422 Wine Tasting (1/2)
The wisdom of the night is elegant, and the sound of the piano becomes ambiguous and blurry.
Zhou Xingzu estimated that the time was almost there, pushed open the Accord, and walked into the lobby. I saw that the originally elegant lobby had already been hung with pink curtains, and the atmosphere was disturbing.
There were already many distinguished guests, standing in the lobby shoulder to shoulder, looking up and looking forward to the appearance of the piano girl.
"I've brought 10,000 pieces of silver tonight, and I'm sure I'll buy the first night of the piano girl."
"Hey, hey, my father is a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, please let me do more."
"I heard that the piano girl is not only as beautiful as a flower, but also proficient in playing, playing and singing."
The guests glared angrily and refused to give in.
Zhou Xingzu took a step forward, and someone turned around and said, "Don't think that you, you are handsome and talented, we will let you." ”
"Huh?"
Zhou Xingzu glared at him and didn't speak.
If you heard it correctly, this person is the son of the Rite Servant's family, and once the Rite Servant was sick, and this Son personally visited him with a gift.
Sure enough, he was glared at, and the boy was shocked all over, and only then did he recognize the person in front of him, and hurriedly stepped out of the way and said: "It turned out that Lord Zhou was here, and I asked Lord Zhou to invite him inside." ”
"Lord Zhou?"
Wow!
The guests who were originally congested were immediately divided into two sides.
Who doesn't know the name of Mr. Shennong Lingzhou, a third-grade master who can meet the emperor, is not something they can afford to provoke.
"It's miserable, even the Sanpin master has ended up in person."
"Isn't it, as a high-ranking official, you still want to come to Qinglou?"
"Don't you die, I heard that Lord Zhou, do you love your wife the most......"
When Zhou Xingzu stood at the front, the guests behind him immediately muttered one after another.
"Ladies and gentlemen, Lord Zhou, don't worry."
"Look, the piano girl is here."
The old bustard stood on the stage and said.
A bewitching and beautiful woman in a red dress walked down the attic with broken steps.
Sharp-eyed guests can also see the ankles exposed under the red dress, and several delicate small bells hanging. Watching the bell swaying, the hook is unbearable.
On the side of the lobby, a maid holds a copper kettle and pours wine one by one. When Qin Cao walked to the stage, he poured dozens of times the wine and sent it to the guests.
"Tonight, the piano girl will come out of the pavilion, and the price will be 50,000 taels of silver."
"As long as you can afford this sum of money, you will have the opportunity to spend the night with the piano girl. But before that, the gymnastics girl wants to invite everyone to a drink. ”
The old bustard laughed.
The guests looked at the wine presented and immediately understood.
It turns out that tonight, in addition to asking for silver, you also need to understand beauties.
After tasting this glass of wine, the most desirable person will have the opportunity to spend the night with her.
And 50,000 taels of silver is equivalent to a threshold. The number of people who are willing to spend this amount of money is not much, but it is enough to screen out most of the people. But the rest of the people must not be less. It is necessary to rely on the topic of wine tasting, let the piano drill girl, and choose her favorite "Lang Jun".
"Fortunately, there is still this level, otherwise tonight, who will win Lord Zhou?"
The guests present all had a hint of joy in their hearts.
As everyone knows, the piano girl is here for Lord Zhou.
Immediately, many people reached out and picked up the wine glasses on the table, and drank them all heroically. This glass of wine is 50,000 taels of silver, and many people hesitated, but still resisted the impulse. Because the net worth of most of the people present combined, they did not have 50,000 taels of silver.
Burst!
But as soon as they drank the wine, they all squirted it out.
What is this?
It's sour and astringent, is it still wine!
Rice wine was prevalent in the Ming Dynasty, and a few varieties of liquor also appeared in the north, which were deeply loved by high-ranking officials and magnates.
But except for the palace products in the palace, ordinary people have no chance to drink the wine of the Golden Country. When I drink it suddenly, I naturally can't get it into my mouth, and I vomit when I drink it.
Zhou Xingzu looked at them, shook his head and stepped forward, raising the most significant glass goblet among them. Although in this era, there was already glass in the Western Regions, it is difficult to imagine what kind of process was used to make the shape of a goblet.
Immortal mana?
Zhou Xingzu smiled and didn't care too much.
Compared with the wine bottle and porcelain cup next to it, this goblet looks particularly strange. But he indifferently picked up the wine glass and shook the wine in the glass, but there was a bit of elegance.
Along the mouth of the cup, he sniffed the aroma of the wine, Zhou Xingzu took a small sip and tasted it, and praised it after returning to the sweetness: "Good wine!" ”
The distinguished guests around heard him shouting loudly, and their faces all had a look of hell. What kind of broken wine can be considered good wine? For the sake of my sister, you don't have to speak with such a conscience.
Unexpectedly, Zhou Xingzu stepped forward and spoke sonorously: "The so-called glow-in-the-dark cup of grape wine, if you want to drink the pipa, urge immediately." Piano girl, presumably this is the famous wine of the Golden Kingdom. ”
"This wine is made from grapes, and it is sour in the mouth, but it has a great aftertaste. And presented in the glass, reflecting a stunning beauty, it is believed that it has a history of more than 100 years, and it is an offering from the Western Regions to the king of Zhou. Nowadays, in the entire capital, only the emperor can enjoy this wine, and the girl is really a good dowry, a good dowry! ”
After a pause, he added: "If you guess correctly, this glass of wine should be sealed in a wooden barrel and transported to the capital by horse, so there is a hint of wood in the wine." After the wine is opened, it needs to be left for a moment and shaken to decant the wine to achieve the best taste. ”
"It's really fragrant."
Zhou Xingzu took a sip of wine from the cup and sighed faintly.
His remarks shocked the group of guests who spit wine next to him.
Why is a cup of unpleasant broken wine so valuable by him? However, the identity of Zhou Xingzu's Shennong Ling invisibly announced his authority.
"Isn't it an exaggeration to say that it's really so valuable?"
A man muttered to himself.
Zhou Xingzu immediately smiled and said: "You just swallow it with just one bone, let alone wine." ”
"Even if it's urine, you can't tell if it's sweet or salty."
As soon as he explained this, the guests around him suddenly realized.
Hurriedly raised the wine glass and tasted it slowly again, not to mention. According to Master Zhou, wine tasting can really bring an extraordinary feeling, which makes people intoxicated.
After tonight, there was a strong east wind in the capital that loved to drink wine, and the price even reached the point of one cup of gold.
The piano girl smiled at him and walked away with the maid.
The old bustard leaned up and whispered to Zhou Xingzu: "Congratulations to Lord Zhou, the piano gymnastics girl invited you to the flower hall for a gathering." ”
Zhou Xingzu took a deep breath, the real plot mission has just begun.
