When Yun Zheng woke up, it was already afternoon, the courtyard was still full of drunks, the Wugou monk was snoring like thunder, Xiaolin was staggering against the wall, still holding a wine bowl in his hand, Cang'er and the hunters were also lying under the shade of the tree, and they wanted to compare with the morning, so they changed their positions. Now the busy monkey and the cow, although the wine has been steamed twice, the two teenagers are busy in high spirits, and they don't seem to feel tired.

There are already seven or eight jars under the eaves, Yun Zheng still has some regrets, after the alcohol is concentrated, fifty jars have become this, such a loss is too great.

"Husband, Hua Niang took the two jars and went back to the Lingxi Pavilion, the concubine is not easy to stop." Lu Qingqing saw that her husband didn't seem to be satisfied, so she leaned over and whispered.

Yun Zheng shook his head and said: "The wine is steamed and is intended to be sold and drunk by my own family, this is not stingy, I am just worried that the loss of steaming wine like this is too great, originally the brewing of rice wine is not too expensive to eat, but after we concentrate and extract the essence like this." Three catties of grain can produce a catty of wine is good, and now it is a problem for people in the world to eat a full stomach, so the steaming wine method of thundering and splitting the sky is baked, which is probably not a good thing for the Great Song Dynasty.

What's more, since Emperor Taizu released the military power with a cup of wine, he rewarded his old subordinates with a large amount of property, so the extravagance of the Great Song Dynasty is far beyond that of the previous dynasties, everyone is pursuing the appetite, and the door is even more in the drunken dream of anesthetizing their ambitions, I dare to say, such a mellow wine appears, it will be immediately sought after, Tokyo Bianliang City is a gold cave, if we don't take these into account, blindly do our own business, once it is imitated, the Great Song Dynasty will definitely have a food crisis. ”

Lu Qingqing smiled and said, "No! Our family just steamed some wine and sold it, why did it have to do with national affairs? However, when my husband said these words, he really had a bearing of worrying about the country and the people, and the concubine admired him. ”

"Don't be deceived by your husband's superficial words, he said them to sell them for a high price. What worries about the country and the people, they are all excuses for making money for themselves. ”

Hua Niang hurriedly walked in from outside the door, walked to the eaves and picked up two jars of wine and said while walking out: "This time I have fulfilled your wish, I have sold a jar of wine for 10,000 yuan, and someone is still rushing to ask for it." ”

Yun Zheng angrily called out to Hua Niang and said to her: "Have you heard of the so-called Xinfeng Wine Bucket Ten Thousand?" That is to say, in the Tang Dynasty, the value of a jar of wine was already ten yuan, and you just sold it to the price of the Tang Dynasty, which is not precious. Selling wine in two jars and two jars at a time is simply a loser's behavior, and smashing one jar and selling one jar is the real selling of wine. ”

Lu Qingqing was already confused, and Hua Niang looked at Yun Zheng stunned with two jars of wine under her arm. Just wait for him to continue. Make the words clear. Why is it considered to sell wine by smashing a jar and selling a jar?

"Since everyone wants our wine, it means that this thing is very precious, and the less precious things the better, and you accidentally smash a jar of wine in front of everyone. Then sell this jar of wine at a high price, and sue you, even if you sell it for fifty yuan, someone will make a move......

At first glance, you have never seen the world, you have to understand the psychology of rich people, people who can afford to drink ten yuan a jar of wine......"

Lu Qingqing was a little frightened, her eyes widened and she looked at her husband, Hua Niang was fascinated by it, this is simply the secret of the merchant, what she said is too right. Hua Niang hesitated to look at the wine she reported, and remembered that she wanted to smash it, and she was a little reluctant.

"Is it possible to change a jar and smash other wine? Do not smash this new wine. ”

Yun Zheng said to Hua Niang with disdain: "Do you want the integrity of your businessman?" How can you smash other liquor? Is this deception do you know? If you want to smash this, only the strong aroma of the spilled wine can arouse the desire of those rich people to buy. In order to completely hook up their desire to drink, when they become crazy one by one, basically no one cares about the price of wine, those boring people, who can fight with a little broken tea, don't forget that your jar of wine is the essence of wine. ”

Hua Niang rushed away in Yun Zheng's red-faced speech, she had already thought about it, and after a while, she must pretend to miss and smash a jar, and then cry and cry to increase the price!

Wugou slowly got up from the ground, shook his head and said to Yun Zheng: "Dealing with you is the sin of a poor monk!" After saying that, he staggered back to his room.

Lu Qingqing felt like a fool, she knew every word her husband said, but after these words became a sentence, she found that she couldn't understand what he was saying at all, why could she sell a jar of wine for more money instead of smashing it?

Yun Zheng saw that his wife's eyes had begun to become confused, and hurriedly took her hand and said: "You don't have to understand these indiscriminate things, you just need to know that it is not a legitimate way, businessmen, they are full of copper smell in pursuit of the greatest interests, they are willing to do anything for the sake of interests, you just look at Hua Niang, these broken things are not touched by our family, you still work with Lan Lan and bacon to run the silk reeling workshop, and the money earned there is clean." ”

"But very little! The concubine is busy for a month and does not make as much money as you make in two days......" Lu Qingqing was a little aggrieved, and when she heard her husband talk about the silk reeling workshop, her eyes were a little red: "I am also very tired, Lan Lan is tired and sick, bacon can't eat or sleep well, some of the women in the workshop have the skin on their shoulders worn out, and some have to do heavy work when they come to menstruation." ”

"This is not the same, you opened a silk reeling workshop, feeding hundreds of people, each of them has a home, which means that you have fed more than 100 families, sometimes making money is not to see how much money you get, but to see whether you have contributed to the world, you have helped the Great Song Dynasty to feed so many people, it is already amazing, your husband and I admire it very much, you look at these jars of wine, what have you done? We finished all the work while playing, although we made a lot of money, but it was harmful to the country, no benefit, except for the rich people to satisfy their appetites, the fart was not used, and there was no way to compare with the silk reeling workshop.

My wife is a good woman, a good person, people like your husband and Hua Niang are actually moths of the Great Song Dynasty, and they should be despised, we always need a good person in our family to be the top door bar, this person is Mrs. You, no one else. ”

Using socioeconomics to coax his wife is naturally caught, no matter how smart Lu Qingqing is, he can't resist the impact of these theories from later generations, Lu Qingqing thought about it hard, as if it was really like that, and immediately burst into tears, and a sense of pride for the country and the people arose.

Seeing that his wife was happy, Yun Zheng was also happy, the social economics he studied finally had a place to use, this was the first time he used such knowledge after leaving school, it was not in vain to study hard back then, any knowledge will actually have its use.

The monkey pulled two jars of wine in a carriage and sent it to Lu Weng, specifically explaining that this wine was too strong and not suitable for the elderly to drink, so he asked the old man to taste it fresh, and it was best to drink it with other wine when drinking, otherwise he would get drunk.

Han Niu also drove the carriage to Mr. Peng Li's house, and said the same thing to Mr. Peng Li, but Yun Zheng basically didn't have much hope, neither of these two was the kind of person who could listen to the advice of others, he just hoped that they wouldn't get too drunk.

When Su Shi arrived at Yun's house, he limped, and only then did he ask, Su Shi cried, sobbing and choking and said that he brought two large bowls of wine to his father last night, and planned to honor his father, who knew that his father was drunk and had not gotten up yet, and he was also whipped by his mother with a bamboo board, and his buttocks were swollen and painful.

Yun Zheng laughed, and asked Yun Er to take Su Shi to find bacon, and take the wine to rub some on Su Shi's buttocks, so that it would not hurt soon, and it would be cold, this is the secret recipe, which comes from Yun Zheng's previous experience.

After the Yun family's wine was steamed, Yun Zheng steamed out a little alcohol with three jars of high wine, this thing should be regarded as alcohol, anyway, Yun Zheng didn't have the courage to try it with his mouth, no matter how much, seventy degrees is estimated to be there, and the spirits of later generations are similar to stuffing donkeys, this thing is not for people to drink, and people who can control this thing at least need to have the same good appetite as donkeys.

I found a glazed black porcelain jar and sealed it with wax, if the seal is not good, it will soon be dried up, so it will be all in vain, I went to see the bark soaked in the water tank, each piece of bark is full of water, Yun Zheng asked the servants to take out the bark to control the moisture, put it under the moon to dry it, and wait until tomorrow to go to the oil mill and start to squeeze out all the white juice inside with a wooden wedge, and the squeezed dregs are steamed and boiled again, and then squeezed, after the juice is dried, it becomes a gray-brown hard lump, Finally, these gray-brown lumps are dissolved in the alcohol, filtered more than a dozen times, and finally the alcohol is volatilized, and the rest is pure Suhexiang. The Suhexiang made in this way is much stronger than those made by the Great Cannibals with their own secret methods, because they have no alcohol.

Su Shi followed Yun Zheng very seriously to learn how to steam wine, and now he also wants to learn how to make Su Hexiang, Yun Zheng remembered the suffering of this unlucky child in Huangzhou in the future, and felt that it would not hurt to teach him a little craft first.

This is the most beautiful era, but also the worst era, Su Shi, who is serious about learning the craft, would never have imagined that one day he would recite such a tragic song: "Since I came to Huangzhou, I have passed three cold foods, and I want to cherish spring every year, and spring is not to be regretted." This year, it has been bitter rain, and the moon and autumn are bleak. Lying and smelling begonia flowers, mud swallow branch snow. Secretly stealing it, the middle of the night is really powerful. He Shu is a sick young man, and his illness has turned white. ”

The second said: "Chunjiang wants to enter the house, and the rain is coming." The hut is like a fishing boat, misty in the clouds. Cook cold vegetables in the air, and burn wet reeds in the stove. That knows that it is a cold food, but see the bird bit paper. The monarch's gate is nine deep, and the tomb is thousands of miles. I also want to cry and be poor, and I can't afford to blow the ashes."

This is famous, Yun Zheng doesn't want this little boy to take such a path again, it is too miserable and too ruthless.
