When he returned home, he took out all the gold, silver, and silk silk that had been rewarded, counted them carefully, and then converted them into copper coins, which amounted to exactly 53,000 yuan.

Looking at the money, Zhang Yunwen knew that it was still far away.

In addition to the 50,000 yuan to buy a house, there is also the cost of decoration, the cost of running a tavern, and finally the cost of maintaining the current house. Where is the 53,000 thousand?

Do you want to find someone to borrow money? Looking at the courtiers and generals that Zhang Yunwen is familiar with, they are now also living on rewards and lulu, even if they have spare money, they are embarrassed to borrow from them! After all, a guerrilla general who has only been in Chang'an for a long time can't afford to buy a house and land so quickly.

Suddenly, Zhang Yunwen had an idea, whether he would go to the eldest grandson and ask her to put some money into it, and say that it was the property of the headquarters of the Investigation Institute.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yunwen came to the Qin Palace, saw the eldest grandson, and when he told him about it, the eldest grandson's eyes suddenly smiled into a crescent moon: "Hehe, Yunwen will think!" But can you make any money in that tavern? How about the drunken cloud building? ”

Zhang Yunwen immediately patted his chest: "Rest assured, this tavern opened by Weichen will definitely make money!" That drunken cloud building, it can be closed down in less than three months! ”

The eldest grandson said: "Yunwen, but that drunken cloud building is also the property of the Qin Palace!" ”

Zhang Yunwen froze: "Uh, forget it, don't let it go out of business!" ”

The eldest grandson covered his mouth and smiled: "Yunwen is really interesting! You said that if you don't let it go out of business, you won't let it go out of business, does Yunwen really have such a big ability? ”

Zhang Yunwen saw that Changsun was suspicious, and immediately said: "Please give me a month, and Weichen will let Niangniang know what real wine is!" ”

Back at home, Zhang Yunwen thought about making distilled spirits.

Nowadays, most of the fine wines of the Tang Dynasty are koji wines, which are turbid, sweet in taste, and have a very low degree, so much so that they look like mash. Distilled spirits, on the other hand, are as clear as water, with a mellow aroma and a high degree of alcohol, and when drunk in the mouth, it is like a fire. In this Guanzhong area, this distilled liquor should be easy to sell!

In Zhang Yunwen's previous life, the unit had its own winery. At that time, the army was allowed to set up an industry, and he was stationed in Guangxi for a few months, which was to make countless wines, and Zhang Yunwen was also fortunate to participate in the brewing process and learn a set of wine-making methods.

First, it took nearly ten days to build a set of wine utensils at the blacksmith Zhou, and then steamed the grain, mixed the koji, sealed it, and waited for fermentation. Check the temperature of the lees daily and keep an eye on the lees at all times. Finally, after a few days, the sake lees tasted slightly sweet, so the sake lees were steamed again. An iron pipe is connected to the top of the lid, and the steamed steam flows down the iron pipe to the cooling tank, where it cools and then turns into fine wine and flows out.

More than 100 catties of grain eventually turned into more than 80 catties of wine. And most of the more than 80 catties of wine went into the stomachs of the Liu brothers and Yang Chang, and Zhang Yunwen only took an urn of ten catties of wine to see the eldest grandson.

The eldest grandson watched Zhang Yunwen untie the mud on the wine urn, and asked the fragrance of the wine wafting out: "Hey, this taste, it's so fragrant!" ”

Then, Zhang Yunwen gently poured a bowl of wine out. Looking at the wine as transparent as water, the eldest grandson couldn't help but ask in surprise: "This, this is wine?" Seeing Zhang Yunwen nodded, Changsun carefully picked up the wine bowl and took a sip gently, but he felt that his mouth was full of hot feelings. Immediately, he said: "Yunwen, your wine is not suitable for women!" ”

Zhang Yunwen arched his hand and said: "Niangniang is right, this wine has a strong taste, and it is indeed not suitable for women to drink!" But the tavern is open, and most of the people who come to drink are men, so it can suit their taste! ”

The eldest grandson nodded: "Okay, this palace will make the decision on behalf of the prince and contribute 50,000 yuan." All operations are carried out by Yunwen, and by the end of the year, half of the profits will be shared! ”

Zhang Yunwen calculated, in addition to buying the building, the 100,000 yuan is more than enough for decoration and other expenses. In addition, the restaurant is big enough to produce wine directly in the back and supply the front sales.

At that moment, Zhang Yunwen found Wang Qu and bought an entire building that was originally a number of shops at a price of 50,000 yuan, and then invited a carpenter to decorate it according to his own ideas.

First of all, on the bottom floor, Zhang Yunwen said that the walls that were originally divided into several shops were all knocked down and connected into a very wide hall. Just like the Zuiyun Building, this hall is for the three sects and the nine streams to come to drink and buy wine. The second floor is made by Zhang Yunwen's vassal elegance. From the door of the second floor all the way in, I saw a luxuriously decorated box, and there was a lantern riddle or half a poem hanging at the door. Of course, the wine served in the box is much better than the wine in the lobby. On the top third floor, Zhang Yunwen waved his pen and directly allocated it to the Liu brothers and Yang Chang to live.

Since the three of them saw Zhang Yunwen raising money to make wine, they knew that this tavern was open, so they wanted to live in the restaurant with a dead face, saying that it was better to smell some wine every day than to stay at home. So Zhang Yunwen had no choice but to let them live in a restaurant.

However, in the face of the empty house, Zhang Yunwen couldn't help but feel a little depressed, this house is big enough, but he lives alone, he is really lonely!

From preparation to final completion, it took three months. Of course, in the past three months, Zhang Yunwen has built a small winery behind the restaurant, which can produce nearly 200 catties of wine per day. These wines are definitely not enough to sell, so Zhang Yunwen is planning to build a large wine shop outside Chang'an City, and one uses the network of the investigation institute to look for the source of wine. Xinghua Village in Shanxi Province is one of his sights.

Although he is busy with the construction of his own restaurant, he will still take the time to go to the drunken cloud building and the manor outside the city, which is his duty after all. After carrying distilled liquor once, Xu Chensong said to Zhang Yunwen with a bitter face: "Dean, can you do other business?" If you open a restaurant, within March, our Zuiyun Building will be closed! ”

And after those reconnaissance battalion soldiers tasted this kind of wine once, they all gathered around Zhang Yunwen, and they wanted him to bring more wine! Zhang Yunwen said: "Why don't you wait until the day I open, and a few of you in Chang'an will come over to celebrate and bring some wine back to your brothers?" ”

As a result, Chang'an rangers such as Liu Cheng and Wu Peng were suddenly overjoyed, and they couldn't wait to pick up Zhang Yunwen and kiss them, while those soldiers who were not local to Chang'an looked at Zhang Yunwen with a resentful look. It was creepy to see Zhang Yunwen.

The opening date of Cheung Wan Man Restaurant is set for June 22.

On this day, it is recorded in the almanac: "It is advisable to open a business for logging and bathing, and avoid marriage and travel." ”
