Chapter Thirty-Six: Drunken Bianliang (I)

On the fifth day of the first month of June, it is advisable to sacrifice to avoid breaking the ground and wealth in the southeast. At the end of the day, everyone was surprised to see a large wooden platform standing outside the gate of Gaoyang Zhengdian, which had been silent for a long time.

There are seats on the wooden table, and there are tables in front of several chairs, which are covered with white cloths to look clean. In front of the platform, a piece of open space was pulled with ropes, and some chairs were placed for distinguished guests with some status to sit in, and in the distance was the territory of countless melon-eating people and senior drunkards.

More than a dozen soldiers and teams of military patrol shops were being invited to maintain order, and one by one they got some copper coins and arranged snacks and tea, and they worked very hard.

As soon as the ugly time arrived, the lobby of Gaoyang Zhengdian bowed down and invited the shopkeeper of the restaurant to come to the stage, where did the shopkeeper who had already sat in the store encounter such a scene, you look at me and I look at your face, and finally the shopkeeper Meng took the lead on the high platform, and several people bowed their hands to the surroundings without a teacher...... There was a lot of laughter at the bottom, and a few old guys were blushing.

The lobby of the Gaoyang main store was dressed in new clothes, holding a strange horn and shouting: "Distinguished guests...... Today's wine party, invited the Xiang official Lizheng of the Xiang Office, as well as the twelve most qualified shopkeepers of the Tokyo Bianliang 72 Zheng Store, and the shopkeepers of six wine shops! A total of 18 VIPs judged the merits...... Our great Song Dynasty people are outstanding spiritual creatures Hua Tianbao, Bianliang is the world's unparalleled blessed land cave sky! That's why all of you are gathered here today just to ............"

Suddenly, a half-sized boy in the VIP area below stood on a chair and scolded: "What a nagging fart! Hurry up and bring all the new wine, the grandfathers are in a hurry! If you force the sun to come up, you can't do it if you want to burn your grandfathers to death? ”

The guests and shopkeepers heard this diaphragm! Whose crooked melon and cracked jujube are this...... Take a closer look, phew! It turned out to be Gao Yu's family's yanai...... Alas, what iniquity you do! Bianliang fell into blood and met such a gentleman who was a street tiger......

Gao Yanei coaxed together, and the bottom and back suddenly became lively, scolding and shouting, and there were also those who took the opportunity to take advantage of the women who watched the excitement...... For a while, it was like a pot of porridge, and it used to be so crowded to see the lanterns during the Lantern Festival, and then the fifty-four Qinglou tiles in Bianliang chose the Oiran...... Who has ever seen such a big scene of drinking in a restaurant?

There's no way, let's open the whole thing!

The three jars of fine wine were brought up, and then a three-color porcelain bowl was placed in front of each of the eighteen judges, the cyan was filled with the wine from Gaoyang Zhengdian Sihai Wine Workshop, the black was the wine from Baifan Lou, and the white was the wine from Pan Lou.

Three bowls are tasted together, and the bowls are stacked in front of the seats of one, two, and three, and the top is the best in the eyes of the judges!

Song Wen was standing next to the window on the second floor of the Gaoyang Zhengdian in a cyan cloth robe, and behind him was Lin Chong with a nervous look.

Lin Chong frowned and asked softly, "Brother Wen, can you win?"

Song Wen pursed his lips: "Remove your word!" Can you win...... However, this Baifan Building is not authentic! actually secretly asked for foreign aid to deceive, and last night at the back door, he actually asked a eunuch in the imperial city to drive them to send them more than a dozen jars of wine, and they brought it today...... It should be those wines. ”

A figure approached the window and asked behind the two, "You mean, Bai Fanlou borrowed the imperial wine from the palace to compete with us?" Is this serious? ”

Song Wen looked back at Zhao Shenyan's wife, Pingniang, and nodded: "Don't dare to deceive Zhao Niangzi...... Indeed it is. ”

Ping Niang frowned: "Then it's troublesome, the wine in the palace is made with the best koji, grain, dried fruits and medicinal herbs at any cost, how can our spirits made with ordinary wine be the opponent ......?"

Song Wen pursed his lips: "Just wait and see, anyway...... Tomorrow, our Sihai Wine Shop will open for business, and it's a big deal to win the second place. ”

Ping Niang sighed: "In order to promote this wine fight, it cost a lot of silver, right?"

"Uh, it's okay!"

"Hmph, I also bought a hundred taels of spirits from the Four Seas Wine Workshop in Gaoyang Zhengdian, if you lose...... You'll have to pay me two hundred taels! ”

Song Wen was stunned for a moment: "What does Mrs. Zhao mean?"

"Don't think you're going to buy some helpless little beggars to find out the news! Bianliang's Huayi Gang was a few decades ahead of your little beggars...... If you make such a big bet, you are not afraid of going bankrupt? ”

Song Wen laughed: "I'm still a slave little turtle father!" I don't have any money in the first place! Who's afraid of this? ”

"Crazy! If you lose, don't think you can run for your life......" Zhao Niangzi Pingniang snorted coldly, turned around and sat on an embroidery pier to drink tea.

"Poof!" "Poof......

"Ahh What a spicy wine......"

"When, why is this wine so strong?"

"Oops, it's full of wine...... Amazing, the drinks in Gaoyang Zhengdian are amazing, and they deserve to be time-honored! ”

"I didn't see it, this is the wine co-brewed by Sihai Wine Workshop and Gaoyang Zhengdian, burning spring!"

"Four Seas Wine Workshop...... A new brewery? Who is the proprietor? ”

"It is said that it is the Zhao family...... After a squire in the former military department, his wife is the royal family! After the gate, there is some ...... of heritage"

"It's all yesterday's yellow flowers, where is it worthy of the backstage ...... of Baifanlou Panlou"

"......Shhh But this liquor is really good! One bite is like drinking a fire, and the aftertaste is endless! ”

"But the color of this new wine in Baifanlou is pale green with silver, and there is a hint of medicinal fragrance! It seems to be an inner palace technique...... Awesome! Not bad indeed......"

The eighteen judges began to stack the wine bowls, and the old face of Pan Lou's shopkeeper turned white instantly...... I also knew that my Pan Lou was here to accompany the prince to study today, but what does the bottom of this white bowl mean? Is Lao Tzu Pan Lou's wine so unbearable?

The only judge who lowered his head and put the white bowl on the top, Pan Lou's shopkeeper took a look...... It's especially the shopkeeper of the wine shop who specializes in supplying drinks to himself, and his heart is both uncomfortable and embarrassing, if you have a little face, it is better not to let go, and it is even more shameful to do so!

At the end of the judging, the selection of the first wine ...... Gaoyang Zhengdian and Baifan Building are 7 to 7! Pan Lou only has one vote!

Everyone looked at an old man in a Taoist robe sitting on the very edge, the old man was the old proprietor of one of the oldest wineries in Bianliang, and he had been lifted when he was young...... In the end, he simply gave up his writing, sold his land, and opened a winery, specializing in brewing fine wine...... He never studied again in his life and got married, and was regarded by the world as an alcoholic outlier and a geek in wine.

Since Pan Lou had already raised his hand to surrender, there was no need to count the second place...... Now this vote is crucial, and all eyes are on the old man.

The old man looked at the black wine bowl in front of him...... He said: "Three-color new rice three-color old rice...... Deer antler bear bone Sancai fairy koji! This is a real heavenly handiwork! ”

Everyone turned their heads to look at the shopkeeper of Bai Fanlou, and the shopkeeper Liu turned red, and still gestured to the Quartet...... Not bat an eye.

The shopkeeper Meng of Gaoyang Zhengdian sneered: "Why didn't Bai Fanlou take out such a fine wine above the guild the day before yesterday?"

"Ahaha...... Bai Fanlou has its own heritage, how can it swagger around as soon as it has gains? Besides, the cost of this new style of wine is too expensive, and Baifan Lou only serves it appropriately to guests with valuable status! ”
