Chapter 10: New Wine

Speaking of winemaking, Gao Yuan is no stranger, in the previous life, almost every family in the village where he is located has a small workshop, local method of winemaking, and then sell the wine to a large manufacturer, the big factory is then sub-packaged, labeled, the cost price is only a few yuan of wine, can be sold for hundreds of thousands of yuan, almost every household in the village knows how to make koji wine, Gao Yuan also worked in these workshops, until the age of sixteen out of this village, it is considered to say goodbye to it, other things Gao Yuan does not know too much, but koji winemaking, He's all too familiar. The wine of this era is too difficult to drink, Gao Yuan believes that if he really does the wine business, it will not take a few years to keep it, he can defeat the Wu family and dominate the wine market, but of course this is just thinking about it, cutting off people's financial roads, not digging people's ancestral graves, others are going to work hard, and they are still honest, otherwise the second is a human being, and he has not yet made great achievements, and it is too cost-effective to kill people first, and it will also ruin God's favor for himself.

Get some wine yourself, and you should satisfy your tongue.

Zhang Yiyi was quick with his hands and feet, and early the next morning, he found several masons, and he was busy in a side room, and Gao Yuan, he began to make wine koji by himself, after listening to Zhang Yi's words, he had a heart eye, winemaking, wine koji is the key, or do it yourself to do it well, otherwise this jishu flows out to let others know, and it will inevitably offend the Wu family.

Material selection, mold making, stepping on koji, mildew, mildew, damp fire, fire, post-fire period, zuihou is to raise koji. The most difficult thing to control in the meantime is the temperature.,Now there's no thermometer.,Gao Yuan can only rely on his own feelings.,When I used to help in the village,Those old people rely entirely on their feelings to do these things.,But Gao Yuan doesn't have this jishu.,You can only rely on jishu in three.,Seven points rely on luck.

Gao Yuan's steaming retort to make wine is not big, and the masons finished their work in one day, but Gao Yuan's koji will take at least ten days to bear fruit, Gao Yuan locked himself in the house where the koji was made, and just told Zhang Yi to prepare the charcoal stove and use it at any time.

During this period, the Ye family of three still came over to help every day as usual, but Gao Yuanshen was mysterious, which made Ye Jinger and Ye Feng very curious, Ye Feng was not sensible, and Gao Yuan did not hide from Ye Jinger, only said that he wanted to make some wine for himself, and Ye Jinger laughed when he heard it, and he was not a young neighbor with Gao Yuan, and he had never heard that Gao Yuan could make wine, but it was just that this guy's previous squishy breath had flares up again.

Gao Yuan doesn't reason with her, facts speak louder than words, wait until the day when she brews the wine, and then take a good look at her jokes, Ye Jing'er is now a day a day, good food, good food and good nutrition, this woman who used to be as thin as Chai He is now rapidly plump, in Zhang Yi's words, it looks like a woman who wants to have a chest and a butt, and a woman with an ass and an ass, the key is that Cui'er has a chest and an ass, but the whole person is inevitably too wide, if it is split into two, it looks slim, and it is not so good-looking when synthesized into one, Ye Jing'er is different, in Gao Yuan's words, the current Ye Jing'er is to have a look, to have a figure, an angel's face, a devil's figure, used to describe the current Ye Jing'er is really similar.

After the koji was made, the official winemaking began, and at this stage, Zhang Yi also joined in.

Selection, crushing, soaking, batching, cooking and gelatinization, spreading and cooling, adding koji, saccharification in the next cylinder, fermentation in the cellar, and then distillation of the liquor. This busy work has passed in a month. During this period of time, the county began to collect taxes and rents, at this time of year, it was also the busiest time for Lu Hong, a huge county, there were always some people who resisted rent and taxes, and even injured tax officials also happened from time to time. He promised Gao Yuan that after he was fully recovered, he would go to work again, Gao Yuan did not move, he did not urge, anyway, he did not expect Gao Yuan to do anything, this team of soldiers stationed in the city now, there is no Gao Yuan, and nothing has happened quietly, too, under his nose, these soldiers have not dared to make trouble.

Lu Hong was so busy that his feet didn't touch the ground, this Gao Yuan's family finally waited for a critical day, these days, eating and sleeping in the wine room every day, Gao Yuan also lost a lot of weight, mainly to stay here to control the heat, he didn't want to give up his efforts, Ye Jing'er saw him so serious, but also moved a little curiosity, in addition to doing some housework every day, when he was free, he also came to the wine room to accompany Gao Yuan, she wanted to see if Gao Yuan could make wine.

A man and a woman have been getting along for a long time, and they are more familiar with each other, which makes the two really have some different feelings, Ye Jinger has a good impression of Gao Yuan, this time Gao Yuan almost gave his life for her, and he is more grateful in addition to his good feelings, and as Ye Jing'er becomes more and more like a woman day by day, the lofty heart that was once in the sea is also alive, compared with those dewy marriages in the previous life, Ye Jing'er, who is as pure as a blank piece of paper, quietly plucked the love string in his heart.

For Gao Yuan, teasing the girl is just a small piece of cake, a little revealing the means, it makes Ye Jinger very happy every day, more and more time to come to the wine room, Ye Niangzi sees it in her eyes, but she doesn't stop it, it's almost ten years, there is no news, she is gradually dying, Gao Yuan is not bad, the family background is not bad in Fufeng City, Jing'er marries him, it is also a good destination, just dare to play for Jing'er, Jing'er marries him, and he will not suffer in the future.

The Ye lady acquiesced, and Ye Jing'er came to the wine room for more time.

There was an enticing aroma of wine wafting in the wine room, Ye Jing'er's eyes widened, and she looked at Gao Yuan with some surprise, as if it was really made for him, and the aroma of wine alone was enough to make people full of expectations.

Gao Yuan's heart was even more excited, with his previous experience, just smelling the aroma of this wine, he knew that it had become.

"Ladies and gentlemen." Gao Yuan stretched his tone, and Tuan Tuan Ye Jing'er, Ye Feng, Zhang Yi, and Cui'er clenched their fists, "But you have to look at it!" He learned the cavity board on the stage, which immediately made all four of them laugh.

Zhang Yi brought a wooden barrel and placed it under the steaming retort, where there was a wine outlet, Gao Yuan stretched out his hand, gently pulled a wooden bolt under the steaming retort, tilted slightly, a clear sweet spring gushed out, and the thick aroma of wine wafted in the wine room.

Ye Jing'er's eyes widened, and she covered her mouth and exhaled softly. Zhang Yi opened his mouth and said, "My mother, it's really done." Except for Gao Yuan, several people in the room were surprised and inexplicable.

Zhang Yi used to be in Lufu, but he had seen a lot of so-called good wines, but although the wine made by Gao Yuan had not yet been imported, the aroma and color of the wine alone had already compared them all.

Gao Yuan smiled and picked up a scoop, seeing that the first wine was almost finished, he reached over and took some and handed it to Ye Jing'er, "Miss Jing'er, try my craftsmanship."

Taking the scoop from Gao Yuan's hand, Ye Jing'er didn't think about it, and drank it as soon as she craned her neck.

"Slow down!" Gao Yuan was taken aback, this is not those mash wines outside, it is not easy to get drunk no matter how much you drink, Gao Yuan estimated that this wine is at least fifty degrees, and Ye Jing'er does not drink often, like the way she drank before, there must be a problem.

Sure enough, Ye Jing'er, who didn't know the details, took a big sip of wine, and a flame suddenly ignited in her abdomen, and under the shock, she suddenly choked and coughed, lost the scoop, and kept coughing, and her face suddenly became blood red.

Gao Yuan didn't think about it, he quickly stretched out his hand and patted Ye Jing'er's back gently, "You can't drink this wine like this, you'll get drunk." Shoot while talking. Finally, Ye Jing'er stopped coughing, but just now, I was afraid that there would be a little two or two wines, Ye Jing'er's face was as red as blood, and her body was also shaking, but fortunately, she was sober, "This, what kind of wine is this?" Why is it so spicy?"

"This is a wine that has just come out of the pot, of course it will be very spicy, and it will be much better if you leave it for a while, but you can't drink too much of this wine." Gao Yuan looked at Ye Jing'er, who was a little shaky, and didn't think much about it, and reached out to help her.

Just helped Ye Jing'er, Ye Feng had a problem again, this little guy smelled the wine, and actually stretched his mouth to the mouth of the wine, and he didn't know how many big sips he drank, and when Gao Yuan found out, he had already turned in a circle on the ground, smirked while turning, turned a few times, and fell to the ground in a daze, and actually fell asleep.

"Young master, what a wine!" Zhang Yi was much more careful, poured a small sip lightly, and tasted it carefully, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Gao Yuan didn't have the heart to taste the joy again at this time, he held one in his hand, and planted one on the ground, and he had to send it back.

"Zhang Yi, you put all the wine out and pack it, seal it with mud, this wine, put it for a few more days, it's best to go to this spicy atmosphere, you and Cui'er don't say this to anyone, let's just make a music word by ourselves, say it, it will inevitably cause more trouble, understand?" Gao Yuandao.

After all, Zhang Yi came out of the county governor's mansion and knew the severity, "I know, young master."

"You and Cui'er clean up, I'll send these two back!" Gao Yuan shook his head, Ye Jing'er beside him was already drunk, and the whole person softened.

Bent down and lifted Ye Feng up from the ground, carried it on his shoulder, and supported the swaying Ye Jing'er with the other hand, "I'll send Miss Jing'er back."

Zhang Yi smiled and nodded, "Young Master is going to be busy with you, just leave it to me and Cui'er here."
