Chapter 72: The Wine Smells
With Li Qikun shouting, several maids, under the leadership of Li Song, walked into the scene with seven wine jars.
"Qikun, I thought you would offer candles as treasures, but I didn't expect you to offer wine, is this the fragrance of flowers you mentioned to me? If it is, then I have to taste it and see what is so special about it. Gu Zheng said half-jokingly, half-seriously.
"Yes, I've also heard of Li Yuanwai's floral fragrance, but it's a pity that I didn't have the chance to see the true face, so mysterious that there must be something magical, I want to see it." Huang Dafeng said.
Although he was smiling, he could make people hear a hint of sarcasm, isn't it wine, who doesn't have one or two good wines, and they actually offer them as treasures, I don't know what it means?
After hearing this, Li Qikun didn't care, he bowed his hand to Gu Zheng and everyone: "This wine is not called a floral fragrance, it is a new wine, and it has not been named yet, as for the name, let's wait until everyone has tasted it." After speaking, Li Qikun walked to the middle area.
Of course, this wine is not a floral fragrance, but a peak distilled with osmanthus alcohol, and the floral fragrance is only distilled out of three and a half jars, and the two of them still have to keep it for drinking, and it is impossible to get it here to show off.
Li Qikun recommended the wine after the two of them discussed. Gao Feng's qualifications and strength are too weak, this kind of thing can't even be famous, Li Qikun is the boss, so he will naturally have a lot of trouble.
The new wine was launched for the first time, and it was on such an important banquet occasion, which was of immeasurable value to its promotion, so even if Li Qikun had prepared the treasure in advance, he still decided to replace it with it, whether it was recorded in the county chronicle or not, it would definitely lay the foundation for the next step of making money.
The number of wine is not much, there are only seven altars, it is impossible to get one altar for each table, Li Qikun asked people to send one altar to the main table, one altar to the female table, and the rest can only be divided into two or three tables into one altar, fortunately, on average, each person can share one or two glasses, which is considered to be a drunken addiction, as for wanting to drink well, wait for the money to drink it later.
However, this move attracted a burst of ridicule from everyone at the main table, who said that Li Qikun was too stingy, and only brought a few jars of wine, which was not enough to stuff his teeth. Of course, Li Qikun didn't care when he heard it, and if he wanted to stuff his teeth, he had to stuff it with silver.
Seeing the maid holding the wine and standing up, Li Qikun immediately opened the altar. As soon as the mouth of the altar opened, a strong aroma of wine immediately came, even those who don't like to drink, at this time they knew that this was definitely good wine.
Li Qikun asked everyone to pour a glass, in the wine cup, the smell is emanated, and the mellow fragrance is stronger, and many people are slightly drunk just by smelling it.
Li Qikun also picked up a cup, wished the full moon in the night sky, and saluted everyone: "There is wine today and drunk today, don't make the golden bottle empty to the moon, do it!" ”
Everyone followed Li Qikun together, said "dry" to each other, and drank with their necks up.
"Ahh
"Poof!"
"Poof!"
Most of them, with the exception of a few, spat out their wine, and not only that, but they also stuck out their tongues and fanned their hands as if hot tea had been burned.
Such a strong liquor, no one at the scene except Gao Feng and Li Qikun has ever drunk it, and drinking this wine with the mentality of ordinary drinking alcohol really can't bear that kind of stimulation.
Gao Feng knew that this was the kind of scene, and he was secretly amused in his heart: Don't underestimate the mouthful you spit out, it is worth hundreds of dollars.
Everyone gradually got used to the numbness of the tongue, and finally heated up, and the scene was extremely noisy for a while.
"Why is the wine so strong?"
"I feel that way, too."
"Although this wine is strong, if you taste it carefully, it is really mellow!"
"Well, that's good."
……
Everyone discussed for a long time, couldn't say why, and finally looked at Li Qikun with their eyes.
Seeing everyone looking at him, Li Qikun smiled and asked, "How is this wine?" ”
"The first sip of this wine is a little strong, but then it feels mellow and fragrant, to put it mildly, this is the real wine, if you drink the original wine again, it is no longer wine, but water." One of them stood up excitedly and said.
Looking at his burning gaze, Gao Feng knew that this person must be a drunkard who knows how to drink, of course, what this kind of person said was more convincing.
"Thank you Boss Cheng for the compliment, come, pour two more glasses for Boss Cheng." Li Qikun bowed his hand to the man and arranged.
Then, Li Qikun looked around at everyone and said, "Li offered two treasures today." One is the candle, this treasure has been used by many families, the candle used on the scene is also donated by Li, its function and effect are known to everyone, I will not introduce, I want to say that the next step is that we will continue to reduce the price of the candle, until a few pennies a piece, ordinary people can afford to use it, this is also a demand of the Gu people for the people's life, and what we can do as businessmen is to facilitate the people and solve the worries of adults......"
"A good sentence to facilitate the people and solve my worries, this treasure has been accepted and recorded in the county annals." Without waiting for Li Qikun to finish speaking, Gu Zheng stood up and made a statement. Li Qikun's approach is exactly what he wants, this is a big thing for the benefit of the people, and it is much more valuable than those golden Buddhas, stone jade or coral.
When Gu Zheng finished speaking, everyone talked again: "Do you want to reduce the price of candles?" Li Yuanwai really has soul power! ”
Li Qikun arched his hand to Gu Zheng and expressed his gratitude, and then his eyes looked at the peak, as if he felt guilty in his heart.
I took someone else's patent, and my face was really a little feverish. However, when he saw Gao Feng nodding and smiling, he put his heart down again.
Li Qikun raised his hand and pressed down, stopping everyone's voices, and then said: "The second treasure is this wine, this wine does have a secret recipe for brewing, it is strong and fragrant, spicy and mellow, it is the next sale we will launch, for this reason, please name it Lord Gu." After speaking, he arched his hand to Gu Zheng again.
"It is indeed a good wine, and today we drink next to the mud pond, which is called the mud pond bar, which can be regarded as inheriting and developing the wine culture of our county." Gu Zheng immediately stood up and said.
"Thank you for naming it, here, Li has an uninvited feeling, and please agree." Li Qikun bowed and said.
"Qikun, if you have something to say, please speak directly." Gu Zheng said curiously.
"I want to cooperate with the county government to make wine, and half of the dividend will be given to the county government.
"Haha, Qikun, you have offered another big treasure, okay, I accepted this treasure on behalf of the county government, this move is recorded in the county chronicles, and the dividends are included in the county government's financial revenue." When Gu Zheng heard the news, he immediately agreed with a smile.
As soon as this wine comes out, it will definitely be able to top up other wines, it must be a huge profit, there will be half of the dividend, and the county will also have a large amount of income.
Li Qikun's sudden proposal to cooperate with the government was also discussed with Gao Feng in advance. After all, the two of them are not at ease with the huge profits brought by wine, in case someone covets it, I am afraid that Li Qikun's strength will not be able to resist it, it is better to put on the official coat, although the profit may be reduced by half, but it is better to be safe.
