Chapter 14: The Wonderful Use of Alcohol

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui bowed very politely: "I've seen Mrs. Li"

The eldest grandson Wuji had a headache and asked, "Sister, why are you here to join in the fun." ”

The eldest grandson said with a smile: "This is not to hear from Xianggong, there is a wizard who made a bet with his brother, so come and take a look." ”

Then she moved her gaze to Li Feng, looked at it for a while, and nodded slowly: "It seems that you are a talent, why don't I test you?" ”

Li Feng, who had been looking at the eldest grandson queen, heard this, and immediately arched his hand and said: "Mrs. Li praised it falsely, Lao Li is my savior, and Mrs. Li is also my savior. ”

"Very good at talking, I won't test you for anything else, just test your potatoes, yesterday Lao Li was busy for this potato.

Can you tell me where this potato comes from, how much yield per mu, how many times a year can it be planted, and how to eat it? ”

Li Feng was stunned for a moment, and said: "Originally, I was going to wait for three months to announce this matter, but now that Mrs. Li asked, then I will talk about it." Let's talk as we go. ”

"Okay." The eldest grandson agreed.

Everyone else turned to Li Er, and Li Er said: "Look at what I do, do whatever my wife says, go to Taiping Village, Wannian County, and plant potatoes." ”

"Yes." All should come to the word.

The eldest grandson slowly came to a carriage with the support of a maidservant, the appearance of the carriage was not exquisite and luxurious, and after the eldest grandson got into the carriage, Li Er also sat down.

Then beckoned Li Feng to also get into the carriage, and as for the others, they all rode to Wannian County.

After Li Feng entered the carriage, he found that the internal space was quite large, which could accommodate five or six people, but now with the addition of three people, the space was very relaxed.

The eldest grandson smiled at Li Feng, who was looking around: "This is the first time to ride in a carriage?" ”

Li Feng retracted his gaze, smiled awkwardly, and said, "It's the first time, I've never sat on it, and I haven't even ridden a horse." ”

Li Er said: "This is not good, how can a good man of the Tang Dynasty not be able to ride a horse, tomorrow I will let someone give you a good horse." ”

"Thank you, Lao Li. I'll learn it by heart, and as a token of appreciation, I'll give you a bottle of alcohol. ”

Li Feng took out a bottle of alcohol and gave it to Li Er, a total of three bottles of high-purity alcohol were distilled last night, and now one bottle has been given away.

Li Er took the wine bottle and opened the lid of the wine bottle curiously, and a strong aroma of wine filled the carriage.

"Good wine, just by smelling the taste, you know that this wine is much stronger than the wine just now." As soon as Li Er finished speaking, he was about to take a sip.

Seeing this, Li Feng was frightened into a cold sweat, and immediately stopped: "You can't drink it, it's not wine." ”

Li Er stopped drinking, with an expression that you can't deceive me, and said with a smile: "Li Feng, such a strong smell of wine, you said that this is not wine, do you think I will believe it?" ”

"Oops." Li Feng said, "This is really not wine, it is alcohol, which is used for disinfection and sterilization to prevent wound infection."

If you drink this alcohol now, it may kill you from alcoholism, so you should never drink it. ”

When the eldest grandson heard this, his face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Xianggong, hurry, quickly throw away this alcohol." ”

Li Er didn't listen to the eldest grandson's words, but closed the lid and looked at the wine bottle, his face was very solemn.

"Li Feng, you just said that this alcohol can prevent wound infection?"

Li Feng nodded heavily and said: "That's right, my purpose in making this alcohol is actually to do business with the military, I know that the imperial court often fights, and many soldiers die because of this, but the vast majority of these dead soldiers are not killed in battle, but because of wound infection."

Lucky, when he was infected, he could still survive by cutting off his arms and legs, but he was also considered useless, and when he returned to his hometown, he had to rely on his family to take care of him, which was a complete drag on his family.

For this reason, I made this alcohol, which is used to disinfect and sterilize wounds, so as to reduce the number of deaths of soldiers due to wound infection. ”

"You're sure the alcohol will prevent the wound from getting infected." Li Er asked again.

Li Feng nodded and said, "I'm very sure that after a soldier is injured, wipe the wound with alcohol, and then bandage it with a clean cloth, and he will definitely not be infected." Remember, be sure to use a clean cloth, a cloth that has been boiled in hot water, a cloth that has been dried in the sun, and other cloths, I can't guarantee it. ”

"Okay, I remember, I'll use my connections to send alcohol to the army and let the people in the road team verify that the alcohol is what you say."

As soon as Li Feng heard that Li Er was going to put himself on the line of the military, he immediately took out two other bottles of alcohol and said, "These two bottles are also for you, although let them test, it is not enough for me to do it again." If it's confirmed, I'll open another line to do alcohol.

Lao Li, do you want to buy shares, this is a big deal. It is guaranteed that you will be able to eat and wait for death for several lifetimes, and you will have no worries about food and clothing. ”

Li Er scolded with a smile: "Stinky boy, am I such an ambitious person? ”

Li Feng smiled: "Of course you're not, I'll make an analogy, get down to business, Lao Li, as long as you can get on the line with the military, I'll give you a dry share." ”

"It's just one percent, it's too little, right?" Li Er pouted.

The eldest grandson empress on the side chuckled: "Xianggong, don't make fun of Li Feng." Li Feng, it's not easy for you to make some money, as long as this alcohol is beneficial to Datang, I believe that Your Majesty will definitely reward you for your merits today. ”

"Thank you Mrs. Li for speaking up, Lao Li, you are very inferior to your wife in this regard, you should learn more from your wife." Li Feng said.

"Poof," the eldest grandson laughed, and he found Li Feng very interesting.

Li Er rolled his eyes, this stinky boy can really see the stitches, and he will hurt me if he catches the opportunity.

"Okay, let's not talk about anything else, let's talk about this potato, you bet with Lao Sun, are you sure you can win?"

It doesn't matter if you win or lose, Li Er actually cares about what Li Feng said, solving the problems of the people in the world, which is a problem that has never been solved in history.

Now that Li Feng said that potatoes can solve it, how could Li Er, the emperor, not care.

Li Feng stretched out two or three fingers and said slowly: "I only say three things, and you will know if it can be solved." ”

"Oh, I'm curious about what are the three things?" The eldest grandson said unhurriedly.

There was curiosity in her words, but there was no hint of curiosity in her tone.

Li Feng was a little speechless in his heart, and said secretly: "Is it necessary to act in front of my eyes?" ”

A smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Mrs. Li is right to be curious. I'm afraid there is no one in the world who is not curious. Lao Li, you should be curious too. ”

Li Erdao: "Although I am curious, I am not in a hurry, I can wait until three months later." ”

"Bah, you're not in a hurry, why are you not in a hurry for your daughter-in-law to come over? It's not for you yet. Li Feng scolded secretly.

But there was an expression on his face that you were not in a hurry, and said: "Forget it, since you all want to know, then I will say, the first thing: potatoes do not pick the ground, almost any land can be planted, secondly, potatoes can be fully matured in three months, and thirdly, the yield of potatoes per mu is at least 3,000 catties." ”

"What?"

"Say it again."

Li Er and the eldest grandson spoke at the same time, both thinking that something was wrong with their ears.

And their voices also made Fang Xuanling and the others curious, what did Li Feng say to Li Er and his wife here? The two most powerful people in the world were so shocked.

Li Feng was very satisfied with their performance, for the first two items, he knew that Li Er and the eldest grandson would not be shocked by the first and second articles, how to say that the ingredients in this world are not nothing, and it is not for nothing that they meet these two conditions.

But the third piece, the yield per mu is at least 3,000 catties, looking at the entire Datang, it is impossible to find it at all.

He smiled slightly, and said again: "The yield of potatoes per mu is more than 3,000 catties, even if it is 4,000 catties, it is very common, I don't know if this can solve the problem of eating for the people in the world." ”

Li Er swallowed his saliva, and after a while, he made a difficult voice: "Yes, absolutely can." As long as it is determined that the potatoes can yield 3,000 catties per mu, there will be no people starving to death in Datang. ”

The eldest grandson said: "Li Feng, three months later, as long as the potatoes are really as you said, the yield per mu is 3,000 catties, even if I use all my relationships, I will let you be an official." ”

Li Feng hurriedly refused: "No, I don't want to be an official, officialdom is sinister and intriguing, once I enter the officialdom, it's no wonder that I won't be swallowed by those officials." ”

"Is officialdom as terrifying as you say?" Li Er said dissatisfiedly.

Li Feng said: "I don't care, I'd rather I don't want anything than be an official." Madame Li, if you are able, please write a few words for me. ”

"What do you want to write?" The eldest grandson asked.

Li Feng began to ponder, he recalled those big brands in later generations, he wanted to copy one, suddenly his eyes lit up, and said: "It's called Baijiajiu, in the future, I will use different grains, fruits, flowers, etc. to brew different wines, and the brand of my family's wine is Baijiajiu."

In the future, I will let the whole Datang and even the whole world know that Datang has a brewing workshop with 100 breweries. I want everyone to know that it's hard to find a lot of money. ”

"If you have ambition, don't worry, I will use all my connections to help you ask Your Majesty for a pair of ink treasures, and even ask Your Majesty to give you a plaque of Baijiazhuo."

"Thank you." Li Feng sincerely thanked him.

Li Er waved his hand, just a gesture, but he wouldn't say it.

On the next trip, the three of them talked and chatted, as if they were confidants who hated to meet late, and finally Li Feng recognized the eldest grandson as his godmother, and as for Li Er, he was still called Lao Li.

According to Li Feng's words, this is called the irrelevance of each and each other.

Soon everyone came to Taiping Village, Wannian County.

The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Li Feng, in front of me is my Zhuangzi, not big, fifty tenants, three hundred acres of fertile land. I have asked the farmer to prepare an acre of fertile land for you to grow potatoes. ”

Li Feng said: "Very good, let the farmer plant the land now, just water it once every ten days, occasionally weed, and don't do anything else." ”

"Don't you need to fertilize?" Eldest Sun Wuji asked.

"It doesn't matter if you don't fertilize faster and bigger, if you don't fertilize slowly, you will be smaller." Li Feng said.
