Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye it was the 20th.
The day Xu Damao got married.
Early in the morning, Xu Damao came to the central courtyard in high spirits, intending to wake up Jia Dongsheng. He couldn't let Jia Dongsheng sleep in and delay his important business.
"Hey, Dongsheng, are you up?"
As soon as he arrived at the middle courtyard, he found Banggeng doing horse stance with sweat all over his forehead. He didn't know what was so good about it. He heard that Banggeng had been doing horse stance every day these days and it seemed that the child was so tired that he looked stupid.
"I got up early and it's too late to do anything waiting for you to call me." Jia Dongsheng was gathering his strength for Xu Damao's wedding banquet. He lay in the grand chair and swayed slowly.
"Hey, today I'm giving my roasted whole lamb to you, Dongsheng, you can't mess it up."
Xu Damao didn't care much about what Jia Dongsheng said, but said with a smile.
"Don't worry, the roasted whole lamb I make must leave everyone speechless."
Jia Dongsheng said confidently, "You can't get a camel, otherwise I would make you a roasted whole camel. That would be amazing."
"Roasted camel?"
Xu Damao was stunned and asked in disbelief, "Is that thing delicious?"
“I have no experience.”
Rolling his eyes at Xu Damao, Jia Dongsheng said unhappily, "Do you know that there are eight delicacies in the world?"
"Eight Treasures?"
This question was beyond Xu Damao's knowledge, but he was very interested in this topic. He felt that if he could understand it, when the factory leaders asked him to drink with them in the future, wouldn't he have something to brag about?
"Dongsheng, what are the Eight Treasures?"
"Haha, you won't understand even if I tell you too much. You just need to know that camel is one of the Eight Delicacies. You don't need to know anything else."
"No, Dongsheng, tell me, I'm really interested in this."
His curiosity was piqued, so how could Xu Damao suppress it?
"Haha, you want to know?"
"Of course I do."
"If you want to, where's my wine?"
Jia Dongsheng said dissatisfiedly: "Didn't we agree that you would get me a few bottles of good wine? Did you forget?"
"Oh, I really forgot."
Xu Damao slapped his forehead, as if he suddenly understood something, and said with a smile: "But Dongsheng, don't be angry. I didn't forget to make it for you, but I forgot to send it to you."
"Wait, I'll go back and get it for you."
As he said that, he ran to the backyard. Jia Dongsheng smiled and shook his head: "Huh, who would believe you?"
"Uncle, how long will it take?" Banggeng felt his legs begin to tremble.
"It's early, stand still."
Jia Dongsheng didn't pay attention to the joke, he just said something casually and continued to rock in his old chair, looking so comfortable.
Not long after, Xu Damao ran back with three separate wine boxes in his hands, which looked very high-end.
"Xu Damao, what are you doing? You're so sneaky."
Suddenly, a loud shout rang out in the yard. Bang Geng's already trembling legs became weak with fright and he sat down on the ground, staring at Jia Dongsheng stupidly, fearing that Jia Dongsheng would be angry and punish him.
These days, he had to sit on the ground more than once because of weak legs, and the punishment given to him by his second uncle really made Banggeng very painful, so he was a little scared and frightened.
"Bang Geng, get back into horse stance for an hour."
"One, an, an hour?"
Bang Geng's eyes almost popped out. He had just been doing the tattoo for an hour, and now he had to start all over again?
However, Banggeng didn't dare to say no, for he was afraid that if he objected, the punishment would be even more severe.
Compared to Bang Geng's miserable condition, Xu Damao was not much better off. He was holding the wine box and was still thinking about what the Eight Treasures contained. Who knew that such a shout would suddenly come out, and it was directed at him. How could Xu Damao not be scared?
The wine box in his hand flew out and fell heavily to the ground.
"Sha Zhu, you scared me to death." Xu Damao didn't care about feeling sorry for him and immediately yelled at Sha Zhu.
"Who are you calling Laozi? Are you getting married today and want to get hurt?"
Sha Zhu showed his sandbag-sized fist to Xu Damao and punched him twice fiercely.
"I am a cultured person and I won't bother with a barbarian like you."
Xu Damao saw the fist and swallowed his saliva. He had been close to this fist countless times before and knew its power. He retorted timidly, then went to the wine box that had fallen to the ground and examined it carefully.
"Fortunately, it was protected by the wine box and not damaged."
After his worries subsided, Xu Damao said to Sha Zhu, "Sha Zhu, you're lucky. If this wine had been broken, I would have made you bankrupt."
"Who are you trying to scare? A bottle of shabby wine only costs about twenty yuan at most. Who's going to go bankrupt?"
Sha Zhu curled his lips fiercely at Xu Damao's exaggerated words and didn't believe it at all.
"Hmph, Shazhu, let's look at your limited knowledge. Do you know what good wine is?" Xu Damao said disdainfully.
"Master Zhu has drunk at least a thousand bottles of wine, if not ten thousand. What good wine has he not tried?"
Sha Zhu said forcefully, "That Maotai sold out there is only sixteen dollars a bottle. Even if this is Maotai, how can it bankrupt me?"
"Looking at your ignorant look, you only know about Moutai, right?"
Xu Damao looked down on it: "Look carefully, a Bamboo Leaf Green Snake, a twenty-year-old Bamboo Leaf Green Snake, have you ever seen one?"
"How old is the Bamboo Leaf Green?"
Before Sha Zhu could react, Jia Dongsheng jumped up from the chair, walked over quickly, snatched the wine box from Xu Damao's hand, and examined it carefully.
Of course Jia Dongsheng knew about the Bamboo Leaf Green wine, but he had never seen a twenty-year-old Bamboo Leaf Green in his previous life.
There is actually a story behind this wine.
What's the story?
Isn’t there a saying in later generations that Moutai was promoted as the national liquor? But in fact, Bamboo Leaf Green is the real first generation national liquor.
The drink served at the founding banquet was Bamboo Leaf Green. Is this a big deal?
For the sake of Bamboo Leaf Green, before the founding of the People's Republic of China, the army specially liberated the place where Bamboo Leaf Green was produced, so that they could drink Bamboo Leaf Green at the state banquet. Isn't that impressive?
Therefore, Jia Dongsheng can be said to be very interested in Bamboo Leaf Green Tea, especially the twenty-year-old Bamboo Leaf Green Tea.
Ignoring Sha Zhu and Xu Damao who were still arguing, Jia Dongsheng checked the three bottles of wine one by one, feeling extremely happy.
The wine Xu Damao brought out this time was indeed good wine, and it was worth his leave to help him prepare the wedding banquet.
Twenty-year-old Bamboo Leaf Green, fifteen-year-old Wuliangye, and a bottle of seventeen-year-old Lai Mao are all high-quality wines that are in short supply.
"Could it be that Lou Xiao'e emptied his father's wine cellar?"
This was purely a joke from Jia Dongsheng. That rich man probably couldn't even afford three hundred bottles of wine, let alone three.
