Chapter 18 Opening Four
Early the next morning.

The Susuxiang store has not yet opened, and there is already a long queue at the door.This is all thanks to those who ate it yesterday and those who didn’t. Those who ate it showed off to everyone everywhere. Those who didn’t eat it, heard others talk about it, and smelled the aroma, came early today and lined up.

The waiters at Haochidian shop are still going back and forth between Susuxiang and Haochidian, delivering pancakes and fruits to those who are queuing; some young men instruct their servants to queue up while they sit in the Haochidian shop. Eating pancakes and fruit, drinking sweet soy milk, leisurely looking at the "one dragon" in the distance, I sighed in my heart that it is good to have money~

Everything in the shops in the west of the town is on track. The flow of people is sometimes more and sometimes less. This is normal. After all, there are only three shops in the whole street. Occasionally, some small vendors will set up stalls on the roadside. It is still not the same as those in the east of the town that have been operating for hundreds of years. The old street wants to compare.In Xia Wan's opinion, it is not a long-term solution, and the design of other shops must be accelerated.

……

"The country is based on the people, food is the first priority for the people, safety is the first priority for food, quality is the foundation for safety, and sincerity is the root of quality."Xia Wan intends to develop in catering, which has low costs and high profits, and can quickly attract customers in a short period of time.

Because Xiangrui House is one of the family's properties, opening a new large-scale restaurant in the west of the town will definitely affect the family's fortune. It will not work if there are two Xiangrui Houses not far apart in the same town. This road will not work.

Xia Wan can only plan to rent out or sell some of the unused shops, so that some traders will be willing to stay in Zhenxi and drive their relatives and friends to develop in Zhenxi. Together, they can drive the overall rapid development of Zhenxi. .

She could not make the full decision on this matter, and had to discuss it with Lu Jingzhi. The land deed of the shop was in Lu Jingzhi's name, and she and Lu Jingzhi were in a cooperative relationship, and the partners had the right to participate in the decision-making of major matters.

……

Xia Wan planned for more than a month and finally decided to open a winery first. Currently, there is only one small winery in Lingfeng Town. It has few categories and is expensive. Ordinary people will only use it on important festivals or when there are important guests.

Xia Wan wants ordinary people to be able to afford wine. What a wonderful thing wine is!

Most literary giants of the past dynasties enjoyed what was in their cups. The splendid ancient Chinese literature flourished by soaking in wine, which supported the elegance of Chinese culture.She does not ask that everyone can compose a poem after drinking, but only wants that wine can alleviate the joy, anger, sorrow and joy in most people's hearts.

And moderate drinking can also strengthen the body, relax the body and mind, relieve fatigue and stress, promote blood circulation, increase the body's metabolic rate, and contribute to cardiovascular health. New wines can also be released on a quarterly basis.

Hurry up and hurry up, the fourth shop - Wangyouju, has opened~

Xu time.

Drinkers are the beauty of heaven.

Warm a pot of wine under the moonlight and enjoy a cup of worldly joy.

Warming a pot of wine under the moonlight will eliminate a lifetime of mundane wishes.

Throughout the ages, "wine" has been an inescapable image in the writings of literati, and it is also a small blessing in the lives of ordinary people.

The three words "Wangyouju" appear free and solemn.The couplets with extremely delicate faces are hung on the door, depicting the spectacular scene of youth: "Eastern Guo cooks fish, Westerners cook crabapples, Yangzhou famous dishes, visitors are not restricted."

Breaking through the door, what came into view was a majestic calligraphy inscribed by Lu Jingzhi. Three banners were hung vertically, and they read "Luminous Cup of Grape Wine, a Prosperity, a Dream, and a Joy." All in vain."

The house was decorated with lanterns and colorful lights, making the whole building brightly lit.The windows are exceptionally bright, and the courtyard is filled with the atmosphere of an exotic place. All kinds of carefully brewed wines are displayed on the clean and smooth stone walls.The winemakers are wearing robes and busily walking through the winery.They skillfully control every aspect of brewing, from the selection of raw materials to fermentation, distillation, and aging. Every step is rigorous and delicate. The juice made from fish maw and rice wine reveals a strong flavor.

A long and melodious ditty came, "When will the bright moon come? Ask the blue sky for wine. I don't know what year it is in the palace in the sky. I want to ride the wind back, but I am afraid of the beautiful buildings and jade rooms... I turn to the Zhuge Pavilion and look down at the beautiful house..."

At night, Wangyouju lingers in the depths of the town.A few wooden chairs, a few wooden tables, and a wine flag made people remember the name of the winery - Wangyouju.

There was a lot of excitement inside Wangyou Residence, with literati and elegant scholars sitting around, chatting and laughing.On the table next to it, wine glasses are filled with all kinds of wine, which is mouth-watering; delicacies such as cookies and side dishes add to the beauty of the place.The lively scene is refreshing and refreshing.

Seeing that everyone had finished drinking, the shopkeeper came up to the stage and announced, "There are hanging couplets in Wangyouju that you can write your own poems on. If you are interested, you can come and show your skills. The top Wangyouju will be presented on the altar. Our boss brews Wuliangye himself."

The waiter agreed, "Wuliangye has a long-lasting and mellow taste, a sweet, refreshing, harmonious and just right taste. It is a new product that we will launch in Wangyouju in a few days. Those who win today can taste it in advance."

"I, I, I~I'm coming~"

"Me, me, I'll come too~" "Me, me, I...me."

"Come over, let me do it." A strong man pushed aside the people in front of him and rushed to the stage.

"I'm coming too~"

"Shopkeeper, please tell me how to compare." The big man couldn't wait to try Wuliang Wine.

"Guest sir, don't be anxious."

The shopkeeper turned to everyone on the stage and announced the rules of the competition, "Today Wangyouju is open for business. Let's write a poem about wine within one stick of incense. Write it on the paper in front of everyone on the stage. , and finally everyone voted to elect No. 1. No. 2 also received a reward, a bottle of fruit wine, No. 3 received a plate of food, and the rest have no rewards. Thank you for your support. Now, I announce that the competition has begun. !”

With the sound of gongs, the game started in full swing.

For a moment.

"I've finished writing, shopkeeper." A weak scholar wearing a light blue robe stopped the pen first.

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment. Later we will display all your works for everyone present to vote."

After a stick of incense.

"You can stop writing now."

At the same time, he winked at the boys waiting on the side. The boys immediately went up and lifted the papers on the stage for everyone to judge.

"Jiangnan Tanggou wine, the mellow aroma goes deeper and deeper into the alleys. Press the wine to encourage guests to taste it, leaving a lingering fragrance in your mouth." The first poem was written by the scholar wearing a light blue robe just now.

……

"It is rare to be free in this life. Every time I enter the pot, I believe in God. The noise in the city is false, but the news from the tongue is not true."

……

"One, two, and two ounces rinse your mouth, three, two, and four ounces are not counted as wine, five, two, and six ounces are walking on the wall, and seven, two, and eight ounces are still roaring. A pot of old wine, two cups of tea, three bowls of pig's trotters, and four plates of melon. Five, six, Seven or eight friends get together, nine points drunk and ten points dazzled."

This poem made everyone laugh when it appeared. It belonged to the big man just now.

"Hahaha~ Look at the poems he made."

"Hahaha……"

"This is no poetry."

"It's so funny, hahaha~ three bowls of pig's trotters and four plates of melon, hahaha~ what a talent."

……

"You... why are you laughing? If you have the ability, come up and do it." The laughter of the crowd made the big man lose all dignity on his face, and he hurriedly left the stage.

In the end, the scholar in the light blue robe won the first place, and Wangyouju presented a jar of Wuliangye.

Xia Wan is still trying to recreate the refreshing beer, rich red wine and lightly sweet sake. She is a little greedy.The more categories of wine there are, the more choices there are for customers to choose from, and the more customers will come to buy.
