Han Shimou

Chapter 249 Drunken Fairy Wine

"Zhicai, don't worry too much. I believe in Zhong Dao."

Wen Han seemed to have guessed Xilong's concern and nodded faintly to let Xilong continue. Originally, Wei Zhongdao also heard some smell and wanted to avoid it, but when he heard the word "believe" of Wenhan, his heart trembled. For a moment, a lot of thoughts welled up in his mind. He bowed his head and meditated and said silently.

"Hmm. Then I'll be blunt. If the Taishou Lord wants to get involved in the whole business of Hedong, some discerning rich people must have guessed that the lord wants to seize the economic lifeline of Hedong in his hand and stabilize Hedong. In this way, the status of the rich family will be greatly reduced in the mind of Lord Taishou.

The people of the rich family have always thought that they are the masters of Hedong. How can they let the Taishou family be dominant and will be obstructed in every way. Therefore, it is almost impossible for Taishou to cooperate with them in business.

And those giants and rich people are not so ambitious. After all, these people only have money, no military strength or fame. Therefore, what they value is interests. This can be given as long as Lord Taishou can give it. Then they will cooperate with the Taishou Lord without hesitation.

So next, what we want to attract is this group of rich businessmen. As for how I want to get involved in this business, this is really not what I am good at. Lord Taishou, let's ask Brother Wei for advice.

Xilong said, and then turned his eyes to Wei Zhongdao again. The Wei family's business covers the whole Hedong, among which Wei's silk is the most famous, which is a century-old brand.

Wei Jia attaches great importance to business, and there are also many business wizards. As the head of the Wei family, Wei Zhongdao certainly surpasses ordinary people in the business field.

"Ha ha, Zhicai, don't you self-proported to be a talented person? I didn't expect that you were not good at it.

"Lord Taishou, no one is perfect."

For Wen Han's ridicule, Xilong just replied indifferently. After that, the two of them turned their eyes to Wei Zhongdao. Wei Zhongdao was meditating. After a while, he straightened his face and said.

"First of all, what Mr. Xi said is very reasonable. If you want to hold the business in Hedong, you must cooperate with the rich merchants in Hedong. As for how to intervene, I think the lord is always a person of the government. In the eyes of these giants, the identity is different, that is to say, they are not the same people.

Therefore, I suggest that Lord Taishou should be a businessman first, so that he can go with those giant merchants and rich people, and then talk about cooperation.

"Doing business?"

In fact, Wen Han also thought about this idea in his heart.

Moreover, in this half month, Wei Zhongdao and Xilong were the executors of the land acquisition war. He was idle. At that time, he also had the idea of being a businessman, and Xilong had reminded him that the income of the gambling house alone was not enough to support the long-term transformation of the whole group.

Therefore, Wen Han is also in the intention to find a second way to make money. So, he used this half a month to start researching a product.

"Since you want to do business, you need to sell goods. I don't know, Lord Taishou, is there any best-selling product?

Xilong suddenly smiled and looked at Wen Han with interest.

When Wen Han saw his smile, he knew that he must have smelled the taste of his research products, knew the products he had studied, and not only knew, but also had drunk it secretly.

"I just thought why there were so many mice at home, and I almost drank my drunken fairy wine. It turns out that this mouse is so big. No wonder, no wonder.

Cough. This is not for Lord Taishou. How can such a good wine be hidden? Good things should be shared by everyone. This wine tastes good.

Wei Zhongdao was confused when he listened, and then watched Xilong's intoxicated look and asked unconsciously.

"Drunken fairy wine? Are you studying wine, Lord Taishou? Moreover, has it been studied?"

"Well, it's just that I have nothing to do. Try it at will. However, Zhong Dao can come with me to see if this wine can be sold well.

"Good. It's really a blessing to be able to taste the wine brewed by Lord Taishou, so I'm not polite.

Wei Zhongdao followed Wen Han with curiosity and suspicion on his face. At this time, there were not many varieties of wine at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and it was most famous for the sake brewed by the bureaucrats in the pre-Qin period and the soy sauce wine brewed by the people in the Qin and Han dynasties.

If Wen Han can really develop a new variety, there is no doubt that this new wine will sell well. Of course, the premise is that the wine is good.

Although Wen Han deliberately did not ask Xi Long to follow him, Xi Long, who was a lover of wine by nature, didn't care whether Wen Han invited him or not, and followed them. Wen Han led Wei Zhongdao and Xi Long to a small winery in Taishou's house.

This small winery was built by Wenhan. It is fully equipped. Although there are not many tools for brewing wine, it is just enough for one person to operate.

In the winery, there are a lot of wheat, barley, rice and other food crops. Wei Zhongdao smelled these food crops curiously. These crops should have been fermented and have a pungent special smell.

"Nah. How about you try this wine?

Wen Han came to a wine jar, opened the mud seal, handed a bamboo tube to Wei Zhongdao, and motioned Wei Zhongdao to suck directly into the wine jar with a bamboo tube.

"You don't have to inhale too much. This is strong after drinking.

Although Wei Zhongdao nodded, he didn't pay much attention to this. Whether it is sake or soy sauce, it is a light wine. Although Wei Zhongdao does not say how good the wine is, at least a few jars of sake can not get drunk. This can be intoxicating with a sip. Wei Zhong Daoquan thought that Wen Han was too drunk.

Wei Zhongdao took the bamboo tube, walked to the edge of the wine jar, put the bamboo tube in, and sucked it hard. As soon as the wine entered the mouth, Wei Zhongdao felt that the whole mouth was burning. After swallowing it, the whole body and internal organs seemed to be burning, and then the blood seemed to be constantly heating.

After a while, Wei Zhongdao actually felt that he was sweating. At this time, there was a cool breeze blowing, and he only felt extremely happy all over his body.

"Ah, that's cool.

Wei Zhongdao looked up and moaned, and his face was flushed. The liquor seemed to be addictive. Wei Zhongdao suddenly felt that he had a thousand pounds of strength, and his blood vessels sprayed. There was a kind of wanton act, shocking many invisible constraints in the world, and became the free and unrestrained immortal.

"Uh..."

Wei Zhongdao staggered a step and almost fell down.

This wine has not been processed with muddy water, and the wine is the strongest, so Wen Han just told him not to drink too much. Unexpectedly, Wei Zhongdao didn't pay attention to this at all. It seems that he should be drunk.

"Hey hey, let me try it, too."

Xilong rudely grabbed the bamboo tube in Wei Zhongdao's hand and couldn't wait to run to the wine jar. His eyes flashed, as if a flower picker saw a big girl with white flowers.

Xilong has had several experience. He sucked one by one, and every time he sucked it made a groan like a rooster's hair, giving people the feeling of eating marijuana.

"This drunkard shines when he sees wine."

Xilong is not good at anything, but only good wine. Seeing his drunken appearance, Wen Han couldn't help crying and laughing.

And Wei Zhongdao, who was beside him, drank too much in one sip because he drank this drunken fairy wine for the first time, and the sound of alcohol suddenly hit his head. This was unclear. He shook his head vigorously and said in Wen Han's ear with drunken eyes.

"No... Fan, listen to me... This drunken fairy wine... is enough to make... You become the whole Anyi... No! ...The richest man in the whole Hedong!!"

This drunken fairy wine is the original form of Wuliangye in later generations. During the Northern and Southern Song Dynasties, the Yi people used wheat, barley, rice and other grains to brew a kind of wine.

Since then, it has pioneered the use of a variety of grain brewing. The wine manufacturing process is not complicated, and the materials are simple and the cost is not high. And the winemaking time is not long.

The wine is named because of the way it drinks. When brewing, the grain is boiled and dried, and the wine is mixed well. It is served in the pottery altar. The mouth of the altar is sealed with thin mud and covered with grass to let it ferment in more than ten days.

In later generations, Li Rulong, Wenhan's adoptive father, was a drunk who was addicted to alcohol. Because of my special status, I can't eat wine from the outside world. This makes Li Rulong have no wine this day, and he will be like a drunkard who is eaten by ten thousand ants.

Therefore, Li Rulong specially learned how to make wine, and Wen Han, as his adopted son, was trained by his name and asked Wen Han to help him make wine. One kind of wine is Wuliangye.

However, at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was difficult to find all the materials for Wuliangye, and Wenhan could only use wheat, barley and rice, which were relatively simple ingredients.

However, it seems that this effect is enough.

Drunken fairy wine requires a low cost, and the manufacturing time only takes ten days. Wei Zhongdao and Xilong, who have tasted the taste of Zui Xian brew, have great confidence in the sale of Zui Xian brew.

And Wen Han is a person who does what he says and does it. He immediately made people build a wine shop outside Anyi City and start the wholesale development of drunken fairy wine. At the same time, Wei Zhongdao gave Wen Han a list.

The names on these lists are all rich merchants in Hedong. Wen Han packaged the previously developed pot of drunken fairy wine into hundreds of bottles of fine goods and gave it to the rich merchants on the list.

Three days later, the effect of Drunken Fairy Brew did not disappoint Wen Han. The rich merchants in various counties in Hedong seemed to come to Anyi as if they were crazy. All of them want a certain amount of drunken fairy wine for sales.

The cost of drunken fairy brewing needs to be low, but Wenhan has an absolute monopoly in the market. After discussing with Xilong and Wei Zhongdao, the price of this drunken fairy wine reached the sky-high price of a bottle of five silver.

Although the price is ridiculously high, these rich businessmen who have tasted Zui Xian wine know the charm of Zui Xian wine, and in today's era, the market for high-end and precious wine is particularly empty. Once this Zui Xian wine comes out, it will become the leader of the high-end and precious wine market!
