Chapter Ten Banquet in the Drunken Immortal Tower
Lin Qingxuan became furious when he saw Jiang Chen acting like it had nothing to do with him.
He suddenly slammed the table, and his whole body almost flew up. It seemed that this guy was really about to explode.
"I might as well tell you the truth. If you can't come up with a way to fight back, I will soon lose my share of the Lin family's property and resources."
Regarding the situation of the Lin family, Jiang Chen was somewhat aware of it.
Lin Yongshou, the father of the Lin family, has three sons. Lin Qingxuan's father is the youngest. By the time he reaches adulthood, the family's property has been almost divided between his two brothers.
The only one they got was the Zuixian Restaurant. As a result, they were often squeezed out and suppressed openly or covertly. If they couldn't save this restaurant, then their lineage would probably be completely kicked out by the Lin family in the future.
It is worth mentioning that Lin Qingxuan's father suffered a sudden stroke six months ago and is still bedridden and unable to take care of himself.
This is also why the other two branches suppressed Lin Qingxuan so unscrupulously. If you look at this guy's situation, it is indeed quite difficult.
Thinking of this, Jiang Chen patted Lin Qingxuan's shoulders hard twice and said, "Don't worry, our counterattack has already begun."
"What did you say?" Lin Qingxuan looked at Jiang Chen in confusion.
He didn't understand what Jiang Chen meant by counterattack. In the past three days, he had only seen this guy and his brother-in-law sneaking into the shabby alleys all day long.
Jiang Yuebai could obviously make money, but they refused to accept other people's money, and would not allow it to be sold in Zuixian Tower. If this continued, Lin Qingxuan would have to stand tall even if he had a good temper.
"Uncle, Tang Yong has replied to the letter, and we will set up eighteen tables at Zuixian Tower tonight!"
"Okay, let's prepare too."
The more Lin Qingxuan listened, the more confused he became. It seemed that he was planning to hold eighteen tables of banquets at Zuixian Tower, but why didn't he, the boss, know about such big news?
Later, Jiang Chen told him that it was the county prince who wanted to hold a big banquet to celebrate the birthday of his ninetieth-year-old mother. Originally, this good thing was not going to happen to Zuixianlou. It was Jiang Chen who used some tricks to finally make the county prince change his mind.
.
"You seem to have known this for a long time?"
Jiang Chen said noncommittally: "You should go back and make arrangements quickly. We can't let this good show tonight be ruined."
It was a once-in-a-lifetime good thing that the county magistrate was willing to reward him. Lin Qingxuan did not bother to inquire further and hurried directly to Zuixian Tower.
Time passed by and it was already sunset. Guests invited to the Zuixian Tower for the birthday banquet arrived one after another. They carried birthday gifts for the old lady in their hands, and soon the inside and outside of the Zuixian Tower became lively.
The county magistrate was in a very good mood. After welcoming all the guests to their seats, he invited today's birthday boy out.
The crowd flattered and flattered her again, coaxing the old lady into smiling and laughing non-stop.
When the atmosphere reached this point, it was time for the banquet to begin. The county magistrate immediately ordered people to bring out the fine wine specially prepared this time to entertain the eighteen tables of guests.
Zhao He was the most distinguished among the guests, so he naturally sat at the table of the county magistrate. What made him very unhappy today was that the old lady's birthday banquet was actually held in Zuixian Tower.
He despised Lin Qingxuan the most, not to mention that he was currently teaming up with the two young masters of the Lin family to seize all the family property of Lin Qingxuan, so he was unwilling to come to Zuixian Tower.
Besides, he always felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere today.
"I'm talking to the county magistrate, why didn't you mention the old lady's ninetieth birthday earlier? Otherwise, I would have arranged for someone to arrange it for you at the Zhaojia Winery. Isn't it more grand than this small restaurant?"
"My cook is also a good cook. He can cook all kinds of cuisines. His skills are definitely better than Zuixianlou!"
Zhao He confidently praised how good his Zhaojiazhuang was, but the county magistrate seemed a little absent-minded today. Only then did Zhao He notice that people seemed to be looking forward to something.
"Hmph, the few dishes in Zuixianlou are just like chewing wax and are not worthy of being served on the table. What is there to look forward to?"
Zhao He cursed in his heart.
However, when the waiters in the restaurant presented pots of fine wine in blue and white jade bottles, the county magistrate took the initiative to take it as if he had found a treasure.
"Good stuff, this is really good stuff!"
Holding the jug of wine in his hand, he introduced it to the guests with joy, and Zhao He's face gradually regained its joy.
"My lord, the Erdaochun from Zhaojia Winery is naturally the best wine. I am very happy to be able to congratulate the old lady on her birthday with this wine!"
Zhao He didn't even look at it, and just concluded that there must be Er Daochun in the wine pot. That was because in the past, in occasions of this size, both the guest and the host chose Er Daochun as the best, which was enough to show their status.
But today, I could clearly see the embarrassment on the county magistrate's face, and Zhao He couldn't help but murmur in his heart.
"Boss Zhao, you misunderstood. The wine our master is entertaining you with today is a wine that has been popular in the town these days, called Jiang Yuebai."
Every word of Tang Yong, the subordinate of the county magistrate, seemed to be pierced into Zhao He's heart.
"Wha...what? Jiang Yuebai?"
The corners of Zhao He's mouth twitched slightly, with embarrassment written all over his face.
The county magistrate introduced it with a smile: "Originally, I thought this wine was not worthy of its name and was just an exaggeration by ordinary people. But since I tasted it myself that day, the taste is like drinking nectar and jade dew, which makes people want to stop!"
"Everyone, come and have a few drinks with me. This fine wine can only be found in Zuixian Tower!"
On the railing on the second floor, Jiang Chen was watching all this silently.
Lin Qingxuan stood beside him, dumbfounded. He couldn't understand how Jiang Chen could do it, and actually let the county magistrate personally recommend Jiang Yuebai to these prominent officials and dignitaries.
"It's actually very simple. I gave a jar of Jiang Yuebai to Tang Yong, and then through him I made the county magistrate fall in love with this wine. Then everything will be very simple."
"These people present today are all the most prominent local figures. They will all be captured by Jiang Yuebai's delicious taste later. Are we still worried that this wine will not be sold well?"
Lin Qingxuan's eyes went from confusion to clearness, and now they are almost bursting into tears due to excitement.
I have to say that Jiang Chen’s skill is absolutely amazing!
He thought of many ways to promote Jiang Yuebai, but none of them were as simple, direct and effective as Jiang Chen's.
With the help of the county magistrate holding a banquet at Zuixianlou, he directly wiped out all the local rich and famous families. Everyone will have a taste of Jiang Yuebai, and then they will be unable to stop.
"Wait a moment!"
"What's going on with you guys? Isn't this wine made by people in the market?"
