Cui Yiye's words have been made very clear. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"It's nothing more than saying that these are my orders, and they have nothing to do with anyone else." Dou Shikuan replied angrily.

"That's it, that's it, arranging people to do things always cost something. Come. Cui Yiye clapped his hands gently, and after an entourage came in, Cui Yiye ordered: "Prepare another 50,000 yuan, and send it to Brother Dou Shi in a while." ”

Dou Shikuan didn't say anything thanks, got up and hugged his fist, and left.

The next day, Jingyang.

Liu Mu received a message from Ye Siniang.

"Who's that?" Yanagi asked the person who came to deliver the message. I saw that the one shook his head: "My subordinates don't know, that person claims to have no name and no surname, and it turns out that he came to Chang'an on the recommendation of a friend." He doesn't have any talent, he can't be a thousand miles, and he claims to be just a donkey, so everyone calls him a thin donkey, but he is a drunkard. ”

Drinker?

Liu Mu patted his head and recalled the famous characters of this era in the Tang Dynasty, but he couldn't think of anyone who was a drunkard and such a talented person.

No, no. Liu Mu shook his head vigorously, all he remembered were big celebrities, but the early Tang Dynasty was an era of countless talents, and there must be something he didn't remember. The man who has left a prominent name in history is not a dictionary himself, but a coder.

At that moment, Liu Mu asked, "You say, he is good wine." ”

"Yes."

"You go to eat first, then take a rest, and rush back to Chang'an today." Liu Mu told the messenger to wait first, and quickly ran to the glass workshop and found the craftsman: "Old Batou, can you pick a barely usable bottle for me?" ”

"Lang Jun, you wait, there is a square bottle made of molds that can barely be used, and he said that he will show it to you." When Lao Batou was young, he was called Ryuhachiro, a family heirloom glazer, if it weren't for the war, he would now be considered a petty bourgeoisie.

Finding a bottle, Yanagi went to find the fifth of the top six foremen around him.

Ninth Master.

Jiuye's surname is Bai, there is only one person in the family, no brothers, and no children, but he was once the imperial wine master of the Great Sui Palace, and later became Wang Shichong's first-class wine master. In this life, there is only wine, and the craftsmanship is only wine, so he is called Uncle Wine, and he is slowly called the Ninth Master.

"Old man, make me a bottle of wine." Liu Mu smiled and entered the winery.

This winery originally belonged to Qin Qiong's family, and the military generals of this era did not store hundreds of jars of good wine.

"Can little old man say no?"

"Give me a reason first."

"The new wine, just in the cellar, has not yet melted away the irritable atmosphere. What's more, Xiao Langjun is not afraid of this wine letting people know, if you can't keep the wedding day, you will be robbed early. The ninth master squatted beside the trough with a smile and looked at the newly pressed material.

Liu Mu thought about it, but still said: "It's okay, Old Fairy Cheng is not here, there are not many people who dare to come and rob me of wine." ”

"Xiao Lao'er has persuaded you, Lang Jun, you want to mix wine, Xiao Lao'er will mix it. Or, Lang Jun, you have a way to pass this limit, then there are countless grains in our warehouse, not far from here, and Xiao Lao'er still knows a larger wine cellar, which is estimated to be idle. ”

The limit mentioned by the Ninth Master means that Datang moonshine is illegal, and there must be a limit for the wine made in the homes of these nobles.

Willow cares about the cellar.

"You're talking about the cellar?"

"Dahan Bacchus Kiln, with your new method of steaming wine, plus the Bacchus Cellar. Little old man does not live in vain. ”

"Du Kang?" Liu Mu thought that only Baishui County, two hundred miles north from here, where there was an ancient wine cellar that had been protected in later modern times, was called Baishui Dukang Cellar.

"Exactly."

"Mix me four bottles of wine, I'll find a way to limit it, and then get that cellar." Liu Mu wanted that wine cellar, which was placed in the modern age of later generations, and few people dared to say that this was an ordinary wine cellar.

When it comes to steamed wine, Yanagi really underestimates history.

In the Han Dynasty, there was a method of steaming wine, called burning spring. In the Tang Dynasty, there were already three distilled and three wined wines. But the process of steaming is very different from that of modern times, because in this era grain is very important, it is not steamed many times, and the pottery used to steam wine. The steaming method of sealing with an iron pot like willow wood was only really used in the Song Dynasty.

Bartending, it's a craft.

Jiu Ye used at least eight kinds of puree wine, plus Liu Mu's ruthlessly steamed super spirits of up to 70 to 80 degrees. It took Jiu Ye a full hour, constantly trying, tasting, and then concocted a barrel of about forty-five degrees, full of fragrant wine.

When Liu Mu was about to pour it into the glass bottle, he was stopped by Jiu Ye: "Xiao Langjun, use a clay bottle and then pack it with clay." This wine is not good. ”

"Cheng, listen to you."

Liu Mu asked a small man in the cellar to carry a wooden box full of soil from the bottom of the cellar and then buried the bottles to the front yard.

I wrote two very long letters and handed them to the person who came to deliver the news.

"Remember, this box can only be opened by Ye Siniang."

"Yes." The messenger placed the letter in his close-fitting place, then tied the wooden box to the saddle and rode away.

That night, Ye Siniang first read the letter, then opened the box, and saw that there were ten small wine bottles in the box, and each bottle contained about eight taels of wine.

(Note: Eight taels in the Tang Dynasty, equivalent to half a catty of wine now.) ）

Ye Siniang took out a bottle from it, then buried the nine bottles again, and instructed the people around her: "Then call a donkey." ”

Skinny Donkey is adapting the willow wood version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, but when it comes to this part of Chibi, he is stuck, and in such a grand battle, he always feels that something is missing. Just when she heard Ye Siniang's call, she hurriedly packed up the paper on the table, closed the door and came to the middle courtyard.

On the case, there was the wooden box, a bottle of wine, and two letters.

"Taste the wine first."

Ye Siniang personally poured a small cup of about two dollars for the thin donkey, such a small cup is definitely not in Datang, this is still a small cup specially made by willow wood.

Just smelling the wine, the thin donkey's eyes lit up.

After a glass of wine, the thin donkey's expression became very serious, and he sat upright, holding the letter on the table with both hands.

"Yo, you who take wine as your life, can actually bear it." Ye Siniang laughed at the thin donkey.

The thin donkey said: "The owner took out such a valuable gift, and he also regarded it as a hundred-mile donkey, so he should not miss the owner's business." ”

Speaking seriously, acting more seriously.

After reading the two letters, the thin donkey praised: "The owner is really talented, according to the plan of the owner." Please allow me to polish it. ”

In this letter, the score is in order. In the next opinion, the latter is used first, and the first is pushed to the tenth day of the first month. The first step is that there is no need for the proprietor to enter the palace, and there is no need to ask someone to do it on his behalf, as long as the proprietor officially submits the petition to the ministry in accordance with the rules of the DPRK and the central government. At the same time, as a junior, I offer my heart. ”
