Chapter 333: Son-in-law’s Connections

As a grassroots village cadre, Wang Jianguo must have to deal with more guests than ordinary villagers, and his knowledge is much better than that of ordinary people.

Wang Jianguo knew about Moutai. Not only did he know that it was a good wine, but he had also had the opportunity to taste it on previous occasions. It was true that it was expensive and difficult to buy, but the wine was indeed good, there was no doubt about that.

Among the current domestically sold versions of Moutai, Red Star Moutai dominates the market, while Feitian Moutai is mainly exported and is almost never seen in China.

The Moutai Purple Sauce Feitian for state banquets is even rarer; it is the highest-level wine for hospitality in the country.

In the old dynasties, it would be the imperial wine.

“You…you said this Moutai is the state banquet Moutai?” Wang Jianguo asked a little excitedly.

“Yeah! Purple-chan is flying, this thing can’t be faked!”

“Did Ye Xiaojun’s brother give it to you?”

Yue Feng nodded and explained, “Yes! That’s his cousin, the nephew of Zhang Hongbin, the old leader. He is a big international fur trader.

I got some big leather and leopard skin a few days ago. After being introduced by a friend of mine from the Military Control Commission, he met me! He brought this wine when he came to my house to look at the leather! “

“Lao Zhang’s old boss is a high-ranking general! If that’s the case, it’s possible that he can get access to resources at this level!

You are really good, I was just worrying about what to do to finalize the organization of the study, but I didn’t expect you to arrange everything for me!”

As Wang Jianguo spoke, he patted Yue Feng on the shoulder, his tone full of relief and joy.

“Hey, stop taking pictures! I ate too much of the female leopard at home tonight, and I’ll vomit if I take pictures again!” Yue Feng quickly stretched out his hand to stop him.

“Are you okay?” Wang Jianguo immediately retracted his hand as if he had been electrocuted, fearing that he would really vomit because of his brother-in-law.

Yue Feng held his chest and said slowly, “Just let me take it easy! I just ate a little too much.

We were almost done eating when my mom brought over a big bowl of hand-rolled noodles. I couldn’t resist and ate another big bowl of noodles with the stewed toad sauce!”

“Xiao Na! Xiao Na? Are you asleep? Xiao Feng is here, bring some hawthorn slices and pour a glass of water!” Wang Jianguo no longer ordered his wife around, but greeted his daughter’s room.

“Ah good!”

Hearing the noise, Wang Xiaona came out of her room, wearing a floral cotton jacket that Yue Feng had made for her, and she looked very beautiful.

“Hehe, you’re not asleep? I thought you were asleep! I didn’t dare to speak loudly just now!” Yue Feng smiled when he saw his wife.

“You’re already lying down. I just put on my clothes when I heard you talking! Here, eat some hawthorn slices, and you’ll digest the food in a moment!

You are so old, but you still don’t feel hungry or full after eating! The water is hot, drink it slowly! ! “

Wang Xiaona glanced at the things Yue Feng brought for her father, and then carefully placed the cup of tea in front of Yue Feng.

“I told you not to worry, we can definitely figure it out! Is this deck of cards enough?” Yue Feng didn’t argue and said, pointing at the things he brought.

“Don’t we still have wine?” Wang Xiaona asked curiously after looking around and not finding the leopard bone wine.

Yue Feng slapped his head and said, “I forgot, I’ll get it back later! I soaked that thing in advance!!”

“What other wine do you have? Isn’t this state banquet Maotai enough? Xiaona, don’t give me orders!”

When Wang Jianguo heard his daughter mention wine, he thought she looked down upon these two bottles of top-grade Moutai.

Yue Feng explained: “It’s wine soaked with leopard bones! It’s not the same as Maotai. Xiaona and I had discussed it last time, but I forgot to bring it when I came here!”

“Where did you get the leopard bones? They are rare, even rarer than tigers!”

Wang Jianguo was already very surprised tonight, and when he heard that his son-in-law had prepared leopard bones for him, he felt even happier.

“We hunted leopards in the mountains a few days ago! Ye Jianjun came to my house. In addition to seeing the big black eagle, he also wanted to buy these two leopard skins. I sold them both, but the skinned carcasses are still stored in the cellar at home!”

“What the hell? And you shot two of them?”

The more they talked, the more information Wang Jianguo got. If he didn’t know that Yue Feng was a very steady person who never talked nonsense, if it was someone else, they would definitely think he was just bragging.

“Hehe! What luck! I’m lucky to have made it!!” Yue Feng scratched his head and saw his father-in-law’s shocked expression, which gave him great psychological satisfaction.

“That leopard bone wine is really good stuff. In addition to the portion for gifts, give me some of the rest.

When I was young, I would feel pain in my hands and feet joints when I did heavy work in bad weather. Drinking this stuff is said to have miraculous effects!

Also, your father and your Uncle Li have broken bones. For normal recovery, they will need two dog days before the injured parts will slowly get better. If they drink this leopard bone wine, the recovery period will be shortened by at least half!
You often go up the mountain. It’s hot and humid in the summer and cold and gloomy in the winter. Drinking this wine is also good for you. You may not feel it when you are young, but when you get older, those old hunters who go up the mountain all year round will have a lot of problems! This stuff is effective!” Yue Feng hadn’t said anything before hearing the popular science of his father-in-law. Wang Xiaona next to him was not happy. She frowned and said, “Dad~~~ Why are you like this! ! “

Only then did Wang Jianguo realize that he might have been a little too greedy.

In order to improve himself, the son-in-law gave him so many good things as support, but when he heard that there was leopard bone wine, he directly opened his mouth to ask for it. He didn’t have any maturity at all and didn’t care about his eating manners at all.

“Which one, ahem! You and Xiaofeng are engaged, and you will be a family from now on. Why should I be so falsely polite! What belongs to my brother-in-law is yours, and what belongs to you is mine! I am your biological father, so what’s wrong with you taking advantage of my brother-in-law!” Wang Jianguo said shamelessly.

Yue Feng also gave Wang Xiaona a reassuring look and said, “Uncle is right! Don’t worry, we still have a lot of leopard bones at home.

I know a little about using it to make wine, but I don’t really understand the specific effects.

I’ll get a few more big bottles and soak the leopard bones in them. Since they are good stuff, let’s share them! Saving anything is worse than saving a good body!”

“You two continue chatting here, I’m going back to the house!!” Wang Xiaona saw that the two of them seemed to have similar interests, so she decided not to continue to argue with them. She said hello and went back to the house.

“I’ve spoiled this kid! Xiaofeng, tell me more about your friend in the Military Control Commission, what’s going on…”

Wang Jianguo muttered something and continued to change the subject.

There was nothing wrong with talking about this kind of thing, so Yue Feng roughly explained the situation again. After learning that Wang Hu had actually been able to obtain a large amount of bill quotas from the Military Control Commission, he had a preliminary understanding of the strength of the Wang family elders.

He is definitely a leading cadre with real power. He is a tree much thicker than Zhang Hongbin.

Wang Jianguo never dreamed that after working hard at the grassroots level all his life, he only got to know Zhang Hongbin, a relatively powerful friend, because of his son-in-law.

The son-in-law, who spends his days hunting in the mountains, hawking and training dogs, has unknowingly accumulated so many powerful connections.

Even so, he didn’t know that Yue Feng was going to have dinner with the deputy director-level leader of the Mining Bureau tomorrow night, otherwise, his eyes would have popped out of his head.

…………

That evening, Yue Feng drank tea and chatted with his father-in-law at Wang Xiaona’s house until after nine o’clock. After the wine and food in his stomach were almost digested, he got up and went home.

Wang Xiaona, who had returned to her room, did not sleep either. When she heard that Yue Feng was leaving, she came out of the room and accompanied Yue Feng to the entrance of the alley.

“Go back quickly, it’s extremely cold outside!” Yue Feng waved his hand and said.

Wang Xiaona put her arms around Yue Feng’s waist from behind: “Xiaofeng, thank you for caring so much about my dad’s affairs!”

Yue Feng didn’t say anything. He turned around and saw Wang Xiaona’s sparkling eyes in the moonlight. He pressed his big lips against hers without hesitation.

Wang Xiaona’s response was very strong. The two lovers in love were not afraid of the cold in the middle of winter and just hugged each other and kept kissing each other.

Wang Jianguo, the old father who had also come out to see his son-in-law off, saw this scene from a distance, turned around and went back to the house with a smile on his face.

With such a good and capable son-in-law, my daughter’s happiness in this life is assured! !
……

The next morning, Yue Feng got up on time.

We were going out for a drink in the evening, which was a relatively formal occasion after all, and it would definitely not be appropriate to dress like we did at home, wearing a big cotton-padded jacket and cotton-padded trousers.

Yue Feng went to his neighbor Uncle Li’s house and asked Aunt Li to give him a haircut to make his hair look more energetic. Then he also prepared a relatively formal new suit to wear on his engagement day.

After finishing these trivial matters, Yue Feng stayed at home and did not go anywhere for the rest of the time.

I took the four dogs to play in the yard for a while, and then let the big black hawk fly around in the yard for a while. Before I knew it, it was almost noon.

After lunch, I boiled a large pot of hot water at home, went back to my room and took a thorough hot bath. I cleaned myself up neatly from head to toe before I was done.

In this era, sanitary conditions in rural areas are poor, especially in winter, when it is considered good to just boil some water and wipe the area.

Under normal circumstances, Yue Feng would not worry about this. As a rough man, he just needs to maintain basic hygiene. Going up the mountain and dealing with blood, flesh and mud all day long is not considered to be a decent thing.

However, when socializing with superiors, especially dealing with important people who need to cross their legs to approach, personal hygiene, dress and conversation are quite important, and directly determine the leader’s first impression of you.

Yue Feng has a clear understanding of these things and there is no way he would let anyone down.

After taking a shower, changing clothes and getting a haircut, the already energetic young man became even more serious.

By around four o’clock in the afternoon, Yue Feng felt that the time was almost up, so he brought some venison from home, took out two bottles of Moutai liquor from the cellar, and rode his bike straight to his destination.
