Chapter 24 Liquor and vegetable cellar(1/4)
There was a stove next to the door, and a kettle sat on the stove.
Next to the stove is a horse stool. The thing is spread out in an "x" shape and is folded in an "i" shape.
It is easy to carry, and it doesn't take up much space when you sit down.
For old men who love to take a walk, the horse stool is easy to use.
There were piles of sweet potatoes next to the stool. They were washed cleanly, but a few of them were broken.
But I still couldn't bear to lose it.
It is obvious that Guan Bao, a man of Qing Dynasty who owns a five-entrance courtyard,
Life is not very good.
Lin Fang suspected that his usual food was not as good as Qin Huairu's family.
Some of them went there were Guan Bao’s beds, and there was no kang.
It's just a shelf bed, and the bed is a good thing.
Hollow carving, the bed board at the head of the bed carved with the two immortals of harmony,
The three heavenly officials of Fu, Green and Longevity are carved at the end of the bed, and the dragons and phoenixes are entangled on both sides.
It was just that Lin Fang felt a little sorry for letting Guan Bao fall asleep.
Wait for Lin Fang to help arrange the fried eggs, a small plate of pickles, and a plate of peanuts.
Guan Bao brought out a bottle of wine from the inner room.
This wine bottle has a thin neck and a fat belly, which is different from other wine packaging on the market today.
There is a trademark on the neck and belly, with the words "Fenjiu" written on it.
"Wow!"
Lin Fang took Fenjiu from Guan Bao and said, "Master Guan, we two drink such good wine? These are the four famous wines!"
"What four famous wines!"
Guan Bao was a little dissatisfied and corrected: "This is the first wine. Men only drink the best ones!"
Lin Fang now understood why Guan Bao lived so in a difficult situation.
If you only drink Fenjiu when you drink, you will be able to live a better life!
The four famous wines originated from the first National Evaluation Conference in 2012.
This national-level wine review event has been unprecedented in scale, and a total of 8 national famous wines were selected.
Among them, liquor accounts for four exclusive seats, namely Fenjiu, Moutai, Luzhou Daqu and Xifeng Liquor.
That is the so-called four famous wines.
The second wine review party will take until 63 years later, when there was a saying that the eight famous liquors were mentioned.
Among the four famous wines, Fenjiu and Luzhou Daqu are the fragrance type, Maotai is the sauce-flavored type, and Xifeng wine is the fragrance type,
The phoenix fragrance is relatively niche, and many people say they are not used to drinking the sauce fragrance.
As a representative of the fragrance type, Fenjiu is also a wine for state banquets at the founding ceremony.
Naturally, it became the most popular representative of liquor among the people.
Unfortunately, in 52, Fenjiu Factory's production capacity was too small.
Even if it was expanded once in 1951, the annual production capacity is still only 300 tons.
After Fenjiu became the four famous liquors, it became famous throughout the country, but its production capacity was limited.
It is far from meeting the market demand that the general public desires to taste.
Therefore, in 1956, Fenjiu Factory was expanded again, and finally reached an annual production capacity of 2,000 tons last year.
This also made Fenjiu Factory the largest liquor factory in the country.
In this year, if you can bring two bottles of Fenjiu to ask for help,
That's not the ordinary one with a row.
Lin Fang didn't rush to open it, turned the bottle and looked at the date.
It was read: October 1, 1952.
He couldn't bear to drink it all at once!
Fenjiu in 52 coincides with the first wine review meeting, and the factory date coincides with the National Day.
Life is so good, it would be a pity to drink it now!
Lin Fang couldn't help but say, "Master Guan, why don't we change a bottle? This is Fenjiu for 52 years, 8 years old!
Isn’t it a pity that we both drank?”
"Hehehe!"
Guan Bao smiled proudly, pulled Lin Fang to the inner room, and said, "Master, come here, come here, let's open your eyes today!"
There were some uncommonly used debris on the left hand of the inner room, boxes for clothes and bedding.
Some clothes that were usually replaced and not too late to wash were piled up in a mess.
Walking to the right, I put a screen to make it a partition.
After passing the screen, I looked at it again and saw that the good guy was stacking boxes one by one.
When I saw it, I had to have at least dozens of mouthfuls.
There are also large plastic buckets piled up next to the box, all of which can hold dozens of kilograms of water.
I don't know what's inside.
Guan Bao pointed at these boxes and said, "When the government helped me get the house back,
Those who cheated out of my property also paid some money. I thought that too much money would be a disaster.
I wanted to buy something, but I didn’t know what to buy for a while, so I just bought wine!”
Lin Fang was numb.
‘It’s all wine? Isn’t it all in the plastic bucket?’
The boxes are of uniform size, open a mouthful at will, and the bottles of Fenjiu are arranged according to the specifications of 6×8.
On the upper and lower floors, there were 98 bottles of Fenjiu in this box.
50-piece box, that's 4900 bottles!
This is not what Guan Bao has drunk over the years!
"Just Mr. Guan, you are this!"
Lin Fang couldn't help but compare his thumbs up. He had a jade space.
After so many days of harvest, there are countless rice, noodles, meat and vegetables,
I feel that I am a rich family, and compared with a ruthless person like Guan Bao,
He is a younger brother.
He said, "Yes Guan, these Fenjiu are all from 52 years old, right?"
“Not all.”
Guan Bao smiled and said, "When you have no money, you will have new ones when you have money,
If there is new, you naturally need to drink new ones."
Knowing that Guan Bao has a lot of inventory, Lin Fang no longer felt sorry for returning to the table to start drinking.
What's wrong with Chen in 8 years? As long as he is willing, throw the wine into the space and speed up.
Even the century-old Chen can easily buy it.
That is, the production date of Fenjiu on October 1, 2012 is too auspicious, which makes people feel a little reluctant to start.
Now that Lin Fang knew that Guan Bao, a big dog, had such a rich wine, he had no worries.
Open the wine casually.
As soon as the wine bottle opened, a rich fragrance leaked out instantly.
Without waiting for the alcohol to evaporate, Lin Fang quickly filled the two cups and first toast Guan Bao.
"Mr. Guan, I will respect you first!"
Lin Fang said, and drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.
When you take this mouthful, the entrance is soft and the mouth is slightly sweet.
The fragrance remains in the mouth, and the aftertaste is long and will not dissipate for a long time.
The common bitterness and spicyness of white wine are gone.
