Zhao Jun followed Pan Daning to inspect the winery.
Meng Yi sat in the yard feeling depressed.
It would be better not to know. He doesn't have time to wait for two months.
Alas, I don’t know when I will be able to drink this wine next time.
Xiao He sat aside and watched Meng Yi sighing.
He shook his head, walked up to the other person and patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't sigh, there might be some unexpected things."
After that he left.
"Wait, what do you mean?"
Meng Yi chased after him with a confused look on his face.
Xiao He didn't know the details either, it was just a guess based on his understanding of Zhao Jun.
The inspection of the winery was over quickly.
No problem, all done well.
Night fell quickly and several people gathered at the county government office to prepare for dinner.
"Thank you for your hard work, Madam. I'm going to trouble you again these two days."
Zhao Jun sat at the table and spoke politely to Xiuniang.
Across from her, Xiao He and Meng Yi were still discussing a novel.
"It's not hard, it's not hard, you can eat and talk at the same time."
Xiuniang brought out the last dish, and everyone prepared to eat.
"Meng Yi, you must try it. Madam Pan's cooking is very good. This is authentic Ba County cuisine that you can't get anywhere else."
Zhao Jun was the first to pick up a piece of salted fish.
This dish is her favorite.
Upon hearing this, Meng Yi picked up his chopsticks and started tasting it impatiently.
"Yeah, it's really delicious. The chili and pepper flavor is so delicious."
Meng Yi couldn't help but admire.
Zhao Jun glanced at him and then glanced at Pan Daning silently.
"Oh, what a pity, there are good food but no good wine."
She sighed deliberately with regret.
Meng Yi on the opposite side nodded vigorously in agreement.
Xiao He lowered his head, pursed his lips and smiled.
Pan Daning felt a little regretful after hearing her say this, but.
Seeing his expression, Zhao Jun continued.
"It's a shame we have to wait two months for the wine from the winery. Do you think anyone bought some wine last time and didn't finish it?"
"Yes, Magistrate Pan."
Zhao Jun tilted his head and looked at him.
Pan Daning immediately understood that Zhao Jun did it on purpose.
But Pan Daning is a man who can't help but get excited, and he is not that stingy.
"Oh well, I still have two bottles here. I originally prepared them for myself to drink."
"But since the adults are here, of course I have to take it out."
Anyway, he will have to drink the wine produced by the winery in the future, so it’s no big deal to take it out this time.
"Really? That's great! County Magistrate Pan, you are such an open-minded person."
Meng Yi was extremely excited. He had to try it because he thought he would never be able to drink it again.
After a while, Pan Daning came over with two wine jugs.
Both bottles are brand new and unopened.
"Hey, wait a minute."
Zhao Jun suddenly stopped Pan Daning's hand from opening the wine jug.
"What's wrong?"
Several people around looked at her.
"Well, I think it's enough for a few of us to open a bottle of wine and taste it."
"Don't drink too much, otherwise it's bad for your health."
Zhao Jun said seriously.
Several people were stunned.
"But sir, there are several of us here. Isn't one bottle a bit too little? This is not a large amount."
Pan Daning weighed the bottle and gestured.
"Sir, what about the other bottle..."
Xiao He sat aside without looking up, just asking.
He had already seen that Zhao Jun wanted to keep a bottle, but he just didn't know why.
"Ahem, Magistrate Pan, I'll buy the other bottle of wine."
"Meng Yi, bring this to the king when you return to Xianyang."
She originally thought that it would take at least a few months until the waterway was open before things could be sent to Xianyang.
But now that Meng Yi is here, he will go back to Xianyang directly in a few days.
Then it would be fine if we ask him to take it with him.
"Ah? You won't let me drink it, but you want me to bring it back to the king from a thousand miles away?"
Meng Yi didn't know what to say.
"What? For the king, sir, wait a moment while I find a sturdier package."
Pan Daning's reaction was completely different. He was excited.
Later, under the ruthless suppression of Zhao Jun, Meng Yi of course decided to take it along.
"Think about it, the king knows everything about the winery. You came here and drank some wine yourself, but you didn't tell the king about it."
"When you return and the king asks about it, he will definitely blame you. I'm doing this for your own good."
Zhao Jun said seriously.
Meng Yi nodded and felt that it made some sense.
Xiao He was indifferent to the matter but saw through everything.
Meng Yi finally tasted another bottle of wine, and the taste made him linger.
I almost couldn't resist opening the other bottle.
The few of them made a fuss until late at night. Meng Yi couldn't drink much, so he felt sleepy early and went back to rest.
The next day, Meng Yi slept until noon.
Zhao Jun and Xiao He had already finished their breakfast and were sitting in the yard.
"Good morning, you two! That wine is quite strong. I actually slept until now."
Meng Yi yawned and took a breath of the fresh mountain air, feeling particularly comfortable.
"Okay, Lord Pan and I still have something to discuss. Xiao He, take him around the county."
After saying that, she walked out.
"Master Zhao, you are here. We agreed last night that we should go check out the ship now."
Pan Daning was very excited. He had been looking forward to it since early morning.
The two men came to the bank of Changyuan River. The big ship was still parked steadily beside it, and many passers-by were watching.
Pan Daning's eyes lit up. Zhao Jun glanced at him and took people up to have a look.
