Chapter 45 [Huamao Wine]
Use disposable cleaning paper to wipe off all the dust around the box, the exposed wood is actually golden and the texture is particularly good-looking, Yang Nianzhong's nose is particularly sensitive, and there is a faint smell of fragrance on the box.
The box was very heavy to pick up, and the items inside were gently shaken from side to side, and there was absolutely no collision sound that Yang Nianzhong wanted to hear, as if it was placed very tightly, because the lighting on the scene was too chaotic. This wooden box is the last item to appear, even if Yang Nianzhong is interested, he will quickly clean up this warehouse before noon.
Forced to suppress their curiosity, the two brothers began to quickly clean up the clutter, then pushed the trolley to the parking lot of the storage company, and threw the garbage in the bin. Put all the items in the same yard in the back of the truck compartment, and fix them with elastic bands so that they don't collide with each other during the drive.
Only then did the two of them work together to fold the small trolley, put it on the other side of the carriage or fix it with an elastic band, and stand and inlay it on the other side of the carriage.
Minimize the space it occupies, and when I first opened the gate of the storage company, I didn't expect to meet the old auctioneer standing at the gate with a young man, talking and laughing.
Seeing Yang Nianzhong tidying up the warehouse so quickly, he was happily sitting in the cab, and Yang Nianzhong, who was driving the vehicle, waved his hand, and Yang Nianzhong also responded with a smile and pressed the horn twice, which was regarded as saying hello.
Then I drove the truck in the direction of home, and when I got home, it was exactly half past ten, and it was still early for lunch, but the old BJ fried sauce noodle restaurant was already busy.
After parking the car in the garage, the two brothers jumped out of the car and began to organize their equipment, leaving their dusty coveralls on the edge of the garage and driving in the second-hand washing machine. Throw all the disposable dust masks and cotton gloves in the trash, then open the compartment and take off the contents as they are.
Fetched a basin of water at the sink, dipped it in water with a brand new white hand towel, gently wiped off all the items and dusted off it, and then Yang Nianzhong held the locked wooden box with a strap. Following behind John, holding a box containing the military uniform of the warehouse owner and the box of Liubiju yellow sauce, he came to the living room on the second floor with a smile and put all the items on the floor.
Originally, Yang Nianzhong wanted to keep John at home for lunch, and by the way, take a look at what the two brothers have gained? But John was much busier than he was now. Shaking his head firmly, he patted Yang Jianzhong's shoulder, took out the car keys from Yang Nianzhong's pocket, and said with a smile.
"The boss apologizes to Aunt Yang for me, I can't taste the lunch and dinner made by my aunt, I have discussed with the auto parts store yesterday, I want to prepare auto parts according to their manifest, and I will drive the truck to pick you up with the proceeds from these auto parts."
Yang Nianzhong has nothing to worry about his black brother, don't look at the black bear spirit and fierce Zhang Fei is a thick and fine character, plus the existence of an expert level for cars. To fool John in front of a car or auto parts, an engine or something like that would be a humiliation is simply self-inflicted.
Don't look at John's lack of culture, but when it comes to cars, it's the first thing to say, including some small switches made of plastic on the car, what kind of price is it, and which one is good. John sells these auto parts, absolutely at the highest price, Yang Nianzhong just has to count the money.
Seeing that his brother was so insistent, Yang Nianzhong had to let him go, and patted John's shoulder and came to the garage downstairs together, helping John to load all kinds of auto parts into the truck, while saying with a thousand instructions.
"Brother's business income is the most important, but the body is your own, don't forget to eat lunch and dinner for business."
John grinned and put the two brand new tires in place, nodded and said, "Do you know that I can do a bad job on my own stomach?" I'm going to have spaghetti meatball noodles for lunch and paella for dinner, so it's always okay. β
Yang Nianzhong nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, as long as you like to eat, you can eat, you must be full, come over at half past six or seven tomorrow morning, and I will wait for you." β
At this time, John closed the hatch of the truck, and while locking it, he looked at Yang Nianzhong with a smile and said with a smile. "I won't be as bad as you, I will use my mobile phone to notify you instead of using a loudspeaker, that will affect Aunt Yang's mood Don't worry, boss, I'm leaving."
After sending off John, who was driving the truck, Yang Nianzhong locked the door in the backyard and pulled down the roller shutter door in the garage and locked it. Shaking his head and humming, Michael Jackson's music went upstairs.
After resting for a while, I heard a lively sound from downstairs, and the diners came to the door, although there was a chef in the back kitchen of the fried sauce noodle restaurant, and Aunt Chen, but when they were busy, the three of them couldn't be busy at all.
Yang Nianzhong ran downstairs to help at half past 12, and the customers stopped entering the fried sauce noodle restaurant at half past 12, and then the mother and son came upstairs with a smile. Originally, her mother Yang Lan was planning to make lunch for Yang Nianzhong, and she would talk about it when she was full, but she didn't expect to see the box printed with Liubiju yellow sauce, and she couldn't move anymore.
Gently stroking the lines on the box, he looked up at Yang Nianzhong in surprise and said. "Son, where did you get this box of Liubiju yellow sauce, it looks very quaint, it is very old, at least it is something before liberation."
Yang Nianzhong had to stretch out his thumb to his mother and said in admiration. "That's right, it was 50 years ago, and today I was lucky enough to auction off a veteran's warehouse, who came from Huaxia. It's a pity that this box is empty, and the items inside have nothing to do with the yellow sauce. β
Then he personally opened the wooden box and put some miscellaneous items aside, Yang Nianzhong took out the purple wine bottle and handed it to his mother and asked puzzledly. "Mom, what kind of wine is this? I only know the Chinese characters and wine characters above, and what does the middle word read? β
Mother Yang Lan took the wine bottle handed over by her son, looked at the stickers on it, and looked at Yang Nianzhong with a smile and said. "Is the Chinese culture that I usually teach you by myself almost lost? It's a shame that you only know two of the three words, let me tell you this is Huamao Liquor, which is the predecessor of the national liquor Moutai. β
Yang Nianzhong was so surprised that he almost didn't put his chin on the coffee table, and said with a shudder as he could stuff an apple into his mouth. "Mom, you're not kidding me, this is what you said about the predecessor of the national liquor Moutai, which won the gold medal at the Panama World Expo, so why is it a purple bottle instead of a white porcelain bottle."
Mother Yang Lan looked helplessly, and her baby son who asked such a stupid question sighed. "Isn't my stupid son usually smart? Why are you stupid at this time? The white porcelain bottle is a product that appeared after the Liberation War and the establishment of Moutai Distillery in New China. β
"Before the Liberation War, Moutai was served in purple porcelain bottles, and the lid of the porcelain bottle was divided into two layers, and the appearance of one layer was the same color as the bottle, which was also porcelain. The inside layer is plugged with a wooden stopper, and with a layer of wax on the outside, you can't smell the wine at all. β
"This can protect the Moutai in the bottle to the greatest extent, without deterioration and taste, and there were no residues such as chemical fertilizers and pesticides at that time, so the value of these six bottles of wine is definitely incomparable to those Moutai imported now."
Yang Nianzhong listened with enthusiasm, stared at his mother with a pair of big eyes and said with watery eyes. "Mom, I understand what you mean, that is to say, these six bottles of Moutai are products before liberation, and the quality is not comparable to those imported Moutai, if you make an analogy, what is the value of these Moutai."
Mother Yang Lan gently put this bottle of Moutai on the coffee table, closed her eyes and thought about it, and then looked at Yang Nianzhong, who was eager to wait for her answer, and said with a smile.
"It's not good to use other wines, so I'll give you an analogy with red wine, which is equivalent to the RomanΓ©e Conti in 1900, and cheap red wine is compared to it, so you understand."
Yang Nianzhong was already stupid when he sat on the sofa, saliva flowed from the corners of his mouth, and his mother Yang Lan screamed several times before she reacted, jumped up from the sofa in surprise, and shouted while jumping.
"I didn't expect the gap to be so big, I'm rich, I'm rich, every bottle of wine is worth a fortune, Mom, let's make it."
At this time, the mother Yang Lan sat on the sofa and calmly looked at her jumping son and said. "Son, you must know that this kind of wine is very rare, even if you can't find a few bottles in Huaxia, the value of his collection is much higher than the value of what you sold. What's more, are you willing to sell such a good wine? You kid is an alcoholic, I don't know, are you willing? β
Yang Nianzhong couldn't pretend anymore, so he deliberately coughed to hide his embarrassment, rolled his eyes and said. "I know that I can't deceive my mother, what you said is to me, how can I sell it, I will always collect these six bottles of wine, and after I marry your daughter-in-law Anna, I will give birth to your first grandson, let's open a bottle to celebrate."
Mother Yang Lan said triumphantly. "You are a piece of meat that fell from the belly of the old lady, and I know what kind of dung you pull when you kid pouts your tail. Can you hide that little bit of caution from me? Keep it in good hands and don't let the thief see it. β
Yang Nianzhong pursed his lips disdainfully and said, "Where is your son and Simba, a stupid thief who dares to go to our old BJ fried sauce noodle restaurant, if anyone dares to come in, I will kill him directly." β
