Amidst a chaotic rush for wine, many jostle to buy the limited supply. A stout steward named Lu manages to secure two jars, but the crowd's impatience grows as the wine quickly sells out. The shopkeeper opens a back door for buyers to leave, but it is immediately swarmed by those still hoping to purchase.

After all, a more important point is that if they can’t buy wine today, they will definitely be punished by their master when they return, which is something they absolutely don’t want to happen.

If they actually return and get scolded by their master because of this matter, it would make them very passive.

Seriously, if you can’t even buy a bottle of wine, what use is there for you as a butler?

It was precisely based on these considerations that these butlers, at this moment, were so angry, so reckless, as they charged inside, trying to purchase what they wanted.

However, facing such a situation, the Shopkeeper frowned straight away.

At this moment, looking at the group in front of him, he helplessly sighed to himself.

Originally, he didn’t want to make any special arrangements; he just wanted to do business steadily, but he never imagined these people could be so aggressive.

Even knowing the wine was sold out, yet they shamelessly lingered here unwilling to leave, so one shouldn’t blame him for being unkind.

Especially just now, when he had already told them multiple times that the daily sales are limited to 200 jars of wine, thus he had informed those outside about the unavailability, and advised them to come early tomorrow.

Regarding this point, he believed he had handled it reasonably.

In this way, he had communicated early to those outside that they certainly wouldn’t be able to buy wine today.

But persisting here in queue despite knowing it’s unavailable and recklessly causing trouble is their fault.

Thus, the Shopkeeper waved directly to someone behind him.

The next moment, from behind the shop, suddenly appeared a dozen soldiers holding waist knives.

And as these individuals emerged, the crowd outside immediately ceased their commotion, each one standing dumbfounded on the spot.

Moreover, instinctively, their steps shifted back a few paces, and some even turned away.

Of course, they were accustomed to soldiers, including now, when there were such individuals at their residence as well.

Precisely because of this, if they were ordinary soldiers, they wouldn’t react this way or leave so easily.

But what surprised them was the identity and the attire of these people.

Not to mention anything else, just the uniform these individuals wore was not something ordinary people could wear.

The attire belonged to the Emperor’s Personal Guards, now the Internal Guards.

The deterrent power of this attire when worn is not to be underestimated, and more importantly, these people represent the Emperor, so who among them would dare to step forward and offend? There are clear regulations, during the Internal Guards’ operations, if anyone obstructs them, they may be killed on the spot.

Let alone these ordinary butlers; even if their master came, he wouldn’t dare to act recklessly in front of these people.

As for the differences between the Internal Guards’ attire and that of ordinary soldiers?

The main difference is the attire consists of some black or green components.

Moreover, the weapons they carry are not ordinary tools; the blade is specially forged, claiming that it can cut through iron effortlessly. Even against ordinary weapons, a slight swing would directly sever them.

This sufficiently demonstrated its sharpness.

And the reason for such a sharp blade, of course, it came from His Majesty’s hand. As for where His Majesty acquired it, they didn’t know.

In summary, when these few individuals appeared, everyone was intimidated, everyone shut their mouths, and cautiously retreated outside.

They believed if they dared to continue causing trouble or shout loudly here, the next thing waiting for them would definitely be that incredibly sharp knife.

The most important point is, if they were truly dealt with today, even their master wouldn’t come to their rescue, and might even personally go to His Majesty to confess and apologize.

Considering the weight of drinking fine wine against other matters, they were able to tell the importance.

Therefore, after assessing the situation, they chose to quietly leave.

Just like that, in less than five minutes after these individuals appeared, all the butlers left dejectedly, whether they bought wine or not.

Actually, their presence only required a form of deterrence, and that was enough, enough to intimidate those insignificant ones.

Seeing this situation, the Shopkeeper also shook his head helplessly, while mumbling to himself:

"Hehe, truly refusing to walk while being led, retreating when hit!

No wonder I had to use some tricks here, it’s honestly because you were too unruly. If I let this go on, I wouldn’t be doing anything else today, hehe, the daily sale of 200 jars of wine is a regulation set by the Empress, how could it be changed by people like you."
