Chapter 50: The Winery
Before coming to Hu Mansion, Luo Cheng was naturally prepared.
He took out a piece of paper from his bosom and handed it to Father Hu. Some things are not clear, and they still need to be practiced.
On the piece of paper given to Hu's father, a number of procedures were noted in detail, what to do at this time, and what to do at that time...... All in all, Luo Cheng has written as detailed as possible.
But in the eyes of Father Hu, he looked confused...... He couldn't read it. Although he doesn't know much about winemaking, he doesn't know anything about it, but when he looks at the things on Luo Cheng's paper, he has never heard of it and seen it.
He finally understood what Luo Cheng meant. These things are not easy to understand if they are not actually operated in the workshop.
However, Father Hu was also a little puzzled, Luo Chengnai was the noble prince of Beiping, how could he know this method of winemaking?
But Father Hu is a person who knows how to measure, this is Luo Cheng's little secret, it has nothing to do with him, so he naturally won't ask more.
Knowing what Luo Cheng meant, Father Hu hurriedly replied: "The workshop is in the city, since the son is going, the old man will let people prepare." ”
Luo Cheng waved his hand and said, "Don't bother, let's go and see first!" I have important business in a moment. ”
Although Zhang Jian did not restrict Luo Cheng's movements, Luo Cheng couldn't wave outside for too long, he had to rush back before nightfall, so it was necessary for him to hurry.
Since Luo CD said so, Father Hu has nothing to say. It was taking Luo Cheng and Huba and others out of Hufu and taking a carriage to a market.
"The workshop is among them, but my Hu family does not specialize in the wine industry, so the workshop is not too big, and I ask the prince to forgive me." Father Hu said politely, while promised: "If this cooperation can be achieved, the expansion of my Hu family's wine industry is imperative, and the son of the world does not have to worry." ”
Luo Cheng didn't seem to care too much, he naturally had some understanding of the situation of the Hu family. On the one hand, it is because of Hu Ba's acquaintance, and on the other hand, the Hu family's business in the wine industry is really insufficient.
If he cooperates with the developed family of the wine industry, Luo Cheng will be able to get much less benefits. And when working with people, Luo Cheng prefers to find acquaintances, strangers and acquaintances, obviously acquaintances will have a lot less trouble.
When he arrived at the workshop, Luo Cheng looked at it, this was a medium-sized winery. It's not too small, but it's not big at all. If it was just such a winery, it would naturally be far from meeting Luo Cheng's requirements, but with Hu's father promising to be here, Luo Cheng had nothing to say.
At the moment, the workers in the brewery are busy working. In ancient times, liquor making was quite troublesome, and there were many processes, but the alcohol content was not high. Compared to the bold nature of the Northlanders, spirits are the perfect match.
"Sir, why are you here?" The foreman of the overseer saw Hu's father and a few people, and hurriedly came out to greet him.
Father Hu introduced Luo Cheng, and the foreman honestly shouted: "Luo Gongzi is good, young master is good!" Today's workshop is just brewing a batch of good wine, and the master can come and take a look. ”
"No need." Father Hu was not interested in this, shook his head slightly and said, "The old man is here today because he has some things to explain. ”
The foreman was stunned, usually Father Hu didn't care much about the winery, but today's sudden appearance like this really surprised him.
But Father Hu has spoken, so he naturally has no opinion, and listens attentively.
Father Hu said: "Take me in and see the wine!" ”
The crowd walked into the winery.
Luo Cheng looked around and asked, "Who is the master of brewing wine here?" ”
The foreman pointed out a few people, Luo Cheng nodded and said, "You go to the city to find a few carpenters and blacksmiths, you may be able to use them later!" ”
Luo Cheng's request made the foreman very puzzled, this is a winery, what use can carpenters and blacksmiths come in? But after all, Luo Cheng was a distinguished guest, and there was a signal from Hu's father behind him, and the foreman hurriedly went to do it.
Luo Cheng looked at Father Hu, and Father Hu said solemnly: "The people in this wine shop are all trustworthy, and the son of the world can rest assured." ”
Luo Cheng nodded slightly, took out the drawing in his arms, made several people look at it, and asked, "Can you see it?" ”
Several people answered that they understood. Luo Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he didn't understand it at all. Since you can understand something, there is no problem.
After a while, the foreman returned with a few men, all of whom were nearby carpenters and blacksmiths. Luo Cheng nodded, took out the drawings again and let a few people read them, and said, "Can you do it?" ”
Fortunately, several carpenters and blacksmiths were not in vain, and gave Luo Cheng a positive answer!
Luo Chengnai adopted a new process to make wine, and the equipment used was naturally not the same as before. At the same time, it is impossible to achieve the same level of precision as today.
Therefore, the equipment on the drawings was independently designed by Luo Cheng according to memory and experience. It can be said that it is a simplified version of the instrument of later generations, and it still has a similar effect.
Luo Cheng didn't think much about it, Luo Cheng handed over the drawing with the equipment to a few people, and said directly: "How long will it take you to do all this?" ”
Several people looked at each other, and after a little muttering, they replied in unison: "Three days." ”
"Three days? It's pretty much the same. Luo Cheng didn't have much urgency, so he answered.
Several people left with the equipment drawings. There are many of these equipment, and it is normal to spend a few days!
Now there is no equipment, it is impossible to actually operate, and Luo Cheng can't explain it clearly, so it is impossible for him to teach the ancients the principles of natural science and technology and winemaking!
Luo Cheng didn't stay for a long time, but said goodbye to Father Hu, saying that he had other things to do, and he would come back to visit in the future!
Father Hu knew that it was indeed a bit troublesome for Luo Cheng to make it clear now, so he agreed.
Originally, Father Hu also wanted to leave Luo Cheng behind, sign a contract before leaving. But Luo Cheng said that he would wait until he had done a good job.
Luo Cheng left, Father Hu looked at Luo Cheng's back and sighed for a while, then looked at Huba again, sighed, and said with hatred: "Look at others, look at you, you have lost all your face for your father." ”
Huba looked confused, how did this have anything to do with him? He didn't say a word, and he became an object of education.
Subsequently, Huba also understood. This is the difference between someone else's child and your own child.
Luo Cheng's momentum and demeanor crushed him for a few streets. Because of this, he was scolded by Father Hu, who hated iron but not steel.
In the past three days, the craftsman has delivered the completed equipment and facilities, and Luo Cheng has also entered Beiping City again from the barracks according to the agreement.
Luo Cheng looked at the finished instrument and felt much more relaxed. With the help of equipment, he will be much simpler in the future, at least talking about things will not be troublesome.
So, Luo Cheng began to command several workers and began to assemble this newly renovated set of equipment!
