"Haha, you are famous all over the world, I don't dare to accept this." Gong Baizhen turned his eyes to Li Luo who was holding the altar table. Fan Wenzhao turned around and called out with great discernment, "Li Shuimu, come here and see Gong Da
Pay homage."
Li Luo turned a blind eye to the envious looks around him and walked out slowly. Just as he was about to raise his hand, he saw Gong Baizhen bowing first and said with a sincere face: "Thank you just now."
This strange behavior made everyone in the scene a little surprised. Bai Yutang and Mrs. Dai also came over. Bai Yutang had a strange look on his face, and Mrs. Dai was also curious. Could it be that Gong Da Chaofeng wanted to take this person into the bow?
Well, there is no need for such politeness as a corporal, he is just a dock porter, so why should he be so polite?
Li Luo returned the salute. He originally planned not to say anything, but after thinking about it, he added: "It's a matter of duty."
"It's a good thing." Gong Baizhen laughed loudly, her expression and appearance were those of Li Luo's peers, without any arrogance. Others thought that this great minister of the Gong family was free and easy-going, even Bai Yutang and Mrs. Dai
They were all a little surprised. Gong Baizhen really didn't like to put on airs, but saying she was approachable seemed a bit exaggerated. Is there really something special about this footman in white clothes? Madam Dai looked at Li Luo up and down with her beautiful eyes.
Although it was affectionate, it was very presumptuous. Gong Baizhen hissed, quickly changed the topic, and said casually, "This time I sent tribute wine to Kyoto, and there were twists and turns on the way. There were no dangers, but it can be called
A good story. In the future, when this tribute wine has a name, if the Holy Spirit is merciful and allows the three of us to build it again, we will have to think of another name. I don’t know if your honor is a good wine, but do you have any words to suit the good occasion? "
Speaking of which, I have to talk about the rules of Dagan's tribute. If it is an object that existed earlier, after the tribute was announced, it was escorted to Zhuocheng by a state family or the government. What was its original name and what is its name now?
If the emperor gets interested, it is not impossible to choose some elegant name, but the original name has been spread for a long time, and the name that the world knows is still the earlier name. At most, the name given by the emperor is put in the front.
And some tributes were made under the supervision of orders. Such objects should not be given random names. The Hanlin Academy or someone else must have drafted the names, and the Long Live Lord would have marked them with a red pen, and then handed them over to the Shaofu Secretary for inclusion in the register.
, don’t dare to be careless, if anyone chooses a name randomly, it will lose his head. However, there are also people who supervise the work first and then name it, such as the tribute wine brewed by the three Baigongchi families this time. Emperor Wanlong did not know the wine.
Because of the taste, I didn’t give it a name. I had to wait until I tasted it before naming it, so now this fine wine is still unknown.
Some tributes are not allowed to be sold outside except the royal family, and those who disobey the order will be killed. Some tributes are allowed to be sold to others besides the royal family, but the best quality must be given to the royal family. If not, then that is
A decisive end. As for whether it can be sold out, it depends on Emperor Wanlong's mood and whether this company can open up the relationship between the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Shaofu Department. If it can bribe the people around Emperor Wanlong, a few kind words
, in the future, if there is a title of tribute, it will be higher than others when it is presented. The price will certainly not be low, but there is one thing. This object can no longer bear the name approved by the emperor, and has to be given another name. After all, it is used in the palace.
It is not something that ordinary people can dare to use. Even if it is to hide their ears and steal the bell, they have to be separated. This is why Gong Baizhen asked Li Luo the name of this wine.
Although it is a little early to ask this question, the Dashan family naturally has the courage of the Dashan family. They sent a lot of tribute wine to Zhuocheng, and even the Bai family in Qingzhou can sell it to outsiders. It is not too difficult to smooth things over.
The words were spoken casually, but the obedient ones did not think so. Bai Yutang and Mrs. Dai were both surprised. Naming a new wine is no small matter. This tedious process is probably more complicated than the one in front of me. If this jar of wine is sold in the future, it will be taken.
Even if the name is not mentioned, the heads of the three families must nod. Gong Baizhen is not a young boy who has just fledged. He knows the stakes clearly. How can he ask a pawn at a ferry?
Li Luo didn't say anything, still looking taciturn. Gong Baizhen laughed, but didn't force it, and asked, "I wonder if the young hero likes drinking?"
Li Luo snorted: "I didn't like it before, but now I quite like it."
Gong Baizhen nodded and shouted to a member of the Gong family next to him: "Get on the boat and get a jar of golden waves." The man responded and hurriedly got on the boat. Gong Baizhen turned to look at Bai Yutang and said harmoniously, "Yutang
My dear nephew, I shamelessly ask for a jar of your Bai family’s Baidu.”
Bai Yutang laughed loudly and said with a smile: "Uncle Gong is joking. There is no way I can't ask for it. I should thank Brother Li."
Gong Baizhen nodded. Seeing that Mrs. Dai hadn't spoken yet, Mrs. Dai smiled and said, "Chi family Daigo, you don't need to tell me, I'll bring you here."
Others looked at it with surprised expressions, wondering why the Third Family would treat a mere pawn so politely. If it was just a thank you, there would be no need to be so solemn about it. Some people were envious, some were envious, and naturally there were also people who admired the Third Family.
His demeanor is not arrogant at all. Sure enough, this big three family is the big three family, and it is not unreasonable to be the first in Huzhang Prefecture.
The wine came and Gong Baizhen gave it to her. She said nothing more and had no intention of soliciting. She bowed her hands and left before boarding the ship. Mrs. Dai secretly clicked her tongue, did she guess wrong? Forget it, let’s not think about it for the time being.
I have never been a stingy person. Although three jars of fine wine are valuable, they are not even a drop in the bucket. But then again, for these ferry porters who are trying to make a living, wouldn't it be most appropriate to give them some money?
Li Luo stared blankly at the three jars of wine on the ground. Li Luo did not deliberately disguise himself. Gong Baizhen should have recognized him. When he went north to Caohai, when he passed by the wine cup, there were state officials and family members who greeted Dagan.
Among the envoys was Gong Baizhen, but with Gong Baizhen's qualifications and status, he could not reach Li Luo's side. He had only seen them from a distance, only three or two years apart, but he still remembered them.
"Senior, stay here." Li Luo exhaled lightly and called out in a loud voice.
Gong Baizhen was startled, stopped and looked back, and said to Yan, "Young hero, do you have any advice?"
"I don't want to take it as advice. It's just that I have been studying for a few years, and I am lucky enough to be able to write a few words. My senior gave me a generous gift, and I can't repay it. If my senior doesn't dislike it, I can write a couplet."
Gong Baizhen was stunned for a moment, and the corners of his eyes trembled. Mrs. Dai saw it clearly. Although Gong Baizhen quickly regained her composure, this strangeness did not escape her eyes. Who is he? Can Gong Baizhen be like this?
