The matter of selling wine on behalf of Yang Yun was finalized while talking and laughing.

The shopkeeper of the restaurant looked confused, and after Yang Yun left with the three girls, he didn't figure out what was going on.

"Uncle Qi, this thing is really strange, haha, someone actually wants to sell us wine for nothing...... I don't listen to the accent like a local, so I can't come here to make fun of people, right? ”

The runner looked at the shopkeeper and asked.

The shopkeeper pulled down the towel on the shoulder of the running hall and said, "Sixth son, no matter how big the matter is, it has nothing to do with you, do your work." I'll talk to the boss later. ”

Before it gets dark, there is only one table left in the restaurant.

Uncle Qi took his six sons to the back kitchen, and at this time, a man about twenty years old was taking care of the stove, and a woman of fifteen or sixteen years old next to him was lighting the fire below.

"Daddy, business is good at tonight's dinner market, there are six tables of guests." When the girl saw Uncle Qi coming in, she raised her head with a smile and said, although her face was blackened by fireworks, she could not hide her bright eyes.

Uncle Qi said: "Actually, there are only five tables, but there is a table of guests who order two tables of dishes, and four people get together to eat." ”

The young man turned around with a smile: "I can bring my family out to eat together, I guess it's a passing merchant, this kind of guest is not easy to find." By the way, Daddy, Butcher Wei came to ask for money again, saying that the pork money on credit at the end of last month had not been paid to him, and the landlord had also come, saying that he should pay the rent for the next season, and we owed him a month's rent before......"

Uncle Qi's wrinkled face had a few more hills and ravines, and his slightly narrowed eyes were a little embarrassed: "This business is not easy to do." ”

Liuzi added: "You still owe me two months' wages." ”

Uncle Qi glanced at the sixth son: "It's a great luck to be able to eat and dress warmly this year...... You're gone, you're alone, just follow the old man and have a stutter, where are there so many requirements? ”

Speaking of this, Uncle Qi said to the young man in front of the cauldron again: "Boss, the guest just now is the baby who ordered two tables of dishes, and said that he would use our shop to sell wine on consignment, and the first few batches of wine will be given away for free, and if it sells well, he will be given money later." At that time, I agreed, but I felt that I should still discuss it with you, after all, you will be in charge of this family in the future. ”

The girl said: "Daddy, my brother hasn't started a family yet, how can he be in charge?" ”

Speaking of this stubble, the boss's face was full of shame, and because he had not yet married a wife at his age, it meant that either his family was not well-off, or he had physical problems. But seeing that he is good at hands and feet, and he does things neatly, he naturally occupies the first one.

The boss pondered for a moment and said, "We don't know them, how can they send us money for no reason?" Maybe there is some ulterior motive...... If the wine is not good and there is a problem, it is not that we are unlucky...... Daddy, don't do this business. ”

The girl asked, "Since he said that we don't know each other, why did he frame us?" Who does the bad thing? Since the other party said that the previous wine was given to us to sell, let's try to sell it......"

Uncle Qi made a mistake: "Now that our family is like this, we are not afraid of being falsely accused, but we are afraid of ...... Wine ......" Speaking of this, Uncle Qi shook his head.

The boss nodded: "Yes, the taste of the wine is bad, if they poison the wine, we can't do this business, not to mention, we have to eat a life lawsuit." ”

The girl pouted: "Daddy, we are not natives of Chengdu, we came to the city to make a living, and it is too difficult to live by relying on such a small business." ”

"Look at the current business, the meat money and housing money have not been settled, and if it goes on like this, sooner or later I will return to my hometown to farm. But we don't even have a place in our hometown, how can we live? People say that we use our shop to sell wine on consignment, and we sell it, so I don't believe that anyone will harm people for no reason, and if someone goes to court, we will recruit him, and he will not be able to please him. ”

Uncle Qi looked displeased: "What do you know about this little girl?" Boss, come on! ”

Even though the girl is very shrewd, Uncle Qi still doesn't believe in his daughter, and when there is a big event in the family, he is only willing to listen to his son's opinion.

The boss hesitated for a while, looked at his sister's threatening eyes, and finally lowered his head and said in a muffled voice: "After all, the money of the butcher and the landlord of Wei cannot be relied on...... Then listen to the little sister and try to sell it. ”

……

……

Yang Yun and the three sisters did not go back to the courtyard first, but went to Nanjie to buy wine, as well as iron pots, wooden retorts, gauze, bamboo tubes, clay pots and other strange things.

When he arrived at the door, An Lun said sullenly: "Master, why do you give people the wine for free?" Isn't that what we paid for? ”

Yang Yun said with a smile: "There are some things to tell you, you don't understand, in short, I can't bear the child can't trap the wolf, I do this to invest a sum of money first and open the market ......"

Seeing the bewildered looks of the three girls, Yang Yun shook his head and said, "Okay, let me put it another way, the main thing is that I don't have time to slowly promote our wine, so I can only find an agent." ”

"Agents?"

The three girls stared at each other and became more and more confused.

Yang Yun said solemnly: "Actually, it's very simple to say, that is, I want to make a fortune with this, but before launching the market on a large scale, I must first do market research...... Well, how to explain it, is to first look at the feedback on the market on the wine, see if there is any value, if the effect is good, and then decide on the next marketing strategy. ”

An Lun and Yarou could only stare dryly, because they couldn't understand Yang Yun's words at all.

Yang Yun said with a smile: "You don't have to think about why you do this, it won't be missing a mouthful of food for you, all you have to do is to help me and work together to make an unprecedented wine." ”

"Oh."

Both Aaron and Yarou nodded.

Yaqing next to him asked with a look of surprise, "Master, what can I do?" ”

Yang Yun said: "You are young and can't do anything else, just help carry firewood, and someone will bring wine when you turn around, you go to the door from time to time to take a look...... The task of the three of you tomorrow is to help me steam the wine at home. ”

……

……

Yang Yun is going to steam wine.

This distillation technique, which seemed to be ordinary in later generations, was not available in this era.

The wine in the Kaiyuan period is actually made of koji and some grains by natural fermentation, which is similar to the rice wine of later generations.

The specific process of making sake is rice, water, and koji, according to a certain proportion, put into a large urn, seal it, and wait for fermentation, fermentation is generally a few days or months, and when the time is almost over, it is sprinkled with lime.

The most significant feature of the wine made in this way is turbidity, and the turbid wine is talking about this kind of wine, generally this kind of wine, at the beginning there is a little green, such as the familiar "green ant new brew wine, red clay small stove." If you want snow in the evening, can you drink a glass of nothing? This is the case.

The low alcohol content of the liquor and the mixing of various brewing raw materials make the taste of the liquor less mellow, but if it is simply distilled, the head and tail are removed, and the impurities are removed, and the purity can be obtained with higher purity and stronger aroma.

In his previous life, when Yang Yun traveled to the Nujiang River in Yunnan, he visited the whole process of steaming wine by the local Lisu people.

Put a large pot on the stove, pour water into the pot to boil, then pour in the sake brewed in advance, then put the processed wooden retort inside into the pot, put a large pot on the top, and put an appropriate amount of water.

The place where the wooden retort is connected to the large iron pot is fenced with gauze to prevent air leakage. The place where the pot is connected to the wooden retort below is also pasted with flour to prevent alcohol from leaking. Then at the mouth of the wooden retort, insert the bamboo tube, place the wine jar under the bamboo tube, put gauze on the wine jar, and then cover the bamboo tube and gauze together with a damp cloth.

After the wine outlet is sealed, the fire can not be burned too much, so that the steamed wine will slowly flow into the wine jar, when the water of a large iron pot above is hot, the water will be changed, usually a pot of wine is steamed three times on the water, usually the wine just came out of the high degree, the wine is strong, and the subsequent alcohol degree is gradually reduced, the more the latter taste is weaker.

It is not difficult to make steamed wine, but Yang Yun is really flawless, and he doesn't know if people in this era can accept high wine.

Not everything new will be accepted, and there will be many obstacles in the early stage, so Yang Yun wanted to do market research with roadside restaurants.
