Ye Zhiqiu knew the place because he had seen it while strolling around. Speaking of which, Beinei should be the closest factory to Sanlitun, because from Ye Zhiqiu's side, Beinei is closer than the brewery.
He said with a smile: "Master, Second Master, it only takes fifteen minutes to ride a bike to my house, but it takes twenty minutes to ride a bike to our brewery!
So if you want to drink, just come to my house. I have rabbits at home. People who fish nearby can also bring their fish to me, and there's plenty of Erguotou!
"Hehe, that's great! I haven't been to my little disciple's home yet!"
"Good. I know the address, but I haven't been there yet. Once I'm familiar with it, let's go to my disciple's house for a drink!"
"Then remember to call me, I've never been to my junior brother's house either!"
The four of them chatted as they returned to the fork in the road. Ye Zhiqiu waved goodbye to the three of them, turned into the fork in the road, and rode back to Sanlitun.
After getting off the bicycle at the gate, Ye Zhiqiu raised his hand to check the time. It was already 3:30 in the afternoon!
He couldn't help but sigh. Even getting married these days wasn't easy! Not to mention the wedding reception and all the other ceremonies in later generations, it would only be more tiring!
In fact, Ye Zhiqiu sometimes couldn't understand why marriage had to involve so many ceremonies, wasn't it supposed to be joyful and relaxing?
For example, He Yongjun and his three companions sang three popular songs four times today, and after drinking so much alcohol, their throats must have been sore!
Ye Zhiqiu made up his mind that when he married Feng Xiaomei in the future, he would not hold a wedding like this. At least, reading quotations from the classics and red songs would only be done once!
It’s okay for me, but given Feng Xiaomei’s personality, isn’t this making things difficult for her?
Although the gate was wide open, there was no sound from inside. Ye Zhiqiu pushed his bicycle into the yard, parked it, took his two lunch boxes, and walked into the living room. However, he only saw Wang Fugui, sleeping on the table!
He quickly put down his lunch box and called out softly, "Grandpa, Grandpa, wake up!"
Wang Fugui raised his head. It took a while for his presbyopia to adjust to the situation. He then said cheerfully, "Grandson, you're back after finishing your work!"
Ye Zhiqiu nodded and asked curiously, "Grandpa, what's going on? Why is no one at home? Are you the only one left?"
Wang Fugui rubbed his eyes and explained: "Don't worry, grandson. When they were digging wild vegetables this morning, they found a place with wild yam, so after lunch, a group of people set out with their tools.
Xiao Bailu was feeling sleepy, so I asked her to go back to her room to sleep. I had planned to let her watch the gate, but she drifted off to sleep..."
So that's how it is. Ye Zhiqiu said with a smile, "Grandpa, there's some leftover food today, so we packed some up and brought it back. Would you like to try some first?"
Wang Fugui waved his hand and said, "Well, Grandpa has a small appetite and can't eat anything right now! But it's already past three o'clock, go wake up the little girl, it's time to let her practice calligraphy!"
Ye Zhiqiu said with a smile: "Grandpa, it's the National Day holiday after all. Let my little sister sleep well and give her half a day off!"
Wang Fugui believed that handwriting reflects one's thoughts, so he had very high standards for writing! Every day, he would catch Ye Wubing and Ye Bailu to correct their mistakes in writing.
Of course, he also caught Wang Xiaolan and Ye Zhiqiu, but Ye Tianya's handwriting was recognized by Wang Fugui, so he didn't need to practice calligraphy specially!
Let’s not talk about Wang Xiaolan. She learned calligraphy from Ye Tianya, and her handwriting is indeed a bit crooked!
Ye Zhiqiu's bad thing is that his handwriting is all in the style of later generations, without any spirituality at all! That's why Wang Fugui often says that he is dull on the outside, but chaotic on the inside!
Ye Zhiqiu couldn't refute him, because he had been writing for so many years without traveling through time, and there was really no way to correct it!
Wang Fugui thought for a moment and nodded, "Forget it then. The little girl studied very hard today and indeed learned more words than usual. Let's give her half a day off!"
Ye Zhiqiu wanted to laugh secretly, because the curious Ye Bailu and the patient teaching Wang Fugui, this grandfather and grandson are really a perfect match!
One never gets impatient teaching, the other never gets bored asking questions! Ye Zhiqiu and Ye Wubing couldn't handle it, only Ye Tianya, the daughter slave, and Wang Fugui could withstand Ye Bailu's thirst for knowledge!
Don’t even mention Wang Xiaolan. As long as she doesn’t understand or doesn’t have the patience to teach her daughter, she will run away immediately without saying a word!
Ye Zhiqiu went out to the yard, put the two bags of cigarettes and alcohol back into the room, and took out the red envelope to look at it.
He gave a full two hundred and twenty yuan! According to current prices, the things Ye Zhiqiu brought would probably only be worth about one hundred and thirty yuan!
By putting the money into the space bubble, the cash deposit instantly increased from more than 700 yuan to 935 yuan!
I opened a bag and found two packs of Zhonghua cigarettes without filters, two packs of Red Peony cigarettes, and three packs of Red Panda cigarettes!
The liquor is one bottle of Moutai, two bottles of Wuliangye, and three bottles of Erguotou.
An interesting thing is that the Moutai liquor exported at that time was in a white porcelain bottle with a red ribbon, the same kind of red ribbon that was used in later generations.
The domestically sold Moutai is still bottled in earthenware bottles with wooden corks! Putting the two together creates a stark contrast!
Wuliangye still uses the second-generation bottle, which is the brown glass bottle. Wuliangye is still synonymous with multi-grain liquor!
Many people have a misunderstanding, not knowing that there was no Lotus White at that time. Lotus White was resumed in 1959 and was not put on the market until 1960.
The hardest to find these days is the Five-Star Moutai, so there's no need to elaborate! Next up is Wuliangye, followed by Fenjiu, and finally Erguotou!
In 1958, wine tickets and special wine tickets, or the newly issued Class A, B, and C tickets, were implemented. Both types of tickets were in circulation at the same time.
Special liquor tickets can only be used to buy Moutai and Wuliangye, while liquor tickets can be used to buy Erguotou and Fenjiu. As for local liquor, you don't need to be a big drinker to buy it, but the purchase is limited!
Starting next year, things will be different. As the supply of materials is further reduced, the supply of A, B, and C bills will be fully implemented! In fact, the A, B, and C bills are the difference between cadres, workers, and farmers!
Although it was cruel, the bills were divided in this way. Cadres could distribute Class A and Class B bills, workers could distribute Class B and Class C bills, and farmers in the commune could only get Class C bills.
The cruel fact is very reasonable, because no matter how good the tickets are, farmers will not buy these expensive cigarettes and alcohol!
Ye Zhiqiu opened another bag. He didn’t know who gave it to him, but inside the bag were two bottles of export-oriented Moutai and four bottles of Wuliangye!
And there was one Zhonghua cigarette with a filter and three Zhonghua cigarettes without filters!
Ye Zhiqiu was shocked. Was this from the Ma family or the He family? If he couldn't figure it out, it would be difficult for him to return the gift in the future!
But Ye Zhiqiu soon remembered that when they were chatting at that time, the Ma family loved cigarettes and alcohol a lot, and he also joked that Feng Xiaomei's family loved cigarettes and alcohol even more!
So Ye Zhiqiu understood that these were all Zhonghua cigarettes and good wine, and they must have been given by the Ma family!
