Chapter 279
In this way, a few days have passed, and the distillation process Xu Dashan's family has gradually learned, and because of the exquisite wine-making skills, it is more mellow than the wine made by his own half-hanging. Several large jars of distilled spirits have been baked, and now the problem of sales is to be solved.
Distilled spirits, mainly liquor in China, this highly purified method, its cost is relatively high, so its price must not be low. Although I don't know what kind of impact my little butterfly has brought to this world, if it is as it is now, the sun rises and the moon sets, everything in Datang seems to be running along history. Then the Anshi Rebellion is not something that you can prevent.
After the outbreak of the Anshi Rebellion, both Chang'an and Luoyang soon fell, and he had an official and a half-position in the imperial court, unless he defected to the rebels, otherwise he could not keep any more property in Chang'an. Then there is no need to open this restaurant and open a chain store or something. Now all I have to do is to sell the liquor as soon as possible, make money immediately, and then use the money to do many other things. Speaking of which, the funds in his hands are only 100 guan that Yang Qing'er got from taking him as ginseng that day, and he has paid off large and small debts, and the rest is only 40 guan. It can be regarded as self-made, as for the support of the family, it is fortunate that they do not oppose it when it comes to business.
The operation of the restaurant, the purchase, and the distillation can all be handed over to Xu Dashan's family. There must be a lot of money to be spent on this. And he also has to decorate this tavern with some necessary decorations, which can be borrowed from his father's courtyard, at this time, although those nobles and nobles may not know how to be fresh and elegant, but there are naturally a lot of vassal elegance. Yibo considered turning the restaurant into a high-end leisure club. If you want to play your own liquor brand in a short period of time, if you go through the general process, it will inevitably take too much time, but you have an advantageous condition, that is, you have such a group of fox friends and dog friends.
If they go to ask Song Yuan and Zhang Qi to help publicize it now, they may agree with their relationship, but they will inevitably be underestimated, and the effect is not necessarily good. If you want them to help you sell this "cheap industry", it is estimated that the motivation is not enough. Yi Bo was worried about this matter, but he really said that Cao Cao Cao had arrived, and someone outside the mansion seemed to shout: "Yibo, you kid has not been seen for so many days, where did you die, are you a girl at home?" It was Zhang Qi's voice. Yi Bo hurriedly ran out and stopped the kid's howl: "Can't you just be quiet?" This roared so that our whole family knew about it, and when we got home, we would have to be reprimanded by our parents again......"
"Yo, when are you afraid of your parents, is this a fall and a sudden change of character......" Zhang Qi laughed. Zhang Qi is dressed luxuriously, wearing a crown of gold and jade, and a vassal elegance in his hand holding a paper fan, looking elegant, but with this thick voice, he feels a little nondescript. "Let's be low-key, low-key understand...... Why are you dressed like this today, say, are you going to take a fancy to a girl from a certain family, and are you going to play tricks to seduce you......" Yi Bo teased.
"Well, don't look at who I am, if I want to seduce those girls and young ladies, do I use any tricks, I said, as long as it's a woman, a look, a smile, which one doesn't come up obediently and automatically dedicate himself......" Zhang Qi said disdainfully. He has a pair of sexy peach blossom eyes and looks quite handsome. It's really popular with those big girls and little daughters-in-law. Known as the Peach Blossom Boy. This is a joking title, but he thinks it fits his personality very well, and he is determined to carry forward this title. "Ahem, then, you seem to have forgotten who the personal ...... "Yi Bo hits"...... Heaven and earth, looking at Shenzhou, such a person has not yet been born......" Zhang Qi was full of pride.
"Right next to you...... Qing'er......" Yi Bo reminded. Zhang Qi looked at Yi Bo with monster-like eyes: "Did you say Yang Qing'er, she is really beautiful, but her temper is ...... Tsk, do you also treat her as a woman......" Yi Bo glanced at Yang Qing'er who was smiling on his face, well, the calm before the storm, the tragedy is about to happen, of course, you can't see death without saving it, in order to avoid the fire at the city gate and the pond fish, Yi Bo hurriedly said: "Actually, Qing'er is called natural and straightforward, Huixin Lanqin, this is as good as it is, do you say it's ......"
After speaking, Yi Bo couldn't help but feel ashamed, according to Zhang Qi's temper, he should immediately refute it later, and he would cite countless examples to prove that he was pushing him into the fire pit. Sure enough, Zhang Qi waved his sleeves and shook his fan: "Fallacy, big fallacy...... " Then he noticed Yi Bo's unbearable look, and felt that something was wrong, and finally glanced at a person standing next to him out of the corner of his eye, although he didn't see it really, but he didn't have to think about it to know who was coming. Cold sweat broke out on his head, but this thing was also witty, his face did not change and his heart did not beat, and he pretended not to see anything: "Yibo, I didn't say you, Qing'er looks like a fairy, this temper is also rare, ordinary people can meet it, this is a woman, it's just a goddess......" After saying this, without waiting for Yi Bo to reply, he naturally understood that it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time: "That, I still have something to do, so I ......will go first" Then he didn't squint, and walked away with big steps, as if he didn't notice Yang Qing'er's existence at all.
"It's quite similar, but for the sake of his superb acting skills, I'll let him go this time......" Yang Qing'er was dressed casually, like the little girl next door, looking fresh and lovely, and said to Yi Bo with her little head. In fact, he just felt it......" Yi Bo sighed, seeing that Yang Qing'er's face was wrong, he quickly changed his words: "But his exclamations are generally nonsense......" Yang Qing'er pursed his lips: "I didn't expect you guys to gossip more than girls, and talk bad things about others behind your back, I'm too lazy to worry about you, what are you doing these days, why haven't you even seen a shadow......
"A wine ...... was developed It's delicious" Yi Bo said, seeing that Yang Qing'er didn't seem to be interested in this, he asked: "Then what is the matter with you coming to me......" Yang Qing'er took out a red invitation card from his body and handed it over: "That's it......" "Whose ...... Wouldn't it be a girl from a family who invited me to support the scene for a big wedding?" Yi Bo asked as he untamed it. "It's stinky and beautiful enough, which girl and miss invite you to really ask for your own hardship, just like you, don't scare everyone, but you can increase a little pride, because the groom is at least more handsome than you......" Yang Qing'er easily pushed back.
Yi Bo took it apart, lowered his head and read it, a little funny: "Birthday party? Lion House? An Qingxu? What's going on, I haven't settled accounts with him yet, is he having a happier life, or thinks this birthday party is not lively enough, and wants me to make a fuss" "Provocation...... This is a blatant provocation! Yang Qing'er learned Song Yuan's tone, then stuck out her tongue and smiled playfully: "Probably, that's it...... We all received invitations, Song Yuan had already gone, and Zhang Qi had also gone, so I invited you" "No wonder Zhang Qi is dressed up like this, ha, he is showy, I thought he was going on a blind date." So aren't you going?" Yi Bo asked when he saw that she was dressed simply, not like she usually traveled.
"How can I go to this gathering of you big men, but if you go, I will be wronged and pretend to be a little girl to take a look......" Yang Qing'er smiled. This banquet is a good opportunity, this lion building banquet is indispensable, "dare to be so ashamed, this is already a first-class spirit, ordinary people are only three bowls, people will pour it immediately, as for you, but half a bowl, hahaha......" An Qingxu smiled. Shopkeeper Yu was also very dissatisfied with this statement: "Oh? So have you ever drunk stronger wine, take it out and let everyone see it...... "This is already a first-class spirit, and the people of the Central Plains dare not drink it easily, only the Hu people dare to drink it." He didn't believe that this man could come up with stronger wine.
Some liquor that is less than 20 degrees Celsius, and the liquor distilled by yourself is 50 or 60 degrees high, but this is a good opportunity to let the liquor show its face. "There really is such a wine, and it can be sold in a restaurant not far away...... Yi Bo replied. An Qingxu smiled, he tasted all the fine wine in Chang'an City, if there was really such a restaurant, how could he not know it, this must be his prevarication: "Then what are you waiting for, just take it and know it......"
"This wine is carefully brewed, I'm afraid the price is a bit..."Yi Bo deliberately dragged out his breath. Ha...... You kid actually raised the price with me, is there still wine in Chang'an City that I can't afford to drink, you just have to take it......" An Qingxu laughed.
I could only hear An Qingxu screaming and singing in that room, like a wolf howling, like a dog barking, like a pig noisy, his voice was simply unbearable, leaving an indelible shadow in the hearts of these scholars. This image is completely ruined.
After that, it finally quieted down, Yi Bo thought, this should be a fainting, this era of drunkenness is not enough, An Qingxu took seven or eight bowls of high liquor in one go, if he doesn't treat it in time, he will be a little braindead if he doesn't become mentally retarded. Sure enough, a person came out of it, saying that Young Master An had fallen asleep, and that he could not participate in today's banquet, so please take care of yourself. What this means is that those who want to stay still have something to eat, and those who don't want to stay will not be kept, and this banquet is about to be dispersed.
As the second protagonist of today's events, Yi Bo hurriedly continued his liquor promotion plan, at this time, he did not charge any advertising fees, and had a great opportunity to release the name of Drunken Immortal Building. "If you're interested. You can go to the drunken fairy building to taste wine, this wine is called liquor, the sketch is pleasant, and it is beneficial to the body and mind, but if you drink white water like Young Master An, don't come, the shopkeeper doesn't care about sending you home......"
Everyone laughed and was very curious, because after all, they only smelled the aroma of wine, but did not drink the real wine, and they couldn't help but feel a little unfinished. I was secretly thinking about when I had to go for a drink. This is to take advantage of people's curiosity, at this time to arouse people's appetite, they will naturally obediently pay for wine, and then buy more people, can induce the heart of the herd, liquor will not worry about the problem of sales. Zhang Qi and Song Yuan came to save face, Yang Qing'er came with him, at this time, since An Qingxu was already drunk and unconscious, he didn't want to stay in this place anymore, so he said goodbye and left.
As soon as they walked out of the gate of the Lion Tower, Song Yuan and Zhang Qi looked up to the sky and smiled, Song Yuan couldn't stop patting Yi Bo's shoulder: "Okay, yes, this trick is really clever, I think An Qingxu's kid can't wake up without shedding his skin, and I can't see that your kid can still come to Yin......" Zhang Qi nodded hurriedly: "This is really a bad breath, usually An Qingxu's kid is dragged like something, it's good now, don't think about raising your head in front of us in this life, especially that An Yu's kid."
A little minion still has no one in his eyes, today I saw that he was beaten like a dog by An Qingxu, and he didn't say a word, he could only endure it, he really laughed to death like that" Yi Bo looked innocent: "How can it, didn't you find that I have been persuading him not to drink more......" "Haha, don't pretend in front of us, you already know An Qingxu's kid's temper, the more you persuade him not to drink, the more he drinks happily, please don't like to provoke the general, it's really a trick, besides, you ......" Song Yuan smiled. "Boss, in the future, we will treat you as the boss, you helped us out of the evil spirit, in the future, go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, only you are the first to look forward. Anyway, did you plan to do this early on, it's really hidden......" Zhang Qi said.
"Don't, I don't want to go to the Sword Mountain and the Sea of Fire to hang out, you should also stop and learn some serious skills, this world is about to change......" Yi Bo reminded. That's all he can do now, although these friends are idle, but they really have a bit of friendship with themselves, and when the troubled times come, I hope they can have a good place to go. "Boss, well, this is really a little unaccustomed, what do you mean by the big rebellious words that An Qingxu said at the end, does he want to rebel......" Song Yuan asked. Yi Bo shook his head and corrected: "It's him who wants to rebel......"
Zhang Qi didn't believe it: "I don't think so, many people have said that An Lushan will rebel, and the emperor didn't pay attention to it, it should be alarmist...... Yi Bo also knows that it is very troublesome to explain An Lushan's affairs to them, he can't say that he has been until the course of history, then they will treat themselves as fools, and this matter will have to be done." In addition, although An Qingxu said something rebellious in front of everyone's eyes today, it is difficult for him to have any substantial impact on him with the holy favor he is receiving now, and he can be excused from drunken gaffes, his current identity and status are relatively low, the so-called people are soft-spoken, and it is estimated that it is not easy to make a fuss about this.
After the two left, Yang Qing'er didn't go with them, and walked with Yi Bo, humming an unknown tune, obviously very happy. Yi Bo opened his mouth and said: "Hey, is it addicted to being a maid, well, but with Young Master Ben, there is naturally endless fun, very promising......"
Yang Qing'er smiled: "You want to beg for a fight again, right, but I'm in a good mood today, so I'll spare you, hey, what kind of wine are you, why are you so powerful......" "I wanted to tell you before, someone is not interested...... " Seeing Yang Qing'er's face indignant. still explained: "This wine is very strong, and only An Qingxu's kind of animal will drink him as white water, now, it is estimated that the kid has a good ......"
"Do you think he will die......" Yang Qing'er looked surprised. Hmm" Yi Bo didn't expect Yang Qing'er's innocent expression to ask such a ruthless question, "That, if he drank all that big jar, it would be very likely...... Now, I can't die, but it's necessary to be brain-dead or something......"
"Hehe, I didn't expect San Lang to be so benevolent...... Yang Qing'er sighed, "Thank you, you helped me solve a big trouble...... "Renyi, when will you still be the master who has done all the bad things, Yi Bo smiled helplessly, he is really not benevolent, he is just afraid of trouble." "I saw that he was not pleasing to the eye, your business is my business, and I am also waiting for the newspaper, some talented scholars, when they are poor, they will also sell words, write and copy books for a living, of course, this is a helpless move, unless it is a last resort, generally these meritorious literati will not do this kind of self-destructive thing.
Yi Bo took a small cigarette and found this calligraphy and painting shop called Xiao Yaxuan, but it is really a store as its name, a small square room, all kinds of calligraphy and paintings are neatly arranged, although the store furnishings are simple, but it does not lose its style, it looks fresh and elegant, reflecting the good intentions of the owner. Yi Bo looked at this arrangement, nodded, it seems that the shopkeeper is also an elegant person, so looking around, a young scholar, plain clothes and scarves came over: "This son, are you here to buy calligraphy and paintings......" Yi Bo shook his head and said: "It's not to buy calligraphy and paintings, but to ask someone to write a poem on the signboard, I don't know if you can ghostwrite for it......"
The young scholar immediately became interested: "If you want to write, you really have found the right person, no, I have been practicing calligraphy for many years, but I have delayed the imperial examination, but I still have a little success in this word, write it, I will definitely satisfy the son, if you are not satisfied, I will not accept your money......"
Looking at the young scholar's look of being ready to try, Yi Bo also put his mind at ease, "In this way, it will be troublesome......"
Master Cen and Dan Qiusheng here have not recovered from the shock, and Li Taibai over there has already fallen to the ground after chanting the poem. I don't think it's funny.
After Li Bai fell, Master Cen finally reacted and woke up. But instead of helping Li Bai, who was already drunk on the ground, he patted his head, and then looked at Yi Bo with some reproach: "It's over, it's over, I just cared about shocking and sighing, but I forgot to write down this poem just now, and I said that I want you to bring a pen and paper over......"
Yi Bo was puzzled: "This question is very simple, wait for Li Taibai to wake up, don't you just ask him again......" Dan Qiusheng also reacted, and said distressedly: "You don't know who he is, most of the time he doesn't remember anything after he wakes up, and then he will have a puzzled look, and he will ask us, hey, there is such a thing......" Dan Qiusheng learned Li Bai's tone.
No, this great poet was hot-headed for a while, drank and wrote poems, and he didn't even remember to go after that, which is really a bit funny, so how did Li Bai's poems come about, and, so in this way, are there many more shocking and vulgar works that are enough to be famous through the ages, and then they were forgotten by the great poet inadvertently, but I didn't expect there to be such a thing......
Master Cen continued: "Usually he writes poems when he is drunk, and we are responsible for transcribing them on the side, this person rarely writes poems if he is not drunk, if it weren't for us, I am afraid that many of his works would be lost for no reason...... Today's poem is sparse and ordinary, but it's a pity that such an amazing work is going to be lost, hey, hey, Dan Qiusheng, do you remember a few words......" "I patronized it to appreciate it at the time, and the impression was very vague, let's think about it, and then remind each other to see if we can piece it together to make a rough idea, and when Taibai wakes up, I don't believe he will forget it completely, let's knock on the side, it should still be able to restore his memory......" Dan Qiusheng said helplessly.
"Hey, it's come to this, and that's all it can be......" Master Cen sighed. Watching the two of them do everything possible to work hard for Li Bai's perhaps forgotten poems, but Li Bai is sleeping soundly on the ground, there is really a feeling that the emperor is not in a hurry and the eunuch is in a hurry, but on the other hand, if it is not for their thirsty attitude, it seems that many works in later generations will be lost, and this spirit is also worth learning. It seems that he can't pretend to be forced anymore, Yi Bo coughed: "That, it seems that don't use such a method, it's so troublesome......"
Master Cen glanced at him, and then said dissatisfied: "I asked you to take a pen and paper just now, procrastinating, and now you are talking cool words here, do you know what you think, you are young, maybe you really can't understand the wisdom of this poem, no, I can't talk nonsense with you anymore, it disrupted my train of thought, hey, which sentence did I just say......" It seems that he blames himself a little, but because of his bad identity and face, he made accusations, Yi Bo stepped forward and whispered: "Actually, no, this song will enter the wine, I was able to recite the ......"
Well, the expressions of the two people who were in a hurry and trying to recall the poem suddenly became a little weird, and then Dan Qiusheng shook his head and said, "You don't have to make trouble, but if you really remember, half a word, please tell me, thank you ......" "I'm talking about the full text......" Yi Bo was a little helpless. Then I knew that the best proof was to quickly recite this article, so I didn't miss a word and memorized Li Taibai's song just now. At the same time, there are some sighs in my heart, looking at Cen Fuzi Danqiu like this, he has just drunk wine, nervous anesthesia, and there seem to be some problems between his spirits, and his memory is estimated to be a little short-circuited, I am afraid that it is difficult to recall all the poems.
Master Cen and Dan Qiusheng finally reacted, and then Master Cen laughed: "Exactly, it is this poem, why can't I remember it in my head......" Dan Qiusheng sighed: "It's really terrifying, to be able to write down this poem word for word in such a short period of time, and recite it with emotion, amazing memory, talent, such a talent and ability, my generation really can't reach it, little brother, the two of us were offended just now, please don't mind, you really helped us a lot this time." ……”
Yi Bo was naturally modest: "Where, where" is just a gesture, "This is really disrespectful and deserved, as for whether he really has an amazing memory, this is naturally inconvenient to reveal, where did he say that he had only heard it once, just kidding, when I was in high school, I read it over and over again in a class, and it was difficult to remember it." As for being talented, he can really be regarded as gifted through rebirth.
Master Cen Dan Qiusheng asked Yi Bo to recite it again, then carefully copied it down, and read it carefully, and then finally discovered the protagonist of this matter, Li Taibai, who was lying in a corner and sleeping soundly. In the spring, the ground was still a little cold, and Li Bai was dressed casually, without adding any particularly warm clothes. If you sleep for a long time, you will inevitably catch a cold, but these two guys don't look like they want to help Li Bai up, Yi Bo looked at a generation of poets, and no one cared about him, shook his head, and helped him to sit up. It's a mistake to make friends in front of you.
Li Bai was really drunk, his mouth was full of wine, and when he went to help him, he was still shouting vigorously, "Bring the wine, continue to drink...... It's really a good wine......" Yi Bo stopped Li Bai, and then finally interrupted the two who were studying hard and concentrating: "That, what should Brother Taibai do......" Danqiu replied indifferently: "It's okay, don't care, you will wake up naturally after sleeping for a few hours, except for occasionally saying a few words of nonsense, he is still quite peaceful, but sometimes he will vomit, don't stand next to him, vomit on his body and get dirty, but it's not good to look at this benevolent brother as a matter of course, Yi Bo is quite speechless, Dan Qiusheng didn't know if his conscience found out, and said with some hesitation on the side: "This, I vomited in this restaurant, isn't it not good, it will damage the image of Brother Taibai's fairy wind bones, if not, let's send him away first......
Yi Bo nodded hurriedly, he really didn't have the potential to be a nanny, but this time, I didn't know where I would be able to meet this great poet again, so he hurriedly said: "How can I meet Li Taibai again, I still want to wait for Li Taibai to help me sell wine......
Although Master Cen doesn't know what sales means, but the person in business, the matter of the restaurant, can probably guess: "This, we don't know, today's encounter is completely accidental, but, today, here to eat and drink, except for Brother Taibai, he doesn't ask about these things at all, we have heard recently, know that this two silver and one or two wine, is your restaurant, but it is worth the money, this wine is really worth ......" Dan Qiusheng also said: "Little brother, don't worry, there are really not many fine wines that can make Brother Taibai so admired." , Today, Brother Taibai will not give up, he has to come to the restaurant to wander around, and with this first will enter the wine, such an amazing work, and only under the inspiration of such a fine wine, can it be made, little brother, your restaurant, it is a little difficult not to be famous......"
Yi Bo thought about it for a while, with Li Bai's fast and big signboard, it was difficult not to be popular, so he bowed his hand and made a salute: "In this case, it's annoying for the two of you......"
