There is no doubt that Du Kang is regarded as the ancestor of wine, but there are different theories about Du Kang and his person.

The most widely circulated is that Du Kang was the minister of the Yellow Emperor, who was in charge of grain reserves. In a certain year, when the grain was harvested and the grain storage could not be stored, Du Kang found that there were big trees in the woods that several people could not hold, and the middle of the trees was empty, so he stored the grain in the tree hole. After a long time, I found that there were goats and wild boars under the big tree where the grain was hidden, and they couldn't wake up, and then they saw that the grain in the tree hole had all turned into water that exuded a clear aroma, and it tasted fragrant and sweet, and it was very comfortable to be dizzy, so Du Kang brought the wine to the Yellow Emperor to taste, and then deliberately studied the method of making wine.

Another theory is based on historical records, Du Kang, also known as Shaokang, was the monarch of the Xia Dynasty. Dayu's grandson Taikang was absurd and unreasonable, and was crusaded by Houyi, supporting his son Zhongkang, and later Houyi's cronies Han Xun rebelled, Zhongkang's son Xiang ran to the territory of the Yu family, and Xiang's son was Shaokang. When Shaokang was a child, he herded sheep for a living, and often hid leftovers in tree hollows, and the leftovers fermented naturally and became wine. Later, Shaokang corrected his surname, and with the help of Youyu's family, he finally defeated Han Xun and restored the throne, which is called "Shaokang Zhongxing" in history.

There is another theory, which is based on a local county chronicle of the Qing Dynasty, saying that Du Kang's character Zhongyong was a native of the Han Dynasty and was good at making wine. However, the history of Chinese wine is obviously not only in the Han Dynasty, the Xia Dynasty Luoyang has appeared wine vessels, the Shang Dynasty capital city song has the legend of "wine pond meat forest", to the Zhou Dynasty, the ruler believes that there are many reasons for the demise of Yin Shang, alcoholism and morality is an important one, and the Duke of Zhou also promulgated the "Wine Decree". So the so-called Han Dynasty Du Kang is more out of the hype of the Baishui Distillery......

Regardless of the origin of the ancient Du Kang, and the modern Du Kang wine, there are three distilleries that use the same trademark. The first to build a factory was Yichuan Dukang, followed by Ruyang Dukang and Baishui Dukang. The first two are on both sides of the Yi River, and the latter is far away in Guanzhong, and the three of them all use the Du Kang trademark, and they beat their heads to the blood, and finally make trouble with the Ministry of Commerce, and finally they are still with the mud, and even Du Kang Liquor, one of the top ten famous liquors of the year, the brand value has shrunk so badly that no one drinks it at all......

"Old man, there are too many legends about you, I want to ask, which dynasty are you originally from?"

There is a small room next to the cash register on the second floor dedicated to the statue of the patriarch, and Lin Yi invited Du Kang into the room to talk - after all, although others can't see Du Kang, and he doesn't have to open his mouth to speak, it's not a matter of standing at the kitchen door in a daze.

"Hehe, guess what?" Du Kang touched his round belly and smiled.

Lin Yile said: "I guess your old man is either in charge of grain for the Yellow Emperor, or he has been a cook in the Youyu clan. ”

"Haha, you little devil is not small, even I dare to laugh at it?" Du Kang laughed.

"Don't dare, don't dare. Lin Yi hurriedly smiled.

Du Kang really had a big belly, and he turned his head to look at the room disapprehantly, and then looked at Yi Ya's portrait and said, "Yi Ya ghost, don't come out to talk yet?"

Yi Ya on the portrait "lived", squeezed out a wry smile, and said, "Are you really going to your old man?"

"Hehe, you little ghost, do you really think you can hide it from me?" Du Kang smiled.

"It's not that we want to hide it from you, your old man's life is much better than ours, Lin Xiaoyou's energy is limited, and now he has just entered the industry, so we just thought about waiting for a while, he is almost done, and then introduce your old man to him...... Yi Ya said with a bitter face.

"You little ghost will coax me, a spiritual talent like him is rare in a hundred years, the old man knows about it, of course he has to grab the front row!" Du Kang said, "I don't know your careful thoughts, it's just that I'm afraid that I will turn his hotel into a tavern and rob you of your incense!"

Lin Yi listened, his eyes blinking. He has always been a little worried, if the ancestors can find their own spokespersons, can they also find others? What if the speed at which they recruit believers makes them dissatisfied, and they fire their own squid? Now Du Kang's two sentences have made him understand a little, and he is a rare spiritual talent in a hundred years, they can't fire themselves, and because they have limited energy alone, the ancestors still have to "grab the front row"?

"Old man, I really didn't mean that......" Yi Ya said with a bitter face.

"It's good if you don't have it. Du Kang stroked his stomach with one hand and his beard with the other, and said with a smug smile, "Lin Xiaoyou, I also made an agreement with you, and the conditions are the same as them, how about it?"

"Two Ancestral Masters," Lin Yi arched his hand at Du Kang and Yi Ya, and said, "Thank you for taking a fancy to me and letting me be your mortal apostle, but my energy is limited, my ability is not strong, and I often feel that my heart is not enough." Now with the words of Master Du Kang, I'm afraid I'm even more powerless......"

"Hehe, what are you doing with your little ghost? Have you forgotten that we can read minds?" said Du Kang with a smile.

"Uh......" Lin Yi was embarrassed.

"Don't you just want to get more benefits and take more convenience? The old man is not as stingy as they are. Du Kang said, raising his hand and waving, Lin Yi felt that his hand was sinking, but there were two more things.

One is a portrait scroll of the patriarch, and the other is a bright red wine gourd.

"This is not an ordinary wine gourd, the wine in it is the heavenly elixir, the gods can increase their mana when they drink it, and ordinary people can prolong their lives if they drink it. And this gourd can produce this elixir by itself, and it will always be inexhaustible. Du Kang said, "Of course, with your current cultivation, you can only produce one drop a day now, if you can help me recruit more believers, the output will increase in the future, hehe......"

Du Kang smiled, threw Lin Yi a "you know" look, and his figure turned slightly, and suddenly there was no shadow......

Lin Yi looked at the Yi Ya on the statue again, and it also returned to its original state, and he couldn't say that he could smile bitterly - this Master Du Kangzu was so treacherous, this is obviously a "prize sale......

Come on, let's try this elixir first.

Lin Yi first put the idol scroll on the incense table, took the red gourd and looked at it carefully, but found that the bright red of the gourd was not the paint, but the natural color. The gourd is not very large, and it is a little more than a pound of wine at most, but at this time there is only a small half-pot of wine in it.

Pulling out the stopper, a strong smell of wine suddenly came out, Lin Yi sniffed deeply, but he suddenly felt refreshed, as if he suddenly walked out of the room with turbid air, smelled the fresh air after the rain, and his mind felt much clearer.

didn't bother to look for the wine glass, so he took a sip directly at the gourd's mouth, and Lin Yi was suddenly intoxicated......
