"Shhh......h

After taking a sip of the freshly distilled liquor, Li Yuanjia's whole face couldn't help but squeeze, and when his eyes opened again, he subconsciously took a breath of cold air and went in, trying to moisturize his ignited throat and stomach at the same time.

This wine is so strong!

Although I really want to eat some food or something now, looking at the books around him, Li Yuanjia decided to take two more breaths of air and ease the spicy energy.

After this momentum passed, Li Yuanjia was left with joy in his heart.

This degree, to say the least, is it more than forty?

As a loyal fan of beer, Li Yuanjia had no love for liquor in his previous life, and usually drank a little when he went out to meetings with the director. But fortunately, he has a hometown that loves to drink liquor, and although he tries his best to avoid it every time he goes back for the New Year, he can't help but drink two glasses with his elders and relatives after all.

After a long time, I have a bit of an appreciation for liquor, at least this approximate degree can still be drunk.

Judging by the sensation on the tip of the tongue and the burning sensation in the stomach and esophagus, Li Yuanjia's conclusion is that it is slightly stronger than 38 degrees, but it is not yet at the level of 50 degrees!

No matter how precise he was, he wouldn't have the ability to do it.

"Yes, well done!"

After making a rough judgment, Li Yuanjia nodded with great satisfaction, waved his big hand and said with a smile: "Reward!" Each of them was rewarded with two prizes! ”

"Yes, King!"

The corners of his mouth twitched twice, and Han Shan nodded helplessly.

He knew that if the king tasted the wine this time, it would definitely be another round of reward. But who made the king care so much about this distilled spirit? finally brewed a stronger wine, Han Shan really didn't dare to hide it and not report it, and fortunately, the rewards this time added up to ten times, which was not too distressing.

I heard that a deck of cards in Xinhua Bookstore can be sold ten times!

As soon as he thought of the Xinhua Bookstore in Dongshi, as well as the four treasures and cards of the study room that were being sold in the bookstore, Han Shan felt extremely congested - except for the first store that he touched, almost everything that followed had nothing to do with him. The supply is Wang Pu's business, and the remote command of the store is the work of his son Han Lucheng, who is the big housekeeper......

Tsk, I really can only manage the people in the palace.

In such a situation, how can Han Shan not have a sense of crisis? Especially when there are more and more new things in the mansion, sometimes he can't even understand what the king and those young stewards say, which makes Han Shan anxious, for fear that when he wakes up one day, the position of the chief butler of the Han Wang's Mansion will be changed!

Li Yuanjia naturally didn't know the grievances in the old housekeeper's heart at this time, of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't care too much.

Survival of the fittest, isn't that a matter of course?

At this time, Li Yuanjia was all focused on the liquor in front of him - he was still used to calling this thing liquor, but when he talked to Han Shan, he could only use distilled liquor. After all, the liquor of this year refers exclusively to the wine made from rice, and if Li Yuanjia insists, it will cause confusion.

Thirty-eight degrees up, it's really strong.

Compared with the so-called "spirits" that are conventionally a few degrees, or at most one or twenty degrees, the distilled spirits produced by Han Wangfu are undoubtedly the "king of wines"!

So no matter how you think about it, there must be a market for this thing.

Li Yuanjia took out ten jars of distilled liquor at his wedding before, which did not cause much repercussions, it is estimated that everyone is not used to the taste of this wine, just like after drinking mare's milk and goat's milk, it is difficult to get used to drinking tea; Second, because the weather is too hot in the middle of summer, no one wants to find guilt for themselves.

But in winter, the treatment of this high alcohol is probably another world.

The northern part of the Tang Dynasty is cold in winter, and if you shrink into a small nest to bring a small pot of high-grade liquor, with a stack of side dishes, the taste is ......

Li Yuanjia admired it, but he knew that many people would fall in love with it!

Merely......

"It's a pity, it's just that the cost is too high!"

Thinking of the cost of his distilled liquor, Li Yuanjia couldn't help but shake his head. To put it bluntly, there is nothing male about this thing, the principle is simple, that is, the boiling point of water and alcohol is different, and the alcohol with a lower boiling point is separated from the water by distillation.

It's just easy to say, but it's really not easy to do.

One is that it is difficult to control the temperature, and the other is the tightness of the distillation equipment, which has a great impact on the quality and yield of the distilled spirit. So these people in the house have been busy for so long, and now they have only made more than 40 degrees of liquor.

If this thing were to be sold, it would have to sell at least twenty times the price of ordinary wine to be considered a loss.

After all, ordinary rice wine only needs one jar to be enough, but distilled liquor requires well-designed distillation equipment, which consumes a lot of fuel, and has to be constantly supervised by people, and even a large barrel of brewed "original liquor" can distill a small barrel of high-grade liquor!

If the price is low, it will definitely make them lose money.

So no matter how you think about it, the customer base of this distilled spirit will not be ordinary people. At least until the price of iron comes down and the cost of liquor comes down, they don't want to be able to enjoy this spirit.

So after thinking about it, the only way Li Yuanjia can think of is to pack these distilled spirits in the top packaging, and then sell them to those who need to warm up in winter - civil officials and those literati and writers who have hundreds of poems about fighting wine don't have to think about it, even if they can withstand the strength of this wine, I am afraid they will not like the feeling of drinking in small sips, so the market capacity should not be large; But the generals who still have to be outside in the winter will definitely love this thing.

Think about it, come back from duty on a snowy day, warm up with a small pot of spicy wine, and fall asleep......

That's called a comfort!

And......

Do the nomads a little further north prefer this thing?

Their aristocrats were not like the magnates of the Tang Dynasty, who could live in airtight houses, and now they had coal stoves to help keep warm. For them, the demand for spirits is probably even stronger, right? And the price of liquor should be higher, there should be no problem, after all, for the grassland nobles who can afford to consume, it is nothing more than a matter of giving a few more cattle and sheep......

"Uh, King?"

Just when Li Yuanjia subconsciously began to think about whether this thing could make money, Han Shan next to him asked cautiously: "Are you still satisfied with this thing?" Do you need to keep them doing it? ”

"Satisfied? Hehe. ”

After coming back to his senses, Li Yuanjia raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "Although this wine is indeed quite strong, but if you want to say that it satisfies me, it is still far away......
