Chapter 133 Rare Goods
Chapter 133 Rare goods
Shopkeeper Fu squinted his eyes and kept the smile on his face. Aunt Jiang didn't want to say more, so he was naturally embarrassed to continue inquiring into other people's privacy.
He had investigated Aunt Jiang before and found out that her husband was dead and had five sons. Thinking of how the young master was talking about how he wanted Aunt Jiang to be his stepmother in the carriage when he came here, his thoughts couldn't help but deviate.
.
Looking carefully, Aunt Jiang is quite pretty, but she has been working in farming all year round, so her tan is a bit rough. If she had been raised well and matched with her old employer, she would be a good match, but it is a pity... She has given birth to five children.
I don’t mind having a son or even a grandson, but my employer definitely does...
Jiang Yan's clear and deep eyes looked directly at Shopkeeper Fu without hesitation. She always felt that he was thinking about something strange, which made her feel uncomfortable. She couldn't help but continue to say: "Brother Fu, let's talk about the price."
."
"Ahem... Well, yes, yes, let's talk about the price first." Shopkeeper Fu stretched out his hand in embarrassment, his slightly clenched fists uncomfortably blocking his breath, and he was a little flustered by being caught.
The cute and fat white wine bottle has been opened, and Jiang Yan poured half of the bowl. The stopper of the first batch of bottles is a small stone kiln, which is more brittle and thin than the bottle body. It is more troublesome to seal it. If you are careless, it can be easily broken.
The stoppers were broken, so all the custom-made ones later had wooden stoppers, and they also came with a wine starter.
The pulpy red liquid was placed at the bottom of the snow-white bowl, with a faint fruity aroma permeating the air, mixed with an intoxicating aroma of wine. Shopkeeper Fu was a wine lover, and he subconsciously leaned close to the table with eager eyes.
Focus.
It’s really wine!
He twitched the tip of his nose in surprise and couldn't help but sniff it hard: "This bright and attractive color! This rich and mellow aroma of wine is indeed the wine in my impression. Sister, I wonder if brother can take a sip first?"
Jiang Yan nodded, a slight smile suddenly appeared on her face, and she handed the wine to Shopkeeper Fu: "I just poured it out for Shopkeeper Fu to try."
Shopkeeper Fu immediately picked up the bowl and took a cautious sip. The pulpy red liquid fell into his mouth and flowed between his teeth. It was a familiar taste. Many years ago, he was lucky enough to be rewarded by his boss with a few cups. Unexpectedly, he was still here.
He could drink it again, and the taste of this wine was more rich and mellow than he remembered.
People outside the door were busy with their own affairs. There were not many people in the main room, and Lao Wu happened to be there. He was also a good drinker. If his family were not poor, he would have liked to drink one or two kilograms every day.
After saving some money for a while, Ajun bought him some rice wine, but unfortunately he asked Lin Dong to finish it before he could even take a few sips.
So now that I hear about wine, I can’t help but be a little curious, especially if it’s a wine I’ve never heard of.
"Old Wu also drinks, you can come over and try it." Jiang Yan poured another half bowl for Old Wu, and poured a smaller half bowl for herself and took a few sips. The taste was much better than she expected.
The wine was made according to the sophisticated formula of the mall. The taste was similar to the wine she bought before, but the time was not long enough. If it could be kept for a while, the taste would be more fragrant. The product produced by the mall is indeed a high-quality product.
Old Wu carefully took the big bowl, his cold face could not hide his excitement. He heard everything shopkeeper Fu said just now. This wine is very expensive. Only the emperor, relatives, high officials and rich people can afford to drink it.
The half bowl he had was almost half a catty, which was more than what Shopkeeper Fu had.
He took a careful sip. The moment he took his mouth, his whole body froze, and his pupils widened in surprise. This taste was indeed rare, and it was an indescribable feeling, but he could clearly feel the mellow aroma, whether it was the color or the
It tasted much better than the wine he drank before.
"Sister, how much of this wine do you still have in stock? How much have you brewed? Are they all packed in small wine bottles like this? I want them all!"
After a while, shopkeeper Fu said hurriedly. He suppressed the surprise and joy in his heart and became more and more enthusiastic about Aunt Jiang. The previous Dafu recipe had at least tripled the income of each branch of his Chang'an Restaurant. This time
Several of his businesses, especially the soap and wine, will definitely make the Shangguan family shine in the imperial city. Maybe they can successfully join the ranks of the imperial merchants this year, and I will definitely become the number one among all the shopkeepers!
At this moment, the way he looked at Jiang Yan was no longer just a partner, but a walking big gold ingot, his future and his hope!
"The one I have is the size of one pound. There are forty jars in total. No, there are only thirty-nine jars. Now I drink one jar, and then there are one hundred jars of five kilograms."
Jiang Yan calculated in her mind that the first batch could be drunk long ago, and the subsequent batches were made one after another, using five-jin or ten-jin bottles. The amount that can be drunk is only about a hundred bottles. Take a whole
Pay to the shopkeeper.
"No problem, I want them all. If there are any more in the future, you can just ship them to me at Chang'an Restaurant, or you can notify me and I will send someone to transport them myself."
Shopkeeper Fu didn't blink and collected them all. Jiang Yan smiled and said, "I wonder how much money shopkeeper Fu plans to pay?"
Jiang Yan also inquired about the price of wine in the town. A bucket of rice wine is about two kilograms, which is four kilograms, and costs eight taels of silver. Moreover, the wine has a light taste and low alcohol content. Wine itself is a luxury in this era, and she also feels
I don’t know how much I can charge for this wine, but it will never be lower than rice wine.
"Wine is indeed precious, and you package it in a predetermined quantity. Let's buy it by the pound. One pound counts as five taels of silver. Girl, do you think it's feasible?"
Shopkeeper Fu said with a bit of flattery on his face that the price was neither high nor low. It was high compared to ordinary wine, but for wine, the price was low. The one he drank in his early years cost about fifteen taels a pound.
, and it has a price but no market!
However, there is no way to sell it at this price in Yong'an Town. He has to transport it to various places, and the cost is not low, so he can only try his best to lower it at the source.
Jiang Yan frowned slightly and weighed it in her mind. Looking at shopkeeper Fu's somewhat guilty expression, she guessed that the price could be raised, but she didn't plan to increase the price when she thought that the other party would have to transport it to various places. After all, it was five taels.
The price of silver was already higher than she expected.
"Okay, then let's set the price now. If it's convenient for you today, the wine can be shipped away." She raised her eyes and looked at Lin Bei: "Xiao Si, go get pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and let shopkeeper Fu write the contract."
"!!!"
Not only Lin Bei, everyone present was stunned. Lao Wu even blushed and choked on the wine in his mouth. He tried his best to suppress himself from coughing up, fearing that the wine in his mouth would accidentally spill out.
