Chapter 261 Distilled spirits, a sip of stuffy
In the courtyard of Han Cheng's house in Qingque Village, there is a strong aroma of wine wafting back and forth.
In one room, a fire was burning, and a clay pot had a lid with a hole in the middle and a bamboo pipe in the middle of the joint.
The smell of wine flowed down the bamboo pipe from the clay pot.
The bamboo pipe is very long, not one, and after extending up about twenty centimeters, there is already a turn.
In the middle of the bamboo pipe is placed a vat of ice water, and the bamboo pipe passes through the tank, most of which is soaked in ice water.
This is to cool down and turn the steam into water.
In order to make the effect even better, Han Cheng also deliberately made the bamboo pipes here very thin.
At the other end of the bamboo pipe, there are drops of cooled wine, dripping down into the jar placed below.
Distilling liquor and extracting high-grade liquor is a necessary skill for almost every traverser.
As a member of the traversers, and also an existence that has traveled to historical time and space, Han Cheng is naturally no exception, and he is also good at this skill.
And after some tinkering with it, there is now a high-grade liquor that has been distilled.
Distilling the liquor was not a whim of him, but a deliberate process.
The most direct reason is to prepare for the battle of Liaodong later.
Chili peppers, wine, these are all very good things to keep out the cold, and at some critical moments, they belong to the things that can save lives.
This thing of chili pepper is definitely not something that can be made in a short period of time, after all, the place where this thing grows is too far away from the Great Sui.
Even if Han Cheng set out to look for it at this time, when he returned, let alone the battle of Liaodong, maybe even Li Shimin had already launched the Xuanwumen Revolution and successfully became the second emperor of Li Tang.
It's impossible to have a chili pepper, but the high sake is something to try at once.
There was no shortage of raw materials, and he knew some of the principles, so he quickly put them into action.
Moreover, distilled spirits are not just for the sake of getting a high spirit, but also to get some alcohol.
High alcohol can be used to keep out the cold, and alcohol can be used to wipe wounds, which can reduce wound infection to a certain extent.
Either way, it can be used to save lives.
With these benefits, Han Cheng would naturally attack it.
"Incense! It smells so good! I've never smelled such a fragrant wine! ”
Han Li, who was walking a little lame, walked in, sniffing incessantly, exclaiming, his eyes watching the jar that received the wine refused to move away, and a light was about to burst out from it.
When Han Cheng saw this, he knew that he would have less of these wines.
He took out a small bowl, placed it under the bamboo tube, took the small half bowl of wine and handed it to Han Li with a smile.
"Grandpa, how about tasting this wine, the strength of the wine may be a little strong, you drink it slowly."
Han Li stretched out his hand to take it, he had already been tempted by the aroma of this wine, and at this time, he finally got this wine, how could he still hold back?
"It's okay, the heavier the better, our men in the north just like to drink strong wine! And your grandfather usually drinks a lot! ”
As he said this, he brought the wine bowl to his mouth, tilted his neck and poured all the small half bowl of wine into his mouth, which was very heroic.
However, after this wine reached his mouth, Han Li was not as heroic as Fang Cai.
His eyes widened, his face turned red, and his mouth pursed tightly.
Han Li said that he often drank alcohol, which was a big deal, after all, it was not cheap at this time.
Judging from the fact that Han Cheng came over to the Han family, Han Li obviously couldn't do the things he said.
However, there was one thing Han Li was really right, he was indeed a lover of wine.
Suddenly drank such a strong wine, but did not waste a drop.
A large sip of wine, after lingering in his mouth for a while, was counted by him in his stomach.
After swallowing, he did not speak immediately, but held his breath tightly to prevent the smell of alcohol from going out.
After a long while, he just let out a long breath.
"Good wine! It's really good wine! ”
He couldn't help coughing a few times, the heart-rending kind.
But he didn't pay attention to these, the afterglow of coughing hadn't disappeared yet, so he looked at the wine that kept dripping down, and praised it loudly, looking shocked, just like Han Xiaoya saw fried fish.
When Han Cheng saw his father's appearance, he gave a thumbs up with admiration.
It's a good wine indeed!
Han Cheng took the wine bowl from Han Li's hand, and handed him a small half bowl, this time Han Li didn't dare to take a sip like before, and in his hand, he took small sips, slowly savoring it, looking extremely enjoyable.
However, his enjoyment didn't last long, not because Han Cheng was reluctant to let him drink it, but because after only two small bowls of wine like this, Han Li had already fainted and was carried back to his room by Han Cheng to sleep.
The ancients, who were accustomed to drinking low-alcohol alcohol, were so vulnerable after encountering high-alcohol alcohol.
When Han Cheng was a child, when he watched Jingyanggang fight tigers, he saw Wu Song drinking eighteen bowls of wine in a row, and he was immediately shocked, and felt that this person's alcohol consumption was really good.
Now that he has come to this era, Han Cheng found out that it was not that Wu Song was particularly able to drink, but because the alcohol content was relatively low in ancient times.
If it's a 52-degree two-pot head, or a stuffy donkey, pour him eighteen bowls and let him drink it, but I'm afraid he won't be able to lift it.
Don't say that if you go to Jingyanggang to fight tigers again, I'm afraid that the whole person will have to sleep there for a good time......
The fire in the room was still burning, and the smell of wine was permeating the room, and Han Xiaoya was ordered by Han Cheng not to enter this room.
It's not because the room is not warm enough, but because this girl was drunk by these wines before.
Giggling and laughing, he ran into the snow and somersaulted, riding on the dog of the Luo Shixin family, holding the dog's neck and refusing to come down.
The grievances that tossed the dog looked really pitiful.
Since experiencing such a scene, Han Chengcheng didn't let Han Xiaoya come here.
The little girl was dizzy, but she was no more worry-free than adults.
"Teacher, this wine is too strong to drink violently, you need to take a small sip of the ...... in your hand."
In Li Jing's mansion in Mayi County, Han Cheng looked at Li Jing and reminded him heartily.
The dignified Li Jing is also a person who has seen the world, he has drunk too much in this life, how big can the wine be?
And this kid bought a lot of ordinary wine in the county some time ago, and he knows about it.
How strong can the sake made from such sake be?
Without waiting for Han Cheng to finish speaking, Li Jing raised his neck and smothered the bowl of wine......
