Chapter 86: Zhu's Birthday Celebration (2)
The boy sitting in the pavilion was probably about fourteen or fifteen years old, and when Fanning saw him for the first time, he thought of sumo, indeed, this boy was very fat, at least about one meter eight tall, and he was definitely an excellent sumo wrestling seedling.
Fanning walked into the pavilion, the young man did not raise his head, still concentrating on fiddling with the stone statue in his hand, he squinted, carefully carved little by little with a carving knife, fine stone powder fell from his fingers from time to time, the small stone statue was held in his fat palm, and he couldn't see what he was carving?
Fanning's gaze fell on his face, like all obese teenagers, the flesh of the boy's cheeks drooped, but his gaze was very calm, as if there was no pollution of the two lakes on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.
The young man wore a straight jacket of Chu color, the clothes were very wide, looking like a monk's robe, wearing a hood on his head, and two words were embroidered on the front chest of the clothes, Zhu Zhe.
It turned out to be his name.
"Zhu Zhe!"
Fanning shouted with a smile, but the other party didn't answer, as if there was no Fanning on the other side, he was still concentrating on carving the stone statue.
Fanning walked up behind him and looked over his shoulder at the stone statue in his palm, and couldn't help but exclaim.
The stone statue he carved was actually his sister Zhu Pei, who was dressed in men's clothes, with a face like a full moon, a high nose, beautiful eyes like a deep pool, and a slender mouth, which appeared vividly under his carving knife.
The black gauze hat worn on the head has been carved, and a small piece of beautiful jade has been carved in the middle of the hat.
At this time, the young man was carving the short sword on Zhu Pei's waist, he was extremely careful in his sword, but he was extremely skilled, and every time he went down, the power was just right, the stone powder fell little by little, and the prototype of the sword had come out.
Fanning sat down cross-legged across from him, smiling at the unstained young man.
At this time, a maid stepped forward with a bowl of ginseng porridge and whispered, "Dayane, eat something!" Dayanei! ”
"Shh
Fanning shrugged softly and said to the maid, "He's doing his own thing, don't disturb him." ”
Fanning now learned that Zhu Zhe was suffering from scholar-type autism.
Fan Ning had a trace of pity in his heart, his own predecessor, Fan Dudu, was actually a slight autism, and Fan Ning could understand the loneliness in the other party's heart.
Zhu Zhen's quiet eyes actually made Fan Ning feel a trace of inexplicable touch, and he felt that his heart was also once as peaceful and immaculate.
This world is so wonderful, Zhu Zhe, who was engrossed in carving, suddenly stopped.
He slowly raised his head and took a closer look at Fanning in front of him, but the pause was only for a short time, and soon, he was fully engaged in the carving and returned to his own world.
At this moment, there was a rush of footsteps outside, and Fanning looked back to see a fat old man in a gorgeous robe rushing towards him, followed by Jupei.
At a glance, Fan Ning thought it was Zhu Yuanfu running over, but if you look closely, it is not, she looks very much like Zhu Yuanfu, but she is a little shorter than Zhu Yuanfu and a little fatter.
"Third Grandfather, wait for me!" Behind him, Zhu Pei shouted anxiously.
It turned out to be Zhu Pei's third grandfather, Fan Ning heard Zhu Pei say that her grandfather had three brothers, her grandfather was a large landowner, her second grandfather was a court official, and he was a fellow privy councilor, and the third grandfather was a big businessman.
Fanning stood up, he looked at Zhu Zhe, who was not affected by the outside world in the slightest, and walked quickly down the hill.
Although it was early spring and February, and there was still a little chill in the air, Juppé's third grandfather was sweating profusely, standing on the small bridge and bending over to gasp, as if he was about to lose his breath.
When he saw Fanning, he didn't care about being tired, grabbed Fanning's wrist, panted and asked, "Is that bottle of wine made by the little brother?" ”
Fan Ning hurriedly shook his head and smiled: "Big official, it is illegal to go to prison for brewing wine in private, I have never done this kind of thing." ”
At this time, Zhu Pei also ran up, "Dumb, this is my third grandfather, there are three main stores in the capital, and there are also two liquor brands in Pingjiang Mansion." ”
The main store generally appears in the capital, and they are all restaurants that are qualified to make wine and sell wine, such as Sun Yangzhengdian in "Qingming Riverside Map".
In the local state capitals, the right to brew wine is in the government, but the government generally can't control it, so the government will auction the right to make wine every year, and the one with the highest price will get the wine brand.
There are actually three main stores in the capital, which is already a large-scale wine merchant.
The old man held Fan Ning's hand and said with a smile: "My name is Zhu Yuanfeng, I know that the little brother is a prodigy Fan, but I didn't expect that he was good at learning, and he was also a master of winemaking." ”
Fan Ning smiled slightly: "If Zhu Yuanwai is interested, why don't we sit down and talk." ”
"Interested! Interested! ”
Zhu Yuanfeng's eyes narrowed into a line of smiles, and he hurriedly shouted: "Pei'er, arrange a room for us, I want to have a good chat with Brother Fan." ”
Zhu Pei took Fanning and his third grandfather to his viewing room, where Fanning looked around the room, which was very elegantly furnished, with little furniture except for a round table with yellow flowers and a few chairs.
Outside the room is a very delicate carved water pavilion, in front of which you can sit by the railing, and the scenery of the large garden can be seen.
Fanning loved the room, and he slowly walked to the railing to enjoy the view, letting the spring breeze touch his face.
But Zhu Yuanfeng didn't have the slightest intention of watching the scenery.
He asked anxiously, "Can Brother Fan tell me whether the wine is self-brewed or bought from outside?" ”
Fan Ning smiled slightly: "Of course the wine is not self-brewed, it is the Pingjiangqiao wine I bought, and then I process it myself." ”
"Pingjiang Bridge wine?"
Zhu Yuanfeng was stunned, isn't Pingjiangqiao wine brewed in his own hotel? How the taste is completely different.
He suddenly realized that the key was probably the processing technology that Fanning was talking about.
Zhu Yuanfeng has many industries, and wine is only one of them, but it is this one that allows him to squeeze into the six major wine merchants in the world.
Of course, Zhu Yuanfeng understands the value of Fanning's wine-making technology, and if he masters it, the name of the world's first wine must fall into his own hands.
Zhu Yuanfeng was very anxious, the people who came to the birthday banquet were all wealthy families from all over the world, which one did not have a liquor brand in his hand?
If that bottle of wine gets out, I'm afraid it won't be so easy for me to get the secret of the unique secret.
"Brother Fan, is this technique you just mentioned a feature of Mudu Town?"
In a hurry, Zhu Yuanfeng still has to figure out whether this technology is unique to Fanning or a local feature?
Fan Ning smiled faintly, "I'm afraid that Muduzhen won't be able to find a second bottle of wine like mine!" ”
Zhu Yuanfeng was immediately overjoyed, and he went straight to the point and asked, "Can Brother Fan transfer this wine-making technology to me?" ”
Fan Ning didn't answer, he turned back to Zhu Pei who was snorting melon seeds and smiled: "I guess the statue of your brother is ready, and the carving is really lifelike, or you can give it to me!" ”
"My brother still has a lot of stone statues! You want, I give it to you. ”
After speaking, she was still knocking on the melon seeds, and she didn't mean to get up.
Fan Ning was worried, why didn't this little lady understand what she meant?
Zhu Pei had already seen through his thoughts, and sneered: "If you want to drive me away, just say it!" Twists and turns, I don't understand. ”
"Pei'er, why don't you go out and have fun!"
"Humph!" Juppei's eyes rolled, obviously she didn't buy her third grandfather either.
The two had no choice but to negotiate and trade in front of her.
"Zhu Yuanwai, I am not very demanding, there is a shop over there in the Muduhua Stone Market, called Xu Ji Qishi Museum, because of tax evasion, it was seized by the government yesterday, it may be auctioned, I want that store."
Zhu Yuanfeng stroked his beard and smiled: "Is it that simple? You can actually ask for a little more. ”
Fanning shook his head, "I believe in fate very much, I dreamed of that store, but I didn't dare to dream of it, but just yesterday, it suddenly appeared, and I think this is what God arranged for me." ”
At this time, Zhu Pei suddenly spoke: "Third Grandfather, since this kid is being stupid, you will fulfill him!" ”
Zhu Yuanfeng smiled bitterly in his heart, where is this kid stupid, he is not ordinary shrewd!
Take a fool's breath in front of every wine merchant, and he'll make a fortune.
