Chapter 9 Let the aroma of wine waft for a while

On this day, the morning light was fading, and people who got up early to work in the city began to take to the streets one after another, while the vendors setting up stalls were shrinking their necks, looking forward to a good start.

It's still early, and it's the season of cold spring. The early morning chill is teasing everyone who has no luck and snooze, as if their life is walking on thin ice, and the bitterness and suffering are always pervasive.

Just as people were walking through the bustling market full of breakfast shops, a strong and tantalizing fragrance floated from the distance, which indisputably overwhelmed the rich smell of various breakfast delicacies at other stalls.

"Hmm, what does this smell like?"

An old man carrying a hoe on his shoulder tried his best to open his nostrils and take a sniff. Suddenly, the alluring aroma penetrated his nostrils and quickly reached the sky.

The incomparably wonderful taste made him shiver all over, and then his body involuntarily searched for the taste.

"Lao Gu, you damn drunkard, are you drunk so early in the morning before you even drink?" the shortbread vendor laughed and cursed.

Lao Gu held his chest and slumped back, showing an intoxicated look on his face. People who didn't know better thought he was still hungover and was acting like a drunk.

When his figure staggered at the entrance of a certain alley, a man's excited shouts came from the other end.

"Come on, come on, finally see a living person!"

The person who expressed such emotion was Wu Qingshan, who hadn't slept a wink all night. If Jiang Chen hadn't told him that they would make a lot of money after today, he would have clamored to have a good night's sleep.

.

But in the end, his sleepiness was interrupted by the dream of getting rich, and he continued to work with Jiang Chen until now, and finally he was able to stop and take a rest.

"This is...a liquor store?"

Drunkard Lao Gu narrowed his eyes and vaguely saw a flag floating in front of him, with something written in red letters on a black background.

Although he couldn't see clearly, his nose was very sharp. The unique aroma permeating the surroundings was undoubtedly a unique sign of the best wine. He couldn't wait to drink a bowl.

"Old man, how is it? Is the aroma of my wine unique?"

Lao Gu nodded seriously, "I have been drinking wine for most of my life, and I have never smelled such a fragrant wine. Please pour me a bowl!"

Jiang Chen smiled at this time and said: "Old man, you just need to tell me which restaurant you think has the best wine, then I will treat you to the bowl of wine today."

Lao Gu's eyes suddenly lit up and he answered without thinking: "This is a simple question. The best drink is of course Zhaojiazhuang's Erdaochun. Just thinking about the taste can make me drool."

Erdaochun is the signature drink of Zhao He's wine shop. It is indeed a well-known good wine and is well-known in the surrounding areas.

Therefore, this answer was not at all what Jiang Chen expected, but he still kept his promise and poured a large bowl directly for Lao Gu.

"Old man, you said that Er Dao Chun is the best wine you have ever drunk. That's because you have only drank that thing. I dare to bet you that you will change your mind immediately after drinking my bowl of wine.

Already."

Lao Gu shook his head and chuckled: "Young man, you have such a strong breath! Have you ever drank Er Dao Chun?"

"That wine is very valuable. I only drank it once at my distant nephew's wedding banquet, and I still can't forget it! If you ask me, I don't have that much knowledge in the world, but I can only say that the land under our feet is worth two swords.

Spring is the best wine!"

Wu Qingshan stood aside, and some bosses were unhappy.

He curled his lips and said in disgust: "Hey, old man, if you want to drink our wine, you have to say something nice. Why are you so ignorant?"

But Jiang Chen didn't take it seriously, and handed the bowl of wine to Lao Gu generously. The latter first stuck out his head and smelled greedily, and then slowly and slowly let the wine pour into his mouth.

Flow slowly.

From this look, he looked like a wine connoisseur, which was why Jiang Chen valued him so much.

As the wine slid down his throat, Lao Gu's face was filled with a happy smile, as if he had been a bachelor for half his life and finally married a fair-skinned and beautiful wife.

"This... what kind of nectar is this?"

After pondering over it carefully, he finally expressed his admiration.

Jiang Chen asked again at this time: "Old man, how does my wine compare with Er Daochun?"

Lao Gu replied without thinking: "Er Daochun is nothing. Compared with your bowl of wine, it's like horse piss!"

Jiang Chen and Wu Qingshan burst out laughing at the same time, not only because of Lao Gu's interesting metaphor, but also because the energy they had put in for the past half month finally received its due reward.

"Old man, I bought all your drinks today, but I want you to change your story immediately. When you go out, you have to tell everyone that the best wine you have ever drank was Jiang Yuebai."

Jiang Yuebai's name is naturally taken from the names of Jiang Chen and Wu Yue. Put together like this, I didn't expect it to be both nice and poetic.

"Jiang Yuebai! What a good name! Don't worry, everyone in the city knows it. As long as the wine makes me feel good, I can't go wrong with it."

"Soon, those greedy people will know about your Jiang Yuebai. When the time comes, your business will be prosperous and you will make money every day!"

With Lao Gu's approval, the Jiang Yuebai brewed by Jiang Chen has taken the first step towards becoming famous all over the world. He is fully confident that this wine will appear on the wine tables of thousands of households.

Of course, he will not forget the two dandies of the Lin family and Zhao He's suppression of him. This revenge will be repaid sooner or later, and the goal will not be too far away.

After sending Lao Gu away, Jiang Yuebai's unique and rich wine aroma attracted many people one after another. They all got the opportunity to taste it for free, and they all praised it after drinking it.

Wu Qingshan couldn't help but ask Jiang Chen, "I said, uncle, since our wine is so delicious, why don't we sell it in the busy market, or directly put it in Lin Qingxuan's Zuixian Tower."

"Which one is better than just hiding in this dark and narrow alley, right?"

Jiang Chen smiled and said: "Haven't you heard that the smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys? Besides, we can't let Zhao He find out the details for the time being, so finding a place like this is just right."

In this way, it is indeed true. Jiang Chen always has superior opinions, which makes Wu Qingshan admire him very much.

For three days in a row, the two of them were selling wine in this alley. To be more precise, it should be called gifting wine, because they did not accept even a penny from anyone else.

This made Lin Qingxuan unable to sit still. He made a special trip to Jiang Chen to ask about this matter. Judging from his anxious look, he knew that he was suppressed by two cousins ​​in the Lin family.
