On the second day, he ordered Zihei and others to suspend business in the name of inviting the existing guests of the inn, although several shopkeepers were slightly unhappy in their hearts, but under the strong pressure of the supervisor, they still accompanied the smiling face to carefully send away every guest, and the execution was so strong that even some guests were not charged, as if they were rushing people. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info fortunately in Luoyang City, there are many inns, and not many people know that several inns belong to the same boss, so no one noticed that several inns were closed at the same time, otherwise how could not be strange.

The same is true for the grain store, after the two grain banks received a large amount of funds from the supervisor, they began to buy wheat and sake frantically, at this time the staple food is mainly millet rice, and some time ago because of the white rice caused the rice to rise wildly, naturally the wheat was ignored, so the market price is cheap, and the other grain merchants or sympathetic or contemptuous eyes, the two shopkeepers actually surprisingly received a lot, beyond imagination. And although sake is not as cheap as wheat, it also collects dozens of jars. It's just that these two shopkeepers don't know what the king thinks in his heart, and they will inevitably complain, but it is for the good of the royal family, so Zhou Bian also praised it before appeasing the past.

On the ironware side, Zhou Bian mainly wanted to make a pot and spatula out, in fact, this was also the idea he had when he first returned to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, Zhou Bian was not very picky about food, so he didn't think of stir-frying until now when he wanted to make money. Stir-fried is the basic feature of Chinese cuisine that distinguishes it from other dishes, with a saucer-shaped thin pig iron pot, hot oil, divided into boiled stir-fry, raw stir-fry, small stir-fry, cooked stir-fry, etc., and in the real Chinese history, it was not until the Song Dynasty that there was stir-fried food, and its early rise period, only existed in the Song capital Bianjing (now Kaifeng), and it was also the first unique activity of wine shops and restaurants, and then it slowly became popular. With the freshness and tenderness of stir-frying, it must be a big hair, but the most rare thing in actual operation is the production of the pot, and I don't know whether the technology is not far away or the overall industry technology is too poor at this time, and the pot is cracked as soon as it is burned, after many tests, Zhou Bian also helped Zi not far to think of a lot of ways, so he had to thicken the pot to solve the strength problem, but the problem is that the temperature in the pot is slow, fortunately, just burn more firewood, fortunately life at this time did not pay attention to low carbon.

The production of pottery is much simpler, from the royal potter who came to the week to understand, after finding a small inn and changing it into a small factory, the first furnace came out. In fact, stainless steel is used in the wine industry now, but there will be no such conditions, so you can only use pottery instead. Zhou Bian didn't plan to make sake directly, which would take too long, but purified the purchased sake by distillation, and obtained sake with a higher degree. This method is so simple that today's elementary school students understand it. And now Zhou Bian operates, the biggest problem is in the cooler, because there is no stainless steel, so when the design is started, a set is added to the pottery, and cold water is constantly poured to ensure the smooth condensation of alcohol.

During the first test, Zhou Bian called the selected guys and Zhou Mi, and did not explain what they were going to do, after all, there is no probability of distillation yet. I saw that under the command of Zhou Bian, everyone set up the stall, first the soju, as long as it was not boiling, and then everyone watched as the outlet of the ceramic cooler first flowed down a drop of liquid, as the cooler was constantly poured cold water, the liquid flowed faster and faster, and in a blink of an eye, a bowl was received. Zhou Bian brought the distilled wine, put it to his nose and smelled it, and sure enough, the wine was fragrant and strong, with a slight smell of grain. Licking it lightly with his tongue, a fierce spicy mouth chokes his throat, and it seems that the degree is more than 60 degrees. Remembering that he was only nine years old and could not drink spirits, he raised the bowl of spirits and shouted, "Which of you dares to come and taste this new spirit for this king?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, and only after half a sound did a person jump out of the guards, seeing it as Zhou Zhan, only to see him roll up his sleeves and say loudly, "A certain brother is here, and a certain is the king to taste it." ”

Zhou Bian was about to faint when he heard this, and he dared to think that this was poison after watching it for a long time, did they think that this king was going to refine poison and poison those disobedient princes? It's really good at thinking, didn't you see that this king also licked a small bite just now, but Zhou Bian didn't say much, but handed the wine bowl over, "Don't drink too much in one gulp, be careful not to choke." ”

Zhou Zhan took it after giving it up, and looked up with a mouthful, and he was really straightforward. Then he put the bowl down, closed his eyes and seemed to savor it. Everyone was in a hurry, but Zhou Tong was in a hurry, and couldn't help asking, "What do you think, eldest brother?" And they also began to ask.

Zhou Bian smiled and didn't speak, half an hour passed, and then Zhou Zhan opened his eyes, let out a sigh of relief, looked around suspiciously, and staggered out the word "good wine" in the eager eyes of everyone, "Good wine!" After that, he raised the wine bowl, raised his head and took another big sip, and after drinking, he couldn't help but open his mouth wide and exhale again, and then said, "It's really good wine, it's worth dying after drinking this wine." ”

Zhou Bian smiled at this time, "This king naturally knows that it is a good wine, so he deliberately did not explain it first, and rewarded me with a bowl of spirits in the first week of the Great Zhou." If you are interested, you can taste the wine left over from the first warrior of my Great Zhou. ”

After that, Zhang Hu on Zhou Zhan's side snatched the wine bowl, and took a sip of the cow, but he choked and coughed a few times. ”

In fact, this wine is still far worse than the fine wines of later generations, Zhou Bian is not a winemaker after all, and he barely knows how to distill liquor to increase the degree of wine, which is already good. But for the ancient people, this wine can already be regarded as immortal wine.

In the midst of laughter, a bowl of wine was quickly snatched up, and the guards and guys who were still not rushing looked at it with blank eyes, Zhou Bian saw this and said, "Don't worry, you can make a few more bowls today, and everyone can drink them in one sip." Then the people rejoiced.

In fact, the degree of this liquor is too high, Zhou Bian then conducted several experiments, or mixed with water or the residual juice left after distilling alcohol in the pot, and invited everyone to taste, only then did he find a way to taste the best, so that the wise among the men wrote it down, and then they came to refine the dozens of vats of sake in turn. Two guards were also ordered to be present to prevent anyone from stealing drinks.

But that's not all. At this time, there was also a stone mill, but the flour made from wheat was not fine, and only some coarse pasta could be fried, so wheat was not popular in the market. Zhou Bian improved the memory of later generations and added grinding teeth, it became a low-speed rotary mill, and a small donkey was used to pull the mill, which was really different from the flour sold on the market. Zhou Bian personally demonstrated, with water and noodles, more water and more noodles, not to mention, finally reconciled in the amazed eyes of everyone, and then pulled into slender strips, thrown into the boiling water Ding, after a while, it was scooped up for everyone to taste, as expected, won everyone's praise. So a small inn was converted into a mill, and two guards were set up.

However, the kitchen has been renovated in the Rifle Inn, because the Rifle Inn is the largest, and Zhou Bian's plan is to change the Rift Inn into a luxury restaurant that is second to none in the future, and it is naturally the first place to stir-fry food. It must be another few days of demonstration, pour in lard, throw in the side dishes after boiling, and then put the ingredients after stir-frying, Rao is Zhou Bian has never learned cooking in his previous life, but he has never eaten pork and has always seen the pig run. After teaching everyone the basic precautions, a smart guy stepped forward and fried it on a big fire, and Zhou Bian tasted it much better than what he did, and he couldn't help blushing and retreated, but the guys studied it on their own.

Ten days have passed in a blink of an eye, and everyone has become accustomed to Zhou Bian's endless new ideas, all of them think that the new opening of the inn will be on fire, and there are also people with many hearts, such as prison armor, who are not idle all day long, wandering around, for fear that someone will tell secrets and leak out.

On this day, Zhou Bian was discussing the reopening of the hotel with Jian Jia, Zihei and others in the Laifu Inn, but when he heard a commotion outside the door, Jian Jia got up and called the guards to ask, but there was a fresh face outside the door who wanted to come in, but was stopped by the guy guarding the door, so the noise was louder.

This hotel has been closed, how can anyone still want to come in, is it not a familiar person, thinking of this, Zhou Bian's heart moved, so he called out to Jian Jia and walked out, sure enough, before he went out, he saw that Wang Sunman was standing at the door, Jian Jia hurriedly walked out, drank the man, and only then let Wang Sunman and others enter, but there were still two people, Liu Zixi and Shan Wen, who also followed Wang Sunman.

After everyone sat down, they listened to Wang Sun Man saluting Zhou Bian and said, "King, a few days ago, I came to the Fu Inn to look for the king, but I heard Fan Yu say that the king went elsewhere, so I had to go back to Chengzhou first. Last year, when the first king passed away, the king ascended the throne in the cold winter, and it was inconvenient to travel, and at this time it was already spring, and after the Taishi and the young master and others discussed, it was decided that we and the other three envoys would go to the countries, so as to inform the countries. The prince specially ordered the three of us to come to worship the king first, and then I went with the king's permission. ”

"As determined by the Grand Master, there is naturally no problem. However, according to the king, every time you go to a place, you need to observe the customs of the nations and state affairs, and when you return, you need to report to the king. But I don't know which country each of you is going to? Zhou Bian nodded.

"A certain to the east, the envoy Han Wei Song Luqi, Liu Zixi to the north, is Wei, Zhao, Zhongshan and Yan, Doctor Shan to the west and then to the south, to envoy Qin Chuyue, although Doctor Shan has traveled to a small number of countries, but the road is the farthest." Wang Sunman said.

"Well, this king has no opinion, you can each take a BMW, so as not to get tired on the road." Zhou Bian also knew that envoys were important.

Unexpectedly, Wang Sunman shook his head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, but now that my Great Zhou is starting, I can't start extravagant, just bring a groom and an old carriage." ”

"The same is true of a certain person, in the past, it was only necessary to travel around the world on two legs, if it wasn't for the king's face, even the carriage would not be necessary." Shan Wen smiled, and Liu Zixi also nodded in agreement.

"That's fine, it's just that I've wronged you. It's just that this king doesn't know, but do you want to bring a gift? ”

Wang Sunman shook his head again, "The king, with the wealth of the princes and the poverty of the royal family, then we still need these, we can just inform us when we go, and the king doesn't have to break the bank." ”

Zhou Bian thought about it and thought it was, so he nodded. However, the people of my royal family are going on a business trip, and the leader naturally wants to express it, so Zhou Bian entertained him with new food and wine, and after being full of wine and food, he couldn't help but be amazed by the novelty of the king, and after a while, the three of them reluctantly left.
