Drinking wine and drinking wine alternately, pushing cups and changing cups.
If Wu Xian and Qin Li were both here, they would be able to recognize that the people present were either from the Tianhai family or important members of Wu Xian's account. At a glance, there were more than twenty people. Everyone was enjoying the delicious food arranged by Xu Jie, Sizhu
The orchestra complements the graceful dance.
Everyone seems to be immersed in it, but in fact they are absent-minded.
After the song was over, the dancers, musicians, and others bowed and left.
The person closest to Xu Jie was the first to lose his composure and randomly picked up a topic as a breakthrough point to get to the point.
"Entertainment of the whole Tianhai is still a literary annotation meeting."
Xu Jie was also absent-minded.
Hearing this, he asked, "How do you say this?"
The man smiled and said: "Who doesn't know that Wen Zhu's family raises the best dancing girls? If it weren't for a good day, Wen Zhu would still hide her from others. The sight today is even better than the rumors."
Xu Jie felt quite unhappy in his heart and acted a little drunk. He held his cheek with his knuckles and rolled his eyes to see who was speaking clearly.
He said indifferently: "How come? Is there anyone who likes me?"
That man also knows how to steer according to the wind.
Hearing the displeasure in Xu Jie's words, he quickly waved his hand: "Hahaha, I didn't mean that. A gentleman does not take away what others like."
Others present were eating tea and drinking in silence.
It’s really a matter of which pot should not be opened.
It is very common for wealthy families to buy several dancing girls and musicians. Usually, entertainment programs are needed to enliven the atmosphere during banquets. If the host wants to win over the guests or the guests are of high status, they may even ask the dancing girls and musicians to wait on the guests for the night.
However, not every household is like this.
People who are a little more particular disdain this.
The Xu family may have done it before establishing a foothold in Tianhai, but Xu Jie didn't do it here. The dancing girls and musicians only came out to perform at festival banquets. Not only that, Xu Jie also particularly disliked this habit of entertaining guests with dancing girls and musicians.
If you make a sound, this person really doesn't want to open any pot.
Who doesn't know that Mrs. Mi, who is both beautiful and beautiful, was bought by Xu Jie at a high price in the backyard of the lord Wu Xian, and was begged away by the lord Wu Xian the next day? Because here, Xu Jie was openly and secretly despised, saying that he was a dignified Xu Jie.
The head of the family actually used the method of sacrificing his women to gain power and interests, and the common people in the market even used this to speculate on a bloody drama of "two men fighting for one woman" and "the master snatching his concubine".
They all thought that there was going to be a conflict between the two.
Who knows what to do.
Mrs. Mi Side was not affected by the gossip from the outside world. She was quite fond of Wu Xian and gave birth to two young men one after another. In recent years, few people have mentioned this matter again, but this situation, this scene, and the meaning in Xu Jie’s words
Indifferent, I couldn't help but think of it.
Some people below rolled their eyes inwardly.
What’s wrong with the answer? “A gentleman never takes what others like”. Who wouldn’t think this has a connotation? By the way, even the protagonist Wu Xian was at fault. For a while, the atmosphere of the party was a little stiff. Fortunately, there was someone with whom Xu Jie
The head of the family, who had a good personal relationship, came out to smooth things over and changed the topic to what Xu Jie had seen and heard in Heyin.
Xu Jie's expression improved slightly.
The others also tacitly moved the topic to He Yin, and finally got to the wine.
They didn't care what happened to Shen Tang or how much He Yin had changed under Shen Tang's rule. They just wanted to know whether the effects of those wines were real! Apart from Shen Tang, only Xu Jie had this wine.
They also know Xu Jie's temperament.
I cherish feathers the most, especially those in business.
At that time, they joked that they would give Wu Xian 20 granary grain stores, but later they actually gave it to him. In fact, it was not less than ten cents.
Xu Jie said that if it has a magical effect, it really does.
"It's natural. I've asked several people to try it. It can't be faked." Xu Jie saw that everyone's appetites were also whetted. He clapped his hands and two rows of maids filed in. Each held a golden copper wine in their hands.
The pot, every part of the pot body is smooth and delicate.
This group of people had no intention of drinking and dining, nor singing and dancing. If they had not paid attention to their manners, they would have been unable to sit still for a long time.
Continuing to whet your appetite is counterproductive.
I am anxious, but there is no one to grab it.
Instead, he held the small wine glass and took a sip of the wine.
The aroma of the wine is refreshing and astounding, and it is indeed of the highest quality.
But in addition to the excellent aroma of the wine, the color of the wine is clear...
Nothing seems special.
This wine is quite different from what they imagined.
Seeing the different expressions on their faces, Xu Jie smiled solemnly and raised his glass: "This kind of fine wine is rare. I only have one hundred and fifty jars left in my hand, and Mr. Shen doesn't even have one jar...
…I invite you all to taste it together today. Please——”
Then everyone toasted to Xu Xie, who was in charge.
"please!"
The mellow wine slides down the throat and rolls into the internal organs.
First thought——
This wine is indeed top quality.
There are many people present who have good wines. Only they themselves know how many good wines they have tasted on one tongue. Even they are so picky, they have to admit that this is indeed good wine.
However, they didn’t come here for the taste of wine.
Then a second thought emerged——
wonderful!
The people who came to this party were either brave warriors or literary scholars. As the wine slipped into their throats, they focused on the Dan Mansion. They were surprised to find that bursts of warmth sprouted from the Dan Mansion, spreading along the meridians to
All limbs and bones.
It was an extremely subtle and comfortable feeling.
It was as if the whole body was completely open, absorbing the energy of the surrounding heaven and earth into his body, and the speed of the literary/martial energy circulated faster. Although the effect was not very obvious, it was scary enough! Suddenly someone put down the wine glass with a clang.
He opened his mouth and asked, "Wen Zhu still has one hundred and fifty altars in his hand?"
Xu Jie smiled and said, "Yes."
The man asked: "Can you even out the thirty jars?"
He didn't ask for much.
After all, there are so many big-tailed wolves present who are eyeing them, but many people are anxious to ask for thirty altars at the beginning - their talents and family backgrounds all have shortcomings, and they are simply not good enough compared to other giants. In the end, they can be divided
To which altar?
Xu Jie smiled and said, "It won't work."
The man took a step back when he heard this: "Twenty-five altars!"
Xu Jie could only explain with a wry smile: "This is not a matter of how many altars. Shen Jun's ability is limited, and he has invested a lot of effort in rebuilding Heyin. Last year, he didn't have much energy to make wine. In addition, money was tight and the output was small.
So little. If we divide it all at once, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Mr. Shen to explain it. Mr. Shen is annoyed, but he won't sell me this year's wine."
When the man heard this, he couldn't help but agree with Qin Li in his heart.
Qin Li's words still make sense.
Now that there is a recipe for brewing wine, grab it and grab it. It’s not up to you to decide how much you brew. It’s so tight. One hundred and fifty jars is not enough for his family. But I can only think about this in my heart.
I think, not to mention that my lord Wu Xian will not agree to do this. Even if he agrees, who knows what the restrictions are on brewing this wine? It is impossible to produce unlimited production of such a spiritual wine.
If so, there is no use in grabbing it.
Others asked: "How come there are so few?"
Another person asked: "Could it be that Jun Shen made the annotation?"
Xu Jie couldn't help but laugh at this question.
Deceived him?
He has been at the helm of Xu's business for many years, and he has always been the only one who has been shady for others. In terms of making suggestions, he is not as good as other literati, but in terms of business skills, who can be better than him?
Xu Jie naturally knew that Shen Tang had more than just these drinks.
He said this also to increase the value of the wine in his hand. It should be understood that rare things are valuable, and it is not surprising that no matter how good the things are, they will become a disaster. One hundred jars of wine can earn one hundred taels, and one jar of wine can earn one hundred taels. There is a difference between the two!
Tianhai is not a poor place like Heyin.
Naturally, the strength of each family is not comparable to that of a few poor families who only know how to fish, and they can afford this money.
Xu Jie was already calculating the bottom line of each family in his heart.
But his face showed regret and embarrassment.
"Can't you divide it all at once?"
Someone noticed what Xu Jie said.
Is it possible to sell it in batches?
Xu Jie said: "I discussed with Mr. Shen. Mr. Shen meant to sell ten altars at a time. However, the price is not easy to control - after all, those who had this effect before were all treasures. After thinking about it, I decided I got a base price of ten taels.”
"Ten altars and twelve taels?"
This is equivalent to giving it away for free.
Everyone secretly wondered why Xu Jie did this kind of business?
This guy is not a philanthropic person.
As expected——
"No, no, the low price is ten taels, but the final price depends on the buyer. The one with the highest price will get it." This bidding method is not uncommon. The one with the highest price will get it, and the one with the lowest price will not get it.
Everyone looked at each other and looked around.
Those who used family friendships and personal relationships to operate behind the scenes were also worried. If it was purely based on financial resources... what's the point? Those who have the ability can swallow them all.
At this time, someone with a weak family foundation asked in a low voice: "This wine... how much more can it produce this year?"
There are other competitors, so it is difficult to get this batch.
But if there is a lot of output this year——
Maybe there's a chance to buy some.
Xu Jie said ambiguously: "It's hard to tell. After all, Shen Jun is the governor of Heyin County. He has to deal with several piles of official duties that are as tall as one person every day. In addition, Heyin is short of various materials, so it is not too difficult to do this." Shang Xin... I guess it won’t be too much?”
Everyone: "..."
Can't Shen Jun squat at home and make a good wine?
The spiritual wine brewed by Lord Shen benefited brave warriors and literati, and didn't it also indirectly benefit countless common people?
What kind of county guard do you want to be?
As long as I'm not exhausted, I'll squat in the winery!
For a moment, everyone had various expressions on their faces.
Xu Jie seemed to be persuading everyone in a considerate way: "Although this wine has a magical auxiliary effect, it is not a panacea after all. The effect can only be said to be better than nothing. In the process of cultivation, hard work is the right way. It is best to have such external substances. If there is no It won’t affect anything.”
The price should be high, but not too high.
After all, it is too high, so the Lord Wu Xian should have some objections.
It will inevitably make Wu Xian jealous, thinking that he is betraying and collaborating with the enemy and making money for Shen Tang in the name of drinking. Qin Li is still staring at him. Xu Jie only wants to make money, not to lose his life. He knows his propriety and will not easily get into trouble. Upper body.
After everyone heard this, their minds cooled down a little.
Xu Jie's words are not unreasonable.
only--
It's the same as running. It's easier to run with the wind pushing you from behind than running against the wind. This wine is that "wind".
For people with excellent or extremely poor talents, this wine is not of much use - for the former it is to enjoy the appetite and nourish the body by the way, for the latter it is useless, but for people with mediocre talents, it is
Who wouldn’t be tempted by someone who can achieve a qualitative change in just one breath?
No one can help but be moved.
——————
"Ten altars were bought for four hundred and sixty taels?"
On the evening of the second day, after Wu Xian finished his work, he went back to the backyard to sit down at the Madam's side, taking a foot bath and resting. Not long after he sat down, he received the news of today's big event - today's ten jars of wine, after several rounds of price increases, were announced.
Sold for four hundred and sixty taels.
The wife was looking down at the backyard expenses and was surprised when she heard this: "What kind of wine is forty-six taels per jar?"
