Chapter 41 Daughter Red

The girl sat at the door, her eyes falling on the ancient books that she could never finish, intellectual and quiet.

The eyes of the rest of the people were fixed on the wine urn, and the fiery appearance seemed to ignite the surrounding air.

After a long time, Su Ren took a long breath, slowly shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, the wine paste is not sold!" ”

Hearing the refusal, Shopkeeper Li pulled off a goatee, calmed down, and continued to raise the price: "Fifteen million, little brother, the wine cream is worth so much, the price can't be too high." ”

He Shen stood aside with his hands in his hands, his gaze swept over a few people, and a smile appeared on his round face.

His throat was dry, his muscles were tense, and he trembled slightly in his movements.

Whether it's to increase money, or to improve ability.

Money, Su Ren has, although it is not much, is enough for him to enjoy a good material life.

What about capabilities? Species pursue a strong nature! No one can stop it!

Thinking of the ghost of the cloud bed, look at the little red, bloodshot eyes, as long as the ability is enhanced, what kind of money can't be earned.

Even if he can't use his ability to make money, as long as time permits, with He Shen's rich knowledge of appreciation, his own wood carving skills are enough for Su Ren to break out of a big sky in Panjiayuan.

Money is easy to earn, but wine cream is hard to find.

God knows when the next time you'll come across wine cream!

Thinking of this, Su Ren must have said to Shopkeeper Li seriously: "Shopkeeper Li, the wine paste is really not for sale. ”

The tone was firm as iron, and his expression was serious, and there was no room for negotiation.

"Hey!"

As soon as he heard this, the expectant eyes of the shopkeeper Li were eclipsed, and he waved his hand weakly, and said: "It's the old man who is greedy, and he can support the liquor paste of a large brand distillery, and no one will take it lightly." ”

Stand up for a winery brand? Or is it large? So hanging? Swallowing the spit, moistening his throat a little tight, Yin Duobao exclaimed in disbelief: "Uncle Li, you can't be mistaken, this wine cream can be so valuable." ”

"I'd rather be wrong."

Good things are close in front of me, but not their own, how depressed the mood is, Li shopkeeper said with a wry smile: "Twenty years ago, when I was still a professor at Qing University, a number of Song Dynasty cultural relics were unearthed in Kaifeng, I was fortunate to be invited to become one of the cultural relics appraisers, among the many cultural relics, there are five well-preserved wine creams.

The wine paste was useless, stored for many years, in terms of the situation at that time, there was no value of preservation and collection at all, so it was decided to clean up and scrub, leaving only a clean wine urn, when the four altars were cleaned, and when one altar was left, it was stopped by a tourist passing by, and the owner of the small winery who came to see the excitement was stopped, and bought it at a high price of 1.3 million.

You know, it was 1.3 million yuan 20 years ago, and the owner of the small distillery mortgaged the factory and sold the house for these ointments, and almost bankrupted his family and his wife were separated. ”

Yin Duobao asked suspiciously: "Uncle Li, since no one knows him, and he treats the wine paste as a waste product, then he just has to leave, why did he spend a lot of money to buy it." ”

Shopkeeper Li said: "Because he doesn't dare." ”

"Don't dare?"

What do you mean? Several people looked at each other, not knowing why, so they listened to Shopkeeper Li continue: "Yes, because I don't dare, I'm afraid that we will trouble him later." ”

Shopkeeper Li stretched out his little thumb, gestured a little bit of fingernails, and said: "This is a little bit, just use such a little bit of wine paste, add it to the raw materials of winemaking, you can turn the ten tons of liquor newly out of the pot into the top excellent wine, the taste is mellow and delicious, soft and thick, the aftertaste is free, and it will be raised by a few grades in an instant.

And the owner of the small distillery, with these ointments, also made a name for himself and turned a small regional distillery into a well-known enterprise in the country. ”

No one can deny the huge profits from tobacco and alcohol, and there is an old saying that the tobacco and alcohol tax supports the country's million-strong army and all kinds of high-tech modern military equipment.

Yin Duobao looked at the dark brown wine urn with greedy eyes, and asked as if sleepwalking, "Uncle Li, what ······ What is that little distillery called? ”

Uncle Li stroked his goatee and said softly, "Kendo Spring!" ”

"What!"

Yin Duobao and Su Ren exclaimed irrepressibly, Jian Dao Chun, propaganda advertisements can be seen everywhere, Su Ren has even seen and tasted, in the product introduction records, Jian Dao Chun has a history of 1,500 years of winemaking, can really develop, to reach today's market value of tens of billions of large groups, is indeed in the past 20 years or so.

A jar of wine cream, creating a brand, and developing into a large-scale enterprise, the value contained in it is simply incalculable.

Even if you are small, you also know that Kendo Spring Liquor is much richer than your own family, and there is no comparison between the two at all.

Su Ren now just needs to run the wine urn in his arms, run to the bank with a smoke, and find a thick safe to lock up.

Yin Duobao's jealous little eyes were on fire, this was a transaction that happened in his shop, this was a transaction that he personally pushed out, blind, he actually gave the monstrous wealth to others, he was wronged in his heart, and he really wanted to cry.

Yin Duobao glanced at Su Ren and said maliciously: "Uncle Li, you must have read it wrong, how many viruses and bacteria should be in the thousand-year-old wine cream, if you drink it in the stomach, it is not uncommon for a dead person to die." ”

Shopkeeper Li smiled dumbly, how could he not know the jealousy of the fat man, and asked, "Do you know yeast?" ”

Yin Duobao nodded, and Su Ren was thoughtful on the side.

"Every famous pastry chef must have a piece of yeast stored for decades in his hand, put a little when making the dough, make up a piece, although there are many bacteria, acidic, but harmless to the human body, but beneficial, this kind of pastry will have a good taste, good taste."

Shopkeeper Li looked at the dark brown wine urn and said, "The effect of wine paste is the same as yeast, and if you add a little to the brewing ingredients, the result will be very different." ”

"In the Song Dynasty thousands of years ago, there were no chemical materials now, what kind of plasticizers, preservatives, and some messy things in liquor were all gone, pure distillation, pure grain, 100 catties of grain and 7 catties of wine, as long as it was stored well, there were no defects, and it was not afraid to be stored for a long time."

Xiaoxiao bit her fingers on the side and asked crisply: "Grandpa, the uncle just said that it is called daughter red, so is it daughter red." ”

"Yes, of course."

Shopkeeper Li smiled "hehe", touched his little head and said: "The invention of distillation and liquor making in the Song Dynasty, at the beginning, the taste was spicy, and the hall was like a fire, in terms of the situation at that time and the taste of China, it was soft, soft and light, and the drink was low-alcohol wine, which was similar to the current Japanese sake, about a dozen degrees or so, and the spirits were indeed a little out of taste, and after the general brewing was completed, it would be sold to the cold places in the north such as Daliao and Jinguo. And gave this spirit a name, "burnt knife".

With the passage of time, it was found that after being stored for many years, the taste of the "burnt knife" would become heavy and sweet, and the aftertaste would be long in the mouth, and the quality would immediately improve by several grades, not inferior to the fine wines of the time, so gradually there was a habit of storing spirits.

Marrying relatives, marrying daughters, for life events, entertaining relatives and friends, to use the best wine, the best food, and this kind of storage for many years, the popular "burning knife" on the wine table.

When getting married, the woman should wear a red wedding dress, the man should wear a red silk flower on his chest, the bedding is red, the window paper candle is still red, marry a good wife, marry a filial daughter, the days are prosperous, in order to ask for an auspicious name, "burn the knife" on the wedding wine table, the name "daughter red" is the most suitable.

In the end, the custom was cultivated, no matter whether a boy or a girl was born, a few jars of spirits would be brewed and buried in the ground, and when the wedding was opened, the name of "daughter red" gradually replaced the original "burning knife". ”

Xiao Xiao said with a surprised face: "Wow······ It turns out that the name "Daughter Red" came from like this. ”
