I'm back in 1990

Chapter 477: A Wine Worth Ten Thousand

After handing the two children over to Yu Xiang and Tang Yuan, Huang Xiaochuan consulted Yu Wei for his opinion.

"Would you like something to drink?"

Yu Wei completely inherited his father's love of alcohol. If you look at a table full of delicious food and don't drink any alcohol, what's the point of eating?

"Is that even a question? Of course we'll drink it!"

Seeing that Yu Wei wanted to drink, Huang Xiaochuan went to the storage room and took out a bottle of aged Moutai.

"Here you go!" Huang Xiaochuan placed the bottle directly in front of Yu Wei.

Yu Wei noticed a bottle of wine and asked, "Aren't you going to drink?"

Huang Xiaochuan pulled a bottle of Wuliangye liquor from the cabinet next to the dining table and waved it at Yu Wei: "I'll drink this!"

Yu Xiang and Tang Yuan placed the three children in high chairs, gave each of them a meal, and let them eat by themselves while the two of them stayed by their side. As the saying goes, when there are many people, everyone is eager to eat, and the three children also competed to see who could eat faster or slower.

Huang Xiaochuan and Yu Wei chatted and drank, glancing at the three children every now and then.

"Professor Huang, I heard there are people trying to get into your program through connections? I didn't know you were so popular!"

"How did you know?" Huang Xiaochuan was somewhat surprised, knowing that Yu Xiang wouldn't tell Yu Wei about this.

Yu Wei picked up a large piece of pomfret and placed it in front of him: "I saw Lao Ding a while ago, and he told me about it."

Huang Xiaochuan immediately guessed that Ding Yi must have gone to the customs office to take care of something, otherwise how could Yu Wei have seen him?

"Did he buy something?"

Yu Wei nodded: "Wow, do you know what he bought?"

Huang Xiaochuan retorted irritably, "How should I know?"

Seeing that Huang Xiaochuan was getting impatient, Yu Wei stopped beating around the bush: "He bought eight Ferrari sports cars and went to customs to go through the clearance procedures."

Huang Xiaochuan was stunned. Ding Yi had gotten cocky just because he had a little money in his pocket? He actually bought so many sports cars in one go?

Seeing Huang Xiaochuan's surprised expression, Yu Wei asked, "You don't know?"

"Of course I don't know. He doesn't need to report to me what he buys, does he?"

As the saying goes, speak of Cao Cao and he appears. Just then, a roar of an engine came from outside the courtyard wall. Huang Xiaochuan knew immediately that it was the sound of a sports car engine.

He was still wondering, could it be that bastard Ding Gungun who's here?

The thought had barely crossed my mind when the doorbell rang.

The nanny went to open the door, and sure enough, it was Ding Yi!

He swaggered into the living room, twirling a red car key on his index finger.

Seeing that Huang Xiaochuan and Yu Wei had already started drinking, he immediately widened his small eyes and said, "Damn it! You didn't even wait for me to eat?"

The three children stopped eating and stared at Ding Yi.

Yu Xiang stood up and greeted, "Ding Yi, you're here! Haven't eaten yet? Sit down quickly, I'll go get you a set of bowls and chopsticks." With that, Yu Xiang went to the kitchen to get the tableware.

Ding Yi thanked Yu Xiang, greeted Yu Wei, and then plopped down next to Huang Xiaochuan, casually placing the keys in front of him.

Huang Xiaochuan first looked at the car keys in front of him, then at Ding Yi: "What do you mean by this?"

Ding Yi feigned a very generous attitude: "It's a gift for you, how about it? A Ferrari! A world-class sports car brand, driving it will be incredibly eye-catching! You'll get at least 99% attention on the road."

Huang Xiaochuan used his chopsticks to place the car keys in front of Ding Yi again: "I'm not as flashy as you, and I don't like this type of car either. It's like lying down inside, and the seats are so hard they hurt your butt. It's only fast and has no other advantages."

Ding Yi stared at Huang Xiaochuan for a long time, strongly recommending "1990, I'm Back!" Then, he asked with a hint of doubt, "You've driven sports cars before?"

Huang Xiaochuan picked up a piece of smoked fish, stuffed it into his mouth, chewed it a few times, swallowed it, and then slowly replied, "Haven't you ever seen a pig run even if you haven't eaten pork? Have you forgotten? I've lived in Hong Kong too."

Upon hearing this, Ding Yi placed the keys in front of Huang Xiaochuan again: "I don't take back things I've given away. If you don't like them, you can give them away!"

Huang Xiaochuan glanced at the car keys and then asked Ding Yi, "Yu Wei said you bought eight Ferraris in one go?"

Ding Yi shook his head: "To be honest, I didn't buy any of these cars."

"???" Huang Xiaochuan looked puzzled.

"Could it be that Ferrari gifted you a car because you're handsome?"

Ding Yi chuckled: "It's pretty much the same as delivering it!"

Upon hearing this, Huang Xiaochuan and Yu Wei realized there was more to the story! Intrigued, they wanted to hear what Ding Yi had to say.

Ding Yi didn't keep them in suspense any longer; he directly revealed the answer: "These are the spoils of this financial defense battle. They all originally belonged to the second young master of the Lin family, a wealthy Hong Kong family. However, because this kid betrayed his country and tried to join international capital in shorting the Hong Kong exchange rate, he ended up losing more than he gained. He was so broke that he had to sell his clothes everywhere, so all the companies under his name became mine, and these cars registered under the company's name naturally belonged to me as well."

"If that's the case, then why did you bring these cars to Shanghai? You could have just left them in Hong Kong!" Huang Xiaochuan got up and took a set of wine utensils, placing it in front of Ding Yi.

Ding Yi filled his own dispensing bottle with the Wuliangye liquor in front of Huang Xiaochuan.

"Don't you know me? I always want to share good stuff with my brothers! Otherwise, why would I go through all that trouble to bring these cars back?"

Huang Xiaochuan roughly guessed why Ding Yi had brought these cars back, but he pretended not to know and didn't reveal the reason.

Yu Wei urged from the side, "Old Ding, stop talking and eat a few bites of food to fill your stomach. We'll have a drink later; it's been a while since we drank together."

Upon hearing this, Ding Yi immediately put down his chopsticks, picked up his wine glass, and clinked it against Yu Wei's: "No rush with the food, let's have a few drinks first!"

With Ding Yi joining them, the three of them talked even more, chattering on and on. Seeing that the three children were sleepy, Yu Xiang and Tang Yuan took them upstairs.

Suddenly, Ding Yi remembered something and slapped his thigh hard!

He took out his phone, dialed a number, and said a few words into the phone.

Not long after, Huang Xiaochuan's phone rang. He answered it, listened for a few moments, then looked at Ding Yi and said into the phone, "Bring it in!"

Not long after, Li Huan brought in two young men carrying two boxes. After putting the boxes down, they left.

Ding Yi pointed to the box: "I knew you liked these things, so I specially got them back for you."

Huang Xiaochuan was already slightly drunk, and when he heard Ding Yi say that, he opened the box.

Huang Xiaochuan opened another box, inside which was a gilded bronze artifact. Inside the bronze artifact was a bottle of exquisite Moutai liquor. Huang Xiaochuan's pupils contracted, and he instantly sobered up. Could this be the legendary "Han Emperor Moutai"?

Only ten bottles of this wine were ever produced, and they are almost all collected by collectors. They are virtually unavailable on the market. The only thing you can see of them is in pictures on auction listings. I remember in 2022, this bottle of wine fetched a high price of 30 million, which surprised many people.

Huang Xiaochuan pointed at the bottles of liquor, his face full of surprise, and asked Ding Yi, "Where did you get these?"

Ding chuckled, fiddling with the small wine glass in his hand. "This was also part of the Lin family's second young master's collection. I bought it all. Knowing you like these things, I'm giving it to you!"

These wines were far more attractive than the sports car, so Huang Xiaochuan accepted them immediately without any hesitation from Ding Yi.
