Chapter 88: Ten Thousand Wine Fights
"Phew, lackey." Cheng Wu spat unceremoniously at Wei Yong's back, the voice was still very loud, the spit was about to spit on Wei Yong's back, Wei Yong staggered, but he didn't dare to stop or look back, but accelerated his pace and disappeared quickly.
Li Xiaochong gave up his hand to a few people, "Thank you to a few brothers for helping each other today, otherwise if you are targeted by this person, you will have to shed your skin if you don't die." ”
"Don't worry, with the help of my brothers, who would dare to take it by force like this?"
"I'm afraid that this Wei Yong will not be willing to go back, or that the person behind him will not be reconciled." Li Xiao heard Wei Yong's words Gaoyang clearly just now, Gaoyang, it must be Princess Gaoyang.
This can be regarded as the most famous princess in the early Tang Dynasty, she is simply a bad example of a princess, arrogant and indulgent, uninhibited, to put it nicely, it is a pioneer in the pursuit of freedom, and if it is ugly, it is a slut.
This is really a person who doesn't do not die, and the husband who originally married is still okay, no matter what the family background or anything is, but he just wants to do it. However, it's not that a family doesn't enter the door, and the one she married is indeed the same superb, the Tang Cuckold King.
Li Xiao remembered that the two Gao Yang couples seemed to be involved in some kind of rebellion case later, and they were finally cut down, and even implicated the Fang family.
But when exactly when she happened, Li Xiao doesn't remember very clearly, anyway, this is a landmine, and it may explode at any time.
Not to mention that Wei Yong offered a condition like 19 points today, which is impossible for people to agree to, even if he offered a condition of 91, Li Xiao would not be willing to go to Gaoyang's broken shoes, no, it was this broken boat.
"You don't have to be afraid of that slut." For Gao Yang, Cheng Wu directly shouted the word slut, which made Li Xiao a little speechless. Anyway, everyone is a princess, well, now it's the eldest princess, the emperor's sister.
"There's nothing to be afraid of, it's just an eldest princess, even if it's a prince, you have to follow the rules. The state has national laws, and the family has family rules. ”
Xue Wulang sat on the side and laughed, Liu Sigongzi unceremoniously revealed Cheng Wu's old bottom, "I said that you are really, isn't Princess Gaoyang just because she thinks you are burly and stout enough, so she wants you to be a guest in the curtain, you say you, if you don't want to, you don't want to, and you make things so embarrassing." Actually, Gao Yang is still very beautiful, even if you get it, you won't lose. ”
Cheng Wu blushed suddenly, a tall and strong man was still a little shy and shy at this time, "Hugh is talking nonsense, how can I look at such a slut, let alone be harsh." ”
Liu Sigongzi laughed, stroked his face and sighed, "It's a pity that I am not as handsome as Li Sanlang, nor as heroic as Xue Wulang and you Cheng Wulang, otherwise, if Gao Yang finds me, I will definitely summon him." ”
A group of sons and brothers treat the princess of the heavenly family as a sister in the Qinglou, which is very ordinary, which makes Li Xiao feel like he has heard something that he shouldn't hear.
But looking at their appearance, it seems that the princesses of the Tang Dynasty are really not very respected, let alone very popular.
It is said that the princess of the Tang Dynasty was debauched, and it seems that it should start from Gaoyang.
"Li Sanlang, they all say that your family's medicinal wine is good, but I prefer your family's soju, I drank it once in Cheng Wu's, it was enjoyable and energetic, today my brother came to you to drink on purpose, you hurry up and drink it." Liu Si said very well.
This Liu Si, although he is said to be a son-in-law, has a good attitude towards Li Xiao, at least he does not have a superior tone, such a person Li Xiao likes.
"San Lang, let me introduce to you, this Liu Si, the fourth son of the Kui Guo family, is now a soldier of the Left Guard Lantian Zhichong Mansion to join the army. You're in someone's realm, so if you have something to do in the future, you can definitely help him. has him to cover you and keep you worry-free, and then there is a scoundrel like Wei Yong, who directly finds your third brother and asks him to lead troops to cut it. Cheng Wu said with a smile.
Duke Kui Guo, Li Xiao knows that Liu Hongji, the famous general of the founding of the country and the hero of Lingyan Pavilion, is the Duke of Kui Guogong, this is a veteran of the Tang Dynasty, and the first hero of Taiyuan who followed Li Yuan to raise troops, and later became a hero of Lingyan Pavilion close to Li Shimin.
However, this Kui Guogong, who died a few years ago, is Liu Hongji's son Liu Renshi, that is, Liu Si's father. Liu Renshi is a second-generation pit father, he only knows how to eat and drink, and he has served as a general in Zuo Xiaowei by relying on Lao Tzu's door, which is not bad.
Liu Si, is the fourth son of the family, or a concubine, but he is also a more competitive brother in Chang'an, he studied in Guozijian for a few years earlier, and later entered the inner palace as a palace guard, and then went out to Zuowei as a six-grade soldier in Lantian Zhichong Mansion to join the army.
He and Cheng Wu and Xue Wu used to study together in the country, and they were on an errand with the guards, although they are not serving in the Yulin Army now, but the relationship has always been good.
"Brother Cheng and Brother Xue's brothers, that is naturally also my Li San's brother, my brother is here, naturally there is enough good wine and meat." Li Xiao likes to make friends, especially friends who are willing to make friends sincerely regardless of their identity, so he immediately took the best two-pot head from his collection, and got some braised pork and fried beans.
The other guests were naturally entertained by Mr. Zhao, and they were also very happy.
Liu Si is the kind of person who makes friends without looking at his identity but looking at his temper, as long as he has the right temper, whether you are a farmer or a trader, he is willing to make friends, if he is not in the right temper, even if he is the same as a son of a relative, he is still too lazy to take care of it.
"San Lang, your wine is really good, but the name is average, Erguotou, everyone is confused, why is it a second pot, Erguo sounds good without a head."
"Fourth brother, the first pot of wine is indeed there, but the first pot of wine is strong, and the drink is not as refreshing."
Cheng Wu said with a smile, "The first pot of wine you have drunk is to burn the knife." ”
"Oh, it turns out that it's the first pot of wine, that wine, it tastes strong, but it's going to have a headache the next day. It's still cool for you to drink in the second pot, which is refreshing and not spicy, but the name is still not good enough. You have to have a good name, what kind of elixir jade liquid fairy juice, as soon as you hear it, it is expensive, it is called Erguotou, and it is not drunk by the coolies on the dock. ”
Li Xiao patted his thigh, "What the fourth brother said makes sense, I also think that a good name should be taken, a good wine must have a good name, and there must be a good packaging." It's just that I haven't figured out what the name is, why don't the fourth brother give it today? ”
"If you look for me, I'm blind, I'm a martial artist, I haven't read a lot of books, but I haven't read a few sentences, I can't even name my son, you better find someone else." Liu Si took a sip of the second pot and smacked the aftertaste.
Li Xiao has a lot of wine names in his mind, such as Wuliangye, Moutai, Xifeng Wine, Yanghe Daqu, Langjiu, Jinjiu, Fenjiu, and Huzhou Laojiao, but he thinks they are not suitable.
Xue Wulang said on the side, "You see that the good wines on the market now are nothing more than Sanle pulp, wine, Xinfeng wine, chrysanthemum wine, bamboo leaf green, white sheep wine, lychee wine, Tusu wine, etc., which can only be drunk by rich and noble." The expensive bucket wine is ten thousand, and the cheap one costs hundreds or thousands of dollars. ”
Li Xiao's distillery is now in full swing, and it can brew about 300 catties of soju every day. But at present, it is basically used to soak medicinal wine, and it is not sold directly to the outside world, but only some are taken out and given to good friends, such as Cheng Xue and a few others.
After thinking about it, calling shochu too earthy, and calling it liquor too straightforward.
"Why don't you call it Lanxi Burning Spring?"
Burning spring, a burning word reflects the characteristics of soju, and the word spring is a little angry. With the addition of the word Lanxi, it is to indicate the place of origin and use it as a trademark.
"Blue Creek burns spring, it's a bit interesting to listen to the words, I think it's okay. Anyway, the fourth brother likes your wine, you must prepare some for me, brother, I don't take advantage of you, how much wine money should be directly said. ”
The wine of the Tang Dynasty was indeed relatively expensive, and the best wine usually said that the wine was ten thousand.
Ten thousand dollars for a bucket of wine is ten dollars. And how much is a bucket of wine in the Tang Dynasty, a bucket of ten liters, but the Tang Dynasty has a large bucket and a small bucket, the big bucket is equivalent to the current 6,000 milliliters, and the small bucket is equivalent to the current 2,000 milliliters, and the bucket for measuring wine is generally a small bucket.
Therefore, a bucket of wine in the Tang Dynasty is actually about two kilograms in modern times, that is, about four catties.
Four catties of wine are sold for 10,000 yuan, and 2,500 yuan per catty, which is indeed not cheap, but if it is compared with those top famous wines in later generations, it is actually not expensive, after all, there are many wines in later generations that can not move tens of thousands of glasses, and tens of millions of bottles are more.
In the poem of the poet immortal Li Bai, there are ten thousand wine fights, and in the poems of the poet saint Du Fu, the wine is 300 yuan, and the wine between the two is also more than 30 times different.
From this point of view, the poet is much more chic and rich than the poet.
Compared to the money for wine, it is huge.
One bucket of corn costs two dollars, one bucket of japonica rice eleven wen, one bucket of glutinous rice fifteen wen, and a good wine bucket costs 10,000 wen, and the general one also costs 300 yuan, which shows that wine is really a luxury and a profiteering industry.
"The fourth brother likes to drink, even if he comes to get it, I can still drink the fourth brother's wine here, what kind of money do you talk about, talking about money hurts feelings, don't talk about it." Li Xiao said with a smile.
Liu Si stared at Li Xiao with a wine glass for a while, and felt that what he said was quite sincere, and laughed at the moment, "Okay, then your fourth brother will not be polite to you, and he will come to you when he runs out of wine in the future." But since it's a brother, it's not so polite, if you have something in the future, even if you come to your fourth brother, although your fourth brother is just a stinky soldier, but he has made a lot of friends, and I can't handle it, I can also find someone else. ”
Li Xiao raised his glass, "Fourth brother, I'll do it first as a respect." ”
"!"
Everyone raised their glasses and drank happily.
"I think, you burn spring, as long as you get a high-grade jade bottle, and then get a sandalwood box, wrapped in silk, and inscribe two poems or something, even if you offer a price of ten thousand wine, you won't worry about no one buying it." Liu Si came up with an idea.
It's a good idea to get a good package, stir-fry it, and make it into a high-end famous wine.
"The hero sees the same thing, I think the same way, a box contains five bottles of wine, just the amount of a bucket, and then the five bottles are written with benevolence, righteousness, etiquette, wisdom and faith, and then each with a famous poem of the sages, with the best bottle, the best box, plus our best wine, and then a box sells for ten thousand." Li Xiao thought of a good way to circle money.
"I'll see it." Cheng Wu also nodded and praised, "People who can drink a thousand dollars of fighting wine must not care about fighting wine for 10,000 yuan, they drink wine, not money, and the more expensive it is, the more they can be favored." ”
is worthy of being a noble son, and in one sentence he broke the tone of these nobles and relatives, and only drank the most expensive ones.
