Chapter 090: Time of Peace (2)

On the morning of this day, Lu Bu took Guo Jia, Dian Wei and others to a remote mansion in Jinyang City.

From the outside, this house looks very ordinary, covering a large area, but the high courtyard walls are a little dilapidated, and it looks like a dilapidated property left by a large family.

Lu Bu had to find the two of them early, and he didn't say what he was going to do, Dian Wei, who didn't like to talk much, was better, and Guo Jiake, who was lively by nature, couldn't bear it, and asked many times, Lu Bu just smiled and kept silent, but it aroused the strong curiosity of the two people.

The vermilion lacquer gate is a little dilapidated, and the copper rings on the door are a little worn. However, after Lu Bu carefully knocked on the door with a peculiar rhythm a few times, the door opened automatically, which immediately surprised the two people behind him.

Lu Bu looked back at the expressions of the two of them, and felt very satisfied, and said: "Don't be in a hurry to be surprised, you must follow my footsteps for a while, don't move around at will, some places are very dangerous." ”

As smart as Guo Jia had guessed that this must be a very secret place at this moment, he nodded, did not speak, and walked in with Dian Wei along Lu Bu's footsteps.

As soon as the three of them entered the courtyard, the two gates suddenly slammed shut.

Lu Bu explained while leading the way in front: "Do you remember Zhang Da? ”

"But that Zhang Heng's descendant, Master Zhang?" Guo Jia asked rhetorically.

"That's right, it's Master Zhang. Many of the improvements and designs of weapons and equipment in our state are from his hands, and this mansion is the base I secretly prepared for him, don't underestimate this base, it looks no different from an ordinary mansion on the outside, but in fact, there are all kinds of mechanisms here, and it can even be said that it is an iron wall. If you accidentally enter the forbidden area, it will be ugly to die. Lu Bu said as he casually threw a stone and threw it on one side of the wall.

Before the stone hit the wall, there were a few sounds on the ground, followed by the sound of a bowstring flicking, and dozens of feather arrows were deeply inserted into the wall where it was smashed, and the stone was also shattered by several of the feather arrows.

Guo Jia saw this and said excitedly: "It's so powerful, it's difficult for birds to enter." ”

Lu Bu continued to walk forward with the two of them, and said, "This is just the most protective measure, so don't be too surprised, there are things that surprise you when you get inside." But that's not why I'm here today. ”

"Oh? Why is that? Guo Jia was once again intrigued.

Lu Bu still looked unfathomable, shook his head and said no more.

Guo Jia saw Lu Bu selling Guan Zi and knew that he was deliberately hanging his appetite, but at this time, he could only wait patiently for the moment when the mystery was revealed, but the curiosity in his heart was spreading rapidly.

As for Dian Wei, he was completely unmoved, his idea was very simple, and the things that the lord wanted him to know would naturally tell him, and he didn't need to worry too much.

Finally, Lu Bu took the two of them to the door of a side room, which was obviously very different from other places, because there was a strong aroma of grain and wine at a great distance from here.

Guo Jia and Dian Wei are both good wine people, and their eyes lit up when they smelled this familiar smell.

Or did Guo Jia open his mouth first: "Lord, this, this house is not a wine cellar?" ”

"Hehe, you know why I brought you two here." Lu Bu was also refreshed after smelling the smell here, and finally in this era, he could taste the purified real liquor, how could he not make him, a good wine person, very excited.

It turned out that since Zhang Da made that distillation equipment last time, Lu Bu has always wanted to use this equipment to make fine wines for future generations.

At that time, some preliminary preparations were made, but due to the continuous war, this matter was temporarily put aside, until a while ago Zhang Da suddenly came to visit in person, saying that according to Lu Bu's previous instructions, a set of equipment for brewing fine wine was made in that base, and found a brewing master in the city of Bingzhou to experiment and make several batches of wine, after several failed tests, finally found a more stable way, and made a batch of good wine, and today is the day when this batch of wine is brewed.

Open the door, the face is steaming heat and rich aroma of wine, after the three of them entered, someone quickly closed the door, because the fermentation process of wine needs to maintain a constant temperature, but in this era there is no air conditioning and other temperature equipment, can only be through simple physical methods to achieve temperature regulation.

There are a lot of wine-making equipment in the room, which is not much different from an ordinary winery, but in the middle of the room is a set of novel equipment, which is composed of many slender and sectional pipes, which is actually an enlarged version of the distillation equipment made by Zhang Da before.

At this moment, at one end of the device, many people around were discussing something in a whisper, and in the dim environment, it was impossible to see who those people were. In addition, several workers are working seriously in their respective positions.

Lu Bu signaled that the workers around him didn't need to disturb them, and walked over with Guo and Dian.

When I got closer, I saw a few people, including Zhang Da, Tian Feng, Diao Chan and Zhang Ning's two daughters, as well as two other old men.

At this moment, it was the two old men who were squatting in the middle of everyone, staring intently at a barrel of utensils in front of them, and the steaming heat kept rising from around the utensils, and the two old men leaned over from time to time to take a few deep breaths, then shook their heads and retreated.

Zhang Da opened his mouth and asked, "Elder Liu, Elder Wang, isn't this okay?" The hour has passed. ”

One of the old men with a sparse beard shook his head, looked at the other old man and said, "Brother Liu, why do I think it's still a little bit worse, what do you think?" ”

The old man surnamed Liu nodded, and his two white eyebrows wrinkled tightly together: "It should be possible, but we haven't succeeded in this method before, with past experience, this taste shouldn't be right, too... Too... Hey, oops, I don't know how to describe it. ”

At this time, Lu Bu suddenly spoke: "Is it too rich?" ”

The old man surnamed Wang, who had a sparse beard, suddenly struck his hands together and said: "That's right, it's too strong, it turns out that the strange smell we started to smell first is not a bad taste, but too strong and a little similar to a sour smell, so it is." Hahaha, thank you so much...... Well, but who are you? ”

Zhang Da hurriedly introduced: "Lord, these two are the most famous brewers in our state, Liu Chong and Wang Neng. Liu Lao, Wang Lao, this is General Lu, our set of equipment and this method are proposed by him. ”

Lu Bu waved his hand and hurriedly stopped the two old men from preparing to salute, and said: "Second elders, don't be polite, you are the biggest heroes, I just use my mouth, but it is you heroes who really make efforts." ”

Everyone hurriedly was polite, Lu Bu knew that if he was polite again, it would be endless, so he changed the topic and said: "Second elder, I think it's better to be like this, let's open the wine and taste it, won't we know the result?" ”

Liu Chong was a little embarrassed, he still felt unsafe and wanted to continue to wait and observe for a while, but Wang Neng gave him a strong look and said, "This is very good, just do what General Lu said." ”

Zhang Da nodded, twisted a few knobs on the side, and saw the lid on the barrel of utensils slowly open, and a rich and heavy smell suddenly appeared.

Everyone was immersed in this rich aroma of wine, Diao Chan and Zhang Ning were the first to stand it, the two of them were already overwhelmed by the wine, not to mention the taste of this puree liquor with the highest purity, the two women grabbed Lu Bu's arm tightly from the left and right before standing still.

At this time, it was Dian Wei who was the first to speak, his ugly face looked a little terrifying under the dim light, he wiped his mouth honestly and said: "Lord, what kind of wine is this, it's really fucking fragrant, I have never smelled such a fragrant smell." ”

Several other people also nodded busily, they were all frequent visitors to the wine country, such a strong wine aroma made them fascinated one by one, Guo Jia moved the fastest, picked up a long-handled spoon next to him and waited to scoop some wine.

Dian Wei was the last to come, he was tall and strong, he lifted the somewhat thin Guo Jia behind him with one hand like a chicken, snatched the spoon containing half a bowl of wine, handed it to Lu Bu and said, "Lord, you should taste such a good wine first." Although he said this, the Adam's apple rolling up and down and the look in his brass bell-like eyes all expressed his longing mood at the moment.

Lu Bu took the wine and looked at the people around him, except for the two women, the rest of the people had general expressions, and even the workers in the distance stopped their work, but they didn't dare to come closer, but they all raised their heads and inhaled vigorously, as if they wanted to inhale all the aroma into their chests and lungs.

Lu Bu, who came from modern times, knew that this kind of liquor could not be drunk directly, although it was not the kind of industrial alcohol that could hurt people's lives, but after all, it was also a highly purified liquor, and no matter how good the amount of alcohol was, the consequences of drinking it directly would be unconscious, but he suddenly had the idea of teasing Dian Wei.

You must know that relying on the foundation of his experience in the modern wine field, Lu Bu has always been known as the overlord of wine in ancient times, but he never thought that he would abdicate and make way for Xian after meeting Dian Wei, in his own words, it is simply a bottomless pit.

The corners of Lu Bu's mouth suddenly hung a narrow smile, most of the people around him were people who were very familiar with Lu Bu, and when they saw this signature smile, they knew that someone must be unlucky, except for Liu Chong and Wang Neng, who met for the first time, and then Dian Wei, who was nervous, he was still looking at the golden wine with his eyes at the moment.
