"Impurities? Blemishes? However, almost all of our Dayue Dynasty made wine like this, and our family was one of the best, and no one had ever said that it was not delicious. β
Wu Xinlian heard it, but said with some puzzlement.
Fermentation method, the body is the Dayue Dynasty, and even the most traditional and authentic wine-making method in the entire ancient world, there has never been any other wine-making method spread outside, thousands of years, for thousands of years, it is like this, even if there are some top wines, it is also under the precipitation of the years, so that the quality of the wine can reach an amazing Cheng dΓΉ.
At this moment, Wu Mu actually said that there is another wine-making method, which can make a wine that is far more precious and rare than it is now. How could this not surprise her, puzzled.
"The distillation method can precipitate and filter the impurities in the wine, and burn it with a fierce fire, and the wine in the pot will start, volatilize, and become the essence of the wine, which will finally return to the wine jar along the bamboo tube, so that the essence of the wine is obtained. Not only does the wine become more mellow. Moreover, the purity of the liquor is higher. More easily intoxicating. β
Wu Mu said with a light smile.
Wu Xinlian is his sister, and the matter of rerefining the family's wine brewing needs to rely on Xinlian, and he has to put most of his mind on cultivation to deal with the next life-and-death duel.
What's more, once the fine liquor made by this distillation method spreads, if it does not have enough strength, it will not only not be a blessing for the samurai, but may attract disaster.
Therefore, it is destined that he cannot stay at home all the time, but must keep going out to find opportunities.
"In this way, it can really make the wine more mellow and more intoxicating?" When Wu Xinlian heard this, there was also some excitement and curiosity on his little face.
She knows that those wines that have been precipitated for decades are often much higher than the newly brewed ones in terms of the concentration of the wine, and it is those noble families and royal families who regard it as a treasure, if they can really make the concentration of the wine higher, then their own wine can definitely conquer the entire Longmen Town, and even drinkers from far and near.
Now, just by steaming it again, you can get a 10 or 100 times better brew than before.
This kind of thing, in her opinion, has an incredible feeling.
"Hehe, I pity you until the wine is distilled, and you will know that what my brother said is true. This is something I stumbled upon. Wu Mu smiled indifferently and didn't say much, no matter how much he said, it was not as convincing as tasting it himself.
Call! Call!!
The dry firewood burns rapidly, emitting a steady stream of heat.
Wine, which is a volatile object, is now under heating, and suddenly, at an astonishing speed, the cowhide covering the cauldron is quickly filled with a stream of wine vapor, rapidly expanding, bulging, but under the impermeable nature of cowhide.
These wine smells, the roots cannot penetrate the cowhide, and escape.
However, in the cowhide, there is still an outlet, which is the bamboo tube.
After being unable to break through the cowhide upwards, the pure wine immediately surged away quickly along the bamboo tube.
Crash!!
When the wine was poured into the bamboo tube, Wu Mu had already brought a bucket of cold well water to the side, picked up the bucket, and quickly poured it on the bamboo tube, and the cold well water instantly made the bamboo tube become cold. The smell of wine that poured into the bamboo tube turned into drops of liquor after being cold, and flowed down the bamboo tube towards the wine jar at the other end.
As the fire in the stove continued.
It didn't take long for me to see that the jar was still filled with wine.
Immediately, Wu Mu took an empty wine jar over again and replaced the full wine jar.
Time passed quietly in the process of boiling wine with fire. The body of the wine is easy to volatile, as long as it is slightly heated, it will turn into wine gas at an astonishing speed, although it is a whole pot, full of ten jars of wine, but when the wine in the pot, completely evaporated, it is only half an hour has passed.
And behold, there were already six jars of wine at their feet.
The rich aroma of wine naturally escapes along the wine jar.
"Ten jars of wine have become six jars, and four jars are missing. However, this wine is so fragrant. Wu Xinlian stood up and looked at the six jars full of wine jars in front of him, five of which were still all resealed, and there was one altar left, Wu Mu did not seal the altar immediately, so that Wu Xinlian could see the wine in the altar with his own eyes.
"Although the four altars are missing, the essence of the four altars is condensed in these six altars, and the value of the four altars is not even worth a fraction of the value of the six jars of wine."
Wu Mu glanced at the wine in the altar and said with a confident smile on his face.
"This wine is so clear and crystal clear, I have seen other people store it for ten years, and it is not as clear as the one in front of us, not even a trace of impurities. Moreover, the aroma of the wine is several times or ten times richer than before. β
Wu Xinlian's eyes widened, and he looked at the wine in front of him in disbelief.
If you compare the previous wine with the wine in front of you, you don't even deserve to lift your shoes. This is a peerless treasure, but such a wine is actually brewed so simply just now?
"Hehe, little sister, you take a sip and see how the wine made by distillation differs from our previous wine." Wu Mu smiled indifferently, then took out a small bamboo tube for peony wine, and scooped out a small glass of wine in the wine jar.
Pour it into a bowl next to it.
I poured two bowls in a row.
"Brother, then I'll drink it." Wu Xinlian's little face was a little red with excitement, he reached out and picked up a bowl of wine, opened his mouth, and poured a small sip into his mouth with a grunt.
The martial arts family has always made wine, whether it is Wu Mu or Wu Xinlian, they have grown up drinking since they were children, and their own alcohol consumption is not small at all, don't look at Wu Xinlian is a girl, when she drinks wine, even if she is an eight-foot man, she may not be able to drink her. Wu Mu was not afraid that she would get drunk.
picked up the bowl in front of him casually, opened his mouth and took a sip, this sip also made Wu Mu's face show a look of satisfaction, and nodded secretly: "Okay!" Although it is only a rough distillation, the concentration of this liquor should be about 15 or 6 degrees, and if it is distilled twice or three times, it should be able to increase the concentration of the liquor to more than 20 degrees. β
"It's a spicy wine, the taste of this wine has no impurities, there is a kind of mellow in the taste, there is no jerky before, and although the throat is a little spicy after just drinking it, there is a floating pleasure after the spicy. Straight to the head. β
And at this moment, after drinking a few sips of new wine in succession, Wu Xinlian's little face became a little red on the spot, and his eyes revealed an incredible joy and joy.
This wine is better than the ten-year-old wine she has drunk before, and the concentration is even higher.
She had never heard of such wine.
You must know that the price of ten years of aging is sold in a pot, according to the size of a normal wine jug, a pot of wine, that is half a catty. But the price of a pot of wine is a hundred black iron coins. And a jar of wine, which can probably hold wine, is ten catties, that is to say, a jar of wine can be sold for a sky-high price of 2,000 black iron coins.
Roots are not something that ordinary people can drink.
Two thousand black iron coins, if they were bronze coins, would be twenty bronze coins.
The black iron coin is only the lowest currency, on the black iron coin, it is the bronze coin, the bronze coin, which is already the currency that circulates among the monks, and the black iron coin, which is the most common currency in circulation in the world.
On the exchange of huΓ n, a hundred black iron coins can be exchanged for a bronze coin. The ratio of the two to huΓ n is a hundredfold difference.
Wu Xinlian could feel that the wine he had just drunk was definitely better than the ten-year vintage, and the quality was higher, and one jar of ten-year fine wine could sell for two thousand black iron coins, and his own wine could definitely be sold for the same price or even better.
"Ten jars of wine can make six jars of new wine, but there are five hundred jars in the cellar, if new wine is brewed, it is three hundred jars, each jar of two thousand black iron coins, three hundred jars, how much does it cost? My mother was saved. β
Wu Xinlian blinked viciously and muttered a quick calculation. Although there is no way to calculate how much money can be obtained for a while, the money to buy the heart tonic pill for my mother is more than enough.
"Little sister, don't worry, although this wine is good, but once it spreads, it will definitely make the entire Longmen Town, although there are imperial laws, but people's hearts are sinister, no matter how strict the laws are, it is difficult to stop the hearts of the people, the value of new wine, how can it be hidden from those who have a heart, once there is a bad heart, with our strength, I am afraid it will be difficult to stop. There is no rush to release new sake. Moreover, for the time being, we samurai must not come forward to sell alcohol. β
Wu Mu's eyes flashed with a trace of essence, with his experience, how could he not imagine how amazing the sensation caused to Longmen Town would be once the new wine spread, and when the time came, I was afraid that those families would not turn a blind eye. It will definitely put the samurai on the cusp of the storm. It will sink at any time.
Rushing to release new wine is looking for death.
He didn't dare to risk his family's life on the safety of 1/10,000th of it.
"Brother!! However, what about my mother's illness. β
When Wu Xinlian heard this, a trace of anxiety suddenly appeared on his face. If you can't sell alcohol, you won't be able to get enough money, and if you don't have money, there's no way to buy Heart Tonifying Pills.
"Don't worry, of course, you have to sell wine, but we don't sell it ourselves. I will deal with these things, and the distilled liquor will still continue, and the next thing for you is to brew all the wine in the cellar into the new liquor now. β
Wu Mu said calmly, with a confident look, it seems that he has already made a plan.
"Brother!! Are you going to get out? β
Wu Xinlian is also clever, from Wu Mu's words, he immediately heard a trace of other meanings, and hurriedly stared at him and asked.
