Chapter 88
"No matter what, it takes two or three hundred altars." Lin Feng said.Although many brothers are no longer here, I still have to toast them with a glass of wine.In addition to the people in Jinling, Lin Feng probably didn't talk much about the three hundred jars of wine.

"Three...three hundred altars?" Xiao Anzi asked tremblingly, stretching out three fingers.

Nodding his head, Lin Feng said, "That's right, it's three hundred jars of wine. Why, is there a problem?"

"My lord, this is a big problem. You have emptied my imperial dining room, and you still can't make up the amount you want." Xiao Anzi looked at Lin Feng with a bitter expression on his face, and said.

Since Xiao Anzi doesn't have so many here, Lin Feng doesn't mind either.Just a little less. "How much do you have?"

"Just five altars." Xiao Anzi said with a bitter face.

"How much? Only five altars!" Lin Feng asked loudly.There are only five jars of wine, which is not even enough to stuff the teeth.Don't tell others, Xin Hong promised a lot of wine.Such a small amount of wine is not enough for these generals in the capital!

Nodding his head very seriously, Xiao Anzi said, "That's right, just five jars. This was saved from before." Even the five jars of wine were also saved between teeth.Otherwise, with the royal family's expenses, would there be any leftovers?
"Such a drink is definitely not enough. You can find a way to get me some." Lin Feng said to Xiao Anzi.No matter what, he has to get one or two hundred jars of wine, otherwise, he will have an unstable life this year, after all, he promised Haikou at the beginning.It's too shameful that it can't be fulfilled now.

"My lord, even if I try to find a way, I won't be able to get all the three hundred jars of wine." Xiao Duozi said with a mournful face.

"Then where can I get wine?" Lin Feng asked.Since Xiao Anzi doesn't have one, then Xiao Anzi always knows where to get a bar.

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs." Xiao Anzi said.This wine was collected from the House of Internal Affairs when they needed it.And it still has to go through layers of approval, otherwise the wine would not be available.Otherwise, how could this royal wine appear so noble?
"Okay, I'll go to the Ministry of Internal Affairs." Lin Feng said, then turned to the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

The eunuchs of the Ministry of Internal Affairs are very polite.But when Lin Feng asked for wine, they all answered in unison: "No."

"Can your House of Internal Affairs have no wine?" Lin Feng asked.

Looking at Lin Feng, a leading eunuch of the House of Internal Affairs said, "Lord Lin, it's not that the slaves don't give it to you. It's because the wine is all registered. And the quantity is limited. The slaves really can't be the masters."

"What kind of good is this wine? Can you still have enough?" Lin Feng asked.

With a mournful face, the chief eunuch of the House of Internal Affairs looked at Lin Feng and said, "Master Lin, do you know how many top royal wines there are in the House of Internal Affairs?"

"How much?" Lin Feng asked.With the style of the royal family, can it be less?Isn't this a disgrace to the royal family?

Stretching out a finger, the chief eunuch said, "One hundred altars."

"How much?" Lin Feng was a little surprised. There is only one hundred jars of royal wine in such a huge palace, which is unreasonable.

Nodding his head, the chief eunuch said: "Lord Lin, you heard it right, it is a hundred altars. This royal wine is no better than other wines, and it is difficult to collect the raw materials for brewing. Besides, Sir, do you know how to brew royal wine? What is the water?"

"What? Could it be spring water?" Lin Feng asked.In Lin Feng's mind, it should be a luxury to use spring water to brew liquor.

"Lord Lin, this is royal wine. How could it be brewed with this spring water?" The chief eunuch said, "The water used to brew royal wine is all dew collected from Mount Tai. Think about it, this dew only takes a year. How much do you collect? Therefore, the annual output is naturally limited."

"It's brewed with dew?" Lin Feng asked in shock.How do you collect this dew?How much is a year?

"Not only is the water used to brew the royal wine special, but the raw materials are also special. A total of more than 100 kinds of grains are mixed and brewed. And the output of many of them is limited." Lin Feng was still in shock. Said something that shocked him.

Patting his head with some headaches, Lin Fengxin said: This time the cowhide is too big, and I can't take it back.He confidently agreed to the Royal Wine's management.Now, he himself may not even be able to come up with the amount for everyone to taste.

"If you want to take these royal wines from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, who needs to agree?" Lin Feng asked.Now he can only look for someone with a thick skin.It doesn't matter who it is, as long as it can get the wine.As for the quantity, the most is to take away all the hundred jars of wine.

"This, I'm afraid the prince needs to nod." The head eunuch of the Ministry of Internal Affairs said to Lin Feng.

Non-stop, Lin Feng went to look for the prince again, no matter what, he had to take the royal wine away today.Otherwise, the Haikou he boasted at the beginning really couldn't be fulfilled.

After exchanging pleasantries with Wang Gonggong for a while, Lin Feng directly explained the purpose of his visit.Hearing that Lin Feng wanted the royal wine, the prince did not hesitate at all, and said: "No problem, I will ask the little eunuch to send some jars of wine to Lord Lin later."

"Well, Wang Gonggong, I'm afraid these jars of wine are not enough." Lin Feng said with some embarrassment.This time, I was aiming at the idea of ​​emptying the inventory of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

"I don't know how much Lord Lin wants?" the prince asked openly.If the amount is not large, he can sell Lin Feng's favor.However, if the amount is too large, there is nothing he can do about it. It is almost the end of the new year, and various banquets of the imperial court are indispensable, and this kind of royal wine will be served at the banquets.

"I want all the royal wine from the House of Internal Affairs." Lin Feng said.Although he also knew that this was really not good, but he couldn't help it.Who made him boast in the first place?Now I can only bite the bullet and cash in.

"My Lord Lin, do you know that the Chinese New Year is coming soon? The imperial court cannot do without alcohol. Even these hundred altars may not be enough. If you take them all away, what will happen to the banquet in the palace?" The father-in-law looked at Lin Feng and said helplessly.

Leaving from Wang Gonggong, Lin Feng had no choice but to go to the Queen Mother. At this time, only the Queen Mother can help him.

Seeing Lin Feng coming, the queen mother was also very happy.However, seeing Lin Feng was not very happy, the queen mother asked, "What's the matter with you? You don't look happy."

"I can't be happy." Lin Feng said.

"What's the matter?" asked the Queen Mother.

Walking into the Hall of Kindness and Virtue, Lin Feng recounted what he had boasted to the soldiers of the Imperial Horse Supervisor when he led the troops to fight.Then he also talked about the current difficulties.

After listening to Lin Feng's narration, the queen mother was also helpless.She knows the amount of imperial wine stored in the royal family every year.At most, there were no more than three hundred altars, and in some years, it was even less than a hundred altars.Lin Feng's boasting of such a big mouth all of a sudden made the queen mother helpless.

It is impossible to give Lin Feng all the royal wine from the House of Internal Affairs.In that case, what about the court banquet?Could it be possible to replace it with ordinary wine? Wouldn't that lose the face of the royal family?

"How about this, half of the royal wine from the House of Internal Affairs can be given to you." The queen mother said: "This year, the royal family should hold as few banquets as possible. In this way, fifty jars of royal wine should be enough."

"But, fifty jars of wine must not be enough for me?" Lin Feng said.At the beginning, he boasted so much that he let them drink their fill.This time, I only got back fifty jars of wine, so how could that be enough?
"You have to be considerate of the difficulties of the royal family. The face of the royal family must be taken into account. You can't let the royal family use ordinary drinks to hold banquets, right? This will make people laugh." The queen mother said earnestly.

Nodding his head, Lin Feng also knew what the Queen Mother meant.He also understands that the royal family also has to take face into account. "Alright then." After speaking, Lin Feng kissed the Queen Mother on the forehead, and said very seriously, "Thank you."

"We don't need this between us." The queen mother said to Lin Feng.

Nodding his head, Lin Feng said, "I know, but I still have to thank you."

"Since you want to thank me, then handle the government affairs properly for me. The Ai family can't handle it alone." The Queen Mother looked at Lin Feng and said.In the past few years, she has been under too much pressure, and she wholeheartedly hopes that the emperor can grow up as soon as possible.At that time, her stress will be relieved.

"I will try my best to help you." Lin Feng looked at the Queen Mother and said seriously.

With the queen mother's will, Wang Gonggong also readily agreed, and personally took Lin Feng to the House of Internal Affairs to receive the royal wine.

"This means that Lord Lin has such face. It would be impossible for someone else to take away a jar of royal wine from the House of Internal Affairs." Walking in Lu Shuai, Wang Gonggong said to Lin Feng.
