Guo Shouxiang was very unhappy!

Guo Shouxiang was originally very happy! Because there is a very important banquet tonight, it is Wu Jinghe who is the east.

Wu Jinghe is only a martial arts person, and he came to Beijing to take the martial arts exam.

The so-called poor literature and rich martial arts, the family of the general martial arts is very rich, and the martial arts are bold, so as soon as they enter Beijing, they will spread the hero post, and invite the children of the wealthy families in Beijing, especially the generals in the family, to gather in the hero hall and drink hero wine together!

After Guo Shouxiang received the hero's post, he casually threw it into the trash.

He also loves martial arts! Their Guo family, their ancestors were military generals, and his father was Taibao, who was in charge of more than half of the soldiers and horses of the Ming Dynasty. His second brother is a thousand households in Jinyiwei, and his third brother is a hundred households in Jinyiwei, although he is still young now, he has not entered Jinyiwei, and he will go to Jinyiwei to experience in a few years.

The family loves martial arts, and there is no reason why he doesn't love martial arts.

Aiwu didn't want to gather in the Hall of Heroes, drink hero wine together, and threw the hero post into the garbage can. Without it, the identity is different.

Who is he? The youngest son of Guo Taibao, the governor of the left army of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, is so glorious, how can he go to participate in a martial artist to hold a Huang Xiong banquet? Isn't that self-deprecating and despised?

Oh, you're just cheapen that meal and a drink?

Later, Guo Shouxiang picked up the hero post from the trash can again, and happily prepared to participate, the reason is also very simple.

Because, a friend of his told him that the Queen Mother liked Wu Jinghe very much and intended to marry her third daughter to Wu Jinghe.

Wu Jinghe's identity is different! This is a man who is a concubine, and he will soon become the third brother-in-law of the current emperor. Then the hero's banquet he went to Wu Jinghe was not self-deprecating, but a little high-level, at least he was right.

Is this kind of banquet open to everyone?

You can only prove your identity if you can attend such a banquet. If you can't participate, you will be looked down upon.

What's more, there was Lu Bing among the participants! His father had already asked him to make friends with Lu Bing, but he didn't have a chance, and this was not an opportunity.

To participate in such a banquet, you have to give the host some gifts. Ordinary gifts are not of high grade, and you have to give some unusual gifts to be extraordinary.

There is an independent courtyard in Guo Taibao's mansion, which is full of all kinds of gifts.

Guo Shouxiang took the key, opened the small courtyard, and searched several rooms in a row but did not find a suitable gift. Finally, he opened the three rooms that his father had used for himself, and prepared to go there to find out if there were any suitable gifts.

There were two rooms filled with all kinds of chests, twenty or thirty of which were still sealed, and the boxes were engraved with letters, which were dedicated to the royal family.

It is specially for the royal family, and it is also affixed with a seal, which can be seen to be extremely valuable.

Guo Shouxiang didn't dare to move, and went to look at the other boxes. The other boxes are not sealed, although there are words on them, but they are not written for the royal family, but for the first product, or the second product, or the third product.

Guo Shouxiang did not move the boxes for the second and third products, and directly opened the boxes for the first product.

Inside is a case of wine, and the bottle is crystal clear.

Guo Shouxiang was in a trance, and then he was overjoyed.

Recently, in the yamen circle of the capital, it is popular to drink a kind of wine called Taibai. He has drunk it several times, mostly from the fourth, fifth or even sixth grades of Tegong.

Whether the wine tastes good or not is secondary, the key is that the emperor often drinks this wine, and it is not something you can buy if you have money.

Wine, a newly opened tobacco and liquor store in the capital sells it! But the cabinet is full of ordinary Taibaijiu, a bottle of thirty taels of silver, which can be bought with money. But if you want to buy something that is slightly unusual, such as one with the word special, you have to buy it with a waist card.

What grade to buy what wine, no encroachment.

Can I buy it with a waist card? The same can't be bought! First of all, one waist brand is limited to one bottle. Secondly, a waist card can only be bought once a month. Finally, you have to make an appointment and you will not be able to get the goods until a month later.

For Guo Shouxiang, money is not a problem, the problem is that he does not have a waist card. Even if he has a waist card and buys a bottle of wine for the three products, he can't take it out, and he can't afford to lose people!

If you want to buy a special second or even a special wine, you can only borrow his father's waist card, but unfortunately his father is too busy, sometimes he can't see each other once a month, let alone borrow a waist card to buy wine!

I didn't expect that he had so much Taibai liquor at home, and almost all of them were specially supplied to the top three grades. So, the newly opened tobacco and alcohol store in the capital is his family's industry?

It's no wonder that the shopkeeper in the shop and Xiao Er will have their nostrils facing the sky when they greet guests, and they won't give a good face when they come to the office. At the beginning, he was worried about this tobacco and alcohol shop, isn't he afraid of provoking any official or yamen and letting you close the door!

Now, he finally knows where the shopkeeper and Xiao Er's confidence comes from! The property of his Taibao Mansion, which one dares to provoke!

His father Guo Xun is also really, he opened a tobacco and alcohol store but didn't tell him. If one day he secretly took his father's waist card and went to his own store to buy wine, wouldn't it become a big joke when it was passed on, and let him lose face!

Guo Shouxiang looked at the special product in front of him, and saw that it was not wine but face.

This time, Wu Jinghe invited guests, all of whom came to the first-class wealthy families in Beijing, and the grade of the wine prepared could be lower? It must be the Taibai liquor that is sweeping the entire capital.

But with Wu Jinghe's status at this time, the grade of Taibai wine will not be too high, and it is estimated that at most it is the fifth grade of Tegong, and the fourth grade of Tegong has reached the edge of the sky.

When he appeared with a box of Tegong and a product, it would attract the envy and amazement of the rest of the people, and he would have face tonight.

Of course, if he showed up with a box of Tegong royal, his face would be greater, but he had a thief's heart and no thief's guts. The wine is sealed, and the quantity is limited, if you secretly take a box, you will definitely break your leg!

Guo Shouxiang was about to go out with a box of wine, remembering that in addition to selling alcohol, the tobacco and liquor store also sold cigarettes.

Smoke is cigar! It is rumored that the emperor loves to suck, and he often orders one in the last dynasty recently.

If something is good, it will be effective!

The ministers didn't dare to smoke it in the previous court, and the next court also followed the emperor's example and ordered a cigar to smoke. For example, his father smoked very fiercely, and when he didn't meet, he often had a cigar in his mouth.

Guo Shouxiang doesn't smoke often, but he also smokes. Because, like the son of a famous family like him, there will be a lot of entertainment every day, and someone will hand over a cigar whenever there is entertainment.

To be honest, Guo Shouxiang is not used to smoking cigars, but others smoke them like immortals, if you don't learn to smoke immortals, you will be out of place, let others look down on you, and say behind your back that you don't look like a yamen.

Guo Shouxiang only smokes cigars when he is social, and usually does not smoke at home, so he has never bought cigars and does not know what the price of cigars is.

But he knew that cigars were just like Taibai Liquor, and they were also graded, and what he usually smoked was a special four-grade and five-grade that other officials had bought with all their hearts. The three grades go up, and I haven't sucked it at all.

First, the quantity is small, and it is impossible to buy it at all. Second, it was not easy to buy, and it was also regarded as a treasure by the old sons of the Yanei, and they gathered together with their colleagues to smoke every time they were in front of the top or bottom back. If the Yanai dare to steal, so that their sons and colleagues don't have to smoke when they get together, the end will not be as simple as breaking their legs.
