Chapter 21 Eating and drinking spicy depends on it
Liu Bei was not only interested, but also gave his nephew face.
He called the soldiers and carried the wine jar to the small hall. Liu Bei and Guan Ping's soldiers entered the small hall, while Li Nian and other workers were left outside.
Immediately, Liu Bei ordered the maid to fetch the wine bowl, and then sat down. Guan Pingle picked up the wine jar and poured wine for the uncle.
"Incense." Liu Bei glanced down at the big wine in the wine bowl, and felt that the color was very good, and when he smelled it, it exuded a rich aroma of wine.
Liu Bei is not a drunkard, but he is also a drunkard. As soon as I saw it, I was aroused by the wine worm. However, he read Guan Ping and said that he took a sip, so he did not drink it all as usual, but took a sip of the wine bowl.
"Good wine." When the wine enters the throat, you can feel its fierceness, and when it enters the stomach, it is like a fire. Liu Bei couldn't resist for a while, his face turned red, and he held it for a long time before he exhaled a breath of wine and said.
Liu Bei's first thought was that this wine should be very expensive. Because Liu Bei has never drunk such a good wine in his life, whether it is the imperial wine in the palace, or Yuan Shao, Gongsun Zhan, or Xuzhou.
Liu Bei has been in exile for half his life, and most of the world has been there, but he has never drunk such a delicious wine.
Obviously, there is no better wine in the world than this wine. Liu Bei thought that this nephew didn't know where he got it, and Baba came to honor him.
I was very moved.
Then Liu Bei's thinking was exuded, so it was better to be happy alone than to be happy. So Liu Bei said: "Ping'er, you are very filial, uncle, I understand it." It's just that this wine shouldn't be exclusive to me, and I should share some of the profits for your third uncle, your father, and the civil and military forces in Xinye City. ”
Guan Ping looked puzzled after hearing this, and then understood that Liu Bei had something to do.
There's no need to sell off. Guan Ping knelt beside Liu Bei and said to Liu Bei: "My nephew knows that Liu Biao has recently deducted the lord's money and food, which has made me hungry in Xinye. The nephew did not offer this wine to the lord to drink, but to the lord to sell. If it can be done well, this wine can be exchanged for gold and silver, and it will roll in. ”
Liu Bei was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then lost his voice and said, "Ping'er, are you saying that this wine was not found by you, but made by you?" ”
Liu Bei is not stupid. And if this wine is made by this stinky boy, it is indeed promising. This wine. Liu Bei has never drunk it, and he has never tasted it.
Liu Bei believes that this wine is unique in the world, and people in the world are full of good wines. The most hateful thing is his stupid and cute third child, who likes to drink, has poor wine, and beats people after drinking.
Wine is Zhang Laosan's life. Liu Bei dared to bet, bet on his ambitions, and bet that Zhang Laosan would flock to this wine, no matter how expensive it was, he would save money to buy wine and drink.
"My lord guessed right, I made this wine." Guan Ping asked for credit, but it was unambiguous, his chest was straight, and he raised his head to show pride.
In fact, Guan Ping only provided ideas, and the credit was basically Li Nian.
But who cares about a winemaker.
The credit for this is his level, well. At most, add one more bud, no more.
After hearing this, Liu Bei was very moved, suddenly stood up, held his hands excitedly, and paced back and forth. Then he suddenly turned his head and asked Guan Ping, "Can this wine be brewed in a long time?" How much does it cost? ”
Although Liu Bei can't drink well, he is also a hero in wine. Knowing that there is a market for this wine, now there is only one question left, what is the cost of this wine, and how long does it take to make this wine.
The cost doesn't have to be explained. If it takes a year, or even two years, for the sake of the wine, it doesn't mean much.
It's been too long, and the daylilies are cold.
This stumped Guan Ping, because he didn't know anything about Sa. Guan Pingcancan smiled and said, "My nephew brought the brewing master, named Li Nian, you asked him to come over and tell you in detail." ”
"Someone, call that Li Nian over." Liu Bei immediately ordered. Not long after, Li Nian walked in from outside, bent down, and said humbly: "Villain Li Nian, I have seen General Zuo." ”
You must know that Liu Bei I is famous, and now he is the soil emperor of Xinye. When Li first saw Liu Bei, he didn't do it all at once, which was already very good.
"No need to be polite, just stand and talk." Liu Bei waved his hand, and then asked with concern: "How much does this wine cost, how long will it take?" ”
Li Nian calmed down and replied, "Back to General Zuo, this wine can produce five or six taels of wine for a pound of rice." It takes three to five days. The villain guesses that if it were summer, it might only take one day to brew. ”
Liu Bei almost fainted.
The answer was unexpected.
Even if this wine is made from a pound of wine from a hundred catties of rice, it will take half a month, and it is very promising. Now a pound of rice can actually make five or six taels of wine, the brewing time is three or five days in winter, and it only takes one day in summer.
Sky.
This wine is simply something that doesn't cost anything.
But it's a huge market.
"Confidentiality, this recipe must be kept secret." Liu Bei immediately realized the huge profits, and immediately beckoned to his soldiers: "Come on, go and invite General Chen to come over." ”
"No." The soldiers promised to go down.
"Ping'er, where does this wine come from? How many people know about this recipe? Liu Bei asked Guan Ping with a bright face.
"My nephew borrowed the Zhang family's brewing workshop, and the workers in it should know about it." Guan Ping said.
Liu Bei nodded, and at this time Chen Zhi walked in, dressed in white and with a sword hanging from his waist. "My lord." Chen Zhi has very few words, just these two words.
"Go and surround the Zhang family's brewing workshop, and the workers inside are not allowed to go out. Then circle the surrounding area. ”
Liu Bei said to Chen Zhi.
"No." Chen Zhi promised, turned around and went down to execute.
And Li Nianleng paused for a moment, and then his face turned a little pale, thinking, isn't General Zuo going to kill people?
"The lord is keeping it a secret, but also wants to expand his business?" Guan Ping guessed Liu Bei's thoughts and couldn't help but say.
"That's nature. This wine is definitely a good wine, and the price can be quite high. If the business is on fire, it is inevitable that some people will have crooked thoughts and have to take precautions. Not only should the workshop be expanded, but the workers should not be allowed to go out for ten years, and if they have family and children, they should also live in the workshop. Liu Bei nodded, his face still excited.
Li Nian was really relieved when he heard this, as long as it wasn't a murderous killing.
Guan Ping nodded and said, "The lord thinks about it." ”
In fact, Guan Ping also thought about this confidential matter, and he wanted to remind Liu Bei. But obviously Liu Bei is sophisticated and thoughtful.
There is no need to worry about Guan Ping.
"It's very competent. But then again, if Beibei can't do it, how can he become the emperor of the Third Han Dynasty? It's fun to be prepared, it's safe to be prepared, and it's good to be prepared. A happy smile appeared on the little face, and he almost grew a tail and wagked.
Long live Shu Han!!
