Cheng Yaojin got some good wine, but several princes came to ask for it.
Rumors began to fly in Chang'an City the next day.
respective versions
The names of the two wines naturally began to spread.
The rumored drink recipe comes from the far west
There are also rumors that the recipe for the drink comes from a thousand-year-old ancient book.
It is also said that it is a dream entrusted by gods.
The normal ones are just for royal use.
Along with the rumors comes the production.
The annual output is less than a thousand, and most of them are used as tributes and supplied to the palace.
Only a handful have been circulated.
Nothing more than a hundred
How much specific
No one can tell clearly
Some people say ten bottles, others say 99.
Most people don't know whether it's true or not, except for Li Mingda and Murong Xue.
Cheng Yaojin didn't tell him the truth, otherwise Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde would have to empty their wine cellars.
Some people with active minds, hoping to get some benefit from it, began to ask around about which family made the wine.
There are also people who are waiting for cooperation with money.
After hearing the last news, they all closed their mouths.
The new wine specially developed by Princess Jinyang for her father, His Majesty Tian Khan Li Shimin, Emperor of the Tang Dynasty, is only for the palace and not for sale outside.
grass
However, after the efforts of Yuchi Jingde and others, His Majesty Li Shimin agreed, and Princess Jinyang agreed to let the craftsmen make more every year so that they, the princes, generals and prime ministers could drink some.
Princess special
new formula
royal use
Very few
When a bunch of words are piled on an item, its value rises rapidly. Some people say that each bottle costs more than ten coins, and you can't buy it even if you have money. It also requires you to have enough status.
What is not available is the best, which is a common problem in human psychology.
People began to squat outside Li Mingda's wine and restaurant property, and some came to the door hoping to buy something.
Naturally, these shopkeepers didn't know the situation, so they could only deal with it first, and then continue to ask questions.
Li Chen naturally knew, but he couldn't just say it and continued to let the shopkeeper below deal with it first.
Fermentation over time
Finally, on the tenth day after Cheng Yaojin’s banquet,
Li Mingda's tavern released the news
The first batch of ten bottles each of Zuimeng and Bainiang.
Bid in three days
Base price 100 Guan a bottle
The one with the highest price gets it
second batch
Uncertain time
Anyway, you missed the meaning of the rest of this batch of unknown dates.
The news exploded instantly
One hundred guan for a bottle of wine, and he bought a warehouse of food, enough to last for several years.
But naturally they cannot understand the thoughts of rich people.
Early in the morning three days later, as the market opened, several wealthy merchants from Chang'an, stewards of the Duke and ministers, and their stewards came in a hurry in carriages with money.
That posture
Some people were dumbfounded when they initially said they couldn't sell it.
What do these people do.
For such a major transaction, Li Chen naturally came to preside over the scene in person. After all, the people who came were all well-known people. Without enough status, it was natural that the factory would not be able to be controlled.
Li Chen is a serious Qian Niu Guardsman, who is equivalent to an imperial envoy when he is sent out. Besides, everyone who lives in the world knows that Li Chen manages Li Mingda's property. If he makes trouble, he will naturally not be given face. Don't think about it in the future. Better.
Li Chen looked at the people who came and greeted them one after another. They were all housekeepers of various wealthy princes and some came personally from Zici.
"Steward Cheng"
"Hello Mr. Li, I didn't expect you to be the host personally."
"I didn't expect Butler Cheng to come in person."
"No, we are just standing in front of our master."
Li Chen was doing Yahuazi, but Cheng Yaojin came in person, but he couldn't bear it: "Well, it's time for General Cheng to come, so I can be prepared." That means I have to go find our princess as soon as possible.
Butler of the Cheng family: "It's okay, the master won't stay with these people. We still have a dispute. The main reason is that our master wants to prevent some people from causing trouble based on their status."
Li Chen cupped his hands and thanked him: "Thank you very much."
"You're welcome, we're all family, aren't we?"
Li Chen: "Please come in"
Almost everyone from Cheng Yaojin's family, Yuchi Jingde's family, and Li Jing's family, who were high-ranking in the title ranking of Chang'an City, came after getting the news.
The Hou family is no exception. Although they are currently frustrated and a lean camel is bigger than a horse, the Hou family is still the Duke of the country and has not lost any of its due status.
There was only one person who remained silent in the corner. He was from the family of Li Yuanchang, the king of Han County. The visitor was just to make up the numbers. Half of the family property was confiscated by Lao Li. In addition, Li Yuanchang himself was still in the clan mansion. Naturally, it was No chance, just make up the number.
The housekeeper of the Hou family and the housekeeper of Han Wang Li Yuanchang instantly met their eyes, and both families were in the corner.
"Hello"
"Hello"
"coming"
"Make up the number, how about you?"
"We're here to take a look too."
"..."
"..."
Then I had nothing to say, I could only watch Cheng Yaojin and several other housekeepers chattering arrogantly.

envy
hatred
They could only think about it silently in their hearts.
Dangdangdang
Auction time is up
Li Chen had people beat the gongs and drums
"Everyone, the time has come. The bidding starts now. The low price is one hundred guan. There is no upper limit. However, Her Royal Highness the Princess has something to warn you in advance."
"The money in the family does not come from the strong wind. It is enough. Don't ruin the family property for some face. If you have too much money and you can't spend it all, go to help the people in need."
"In addition to the cost of this auction, Her Royal Highness the Princess said that all of it will be used to improve people's lives, and at the end of the year, Her Royal Highness will have important things to announce at the New Year's meeting."
Naturally, someone asked Li Chen below: "Master Li, what is going on?"
"We can't say it yet. You will know when the time comes."
"oh"
Li Chen: "Let's prepare for the auction now. Everyone who understands the bidding rules will naturally know it. I won't be too pretentious. The auction at the front is a complete set of five, which is one bottle each of Baijiang and Zuimeng. The starting price is 200. "Through"
"In order to prevent the loss of wine, the mouth of the bottle is sealed with beeswax, so you can store it with confidence."
Being able to store it was more valuable than buying it and drinking it. However, Li Chen's next words made them completely crazy.
"In order to prevent fraud, each bottle of wine has a number plate made of Bailian Steel as a sign of authenticity."
This is no longer just a matter of buying and selling.
when
“The auction for the first set is now starting. Is there anyone who wants the 200 pieces?”
A brief moment of silence
"200 strings"
"300 strings"
"I'll pay 400 coins"
"500 strings"
"I'll pay 600 coins"
"My Taiyuan Wang family produces 700 strings."
"My Fan Yang Lu family has 800 strings."
"The Cui family in Qinghe produced 860 strings"
"Longxi Li Family 900 Guan" by the way, he also looked down upon the Cui Family who had just quoted the price, which meant that they didn't have enough money to stand out.
The Cui family is so angry. It's not that he doesn't want to, it's mainly that the price has exceeded the authority given by his family.
A young master came in from outside: "Qinghe Cui family has 1,000 strings, how about you guys give me some face?"
"Face is not given like this. I, Chai Lingwu, bid 2,000 yuan. This first set is mine. Who of you has any meaning?"
The key players were silent, and then someone spoke from behind Chai Lingwu: "3000 strings, Duke Qiao, don't be angry."
