Chapter 125: Improving New Wines
Yin Li, who was hanging out, stopped at a stall, and the four Guangzong Yaozu who were with him to protect Yin Li's safety stopped, and looked at Yin Li, who was squatting down and picking up a bamboo tube to look left and right.
After walking around for most of the circle, I didn't find any novelty, but the bamboo tube of the stall of the elderly man in his fifties in front of him aroused his interest, and the bamboo tube was as big as a palm.
This is the first time Yin Li has seen such a big bamboo, and I don't know what kind of bamboo it is? Looking at this bamboo tube, Yin Li suddenly thought of something, and raised his head to look at the fifty-year-old stall owner with a nervous face.
Yin Li played with the bamboo tube in his hand with interest and said, "Old man, what kind of bamboo is this?" ”
The old man hesitated for a while and said: "Childe, this is Lei Zhu, which is a variety brought back by Wu'er in Suzhou, and it is very suitable for making a pen holder, which is not expensive, 10 Wen." ”
Yin Li shook his head and said, "I don't need it, but I want to buy the bamboo you planted, old man, you make a price." ”
The old man was a little surprised when he heard this, and said, "Huh? This ......"
It was too sudden, I originally thought that Yin Li didn't want it, but I didn't expect Yin Li to actually buy the bamboo he was planting, and it was the first time that the old man heard of such a strange request, and he couldn't help but be stunned.
The four of them also had stunned expressions, the four of them really couldn't figure it out, what did they do when they bought other people's bamboo? It seems that there is nothing surprising about these bamboos in front of you?
The old man came back to his senses and smiled bitterly and said, "Childe, don't you want to make fun of the old man......"
Yin Li put down the bamboo tube in his hand, interrupted the old man's words and said, "Do you think I look like a joker? Make a price, I want your bamboo. ”
The old man didn't expect Yin Li to be so resolute, the first time he encountered such a thing, he looked at Yin Li for a while and gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, since the son wants it, how about selling it to you for 5 taels?" ”
Seeing that the old man agreed, Yin Li said cheerfully: "Deal, take me to dig." ”
Yin Li didn't talk nonsense, he directly took out 5 taels of silver, and threw it to the old man without frowning, the stunned old man caught the silver thrown by Yin Li, put it on his teeth and bit it, good guy, really!
Looking at the old man's unhygienic action of biting silver, Yin Li couldn't help crying and laughing and couldn't help but chill, if everyone was like the old man, there was this special way to check money, how dirty was this silver?
After inspecting the silver, the old man directly closed the stall and pushed the small cart, and took Yin Li and the four of Guangzong Yaozu home, and the four of Guangzong Yaozu couldn't figure out what Yin Li spent so much silver to do when he bought useless bamboo?
The old man's home was not very far from the West Market, and he was two miles away from his door, and the dilapidated courtyard of the hut attracted serious attention, and fifteen bamboos more than two meters high bloomed with lush bamboo leaves.
This is the thunder bamboo that the old man said, Yin Li walked into the yard with some surprise, ignoring the barking of the house dogs in the yard, and looked at the thunder bamboos that branched out and grown, each of which was as thick as three fingers.
The old man's family heard the barking of the family dog and came out, and found that the yard was full of faces and five people of Guangzong Yaozu, and asked the old man to learn that it was the person who bought the bamboo, and it was bought at a high price of 5 taels of silver, and they all felt incredible, until the old man took out 5 taels of silver to believe it.
The work of digging bamboo is not difficult for the old man's family, and the bamboo has basically been dug out before the curfew.
The matter of transporting bamboo is much simpler, Yin Li directly paid for an ox cart to pull it back, and 8 ox carts lined up in a long queue for transportation, which stunned the people who hurried home before the curfew.
Yuan Rin walked out of the mansion when he heard the news, looked at the bamboo pulled by 8 ox carts, and said dumbfounded: "Mr. Yin, what is this?" ”
Yin Li was afraid that the coachmen of the ox cart would not be able to go back, so he didn't talk nonsense and said to Yuan Rin: "Arrange for someone to dig a pit in the middle courtyard and transplant these bamboos." ”
Yuan Rin hugged his fists and responded to the arrangement of going back to the house, as for why Yin Li bought bamboo and came back, this is not a matter of Yuan Rin's concern, just follow Yin Li's instructions to do his own thing.
Yin Li did not embarrass these drivers who transported the bamboo, and after unloading the bamboo at the gate of the house, he directly gave them wages and sent them back.
Mrs. Yin, who was walking in the front yard, saw Yin Li and Guangzong Yaozu coming back, and she was still carrying the bamboo and said with some surprise: "Lizi, what are you doing here?" ”
Yin Li, who has no time for the time being, replied perfunctorily: "Of course it's planting bamboo, I'll be busy first, and I'll talk to you later." ”
Looking at the back of Yin Li leaving in a hurry, Mrs. Yin shook her head and sighed softly: "This is really ......."
Planting bamboo is very simple, Yin Fan and Yin Rong with the help of the four of Guangzong Yaozu, they planted all fifteen bamboos before dark, and the busy Guangzong Yaozu went back to the south courtyard to rest, and Yin Li directly recruited Yin Fan.
Yin Fan wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked cautiously, "Mr. Yin, what are your orders?" ”
Yin Li put it on Yin Fan's shoulder, and under Yin Fan's flattered expression, he explained very seriously: "It's been hard these days, and I will steam more and make wine." ”
Yin Fan didn't know Yin Li's intentions, didn't ask much, nodded sharply to show that he understood, and left with his fists under Yin Li's wave, Yin Li looked at the transplanted bamboo and smiled, buying these bamboos Yin Li was an ingenious temporary idea.
That's right, Yin Li is to make improved bamboo wine, use high-quality wild bamboo, use special technology to pour the original puree wine into the live bamboo, let it grow naturally, naturally seal, and absorb the essence of bamboo, it will become a fine wine in the world!
The production of bamboo wine also has very strict requirements, the selection of new high-quality bamboo, poured into the base wine of bamboo to fully absorb natural bamboo juice, bamboo leaf polysaccharides, bamboo drain, flavonoids and other active ingredients, wine and bamboo blending, into secondary fermentation, quality and taste have been greatly improved.
Of course, there is also a special way to make bamboo wine, considering the height of bamboo, as well as its bearing capacity, generally a bamboo injection of three or four sections, and to inject every section, not every section of wine.
There are not too many plants in the same bamboo forest, otherwise it will affect the normal development of bamboo, generally in the spring of the second year (that is, after almost 8~10 months), after the bamboo grows up, these injected into the steamed liquor can be taken out and drunk.
After the second fermentation, the original degree of steamed sake is about 50 degrees, but after the bamboo growth and fermentation, it will become lighter and more flavorful, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the best wine in the world is not exaggerated.
Although bamboo wine existed in ancient times, those are cut bamboo, and the turbid wine with many impurities is used to hold it, and there is no way to compare it with the original ecological bamboo wine that has been improved by itself.
Yin Li is a little looking forward to it, the improved bamboo tube wine, I believe that as soon as it comes out, it will become one of the national wines of the Tang Dynasty, of course, these wines are not for ordinary people to drink, but to be sold to those princes and nobles to enjoy.
