alone.
Of course, Ye Hong didn't have any objections to this.
His main purpose of coming to Riegan this time was to rescue Jiang Taotao.
Saving someone was something that couldn't be rushed.
As the saying goes, knowing yourself and knowing your enemy, you won't be defeated in a single battle.
At the moment, it was better to wait until the information of the Yan Group and the FCI was gathered before acting. Only then would it be safer.
