Chapter 2147: Little expert in scientific governance (17)
Wine is a specialty of Dachang Kingdom. A jar of wine can only cost two taels of silver.
Grape vinegar comes from spoiled wine.
As for pickle water, vomit
The smell is so disgusting just thinking about it.
They took out ten taels of gold, but the amount of gold on the market was not as large as that of silver.
Therefore, the premium phenomenon is very serious.
Although the gold and silver exchange ratio is one to ten, in fact, in private transactions, it can reach one to thirteen.
In other words, today I took out one hundred and thirty taels of silver, but what I got back was a glass of fake wine mixed with vinegar and pickle water.
Not a jar, but a cup. ??
Are you afraid that you won't be able to fight?
The guard complained as he walked out. Although he despised the behavior of rich people, how could he, a subordinate, disobey his master's orders?
Looking at the back of the guard, Fugui seemed to suddenly think of something, and added to the guard, "I brought the whole jar, and I'm looking for two old small jars."
Guard: "What happened to this gentleman?"
If something happened to Fugui, the guards would soon find out.
Fugui first put the cooking wine into small jars, then put one of the jars away, and then asked the guards to take the contents of the big jar and destroy the corpse.
Then he went to find the envoy with another small jar.
When he came, all the envoys happened to be dining in the dining room. Fugui, who looked like a banished immortal, came over with a small jar. Everyone's eyes were on him, as if they wanted to ask what Fugui was holding in his hand.
What is.
Fugui walked quickly to the envoy, first carefully opened the seal that had just been made on the small jar in his hand, and then scooped out a glass of wine with a brand-new wine and placed it in front of the envoy: "This hundred-year-old wine
You should taste it immediately after opening it, otherwise it will lose its flavor."
Although it was mixed with other things, the color of the wine was still first-class.
A beautiful smile appeared on Fugui's lips, which immediately captured everyone's attention.
Although we know that the genders are the same, it does not hinder everyone's appreciation of beauty.
Beautiful wine, beautiful people, beautiful prices, beautiful smiles, the envoy looked at the wealth with a fascinated look on his face, and at the same time unconsciously sipped the wine in his hand.
The envoy "" set up something, he felt that his foot-washing water tasted better than this thing.
But seeing the obvious taste in the beauty's eyes, I know you are a person with good taste.
The envoy bravely swallowed the wine in his mouth, and then gave a thumbs up to Fugui, "The century-old wine is indeed well-deserved."
The etiquette officer in charge of the reception in Dachang Kingdom first glanced at Fugui in confusion. What kind of century-old wine is this? It can only be left out for one winter at most. If it exceeds a year, it will grow hair!
But after seeing Fugui's face, he still responded, "This should be Da Sinong's treasure. He is willing to part with it because of the loss."
This is the postmaster appointed by the Queen. Her Majesty has an order that no matter what the other party does, they must actively cooperate.
After hearing the etiquette officer's words, everyone's eyes fell on Fugui and the wine jar in his hand.
The beauty is dressed in white and holds an old wine jar in her hand, which is very eye-catching.
Seeing everyone staring at the wine jar in his hand, he grinned richly, "It was the envoy who said he wanted to try this century-old wine, so I specially asked my grandfather. I can only say that he is indeed an envoy for the benefit of the country.
It’s so generous that I can’t refuse it
Absolutely."
Fugui looked at the envoy, his eyes shining brightly.
The envoy who spent ten taels of gold to buy a glass of pickle water suddenly puffed up his chest. He felt that his status among the envoys was completely different.
Originally, everyone was the same, but suddenly there appeared a tall and distinguished envoy who was "generous and forthright" in the eyes of beautiful women, and the mentality of the others suddenly collapsed.
After asking about the price of the wine, in order to prove that they would not lose face, the envoys present all expressed their desire to buy this legendary "wine that has not grown hair for a hundred years" with the rich man.
Among the envoys from the thirteen countries, twelve envoys took out ten taels of gold.
The guard holding a bag of gold bars had a numb expression on his face. He felt like he was looking at a group of fools.
Yasen, the only one present who did not pay, looked at everyone with a half-smile but suddenly asked Fugui, "I remember that the Dachang Kingdom was only fifty-three years old. I wonder when this century-old wine was brewed."
The envoys who were enjoying the sky-high price of wine froze, and then all looked at Fugui.
The smile on Fugui's face did not change at all, and nostalgia flashed in his eyes: "My father is a big farmer. This is a special contribution from a local old man to express his gratitude for his father's achievements. Unfortunately, the old man has passed away, and there are only two jars of this wine!"
A sigh that seemed to be filled with endless melancholy, which further illustrates the value of this wine.
Seeing the beauty frowning, everyone present was worried, and they cherished the wine in their hands even more.
Some people looked at Yasen quietly and asked if he couldn't afford it after saying so many words. It seemed that Qiuci's strength was no more than this.
After understanding the meaning in everyone's eyes, Yasen's smile froze, and his eyes drifted towards the empty wine jar that had been taken away. "It seems that my movements were a step too slow, so I have no chance with this century-old wine."
A breeze blew by, and Fugui's clothes and hair moved, as if he was riding the wind.
Then, he grinned at Yasen and said, "How can I bear to disappoint you, sir? No, another jar of wine has been delivered. Please let me see how many glasses are suitable." Don't lose your dignity as a great country!
Your Majesty has a purpose, and he is not afraid of losing face, let alone falling out. As long as he can take money out of these people's pockets, His Majesty will know everything about what happened.
After a while, Fugui and his guards walked out of the banquet hall.
The envoys inside had begun to praise the taste of this century-old wine loudly, as if what they drank was truly a fine wine.
The guard holding nearly three hundred taels of gold was already in admiration for the wealth. He was so awesome.
Not only that a jar of fake wine was sold for a sky-high price, but the people inside even went out of their way to praise the deliciousness of the wine.
Especially Yasen, others only need one drink, but he has to drink a jar
The guard shuddered, this man is really a man!
Walking back to his room, Fugui suddenly stood still, then turned around and looked straight at the gold in the guard's hand.
His expression changed, and in the end there were two lines of tears, but there was a big smile on his lips.
The guard was so frightened that he thought the gentleman was just pretending to be calm, but in fact he was already very frightened.
Unexpectedly, when Fugui stretched out his hand and touched the gold, he suddenly burst into tears, "I just said I was useful. They all laughed at me and said I was a dude who only knew how to cheat money from my elders. But you are
Go out and see who can cheat me out of so much money at once, I am the most useful one."
Fugui cried so hard that he sat on the ground and kicked up his legs, looking like he had been holding it in for a long time.
