Chapter 2124 Tens of Thousands of Altars
"Hahahaha, thank you for your compliments. I made this wine just as a dowry for my daughter's wedding. It's only been five short years."
Li Shen burst into laughter. Who doesn't like flattery? In Li Shen's opinion, this group of people have very high emotional intelligence. Isn't this emotional value?
“Your Highness Prince Ji is too modest. It is my honor to taste such fine wine today.
His Royal Highness Prince Ji's love for the young lady has been integrated into this wine. This wine is not only a fine wine, but also the prince's beautiful vision for the young lady."
Qu Zhiping once again expressed his admiration for Li Shen.
Alas~~~ Li Shen sighed secretly, look, just say it yourself, people still need to read more books, reading can not only make people increase wisdom and broaden their horizons but also make people understand the truth and know honor and disgrace.
Look at Qu Zhiping, what a scholar says is different.
"Hahaha, Governor Qu, since you all like it so much, I will not reward you with two jars later."
Li Shen laughed heartily.
"Thank you for the reward, Your Highness Prince Ji, but since it was prepared by Your Highness for me, it must be extremely precious. How dare we take away Your Highness's love?"
Qu Zhiping said politely.
"It's okay. It's rare that Governor Qu likes it. Besides, it's not a rare item. There are tens of thousands of jars in the palace. Governor Qu can just accept it."
Li Shen was delighted and immediately waved his hand, declaring that the reward would be given.
"Several... Ten thousand jars!!!"
Qu Zhiping was so shocked that he could not express it any more. He originally thought that Prince Ji stored wine for his daughter as a dowry and there should not be much. However, he did not expect that there were tens of thousands of jars.
He really wanted to ask, are you hiding wine for your daughter or preparing stock for her?
Have you ever heard of a family storing tens of thousands of jars of wine for their daughter? Prince Ji is indeed different from others.
Just these tens of thousands of jars of wine as dowry, if they were sold they would be worth tens of thousands of strings of cash, right?
The other three were also shocked. They didn't know much about the Central Plains culture, but they were a little shocked that tens of thousands of jars of wine were prepared for their daughter.
The wine produced by Prince Ji's Mansion is also very popular here, especially in the cold winter, when ordinary people will exchange some wine from Prince Ji's Mansion.
The common people exchanged for the lowest grade wine from Prince Ji's Palace, while the leaders exchanged for mid-grade or high-grade wine.
Although this daughter’s red wine is not that strong, its quality is absolutely top-notch and must be worth a lot of money.
Li Shen saw everyone's shock and explained:
“You may not know this, but I have two daughters, and I have prepared tens of thousands of jars of wine for each of them.
This jar of wine was hidden when my eldest daughter was born. Initially, I planned to brew ten thousand jars, but the winery made too much and made tens of thousands of jars. Fortunately, I hid them all.
When it came to the second girl, I naturally could not favor one over the other, so I brewed it again according to the previous quantity, and it has been more than two years now.
I have named this wine Daughter's Red. I will start selling it after it has been stored in the cellar for ten years. All the proceeds will be left to my daughter as a dowry.
It is estimated that it can be sold for at least 100,000 strings of cash."
"One hundred thousand strings of cash?"
I really didn't expect that today, just a jar of wine would bring so much shock to them.
"His Royal Highness Prince Ji truly loves his daughter." Qu Zhiping no longer knew what words to use to describe his current mood.
Prince Ji actually hid tens of thousands of jars of wine and sold them to save up dowry for his daughter? Is Prince Ji's mansion so short of money?
"Haha, let's drink this cup together again." Li Shen picked up the glass again and said with a smile.
This is his plan to make a fortune. A good product should have a good story, and businessmen should be good at telling stories.
To put it simply, it means putting a label on the product so that you can justifiably raise the price of the product and sell it at a price that does not match the product itself.
This label can be kindness, love, or even superstition.
Nv'erhong, the fine wine specially stored by Prince Ji for his daughter, is full of a father's love for his daughter.
Li Shen is doing a PUA campaign to the outside world, with slogans like "daughter's red wine is a must when marrying a daughter", "if you love your daughter, then prepare daughter's red wine for her", "daughter's red wine is a must as a dowry" and so on.
Li Shen could even create a Daughter's Day, a festival dedicated to selling daughter's red wine, so that all fathers in the world would buy daughter's red wine for their daughters.
Li Shen was very happy when he thought of this. His father had so many daughters, so it shouldn't be too much to sell him for a higher price when the time comes, right?
Li Shen was thinking about whether he should create a son's holiday and ask his father to buy him something.
The more Li Shen thought about it, the happier he became. As he drank, the smile on his face widened, and he almost laughed out loud.
The people on the opposite side were a little puzzled. What happened to King Ji?
"Your Highness Prince Ji, may I ask what instructions you have for me this time?"
After the small talk, Qu Zhiping started to ask about the real business. They had to first find out the purpose of King Ji's visit, whether he was here to call for punishment.
Li Shen put down his wine glass, picked up a handkerchief and wiped his mouth, and the smile on his face disappeared:
"Prefect Qu, you should have received the official letter from the court, right?"
"Your Highness, I have received it for many days." Qu Zhiping replied.
"Do you know that I have been waiting for you in Xizhou City for a long time?" Li Shen looked at Qu Zhiping.
Here they come, several people secretly said in their hearts. It seems that Prince Ji is here to call for punishment.
Qu Zhiping stood up and bowed:
“Your Highness Prince Ji, please forgive me. Your Highness Prince Ji is personally in Xizhou. I should have gone to see you, but I have my own reasons.
The rebels are wreaking havoc, disturbing the local people and making their lives uneasy. I have no time to take care of other things and I really cannot get away.
Otherwise, I would not dare to neglect His Royal Highness Prince Ji like this. I hope Your Royal Highness Prince Ji will understand. "
"Yes, Your Highness Prince Ji, what Governor Qu said is true. The rebels have been launching surprise attacks on our tribe these days, and Governor Qu has been trying to stop our tribes from migrating and moving closer together.
Even so, several small tribes were ambushed and suffered heavy losses. We are willing to testify for Governor Qu."
Ma Wenlin stood up and saluted before saying.
"Yes, we are willing to testify for Governor Qu." The other two also stood up.
Several people all looked at Li Shen, but Li Shen did not say anything. He first picked up the wine glass and took a sip of wine. No one knew what Li Shen was thinking.
Just when several people were feeling anxious, Li Shen spoke up:
"Since there is a reason for this, I will not bother about it anymore."
"Thank you, Your Highness Prince Ji, for your grace." Qu Zhiping quickly bowed to express his gratitude.
The others also breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to express their gratitude.
"Supreme Governor Qu, I know you have complaints against the court..."
Before Li Shen finished speaking, Qu Zhiping stood up in panic and explained:
"Your Highness Prince Ji, we are loyal to the court, how can we have any complaints?"
(Two hours late, but that's ok.)
