When Li Bai first learned of Ying Zheng's identity, he was extremely excited.

Now that he saw Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che, appear before him, he felt even happier.

Even though he had some complaints about some of their national policies and even wrote poems to criticize them, this did not hinder his joy and excitement when he saw them.

He wrote poems to draw lessons from the past and satirize the present, but that doesn't mean he denied the civil and military achievements of both.

Moreover, he felt very happy when he saw these famous kings in history showing the same shocked expressions as himself when facing the tavern.

The emperor is no better than this! "The most magical things in the tavern are the fine wines that can bring all kinds of extraordinary powers." Li Bai introduced.

Liu Che followed him to the bar.

When he saw a girl sitting there with an expressionless face, staring at him, he smiled awkwardly, thinking that the girl's expression might mean something to him.

Li Bai introduced them and said, "This is Feng Baobao."

"Baby, this is Emperor Wu of Han, Liu Che. You should have heard of him."

Feng Baobao nodded: "I know."

She extended her hand to Liu Che, and a stiff, robotic smile appeared on her lips: "Hello."

Liu Che was stunned for a moment, then hurried forward, leaned over the bar and gently shook her hand.

"It seems that I misunderstood." He secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

After Li Bai's introduction, he turned to look at the wine list.

When he saw the million-year-old Taoist wine in the front, he was completely stunned.

"This wine..." he asked.

Li Bai nodded and interrupted: "Just a glass of this wine can make you transcend the ordinary and become a saint!"

Liu Che's eyes flashed with intense excitement.

He looked at the price marked at the back.

The description of tens of millions of space-time coins made him silent for a moment.

Noticing his gaze, Li Bai explained the exchange rate between gold and space-time currency.

During the Qin and Han Dynasties, one catty was approximately equal to more than 250 grams.

In other words, four kilograms of gold can be exchanged for one space-time coin.

Liu Che calculated silently, and his originally passionate mood suddenly died down.

After the reigns of Emperor Wen and Emperor Jing, the Han treasury was now full, but there was not enough gold for him to squander.

He looked down again.

The Transcendence Body Wine, the Eight-Nine Mysterious Art Wine, the Dao Flower Wine...

He was fascinated by the different kinds of wine.

He finally understood what Li Bai had said earlier.

With so many incredible wines, even if gods came here, they would be no match for them.

He clenched his fists secretly, with endless thoughts in his mind.

Li Bai looked at Liu Che's ever-changing expression and a faint smile appeared on his face.

In this situation, he wanted to recite a poem.

Just as he was brewing an idea for poetry and was about to recite it, he suddenly saw a figure appear in the tavern.

His face lit up, and he waved at the man and said, "Gao Sanshiwu, why are you here?"

Gao Shi was also delighted when he saw Li Bai, and said with a smile: "I talked with Political Commissar Zhao about some things a few days ago, and I have sorted them out these days..."

Halfway through the conversation, Gao Shi suddenly asked in surprise: "Why are there so few people here today?"

Li Bai smiled and said, "Li Jing and his wife want to adopt Lin Daiyu as their adopted daughter. They are holding a banquet today and everyone is going."

He said with regret: "I got the invitation, but I was busy comprehending martial arts and missed the opportunity."

Gao Shi suddenly realized, patted his head and said: "I seem to have heard of it, but I have been too busy these days. By the way, who is this?"

Seeing Gao Shi looking at him, Liu Che bowed and said, "I am Liu Che."

The dazzling array of fine wines still made his head dizzy, and he had long thrown aside his emperor's airs.

"I am Gao Shi." After Gao Shi bowed and greeted him, he showed some curiosity in his eyes, "Are you Emperor Xiaowu of the Han Dynasty, Liu Che?"

Liu Che had already accepted the title of "Emperor Wu" calmly and nodded, "That's right."

Gao Shi said excitedly: "I have heard of your name for a long time!"

His ancestors started out as military men, and he was eager to join the army and make achievements. He was very fond of emperors like Liu Che who were fond of military force and expansion of territory.

But Liu Che had no intention of talking more.

There was something more important pulling at his heart and soul.

Without saying a few words, he turned his attention back to the long wine list.

There were so many fine wines that interested him that he was overwhelmed and felt that two eyes were not enough.

Unlike Li Bai, Gao Shi was quite knowledgeable about these fine wines.

He followed Liu Che's line of sight for a moment, and took the initiative to introduce: "In the tavern, there are currently three fine wines that are most suitable for newcomers."

"Oh?" Liu Che turned around and looked.

"Through the practice of martial arts, the power that can be unleashed at the same level of cultivation is the strongest and the upper limit is also higher, but the price is also much more expensive and the environment requirements are more stringent. It is not suitable for people who are new to the tavern to buy." Gao Shi explained.

Liu Che nodded slightly.

He felt that the other party was still saving face by saying this.

After all, the prices of those fine cultivation wines that he had his eyes on were much higher.

Not to mention whether you have enough gold to buy them, if you really search the world for gold just for them, it would be a waste of time and effort.

This place should be his chance to realize his dream and build a strong Han, rather than a bad fate that drags down the Han for his own selfishness! Now that he has this chance, expanding his territory is a piece of cake.

One day, when I own the entire planet, won’t gold be inexhaustible?

Gao Shi continued, "If you have sufficient funds, you can spend 100,000 Spacetime Coins to buy Thundergod Gene Wine."

This is what he has always desired, but there is a huge gap between them.

Liu Che looked over there.

When he saw the description of the Thundergod Gene Wine, a look of excitement flashed across his face.

A physique a thousand times stronger than that of an ordinary person, plus a thousand tons of strength, he knew how terrifying it was just by thinking about it.

With such strength, let alone taking down the enemy leader in the chaos, it would be easy for him to fight against ten thousand people alone and destroy an army with his bare hands.

His thousand-year lifespan even made his breathing quicken.

Throughout history, which king did not desire immortality?

It was even a little unbelievable to him that he could gain a thousand years of life so easily.

As for the last "power of thunder and lightning", it made him understand the connection between this wine and "Thor".

"It's a huge profit to buy a glass of such fine wine with one hundred thousand time and space coins!" After Liu Che read it carefully, his heart was pounding and he wished he could go back and prepare gold right away.

He had only glanced through it briefly earlier, but had not checked the details of each one.

Li Bai held the wine glass, took a sip of wine, looked at Liu Che's expression again, and smiled as he exchanged glances with Gao Shi.

Gao Shi continued, "The second type is the God's Gene Wine, which is worth five thousand Spacetime Coins."

Liu Che's gaze had already followed and looked over.

"The greatest benefit of this wine is that it gives the drinker a chance to gain a superpower that suits him or her," Gao Shi said. "Currently, most people who have drunk this wine in the tavern have gained superpowers in one go, and most of them are different."

"Tony is an exception. He drank several times." Li Bai interrupted.

Gao Shi opened his mouth and wanted to say that Tony was notoriously unlucky in the pub, but considering that this would be suspected of gossiping behind someone's back, he did not say it in the end.

"Superpowers?" Liu Che asked hesitantly.

He found it interesting to think of a weak little girl like Lin Daiyu after she activated her superpowers.

Liu Che's eyes became burning.

Whether it is a test of luck or superpowers, he is very interested in it.

He considered himself lucky to be able to ascend to the throne step by step, clear away obstacles, and leave only his own voice in the court.

"What about the other kind?" Liu Che took a deep breath, calmed his excited mood, and asked.

Gao Shi smiled and said, "The last one is the Awakening Stone Wine that has just been put on the shelves in the tavern. It can help people awaken their martial spirits."

"This is also a special way of practice. The threshold is relatively low, and it requires the assistance of spirit rings to improve strength. Although there are many restrictions, the upper limit is not low." Gao Shi introduced.

Liu Che nodded slightly.

He had some impression of it.

Just now he saw several powerful spirit rings and martial spirits, as well as spirit power cultivation wine.

According to the descriptions of those martial souls, if one is not satisfied with the awakened martial soul, one can purchase other existing martial souls to form dual martial souls or even multiple martial souls. It sounds good.

"Awakening Stone Wine can be consumed multiple times," Li Bai said with a smile, "and there is a certain probability of obtaining dual martial spirits."

A few days ago, Ying Zheng obtained his second martial soul, which was a weapon martial soul, exactly the same as his imperial seal.

This made Li Shimin and others extremely envious.

"But if you don't want to use it for cultivation, you'd better not waste it." Li Bai added.

Tony bought ten cups of Awakening Stone Wine in a row, but he still didn't get his second martial soul.

Liu Che nodded and made a decision in his heart.

Compared to becoming a soul master, he is more eager to cultivate immortality.

He was particularly attracted to martial arts such as "Eight-Nine Mysterious Skills" and "Seventy-Two Transformations".

"This wine can be used to reward subordinates." Liu Che thought.

He now relies heavily on Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, not only because they are Wei Zifu's younger brother and nephew, but also because of their personalities and outstanding military talents.

It was true that he doted on the two of them, but he also worried occasionally, fearing that one day they would become too arrogant and too powerful to be controlled.

Although he felt that this possibility was extremely slim after having this immortal fate, the soul master's practice method allowed him to see another way to reward and balance the two.

With only two hundred time and space coins, he could allow the two to awaken their martial spirits and gain extraordinary powers, which would surely make them respect him more. He could also set an example and let others know the benefits of following him.

If the two of them make achievements, they can be rewarded with soul power wine or even soul rings, so that they can gain stronger power. There is no need to worry that their contributions are too great to be rewarded. It can also encourage the two of them to be loyal to the emperor and serve the country and expand the territory for themselves.

At the same time, this can also indirectly restrict the strength of the two, so as to prevent them from being the one in a billion practicing geniuses who quietly surpass themselves and lose control.

The more Liu Che thought about it, the more he felt that this matter was highly feasible.

He was even a little impatient.

After introducing these wines that are extremely popular in the pub and have a good value for money, Gao Shi went on to talk about several other best-selling wines.

Such as the cheapest longevity wine, the spider-fortified wine made from Peter's blood, etc.

Liu Che's eyes were shining with excitement, and he had already thought of how to maximize the value of these fine wines.

He thanked me sincerely.

Today's wine lists contain a vast array of various winemaking ingredients. If there were no one to introduce them, it would take an unknown amount of time for one to read through them one by one.

With the introduction of Li Bai and Gao Shi, he learned about the treasures in the treasure pavilion.

Just like these extraordinary wines, the collections with incredible effects also made him fascinated.

He felt that the first thirty years of his life had been wasted.

If he had entered the tavern earlier, he wouldn't have had to lie in wait for so long.

Those guys who were in power and secretly disobeyed me would have been overthrown by me long ago!

"Brother Liu, this is your first time at the tavern. Let me show you the Hero Order and the restaurant." Li Bai said with a smile.

Liu Che did as he was told.

Soon he found out what the Hero Order was all about.

He had not expected that the screen wall, which he had thought was just a decoration, would actually have such a function.

Since he could invite others to enter his own world, didn't it mean that he would have the opportunity to go to the future world, or even the fairyland mentioned by Li Bai and others? What excited him most was the explanation of the adventure team.

Even though it was just the first time he saw the description of the adventure team, he immediately thought of its wonderful uses.

He can easily hire hundreds of technological elites from the future world and have them help the Han Dynasty develop.

He looked around and didn't see many people, feeling a little regretful.

But he had heard from Li Bai that the other guests were all going to attend a banquet hosted by a god and were just not there at the moment.

"I have to take the initiative to build good relationships with everyone in the future," Liu Che thought to himself, "After I get to know them well, I can ask them to help me."

While thinking, he followed the two into the restaurant.

He was amazed by the various amazing ingredients in the restaurant, but compared with the fine wines and collections, they seemed a little mediocre.

Liu Che took a quick look around and declined Li Bai's offer to treat him to dinner.

He already knew Li Bai's identity.

A great poet with great talent and unprecedented influence in history, wandering in a foreign country, has little money.

As the King of the Han Dynasty, he would not fall to the point of asking others to treat him to a meal.

Besides, he couldn't wait to collect gold, sell it for time and space coins, and quickly buy those extraordinary wines.

After chatting with a few people for a few words, Liu Che went out and said hello to Yan Chixia, Ripley and others, and then left the tavern.

After returning to his bedroom, he immediately called the eunuch and asked him to withdraw the gold from the inner treasury.

"And take the gold from the national treasury as well!" he instructed.

In order to facilitate withdrawal, he drafted an imperial edict on the spot.

After all, moving gold on a large scale was no small matter, and the news soon spread inside and outside the palace, causing a sensation.

Some close ministers, including Wei Qing and Huo Qubing who were preparing to go to war, rushed over.

Even Queen Wei Zifu appeared before him.

Wei Zifu was of humble origins, yet was chosen by Emperor Liu Che as the queen. Naturally, they had a very close relationship.

She normally wouldn't interfere in state affairs, and the reason she came here was obviously because Liu Che's behavior was too worrying.

The impact of withdrawing so much gold would be so great that it might even shake the foundation of the Han Dynasty.

All the civil and military officials in the court who knew the news were very curious about what their emperor, who had always been wise, was going to do.

At this moment, Liu Che was standing in the center of the palace.

In front of him were boxes of golden gold, piled up like a small mountain.

All the ministers stood before him with worried looks on their faces.

Queen Wei Zifu also seemed hesitant to speak.

Seeing that most of the gold had been moved in, Liu Che put down the teacup in his hand and said with a smile: "You all asked me why I need so much gold..."

He looked around and saw that everyone was looking at him. He smiled mysteriously: "This is because..."

"I have made a deal with the gods!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he placed his hand on the nearest treasure chest, and with a thought, his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot.

Seeing this scene, everyone exclaimed in surprise.
