Lin Shu waited in Jiang Zuo Alliance for another two days. In these two days, Lin Shu had distilled all the wine that he had purchased. Then, he blended them and stored them in wine jars. This time, Lin Shu had mixed nearly ten kinds of peerless wine according to different flavors.
The best one was made from one of the top ten famous wines, Fenjiu. This wine was soft and long to drink. The fragrance of the wine was clear and not pungent. It had the fragrance of apricot flowers. The original liquid before the retortion was the best Fenjiu for twenty years. It was also the most expensive one among them.
Fen wine had been popular since the Northern and Southern Dynasties. It was even conferred the title of imperial wine by the Northern Qi Emperor during the Northern and Southern Dynasties. However, the Fen wine of this period was still yellow wine, but it was already a famous wine. It was not cheap. The price of a large jar of Fen wine was equivalent to dozens of other wines.
After the Fen wine was mixed, only Lin Shu tasted a little. Then, he sealed that little wine so that those boorish people would not ruin it. At that time, it would be Lin Shu's trump card in negotiating business with the old pavilion master.
In the past two days, the people Uncle Mei had hired for Lin Shu had also expired, and more than ten shops had been cleaned up.
Lin Shu picked out three of the best and largest places in the three most prosperous towns and asked people to hurry up and prepare to rebuild them into restaurants. He even specially drew the design of the restaurants for his subordinates. The other places would be transformed into wineries. When the time came, they would only sell wine.
After everything was settled, Lin Chen and the old pavilion master were about to arrive. Lin Shu specially found a courtyard with beautiful scenery and clouds in the Jiang Zuo League and tidied it up.
After Lin Shu decorated the courtyard, the surroundings were filled with smoke. There were a few peach trees planted in the courtyard, and the flowers were scattered in the garden. There was a round stone table in the middle, surrounded by round stone stools. The air was fresh and the scenery was pleasant. Lin Shu was prepared to entertain Lin Chen and his son here.
On this day, the old pavilion master brought Lin Chen along with many servants and guards. They pulled a few large carts filled with wooden crates and arrived at the Jiangzuo Alliance.
Lin Shu and Sect Leader Mei came out to welcome them personally, followed by a few of the Crimson Flame's old generals and a few elders of the Jiang Zuo Alliance.
Both parties greeted each other and introduced themselves to each other. After some formalities, Lin Shu and Sect Master Mei led the old Pavilion Master and Lin Chen to the courtyard.
Before leaving, Lin Shu sent someone to settle down the people who came with the old pavilion master. They had prepared wine and dishes. Lin Shu guessed that the carriage was probably filled with silver, so she specially ordered people to watch over it.
Lin Shu and Sect Master Mei brought the old Pavilion Master and Lin Chen to the courtyard that Lin Shu had decorated. Lin Chen and the old Pavilion Master looked around the courtyard and Lin Chen said emotionally,"Brother Lin, this is the courtyard that you decorated, right? It's just a simple decoration with some common things, but when put together, it's really a pleasant scenery. A carefree and free intent surged within, causing people to unconsciously calm down and feel their entire body relax.”
"Yes, it's not bad." The old pavilion master nodded in satisfaction.
When Sect Master Mei heard the praises of the two, she was even happier than Lin Shu. She said proudly,"Yes, that's right. Xiao Shu is much stronger than us rough people. She has read books and knows a lot. She casually decorated it and created such a beautiful scenery. We are all very impressed.”
Lin Shu was dressed in a long white robe. Her long hair was tied up with a navy blue scarf. She smiled and said,"Thank you for your praise, everyone. Changsu is ashamed to accept it. Let's take a seat. This time, there are many fine wines for you to taste.”
After Lin Chen heard Lin Shu's words, he was immediately attracted. Then, he said excitedly,"That's right. Father, Sect Master Mei, let's take a seat. I really want to see the peerless wine that Brother Lin mentioned in his letter.”
The old Pavilion Master asked Sect Master Mei curiously,""That's right. I was also very curious when I heard the fine wine that Xiao Shu described in her letter. I wonder if Sect Master Mei has drunk it? How is it?"
Sect Master Mei recalled the embarrassed look on her face when she drank too much a few days ago. Her old face blushed slightly as she said,"Yes, I drank a little. It was indeed a peerless wine, and it was very strong. I was a little greedy and was drunk for more than a day. It was really unbearable to look back.”
The old pavilion master and Lin Chen were even more curious after hearing Sect Master Mei's words. Sect Master Mei wanted to ask more but was stopped by Lin Shu,""Old Pavilion Master, Brother Lin, take a seat. You'll be able to taste it soon.”
The old pavilion master did not ask further after hearing that. He followed Lin Shu and Sect Master Mei to sit on the stone bench in front of the round stone table in the courtyard. Lin Chen looked at the round stone table and stone bench with curiosity. This was because during this period, people used short tables to eat. People also directly sat cross-legged or kneeling on the couch on the ground. The tables and chairs had not yet been set up.
Lin Chen wanted to ask out of curiosity, but he was stopped by the old pavilion master. Then, he quieted down and waited for Lin Shu's orders to serve the dishes.
Lin Shu waved at Li Gang, who was accompanying her in the courtyard, indicating that the dishes could be served. Li Gang nodded and then ordered someone to bring the dishes to the back.
His subordinates carried a tray with many white porcelain flasks and walked over one by one. At this moment, Li Gang walked in with a small yellow wooden tray. In the middle of the tray were four medium-sized white jade plates. In the plates were some round things. They were only slightly larger than soybeans and were light red in color. There seemed to be as many as a hundred of them.
Li Gang placed a plate in front of each of them. Lin Chen looked curiously at the items in the white jade butterfly. Then, he looked at the servants in surprise to see if there was anything else. Finally, he said in surprise,"Brother Lin? This... These were peanuts? Is there only one dish to go with the wine?"
Lin Shu smiled faintly and said,"Yes, this is it."”
Lin Shu spoke righteously as if it was a matter of course.
Lin Chen was furious when he heard that. They invited us here to taste good wine this time, but they invited us to eat peanuts with the wine?？! You, you're treating the village chief as a cadre too much.
Lin Shu saw Lin Chen's expression and smiled calmly.""This time, I sincerely invited the old pavilion master and Brother Lin to come and taste the wine. This is definitely the best dish to go with the wine.”
The old pavilion master was curious after hearing Lin Shu's affirmation. He said to Lin Shu,"That's why. I'm willing to hear the details. Please tell us about it, Little Shu.”
Lin Shu glanced at the other three people's surprised and puzzled faces and waved at Li Gang.
