Chapter 53 Harsh government is fiercer than a tiger
- The next day
"Out of the cellar!!"
With a shout, dozens of shirtless strong men walked into the wine cellar and began to carry a jar of fine wine that had been sleeping for more than half a year, and these fine wines would soon be transported to various Qionglou.
"Wow, it's so fragrant, Brother Jiang, can we drink some today?" Zhang Xian smelled the aroma of wine, licked his lips with his tongue and asked Jiang De.
Jiang De waved his hand and said, "Yes, but you can't drink too much, your body hasn't grown yet, and you can drink more when it grows completely in the future, so let's do it, a few of you will have half a pot of wine together!" Couldn't be more. ”
A pot of wine weighs half a catty, and this half pot is divided into four small ones, and one person also has a small one or two. This wine is a high degree of liquor, which is enough for a few young men.
"What's so good about this wine... I'd rather like to drink that black sweet water from Brother Jiang. Tang Huai looked at Jiang De with some expectation, since Jiang De once gave him a drink of Coke, Tang Huai has never forgotten Coke.
"Okay, today is not only the day when the wine comes out of the cellar, but also the day when Brother Bo Ji leaves, so I'll give you another drink." Jiang De is in a good mood today, but he is very talkative.
As soon as they heard that there was Coke to drink, several teenagers stretched out their hands and said, "Brother Jiang, I want it too." ”
"Brother Jiang, I don't drink alcohol, I want to drink that yellow sweet water." Yue Fei also said timidly.
Jiang De looked at Yue Fei who was begging for orange juice and shook his head, after all, Yue Fei was still a child at this time.
Wang Ming walked over at this time, bowed his hands to Jiang De and Li Gang, and said, "Xiao Langjun, what came out of the back was the five-star flying wine, and I don't know if the taste is better than the wine Xiao Langjun took." ”
Jiang De shook his head and said, "There are too many conditions for making excellent wine, and this is the third time we have made wine, so I hope there will be a good result." ”
I saw that the next wine was no longer a red lid, but a cyan lid, and the shape of the jar was also decorated with a lot of patterns from the original.
Wang Ming picked up a jar and opened it, and suddenly the fragrance of wine wafted from a radius of tens of meters, Wang Ming took the spoon handed over to him, scooped a spoonful, smelled it first, and then handed it to Jiang De, Jiang De looked at the color of the wine, nodded and said, "The color is good, and the smell is also good, it depends on the taste and aftertaste." Saying that, Jiang De took a sip lightly, then closed his eyes and slowly experienced, and after a while, he opened his eyes and said, "Okay!" It worked!! This time the wine was much better than the previous two. ”
Jiang De still remembers the first time he came out of the wine, although he took the koji of the later generations and used the best grain, but the wine that came out in the end was really varied, miserable, and even sour wine, fortunately he tasted it in advance, otherwise he would have to smash the signboard of Qionglou if he sold it like this.
Wang Ming heard Jiang De say that this wine tasted good, and immediately took a sip excitedly, he closed his eyes, felt it slowly, and then laughed and said, "We succeeded!" We did it!! ”
Jiang De also smiled and said loudly: "All the brewing masters will be rewarded with three copper coins, and the bartender master will be rewarded with copper coins!" ”
This is really a reward, everyone cheered, Jiang De said to Li Gang, "Brother Bo Ji is just leaving, this wine is made, this is a good sign." ”
Li Gang said hesitantly: "Then the foolish brother is going to have a few more drinks." ”
Jiang De patted the wine jar and said, "I have a thousand jars of fine wine here, am I afraid that you will not succeed?" ”
Li Gang and Jiang De looked at each other and laughed, and with the distribution of the reward, the entire Sanjia Village fell into a sea of joy.
——
"Good wine, good wine." Li Gang took a sip of wine and a bite of food, he was really unhappy.
"Brother Boji, when our Qionglou opens to Kaifeng Mansion, you can also eat such fine wine and food in Kaifeng Mansion." Jiang De said with a smile.
Li Gang was overjoyed and said, "Then I'm waiting for you, how many branches has your Qionglou opened now?" ”
Jiang De looked at Wang Ming, Wang Ming said, "Not much, this restaurant business is different from that soybean oil, whether it is the location of the restaurant or the decoration is extremely time-consuming, up to now, we have only opened seven or eight branches, even the Qionglou of the famous mansion is still under renovation, not opened normally." ”
Jiang De waved his hand and said, "After the opening of the Daimyo's Mansion, our Qionglou will have experience in big cities, and the next step will be to Kaifeng, Brother Boji just wait." ”
Just as he was talking about being happy, a person suddenly came over and said, "Outside, Xiao Langjun, Cai Dutou is here." ”
Wang Ming laughed and said, "This Cai Dutou smells the smell, please, please." ”
After a while, Cai Dutou, who was holding a knife, walked over, followed by several officials and archers with swords in their hands.
Jiang De couldn't help frowning when he saw this posture, and Zhou Tong and Chen Guang, who were next to him, glanced at each other and gently moved the stool back.
"Cai Dutou, what's wrong with your big posture?" Wang Ming stepped forward and asked.
Cai Dutou first smelled it, and sighed, "What a fragrant wine, this is still your Qionglou's wine, hey, I was ordered by the county lord to report it, recently we are not very peaceful, there have been bandits, everyone should be careful, especially your three villages, which are notoriously wealthy, maybe they will become their targets." ”
"Bandits?" Zhou Tong asked, "What kind of bandit?" How did it come about? ”
Wang Ming pulled Cai Du's head to the table and poured him a glass of wine, as for the other official archers, they were taken care of, Cai Dutou thanked Wang Ming, and continued, "Speaking of which, everyone really knows this bandit, it is the backer bear who fought with Zhang Yuanwai last time, after this backer bear was beaten last time, the shopkeeper Han gave him some money, so he bought some land and planted it with a few brothers, and he was honest at first. ”
Zhang Da, who was drinking on the other side, touched his head and said, "In that case, why are you a strongman now?" ”
Cai Dutou continued, "Isn't this the new establishment of a field office last year, check the hidden field and the field deed everywhere, I don't know how, I fell in love with the land of the village where the backer bear is located, and it is also angry to say, the village is a hundred years old, and the field deed was first found in the Zhenzong period, but those Xu officials from Kaifeng actually said that it was not enough, and said that it had to be the land deed of the Tang Dynasty to do it, where did I get it." You didn't see that scene, the county lord is arguing with reason, but those people are all under the emperor's order, and the county lord finally stomped his feet angrily, but he was helpless. Eventually, the entire village was turned into public land, and the villagers were required to become tenants and pay taxes for many years.
The backer bear finally had a piece of his own land, naturally he didn't want to hand it over, so the Xu official let people fight, hehe, the Xu official also didn't know the details of the backer bear, thinking that the backer bear was an ordinary person, but the backer bear was beaten on fire, grabbed the hoe of others and killed the Xu official, and then pulled a few of his brothers up the mountain, it is said that now nearly 100 people have gathered, robbed several caravans. ”
Li Gang slammed the cup and scolded: "The harsh government is fiercer than the tiger, the traitors in the court and the central government are in charge, and the saints are blinded, so that this Qingping world will cause this disaster of swords." ”
