Chapter 9: The Drunken Eight Immortals

A few people pushed their glasses to change the lamp, and after a few pots of wine, Han Xiaofeng was also a little dizzy. Long Sen even directly found a sister with a round ass to roll the sheets, which made Li Kui and Chen feel unbearably itchy. It would be a lie to say that Han Xiaofeng didn't have any ideas, but subconsciously, Han Xiaofeng was still unwilling to waste his essence on this Qinglou woman.

Since Han Xiaofeng came to work at the dock, Li Rong and Lao Li Tou no longer care about Li Kui's affairs, in a word, it's right to follow me.

In the end, Han Xiaofeng ignored Li Kui and Chen Fang, and went back to the warehouse alone. Thinking about all the things that happened today, it was really a long night and I didn't want to sleep. There are so many things to do to live well and live long.

Early the next morning, Han Xiaofeng went to the market to buy a large wine jug and porcelain. No way, during the Tang Dynasty, iron was mostly used to cast weapons, swords and other utensils, and it was not widely used in life, but this porcelain was still used for distillation experiments.

The drainage tube is easier to find, a thin bamboo tube is enough. What you need for an experiment is simple, but it's not so simple if you want to produce it on a large scale.

The bamboo is roasted over low heat, then bent to a proper arc, and when the temperature drops down and is fixed, it will take shape in a while.

Place the flask containing the sake on the fire rack and insert a drain made of bamboo into the spout. The most important thing is the fire, this fire can't be too big, if it's too big, the flask will blow up directly.

Han Xiaofeng controlled the heat, and after a while, there was a gurgling sound in the wine jug. When the wine is opened, the mist inside comes out, and it is really full of wine.

A drop of wine from the drainage tube fell into the bowl, and Han Xiaofeng couldn't wait to take a sip. Wow, that's it, that's what it tastes like. The entrance is soft, and the throat is a line (sorry, steal the advertising words). In this Tang Dynasty, the difficulty of wanting to drink blended liquor is the same as the difficulty of drinking pure grain wine in modern times.

The wine is there, and now the difference is a loud name, Han Xiaofeng thought, there was a poem about Li Baidou's wine in ancient times, and my wine is called the Drunken Eight Immortals.

Han Xiaofeng distilled a few pots of wine one after another, ready to use them for propaganda purposes. If the acceptance is high and there is a market, then the opportunity to make a fortune will come, and the heart beats faster at the thought of the silver in vain.

Han Xiaofeng hid the experimental equipment, in case he met a smart person who saw through the principle, then the wine would be worthless.

The first test subject, Han Xiaofeng, chose Long Sen, after all, he was his drinking friend, and he could also represent the taste of the Tang Dynasty public.

Long Sen came back after almost noon, and looking at his frivolous and top-heavy appearance, he knew that he was hollowed out by the round ass sister last night.

Han Xiaofeng quipped, "What, did Brother Long fight with a master last night for three hundred rounds or what?" The footsteps are a little floaty. ”

Long Sen said embarrassedly, "You don't know. That lady is so shameless, she must have no guests at ordinary times. All the commotion was vented to Lao Tzu, which made my back hurt. Wait for the next time to see if Lao Tzu doesn't kill her. ”

Han Xiaofeng didn't make fun of him either, and said, "It's okay, let's go, brother, please drink, be active, and get some essence and blood." ”

Long Sen was also happy, this kid usually can't see it, it turns out that he is also a sullen slut.

The meals are all made separately in the kitchen, after all, Long Sen and Han Xiaofeng are also leaders, and this treatment is still there.

Eating, Han Xiaofeng said, "Brother Long, how many years have you been drinking?" ”

Long Sen wondered, "Why are you asking this?" Do you think I'm drinking too much? ”

"What is this, I just wanted to ask if you have the ability to judge whether it is good or not based on the aroma of wine?"

Long Sen put down his chopsticks and said, "Brother, then you are asking the right person." It's not that I'm bragging to you, I stole wine when I was ten years old, and I'm twenty years younger now, so I can tell if the wine is good or not. ”

Han Xiaofeng was happy when he heard it, he stole wine and drank at the age of ten, why didn't he get drunk and went into the pit, he really wasn't a worry-free master.

Han Xiaofeng smiled and said, "That's okay, I'll test you today." ”

Han Xiaofeng took out a piece of cloth and blindfolded Long Sen's eyes. Then he took out a bottle of aged Huadiao wine that sold for 2 taels of silver and a small pot on the market from the cabinet, and a pot of daughter red for 30 yuan a bottle.

There are also two bottles of distilled liquor, one bottle is distilled with two taels of silver and a pot of liquor, and the other pot is distilled with a pot of liquor of 30 yuan, a total of four pots of liquor.

Han Xiaofeng let Long Sen smell the four bottles of wine one by one, and asked, "How is it, do you have a dog nose to make your debut?" ”

Long Sen's nose sniffed in the air again, and said excitedly, "My Han Gongzile, where did you get good wine, I know that there is a pot of Huadiao, and that wine is good." There is also a pot of daughter red, and this is the worst pot of wine in it. There are also two pots of the best, which are so fragrant. ”

Han Xiaofeng also felt that it was magical, and it was really not in vain to be able to drink to this realm. Two words, awesome.

Han Xiaofeng said, "Okay, count you through." Take away the strips of cloth, this wine will give you a taste. ”

"What a taste, don't call me if there are good things, do you have me as the shopkeeper in your heart" It turned out that Liu Sheng didn't know where to come out of nowhere, and said to the two people in the room.

Han Xiaofeng and Long Sen stood up to greet Liu Sheng and said with a smile: "Boss Liu is elusive every day, even if it's small, I want to try it from you, I don't know where you are, right?" ”

Liu Sheng didn't care about these either, and said, "Let's sit down and talk, it just so happens that I haven't eaten either." What did you just say about tasting the fresh, and there are no delicacies on this table that I haven't tasted. ”

Han Xiaofeng said, "Boss Liu, wait a moment. ”

Han Xiaofeng took four wine glasses, poured a glass of wine from each pot, and said, "Does Boss Liu think there is any difference?" ”

Liu Sheng is also a holy hand in wine, and he is famous when he smells it. picked up a cup of drunken eight immortals and took a sip, only to see Liu Sheng begin to close his eyes and slowly swallow the wine.

Liu Changchang let out a long breath and said, "The entrance is shengjin, full of mellow fragrance, and the aftertaste is endless."

In the end, he even said, "Good wine, good wine." Today is really a new taste, Han Xiaofeng honestly explained, where did you buy this wine, such a good wine is not shared with everyone, it is really picky. ”

Long Sen also echoed, "Yes, picking the door, it is picking the door"

Then he took the flask and poured wine into his glass, and a dragon sucked the water and dried it. But he completely underestimated the power of this high level of liquor, choked on it, and coughed violently.

Han Xiaofeng and Liu Sheng laughed. Liu Sheng scolded with a smile: "It's really a cow chewing peonies, and it's a violent thing." ”

Long Sen scolded, "Damn, it's spicy, but it's hard enough, I like it." ”

Han Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Boss Liu, this wine is not sold outside, I just got it out, and I named it Drunken Eight Immortals, why don't I let you try it, why did I slam the door." ”

Liu Sheng patted his thigh and said, "Drunken Eight Immortals, good name." Okay, I don't care what you make up of drunken eight immortals and drunken nine immortals, and my wine will come out of you in the future. ”

Han Xiaofeng looked depressed, is this a forced purchase or a robbery.

Liu Sheng continued: "Also, I already know what happened last night. Xiaofeng and Ah Long, you two are doing well, I will be relieved to have you two in the future. This time it was a double win, that is, he took the ship of the government and deterred the Red Tiger Gang. These are two hundred taels of silver, and a reward of two for you. ”

Han Xiaofeng and Long Sen were also not polite: "Thank you, Boss Liu." ”

Liu Sheng said, "Okay, don't be polite to the two of you." I still have something to do, so I'll go first. ”

Liu Sheng was just about to leave, but he turned around and took the pot of distilled liquor away.

Han Xiaofeng can only sigh that people are invincible. Deler, this first kind of charlatan hero is the end of the experiment. Now it's time to go to the literati and do experiments.

Han Xiaofeng carefully packaged the two small jars of drunken eight immortals, which could not only give gifts to thank Lord Chen, but also try whether the literati liked this high level of wine. Although in modern society, Chinese families basically like to drink baijiu. But in the Tang Dynasty, there was no high-alcohol wine, it was all low-alcohol wine, and it took a process to adapt, just like beer had just entered China.

Han Xiaofeng searched all the way and finally found the mansion of the county magistrate Chen De, this mansion is so old, and there are only two mossy lions at the door.

Han Xiaofeng stepped forward to report to the door, and soon after the housekeeper went in to report, Chen Fang came out to greet him.

Chen Fang said with a look of surprise: "Brother Han is really a rare guest, please come in, please come in." ”

Chen De's mansion belongs to a typical ancient four-entry courtyard pattern, and there is a shadow wall at the entrance, which is dominated by green lotus lotuses. After that, it is the courtyard, which is symmetrically separated by the central axis, and there are flower beds on both sides, and there is also a willow tree on both sides, and the breeze supports the willow and has a special taste.

Chen Degang came out of the study, and when he saw Han Xiaofeng arriving at the mansion at some point, he went up to greet him and said, "Welcome Han Gongzi to the mansion as a guest, go, go to the main room to drink tea, and Chen let you go and arrange dinner." (Note: In the Tang Dynasty, the living room of the courtyard was called the lobby or the main house, not the living room.) If you are wrong, please understand. )

Han Xiaofeng said with a smile: "Lord Chen is really a breeze with two sleeves, I'm afraid this courtyard has been around for some years." ”

Chen De smiled bitterly, "I want to repair this courtyard, but I have to get the silver and the silver, and I will lose it all for that kid." ”

Han Xiaofeng retorted, "Chen Gongzi is bold by nature, and he has made friends with heroes in the world, this is not a loser, I also want to lose, but I have to have a family background to lose." ”

Chen De became angry at the mention of Chen Fang, and said, "Don't talk about that rabbit cub, what is the matter with Han Gongzi's visit today." ”

Han Xiaofeng said, "I came here today to thank Master Chen for his trust and support to me, if it weren't for your help, I might have been in a different place with the workers in the warehouse." ”

Han Xiaofeng stood up and faced Chen De and bowed respectfully. Said to Chen De: "Please accept my bow." ”

Chen De didn't expect Han Xiaofeng to be so solemn, so he picked up Han Xiaofeng and said, "As an official of the imperial court and the parents of the people, it is my duty to protect you, and I dare not accept this great gift." ”

Chen De sighed in his heart, this Han Xiaofeng is outstanding, clever, and affectionate. is really a manufacturable material, and if you have the opportunity, you must recommend it to the imperial court.

The two chatted about last night, and after Zhao Xianlong transported the gunpowder back to the station, he found that it was all mud and sand, and he was so angry that he was half dead. Now I am looking for that batch of gunpowder all over the mountains, and the real gunpowder is probably about to arrive in Chang'an.

At night, the dinner began, and the meal was not sumptuous, with four dishes and one soup, which was more in line with Chen Deqingguan's style.

Han Xiaofeng took out his Drunken Eight Immortals and said, "Lord Chen, this is a new wine I found, called Drunken Eight Immortals, you can see how it is." ”

Chen De wiped the cork, sniffed it, and said, "The wine is fragrant, not bad, not bad." ”

After speaking, he couldn't wait to pour a glass, and his expression after drinking was exactly the same as Liu Sheng's, with a satisfied face, no different from an orgasm.

This ancient wine jar is relatively large, a small jar has to be a pound and a half, and the three of them slowly wiped out the two jars of wine, of course, Chen De and his son, who had just drunk the spirits, had already fallen down.

Han Xiaofeng had no choice but to say hello to the housekeeper and leave. As soon as the cool breeze blew on the road, Han Xiaofeng couldn't stand it anymore, he was dizzy, so he had to hire a carriage, and on the way back, Han Xiaofeng had been thinking about how to brew drunken eight immortals on a large scale, and fell asleep after thinking about it.
