Looking at the gifts in the warehouse, Wen Qihang was a little stunned, and Zheng Zhutou smiled happily. After all, this was the first time he had seen a colleague give Wen Qihang a gift.

Etiquette is a compulsory course in Chinese social life, otherwise you will live as a single husband, and usually the fate of such people will be very miserable.

Zheng Zhutou was originally very worried about making enemies everywhere like Wen Qihang, and he didn't know how to make colleagues, and in the end he would become a lone husband and not die well.

Now that I see that the nobles in the Beijing Division have finally begun to give gifts to Wen Qihang, my heart will naturally blossom. As long as Wen Qihang can maintain the current momentum, according to his age, sooner or later he will enter the center of the imperial court and rank as the third duke.

"San Lang, when did we ever produce the wine 'Burning Knife' in our house?" Zheng Zhutou was still looking at the gifts in the warehouse, and asked Wen Qihang with the stone that brought the gift list to count the gifts.

Hearing the stone's question, Wen Qihang couldn't help coughing lightly. At that time, in order to cover up the past, the name of the wine was just casually said. Do you want to tell that group of gentlemen that they drink the alcohol they have refined themselves, and as long as they are careless, they will die of alcohol poisoning, then this feud will be great.

"In the future, be careful not to put the alcohol we refine with the blended liquor, which is very dangerous." Wen Qihang replied to the question.

There are no servants in the palace, everything has to be done by yourself, and you have to entertain the group of gentlemen, of course, there will be no exception.

A few days ago, Wen Qihang entertained them for dinner, and naturally one person could not support so many people, so he let them go to the treasury to fetch wine by themselves.

This group of gentlemen, of course, smelled some kind of wine, so they took that kind of wine, and it almost happened.

"Okay." Shi Ying said: "But those young masters in the Beijing Division, I want to ask if there is any surplus of burning knives in our house, and I want to ask for some, saying that they are drinking and drinking." ”

"........ "I really don't think I'm dying fast enough!" If alcohol refining fails, it is also alcohol, can it be drunk as wine? Even if it is not industrial alcohol that is refined now, but pure grain, it is very dangerous!

Wen Qihang thought for a while and said: "Give them some blended wine, and give them a name, called 'Three Bowls Don't Serve', and say that if you want to drink burning knives, you can only do it after passing this level." ”

If you want to drink 70 degrees of alcohol, it's not impossible, but the premise is that you must have a good amount of alcohol, otherwise you will really drink dead people if you directly get started with 70 degrees of alcohol.

"Okay then." The stone answered, and began to count the gifts according to the gift list.

Seeing that the stone was already counting the gifts according to the gift list, and had just sketched a piece of Tang Sancai's pottery, Zheng Zhutou stepped forward and gently stroked the camel-shaped Tang Sancai and said enviously to Wen Qihang: "Sir, this is a good thing, Tang Sancai in the former Tang Dynasty, there are not many surviving now." ”

"Isn't this thing for burial?" Smelling Qihang pouted. Tang Sancai was indeed a good thing in later generations, and it was priceless, but in the early Song Dynasty, it was completely worthless.

"........" heard Wen Qihang's unobstructed mouth, and Zheng Zhutou felt that his heart was twitching. Hurriedly rubbed his chest with his hand, took a deep breath, and relieved his somewhat painful heart, and then said: "Sir, the main thing is the heart, and the heart is very important." ”

"Yes! Novelty is really important, this is not an antique, or a calligraphy and painting, there is really no novelty at all. Looking at the gifts in a warehouse, either antiques or calligraphy and paintings, he couldn't help but sigh when he heard Qihang.

"........" chatted with Wen Qihang, it was so unpleasant, Zheng Zhutou wiped his face and said: "Sir, you are an official of the imperial court, and those nobles are also officials of the imperial court. ”

Zheng Zhutou knew Wen Qihang's thoughts very well, but for some reason, Wen Qihang was not interested in these antiques at all, and he seemed to be more willing to accept money.

In fact, Zheng Zhutou still doesn't understand Wen Qihang's feelings, in later generations, for antiques, Wen Qihang is still very interested, but since he came to this ancient time, he has completely lost interest in antiques.

As long as you think about it, you can know that when you open your eyes every day, all you see are antiquities, and even pick up a broken piece of your head from the street, which is all antiquities from the pre-Tang Dynasty, who can still be interested in this.

It can be seen that the antique thing is the real interpretation of what is called the truth that rare things are expensive.

"Well, sooner or later, I'll have to return it anyway." Wen Qihang said indifferently. Gifts are still exchanged! Isn't it that you send me today, and I will send you tomorrow, and finally turned around and found that the thing I gave back to me was back in my hands.

"........" Zheng Zhutou wanted to distinguish it, but found that Wen Qihang seemed to be very reasonable. Now these things seem to belong to the Jue Mansion, but sooner or later, they will all have to be sent out again.

"Sir, are you really going to take those noble sons to prepare this banquet?" Seeing that Wen Qihang was not interested in these things, Zheng Zhutou walked out of the warehouse with Wen Qihang, and the topic also shifted to the preparation of the banquet.

"yes!" Wen Qihang nodded.

"When it comes to eating and drinking........ Those noble sons must be very good. Zheng Zhutou said worriedly: "But when it comes to cooking, those noble sons are probably not enough, right?" In case you don't prepare properly and offend Your Majesty and the generals, I'm afraid you won't be able to explain it, sir, right? ”

Wen Qihang chuckled and said, "If the lord and I are alone to prepare this banquet, once there is any mistake, then it will really be impossible to eat and walk around." And now, there are so many black pots........ Strong backer, sir, I am really safe! ”

"........" Zheng Zhutou was sure that he had heard it correctly, this damn Wen Qihang had just said the word black pot. This is going to make trouble! Zheng Zhutou suddenly began to worry, he had just eased the tense relationship with those nobles, if they were to pit their children again, then they didn't have to think about it to know that this feud must be bigger.

Seeing Zheng Zhutou's surprised expression, he laughed and continued: "Besides, this son cooks a meal for Lao Tzu, no matter how you say it, it is a sign of filial piety, even if it is unpalatable, presumably Your Majesty and the generals will not blame it." ”

"Sir, you must think twice!" Zheng Zhutou didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the smelling hoist. But his instinct to catch fast told him that he must be holding back when he smelled Qihang, otherwise when did this guy become so anxious about what others were anxious about.

"What am I thinking?" Wen Qihang wondered.

"Of course it's a matter of thinking twice, about holding a banquet?" Zheng Zhutou said anxiously.

"What's the use of me thinking twice, Your Majesty's decree has already been issued, can I still refuse?" Smell the sail stall.

"It's not about this, it's about you taking those noble children to cook." Zheng Zhutou said incoherently.

"The gifts have been sent, and now I don't agree with it again, and I regret it, which makes me lord, how will I behave in the future?" Wen Qihang said angrily.

“........”

Seeing that Zheng Zhutou was a little flustered, Wen Qihang said with relief: "Okay, there's nothing to worry about, isn't it just cooking a meal!" Besides, the focus this time is not on the banquet. ”

"Ahh

It's okay if you don't feel relieved when you hear Qihang, but this relief makes Zheng Zhutou even more worried. Sure enough, the emperor invited a guest, and there was no good banquet, and this aspect of eating would never be the most important thing.
