Chapter 1143: New Year's Greetings to Old Chen

Soon, a staff member brought up all the New Year's goods brought by Xiao Ping and placed them in front of Chen Lao in the same way. Since he was sending New Year's goods, Xiao Ping also adhered to the tradition, and brought all the specialties from the farm and the demon refining pot. For example, jade vegetables, new varieties of rice, green-shell eggs, green-shell chickens, a dozen fresh peaches, and a few two-headed abalones are not much different from last year. The only difference is that this year, Xiao Ping also brought a small barrel of home-brewed wine to Chen Lao.

This barrel of wine aroused the interest of the old man, and asked the staff to move to the table and look at the barrel and said, "This seems to be a real oak barrel, it is quite authentic!"

Xiao Ping also gave away several barrels of red wine when he paid New Year's greetings before. It's a pity that those people didn't have much research on wine before, and they couldn't see the goodness of red wine and wine barrels, which made Xiao Ping feel like a pearl covered with dust.

But Old Chen's words lifted Xiao Ping's spirits, and he said with a smile: "It turns out that you are also an expert, and you can see at a glance that this is a real oak barrel!"

"When I was young, I was quite interested in wine!" said to the staff, "Since it is Xiao Xiao's own wine, I should try it, go get two glasses." ”

The staff went to get the glass, and Xiao Ping helped Chen Lao open the seal of the barrel. At this time, Long Wu came in and reported to Chen Lao in a low voice: "Chen Lao, Su Xiong is outside, saying that he wants to come to you to pay New Year's greetings." ”

After thinking for a while, Chen Lao said to Long Wu: "Let him come in." ”

Su Xiong arrived soon, and saw that Xiao Ping was also stunned for a moment, but soon greeted Chen Lao with a calm expression. After greeting Chen Lao, he said to Xiao Ping with a smile: "I didn't expect Xiao Xiao to be there." What a blessing!"

Speaking from the heart, Xiao Ping saw that Su Xiong was a little awkward. You must know that other people's daughters are in public, claiming that Xiao Ping is her boyfriend. If Su Xiong is serious. If Xiao Ping was asked to call him his father-in-law for life, it would be really embarrassing.

However, Su Xiong had already greeted Xiao Ping. Naturally, he couldn't ignore it, so he had to smile reluctantly: "Hello Mr. Su, it's been a long time." ”

Chen Lao watched Xiao Ping and Su Xiong greet him with interest, and after a while, he said with a smile: "Xiao Su, you came just in time, Xiao Xiao brought a barrel of wine made by himself, you have studied wine, let's taste it together!"

Although Xiao Ping and Su Xiong are dozens of years apart, they have become Xiao Xiaosu in Chen Lao's mouth. However, Old Chen's age and qualifications are placed here, and the two of them didn't feel anything wrong when they heard it.

Su Xiongle said happily: "Xiao Xiao's own wine, then I must taste it!"

As Chen Lao said. Su Xiong is a keen student of wine and has always enjoyed tasting all kinds of good wines. Su Xiong also knew that Xiao Ping had a high achievement in the food industry, and since he was able to give his home-brewed red wine to Chen Lao, it showed that he was very confident in the quality of the wine, and he was also very much looking forward to it.

While the three of them were talking, the staff had already poured the wine. Su Xiong first took a glass to Chen Lao, and then couldn't wait to pick up another glass and put it under his nose to smell it deeply, and immediately said with joy on his face: "Xiao Xiao's wine is really extraordinary, just smell the aroma of this wine and know that it is a good wine!"

Chen Lao also agreed: "Yes. This fragrance is really good, but I don't know how it tastes. ”

Xiao Ping smiled and said, "You two are experts, don't you know if you taste it?"

"Haha, Xiao Xiao is right. Everything is still good for the body. Chen Lao agreed with Xiao Ping's words, and then took the lead in tasting a sip of red wine, closing his eyes slightly and muttering.

Su Xiong next to him was also a little impatient when he saw it. Hurriedly picked up the wine glass and took a sip. As soon as the wine entered Su Xiong's mouth, he couldn't help but show an intoxicated look. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: "Good wine!"

To be honest, Su Xiong is also very good at studying red wine, in terms of his financial resources and power. There are already a lot of top wines that I have tasted. However, after tasting Xiao Ping's self-brewed red wine, Su Xiong was surprised to find that among the good wines he had drunk before, none of them could be compared with it! If Su Xiong wanted to evaluate it, this was definitely the best red wine he had ever drunk.

Chen Lao and Su Xiong were both surprised by the quality of the red wine, and the two slowly sipped the red wine in their glasses, and did not speak for a while.

It wasn't until he drank all the red wine in the cup that Chen Lao was the first to speak: "Well, Xiao Xiao's wine is really good!"

Su Xiong also nodded again and again: "It is indeed a good wine, I didn't expect Xiao Xiao's winemaking skills to be so high!"

Looking at the surprised expressions of the two, Xiao Ping was also very happy. A few years ago, he sent a circle of red wine, and finally met two knowledgeable people, which made him feel like he had met a bosom friend.

Of course, Xiao Ping didn't show a smug or complacent expression in front of Chen Lao, but just smiled modestly: "It's okay to brew and play, you think it tastes good." ”

Of course, Chen Lao heard it, Xiao Ping said this just out of modesty, and said with a smile: "This gift is good, I can use it to entertain guests during the New Year!"

It is definitely a great honor for red wine to be evaluated like this by Chen Lao. If this news spreads, Xiao Ping's own batch of red wine will definitely sell like crazy.

However, Xiao Ping would never take out this batch of wine to sell, and he had no idea of using Old Chen's fame to hype it up at all. Chen Lao was also very aware of this, so he didn't have any scruples when talking to Xiao Ping. If it was someone else, Chen Lao would never have shown such a clear praise.

Su Xiong looked at Xiao Ping with interest next to him and said, "I'm better to come early than to come coincidentally, I'm going to speak directly, Xiao Xiao, is there any share of this wine?"

Xiao Ping came to the capital to pay New Year's greetings, and he originally brought a few more New Year's goods just in case. Since Su Xiong has spoken, of course he immediately smiled and said, "Since Mr. Su has spoken, of course there is no problem, I will send the wine to the house tomorrow." ”

Su Xiong said happily: "Then I'm welcome, thank you, Xiao Xiao!"

Chen Lao is short of time, and even if the Spring Festival is approaching, there are still many official affairs to deal with. So Xiao Ping and Su Xiong just sat down for a while, and then left at the same time.

The next day, Xiao Ping delivered two barrels of red wine to Su Xiong's residence in the capital. Su Xiong is indeed a good drinker, and he actually waited for him at home in person.

Seeing Xiao Ping bring the wine, Su Xiong was also so happy that he smiled, and insisted on inviting Xiao Ping to sit at home. Xiao Ping couldn't refuse, so he could only accept Su Xiong's invitation.

Su Xiong's residence is located in the suburbs of the capital, and the residence of a rich man like him is of course very luxurious, with an area of several acres of land in the courtyard alone. Among them, rockeries, pools, pavilions and pavilions are complete, and the three-story villa is extremely luxurious, and all of them are Chinese furniture. Although Xiao Ping doesn't know much about these, he can also see that it is definitely valuable.

However, Xiao Ping is also a person who is used to seeing the world, and Su Xiong's luxury villa did not surprise him much. Su Xiong invited Xiao Ping to sit down, and said with a smile: "Such a good wine is rare, I really want to thank you this time, Xiao Xiao." ”

Xiao Ping smiled: "Mr. Su, you are too polite, these wines are brewed in my spare time to pass the time, and they were originally intended to be given as gifts to relatives and friends." ”

Su Xiong asked tentatively: "I don't know if you have any plans to sell these red wines, if so, I am willing to buy them all." ”

Su Xiong only said that he wanted to buy red wine, and did not mention the price at all. This is not because Su Xiong is stingy, but no matter what price Xiao Ping opens, he will agree.

Su Xiong has studied red wine very deeply, and is sure that the quality of these red wines has reached the top level, and such wines are worth buying even if they are a little more expensive. In fact, Su Xiong does not intend to resell the wine, but will use it as his own collection to entertain or give to important guests.

However, to Su Xiong's disappointment, Xiao Ping quickly shook his head and said: "I brewed wine entirely out of interest, and I only brewed one barrel in total, which is enough to send to relatives and friends during the New Year's holidays." There's really not much to sell, I'm really sorry, Mr. Su. ”

Hearing Xiao Ping say this, Su Xiong naturally didn't want to make any more requests, so he could only shake his head with some regret and said: "This wine is indeed very good, but the production is too small, it's a pity!"

However, Su Xiong is also a person who can afford to let go, and he didn't dwell too much on this matter, but quickly said to Xiao Ping with a wry smile: "Xiao Xiao, I am a good wine person, and now I have tasted such a good wine, and I will have no taste for drinking other red wine in the future, you see ......."

Xiao Ping understood what Su Xiong meant, and immediately continued with a smile: "Mr. Su, don't worry, as long as I still make wine next year, I will still send you two small barrels before the Spring Festival." ”

Su Xiong was very happy to hear this, and immediately laughed and said, "Haha, then I'm welcome!"

Being able to get two small barrels of such excellent red wine every year certainly made Su Xiong very happy. And Xiao Ping, who delivered the wine, was also in a good mood, and smiled very happily like Su Xiong.

Although home-brewed red wine is also very precious, Xiao Ping was not going to sell it for money, but to give it away to build his own network. Just two barrels of red wine a year can have a good relationship with the famous business predator Su Xiong, which is also very worthwhile in Xiao Ping's opinion.

What's more, Su Xiong is still Su Chenlin's father, Xiao Ping feels that now that he has a good relationship with him, people are at least embarrassed to hold him accountable for breaking the marriage contract between Su Chenlin and Wang Zhen. Although Su Chenlin did all this thing, Xiao Ping believed that if Su Xiong really wanted to find someone to vent his anger, he would definitely find himself and would not deal with his daughter.

Su Xiong, who got Xiao Ping's promise, was in a very good mood, and taking advantage of the opportunity when the atmosphere was very harmonious, he said to Xiao Ping half-truthfully: "Xiao Xiao, there is something I have to criticize you." You don't seem to be reliable in your words sometimes, and you haven't answered what you promised me last time, what the hell is going on?" (To be continued......)
