Chapter 20 Reparations(1/2)

Although he was a little reluctant to part with it, in order to be able to brew medicinal wine, Lin Jun obediently sent a jar of Dionysian wine the next day.

The old man had been waiting at the door early. He saw Lin Jun walking over with a wine jar in his arms, with a smile on his face, but he urged impatiently: "Boy, why are you walking so slowly at such a young age? Hurry up and drink the wine."

Give me."

With that said, he snatched the wine jar from Lin Jun's hand, opened it and took a deep sniff, looking intoxicated.

"You drink it first, I will send it to you in two days." Lin Jun smiled ingratiatingly. In his astonished eyes, the strange old man held the wine jar and started drinking.

The old man held the wine jar and drank for a long time. Finally, he burped with satisfaction and walked towards the yard holding the wine jar.

Lin Jun was completely dumbfounded. All the villagers in Dionysian Village were big drinkers, and there were many who drank one or two kilograms of liquor during a meal, but they were far behind compared to this weird old man.

In that one breath just now, at least I drank more than a pound of wine?

Lin Jun finally knew why the jar of wine delivered two days ago was gone so quickly, and he suddenly felt afraid of what he just said.

"Why are you following me?"

The weird old man walked to the center of the yard, suddenly turned around, and glared at Lin Jun. Lin Jun scratched his head in embarrassment, opened his mouth, and closed it again as if he wanted to say something.

"Forget it, I know you won't honor me for no reason."

The old man sneered, took out four books from the window sill, and threw them to Lin Jun, "Don't you want to learn Chinese medicine? Here are four books. You go back and study them carefully."

Lin Jun's eyes lit up. He held the book as if he had found a treasure and looked at it carefully.

These four books are all rare thread-bound volumes, and the pages have turned yellow, making them look like ancient books.

These four books are called "Nei Jing", "Shanghan", "Golden Chamber" and "Febrile Disease" respectively.

"Come on, come on, don't disturb me drinking." The old man shouted impatiently.

Lin Jun smiled bitterly and immediately stood up to leave.

From then on, Lin Jun led the winery's clerks to make wine during the day, and at night he devoted himself to studying four ancient books and practicing "The Art of Dionysus" very hard.

The day of delivery came in a blink of an eye. The winery's output was originally a bit tight, but after purchasing two thousand kilograms of wine from the Zhang family, it became a lot richer.

On this day, a truck drove into Dionysian Village, and familiar villagers knew that it was Boss Gu from the city who came to receive the goods.

Lin Jun had people package the Bacchus wine early and put it in the yard, waiting for delivery.

A middle-aged man in a suit jumped out of the truck. He had a slicked back hair and a pair of sunglasses, looking very impressive.

Lin Jun knew him as a manager under Gu Lanxin named Chen Tang.

Lin Jun had some trouble with Chen Tang before, but he didn't expect that he would be the one to collect the wine today.

Following Chen Tang, in addition to a driver, there was also an old man in a Chinese tunic suit. He looked about sixty years old, very elegant, and was a wine taster.

"Lin Jun, are the drinks ready?"

Chen Tang was wearing sunglasses. Although he couldn't see his eyes clearly, Lin Jun could still feel a hint of sneer.

"Everything is ready, not a pound or a tael is missing." Lin Jun said.

"good!"

"Weigh!"

Chen Tang waved his hand.

"Weighing?" Lin Jun frowned and said, "This is not the first time that Boss Gu and I have cooperated. I have never been short of anything. I thought I wouldn't use the scale, right?"

"This is a rule. You are young and too immature. You need to learn more about many things."

Chen Tang glanced at Lin Jun disdainfully.

Lin Qingyuan couldn't stand it, and angrily called out to the winery's waiter, "What are you doing standing there? The boss said he needed to be weighed, so hurry up and weigh him!"

The guys brought the scales and started weighing.

With more people and greater strength, the weighing was completed quickly, and the weight was ten kilograms more than agreed upon in the contract.

"Manager Chen, I'm not short of a pound, am I?" Lin Jun smiled and raised his eyebrows.

“The weight is fine, but the quality is not!”

Chen Tang snorted coldly and began to pick through the packaged wine bottles. He selected a few bottles and handed them to the sommelier beside him.

Li Lianshan squatted aside and smashed the pot, his face full of displeasure.

Lin Jun sneered secretly. Chen Tang had clearly made it clear that he wanted to cause trouble for him. However, Lin Jun knew that he did not do secret things, so he was not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night.

The sommelier rolled up his sleeves, unscrewed a bottle of wine, put it to the tip of his nose, smelled it, nodded slightly, and capped the bottle without tasting it.

Immediately afterwards, he picked up the second bottle of wine and put it to the tip of his nose to smell it.

This move made Li Lianshan's face change slightly. As an old winemaker, he knew that a true master of wine tasting does not need to taste at all. He only needs to smell with his nose to smell the aroma.

"Huh? The quality of this wine is much worse than other Bacchus wines. It cannot meet the quality requirements in the contract."

Suddenly, the sommelier handed a bottle of wine to Chen Tang.

Chen Tang's face lit up. He had been waiting for this moment, and immediately shouted at Lin Jun angrily, "Lin Jun, what's going on? Why is there mixed low-quality wine in your wine?"

"impossible!"

Lin Jun asserted, strode forward, took the bottle from Chen Tang's hand, put it to the tip of his nose and smelled it.

The taste is no different from Dionysian wine.

Lin Jun was not a master of wine tasting, so he was a little unsure based on the taste alone, so he simply poured a little into the bottle cap and tasted it.

"What!?"

Lin Jun's face suddenly changed, and his hands were shaking slightly.

"Boy Lin, what's going on?"

Li Lianshan stood up, dusted off the dust on his body, took the wine from Lin Jun's hand, smelled it, his face changed slightly, then he stuck out his tongue to taste it, and sighed awkwardly.

"This wine is indeed a bit worse than pure Dionysian wine."

Li Lianshan shook his head.

"Uncle Li, what's going on? Our winery doesn't mix any low-quality wine!"

When Lin Qingyuan heard this, he suddenly panicked.

Li Lianshan was silent, his brows furrowed into the Chinese character "Sichuan". This matter was strange, and he couldn't think of a reason why.

"Hmph, I know there are a lot of unscrupulous people in poor places. You unscrupulous people, in order to make money, actually add water to the wine. Do you know that by doing this, you have seriously affected the brand reputation of Dionysus!"

With a sneer on his face, Chen Tang strode forward and glared at Lin Jun condescendingly, "What else do you want to say?"

Lin Jun was extremely anxious.

Although he knew that Chen Tang was deliberately looking for trouble, there was indeed something wrong with the quality of the wine, which he could not deny.

"Boy Lin, I know the reason."

Suddenly, Li Lianshan said to Lin Jun: "I checked a few bottles of wine and found that the wine made from the two thousand kilograms of wine purchased from the Zhang family tastes much worse."

"Is there something wrong with the Zhang family's wine?"

Lin Jun's face turned livid with anger.

It was enough for Zhang Xiaokang to poison Lin Jun's winery. Lin Jun ignored the blame and bought the Zhang family's winery to reduce the Zhang family's losses. Unexpectedly, his wine was actually held back!

"Lin Jun, you inspected my wine when it was delivered to you. I don't dare to add water to the wine. Old Uncle Li can prove this."

Zhang Dashan was trembling with fear and approached Lin Jun in an attempt to prove his innocence.

Lin Jun frowned and turned to look at Li Lianshan. Li Lianshan squatted down and smashed the cigarette pot. He was silent for a long time and then nodded, "I am responsible for checking the Zhang family's wine. There is indeed nothing wrong with it. Alas,

I don’t know why, but after it was brewed into Bacchus wine, the taste was far worse!”

"Huh, stop talking nonsense!"

"Lin Jun, the two thousand kilograms of wine you purchased from the Zhang family are of such poor quality that I will not accept it!"

Chen Tang smiled proudly and said sarcastically: "Also, I will tell Boss Gu about your shoddy work. I believe she will carefully consider the next cooperation."

Lin Jun's face changed slightly and he nodded helplessly.

If the quality of the wine is not good, it is reasonable for Chen Tang not to purchase it.

"Don't worry, this time it was purely an accident. This will definitely not happen next time." Lin Jun said in a deep voice.

"Haha, let's talk about the future things later. Let's finish today's things first."

Chen Tang lit a cigarette, glanced at the villagers in the yard, and sneered, "Lin Jun, you failed to pay the stipulated drinks on time, and you also committed bad behavior of shoddy goods. According to the contract,

, you must pay liquidated damages!"

"What!?"

"Compensation for liquidated damages?"

Lin Jun was slightly startled, and Li Lianshan, Lin Qingyuan and others also looked panicked.

"Yes, according to the contract, you have to pay 100,000 yuan in liquidated damages! After deducting the cost of your batch of wine, you still need to pay me 10,000 yuan in liquidated damages!"
