466. What friendship can we have?(1/2)
Dong Cheng's staff in the government office, as well as the county magistrates of Jiangning County and Shangyuan County under his rule, etc. After these people were guests in Jiangcheng Bo's house and tasted the strong liquor in person, in the capital, there was something about "Jiangcheng Bo".
There was a rumor that there was fine wine in the house, and there was a "new version" the next day.
This "new version" is more specific, more direct, and more likely to tug at the heartstrings of alcoholics.
In particular, he compares other wines to "horse urine", evaluates it as "the best wine in the world", and the specific feelings of tasting this wine, as well as "the smell of wine rushes to the forehead" and so on.
This is simply a blockbuster thrown into the deep water of the capital, causing huge waves!
Is the wine from Jiangcheng Bofu really that strong?
Is it really that delicious?
Does it really deserve all the praise?
For a time, there was a lot of heated discussion in Beijing, and it topped the "Hot Search List".
But no matter what, the drunkards in the capital were all excited and wanted to go to Jiangcheng Uncle's Mansion to explore it immediately.
However, the "nemesis" hat on Zhu Xiuyuan's head simply "dazzled the capital", and no one with any status or status in the court dared or refused to visit him.
The rest of the common people are not afraid, and are even very close to Jiangcheng Earl's Mansion. But they are not qualified, that is the Earl's Mansion! Not everyone can pay a visit!
So, the next morning, as soon as Zhu Xiuyuan woke up, he received a report from the servants in the mansion.
It is said that many people from the capital gathered on Xufu Street in front of the mansion. They all looked at the high wall of Jiangcheng Bofu and sniffed fiercely, unable to leave.
Zhu Xiuyuan burst into laughter, shook his head and said, "Don't these people have anything to do? They came outside the wall of my house early in the morning... They are really full and have nowhere to digest! Don't worry about them!"
Zhu Xiuyuan was going to the flower hall to have breakfast. He took two more steps and suddenly stopped when he thought of something.
"Hey, why am I so confused? They are so enthusiastic and come to 'watch the wall' early in the morning. They are obviously die-hard 'fans' of distilled liquor, so why don't I take this opportunity to build momentum... Although there have been people in Beijing recently
Rumors, but not enough, too original..."
Zhu Xiuyuan stood there, frowning in deep thought.
In the blink of an eye, he thought of a series of ways to build momentum.
In fact, for now, the "hot topic" of "Jiangcheng Bo's Mansion has fine wine" is already high enough. He only needs a little guidance and a lot of effort to achieve the best publicity effect.
By the way, you can also promote the restaurant that is about to open!
The restaurant that Zhu Xiuyuan bought was large in scale and in a good location, plus he had new dishes, artificial hot springs, and fine wine being brewed.
It is conceivable that with the blessing of these "hard goods", this restaurant will definitely be able to have a large number of guests and make a lot of money.
It will be the second cornucopia besides the tea house!
These earnings should be able to support the supply of a thousand generals...
"Guess who I am?"
While Zhu Xiuyuan was deep in thought, his vision suddenly went dark, and a pair of small hands covered his eyes.
At the same time, a voice came out from behind, holding its throat and pretending to be a disguise.
Zhu Xiuyuan woke up from his meditative state. When he heard the voice, even though it was disguised, he guessed that the person who blindfolded him could be other than Dong Shuzhen.
"Is it Qiuwen?" Zhu Xiuyuan smiled.
"No, that's wrong. Husband... guess again."
"That's Xia Wu!" Zhu Xiuyuan was in a good mood, and couldn't help but tease him, a woman with a childlike innocence.
"Wrong, wrong..."
Dong Shuzhen's voice became a little anxious and muffled, and she stamped her feet behind him repeatedly, and the hand covering his eyes shook up and down, "leaking out the light."
"Haha, madam, my husband guessed it was you a long time ago!"
Zhu Xiuyuan pinched her hands, turned around and looked around, and saw that it was Dong Shuzhen standing behind him, still holding her mouth and looking a little unhappy.
But when she heard Zhu Xiuyuan's words, a smile instantly broke out on her face, she shook hands into a fist, lightly punched Zhu Xiuyuan, and said angrily: "My husband is bullying me again!"
…
After breakfast, Dong Cheng and Dong Shuyu went about their business.
Zhu Xiuyuan went to the winery and continued to try to blend the wine.
Behind them were a group of oil bottles, including Dong Shuzhen, Qiu Wen, and Xia Wu.
After a while, a servant suddenly came to report: "Sir, Mr. Sikou, the young master of the Prison Department, has handed over a greeting card and is here to visit."
"Young Sikou?"
Zhu Xiuyuan was surprised. Ever since the rumor that "Jiangcheng Uncle's Mansion has fine wine" had a "new version", Zhu Xiuyuan had a premonition that some people might be unable to sit still.
For example, the ordinary people who are still looking outside the high walls of the uncle's mansion are the best examples.
Of course, there will be people who can't help but come to visit.
Zhu Xiuyuan just didn't expect that the first person to visit him would be Mr. Sikou, the young master of the Prison Department.
He had "cooperated" with Shao Sikou many times. Zhu Xiuyuan thought that his relationship with Shao Sikou was not a good one, but he was not an enemy either.
Zhu Xiuyuan was stunned for a moment and quickly figured it out.
Yes, his "popularity" in the court is so poor. The number of people who can come to the uncle's house as a guest is really pitiful. This young Sikou can barely make up the number!
"Invite the distinguished guests to the front hall, I will be there immediately." Zhu Xiuyuan finally ordered.
The servant bowed and said "yes" and then went down.
Zhu Xiuyuan returned to the main house, washed his face first, and after waiting for a while, he expected that the young Sikou had already entered the front hall of the main house, so Zhu Xiuyuan went to the front hall to meet the guests.
"Master Shao Sikou!"
"Uncle Jiang Cheng!"
In the front hall, the two exchanged greetings, and then the host and guest took their seats and served tea to entertain the guests.
"Haha, how are you doing, Uncle Jiangcheng? I heard that the uncle's house has newly brewed a kind of wine, which is very sweet and has been praised by the people in the market as 'the best wine in the world'..."
Shaosikou was tall and thin, with a scar on his face that extended from the base of his ear to the corner of his mouth.
His scar is very strange. When he smiles, the scar "dots" on his face, looking quite like a clown performing on stage.
And when he is angry, this scar becomes particularly gloomy and terrifying, and can even scare children into tears.
Now, Shao Sikou is smiling all over his face, and that scar looks particularly funny...
"Uncle Jiang Cheng knows something." Young Sikou rubbed his hands, "I am a well-known drinker in the capital. I can live without a daughter for a day, but I cannot live without drinking for a day! Haha..."
"Master Shao Sikou, the words of the market cannot be believed! Humble House has indeed brewed a new wine, but without the word 'good wine', the title of 'the best wine in the world' is made out of nothing. Don't believe it, don't believe it, Shao Sikou
Sir, please do not listen to these false rumors."
Zhu Xiuyuan waved his hands repeatedly, showing his modesty.
"Hey, Uncle Jiang Cheng, no matter how it is, can you... let me try it first?" Shao Sikou rubbed his hands, stood up from his seat, walked two steps, came to Zhu Xiuyuan's seat, and got very close.
.
"Uncle Jiangcheng, I have been fond of fine wines since I was young. This capital city is home to fine wines from all over the world, and I have tasted every one of them... Now that the fine wine has been newly brewed in my uncle's house, and it is spreading so well, I really can't bear it.
Can’t stand it anymore…”
"I'm not afraid of Uncle Jiang Cheng's jokes. I'm so excited after listening to those market rumors!"
The more Shao Sikou talked, the more excited he became, and he even put his arm around Zhu Xiuyuan's shoulders. To outsiders, one must think that the two of them were close and good brothers.
"Master Shao Sikou, please calm down first!"
Zhu Xiuyuan was not very used to holding hands with him, so he pushed him away with one hand, unable to hide a look of disgust on his face.
This young Sikou was indeed a good drinker. As soon as he came closer, Zhu Xiuyuan could smell the faint smell of wine, and the smell of wine had been "fermented" on him for a long time.
Coupled with the smell of sweat...Tsk, Zhu Xiuyuan felt that his nose had been violated.
Zhu Xiuyuan sat still and pushed him away.
Shao Sikou looked down at the hand that was still on his body, and a smile broke out on Scar's face again.
"My uncle, what's our relationship..." He was about to get close.
"What kind of friendship do we have? What kind of friendship can we have?"
Zhu Xiuyuan was not happy when he heard this and made two consecutive sentences.
"Eh... uh... Uncle Jiang Cheng, we have jointly supervised the handling of three shocking cases, eradicated countless corrupt officials, and restored a bright future to my family..."
"Shut up!"
The corners of Zhu Xiuyuan's mouth twitched slightly. When he mentioned this, Zhu Xiuyuan's head hurt.
Shao Sikou immediately shut up and looked at him blankly.
"Master Shao Sikou, when you entered the mansion just now, didn't you notice that there were only a few horses and horses in front of the door of my mansion? Haha, this is all thanks to your Majesty! What kind of friendship do you think we can have?"
Those three major cases were so violent, involving thousands of people... that he even wore the hat of "nemesis", which was made of iron, and he didn't know if he could take it off in this life.
Zhu Xiuyuan blames this young Sikou for all of this!
To be continued...
