Zheng Qian stepped forward and said, "My sister, the master, instructed that you may take any jar and try it."
Han Mingyue nodded and then chose a jar for herself, pouring it into the wine bowl that Zheng Qian had prepared beforehand.
The wine is pink when poured out, just like the color of Gu Lili's homemade wine.
He took a bite and nodded in satisfaction.
Just as Gu Lili said, this wine does have a high alcohol content, but otherwise it's no different from the wine Gu Lili brewed.
"See? I didn't lie to you!" Gu Lili said with a smile.
Han Mingyue nodded and smiled, "Lili, this wine is really good! If Big Brother tries it, he will definitely order more!"
Gu Lili's eyes nearly crinkled with laughter after hearing this.
Fortunately, he knew that this wine deal would definitely be a success, so he simply bought 10,000 jars and stored them away, waiting to sell them to the Han family.
Zheng Qian also stepped forward at the opportune moment, cupping his hands in greeting, and said, "Our manager said that there are only 10,000 jars of wine left. Once they're sold out, they're gone. If you've taken a liking to it, you'd better place your order as soon as possible."
Han Mingyue nodded, considered it for a moment, and decided to take the three thousand jin first.
Then send someone by fast horse to deliver some to his elder brother to try, so that his elder brother can make the decision.
"Then I'll order three thousand catties first!" Han Mingyue said to Zheng Qian.
Zheng Qian stretched out his hand, and Gu Lili took out a prepared list from her bosom.
Zheng Qian took the order and checked it, then said, "Please ask this young master to arrange a time for someone to transport these three thousand catties of wine away!"
Han Mingyue looked at Gu Lili with some surprise, and Gu Lili explained with a dry laugh.
“Mingyue, you don’t know this, Uncle Cai is a very busy man. He finished talking with me this morning and immediately went to another place. I was afraid of delaying your business, so I paid the money for you in advance.”
As Gu Lili spoke, she gestured for Zheng Qian to show the list to Han Mingyue.
Han Mingyue looked at the bill; it totaled two thousand four hundred taels of silver.
Gu Lili does business with her elder brother, and she recently received two hundred taels of gold as a reward from the Emperor. Han Mingyue believes that Gu Lili can come up with that much money.
Han Mingyue looked at Gu Lili gratefully, and Gu Lili nodded back at Han Mingyue.
Han Mingyue turned to Zheng Qian and said, "I'll be bringing people to pick up the wine first thing tomorrow morning. Please leave the door open for us then!"
If I go back to Mingyue Town now, and then ask Manager Han to find a car and people, it's obviously too late to do it today.
So, coming tomorrow morning will be just about the right time.
"I'll take five jars back with me today!" Han Mingyue said to Zheng Qian with a faint smile.
I brought this today and had it delivered to the capital by fast horse so that my grandmother and others could taste this wine.
However, before Han Mingyue could even bring the wine to the capital, the city was already abuzz with rumors that the peach blossom wine was a divine elixir, and that even the current imperial concubine and the emperor were captivated by it.
This unexpected turn of events allowed the Han family to make a fortune, and Gu Lili naturally earned quite a bit as well.
Of course, that's a story for another time.
Gu Lili wanted to help Han Mingyue move the five jars of wine out, but Han Mingyue refused to let her help.
Although Gu Lili found it a bit strange, she was happy to have some peace and quiet since he wouldn't let her help.
Zheng Qian and Han Mingyue loaded the wine onto the carriage, bid farewell to the others, and then returned to the courtyard to continue guarding it.
Gu Lili watched Zheng Qian's retreating figure with admiration, inwardly praising her own judgment in choosing him.
"Lili, shall I take you back to Guzhuang first?"
Han Mingyue's words interrupted Gu Lili's thoughts and brought her back to reality.
Gu Lili smiled and waved her hand, saying, "No need, I came with Erniu and the others today, and I need to go to the market to find them later!"
I wonder how well those two are doing selling sugar figurines!
Hearing Gu Lili say this, Han Mingyue had no choice but to give up.
He looked around and, seeing that no one was there, took out his money bag.
"Lili, here is two thousand seven hundred taels. After deducting the two thousand four hundred taels you advanced for me, the remaining three hundred taels are the difference for you!" Han Mingyue took out two thousand seven hundred taels and handed them to Gu Lili.
Gu Lili just mentioned the price to Zheng Qian, which means that the price was the original price.
My elder brother also said that it cannot exceed nine hundred coins, so it should be exactly nine hundred coins, right?
Gu Lili thought that it would be a lot if Han Mingyue could give her a few dozen more taels.
After all, in his eyes, Gu Lili was just a matchmaker.
However, on second thought, Han Mingyue's family is already wealthy, so a mere three hundred taels is nothing!
Gu Lili happily accepted the money and said, "Thank you so much, Mingyue! I'll definitely come to you again if there are any good business opportunities in the future!"
Gu Lili casually put the money in her hand into her spatial storage. Three hundred taels was enough to buy the two small courtyards in front of Gu Lili. Han Mingyue was really rich!
Little did she know that Han Mingyue had originally intended to give Gu Lili fifty taels of silver as a reward.
However, ever since Han Mingyue learned that Gu Lili had a terminal illness, she has been thinking about helping Gu Lili as much as possible.
The more money she saves, the more at ease she will feel about her brothers and sisters when she passes away.
Anyway, a few hundred taels of silver really doesn't mean much to me.
After chatting for a few minutes, Gu Lili said goodbye and went to find Gu Erniu and the others.
Watching Gu Lili's departing figure, Han Mingyue sighed and jumped into the carriage.
As soon as I entered the carriage, I saw the golden gunpowder that I had given to Gu Lili last time.
He then sighed heavily and instructed Laifu to continue on his way.
Gu Lili was in a particularly good mood today because she had made money.
Plus, the doctor just gave me acupuncture, so I feel much better now.
So he wandered around, looking for Li Ershu and Gu Erniu.
As Gu Lili was strolling around, she heard a familiar voice ahead.
Looking up, I saw that the street corner was surrounded by a circle of people.
"Switch sugar figurines! Switch sugar figurines! Five coins each, and if your wish comes true, you get it for free!"
Gu Erniu's voice came from inside the circle. Gu Lili heard the voice and quickened her pace to walk over.
It took a tremendous amount of effort to squeeze through the dense crowd.
Upon entering, one could see Li Ershu drawing sugar figurines with his head down. His skillful movements revealed the anxiety he felt at home.
Gu Erniu was calling out, and people were lining up around him, waiting for Li Ershu to paint their pictures.
Gu Lili was surprised that the two of them were quite clever and had actually come up with this idea.
I simply told them that the simple spinning wheel I drew could be spun by those who came to buy it, and then they would draw it for me.
Unexpectedly, these two guys even started making "wishes," which made it even more interesting.
Just as Gu Lili was about to go find the two people, her clothes were grabbed by someone behind her.
