"Okay! Our family has been blessed this year. Haitao was promoted, Xiaoxia made money, Yuwei and Dapeng were admitted to their favorite universities, and now Hong Bin's business is doing better and better. All of them are
It's a great thing, a great joy. Come, take a sip and be happy!"
The uncle raised his glass again and took a sip. The whole family drank as much as they could. Only the aunt, Liu Yuwei and Liu Tianshuo did not drink. Liu Tianshuo was young and a snack foodie who only cared about eating. Liu Yuwei never drank. They
It's normal for the two of them not to drink, but my aunt is also a bit of a drinker. She usually drinks something to cheer up at family gatherings. For some reason, she drank mineral water today.
However, there were more than a dozen people at the table, but no one paid attention to what Liu Fengxia drank. Only Shen Dapeng saw through it but did not say anything. It was probably because my aunt was inconvenient these days and was too embarrassed to speak, so she drank plain water instead.
Shen Dapeng had just put down his wine glass when he turned around and saw that Jason was holding the bottle of foreign wine that his uncle had just put on the table. "Jason, you are a real foreigner. You should understand foreign wine, right?"
?”
"I can drink a little, but except for some important gatherings, I rarely drink, so I don't know much about it." Jason looked at the foreign wine package in his hand again, and put the bottle back to its place with a smile.
"Foreigners don't understand foreign wine. This doesn't make sense. Let's try it when we open it. Don't worry, it tastes good. That's enough."
Among the elders in the family, apart from the eldest uncle who likes to say a few words, the rest is the younger uncle who is the best at persuading people to drink, is also the most enthusiastic, and talks the most. If the younger uncle applies what he does at the business dinner table to his family, I guess there will be nothing after the dinner is over.
If a person can stand and leave without incident, of course, he himself will be included.
Half of the people at the table drank, and they were greedy for good wine. Each person took a few sips, and the bottle of Wuliangye was empty. Shen Haitao wanted to get another bottle, but was a little confused.
He was neither greedy nor dirty as an official, so how could he have a lot of money to buy luxury wine? The few bottles of good wine he saved were given to him on National Day by Liu Ningchen and Guo Lei, who knew he was greedy for drinking. One bottle was less than one bottle.
bottle.
"We always drink white wine. Hong Bin happened to have brought foreign wine this time. Shall we try it?"
As soon as Shen Haitao said this, Liu Hongshun glanced at him with a smile, "Brother-in-law, you said that you have already risen to the top and become the deputy county magistrate. Why are you still so stingy? I'll give you a drink and I'll make you feel bad."
"I don't feel bad. Why do I feel bad? Brother, you can really wrong people. It's not that Hong Bin brought so much foreign wine. I can't drink it alone. Let's try it quickly while there are many people today. If it tastes good, let's drink more.
, if it doesn’t taste good, or if I’m not used to it, I can ask Hong Bin to take it back and sell it for money.”
"I'm used to drinking it, and it tastes very good! My wine is almost out of stock. If I hadn't been negotiating for a provincial agent, the manufacturer wouldn't have been able to ship it to me before the year. Come on, open it!"
Liu Hongbin skillfully opened the foreign wine and pretended to be comfortable and sniffed at the mouth of the bottle. "Everyone has half a cup first and has a taste. The taste of this foreign wine is very easy to accept. It is spicy, sweet, rich, and mellow. If you think the taste is too strong, you can still drink it."
You can add some ice cubes or lemon, come on, have a taste..."
"Nonsense. When drinking wine, you have to warm it with boiling water. If you put ice cubes in the wine, is it good for your health? And if you add lemon, do you have to buy a lemon in advance to drink wine with a meal?"
Liu Hongshun is a relatively old-fashioned person. He is not a feudal stereotype, but he still has the traditional culture of seniority and inferiority in his bones. He is somewhat resistant to new things from outside. Fortunately, he likes drinking, otherwise the foreign wine in his glass would have been long ago.
Pushed aside.
"Since it's a brand represented by Hong Bin, let's try it. It just so happens that I haven't drunk foreign wine yet! Hehe..."
Shen Haitao took a tentative sip and smacked his lips to taste it carefully. The taste was not as spicy as white wine, nor as smooth as beer. It was also different from the sourness of red wine. It had sour, sweet, bitter and spicy taste, and the taste was complex and unclear.
The other people all stared at Shen Haitao, waiting for judgment. For a while, they didn't see any change in their expressions, so they all learned to taste it in small sips. Perhaps because they had never drank foreign wine, their expressions were almost the same as Shen Haitao's, neither surprised nor surprised.
I hate it, the taste is too ordinary.
But after all, this is a gift sent by Liu Hongbin to add to the fun, and it is a brand that will be represented by others. Everyone can drink it as a rare thing, but people like Shen Haitao who are used to the mellow taste of liquor will definitely not like it very much.
"The taste... is not bad, it's a bit stronger, like a Mongolian stuffed donkey, which will probably make you sick!" Liu Hongshun half-joked, and then took another sip.
"Foreign wines have a lot of stamina. Otherwise, foreigners are all tall and tall. If they don't drink some strong wine, they won't get drunk easily. Xiaoxia, you should try it too!"
Liu Hongbin deliberately tried to please Liu Fengxia and wanted to pour wine for Liu Fengxia, but Liu Fengxia blocked the mouth of the glass with her hand, "I'm not feeling well today, so I don't want to drink. Just like Dapeng and the others, I just have some drinks."
"Are you not feeling well? Then stop drinking and let Zhiwei drink more. If you think this is good, I am also thinking of letting you and your wife invest some money and we can form a joint venture together. Wait until I negotiate the provincial agent.
, if you don’t make millions a year, you can’t afford the agency fee of two million.”
Liu Hongbin always had a bright smile on his face, and when he mentioned the provincial agent again, he smiled from ear to ear, as if a lot of money had begun to slip into his pocket.
"That Jay..."
Liu Hongbin didn't remember Jason's name, so he stretched out his hand awkwardly, and Jason took the initiative to report his name, "Jason."
"Yes, Jason, please help me taste it. Is there any difference between this wine and the wine you have abroad?"
At Liu Hongbin's enthusiastic gesture, Jason raised his glass and took another sip. Looking at the calm Shen Dapeng on the side, he frowned slightly and said, "I don't drink often, so I can't taste anything. Judging from the brand packaging, it's fine."
"Of course. They are all produced by large foreign companies and wineries. It is not easy to import them into China, and the supply is often out of stock. In the future, if we are not provincial agents, it will be more difficult to get the goods! That's why I rushed to get them.
After talking with the agent, it turns out that the year before and after the New Year is the peak period for gift-giving, and the money may be recouped in a few months."
Liu Hongbin looked at his sister eagerly, but Liu Fengxia waved her hands repeatedly, "Brother, don't look at me. The company and factory are busy, and I'm not interested in your tobacco and wine shop business."
"It doesn't matter if you're interested or not, as long as you know you can make money, I have about 1.8 million on hand. If I can negotiate an agency for 1 million, I won't ask you to invest. If the company insists on 2 million...
Sister, you have to help me when the time comes. One million is nothing to you, right?"
