Chapter 339: Father and Son Drink Together
Although I don't know what Wang Xiang did when he bought so much grain, this did not affect Wang's housekeeper to meticulously complete the task arranged by Wang Xiang, the grain that people recovered was different from the corn in Chang'an, Luoyang and other places, but the rice abundant in the south, the grain was full, the grain was rich, and the dried fish dried by the people of Xunzhou were also made of fresh sea fish, which was fresh and delicious, and Wang Xiang was very satisfied.
With these rice and dried fish completely enough for the daily consumption of the base, Wang Xiang returned to the warehouse of the end times with the rice and dried fish, and immediately summoned Liu Qingqing and asked her to take the grain away.
Seeing Wang Xiang conjure up so much grain out of thin air, Wang Xingbang and Li Rujuan were still very shocked, although they already knew that Wang Xiang could shuttle through the Tang Dynasty.
"Mom and Dad, this is the food I brought to you, try it and see if it suits your appetite."
There are six layers up and down the delicate food box, each layer is a different delicacy, the top layer is three fat sea crabs, the crab shell is red and bright and steaming, obviously just steamed, the second layer is a plate of scallion oil fried sea cucumber, black and smooth at a glance makes people's appetite move, then a large plate of oyster omelette, a dish of steamed sea bass, a stuffy prawn, the bottom layer is a large bowl of seaweed egg drop soup and a dish of cold kelp shreds.
The climate of Datang has just warmed up this season, and the vegetables in the field have not yet grown, but there are a lot of seaweed and kelp in the sea, which are also good vegetables.
Seeing such a sumptuous food box Li Rujuan was like a dream, Wang Xingbang sniffed his nose and asked, "Son, where did you get so much seafood?" He also has a soft spot for seafood.
Wang Xiang scratched his head and said: "Li Shimin gave me a fief by the sea, and these seafood are all caught in the sea area of my fiefdom, and they are all fresh. ”
"Are you really a marquis? And got a fief? ”
Wang Xiang nodded. Wang Xingbang suddenly exclaimed: "Who did you just say gave you a fief?" ”
"Li Shimin." Wang Xiang said as a matter of course.
"Emperor Tang Taizong Li Shimin?" As a former newspaper editor, Wang Xingbang was excited when he heard such news. Pulling Wang Xiang to ask east and west. I can't even take care of my favorite seafood meal.
Li Rujuan shook her head and said with a smile: "You, the world has become like this, your occupational disease still can't be changed, your son brought your favorite seafood, and you pulled him to ask questions." ”
"What do you know, that's Li Shimin, one of the most famous emperors in Chinese history, and I have written about him in the newspaper before."
Wang Xiang knew his father's temperament, and said with a wry smile: "Dad, let's talk while eating." Li Shimin's matter is not something that can be said in a while. ”
"Yes, yes, talk and talk, it would be nice to have a bottle of wine, our father and son haven't drunk together for more than a year." Wang Xingbang smacked his mouth as he spoke, as if he was reminiscing about the taste of the wine.
Wang Xiang squinted his eyes and smiled mysteriously when he heard this: "Wait for me for a while." ”
As soon as the words fell, they disappeared, leaving Wang Xingbang and Li Rujuan staring wide-eyed.
After a while, Wang Xiang appeared in front of the two of them again, still holding two clay pots in his hands, Wang Xingbang's eyes suddenly lit up, the ancient wine jar was exactly what it looked like.
Wang Xiang smiled: "I just forgot the wine when I was about to eat." "This wine was originally intended to be drunk slowly when I was going south to travel all the way to Xunzhou. Later, the plan was changed and went directly to Xunzhou, so there was a lot of wine left.
Slapped open the sealing mud of one of the wine jars and poured a bowl of wine for Wang Xingbang first, and then slapped the sealing mud of the other wine jar and poured a bowl for Li Rujuan as well. Wang Xingbang, who hadn't smelled wine for a long time, couldn't help but taste it and took a deep breath: "What a strong wine, did there be such a strong wine in the Tang Dynasty?" ”
Wang Xiang smiled: "This is not the ordinary wine of the Tang Dynasty, this is the wine brewed by your son's own winery, how about it, it's not worse than Erguotou, right?" ”
Seeing Wang Xiang's smug look, Wang Xingbang pretended to nod deeply and said, "It's okay, although it's not as mellow as the authentic Erguotou, it's still strong enough." ”
I thought that Wang Xingbang would be full of praise before he got an "okay" evaluation, Wang Xiang said with a depressed face: "Dad, do you know how much this wine sells for in Datang?" ”
Wang Xingbang used to be an editor, and he also had some research on history, so he naturally couldn't help it, so he took a sip of wine and said: "According to records, in the Tang Dynasty, the price of a bucket of wine was about 100 yuan, and a glass of wine was about a few yuan. ”
"How much money?" Wang Xiang exaggerated: "It's almost the same to spend a few pennies to smell it, this is the strongest wine in a wine tasting workshop, a small glass costs 800 yuan, this is still because the wine in a wine tasting workshop is now open to sale, if it was in the past, a glass of wine would cost a few taels of silver!" ”
"How many taels of silver for a glass of wine?" Wang Xingbang was stunned: "When did the wine in the Tang Dynasty become so expensive?" ”
Wang Xiang said: "It depends on what kind of wine it is, your son ran a wine tasting workshop that got a plaque inscribed by Li Shimin's imperial pen." ”
"Li Shimin's plaque with the inscription of the imperial pen!" Wang Xingbang became excited again.
"You two, you don't stop talking, the food is going to be cold." Although it was a complaint, Li Rujuan's eyes obviously contained a thick smile.
Hearing her say this, the two of them started to eat with chopsticks, and seeing that Li Rujuan didn't move the wine in front of him, Wang Xiang said: "Mom, your bowl is fruit wine, and the degree is very low, just like wine." ”
"Oh, really?" Li Rujuan tried it in a small way, and sure enough, it did not have the spiciness, and the entrance was sweet and mellow.
In the last days, a family of three sitting together to eat and drink is already the greatest happiness, Wang Xingbang has a bowl of spirits with some drunkenness, intermittently told what happened in the past year or so, Wang Xiang knew that they had a very difficult life like other ordinary survivors for more than a year, in order to be able to exchange for enough mutant food to survive, they need to do more than ten hours of work a day, but compared to those who become zombies or die in the mouths of zombies and mutant creatures, they are lucky.
They also wanted to come to Ningfu to find Wang Xiang, but this was simply impossible for two ordinary people, so they would save some of the spars they earned from their labor every day, hoping that one day they would be able to save enough spars to hire an ordinary team of survivors to escort them to Ningfu, as for those who were able to hire, they didn't have to think about it.
Thinking of these things, Li Rujuan's tears couldn't help but flow, Wang Xingbang coughed and said loudly with drunkenness: "Didn't you find our son now, why are you crying, our son is good now, he can establish a survivor base by himself, and he also saw Tang Taizong become a marquis in the Tang Dynasty...... Why do I feel a little dizzy......"
"You're drunk."
"I'm not drunk, I'm happy, I can drink two more bowls." Wang Xingbang waved his hand, his eyes red.
"Yes, Dad is not drunk, let's continue drinking!" The corners of Wang Xiang's eyes were also a little moist.
