The banquet was placed in Li Zicheng's house, Song Yulian brought the dishes to the table, and stayed in the dining hall, as long as Li Zicheng did not call, she would not take the initiative to come out, and Chen Qiudie hid in the inner room at all and did not dare to come out.

He Xiaomi will carry back the four jars of distilled liquor, has already been placed on the left, after everyone sat down, he took out a jar, patted open the mud, the room suddenly floated out of a strange fragrance, Mu Qingshan's expression changed, but did not speak, Mao Xiang and Yao Ciping are both heroes of the wine altar, although they don't know that this is distilled spirit, but they also know that this kind of wine is absolutely rare, they sniffed, their eyes have long been on He Xiaomi, it is Liang Wencheng, and his eyes are dewy, and Li Zicheng looked at each other, and he fixed on the jar in He Xiaomi's hands.

He Xiaomi poured half a cup for everyone in turn, then put down the wine jar and retreated behind Li Zicheng.

Liang Wencheng said with a smile: "Xiaomi is too stingy, why is there only half a lamp?" Are you worried that your adults don't drink enough? It's rare to have a meal with a family, such a good wine, after all, it's not common! ”

He Xiaoxiao smiled innocently, "Adults drink first, and after the millet is finished, the millet will pour the wine!" ”

Mao Xiang and Yao Ciping secretly put their nostrils to the mouth of the lamp, took a deep breath, they had already been intoxicated by distilled wine, what Liang Wencheng and the others were saying, they didn't care at all.

Li Zicheng laughed, raised his glass and said, "Wencheng, owners, please, but this wine is too strong, it's better to take it easy!" ”

"Your Excellency, please!"

Everyone raised their glasses together, Li Zicheng tasted it carefully, and only drank a small sip, Liang Wencheng and Mu Qingshan also licked it with their tongues, and then a small sip, Mao Xiang and Yao Ciping sniffed, but they poured it down.

"Ahem...... cough ......" Mao Xiang and Yao Ciping coughed violently, but the distilled liquor had passed through their throats, but they couldn't spit it out, so they had to pinch their throats with their hands, and their old faces were red.

Li Zicheng laughed, "I have something to say first, don't blame me for not reminding me." ”

Mu Qingshan frowned, these two drunkards, as soon as they entered the table, they made people embarrassed, and they didn't bring them over if they knew it.

Mao Xiang finally relented, "My lord, this wine ...... This wine is even more powerful than the legendary 'burning knife'! ”

Yao Ciping followed: "Yes, this wine is too strong, so strong, the grass people have never drunk such wine, my lord, this wine is not produced in Xining, right?" ”

Li Zicheng said secretly, this kind of wine, those of you who have been in Xining all your life, naturally have never seen it, it is the current Daming, the manufacturer who will make distilled liquor, you can count it with your fingers, this kind of wine has a low output, the price is naturally high, Jiangnan and Jingshi are rich, it is not easy to buy a jar, not to mention the small Xining.

He looked at Mu Qingshan, "Does proprietor Mu think that this wine is produced in Xining?" ”

Mu Qingshan didn't dare to answer, hesitated for a long time, and said: "When the grass people went to Xi'an, they seemed to have heard of this kind of distilled spirit, but the grass people ...... The grass people haven't seen it with their own eyes, is it ...... Could it be that this wine was transported from Xi'an? ”

sighed in his heart, Li Zi became a businessman like himself for a banquet, did he deliberately bring wine from Xi'an? What did he have to do, was he grateful for his last donation to the school's house, or was he trying to do something else?

Mu Qingshan himself couldn't be sure whether this distilled liquor came from Xi'an, maybe it came from Jingshi, could it be that the military department brought it over by the way when escorting the food?

He glanced at Liang Wencheng with his eyes, and found that Liang Wencheng was also confused, knowing that he was also drinking distilled liquor for the first time, so he had to set his eyes on Li Zicheng, only Li Zicheng would have an answer.

"Haha," Li Zicheng laughed, and by the way, he took a piece of mutton and stuffed it into his mouth, and when he finished swallowing, Fang said: "Actually, this kind of distilled liquor is native to Xining. ”

Everyone suddenly had a black line on their faces, especially Mao Xiang and Yao Ciping, the two drunkards, "My lord, the grass people have drunk all the restaurants in Xining, and they have never seen this kind of distilled liquor, so I don't know where it is sold?" ”

"For sale? Soon it will be sold," Li Zicheng faced Mu Qingshan, "Lord Mu, last time I said, Xining is not without property, but it is just not developed." ”

Mu Qingshan faintly understood what Li Zicheng meant, today's banquet is mainly for these distilled spirits, is it ......

However, he still doesn't believe that he has been in business for many years, and has never found that Xining has produced signs of distilled spirits, although Daming has produced distilled spirits, but the technology is strictly confidential, "the son is not passed on to the son-in-law", those wine merchants, the family is big, the confidentiality measures are very sound, theft is almost impossible.

But last time Li Zicheng said it confidently, did he already know something? Mu Qingshan remembered that distilled liquor was just one of them, and according to Li Zicheng's meaning, there would be many such goods.

Thinking of this, he stood up and said, "Can you tell the grass people who produced this distilled spirit?" ”

"Don't sit down first, this is a family banquet, no need to be polite," Li Zicheng said with a smile: "Maybe proprietor Mu doesn't believe it, this wine is produced in Xining Weili." ”

"Weili?" Mu Qingshan fell into deep thought, could it be that his information was too ill-informed? Xining has produced such a good wine, and I still don't know at all, is he really old? It's only forty!

Liang Wencheng was also suspicious, Wei Li produced such distilled liquor, how could he, the prefect of Xining, not know? Moreover, he also holds the title of Wei Commander, he faintly feels that there must be something wrong with this, and this problem must be related to Li Zicheng, but since Li Zicheng doesn't say it, he can't ask directly, but he is also a person in Weili.

Li Zichengcai didn't care about everyone's suspicions, he just asked He Xiaomi to pour wine and fill it for everyone, "Don't worry, everyone has enough distilled liquor, and I promise to let everyone drink well!" ”

"My lord," Mu Qingshan raised his glass to Li Zicheng, took a big sip first, put down the wine cup, and said, "Can your lord tell the grass people, where can I buy this distilled spirit?" ”

"I forgot to tell you that this wine can't be bought for the time being," Li Zicheng said with a smile: "Does proprietor Mu have any ideas?" ”

"My lord, the grass people are businessmen, such a good wine, the grass people naturally refuse to let go," Mu Qingshan was a little confused, this kind of distilled liquor that can be marketed all over the country, is it just for his own enjoyment? Don't you want to put white flowers in the silver? "My lord, the grass people want to meet this proprietor, can you introduce the grass people to you? As for the ...... in the middle"

Li Zicheng stretched out his hand to stop and said, "Proprietor Mu, you have already seen this proprietor - I am the proprietor of distilled liquor!" ”

"Your Excellency?"

Not only Mao Xiang and Yao Ciping were surprised, but Liang Wencheng was also staring at Li Zicheng, only Mu Qingshan's face did not change, he kept thinking, what did Li Zicheng mean by talking so much to himself last time? It's a pity that I didn't care about it at the time, and now it seems that this Lord of Thousand Households is not as simple as he imagined.

Li Zicheng saw that Guan Zi was selling about the same, so he told the public about the production of distilled liquor, of course, the production process of distilled liquor, and the purchase of low-alcohol liquor, but he didn't say a word.

At that time, he asked Mu Qingshan to bring two friends with good alcohol to the banquet, in addition to the fact that this kind of wine master is a person who knows the goods, there is also a point, he estimates that at least one of these two people is Mu Qingshan's business friend, and it happens that through their two mouths, the production of distilled spirits will be widely publicized in Xining, which can be regarded as advertising distilled spirits for free.

Mu Qingshan's mind spun quickly for a while, and he bowed and said, "My lord, this wine ......."

Li Zicheng replied, "Ao, I have already chosen the name, it comes from the south bank of Huangshui, it is called 'Huangjiu', because it is produced in Xining, so the full name is 'Xining Huangjiu', which can be regarded as earning some fame for Xining." ”

At this moment, Mu Qingshan somewhat understood what Li Zicheng meant, "developing the Xining market" and creating goods produced in Xining, the two complement each other, but only one "Xining Huangjiu" is far from enough, Li Zicheng must have a backhand.

According to Li Zicheng's way of selling, the goods produced in the future must be rare in the market, "there is no market", as long as you can get these goods, you will definitely make a lot of money.

"My lord, the grass people...... That's not what the grass people meant," Mu Qingshan tentatively saw that Li Zicheng had been smiling, so he gritted his teeth and said: "This 'Xining Huang Wine', can you intend to sell it to the outside world?" ”

"Does proprietor Mu want to ask for the right to sell 'Xining Huang Liquor'?" Li Zicheng smiled slightly, "Let's talk about this tomorrow, let's only drink today, however, I have a limited amount of alcohol, if you want to accompany you, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you to have fun, this is a family banquet, you don't have to be restrained, if you like it, drink more." ”

Li Zicheng took a small sip every time, Mu Qingshan also drank lightly because he had something in his heart, but Liang Wencheng drank it happily.

Mao Xiang and Yao Ciping drank even more openly, until the bottom of the three altars.

This is a two-pound jar, three jars are six catties, this kind of distilled liquor, although it is slightly worse than the liquor degree of later generations, but it will not go low, seeing Mao Xiang and Yao Ciping gulping gulp water, they are all rushing to drink, Liang Wencheng is also old face flushed, and Mao Xiang, Yao Ciping called brothers, the cup came and went, Li Zicheng estimated that they were almost, and if they drank it again, it would not be good to get rid of people's lives, so he decisively stopped the banquet and asked the soldiers to send the four people home respectively.

Although Li Zicheng drank less than half a catty, he was also a little sleepy, so he went to Song Yulian's kang and fell asleep.

turned over, it was already evening, he heard some voices in his ears, and when he opened his eyes, it was Chen Qiudie, who had already put his head on Li Zicheng's face, and let Li Zicheng smell a faint fragrance through the hot breath exhaled by Qiong's nose.

Li Zicheng turned over and sat up, grasping her little hand, "Is it time for dinner?" ”

"Mother hasn't cooked dinner yet," Chen Qiudie withdrew her little hand and said shyly, "My lord......"

Li Zicheng felt that she was weird today, "What's the matter, Die'er?" ”

"Sir, you touch!" Chen Qiudie closed her eyes, dragged Zicheng's big hand into her arms, and put it on the cotton peach, Li Zicheng used a little force, grabbed a handful, and after a few days, the cotton peach was much softer, like a ripe red persimmon, but the size did not change significantly, and said: "Butterfly, you are ...... It's still too small, and when it grows to the same size as your mother, it will be able to serve adults. ”

Chen Qiudie suddenly puffed out her mouth and snorted coldly: "Adults rarely come to stay here recently, how can it grow up?" ”

Li Zicheng was speechless for a moment, pondered for a long time, and said, "Otherwise, if you come over at night, let's sleep together, and it will be warmer when there are more people!" ”

Chen Qiudie smiled and nodded her head vigorously.
