Volume 2 Debt Repayment Chapter 123 High Wine Auction

Every day, he got up early, first asked his eldest grandson to say goodbye, and then went to the hospital for a lot of time, and at nearly ten o'clock, Li Chengyang came to the restaurant unhurriedly.

Today, the restaurant is officially opened, and all the preparations that should be made are done, just waiting for Li Chengyang to arrive, even if everything is ready.

Passing by the inn where Wang Xiao stayed, there was a carriage just stopped at the door of the inn, and an old man got out of the carriage tremblingly, I don't know if it was old or what's going on, and the walking posture was always a little weird.

Li Chengyang looked at the carriage, tilted his head and smiled, and walked to the restaurant.

Today's restaurant is particularly lively, different from the previous three days, many of the people guarding the door of the restaurant today are people from the Guogong Mansion, a few gentlemen with a group of family members in the restaurant in and out of the restaurant, a lot of dignitaries and nobles have received the news of the haunting of the Yuelai Restaurant, and have sent people and even personally brought people to support the scene.

Several people from the Guogong family are here, which means that the backstage of this restaurant is not ordinary, just to support a scene, it is best to brush up on the sense of existence in front of a few young masters, if you can connect with the Guogong Mansion through here, it will make a lot of money.

Li Chengyang looked at the carriage with no end in sight, and scratched his head: what did he work so hard so hard to do before was a free tasting, and he was feasting the old people with great fanfare? Just called Xiao Cheng a few people, what is the effect worse than that?

Regret, I still haven't fully adapted to my identity, the set dedicated to ordinary people in my previous life is completely different from the current one, like advertising, you can change the way, and even he can leak his identity to drive the restaurant, as long as he doesn't say that the restaurant is his home, then it's no problem.

Li Chengyang is now extremely sorry for the silver spent three days ago, and because of this, Li Yi's last bit of belongings was also asked by him.

The front door was crowded, so I could only go around to the back door, and I said to Lao Zhao to open it and went into the basement.

Lao Zhao opened the main door: "Ignite firecrackers."

In the crackling sound, a group of gentlemen led by Xiao Cheng rushed in, patting Lao Zhao's shoulder when they passed by Lao Zhao's side, and some wanted to salute Lao Zhao without knowing the severity, and were dragged back by sensible people for a good fight.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant will be saluted to the little gentlemen, if this is really done, then the matter will not leak.

The first batch of people went in, and the people behind saw the situation in their eyes, and they had a bottom in their hearts, and the people who could make a few boys treat them so respectfully were either great themselves or great backstage, and they couldn't afford to mess with them no matter what.

When Xiao Cheng and the others went upstairs, the rest of the people took steps one after another, whether they were officials or businessmen, they all arched solemnly in front of Lao Zhao, and then followed the guidance of the waiter to sit down.

Li Chengyang listened to people's rounds, his heart was settled, he had no intention of planting willows and willows, his goal was achieved, the scene was all with some identities, with the spread of this situation, Yuelai Restaurant will become famous in the future and become a new meeting place for dignitaries.

When everyone had almost arrived, Li Chengyang walked out of the basement and whispered a few words to Lao Zhao, who had just come back, before going upstairs and entering the private room.

Lao Zhao came to the stage, pressed his hand, and waited for the scene to calm down, then cleared his throat and spoke:

"Everyone, the store has just opened, thank you for coming to cheer, I can't thank you, there will be more than ten kinds of new dishes today, each of which is unique at this time, the restaurant has collected a month's worth of materials to come up with such a little thing, and today the wine is 5% off, you just care about drinking a good time."

After a pause, the cheers in the audience were quiet, and he said with a mysterious face: "Not only that, but my family also has the ancestral secret recipe to make the divine wine, because the materials needed are precious, and now the small shop is bankrupt and only makes a pot, not much, just two catties, this pot of wine, the reserve price is one thousand taels, and it will be sold in a while, you may have seen that the shop has nobles, so don't worry about being deceived, several little grandfathers are willing to come to the scene, and the shop does not dare to play tricks."

As soon as the words fell, there was an uproar below, no one had ever heard of a fine wine that could be worth a thousand gold, Lao Zhao saw that he took out a jade wine jug from the kitchen this time, and stood on the stage again: "Everyone is going to ask again, how can there be such an expensive wine in this world, then the old man will first tell me what this wine is made of."

Take out a small wine glass, go in the shallow half glass, and let the waiter take the half glass and circle around the hall.

Wherever the waiter went, a strong smell of wine followed, and many of the wine insects present tried to sniff their noses, even if they could smell the wine more.

Lao Zhao saw that the effect he needed had been achieved, and the waiter's circle was over, so he shook the jade pot in his hand, and the wine in it was crystal clear by the jade pot body, and there was no impurity.

This pot is still Li Chengyang's treasure stolen from Li Shimin, so it's strange that it can be flawed.

"This wine is not brewed from ordinary grains, this is my family's ancestral secret recipe, using ninety-nine eighty-one medicinal materials, plus thirty-six kinds of spices, and finally using the dew that grows on the petals every morning as the base, after countless people for a whole year, the money for medicinal materials alone, that is not enough" Speaking of this, Lao Zhao changed his tone firmly:

"But, isn't this a small restaurant opened, just thinking about relying on this wine to spread the fame, after so many people's efforts, in the end only got such two catties of wine, not only unprecedented good wine, according to the records of my ancestral hometown, but also to prolong life, if it is not for the little old man to open this restaurant, it will not be killed to sell it, on this wine, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is one or two thousand gold, the old man took it out, just to ask for a lottery, everyone please."

After speaking, he put the wine jug on the table, hid his face and left, it seemed that his flesh was really painful.

How can there be any secret recipe, that is, last night Li Chengyang ordered Lao Zhao to steam two tanks of wine, which added up to only 100 yuan.

I have always wanted to get the liquor out before, just according to the martial heroic atmosphere of Datang, I don't have to worry about the high degree of wine not being sold at a good price, as far as the current situation is concerned, the highest degree of Sanle pulp is not more than 20 degrees, once the liquor above 40 degrees appears, the scene does not need to think about how hot it will be.

But then this idea was broken, or temporarily suppressed, now the people have little food, and in a few years they will fight the Turks, once the liquor appears, a large amount of food will be consumed, food is the root of everything, it can't be time to fight, let one person carry two jars of wine to fight with people.

But a small amount of doing is different, even special utensils are not needed, find a pot, pour wine, burn the fire, keep the wine will be open, the alcohol in the wine will naturally evaporate, put an iron plate on the pot or something to condense it.

The people in the audience have begun to tentatively ask for the price, and the first ones who can't bear it are the drunkards who have been hooked by the smell of wine, but no one has doubled it at once or something, and they are all shouting up in one or two.

Li Chengyang sat down on the main seat in the private room, pulled Xiao Cheng, who was stretching his neck to watch the excitement, took out a pot of wine from his arms, said a few words to him in his ear, and then sat down: "You have done this well, I will send a jar to your house when you go back, your father will definitely be reluctant to beat you in the future."

Xiao Cheng's eyes lit up, he took the wine jug handed over by Li Chengyang, lifted the lid and smelled it, and the pungent aroma of wine made him sneeze loudly.

The strong aroma of wine also reached the noses of the rest of the gentlemen, shouting that Li Chengyang was not righteous, and tried to come up and snatch the wine jug in Xiao Cheng's hand.

"Mine, it's all mine, if you want to, go to His Highness, I want to keep this pot of wine for myself and drink it slowly" Xiao Cheng raised the jug above his head, constantly dodging the claws that swung at him.

"Brother Cheng, I'll smell it and promise not to drink it" Yu Chi Baolin had a sip on the corner of his mouth, and kept reaching for the wine jug.

"I'll just take a sip, take a small sip" Changsun Chong couldn't lift his arm to this unlucky thing, so he could only pull the corner of Xiao Cheng's clothes, and at the same time open a big mouth to show Xiao Cheng his mouth with a huge capacity.

Xiao Cheng was surrounded in the middle, rushing left and right to rush out of the encirclement, looked up at the jade pot with a little impurities, sighed, and gritted his teeth and threw the wine pot downstairs through the window of the private room.

The two-pound wine jug, the size of two Coke bottles, flew out of Xiao Cheng's hand and landed straight on the platform where Lao Zhao was standing before.

There was a crisp sound, and then the whole hall was gradually filled with the aroma of wine.

Li Chengyang smelled the wine in his nose and nodded with satisfaction, this wine tastes big after it is heated.

"Straight thief, rob, rob, I don't have to rob now, I bought it after I took out all the money, this is going to be given to my father, what a good baby, don't divide it up and down today, don't think about going out of any of you."

There was a burst of shouting from the No. 1 private room of the Son of Heaven, and then there was a clanging sound of smashing.

"This is Cheng Xiaogong," someone familiar with Xiao Cheng said.

"I'll pay two thousand taels" When a merchant heard this, he immediately raised his hand and doubled the price.

Someone looked at the person who shouted the price, and then shouted: "I said shopkeeper Liu, don't you never drink, why do you still pay such a big price to buy it now, don't think I don't know what you think, I'll pay three thousand taels."

"Four thousand taels, these four thousand can have a relationship with the little grandfather, then it is really earned."

"Four thousand three hundred taels, don't think that something happens to you, I will send this wine to Old Man Cheng's mansion even if I am bankrupt today."

"Five thousand taels, this wine smells like immortal wine, but it was taken by you laymen to do that dirty and dirty thing in vain, it is really blind to this pot of good wine" The well-dressed scribe raised his hand, and the wine worm in his heart was about to pop out.

"Ten thousand taels, who can have more than me" An old man stood up tremblingly, and a bright king character embroidered on the hem of his clothes leaked out, and the hall was silent.

After waiting for a long time and not the next person continued to bid, Lao Zhao put away the look of a fool on his face, and then stepped onto the stage again:

"Well, this pot of wine finally belongs to this one, oh, this old gentleman of the Wang family, old gentleman, I don't have a name for this wine until now, I might as well ask the old gentleman to name it, it can be regarded as a good story."

The old man turned out the wine handed over by Lao Zhao, pulled out the cork and smelled it: "Good fragrant wine, just call it really fragrant."

Lao Zhao stared at the boss with a pair of eyes, secretly poked and stepped on the old man's foot, and then took the old man's hand: "This old gentleman said, it is called gentleman's wine, and in the future, there will be a different number of gentlemen's wine sold in the restaurant every month, at most it will not exceed five catties per month, this month's wine has been bought by this old gentleman and the master upstairs, you will come early next morning, and serve the food."

The old man's beard was half blown, and after reacting, he quickly covered his flying beard, and slowly walked out of the restaurant with a pot of wine: "I'll leave first, go back and taste this gentleman's wine, and go back to Wang's house to get the 10,000 taels, I will say hello to them in advance."
