Yuan Fu Nushu

Chapter 300, buy wine

Under normal circumstances, when encountering troubles, Hou Ping does not take out the official documents first. They are merchant ships, and such things happen every year when they suddenly take out an official document. It is not surprising to take it out.

However, Hou Ping brought at least two official documents, one was issued by the Ministry of Accounts, claiming that the convoy was related to the Ministry of Accounts, and let a person who should be interrogated release it.

In a place like the Northwest, you can't take out the official documents of the General Zhen Guo's yamen at will, and "do things cheaply" will alarm the King of Pingxi County.

It is the easiest and most trouble-free to release the silver, otherwise it would be another copy to take an official document. If Hou Ping led a team to inspect it, he would also be suspicious, afraid that he would encounter a spy?
When Wang Ergou blocked the money, Hou Ping thought for a moment which official document would be more appropriate. When Wang Ergou said, this is the convoy to Guxi?
Hou Ping and Yun Fei looked at each other, and a new vigilance arose in their hearts. This person is only afraid of making an annual ceremony?
It's not that they are proud that the gift from the prince is good, but that there is no place to buy the wine in Beijing. Only by finding a place to give tribute wine and getting acquainted with the owner of the winery, maybe they can get some.

It is bitter cold in the Northwest, wine and vinegar are good things, and it is a joy to give these two gifts to the prospective owner.

Vinegar can produce body fluid, and it is a good product for replenishing water during wars. It is abundant here in the northwest. It would not be surprising if Yun Zhan sent Wang Ergou, and Yun Zhan would not send it. On the contrary, when Hou Ping and Yun Fei left last time, they bought it. A large amount of vinegar was taken away; the first function of wine in the army was to wash the wounds, and the rest was to keep out the cold and relieve fatigue, but not everyone carried wine to wash the wounds, so the two functions of keeping out the cold and relieving fatigue were the most widely used.

The strong wine here in the northwest is not easy to drink. The picture is to warm up immediately after drinking. This kind of strong wine is also sent by Yunzhan. The old cellars from various places are as strong as a ball of fire down the throat, and some have a soft taste. Ergou is not attracted to all spirits.

Ever since he took a sip of the tribute wine, the color was as golden as honey, and the aroma lingered on his taste buds for several days. He also thought in his dreams that the good wine he could drink every day was tasteless.

Wang Ergou believed that after the honey wine sent by the old man's son-in-law, there was no good wine in the world that could impress him.

This guy's idea was to drink, and Hou Pingyunfei knew that the things he was escorting were good, so it was useless to take out the official documents, not to mention that Wang Ergou first mentioned Yuanyuan "Master", at this time, he took out the official documents to press the colleagues of his in-laws Not suitable either.

Hou Ping withdrew his raised hand from his bosom, and said to Wang Ergou: "We are going to Guxi City. General Hua Tianyu said to report his name in case of any accident." rise.

By this time Hou Ping had probably guessed what Wang Ergou wanted to do with his own things. Although he was not completely sure, maybe the soldier in front of him had other things to say.

But seeing him speak out about his in-laws but not in a domineering manner, with a smile on his face and a believable face, this is not looking for trouble, Hou Ping also dealt with him calmly.

The official position of the in-laws is too small, and Hua Tianyu, the city guard, is relatively famous. Hua Tianyu has indeed said such things, reporting my name in case of trouble in the northwest.

Wang Ergou laughed: "General Hua, I don't know you well," his eyes continued to shine, and he stared at the cargo unloaded from the ship while they were talking. Wang Ergou on the altar couldn't take his eyes off it, and at the same time showed his mouth watering.

At this point, Hou Ping and Yun Fei knew that they were right. The smiling person came over with the idea of ​​a new year ceremony.

When giving gifts for the Mid-Autumn Festival, I thought about all the situations going to the Northwest, and the checkpoints passing by, and the money collection cards will also appear. Hou Ping and Yunfei don't mind bringing down a jar of wine, but they have to give it clearly.

For example, the team leader can escort the convoy through the ground of Lanyuan City smoothly, and tell the convoy not to send out any more things. Otherwise, why should he accept a jar of wine worth hundreds of taels of silver?All the wine sent by the prince is good, and the lowest price is a few taels of silver for a catty, not the kind of bad wine that mixes two pennies with a big bowl of water.

For those who are incompetent and must be stuck with things, at most open a jar of wine and give him ten or twenty catties. This is a few dozen taels of silver as a gift. You can drink more.

good wine?

People who collect money still care about good wine, and they stop here to make money, not wine.

This is the idea of ​​Hou Ping and Yun Fei, they are not in Wang Ergou's belly, they don't know that Wang Ergou appears to earn wine, he only wants wine.

Wang Ergou squeezed out more smiles: "Don't mention General Hua, let's talk about Lao Yuan, Mr. Yuan Yuan is my confidant, you come to see him, I have to entertain him, walk, work hard all the way, come to my place for a drink A bowl of hot water."

Hou Ping and Yunfei looked at each other, the sky was snowing, the ground was covered with snow, we went out to hurry, we didn't just drink a bowl of hot water when we met, the two of them stayed in place.

Wang Ergou knew that they didn't believe him, so in order to be more authentic, he said calmly: "I'm really a good friend of Lao Yuan, I know you are my daughter's team, and my daughter's people have arrived in the northwest, can I not entertain you? "

But he didn't have much money, Captain Wang still laughed: "Nothing else, I can afford a bowl of hot water."

Hou Ping and Yunfei are strangely eye-catching. There are many people in the Northwest who are not afraid of death, and there are many people who have opinions on promotion. Lieutenant General Zhang Liang in Guxi is as young as this one. Lieutenant General Zhang is still a baby. Good aunt, Hou Ping had an itchy fist at the time, and today he encountered another one.

This is also asking for a takeaway, can I not be promoted?
The low-level official position is the king of Pingxi County, and if he wants to rise up, the Ministry of War has the final say, and the Ministry of War is in the hands of Yun Zhan, and Shangshu still has the time to say.

When Wang Ergou was frothing and getting close to his "daughter", he didn't expect that there would be problems in his promotion.

Hou Ping couldn't listen to it anymore, and he couldn't really hit him, so he simply said, "Whatever you want, just say it."

The rough guy Wang Ergou likes it for a while, and he will be speechless if he keeps talking. He is a soldier, not a scholar in the county king's tent. He puts the hand blocking Hou Ping's money In his arms, he took out a few ingots, and said grandly: "20 taels of silver, I will buy you ten catties of wine."

Two taels of silver a catty is a lot, Wang Ergou felt that he did not treat his daughter's family badly, the most expensive restaurant he usually drank sold for one tael a catty, and Wang Ergou used to drink the kind that was twenty cents a catty.

Hou Ping and Yun Fei heaved a sigh of relief, this was easy to pass up, they both turned their heads and called to the buddy: "Break out ten catties of the old cellar of that plaster jar." Then they smiled at Wang Ergou: "There is no need to collect the money." 20 Two is not enough, and the worst Laojiao wine brought out is more than three or two per catty.

Wang Ergou waved his hands vigorously: "I don't want Laojiao, I want it, I want it," he scratched his head and couldn't say it, and suddenly patted his crotch: "The wine that is the same color as pee has a fragrance, yes, the color of honey , haha, I'm a savage who doesn't know how to use analogies."

Give another gift of money: "I'll give you the money."

The surrounding air froze in an instant, and the north wind blew out another gust of cold. Hou Ping and Yun Fei stared at this greedy ghost, 20 taels of silver to buy wine, are you sure you would buy it for less than one tael?

The two of them almost vented their anger and said, "I won't sell it for a few dollars."

Wang Ergou didn't know that what he wanted was tribute wine, let alone the value of tribute wine. Some tribute wine was only brewed for the royal family, and there was nowhere to buy it in the market. There are also rich people who buy two catties.

The color of the golden honey wine that Wang Ergou said, there are three kinds in the New Year ceremony, one is called Wanzhumi, one is called Golden Juice, and the third is Wuyang.Jingli Tongyunju has a backstage, and they can get this kind of wine for sale. After the hype, the current price is 360 taels per catty, 16 taels per catty, and 22 taels of silver per catty, and it is only for people with status, nouveau riche The rich man eats at Tongyunju, and the guys don't mention this kind of wine at all.

Yun Zhan sent old cellars all over the place, one thousand catties by one thousand catties, each of the tribute wine was five hundred catties, and some were one hundred catties. This son-in-law was not showing off his wealth. Mixed with medicinal materials, it is also used as medicinal wine and health care in the palace.

Yuan Yuan studied as a doctor in Guxi, and his son-in-law sent pills, prescriptions, and medicinal wine, which can be described as caring.

Wang Ergou is happy holding the silver, is he proud of taking advantage of his daughter? Hou Ping and Yunfei are like stone sculptures and wood sculptures. This is taking advantage of others, isn't it?

There was a brief stalemate between the two sides, and another group of people came, and the leader was handsome. This was Tang Lu, another younger brother of Prince Pingxi. It's all eye-catching.
