"Whew, sheath, but it tastes so good!"

"I'm a mother, this smell, the brick face, don't rob me!"

"The black guy is fast, the hand is slow, no wonder others!"

All kinds of shouts rang out, just like a battlefield. Although it was the first time I had eaten spicy hot pot, the main hall was full of pure masters, but I got used to it in an instant and liked the taste. As a result, the scramble finally appeared. Here, Dian Wei stretched out his chopsticks to clamp the mutton slices he fancied, and Gao Shun also took a fancy to them, but as a result, the two of them stared at each other with big eyes, and no one refused to let go first. After staring for a long time, the two suddenly found that everyone else was desperately stuffing vegetables into their mouths, and the two of them stupidly didn't move for a piece of mutton for a long time.

"I'll count one, two, three, let's let go together, how about it?"

Dian Wei's eyes turned red, and finally compromised with Gao Shun. And Gao Shun also nodded and agreed with Dian Wei's suggestion. However, looking at the eyes of the two, they seem to have different ideas.

"Well, this lamb slice has been cooked for a long time, and it tastes good!"

When Dian Wei finished counting three, the two of them let go at the same time, and then stretched out their chopsticks at the same time, ready to pick up the mutton slices, and both seemed to have the same thought. However, the cup happened, and just as they put down the chopsticks, Zhao Yun's chopsticks stretched out and threw the mutton slices that the two had been fighting for a long time into their mouths, and they also praised them while chewing.

"Zilong, I'm angry!"

Dian Wei looked at Zhao Yun with red eyes, okay, he and Gao Shun competed with the two clam sandpipers, but in the end, it was Zhao Yun, the fisherman, who profited. Then, Dian Wei shouted: "Juzi, Wen Ze, help me!"

Gao Shun's unchanging brick face also pulled down, and said solemnly: "Brother Zilong, your behavior is wrong. As the host, you should be humble to our guests. Wenyuan, and help me!"

After saying that, Dian Wei and Gao Shun finished shouting, only to find that the helpers they were looking for were all happily eating there, how could they care about them? and Zhao Yun, who sandwiched their mutton slices, brushed off their clothes, and then ate a lot. At this time, it's too late to scramble, and who has time to take care of the two of them.

In desperation, the two had no choice but to join the battlefield and start a new round of scramble.

Whether it is the reckless men in the main hall or the jasper-like girl family in the side hall, they don't care about their image at the moment, they are robbing and eating. As Gao Shun said, there are fast hands, but there are slow hands.

On the main table, there were only four people, which was a little better than the other tables.

Lu Bu threw a chili pepper into his mouth, and sighed while chewing: "It's so delicious, it's an endless aftertaste." However, there is a lack of fun, which is regrettable. ”

"What Lord Wenhou said is exactly what I want!"

Guo Jia also nodded in agreement. The flaw in the mouths of the two is naturally that there is no wine to match. Lu Bu had the idea of osmanthus wine, and since he drank it last time, Lu Bu was not interested in drinking other wines. I finally had a chance today, of course Lu Bu wanted Yuan Chang to get some.

And Guo Jia knows that Yuan Chang is not only osmanthus wine, but also in the Taishou Mansion, Yuan Chang buried a lot of fine wine. Guo Jia, of course, wanted Yuan Chang to get some fine wine.

"Huh!"

As a literati, Cai Yong is naturally a good winemaker. I saw him smile lightly, looked at Yuan Chang and said: "You two, you look at Yuan Xian's nephew's expression, obviously the virtuous nephew has been prepared for a long time, why do you need to say anything more!"

Yuan Chang had a smile on his face, obviously being said by Cai Yong. I saw Yuan Chang looking at Guo Jia with a smile, and said angrily: "Okay, Fengxiao, it turns out that you have been beating me up for the idea of fine wine." Fortunately, I buried the secret, otherwise it would have been dug up by you just like at the beginning. ”

"Haha!"

Guo Jia seemed to think that when he was in Dongping County, he, Dian Wei and Zhao Yun went to steal Yuan Chang's wine in the middle of the night, but Yuan Chang found out. At that time, the three of them behaved like children. Thinking of his original behavior, Guo Jia couldn't help laughing, and it was thanks to meeting a lord like Yuan Chang that he could get along like this.

After talking and laughing with Guo Jia, Yuan Chang didn't procrastinate, and shouted directly outside: "Come on, serve wine and juice!"

Anyway, when everyone heard Yuan Chang's voice, they were a little puzzled. It's understandable to serve wine, but what is juice?

However, soon, everyone saw the juice in Yuan Chang's mouth.

A cup of golden or pale green drink is the juice that Yuan often says. And these two juices are orange juice and apple juice, which Yuan Chang made out for the women to drink. After all, not everyone drinks, and Yuan Chang also has to take care of his daughter's family. And, most surprisingly, the juice was still steaming cold.

Yuan Chang didn't prepare much juice, and most of it was sent to the side hall for the woman to drink. At Yuan Chang's table, he left two cups of orange juice and two cups of apple juice.

One cup for four people. As for the people at the other tables, they all drank their wine.

"Lord, how can this juice be icy?"

Guo Jia looked at Yuan Chang curiously, and Lu Bu and Cai Yong next to him also had the same look.

In ancient times, ice cubes were not so readily available. In the era before Yuan Chang traveled, whether it was a refrigerator or an ice storage, the problem of ice cubes could be solved. However, in this era, technology is so advanced, and it is difficult to make ice cubes.

It was a very troublesome thing for the ancients to get ice cubes.

That is, in winter, on the surface of rivers and lakes, the ice surface is cut into rectangular blocks with ice hammers, and the thickness of the ice at this time is not enough, and the lower part of the cut ice continues to freeze and thicken. Within a few days, the original cut is cut again, and the ice will float a little and thicken. In this way, it was cut and thickened again and again, until it passed the coldest stage. When the ice is raised, the last broken ice blocks are pulled up the shore slope with a hook, transported to the ice cellar, and stacked into stacks. And the ice cubes obtained in this way will only be used in the hot summer, and they can only be used by high-ranking officials and nobles. The special ice cellar for putting ice cubes is only available in the palace, like the mansions of town guards in various places, and it is just a simple ice cellar to dig and store ice cubes, which is not as good as the ice cellar of some rich people.

Therefore, in ancient times, ice cubes were undoubtedly a luxury, and ordinary people simply did not need them. Although the season is summer, it has not yet reached that unbearable state.

Yuan Chang shrugged his shoulders and said casually: "Actually, it's just some small ways to make the juice cold and delicious." That method, even if you want to make ice cubes, is not a difficult task. ”

For people in this era, it is difficult to obtain ice cubes, but for Yuan Chang, it is really not difficult.

In my previous life, I learned when I was in school that you can get ice cubes with saltpeter. Saltpeter is not a precious thing, it is sold in pharmacies, Yuan Chang casually buys a few hundred catties, puts it there for later use, and throws saltpeter into the water when he wants to use ice cubes, and it won't take long to get ice cubes. Although it is not a difficult matter, Yuan Chang has no intention of announcing it.

First of all, if it is said, then the price of saltpeter will undoubtedly rise, causing saltpeter to be mined in large quantities, which is not a good thing. Secondly, ice cubes are not a necessary daily necessities, Yuan Chang can sell things like salt at a low price, but the method of ice cubes is not, this method is left to children and grandchildren, and it is also a way to get rich. However, the price of ice cubes can be lowered, so that people can also get some benefits in the hot summer.

Hearing that Yuan Chang was able to obtain ice cubes, everyone's eyes lit up.

If there is this method, then the ice cubes are not only available as they want, but they need to be used sparingly as before. The ice cubes obtained in winter are also limited, and they usually don't dare to squander them indiscriminately, and only when they have to use them will they take some out. If you have Yuan Chang's method, you can add ice cubes to take a bath in summer.

"Brother Yuan, since we are allies, do you think this method is possible?"

Lu Bu's face changes quickly, when he is dissatisfied, he calls Yuan Changxiaoer or Yuan Taishou, when he is close, he calls Yuan Chengzhi, and now even Brother Yuan shouts out. It's hard for Lu Bu to be in his thirties, all of whom are from Uncle Yuan Chang's generation. There's no way around it, it's really hot in the summer, and if there's a way to make ice, it's a great joy. In the past, it was said in winter, you can add clothes when it's cold, and no matter how hot it is in summer, you can't stand it without clothes!

Yuan Chang rolled his eyes and said indifferently: "Lord Wenhou, it's not that I'm stingy, I promised my wife this method and left it to my children and grandchildren in the future." If one day declines, their children and grandchildren can also have a skill. Of course, I am so close to Lord Wenhou that I want ice cubes to say casually, and I don't have a word about it. ”

"Yuan Taishou, it's not interesting for you to say that. ”

Lu Bu really changed his face quickly, and after listening to Yuan Chang's words, he changed his face on the spot. He also saw that Yuan Chang would not say this method. Speaking of which, whoever has such a method is kept secret, and who will sue others casually. Therefore, Lu Bu could only sulk and take the juice in front of him and drink it.

Cai Yong is old, although he also wants to know how to make ice, he will not ask Yuan Chang like Lu Bu. Anyway, if he really wants ice cubes, just ask Yuan Chang to get them.

As for Guo Jia, he is even less worried, won't Yuan Chang sue him?

"Ahh

At that moment, Guo Jia and Cai Yong also picked up the juice and drank it, and after drinking it, they suddenly exhaled a long breath with a comfortable expression. On this hot summer day, drinking a glass of cool juice is really refreshing. The more this is the case, the more depressed Lu Bu becomes, if there is a way to make ice, this juice is not drunk if you want to?

"Yuan Xian's nephew, although this juice is not as mellow as fine wine, it also has a novel charm. After Cai Yong finished drinking, he couldn't help but praise.

"The lord's thoughts are really not something we can guess. ”

"Haha!"

Yuan Chang laughed loudly, and there was no smug look. As a traverser, knowing these things, there is nothing to show off at all.

"Uncle Cai has an overreputation, this is just a small road, and it can't be put on the stage. As a man, drinking is the right thing to do, and we raise a glass to drink together, and this wine is very famous. ”

Listening to Yuan Chang's words, everyone was very curious.

First of all, the sake in front of me is different from usual. Usually the wine they drink is pale green, or transparent. The wine that Yuan Chang served this time was red, although the color was a little weird, but the taste was mellow and rich, which made people want to drink it when they smelled it.

Then, I only heard Yuan Chang say: "This wine is called red yeast wine, and it is made of glutinous rice, mountain spring water and koji. This wine is not harmful to the body, but it is good. Drinking this wine can activate the blood veins of the body, and can also refresh and relieve fatigue, quench thirst and heat down. Moreover, after drinking it for women, it can also nourish the skin and moisturize the skin, which is an excellent drink. Of course, the stamina of this wine is also very great, do not drink too much, even if you have a good amount of alcohol, after drinking too much, you will have a splitting headache, making you uncomfortable for several days. In short, there are both advantages and disadvantages, everyone just looks at it and drinks it. ”

"Hmph, Ben Wenhou doesn't believe how powerful it is. ”

Lu Bu listened to Yuan Chang's words, but he didn't believe in evil, and poured a large bowl of red yeast wine into his mouth. You must know that the bowls used today are all big bowls, unlike the wine glasses used by Yuan Chang before crossing, this bowl is afraid that there is a pound of weight. Red yeast wine is extremely soft in the mouth, and the taste is mellow, which makes people want to drink it again and again. And Lu Bu, as if he wanted to prove his drinking, drank one bowl and drank three bowls in a row. In addition to Lu Bu wanting to prove his amount of wine, there is also the fact that this red yeast wine is really good, and finally, Lu Bu also wants to explain that what Yuan Chang said is not worthy of the name.

Cai Yong was old, so he didn't want to drink like Lu Bu, but tasted it carefully. As for Guo Jia, he has always felt that Yuan Chang will not tell lies, since Yuan Chang has great stamina, it is a sure thing. At this moment, Lu Bu wanted to provoke Yuan Chang, and it was estimated that he would suffer later.

"Smack!"

Lu Bu drank three bowls of red yeast wine in a row, that is, he had three catties of wine in his stomach. However, the attack of red yeast wine was not so fast, and Lu Bu didn't feel much except that his stomach was a little hot. At that moment, he glanced at Yuan Chang and said arrogantly: "Yuan Taishou, this wine tastes good, but it is not so powerful." Yuan Taishou is the east today, so don't be a little childish, this kind of wine, even if Ben Wenhou drinks dozens of bowls, it is not a problem. ”

Yuan Chang actually didn't think about rectifying Lu Bu, really. However, if Lu Bu himself wants to put his face up, how could Yuan Chang let go of this opportunity?

At the moment, Yuan Chang was not polite, and asked his subordinates to bring barrels of hot red yeast wine, he wanted to see what would happen after Lu Bu drank more than a dozen bowls of red yeast wine.

Yuan Chang didn't know that although Lu Bu drank too much and became drunk, it also brought him a little trouble. Of course, it was only a little trouble, and in the end, this trouble turned into a blessing, but it was a blessing and a curse.

said that this red yeast wine was on the table, and everyone felt that it was extremely mellow after entering it, and as for the stamina that Yuan Chang said, everyone didn't care very much. Therefore, everyone drank happily and desperately. Fortunately, Yuan Chang had prepared a lot of red yeast wine a long time ago, otherwise it would not be enough for them to drink like this.

At the other table, that is, the table of Dian Wei, Zhao Yun and others, they are also very desperate at the moment.

"Wu Na brick face, dare to drink a bowl with me!"

Dian Wei picked up a bowl of red yeast wine and glared at Gao Shun. The taste of this red yeast wine is really good, Dian Wei is a person who loves alcohol, and when he encounters such a good wine at this moment, of course he can't help but open his mouth and drink it. And Dian Wei still remembered that Gao Shun had grabbed mutton slices with him before, and immediately went directly to Gao Shun to fight for wine.

Gao Shun rarely drank alcohol, mainly because of military discipline issues. But it doesn't mean that Gao Shun can't drink, and at this moment, Dian Wei has provoked himself, how can Gao Shun weaken his momentum.

"Wu Na black guy, what is it to drink one bowl, if you want to drink, you can have two bowls. ”

It is said that Zhang Liao and other seven athletes also looked at Gao Shun in surprise, usually Gao Shun rarely drinks, but at this moment, he didn't expect it to be so awesome. Of course, Gao Shun also remembered the previous incident of Dian Wei grabbing meat with him.

After drinking two bowls, Dian Wei shouted again: "Wu Na brick face, two bowls are fine, if it is a master, two more bowls." ”

In fact, Gao Shun's amount of wine is average, and after drinking two bowls at the moment, that is, two catties of red yeast wine, he is already a little drunk. After all, Gao Shun is not a drunkard like Dian Wei, how can he compare with Dian Wei? However, Dian Wei provoked again, of course Gao Shun refused to show weakness, and picked up the bowl and drank two big bowls. At this moment, Gao Shun's stomach has faintly begun to roll, and if he comes to two more bowls, it is estimated that he will vomit on the spot.

Fortunately, Dian Wei didn't continue to look for him to drink.

Of course, Dian Wei didn't look for Gao Shun to drink, not because Dian Wei couldn't drink it. It's because Dian Wei thinks that this red yeast wine is not as powerful as Yuan Chang said, seeing that everyone is a little childish, he is a little dissatisfied at the moment, how can the old man drink as hypocritically as a girl, and if you want to drink, you should be happy.

"Come, come, Zilong, let's have two drinks too!"

Zhao Yun's amount of wine is also good, Dian Wei came to the door, naturally he was not afraid, and he drank two bowls happily.

So, Dian Wei drank it one by one from Han Sui, Yu Ban, and Zhang Liao, commonly known as "clearing the customs". No, it's Gao Shun's turn again, Gao Shun's face suddenly became bitter, and after drinking two bowls of wine, he made an excuse and said that he was going to the thatched house, but in fact, he was looking for a corner to vomit. After drinking 60,000 wines, Gao Shun really couldn't stand it at the moment. Of course, Gao Shun was the first person present to see the power of red yeast wine, looking at the bowl and bowl of belly that Dian Wei didn't know, Gao Shun wanted to see how Dian Wei was behind the cup.

It is said that Dian Wei drank four bowls with Gao Shun before, and drank two bowls with each of the others, and they have already drunk twenty bowls. You must know that this red yeast wine is not beer, the degree of beer is only a few degrees, if the red yeast wine is buried for a long time, it will be 50 degrees, and Yuan Chang will not be buried long enough, and there will be more than 30 degrees. Dian Wei drank twenty catties, even if he was reincarnated by the god of wine, he would fall. Of course, Dian Wei naturally didn't feel that he was drunk.

Dian Wei has been standing and drinking, no, seeing the juice in front of Yuan Chang, he felt a little different from theirs, so he walked towards Yuan Chang's table with slightly shaky steps. Then, there was a little accident, just a small accident, of course!
