"The medicine of the Mo Family can cure a thousand worries."
This sentence had already been widely spread in Chang 'an City.
What a pity! Most of the wine of the Mo Family was directly supplied to Mo Hospital for medical treatment. In this era without disinfectant, the effect of high-alcohol wine was stronger than that of willow water. Moreover, it was easy to use and had a remarkable effect.
The wine played an important role in making Mo Hospital more and more prosperous. Mr. Hua and Sun Simiao, who realized this, controlled the wine of Mo Hospital even more strictly, not giving anyone a chance to do so.
However, Li Shimin and Qin Qiong were the biggest loopholes. The four of them had taken a lot of wine from the Mo Mansion. Moreover, there was Teacher Li, who loved to drink. Not to mention others, Cheng Yaojin, who loved to show off, had already made the Mo Family's high quality wine famous in Chang 'an City. Moreover, there were some connections. Naturally, some good wine would be leaked out.
However, the less wine leaked, the more famous the wine of the Mo Family became. Every time someone was lucky enough to taste it, they would be amazed. Many people even refused to admit that it was wine, but a kind of medicine, a good medicine to cure a thousand worries.
Therefore, the wine of the Mo Family was called "Cure a Thousand Worries" in Chang 'an City.
There was once a rich businessman who loved wine as much as his life went to Mo Hospital with a lot of money, wanting to buy a jar of Cure a Thousand Worries. However, he was directly kicked out by Mr. Hua. For a while, he became a joke in Chang 'an City, which further increased the reputation of Cure a Thousand Worries.
The biggest reason why so many wealthy merchants had gathered at Savant's Restaurant was because Xu Jie had delivered a bottle of wine to each of them yesterday. He had even said that he had a business deal worth tens of thousands of coins to discuss. Naturally, these wealthy merchants had gathered here.
Businessmen pursued profits and had a keen sense of smell. When such a bottle of wine, which had never been sold in the market and had a great reputation, was about to be released, it was a great business opportunity!
Xu Jie looked around and sighed in his heart. Even when he was at his peak, there were not so many rich businessmen around him. He did not expect that he had reached the peak of his life in less than half a year in the Mo Family's Village.
"I believe all of you have tasted the good wine of Village Mo yesterday. Can anyone give me some advice?" Xu Jie tried to warm up the atmosphere.
"Brother Xu, you're too modest. The Mo Family's fine wine can solve a thousand worries. It's worthy of its reputation in Chang 'an. Yesterday, I had a good time and got drunk. If it weren't for the fact that the servants had to wake me up early in the morning, I would have missed today's event. " Zheng Xuanli laughed. He was also a wine lover. Naturally, he couldn't wait to get his hands on such good wine.
Everyone smiled. Since they were able to attend today's event, they had naturally tasted Qianchou before. Some of them had even invited wine tasters. All of them were full of praise and said that the wine's value was immeasurable.
Otherwise, given their status, how could they possibly be so free as to gather here?
"I'm sure you haven't had enough. Why don't we have another drink today?" Xu Jie raised his glass in invitation.
"Drink Saint!" Everyone naturally gave Xu Jie face and raised their cups in unison.
"Good wine!"
Even if they had drunk this wine yesterday, they still couldn't help but sigh when they drank another cup today.
"Once this wine is out, other wines will be tasteless." Zheng Xuanli put down his cup and praised.
Although his words were suspected of praising the Mo Family's prestige, no one refuted. After all, in a wine that was generally more than 20 degrees, a wine of 40 or 50 degrees suddenly appeared. It was simply like a crane in a flock of chickens.
In addition, the Mo Family's fine wine was not only mellow and fragrant, but also as clear as water and crystal clear. It was also one of the best wines.
After everyone drank a cup, even the most gluttonous people put down their cups one after another. Because everyone knew that it was time to talk about business.
Xu Jie put down his cup but didn't sit down. He reached out his hand and immediately, a Mo Jiazi brother handed a beautifully wrapped paper box to him.
Xu Jie opened the packaging of the Mo Family's imitation wine bottle and took out a brand new bottle of Xie Qianchou. He explained, "Everyone, although this wine is beautiful, its original purpose was not to drink it. It was a medicine that the boss prepared for the Mo Hospital."
"Later, after a strange combination of factors, the news of Xie Qianchou spread in Chang 'an. Many people heard the news and came, but returned disappointed. Many people were confused and asked why the Mo Family had such a fine wine and why they kept it for themselves."
Xu Jie's own question immediately aroused everyone's appetite.
Indeed, with their vision, they could naturally see the huge commercial value of Xie Qianchou. They didn't think that Mo Jiazi, who created such a huge miracle of wealth, couldn't see it. Besides, wasn't Fortune God Xu here?
Leaving such a huge amount of wealth behind was indeed something that everyone was puzzled about. These people who had been in the business world for many years also admitted that they couldn't do it.
"That is because the food used to make this wine is extremely shocking. It is several times more than normal wine. Guanzhong has always had a shortage of food. If we make wine without restraint, it will cause a shortage of food in Guanzhong and affect the daily needs of the people. This is not in line with the philosophy of the Mo Family," Xu Jie explained.
Zheng Xuanli immediately said emotionally, "Marquis Merton is benevolent and righteous!"
The other merchants also nodded. Mo Jiazi gave up such a huge amount of wealth for the philosophy of the Mo Family. This was something that normal people couldn't do.
"And now, with the Mohist family's new farming tools, new water wheels, drought resistance methods, and the experimental fields in the south of the city, I believe that this autumn, Guanzhong will no longer have to worry about food," Xu Jie said passionately.
Everyone nodded. It had to be said that the Mo Family had brought a revolutionary reform to agriculture, especially the drought resistance method. A large scale increase in food production could be expected.
"Of course, the most important thing is that the village of the Mo Family is not short of food now." Xu Jie added a self-deprecating sentence.
Everyone roared with laughter. The confrontation between the headquarters of the Mo Family and the grain merchants of Chang 'an had long been spread in Chang' an. Many people laughed at the village of the Mo Family for overestimating themselves.
Because every grain merchant had a deep foundation and was not something that a new noble like the village of the Mo Family could compete with.
However, after seeing the amazing Xie Qianchou today, they were afraid that the food purchased by Mo Jiazi might not be enough.
With such good wine and a large amount of food in the village of the Mo Family, the wine was good and the output was guaranteed. Everyone was suddenly enlightened and looked at Xu Jie with a deeper meaning.
If this food war was also part of the plan, then Xu Jie was indeed not to be underestimated. However, there was also a possibility that the Mo Family had Xie Qianchou as their trump card. That was why they were able to buy food on such a large scale without any scruples.
"Today, I've invited all of you here for two reasons. First, I want to invite all of you to taste some fine wine. Second, I want to seek cooperation with all of you seniors," Xu Jie said loudly.
