Outside Huangqu Town, the Lujia Distillery has just released new wine, but there are more than 100 jars, and it has been sold out before it is sold. At first, several sommeliers thought that a girl of no more than sixteen or seventeen years old knew what sake lees were, so instead of filtering it, the first wine was added to the lees and brewed a second time. It took twice as long to make the first wine, and the rest of the lees were separated and a little new grain was added for the second wine. The recipe has been changed for the second time, especially the water used in each brewing is carefully divided.

Once, when the apprentice used the wrong water, it was time to make wine, and Yulian was not enough to go in and smell the wine lees that came out of more than a dozen jars. The master felt that it was a pity that he had to make wine and discard all the lees. The other jars of sake lees produce wine that is very different in color and aroma. The first time the sake is brewed and the second and third times are divided into various grades, which makes the brewing master feel strange. What is the difference between the same brewing process, Yulian Pian Pian divides several kinds of wine into saleable and cellar cellars.

There is a forbidden place in the winery, in which there are several large vats. The full peach blossoms have exuded a faint aroma of wine, and the first wine is fragrant and elegant. The sommelier smelled it and felt that he had never seen such a fine wine in his life, and the man who was the most important ingredient for making wine was not allowed to touch it. The water is taken from the spring water in the mountains hundreds of miles away, and the peach blossoms and jade lotuses are not allowed to be picked by men. Once a man sent a frame of peach blossoms, Yulian was not only useless, but also still far away, for fear that the two peach blossoms from the same place but picked by others would be mixed together.

The most surprising thing about peach blossoms is that every flower picker is a young girl. The eldest was never more than eighteen years old, and the peach blossoms picked by the women who left the pavilion were divided into the second class. As for the third class at all, the stored pots of peach blossom jade lotus were picked by himself.

The rest of the peach blossoms personally selected a few girls to follow Yulian to learn the method of winemaking, and the master wanted to see the mystery of it, and Yulian did not stop it, but said the mystery of it. The teacher thinks that the same peach blossoms can be picked by different people. When the wine was made, it was discovered that the peach blossoms picked by the girl were not at all the same as the peach blossoms made by the peach blossoms picked by the woman. Only then did I remember that the girl picked peach blossoms and put them in the frame with her mouth, but the woman used her hands because Yulian did not use her mouth.

It is not clear what is different between Yulian, and the peach blossom wine that came out for the first time has been sealed. A few large vats of Yulian are now empty, and such a large wine shop can only take out a large jar of wine. There are only five jars of wine made by Yulian herself, all of which are sealed, and no one rushes to the cellar to move the five jars of peach blossom wine.

In the autumn harvest season, the Lujia winery is already famous within a hundred miles of the vicinity, and the wineries and wineries in several counties and towns have to follow the rules of the wineries if they want to buy wine. There is not much wine, but it is not expensive, but there are many people who come. Except for the peach blossom wine, which cannot be brewed, the rest of the wine masters can only helplessly increase production. Seeing the sharp brewing process of Yulian, the master is more concerned with the quality of the wine than Yulian. One by one, the apprentices of the wine master will hide when they see the master, or say that there is nothing wrong with it.

The rest of the wine masters have been clear for more than half a year, and the peach blossom wine has also been understood. I don't know what the difference is between the peach blossom wine made by Yulian herself, and it has been stored in the cellar for three months. The old man wanted to take it out and taste it, but he was a little reluctant. Yulian said that the peach blossom wine made by Peach Blossom herself must be taken out in three months to be the best, and no matter how long it is, it will affect the aroma.

The old man wanted to ask why, but Yulian just said: "Daddy said that the peach blossoms I picked are different from others, and each peach blossom is best only if I rub it with my own hands." ”

Yulian came to the winery and looked at the winery getting bigger and bigger, and she was very happy, the first wine since the opening had been exchanged for half of the cost of the winery. Nowadays, although it is not enough to make money, it can maintain the livelihood of everyone in the winery, and once the third wine is sold, it will definitely make a lot of money.

When he came to the small courtyard behind the winery, the old man held a cigarette stick and hovered over the old man's head. On the small table was a new third course of wine, which was soft and spicy under the throat. Nodding lightly, he said, "It's much more beautiful than last time." ”

Yulian walked in and said, "Grandpa Wang, can I taste it too." ”

The old man didn't look back and said fiercely: "Go to work, there is a responsibility." Raising the small cup again, it was Yulian who came, sat up and said, "Yulian is you, come and taste it." ”

There are five small flasks on the table, each with its own flavor. Flip up a cup and pour it down, and hand it to Yulian. The girl took it and tasted it gently, and immediately filled the other four wines and tasted them gently. Three kinds of grain wine and two kinds of peach blossom wine, Yulian nodded with satisfaction.

said: "Grandpa Wang, these two peach blossom wines have reached the extreme, unless the recipe is improved. Feng San, Dakang is not bad, but Qiaozi is still worse, as for what is not clear, I can't say it for the time being. ”

The old man nodded lightly and said, "The first-grade peach blossom is light and elegant, and the second-grade peach blossom has a long charm." It is true that the high and low can be distinguished, and the old man has never felt that the same process has different charms if the same process is different. Fengsan is relatively heavy, and the aroma of wine is also a little heavier, and Dakang is the most unique with a fruity aroma. The woodcutter has great stamina, but it lacks the strength it should have, and the old man thought of a few kinds of writing on paper, and the girl looked back to see what kind of one should be used. ”

Yulian put down the wine glass and said, "It's strong, just like how a woodcutter can chop wood without strength, show me." ”

I took the paper and looked at a few of them, but I was still at a loss, and said, "Grandpa Wang, I don't understand this, tell me about it." The old man took the paper and said for a long time, and Yulian suddenly realized. The old man is even more proud, and it is rare for Miss Yulian to get experience in the winemaking method.

glanced at the sunset and said, "The peach blossoms I brewed today are almost ready to come out of the cellar, and Grandpa Wang will taste them." ”

The old man had been waiting for this day for three months, and he asked about the unusual aroma of wine from the time he came out of the wine. At that time, I wanted to taste Yulian to stop the old man, saying that after drinking it now, I would not be able to experience the best taste of peach blossoms. The old man had to wait, but fortunately, the other three new wines were not bad. The taste of the first peach blossom and the second peach blossom is unprecedented, and it is more light and elegant than the peach blossoms elsewhere. Lele called a few men to the wine cellar and took out the peach blossoms made of Yulian.

The five altars were moved to the backyard, so that one large altar could be divided into ten smaller altars. At that time, the old man did not understand why he had prepared a large altar of five, but now the large altar of five is placed in the courtyard. The old man couldn't wait to take a sip, and suddenly asked, a fragrance wafted away. A man slapped open another jar, but it was a different aroma.

didn't have time to pick up the tools and pat open the other three jars immediately, and found that the five jars of wine had their own flavors. After picking up the wooden spoons and tasting them separately, he said: "There are actually five tastes, I can't understand it, I can't understand it." ”

The fragrance of peach blossoms in the small courtyard seems to come to the peach source that blooms in spring, and the five smells are mixed but very distinct. The faint aroma of wine slowly spread, and everyone in the courtyard was intoxicated. After scrambling to taste it, the old man immediately interrupted and said: "Give it to all put it in a small jar, and it should not be opened as a boutique without the instructions of the old man." If you drop a drop that is unforgivable, it's clear that no. ”

A few men carefully installed the altar, and the old man poured a smile and tasted it happily. Yulian looked at the old man's appearance and smiled lightly, but she didn't know that these five major jars of wine had become a masterpiece.

Nanjing Chen Geng came suddenly as the commander of the Changfeng Army, and the entire army has not had a battle for half a year. It is rare for Southern Chu of Daliang to be in peace, and it seems that it has become a foregone conclusion to divide the river and govern it. Many generals don't think that Chen Geng can serve as the commander of an army, but this person has more than enough defense but not enough attack. Since its establishment, the Changfeng Army has always claimed to be a strong army, and its proudest point is its attack. For half a year, he never took a step out of the border, and even the scouts rarely entered the territory of Southern Chu to investigate, but the Chu army scouts often haunted.

Only Xue Liren and several leaders of the Changfeng Battalion were convinced that the 100,000-strong army and even the entire Nanjing border defense could be considered stable. Many people have not looked at the thirteen battalions given by His Majesty, and no one in the battalion is over thirty years old. The 3,000 people are all teenagers, and Liu Zhixing, as the main general, is less than twenty. The establishment of a new army, the crown of the long wind is the weakest. Except for the previous 100 people, the rest of them were all recruits, and the short-term training had no effect.

Three thousand men have been practicing the most basic horsemanship, while the other has only practiced spears, and six hundred have played with longbows every day without shooting an arrow. There has never been a battalion in the Changfeng army with three arms, and the most peculiar thing is that Zheng Shuixin and Zheng Shuiji, two brothers, led two hundred people, often not in the barracks, and they don't know what to do in the field. It is normal for Lu Lin Gao Xiaolong to lead a hundred people, and he never slacks off in practicing swords every day.

The hundred-handled long sword Liu Zhixing spent half a month in Chen Geng's place before he could get permission. A thousand cavalry had only three hundred horses, and a thousand soldiers could only use wooden sticks as spears. The six hundred crossbowmen had only bows but no arrows, and the six hundred longbows were more old bows that were to be eliminated in the Long Wind Camp. The first wave of baggage sent by the military department was very small, especially the various baggage that Liu Zhixing could not be deployed.

The three hundred excellent war horses were still called by Chen Geng from elsewhere, making Liu Zhixing, who had just become the coach, seem to be powerless and nowhere to go. The thirteenth battalion has been established for half a year, and I originally wanted to select some veterans from the major military camps with His Majesty's encouragement. But I didn't expect that nearly one-third of the new recruits this year were all divided into the thirteenth battalion, and if the old department was not retained, I really didn't know how to train this group of recruits. During this time, there have been many rebellions in the army, and there have even been several brawls with the military tents not far from each other. The recruits were young and vigorous, but they still couldn't beat the group of veterans, until hundreds of people beat up a dozen veterans at a time.

The general personally went to Liu Zhixing's military tent to find someone, and had to send more than 100 recruits, first-class centurion Zhang Xing, with 20 military sticks. Zhang Xing was very unconvinced and lost his temper with Liu Zhixing, and Liu Zhixing gathered all the people in the general tent and said only one sentence: "If you want to beat someone, you can beat the old soldier one-on-one." Even if the commander is standing here, this general dares to say that you are right, if you win more and less like today, even if you win, don't think about getting a good word from me. ”

Everyone was helpless, and they only felt that being assigned to the thirteenth battalion was the greatest shame. It's all a group of newcomers who are still fart, and the generals have to leave with their subordinates, and Liu Zhixing, the general above the centurion, all stays. The people were only angry, why were there only three hundred horses? The spear can still be made by itself, and the most infuriating thing is that there are still 600 bows and crossbows, and they only draw bows every day and never shoot arrows. After some discussion, only Chu Hanlin and Liang Bo remained, and a deputy general of the 13th Battalion had achieved the most pathetic position.

Liang Bo now has a great reputation in the Changfeng Army, and almost everyone knows about the major military tents. There is a name of the tattered king, and the greatest achievement of the lieutenant general is to go to the major military tents to find obsolete weapons. Especially the bow and arrow often have no arrow tip, and Chu Hanlin has been studying the formation but has never received a response.

In the past six months, Liu Zhixing has been running around for this group of teenagers, and the two hundred field soldiers have received nearly ordinary resources from the 13th battalion. Especially the alchemy was sent by my brother Liu Zhiming, and I really wanted my father, who was the secretary of the military department, to open a small stove and give a little more blades. At least the thirteenth battalion can be fully equipped, and there is only a reply for half a year saying that it is waiting.

Liu Zhixing, who was distressed in the military tent, said: "Liang Bo, you should move around more and find more arrows and spears for the soldiers." Go to the kamikaze camp to see if Lin Zhong has any extra war horses, and if so, see if he can borrow them. ”

Liang Bo said with a distressed look: "General, you better let the others go, now I have the nickname of the Rag King." Who else is borrowing now, and they have borrowed but not returned in the past six months. Now that I have gone to various camps, the main generals are hiding, and the deputy generals are all saying that they can't call the shots. ”

Liu Zhixing said with a bitter face: "Let's go for the thirteenth battalion." ”

Looking at the map of Nanjing, he said: Take six hundred crossbowmen to this mountain, and tell Zhou Yan to go to the nearby mountains to hunt and practice accuracy from Zhao Chaokun. Let Zhang Xing and Liu Qing lead the spearmen to practice like that, this time you personally led the team You Dahu Chuyang Zhanghan went to the border to practice horses, you stared at the fight if you meet Nanchu scouts but don't cross the border, it is better if you can grab the horse. Bring me back a lot of one. ”

The two looked at Liu Zhixing and had no choice but to leave, this time I am afraid that there are not many people in the entire military tent. Liu Zhixing slapped the table heavily and said, "You don't want me to do it, you have to do it for you to see." If you don't give something, then I'll rob Nanchuma, and if you don't give arrows, I'll go to the mountains to practice. ”
