Chapter 52: Immortal Wine

A brewery.

Lu Bu took five winemakers and started his own winemaking business.

The improved distillation equipment has a large internal space, which can steam at least 20 catties of rice wine at one time.

Under the leadership of Lu Bu, the five winemakers were busy for a long time. When the white air rises from the stove and the aroma of the whole brewery fills the nose, everyone is excited and ecstatic.

"General, what kind of wine is this? Why is it so fragrant? ”

"Yes, we've been making wine for most of our lives, and we've never smelled such a strong aroma."

................

Lu Bu smiled and didn't reply. He took a bowl from the side and placed it under the distillation machine, and as the white gas increased, a very clear stream of wine flowed down the bamboo pipe.

Seeing that it was about to be full, Lu Bu picked up the wine bowl, couldn't wait to take a sip, and felt that the degree was not high, nor low, about thirty-eight degrees.

Although the degree is not as high as the modern one, this wine, without any additives at all, is really refreshing and delicious to drink, and has a faint fruity aroma, which is really the best in the wine!

"Would you like to take a bite?" Lu Bu looked at the five brewing masters in front of him, all of them staring at the wine bowl in his hand, and his mouth was drooling.

"Think about it..."

"Then take a bite, and it will be rewarded to you by this general."

"General Xie." The people took the bowl and drank it in large gulps. But because I drank too quickly, I choked and coughed for a while.

"Good wine! It's really good wine! After coughing, the five brewers all shouted excitedly.

Lu Bu said: "Everyone, from now on, you don't want to leave the brewery, help me make wine well, and the salary is three times that of the past!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes... General Xie. And the crowd shook each other.

"Someone."

"What does the general command?" A pro-soldier centurion walked in.

Lu Bu said: "Order the pro-guards to strictly guard all the breweries, paper mills, ceramics workshops, and blacksmith shops, and no one is allowed to enter or leave. ”

"No."

After leaving the brewery, Lu Bu went to the ceramic workshop, bought the ceramic workshop, and instructed the people inside to make 10,000 one-pound bottles.

At noon, the large and small breweries and paper mills in Xiapi City... All of them were controlled by the pro-guards, and no outsiders were allowed to approach, and no one inside was allowed to come out.

Lu Bu carried a pot of wine and swayed to the Spring Pavilion.

"Jin Lian, how about trying this wine?" Lu Bu smiled and handed the wine jug to Pan Jinlian.

Pan Jinlian took a sip and said in shock: "It's really good wine, Brother Fengxian, where did you buy it?" ”

"I made it myself."

"Huh? Is it much? ”

"As much as you want."

Pan Jinlian's eyes lit up, and she said happily: "Brother Fengxian, give me some wine, I will sell it in Yingchun Pavilion, and I will definitely be able to sell it at a good price." ”

Lu Bu smiled and said, "That's what I'm here for. Aren't you worried, you don't have enough money, to buy the inside, to make friends with the powerful, with this wine, you don't have to worry, right? ”

"Tomorrow, I'll bring you five hundred bottles, and you can try to sell them first."

"Yes."

Pan Jinlian said: "The price of such a good wine must not be too low. Brother Fengxian, do you have a number in your heart? ”

"The market price, 10 yuan a pound of wine, 30 yuan a pound of rice wine, 50 yuan a pound of alcohol, our wine, better than any wine, of course the price can not be low. I decided, tentatively set it at 500 yuan a catty, what do you think? ”

Pan Jinlian just took a sip of wine and almost choked: "Doom... Although this wine is very good, is it a bit expensive for 500 yuan a catty? ”

"Not expensive, not expensive... For wine lovers, a good bottle of wine is hard to find. As you will know later, this is the lowest price. Lu Bu stood up with a smile and prepared to leave.

"Brother Fengxian, are you leaving?"

"Well, I still have something to do."

Leaving Yingchun Pavilion, Lu Bu went to the paper mill in the west of the city.

Compared to winemaking, the papermaking process is much more complicated. Although the paper of this era has been improved by Cai Lun, it is all hemp, and the quality is very poor, at best, it is toilet paper level.

The most speechless thing is that the price of this paper is still very expensive, and it costs 5,000 yuan to buy a knife.

This made many nobles prefer to use silk rather than paper.

After walking around the paper mill, Lu Bu called the steward and said, "From now on, you must collect a large number of tender bamboos and white wax, replace all the utensils, and prepare a set of meticulous filtration equipment." All expenses are borne by the Assassin's Mansion. ”

"No."

In Lu Bu's view, if you want to make better paper, you must do two things. First, it is necessary to filter the debris more carefully and leave the purest pulp paste; Second, add a small amount of white wax to the pulp paste, with this thing, the paper will become whiter and more shiny.

Of course, this is just his conjecture, whether it will work or not, we will have to wait until the experiment is completed.

Two days later.

Pan Jinlian sells fairy wine in Yingchun Pavilion!

Immortal wine is the name given by Lu Bu, don't look at this name cheesy, but it is very revealing. Imagine the wine that the gods drink, can it be bad? But no one who hears this name does not want to taste it.

Lu Bu sat in the private room, sipping tea while waiting to watch a good show.

Pan Jinlian walked up to the high platform, took out a delicate bottle, and said: "Today's Spring Pavilion, there are not only singing and dancing, but also rare wine, it is said that this wine is born from the essence of the sun and the moon, and only the gods in the sky can taste it." We have this treasure in the Spring Pavilion, do not want to enjoy it exclusively, in order to thank everyone for their support to the Spring Pavilion, we decided to take it out and give it to everyone for free. ”

"Oooh oh..." Hearing this, everyone in the audience shouted for joy.

Pan Jinlian smiled and beckoned behind her, and ten bewitching beauties walked over and stood in a row facing the audience, each holding a wine bottle in their hands. Pan Jinlian poured the wine in the bottle into the wine bottle. Ten beauties took the wine, squatted down slightly, and handed it to the people in the audience.

This trick is absolutely powerful. Let's not talk about the taste of the wine, just the wine handed over by the ten beauties, even if it is water, it is refreshing to drink. At this moment, I don't know how many people squeezed hard in front of the stage, and a lot of shoes, hats, and clothes were squeezed out.

In the end, only ten people grabbed the wine bottle and poured it into their mouths at once.

But they drank too quickly, and the fairy wine was so strong that they almost choked to death.

However, when the strength of the wine has passed, they feel that the aftertaste is sweet in their mouths, the aroma lingers for a long time, and in a trance, there is also the feeling of stepping on the clouds.

"Good, good wine! What wine! ”

Everyone handed the wine bottle back to the beauty on the stage, and they all said: "One more bottle, one more bottle quickly!" ”
