Chapter 406 Brothers
“Zongsang (bastard)——”
“Hahahahahahaha…if you come over here, I’ll throw you all to the ground.”
Holding a bottle of Wuliangye in each hand, Zhang Haodong, whose sailor shirt looked like it was about to explode, almost bit his cheeks to pieces when he saw the drum-shaped bottle that looked like a big carrot.
"Put down the bottle, Zong Sang!!"
"Hahahahahaha... You don't seem to be convinced."
Zhang Haonan held a bottle of Wuliangye in each hand and said with a smile, "This is aged for fifteen years, there is no alcohol left, Zhang Haodong, you don't want my hands to shake, do you?"
"Zong Sang——"
"Hahahahaha..."
Seeing Zhang Haodong furious and helpless, Zhang Haonan was so happy, "You still want to make a comeback here? You idiot."
"Put down the wine!"
"What's the hurry?"
Zhang Haonan sat carelessly on the chair, and when Chen Nianci appeared, he shouted loudly, "Sister-in-law, your husband seems to want to beat me."
"Brother Dong..."
"Wife, don't listen to his nonsense, this jerk is so bad, if he hadn't plotted against me, he would never have married you. Huh?"
"..."
After saying this, Zhang Haodong, who was in a daze, felt that he was not very smart.
Fan Susu, who had accompanied Chen Nianci shopping, laughed like crazy when she heard Zhang Haodong's words, "Brother, what are you talking about? Don't take it to heart, sister-in-law."
"Stupid."
Zhang Haonan put a bottle of wine on the coffee table next to him, and then kicked the box at his feet, "Wheat Ear Wuliangye, unopened in the original box, I guarantee you will be satisfied. I spent a lot of money to get it, and originally planned to let the old man taste it during the National Day. This time you come to Lingnan, it's a bargain for you."
Zhang Haodong licked his lips and wanted to secretly punch Zhang Haonan, but finally restrained this tempting idea.
After all, good wine is still powerful.
Zhang Zhiqin on the side shook his head repeatedly: "I don't know what's so good about this white wine."
"Uncle, what do you know? If you don't know the goods, don't talk too much!"
Zhang Haodong took a step forward and quickly picked up a bottle of wedding wine and wiped it. He smiled as if he had found a treasure, "This wine is so fragrant and strong."
"I'll wait for squad leader Liang and call him to drink together."
Grinning silly, Zhang Haodong threw his worries away.
There is a semi-enclosed hotel garden next to the seaside hotel. It's easy to organize an outdoor event. At present, there are few official social events in Leizhou. The local tyrants also ran away, were sentenced to prison, and were buried in the South China Sea because of committing crimes. Nowadays, there are not many people who have money to entertain guests.
Boss Zhang's visit here is hard to say, but the sales of high-end seafood have suddenly revived.
There are also two outdoor cocktail parties for foreigners, mainly to entertain intellectuals. Zhou Zhengfa actually likes this atmosphere.
The local Women's Federation and the Federation of Literary and Art Circles are even more so.
"You said that after two years of military service, you have learned to find old wine to drink?"
"Don't talk to me."
Zhang Haodong was still squatting there observing the wine bottle to see if there was any wine leaking out. He actually didn't drink much, just as a hobby. If he was happy, he would finish a bottle of Wuliangye with his friends. If he drank it himself, he might still have half a bottle left after two or three months.
What he likes is the cellar aroma of good wine. Zhang Haodong can now taste the different sweetness of white wine. Anyway, Zhang Haonan can't taste it, so he just becomes a good wine supplier.
"Oh, I helped you find such a good wife, and you are still not satisfied? If you are not satisfied, then divorce me. I will go back to Sand City today."
"Humph."
Zhang Haodong was too lazy to pay attention to Zhang Haonan, "I came to my own wedding, how many people laughed at me? You old man, you are so smart."
"Smart is great, you don't accept it?"
"..."
The two spoke in dialect, Fan Susu could understand a little, but Chen Nianci was confused, and didn't know what the two brothers were talking about.
After Fan Susu explained to Chen Nianci, Chen Nianci immediately blushed and covered her mouth and laughed.
She walked to Zhang Haodong and whispered, "Brother Dong, Anan is doing this for your own good."
"Wife, don't listen to his nonsense anymore. He and I grew up together. How could I not know him? He is the worst among the brothers. He has deceived countless people with his appearance."
"Really? Can you tell me how he deceived people? I want to hear it."
"Well, these are all things from childhood. If you want to hear it, I will just tell you a little."
"Brother Dong, I will get some food. Do you want a cup? I will open a bottle of wine by the way."
"Get some longevity fruit... Oh, peanuts, peanuts."
Zhang Haonan, squinting at the side, watched Chen Nianci coaxing Zhang Haodong. Although this sister-in-law is not very old, she is a capable housewife.
"Brother-in-law, this sister-in-law is a little younger, she can be the head of the family."
"Why do you care about others?"
"I want to learn."
"Learn nothing, just take good care of yourself."
He walked out with Fan Susu in his arms, then turned back and shouted, "Do you want Jiannanchun? The first batch of expanded production has been around for fifteen or sixteen years."
"Yes!"
"Then I'll have someone put it in the warehouse, you can go get it yourself during the holidays."
"Okay."
While talking, Chen Nianci had already brought over two small white wine tasting glasses, plus some nuts.
But when he put down the fruit plate, Chen Nianci smiled and said, "Brother Dong, do you want roast goose? The manager here just said there is roast goose and boiled shrimp, which are just made."
"No hurry, wait for my comrades to come and eat together."
"Okay."
The two just sat and chatted. Zhang Haodong couldn't wait to open a bottle of wine and quickly filled it for himself. After smelling the wine, he rubbed his hands, then picked it up and took a sip.
Zhang Haodong enjoyed this rich aroma very much, and he also wondered why Zhang Haonan couldn't drink it.
However, he is not greedy for drinking. One glass is enough. He just enjoys and enjoys it.
"Brother Dong, tell me about your childhood."
"Oh, I forgot to tell you how bad this beast Zhang Nan is. Do you know about 'catching eels'? In fact, it is..."
Talking about some old stories with Chen Nianci, Chen Nianci seemed to be listening to a legendary story, and was surprised by the wild nature of the two brothers.
Zhang Haodong was chatting enthusiastically and waited until his comrades came over before he stopped talking about a hammer and a stick. But Chen Nianci was already very surprised.
Then she learned for the first time that Zhang Haodong and Zhang Haonan were not biological brothers, but they had the same great-grandfather. It was really unexpected that they had such a good relationship.
Later, I heard that there were some cousins, some older and some younger, but they were not the same great-grandfather, they were just the descendants of the family brought up by the great-grandfather.
This completely cleared up Chen Nianci's doubts. Before, she was wondering why Zhang Haocheng was not the eldest brother since he was older.
It was also the first time for the comrades to come to such a place. They were quite novel and a little reserved. It was not until they saw Zhang Haodong drinking with a girl that they gathered around with smiles.
But it wasn't just them, there was also the company commander. There were actually quite a few people there, even more than the last time Zhang Haodong had a wedding banquet.
The company commander didn't keep a straight face this time. After knowing that he couldn't keep Zhang Haodong as a soldier, he still took a more open-minded view.
"You kid, are you eating alone here? What is this? Damn it, Wuliangye?!"
"Damn it, Chen Fang let it go!"
"Company commander, how is this wine?"
"How's it going? This wine is awesome! Damn it, let this kid eat alone, it's confiscated!"
Amid a burst of laughter, the hotel manager had already come over and greeted the soldiers with a smile to quickly find a place to sit and drink.
Glancing at the box of wine at Zhang Haodong's feet, the manager secretly smacked his lips and said that he was indeed a big boss, he really had everything.
Anyway, none of the three local hotels in Leizhou have the original unopened box of Maisui Wuliangye. Most of the products on the market these days are prismatic bottles, which are so hard that they can knock someone to death.
Based on the manager's knowledge, he estimated that the canteens of central and state-owned enterprises in Lingnan might be able to survive, but the general city government's hospitality hotels would not be able to survive.
Boss Zhang is quite capable if he has this ability.
In fact, how did the manager know that Zhang Haonan didn't like drinking at all? He was so awesome that he just said hello and had his legs broken.
After changing the venue, it is not a wine tasting, but a wine fight.
But in the end, I still don’t dare to really put in the effort. I mainly come here for the good food.
There were two games in total. After Zhang Haodong and his comrades had enough fun, they rested for two or three hours and then moved to an open-air venue to have fun together.
There are mainly activities, and there are all kinds of singers and dancers. In the past, all kinds of celebrities who were out of reach on TV can now just go up with a notebook and get their autographs.
Boss Zhang originally planned to sing a song "Linjiang Fairy", but Zhang Haodong threatened to die, so he gave up.
The local celebrities were originally putting on some airs. After all, seeing a group of big-head soldiers, they always felt that they were not up to par, but Boss Zhang also followed suit... Then it was okay.
After dispersing money as usual, the local celebrities who received small gifts were willing to have a "military-civilian relationship."
After the celebrities said their goodbyes and left, it was directly changed to an open-air barbecue. The sea soul shirts matched with the barbecue grills. After all, it was quite atmospheric.
While eating barbecue, the two brothers were chatting. Zhang Haodong asked casually: "Where is Zhang Cheng? Didn't you say you have been in Leizhou?"
"In Osaka."
After taking a bite of grilled prawns, Zhang Haonan said calmly.
"Why did you run away to be a Japanese slave?"
The two of them just found a place to sit on the edge of the flower bed. Zhang Haodong didn't think too much and continued to ask.
"Do you still remember Cao Aijun?"
"What? He's out?"
"Not yet, but soon. Cao Aimin should come out first."
Zhang Haonan chewed the shrimp meat, "I plan to kill him on the day he comes out."
"Um?"
Zhang Haodong frowned slightly after hearing this, "Did something happen?"
"I killed Cao Aijun's brother-in-law, the one named Sun."
"..."
Zhang Haodong was stunned for a moment. He was holding a plate in one hand and a barbecue skewer in his hand, and then asked, "Where were you killed?"
"Osaka. I beat him to death with a baseball bat. Now that I think about it, I shouldn't have."
"You are just too..."
"I should have used a golf club. I tried it when I returned to China. It takes less effort than a baseball bat."
"..."
Zhang Haodong, who was speechless, said in a muffled voice: "I should have known that I would not be a soldier."
"You can't get such a good wife without being a soldier? Save it, you have such a big body, do you know how difficult it is to find a wife?"
"..."
laugh.
After opening a can of beer, Zhang Haodong picked up the wine bottle on the flower bed next to him, touched it with Zhang Haonan, and then said, "Let my subordinates handle this kind of thing from now on."
"Oh."
Zhang Haonan sneered, took a sip of beer, and rattled the beer can, "If I don't dare to 'catch eels,' do you think there are so many brothers in the family who will obey me just because I study well? You are too You’re so naive, I won’t do anything if I can’t use my brain in the future.”
"..."
"Cao Aijun is expected to come out at the end of next year."
Zhang Haonan suddenly said this again.
"Leave it to me."
"good."
clatter.
Beer cans and glass bottles clinked again.
