There is a large wine shop covering an area of about five acres in the north of Taiyuan City, which is also located outside the North City, the wine shop is called a wine shop, the building is five floors high, it is the largest and most famous wine shop in Taiyuan City.

This wine shop is the property of the Taiyuan Wang family, and the Wang family has a total of two wine shops in Taiyuan, one is the Jinshi Restaurant near Guozixue, and the other is this wine shop.

The Wang family is the first family in northern Shanxi, and the protégés are all over the Hedong officialdom, for such a large family, the profits of the two wine shops are obviously unsustainable.

The Wang family also has a grange covering an area of dozens of hectares, all of which are fertile land, and there are more than a dozen shops in Beishi, doing large-scale business.

The grange, shops, and liquor shops are all run by the children of the Wang family, among which the children of the Wang family, who are responsible for running two liquor shops, are called Wang Jizhong, the son of Wang Su, the second person in the Wang family.

He didn't have the heart to participate in the imperial examination again, so his father Wang Su said that Wang Xu, the head of the family, had found him the fat difference of running a wine shop.

Although Wang Jizhong is not very good at reading, he is very active in running a wine shop, and the two big wine shops are doing well under his single-handed management, and the business is even more prosperous.

At noon on this day, Yipinju Liquor Store was still doing thriving business, and a steady stream of drinkers rushed from all directions, filling all five floors of the liquor store, and the wine shop was noisy and chatty, and it was very lively.

Two customers walked in front of the door of the restaurant, one of them looked like the bottom of a pot, wearing a satin green robe and a green scarf, looking like a large grasshopper, and the other had a long face, with a grim face and did not smile.

"I said Lao Luo, I heard that this wine shop is doing a good business, and I have never been here, today I have a treat, let's have a few drinks!"

This big gnat, wearing a green scarf, is naturally Cheng Biting Jin. And the long-faced companion who came to drink with him was Luo Shixin.

The two of them returned to Taiyuan City with Yang Yuanqing, and the army was on vacation for a month, and Cheng Yanjin was no longer bound by military discipline, and began to drink wine to relieve his alcohol addiction that he had been holding back for several months.

Today he was bored with drinking alone, so he specially pulled Luo Shixin out to drink with him, and Cheng Yanjin took Luo Shixin to the door of the wine shop. A shopkeeper had already greeted him with a smile on his face. "Welcome two guests to the shop!"

"Is there a seat left?" Cheng Yanjin shouted loudly.

The shopkeeper's eyes were extremely poisonous, and he saw that these two people were coming to the wine store for the first time, so he laughed and said: "; The two masters came at a bad time. Today, the restaurant is almost full, and there are only a few seats on the first floor, can you invite two people to deign to sit on the first floor. ”

It doesn't matter how many floors you sit on. He and Luo Shixin walked through the door and followed the man to a few tables, and there were people at the tables, but in fact they were sitting at the same table with others, so it was not convenient to talk.

Luo Shixin frowned and asked, "We want a single seat, we don't want to sit with others, is there a seat upstairs?" ”

The guy shook his head, "There are only a few empty seats, there are no seats upstairs." ”

Luo Shixin had no choice but to say to Cheng Yanjin: "It's inconvenient to talk here." Let's change it! ”

Cheng Yanjin also doesn't like to share a table with others, he was about to agree, when two more guests came in, and when he entered the door, he asked with a smile: "Is there a seat?" ”

The shopkeeper became more and more attentive, with a smile on his face, "It turned out to be a high shopkeeper and a horse shopkeeper." There are seats, there are seats, two upstairs please! ”

Cheng Yanjin was stunned for a moment, then became furious, and pinched the back of the guy's neck. pulled him over, and the big eyes of the copper bell glared at him and scolded: "Is Lao Tzu a beggar?" I want Lao Tzu to sit on the first floor. He's not even a fucking bullshit businessman. ”

Luo Shixin saw that this guy was pinched so that his tongue was stuck out, and he hurriedly pulled away Cheng Biting Jin's hand, and then the guy took a breath, took two steps back and said in horror: "The third floor and above are for old drinkers, this is the rule of the store, you two are new customers, you can only sit on the first and second floors, but the second floor is really full of ......"

Before he finished speaking, Cheng Biting Jin shouted, "Lao Tzu is going to sit on the third floor, if you don't sit on Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will burn down your bird tower." ”

The guy saw that he was fierce, so he had no choice but to take them upstairs, the second floor was indeed full, and he went up to the third floor, and the third floor was basically full, and there were four or five vacant seats.

He walked straight over, but saw a wooden plaque on the table, which read, 'Han Da Proprietor's special seat', Cheng Biting Jin scolded, "Damn, the spirit card is not placed at home for worship, but it is placed everywhere, unlucky!" ”

He picked up the wooden card, threw it out of the window casually, and sat down with a big grin, the guy bullied the soft and was afraid of the hard, and he couldn't dare to say anything, so he had to step forward and say, "What do you want to eat?" ”

"There are more than a dozen plates of dishes, the key is wine, what good wine do you have here?"

"Back to the two masters, the small shop is full of fruit wine, and the best one is Dali peach wine."

The Sui Dynasty strictly forbade grain winemaking, and Cheng Yanjin and Luo Shixin also knew about it, so they said: "Then come two pots of good peach wine." ”

"Wait a minute, the wine will be here soon!"

After a while, the two guys brought a few plates of cold dishes and two pots of wine, Cheng Yanjin picked up the wine jug and poured a glass of wine for Luo Shixin, sighed and said: "My lady is sorry for not giving birth to a son, and agreed to marry me a concubine, Shixin, do you say that it is possible for Youniang to be my concubine?" ”

Luo Shixin sneered, "People are married women, you will die of this heart!" ”

"A married woman is not afraid, her husband is weak and sick, it's a big deal for me to kill him, the key is Youniang, is she willing to be my second room?"

Luo Shixin saw that he was delusional all day long, and couldn't help scolding: "You black-faced toad, you want to eat swan meat all day long, Pei You is the daughter of the Pei family, and the daughter-in-law of the Cui family in Qinghe, you actually want to accept someone as a second room, who do you think you are, don't dream." ”

Cheng Yanjin was a little gloomy, he also knew that there was no hope, and after a while, he asked again: "Tell me about you!" When did you and the informant get married? I'm a matchmaker, and I can't be less than the money I get. ”

Luo Shixin drank a glass of wine and said slowly: "Let's wait a while!" Anyway, marrying her is a matter of time, and I am afraid that marrying her will affect the imperial court to attack Dou Jiande, so I have never been able to make up my mind. ”

At this moment, a middle-aged man in a black silk robe, accompanied by several entourages, walked up to the third floor and smiled at the guy: "Come on three bottles of drunken bone incense." ”

The three words 'drunken bone fragrance' made Cheng Yanjin stunned, he knew that this kind of wine was a kind of excellent rice wine, he hadn't drunk it for a long time, listening to Xiao Er's words, his heart suddenly became anxious.

"Come over to Lao Tzu!" Cheng bit the gold pounding the table and shouted.

A guy hurriedly ran forward, "What does this grandpa command?" ”

Cheng Biting Jin took out an ingot of fifty taels of gold and slapped it heavily on the table, "Lao Tzu also wants two bottles of drunken bone incense!" ”

The guy had never seen such a big ingot of gold, his eyes suddenly straightened, and he swallowed his spit for a while and said, "Grandpa wait, I'll get it for you!" ”

The guy rushed away, brought two bottles of wine in a moment, Cheng Biting Jin snatched the wine bottle, pulled out the stopper, and sniffed it on the tip of his nose, it was really good rice wine.

He immediately smiled and scolded: "Damn, didn't you say that there is only fruit wine?" What is it? ”

The guy's face was a little unnatural, and he hurriedly explained in a low voice: "Don't hide it from this grandfather, our rice wine is generally only sold to old customers, and the two of them have never been here, so they are a little offended, sorry!" ”

Cheng Yanjin poured two glasses of wine, he took the wine glass and drank it all, smacked his mouth, squinted his eyes and smiled: "Good wine!" It's fucking good. ”

Luo Shixin also took a sip, but his brows furrowed, and he asked the man: "Didn't you say that it is forbidden to use grain to make wine?" How dare you sell rice wine in your shop? ”

The guy hurriedly waved his hand, "Don't tell the two of you, this wine is transported from Guanzhong, not our own wine, so there is no illegality, you can drink it with confidence!" ”

As he spoke, he stared at the gold on the table again, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva, but Cheng Biting Jin took the gold into his arms, took out two copper coins, and threw them on the table, clanging, "This is a reward for you." ”

The man's face was elongated, he had never seen such a stingy drinker, he violated the rules and served them rice wine, and he only rewarded them with two cents, he put the money into his arms with a calm face, and turned away.

Cheng Biting Jin didn't see anything, just drank his rice wine comfortably, but Luo Shixin pulled him, leaned over and whispered: "Old Cheng, why do I think this wine shop is weird everywhere?" ”

Luo Shixin is a well-intentioned person, from the beginning of the guy to hide from them, he felt a little uncomfortable, and now he suddenly found that this wine shop actually sells rice wine, is this the reason why its business is booming.

Cheng Yanjin glanced at him, pouted and said, "I said you, this is the most famous Yipinju wine shop in Taiyuan, do you still think it's a black shop?" ”

"Nope! I didn't mean that, I think they dared to sell rice wine openly, there is something wrong with this! ”

Cheng bites gold' squeak! He drank the wine dry, sandwiched another chopsticks dish, and said vaguely while chewing: "What's the problem, this is the wine that people imported from Guanzhong, and there is no illegal ban on brewing, you think too much about it." ”

Luo Shixin shook his head, "As far as I know, it is not so easy to enter wine from Guanzhong, the road is very strict, and the chief manager does not allow grain and wine to enter the country at all, but it is not announced." ”

"Oops! Don't worry about it. ”

Cheng Yanjin said impatiently: "No wonder the thread girl wanted to run at the beginning, it's really boring to live with you, worrying about the country and the people all day long, isn't it good to have a place to drink rice wine?" What do you have to worry so about! ”

Luo Shixin smiled bitterly, he stopped talking, the two of them drank for an hour, Cheng Biting Jin drank ten bottles of wine before he was satisfied, he paid the bill, burped and said: "Drink happily today, we will come back tomorrow." ”

"Let's talk about it tomorrow!"

Luo Shixin took advantage of the unpreparedness and hid half of the unfinished wine in his arms
