Volume 2 The Wind and Clouds Between the Rivers Chapter 217 A Little Showmanship
Chi Qiu smiled, glanced at Wu Laohan, and said happily: "Uncle, it's okay, since I moved this wine, I'll just buy it." Don't worry, I won't run, what is this wine? Chi Qiu picked up another kind of red wine and was amused when he saw it, the name of the other red wine was "Changyu".
"How much is this Changyu wine?" Chi Qiu's heart was happy, and he couldn't help but ask.
"It's cheaper, a tael of silver." Old man Wu laughed when he saw Chi Qiu, and his heart was also a little lighter.
"Open a bottle for me." Chi Qiu smiled and motioned to open the bottle in his hand first.
After confirming that it was correct, Wu Laohan opened the bottle of red wine, and the mellow red liquid instantly diffused with a thick and attractive fragrance.
In order to realize the dream of "rejuvenating the country through industry", Mr. Zhang Bishi invested 3 million taels of silver to establish the "Changyu Brewing Company" in Yantai, which opened the prelude to China's wine industrialization. As far as Chi Qiu knows, the kite capital is also near Yantai. Any traverser has a small emotion of changing history, or even spoofing, saying a good "don't copy in vain as a traverser", saying something that doesn't sound good, and satisfying his own little fun. Chi Qiu was very willing to give some names to the gold and silver beads sent by the Hetao tribe, and their names were either this Weiyi Diali gold beads, or Ale Shuli silver beads, which were too complicated, Chi Qiu was very happy to name them "Zijuan" and "Raider" or something at first, and even remembered "Baochai" and "Yinchai", but unfortunately it was too wrong, and then slowly lost interest, after all, some things still need a little artistic conception.
Speaking of plagiarism, Chi Qiu didn't know how to copy poems, but he just came to eat sand in the desert all day long, facing a group of illiterate people, and copied it in vain.
Later, when I came to Guanzhong, I found that some could not be copied indiscriminately, "The good situation in front of me is not good, Cui Hao's inscription poem is on top!" ”。 There was Zhuyu in the past, and there was Jia Dongpo, a "big copyist", and Zhao Qi, a "small copyist", and Chi Qiu didn't know which poems could be faked as "original".
There are a few small problems here, Chi Qiu is a little entangled, "Quantang Poems" alone "has more than 48,900 poems, more than 2,200 people", a total of 900 volumes, 13 volumes of catalogs.
The compilation of "All Song Ci" has collected more than 1,300 lyricists and nearly 20,000 lyrics. Kong Fanli's "Supplement to the Whole Song Dynasty" added 100 lyricists and more than 400 lyrics.
Around 700 A.D., the Wuyue Continent was catastrophic, Li Bai, Du Fu, and Bai Juyi were estimated to have died in military disasters, and Su Shi, Ouyang Xiu and other parents and grandparents died in military disasters and were not born, let alone Nalan and Bohu. Chinese poetry has been around for hundreds of years, and it was not until the era of Jia Dongpo that Tang and Song poems set off a small peak, but after the change of Jingkang, they declined again, and a large number of nouns and sentences were not born.
However, Chi Qiu, an ordinary soldier, knows most of the poems that are famous poems and nouns, and there are no more than a hundred poems in the sky. Not to mention how many of these hundred poems have come out, most of them still have a lot of "golden wind and jade dew when they meet, but there are countless in the world" and other estimates he has forgotten.
Another example is "Pipa Xing", it is estimated that he only knows "big beads and small beads falling on the jade plate", and even even
The front "noisy, cut, wrong, and miscellaneous bullets" can't be recited.
When he entered Guanzhong, Chi Qiu once looked at Hanzhong from afar, and shouted two sentences, "Shu Road is difficult, Shu Road is difficult, and it is difficult to go to the blue sky...... and then it was stuck. This cultural person is not easy to show!
In the end, Chi Qiu made full preparations in the Qinglou of Chang'an, and copied the eternal quatrain "When is the Bright Moon", but was laughed at by the sand sculpture of the Qinglou Oiran behind the scenes, and ordered someone to investigate, only to know that there is an eternal figure of Jia Dongpo in this world, and since then Chi Qiu has never dared to get involved in the field of "cultural people" again.
After all, cultural people have the sophistication of cultural people, even if they can fool people for a while, once the proposition is proposed, it will definitely slap the face, and the key is that Chi Qiu can remember good verses, Jia Dongpo used some, the legendary Dazai Zhao Qi used some, and some "anonymous" poets also used a lot. There is no one in the Wuyue Continent to help you sort out and summarize and make a "knowledge network". Chi Qiu really doesn't know which poems have been "borrowed" and which ones haven't, so he can always memorize every collection of poems.
In case you get it wrong, some famous prostitutes are not so easy to fool.
It's better to be "Xiang Shaolong" with peace of mind, occasionally be a little proud, take care of relatives and friends around you, and devote yourself to benefiting the people.
This wine is named "Changyu", and Chi Qiu does not feel infringement, after all, the kites are also in Yantai, so he should pay tribute to Mr. Zhang Bishi.
Speaking of this Kite Du Pu family is also a bit interesting, the founding ancestor Puqing Gong is a cattle man, when the strength of the Weilan Principality declined, there were people in Laidi who rebelled, and he was unable to go eastward, so he let him go alone to quell the rebellion, this person scattered all his wealth, recruited down-and-out knights in Ludi, only a few hundred people, after many years of sweeping Laidi, established the Kite Capital. The Duchy of Weilan broke his promise and did not reward him and his knights, so he established himself as the Duchy of Puqing and canonized the knights of Ludi who came with him as lords, which the world called the "Prussian Regiment".
Chi Qiu once studied the evidence, thinking that this "Prussian regiment" was definitely a coincidence, not a deliberate plagiarism of the "Duchy of Prussia", the two are really similar, and a principality that was founded earlier than the founding of the country appeared on the land of the Eastern Continent. But now that there is "Changyu", he thinks that it doesn't seem to be as simple as he thinks, there may be a hidden "companion" that he needs to discover, whether he is already ancient or alive, Chi Qiu's interest in the "Puqi Principality" suddenly arises, and the hatred for defeating him two months ago and letting him see his own soldiers die in battle is instantly much less.
Chi Qiu was immersed in the mellow aroma of wine, his thoughts were melodious, and he unconsciously chanted: "Grape wine glow-in-the-dark glass!" ”
Sobered up a little and sighed: "Your porcelain cup is too undesirable." ”
Wu Laohan has never drunk this wine, whether it is a sobering wine, a glass, not to mention a goblet, he looked confused, and said in surprise: "I'm waiting for a small shop, where is there a luminous cup, the little old man only heard of the overnight pearl, what kind of treasure is the luminous cup?" He looked back at the crowd, and everyone around him shook their heads.
"Wine Luminous Glass...... What's next? ”
A woman's voice came from behind Chi Qiu, like a silver bottle bursting, brake
That made the room look weird.
Before he turned back, Chi Qiu saw that everyone stood up and bowed: "Little county lord." ”
Chi Qiu settled down, looking back, under the light of the lamp, the little county lord was wearing a scarlet cloak, his skin was like snow, and the shadow of the candle flame set off a slender posture and the beauty of the light, Chi Qiu said in a lost voice: "Are you here?" ”
Hey, Chi Qiu suddenly felt a few glances on the back of his head, like acupuncture, and the cold wind that he had just tasted the wine and didn't realize made him shudder, and he said the wrong thing again? Chi Qiu really owes a lot today.
Sure enough, Yan Su'er's complexion changed suddenly in an instant, and her murderous eyes stared at him coldly: "What, just want you to eat supper, and don't let me be hungry at night?" Shopkeeper, bring me a bowl of clear soup and somen noodles. ”
"Eh, eh, here it is!" Wu Laohan didn't think there was anything wrong, the little county lord also often patronized his small shop, she only ate clear soup and noodles at night, and the girl's family always felt that the mutton was fishy, and it was not refreshing to sleep with that smell.
Yan Su'er waved his hand: "You guys sit down, let's Yanhu don't have this red tape, I'm just coming to eat a bowl of noodles." Saying that, she took off the cloak in her hand, revealing her beautiful and toned figure: "Where's the eldest mother?" ”
"Aunt Wu just went out to find her son." Some neighbors said.
"Oh." Yan Su'er swept her eyes and went straight to Chi Qiu's table: "What poem did you just read?" ”
"Grape wine glow-in-the-dark cup, if you want to drink the pipa, immediately urge ......," Chi Qiu said casually.
Yan Su'er glanced at the wine in Chi Qiu's hand, she rarely drank alcohol, but it did not include wine, her eyes flashed: "What about the back?" As he spoke, he went to the counter and got a wine glass, and poured himself a glass: "I haven't drunk it for a long time, but I didn't expect there to be wine here." After saying that, he drank it all.
"Back?" Yan Su'er looked at the wine closely, went to get a cup again, and came back to pour the wine, drinking, Chi Qiu was a little dizzy: "Don't laugh when you are drunk and lying on the battlefield...... How many people have returned to the ancient war? "The question mark of Chi Qiu is not the original question mark of the poem, it means to ask Yan Yu'er, whether I am right or not.
Yan Su'er heard his doubts and was stunned: "The poems you made? "The pretty face is elegant and refined, bright and beautiful.
"What's the matter, this ......" Chi Qiu couldn't remember that this poem was written by Wang Han, and asked, "I'm not wrong." ”
Yan Su'er looked at Chi Qiu, blinked, and said, "Back? ”
Out of the corner of his eye, Chi Qiu found that everyone present was looking at him strangely.
"Have you heard this poem?" The little county lord asked.
Everyone shook their heads.
Chi Qiu's heart was beating wildly, didn't this poem come out? No, such a simple verse, catchy, he memorized it, let alone others.
Yan Su'er's expression didn't seem to be fake, but she didn't mean to dig deeper: "Who did it if you didn't do it?" "As I said earlier, there are tens of thousands of Tang poems, and there are 20,000 Song poems, even if the poetry of the Wuyue Continent is not prosperous, there are more than 10,000 of them, and no one has edited the "Wuyue Poetry Record", and those here, including Yan Su'er, are not considered talented and talented, and it is normal to not know.
Chi Qiu slashed
took a sip of wine and said with a wry smile: "How do I know, I heard someone say in the teahouse in Luoyang that it may have been done by a certain poet in Guanzhong, and it has not been passed down yet." ”
This statement makes perfect sense, after all, Wuyue is not a unified country at this time, except for Lusong, which has a taste of cultural revival, Hejian and Beidi are basically still in the state of "everyone comes to practice martial arts together", and they only think the poetry is good, but they are not very enthusiastic. At least the talented people here are not as popular as the samurai.
"What is the name of this poem? Could it be that this is the wine written in it? "The kind-hearted old neighbor is a talent, a little bit of literature and ink, most of the men in the river have joined the army, and he can be regarded as a country father who is both civil and military.
"It seems to be called "Liangzhou Ci"" Chi Qiu flipped through his mind, and vaguely remembered that it seemed to be what Wang Han had done, but he didn't dare to say it, after all, in the Wuyue Continent, who could tell if this poem had been "claimed"? As far as he knew, "Spring Snow in Qinyuan" was claimed by Dazai Zhao Qi.
The kind-faced old man muttered, "Liangzhou Ci"? Grape wine luminous glass, want to drink pipa immediately urge. Drunk and lying on the battlefield, how many people came back to fight in ancient times? The man joined the army and promised the country with his body, and life and death have long been put out of the way. If you have wine, drink it heartily! Happy! "He is fifty or sixty years old, although this banquet lake has not experienced any major battles since the reign of the city lord, but before that, battles were still commonplace, and the old man can be regarded as a drunk and lying on the battlefield.
"Little brother, can you give the old man a glass of this wine? A small cup is sufficient. ”
Maybe it's touching the scene, maybe it's remembering the comrades-in-arms, the old man please, can't refuse, Chi Qiu got up and went to the counter to get a few cups, plus two bottles of Changyu: "All the old gentlemen, can you drink this wine." ”
"No, no!" The kind-faced old man hurriedly refused.
Other old neighbors also said, "Just taste it." "One or two silver and a bottle, Pingshui meets, it seems that this politeness seems a little heavy.
Chi Qiu ignored it, so he opened a bottle, filled it for the old men, and poured a single cup for the big man next to him: "You have a cup too?" ”
The big man remained silent and puffed up: "Thank you!" ”
Chi Qiu raised his glass, drank with you, and said: "This wine actually originated from the Han Dynasty, when Zhang Qian went to the Western Regions and created the Silk Road, this fennel, pepper, carrots, and wine were brought in at that time. ”
No wonder, that poem is "Liangzhou Ci": "The geography of Yan'er is much better than others, and I can understand that Liangzhou is the Hexi Corridor." In the Wuyue Continent, the large map is quite precise, the coastline and the surrounding islands are marked quite clearly, and most of the princes' houses have a relatively detailed "Wuyue Eastern Continent Map". It is estimated that the "predecessors" can draw a map of China, but they cannot draw a "provincial map" or a "regional topographic map".
Chi Qiu had also seen the "Wuyue Donglu Map", but he was actually not satisfied, so he had nothing to do, and once remade the vertical version of the "Wuyue Donglu Quanyu Map" in Yanzhou,
The western boundary has been drawn to the Ural Mountains and the Aral Sea, and marked there as the West Kunlun Mountains and the West Queen Mother Sea, and Myanmar and Kalimantan Island, Singapore and Oceania are also marked as the country of Cangwu, Pangu Island, Chiyou Horn and Pangu Wild, of course, several countries in the east and the north also have new markings, although many of the boundaries in it are not clear about the current situation, but as long as there is this map, maybe there will be a war of words in the future, it will not be so passive, you can say more confidently: "Since ancient times, ......
Chi Qiu hopes in his heart that the children of Huaxia can have a broad vision and regard these places as the land of their ancestors, so as not to let some sour and rotten Confucians babble about the "eighteen provinces of the Han Dynasty" all day long, at least people of insight can fight for it.
"In the selection of wines, they are all based on the vintage, and the older the vintage, the purer the taste. Of course, it cannot be stored indefinitely, it has certain requirements for the storage method, first of all, the original wine is generally packed in oak barrels, in a cellar or somewhere in the sea, where the temperature is kept cool and there is little sunlight. The ideal wine cellar does not need to be very large, as long as there is enough space to be comfortable enough, the storage temperature is probably the best place in early winter, and it is stored for a few years before taking it out for bottling, this kind of bottled wine, when placed it can not stand like liquor, because it is made of ordinary pressing, there will be some impurities anyway, so the placement of the bottle should present a certain angle, so that some doping will precipitate to the bottom of the bottle. ”
"How do you know so much?" When the Suojin people occupied the river, the manor of the Suojin nobles had their own habit of making fruit wine, but at first it was only a storage method for grape or apple harvest, and the Sorkinsi people from the extremely cold area outside the Guanwai had a certain love for fruit wine, so that it had been developed to a certain extent, and the fruit wine, including wine, was circulated among the nobles, especially the nobles.
Yan Xu's mother, Yan Xu, was a delicate and elegant person, drinking a small glass of wine, especially wine, every night before going to bed.
When I was a child, I had a strong curiosity about the purple-red liquid in the cup, and I always thought that it was the blood of animals, and even thought that the witch of the vampire clan in the story that my mother heard when she was a child relied on drinking blood every day to maintain her appearance.
It wasn't until she carefully poured half a glass of wine and drank it that she loved it ever since.
Chi Qiu couldn't help but tremble, and Zhang Yu in the cup shook out a little, did you say too much? "Wine, I have also moved goods at the dock, and there is another fruit wine in Guanzhong." Chi Qiu said with a smile: "It's called Hennessy, and it's also made by repeated distillation of grapes, so the taste and alcohol content are not comparable to this Changyu wine." ”
Chi Qiu suddenly regretted setting the price of Hennessy too low, you must know that in the European Middle Ages, wine, known as liquid gold, the high price is still highly sought after, Chi Qiu feels that he has no marketing skills at all, obviously his winery is in Turpan, even if the production is high, it is difficult to transport it to Guanzhong, Chi Qiu is actually
Stupidly planting grapes in Yanzhou, producing and selling them by themselves, in fact, can be "hunger and thirst marketing", so that Hennessy sells as expensive as gold, anyway, selling one bottle is equivalent to selling a hundred bottles to earn, why bother to move 99 more bottles of bricks, effort.
Wasted such a bullish good name for no reason.
I suddenly remembered that I had read the lace news because of the popularity of "The Twelve Hours of Chang'an", which recorded that during the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty minister Yuan Zai embezzled pepper, and one kilogram of pepper was equivalent to a kilogram of gold at that time, and he actually hid sixty-four tons privately. Chi Qiu felt that poverty limited his imagination, even if Hennessy from the Western Regions only had a few cars and the price was high, as long as the reputation was good, he could make money.
Thinking of this, Chi Qiu couldn't help but advertise Hennessy: "This wine is also called red wine, the wine taste is actually made of natural fermentation of grapes, it can be said to be a thicker juice, especially suitable for women and the elderly to drink, if you drink a glass before going to bed at night, it will be sweet to sleep." ”
Yan Su'er nodded again and again.
"And Hennessy in the Western Regions has some flavor of liquor, the alcohol content is extremely high, similar to the Du family's liquor, the wine is rich, the taste is smooth, with floral, fruity, pepper, cloves, cinnamon, very charming, wonderful. Moreover, good Hennessy needs to be stored for more than ten years or even decades, and it is also called the water of life in the Western Regions. Chi Qiu searched for all kinds of words in his mind, thinking that if one day, he could open a business road, and then let Hennessy make a good profit in the river and even in the south of the Yangtze River, thinking of the business road and thinking of Xing Jia and Jia Xing, by the way, he also promised them to make Tianzhu divine oil, this matter was almost forgotten, no, no, I have to quickly train a secretary out, there are too many things to make money in this world, and I am completely a little lacking.
