Early in the morning, Liu Xu woke up and felt much more comfortable.

Last night, Xu Jin'er used medicinal wine to rub all the abrasions when Liu Xu rolled down from Qingfeng Mountain a few days ago. Thinking of the jade hand stroking last night, although it was a treatment of injuries, it was really ecstatic.

Liu Xu remembered that he had made an appointment with Cui Ye yesterday to go to the drunken cloud building today, and immediately got up and walked to the Yunmen Wine Workshop, it is estimated that at this hour, Cui Ye must be in the Wine Workshop.

The sun is shining, the golden sunlight is sprinkled in the streets and alleys, Liu Xu can't help but sigh, it's good to have a peaceful life!

When passing by the breakfast stall at Uncle Guan's house on Xinyue Street, Liu Xu asked for a bowl of Yanyue wontons, sat down on a low stool and ate it slowly. Uncle Guan's wontons are authentic, the filling is thin and thin, and the shape is like a big knife, Uncle Guan regards himself as a descendant of Guan Gong, so he calls his wontons Yanyue.

Although Uncle Guan's stall was very small, there were really a lot of people who came to his glaive wonton every morning.

Everyone is a neighborhood in the street, and they are piled up, and it is inevitable that they will talk about the mountains, swing the dragon gate or something. This morning's topic is naturally the extermination of the Sanshan bandits, which spread in the market yesterday.

There were too many people, and the low stools were not enough, so a few neighborhood men squatted under the big tree next to the breakfast stall, holding wontons, eating and chatting.

A man in black who Liu Xu didn't know said while eating wontons: "Hey, you say this Kou Zhizhou is powerful, right?" Not long after the new official took office, he exterminated all the bandits from the Three Mountains who had been suffering from Qingzhou for decades, and it was really resolute. ”

A short man next to the man in black said: "I heard that Kou Zhizhou, who used to be in charge of the Privy Council in the imperial court, came to our Qingzhou, and wanted to make some political achievements, of course, he started from the bandits." ”

A middle-aged man in a green robe said: "Have all these bandits from the three mountains been wiped out?" For many years, these bandits from the three mountains have changed one stubble after another, and they have always been unclean. If it is really wiped out, it will be a great thing, and the trade routes will be unobstructed in the future. Liu Xu looked at it, this person knew him, and he was a courtier of Wang's pawnshop on Xinyue Street.

At this time, an old man who had just walked over with a wonton said: "I'm afraid that this time it was really cleaned up, you didn't see it yesterday, I went to the tailor shop on the edge of the Dai Sect Gate in the West City Gate to cut clothes with my daughter, but I happened to meet the bandit team entering the city!" Hundreds of the robber captives of the Three Mountains alone were captured, and their hands were cut back, and they were put on a rope and escorted into the city by the sergeants. There are also many black-armored cavalry of the forbidden army, all riding high-headed horses, black armor and black helmets, and there are many heads on the horses, and many infantry sergeants have a lot of heads on them, I am afraid that the Sanshan bandits have really been exterminated this time. In the past few years, we have seen those township soldiers, and they have become some ruffians, but these forbidden troops are really murderous, and my Great Song Dynasty has not yet fallen. Liu Xu listened to the voice and looked over, it turned out that this old man was his neighbor Yang Laozhang.

The Great Song Dynasty was politically enlightened, and even if the people talked about state affairs, they would not be lightly punished, so the people in the market were quite concerned about state affairs.

Liu Xu secretly thought in his heart that the news in Qingzhou City was really well-informed, as soon as he entered the city yesterday, the people in the city knew about it, it seems that this extermination of the bandits in the Three Mountains is really a very happy thing.

Liu Xu listened to everyone's chatter while eating, and of course, he inevitably exchanged a few words with acquaintances and neighbors.

Liu Xu finished eating the bowl of authentic Glaive wontons, said goodbye to everyone, got up and walked towards Yunmen Wine.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Cui Ye now attaches great importance to his first independent business, Yunmen Distillery, and will always come to the Distillery to take a turn if he has nothing to do.

When Liu Xu arrived at the winery, Cui Ye was looking at the accounts of the winery this month, and when he saw Liu Xu coming, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Cui Ye smiled: "Second brother is here, just about to tell you." I read the accounts of the first month of our winery, and it is good, it can be said that it is off to a good start. This month, after removing costs and expenses, there are still 2,000 yuan of profit left, which is really good. ”

When Liu Xu heard that there was so much profit in the first month, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and at the same time, he was a little smacked at the wealth of the people of the Great Song Dynasty.

Liu Xu sat down and chatted with Cui Ye about the wine shop. After talking about the business and accounts, Liu Xu told some of the relevant knowledge of winemaking that later generations knew, and discussed it with Cui Ye, including some of the winemaking processes of later generations, as well as storage methods.

In later generations, the wine stored in the cave was sold for tens of thousands of dollars per bottle, and Liu Xu suggested that the winery could think about finding a large cave to store wine in the future. The cave is enclosed at a constant temperature, and it is extremely suitable for storing wine. At that time, the cave sake can be sold as a high-end sake in the brewery. The western part of Qingzhou is mountainous, and now that the bandits in the three mountains have been wiped out, it is not too difficult for the Cui family to find a natural or artificial cave near the stone unloading shed.

At the same time, Liu Xu also proposed to distinguish the soju degree of his own distillery. The blending of liquor is roughly divided into five types: 30 degrees, 40 degrees, 50 degrees, 60 degrees, and 70 degrees, so as to meet the needs of different alcohol lovers for different degrees of soju.

Liu Xu also suggested building several large cellars to store the finished wine, and the effect of cellaring wine was also good.

Our own brewery is still in its infancy, and of course these need to be improved slowly. Regarding Liu Xu's suggestions, Cui Ye wrote them down one by one, listened to his words, and arranged for people to do it as soon as possible.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

After the matter was dealt with, and the time was close to noon, Cui Ye proposed to go to the small gathering of the Yunzhu girl in the drunken cloud building. Yesterday, Cui Ye had already sent someone to tell Wang Zeng that he would put pressure on Liu Xu at noon today. And yesterday, Cui Ye also made an appointment with Miss Yunzhu. Hearing that Liu Xu was going, Miss Yunzhu pushed away other entertainment and waited for Liu Xu and them.

Since Cui Ye has arranged it, Liu Xu will not refuse, and he really misses the temperament beauty of Shengxue in white.

Cui Ye sent a carriage to pick up Wang Zeng in the Dwarf Pine Garden, and he and Liu Xu walked to the Yunzhu building on the bank of the Nanyang River.

When they came to Yunzhu Courtyard, Yunzhu and Xiaoyue were already waiting at the door of the small building. Yunzhu is still Na Shengxue's white clothes, Xiaoyue is still so cute, Liu Xu came to Yunzhu Xiaolou to feel so kind.

As soon as they met, Yun Zhu inevitably asked Liu Xu this and that with concern. Liu Xu was kidnapped this time, Yunzhu and Xiaoyue were also very worried, and now that they saw that Liu Xu was fine, they were finally at ease.

Not long after Liu Xu and Cui Ye sat down, Wang Zeng arrived.

When Wang Zeng saw Liu Xu, he couldn't help but be concerned and condolent.

Liu Xu felt very warm in his heart, he was no longer alone in Da Song, and he had many relatives and friends who cared about him. The feeling of loneliness when he first came to the Great Song Dynasty has gradually moved away from Liu Xu's heart.

The food and drinks were already ready, and the four of them sat down to drink and chat.

Wang once asked about the whole story of Liu Xu's kidnapping. Liu Xu smiled bitterly and said that it was Su Qingpin who was jealous that he had robbed him of his reputation as the number one talent in Qingzhou, so he hired a murderer to kidnap him.

Wang Zeng couldn't help but scold Su Qingpin for being a scum and a literati in vain, he seemed to be sanctimonious, but secretly he was so dirty.

Yunzhu heard Liu Xu say that Su Qingpin was looking for someone to kidnap him, and he couldn't help but feel a little strange in his heart. I'm afraid that Su Qingpin's kidnapping of Liu Xu has something to do with her refusing Su Qingpin's non-sub-request and asking Liu Xu for a word! Yun Zhu couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart, and his gaze at Liu Xu brought more tenderness.

Wang Zeng and Yunzhu had opinions about Su Qingpin, but Cui Ye said with a smile: "In the final analysis, the second brother is too talented, and he wrote those wonderful words and robbed Su Qingpin's name as the first talent, I'm afraid that I can't arouse Su Qingpin's killing intent." ”

When Yunzhu heard Cui Ye say this, he couldn't help but say angrily to Cui Ye: "According to what Cui Gongzi said, Su Qingpin should have kidnapped Erlang?" Fame is earned by ability, and it is reasonable to kidnap others. Erlang is highly talented, and it is natural that he can become the first talent in Qingzhou. ”

Cui Ye saw Yun Zhu's anger, and hurriedly explained with a smile: "Hehe, Yun Xingshou will be wrong about me, isn't this a compliment to the second brother?" ”

Liu Xu couldn't help blushing a little, when did he become the first genius at his half-baked level? Hurriedly smiled: "What about my talent?" You two don't laugh at me. ”

Wang Zeng said: "Second brother, don't be modest, who in Qingzhou doesn't know the name of your first talent in Qingzhou now?" Many students in our academy who are consciously talented want to come to the second brother to compete! This is a competition with the first talent, if you lose, you will not lose it, and if you win, you will become famous in one fell swoop. The second brother had a headache in the future. ”

Liu Xu couldn't help but be busy and humble.

Liu Xu said in his heart: I have always wanted to be low-key, why did I unknowingly become the first talent? That's not what I intended. I am at this half-level level, and it's strange if I don't show my stuffing when I try to do it!
