Chapter 54: Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chicks
At the same time, a cool summer.
Fat Ball, who came back from buying wine, told Jing Zhe what happened on the road, and finally added: "That guy is sneaky, and it's not a good thing at first glance!" I pretended not to know anything, waited for him to leave, secretly followed him, and saw him enter the watermelon shop diagonally opposite! β
"Fat man!"
Jing Zhe gave him a thumbs up.
"He's not going to find anything, is he?"
"No!"
Fat Ball said proudly: "That guy looks stupid and naΓ―ve, he doesn't talk about being played by me, and he thinks he's smart!" β
Jing Zhe gave him a thumbs up again, thinking that Lin Tong sent someone over to inquire about the news, and it is estimated that he never dreamed that he would meet their actor.
It's a play within a play!
"According to your analysis, that person is trying to trick our ice-making method?"
"Yes."
Fat Ball is very confident in this, "Although he didn't say it explicitly, the meaning of his words was too obvious. I didn't say death, I deliberately hesitated, I guess next, they will have to send me silver! β
The fat ball ate the opponent's routine to death, and even guessed their next move, so that Jing Zhe couldn't help but give him a thumbs up for the third time.
Fat Ball was praised by Jing Zhe, and pulled his brother's big face over: "Young village master, I won't tell you, there is no one in our family who is not shrewd!" With my two brothers here, one helps you manage the business in the store, and the other helps you worry about the trivial things outside the store, you can sit back and relax! β
"Awesome (broken sound)!"
Jing Zhe once again praised the fat ball, and at the same time said emotionally: "I can't imagine that a small mountain can cultivate the two of you!" To have a sleeping dragon and phoenix chick around me at the same time, God helps me! β
"Hehe, hehe..."
Fat Ball and Big Face laughed hand in hand, like a fool.
Jing Zhe praised the two, and then got to the point.
"If your analysis is correct, they will contact you tomorrow at the latest, and then, you can do it..."
β¦β¦
After the lunch break, Jing Zhe asked Hanhan to send someone to find a few iron pots, and a few vacuum bamboo pipes to send to the backyard.
The advantage of Han Han and the others is that although they don't know what Jing Zhe wants to do, they don't talk nonsense, and they do what they are told to do immediately, and their efficiency is extremely high.
The iron pot was quickly found, and under the guidance of Jing Zhe, after a busy afternoon, a strange-shaped, crooked device was set up by Han Han and others, and the hollow bamboo pipe was finally connected to a big empty jar, and I don't know what it was for.
Han Han stared at this strange thing that he had never seen before, and was curious in his heart, and couldn't help asking, "Young village master, what is this?" β
Jing Zhe smiled, "You'll find out later!" β
Then he sent Han Han and others to guard the four corners of the house, beware of outsiders coming in or lying in the corners.
This thing is a simple alcohol distillation device.
The principle of alcohol distillation is very simple, mainly relying on the boiling point of alcohol is lower than that of water, and the alcohol is volatilized by heating, and then condensed to obtain purified alcohol.
With such a simple principle, Jing Zhe naturally understands it.
The most important part of the operation is to control the heating temperature, because if the temperature is too high, the alcohol and water will evaporate together, and after condensation, the result is still a low concentration of alcohol, which cannot be purified.
The distillation device that Jing Zhe asked people to make is to first heat the water, and use the water temperature to heat the cloudy liquor bought, so that the alcohol vapor is re-condensed at the top, and enters the bamboo tube, and what flows out is the purified alcohol, or the spirits with higher concentration.
This method is not difficult, and it is easy to imitate it after being seen by others, so Jing Zhecai sent Han Han and others to let it out, which shows the importance he attaches to this distillation device.
In this era, there are no patents to apply for, and doing a good job of confidentiality is the top priority.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
After the preparation, Jing Zhe poured all the ten catties of turbid wine that Fat Ball had just bought, and then began to heat it, as a drop of wine flowed out of the hollow bamboo tube, gradually, the backyard began to fill with a rich aroma of wine.
When the speed of the liquor flowing out of the bamboo tube became extremely slow, Jing Zhe knew that the turbid liquor had almost been distilled, so he took out a small scoop and put a little liquor in the jar, put it in his mouth and tasted it, his brows stretched, and then he laughed.
This liquor was finally made by him!
Although this liquor is only forty or fifty degrees due to its poor equipment, in this era, for those who usually only drink one or twenty degrees of turbid wine, this is a proper spirit!
If it's sold, it's absolutely priceless!
But he didn't make spirits to sell, but for other purposes.
Jing Zhe looked at the jar, it was about three or four catties, that is to say, this alcohol distillation device could get less than half of the spirits each time.
Although the amount looks a little small, it's a good degree!
He poured out all the spirits in the jar and poured it into the jar that originally contained the turbid liquor, and only two jars were filled in the two-pound jar.
Jing Zhe walked around the backyard, but he was still not at ease, so he dismantled the distillation device.
At this time, Fat Ball and Hanhan came over smelling the wine.
When he saw the five jars of turbid wine he had just bought, and three jars had bottomed out, Fat Qiu was surprised and surprised: "Young village master, where is the wine?" β
Jing Zhe pointed to the two jars of spirits, "There!" β
"But these are only two altars..."
Fat Ball walked over, and before he finished speaking, he found the difference between the two jars of wine, he didn't bend down, and the strong aroma of wine rushed into his nostrils, making people fascinated.
"What is this?"
"Taste it!"
So, Fat Ball picked up a jar, raised his head and drank it.
"Good wine! It's so strong! β
Han Han was itchy when he heard it, snatched his wine jar and poured a sip, and shouted: "Good wine!" β
Then he asked, "Young village master, what is this?" β
"Spirits!"
"Spirits?"
The two of them said in unison.
They had only heard of those Fanbangs who were in the wilderness, who had been eating and sleeping outside the country for many years, and had been nomadic in the grasslands, so they drank a little more wine than they did, but only some.
And the highest degree of spirits, I heard that only the Fanbang royal family has them, which shows the preciousness of this high degree of spirits, but where does the spirit in front of you come from?
The eyes that looked at Jing Zhe were full of doubt.
"This liquor is what I just made - it is the ten catties of turbid wine that the fat man bought, the output of this liquor is not high, and ten catties of turbid liquor can only get these two jars of liquor in the end."
When the two of them heard this, their mouths widened at the same time.
The young master is really powerful!
Is there anything else he won't?
