Since returning to Jiangjiatan, Zhao Yongzhong has often sighed. I don't know if it was influenced by him, but within two days, Jiang Shi also began to sigh.

Zhao Sanniang, the filial daughter, was busy asking what was going on, but the mouths of these two honest people were like mussel shells, and they couldn't pry them open, so anxious that she stomped her feet, but she was helpless.

Zhao Siniang saw it in her eyes and deeply felt that her father and mother were all disease-free**, and she was purely uncomfortable with herself, and she was very disapproving. She didn't bother to pay attention to them, and continued to bury herself in her money-making business.

When it comes to her business, Zhao Siniang sometimes even wonders if God has opened a hang for her, because everything is so smooth, incredibly smooth.

Don't say anything else, let's just talk about dealing with the government. Even in the previous life, if a foreigner without any background wanted to open a more formal restaurant, he had to run from this department and that institution, and his legs were often thin, and the business license was not yet available. But in this life, in the world of "the eight-character yamen is open to the south, and there is no reason to come in without money", no matter what Zhao Siniang's family wants to do through the government, it can almost be done as quickly as possible. made Zhao Siniang, a guy who was still thinking about how to drill the camp before coming to Fucheng, all kinds of ideas in his heart were useless. Because there is no chance to deal with her family at all, let alone the preferences of the officials, there is no need to inquire about the surnames of others.

Zhao Siniang originally thought that the Su family was secretly helping, but later she gradually found out that this was not the case, and the government seemed to take special care of her family. Especially after successfully obtaining a liquor license, this idea became stronger and stronger.

I wanted to open a food shop in Jiangjiatan. At that time, Zhao Siniang had the idea of brewing some rice wine to sell, but as soon as it was proposed, it was sternly rejected by the well-informed old man Jiang. It wasn't until then that she knew that she was here to make or sell wine. Permission must be obtained in advance, and if it is smuggled and sold, it is a felony.

However, Zhao Siniang knew very well that winemaking was profitable, and it was a pity to give up this financial road, so she didn't give up and asked Jiang Helianzi, who was quite familiar with the law, to know how to get permission.

There are many kinds of raw materials for sake brewing, but the main thing is grain. This is an important material related to the national economy and people's livelihood. It is precisely because of the huge profits that can be reaped by winemaking, in order to prevent large winemakers from hoarding a large amount of grain for sake of profit, and even affecting the food that the people rely on for survival. Successive imperial courts would adopt administrative measures to strictly control them. It is said that in the previous dynasty, a strict liquor monopoly system was implemented, and only the government could make sake and sell it. It was not until after the establishment of the Yan State that the threshold was gradually lowered. The imperial court began to allow private brewing and private sales. All you need to do is buy a license from the government. And pay a certain amount of liquor tax according to the sales situation.

However, this is Youzhou, and the threshold for winemaking is higher than anywhere else in Yan Kingdom. One is that it is close to the Yuan Kingdom, which is eyeing the tiger, and it is an important military town. In order to reduce the consumption of food and put more supplies into preparation for war, it is necessary to reduce the scale of brewing. The second is that the people here are fierce, and the imperial court is worried that the people here will drink and cause trouble, and even gather to make trouble and cause mutinies, so they do not want the wine to circulate in large quantities in the market. So. The imperial court strictly restricted the issuance of liquor permits in the area. In other words, I want to engage in the brewing industry in Youzhou. Money alone is not enough, there is also a way to get a very limited number of permits.

Hearing these words at that time, Zhao Siniang immediately stopped this heart.

However, it has been too smooth recently, so Zhao Siniang held the idea of giving it a try and submitted an application to the government in her own name. Who thinks, it passed the next day! It actually passed!

When Zhao Siniang got the hot permit, her first reaction was not surprise, but fright, and she was careful that her liver was fluttering.

It was Jiang Helianzi who comforted her on the side and said: "Siniang, relax your heart, do what you want to do, go where you want to go, and become the person you want to be." You, you can. ”

When it came to this, she almost didn't say directly, "Even if you poke a hole in the sky of Yan Kingdom, someone will plug it for you."

Although Zhao Siniang didn't know where Jiang Helianzi got so much confidence, these words did successfully appease and encourage her, so that she was frightened and scattered to come back to her soul and began to seriously ponder her winery business.

If you are planning to open a sake brewery, you must first decide on the type of sake brewed. There are many types of liquor, such as rice wine, fruit wine, white wine, and medicinal wine. Although they are all types of alcohol, the ingredients used are different, and the processes are very different. Only by deciding what kind of sake to brew can the sake brewery be built.

At present, most of the liquor circulating in Youshi is rice wine, and the most popular of them is the burning knife. Some people may find it strange that the name "burning knife" is a high degree of liquor when you hear it! How can it be rice wine with a low degree of content? Are you mistaken?

I remember that Zhao Siniang bought two small jars of burning knives in Changle Town, which cost her a hundred dollars. One hundred big money, which was not a small amount for Zhao Siniang, who had not made a fortune at that time, was still a little painful in her heart when she took out the money. Zhao Siniang, who has always liked to take things for granted, looked at the two jars of Jingui wine called "Burning Knife", and thought that even if it couldn't reach the height of Daqu wine, at least it had to be a white bar at the level of a two-pot head?

It wasn't until she opened the mud seal on the wine jar and smelled the faint aroma of wine that Zhao Siniang realized that she was preconceived and had put the cognition of her previous life in this life, so that there was a deviation from reality. The burnt knife is not a high-grade liquor obtained by distillation at all, but actually a fermented liquor. It seems that the method is to brew the sake for a few more days, and then filter out the lees inside, but as you can imagine, the degree is definitely not high. According to Zhao Siniang's estimate, with its degree, it will not be killed more than 20 degrees. She really couldn't imagine how someone could be so shameless as to name this kind of thing that could not be "burned" no matter how much she drank. Feeling deceived, she was indignant and said: Is this a fraud?

Later, as she gradually learned about the world, she learned that there are actually high-grade wines, but those are either from the few big wineries in Yanjing City, or from Ningguo, all of which are expensive, and they are not sold in the general second-class wine shops in Youzhou. For the little people, they feel content to be able to drink wine with a degree of burning knives, and they really don't dare to expect too much.

Zhao Siniang has always taken the popular route, and she does not plan to be an exception in the wine area. In this case, she intends to cater to the needs of the masses and specialize in the so-called "burning knives". (To be continued.) )
