Chapter 73: The Road to Fortune (2)

"No need, I told you that you don't understand, I'll go by myself. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Luo Yi smiled and walked forward with a relaxed pace.

He told Fang Zhizhi before that he had already thought of a solution, not to slap a swollen face and become fat, but to fool Fang Zhizhi, but to really think of a way to make Sixi Restaurant rise rapidly in a short period of time.

Think about the difference between a Tang Dynasty restaurant and a modern hotel?

Luo Yi also figured it out this morning, just relying on out-of-season greenhouse vegetables is far from enough, it can't reach the point where people will not want to linger, unless you have to come up with something that can make people addictive!

In modern society, there are only a few things that can make people addicted, such as cigarettes, alcohol, drugs, games, etc., the first and the latter can be directly filtered out, which is harmful to health and cannot be realized; Only the second one, which seems to work--- wine!

The word wine is not unfamiliar to the people of the Tang Dynasty, and the Sixi Restaurant often sells wine, and there are 300 wines.

However, Luo Yi really didn't dare to compliment the degree of this wine, at most twenty degrees, maybe not twenty degrees.

Du Fu mentioned the eight kinds of alcohol of eight people in the Tang Dynasty in "Song of the Eight Immortals in Drinking", among which Li Bai has such a sentence, called "Li Bai fights wine poems in 100 articles, Chang'an City sleeps in a restaurant, the Son of Heaven does not come to the boat, and claims that the minister is a fairy in wine".

It can be seen that Li Bai drank a bucket!

There is also a sentence called 'Ruyang Sandou begins to face the sky, and the road is salivating at the mouth of Quku', which means that after drinking three buckets of wine in Ruyang, he went to see the Son of Heaven again, which shows that this person drank three buckets of wine in one go.

Three buckets, definitely not less than the weight of a case of beer!

Then the problem comes, since you can drink three buckets in one go, the degree of the wine will definitely not be too high, otherwise you will die of drinking.

In order to confirm this problem, Luo Yi drank a bowl yesterday, indeed, the degree is really not high, if you have to compare it with modern beer, it is equivalent to modern beer, and it is not as good as beer.

Since then, Luo Yi has been wondering if he can bring the modern winemaking technology to the Tang Dynasty, maybe it is really a way to make a fortune.

In fact, I came to the Sixi Restaurant today, just to prepare for winemaking, but I didn't expect to meet Fang Zhizhi, if it wasn't for the delay of Fang Zhizhi's matter, maybe now I have bought all the materials for winemaking.

Thinking about the process of making wine and the materials needed, Luo Yi took Lannie and Er Fat and went straight to the furniture market.

The furniture market is somewhat remote, located in the south of Chang'an, and the people who are mixed here are all some people who are not educated and unskilled, so the security here is also extremely chaotic.

When it comes to wine, of course, it is inseparable from the tools of winemaking, as well as koji, rice flour, and wheat; What Luo Yi wants to buy today is these kinds, all of which are indispensable.

"Boss, do you have any good koji?"

Walking into a store, Luo Yi asked the store.

The shopkeeper looked at the three of them and said with a smile: "Yes, of course there is, please wait a moment." ”

After speaking, the shopkeeper turned around, took out a black ball from a drawer, pinched it, and handed it to Luo Yi.

Lanny didn't understand anything, of course, her face was expressionless.

Er Fat nodded and said, "Well, that's it, it should be koji." ”

"You've seen it?"

"Well, my dad used to help in the cellar, so I've seen it too."

Luo Yi picked up the black koji, shook his head again and again after looking at it, obviously dissatisfied, he had also seen the koji in modern times, it was white, but now the one in his hand is black, and he doesn't know how it is made, anyway, it is different from the modern one.

Koji is the most critical part of winemaking, which is directly related to the quality of wine, and Luo Yi does not dare to be careless.

After looking at it for a while, he didn't buy it, put down the koji and continued walking.

If the koji of the Tang Dynasty could be used, it would not have made a sake with only 20 degrees, and you can know this if you think about it.

Since the koji on the market can't be used, then you have to make your own koji, Luo Yi is a little troubled, with the craftsmanship of the Tang Dynasty, it is a little troublesome to make.

However, in order to achieve the desired effect of the newly made wine, Luo Yi decided to make his own.

The three of them walked on the street, looking at the stalls on both sides from time to time, selling everything, bottles and cans, books and ancient paintings, four treasures of the study, all kinds of furniture, etc., but the most is furniture, after all, this is a furniture market.

"Erfat, is your father sixty years old?"

Walking forward, Luo Yi suddenly turned around and asked a little abruptly.

The second fat didn't know why, so he replied truthfully: "Not yet, I just turned fifty this year." ”

Luo Yi stopped and chuckled: "That's right, let him come to Chang'an too, help me make wine, it just so happens that he has done it before, so he should be more familiar than others." ”

Erfat already knew about winemaking, he was not very optimistic about this matter, other restaurants all directly entered wine in the wine cellar, but Luo Yi actually had to do it himself, and said that he could make better wine than others.

Erfat can only say that he takes it for granted.

Hearing this, he replied: "I don't have any opinion, I just don't know if he is willing to come, if my father leaves, my mother will be left alone at home." ”

"Oh... That's right. ”

Luo Yi was a little disappointed, but after thinking about it, he said again: "It's okay, it's okay, you tell him, if you are willing to come, the salary will be doubled for him." ”

After going around the furniture market, Luo Yi bought a total of more than a dozen things.

There were many other utensils, jars, wine bottles, tables for storing wine, fine millet, wheat, and so on, which cost two taels of silver.

Of course, these things don't need to be moved by hand, and they can't be moved, as long as you pay a little deposit, let the guy send it to the Sixi Restaurant, and pay when the goods arrive.

After a busy day, Luo Yi returned to the Sixi Restaurant, but there was no one in the restaurant as when he went out; On the other hand, the half-price restaurant opposite is full of people coming and going, and it is extremely hot.

Luo Yi didn't have a hot eye, he believed that this was only temporary, as long as the high number of liquor was brewed, it would definitely be able to make a big comeback, and at that time, it would not be able to be measured by price.

In the business field, the so-called price reduction is to be in the case of the same items sold by both parties, if one party's goods are very good, and the other party's garbage, then even if it is more expensive, I believe people will choose good things.

Fang Yi wants to fight a price war, of course Luo Yi will not be fooled, compared to money, he will never be able to compare with the Fang family, but compared to the quality of wine, Luo Yi has an absolute advantage.

You know, this is a high-count liquor that only a traverser can make, is it a straight line?

Therefore, the liquor that Luo Yi is about to brew is no example in the Tang Dynasty, or even in any previous dynasty, and it is truly unprecedented and exclusive.
