Chapter 8: Good Wine
Yu Wenkai slapped open the mud seal on it, and suddenly there was an attractive aroma of wine in the air, Yu Wenkai and Yu Wensui are both good drinkers, each took a bowl, poured the wine and tasted it, the wine still has temperature, mellow and thick, two words, enjoyable; The two were full of praise, and Yang Chong said a little proudly: "After that jar is placed for seven days, it tastes better." ”
Yu Wenkai tasted the wine and said: "This is not bad, it is no worse than the imperial wine that the Wei family paid tribute to the palace, but it costs too much food, and there is less than half a jar of wine left in one jar." Yang Chong, you say the price, I bought this formula. ”
Yang Chong felt proud for a while, pondered it, and said according to the train of thought he had thought: "This is just a trick, it's nothing. If the gentleman agrees, this recipe is considered to be an apprenticeship. ”
I don't know if it's the reason why I don't believe Yang Chong, or if the people of the Sui Dynasty are real, in the process of brewing wine, neither Yuwensui nor Old Master Liu came to take a look, but Yang Chong gave whatever he wanted.
Yuwen opened his mouth widely, this recipe can be exchanged for a lot of money. Yu Wenkai was also a little surprised, thought for a while and said: "Actually, the first night you came, tell me how you met Wei Jie and them in Shanshan, and then returned to Chang'an, I have a doubt, why don't you open your own winery?" ”
Yang Chong said confidently: "The war in the imperial court is imminent, and the liquor tax or grain control will definitely be reinstated, and only high-ranking officials of the scholar clan can do this business in the future, and ordinary people can't do it at all." Don't worry, sir, I worship Mr. as a teacher, I just want to follow Mr. for a long time, and learn whatever Mr. is willing to teach. ”
Yu Wenkai drank wine and asked Yang Chong: "What books have you studied?" ”
Yang Chong's scalp was numb, this was his own dead end, not to mention the Four Books and Five Classics, even the Three Character Classics could not be memorized, so he had to reply: "Mr. Hui, what the villain has learned is miscellaneous, and it is not worth talking about." ”
Yu Wenkai looked at Yang Chong and said, "It's okay, give an example." ”
Yang Chong said in a low voice: "Gewu." ”
There are few scholars in the Great Sui Dynasty, so Yu Wenkai pondered for a while and said, "As for me, I'm really a little undecided." In this way, tomorrow you and I will go to a place, and when we come back, I will tell you that you have decided, Yuwensui, to carry the two jars of wine to me. ”
Yu Wenkai immediately understood what Yu Wenkai meant, and said aggrievedly: "Uncle, you have no confidence in me like this. ”
Yang Chong didn't expect to go to Chang'an City the next day, and the scene he saw on the carriage seemed to be more lively, the buildings were magnificent and tall, the streets were very lively, and the BMW incense car was dazzling. The carriage walked back and forth along Suzaku Street, and finally went around into the metropolitan city in the east, which occupies two square sizes, restaurants and tea shops are dotted around, and the hawkers' cries are endless, Yang Chong followed Yuwenkai into a Yujia restaurant.
Yu Wenkai is obviously a regular customer of the restaurant, and the guy didn't ask, so he led the two to a pavilion on the second floor, and after a while, he served the dishes, reporting the names of the dishes: Changsheng porridge, oven scones, sheepskin filigree, five-meat plate; Yang Chong saw that the longevity porridge was red date porridge, the oven scones were baked cakes with meat filling, and the sheepskin filaments were chicken thighs with pork skins and fungus, only beef and mutton were recognized in the five-meat plate, and Yu Wenkai knew that the other three were donkey meat, venison, and rabbit meat.
Yu Wenkai sat down, sipped tea and asked, "What are you worried about, if you are a Confucian student, I don't think about it at all." Tell me, how is this Suzaku Street designed? Zhuque Street and Tianjie are the dividing line of Daxing City, the 53 squares east of the street are Wannian County, and the 55 squares west of the street are Chang'an County. ”
How is the design, can I say that you designed it badly? Yang Chongzheng muttered in his heart, and suddenly realized that Yu Wenkai was looking to see if he had vision and understanding, and immediately replied: "Vermilion Bird Street is one hundred and fifty meters wide, and the drainage ditches on the left and right are used for diversion. ”
Yu Wenkai nodded and said: "Yes, my design back then contained this meaning, it is beneficial to the people in peacetime, and it is beneficial to the army in wartime, not only Suzaku Street, but also near this metropolis, there are several roads with a width of one hundred and twenty meters. Accidents can happen in any city, and the most important thing for people who design cities is to take into account this kind of once-in-a-century thing, and you can see this, which is still very perceptive. ”
Yang Chong asked, "This is where Mr. wants to show me?" ”
Yu Wenkai smiled: "No, how can it be so cheap for you, I am waiting for my clan brother Yu Wenhua, a few days ago he sent someone to inform me, see you here today." Yu Wenhua and Yang Chong were startled, the villain in the Sui and Tang novels, and finally killed Yang Guang.
The door curtain was raised, and two people came in, the one in front was about thirty years old, tall and thin, although he was smiling, his eyes were deep and unpredictable, and there was a ruthless and cold momentum; The person in the back is long and broad-waisted, with a beard and thick eyebrows. Yu Wenkai introduced with a smile: "Yang Chong, these are the two clan brothers, Yu Wenhua and Yu Wen have nothing to match. ”
Yang Chong stood up, bowed and saluted, "I've seen two generals. ”
Yu Wenhua smiled coldly and said, "I'm not a general, just call me an adult." ”
Yu Wenkai frowned and said, "What is the situation of Chu Guogong now?" ”
Yu Wenhua and: "Yang Su refuses to take medicine now, it is not as good as day by day, and the imperial doctors dare not force it, so they can only do it in a hurry; His son Yang Xuangan had a gloomy face all day long, and that Li Mi spoke in a weird way. ”
Yu Wenkai's expression became serious when he heard this, but he didn't say a word; Hearing this, Yang Chong understood that the Duke of Chu Guogong that Yuwen had nothing to say was Yang Su, and it was said in the wild history that Yang Su was killed by Emperor Yang Guang of Sui, and it was also the reason for Yang Xuangan's rebellion later, and I don't know if it was true or not. Thinking of this, Yang Chong's heart jumped, and now it is not long before Yang Xuangan rebels; Yuwen Wuji was indeed a master, and caught the change in Yang Chong's mood and asked, "Yang Chong, what did you think of?" ”
Yu Wenhua and Kung Fu are not under Yuwen Wuji, just didn't care about it just now, and when he heard Yuwen Wuji say this, he immediately set his eyes on Yang Chong's face. Yang Chong complained bitterly in his heart, and made up a lie in his mouth: "I was thinking, if I found Sun Simiao, maybe Chu Guogong's illness could be saved." ”
After saying that, Yang Chong regretted it, Sun Simiao was a famous doctor in the Sui Dynasty, Yu Wenkai and Yang Xuangan could they not know? Yu Wenkai shook his head and said: "When Emperor Zhou Jing, Emperor Wen was in charge of the government, and summoned Sun Simiao to be Dr. Guozi, in the first year of the emperor, Sun Simiao saw that the state affairs were varied, and he left suddenly, for more than 20 years, I heard that Sun Simiao lived in seclusion in Taibai Mountain, and when I came back, Yang Yue and Wei Fuzi had already arranged for someone to find them, and there was no news until now. ”
