Chu Huan approached at this time, but he could see it clearly, this big man's skin was extremely dark, his beard was luxuriant, almost blocking half of his face, but he could see that this big man's nose was extremely high, his forehead bone was slightly convex, his pupils were larger than ordinary people, and his dark eyes were like stars in the night sky, and there was a faint sense of divine might.

The big man suddenly got up and looked at each other angrily, if it was an ordinary person, he was afraid that he would be frightened, but Chu Huan was calm, stretched out his hand, held two plum blossom cakes in his palm, and smiled, since he knew that this big man was deaf, he didn't speak, but the meaning of this action was already very obvious.

The bearded man glanced at the pastry in Chu Huan's hand, his anger eased slightly, but he didn't accept it, he just lay down again, covered his head with the futon, and behaved very strangely.

Huang Fu said: "Brother Chu, you don't have to pay attention to him. This is still brought back by the owner outside a while ago, and seeing that he has some strength, he stayed in the granary to carry grain. I heard that this guy has no salary, so it is good to only give him three meals a day...... It's just that this guy has a bad temper, and whoever gets close to him, he treats him as an enemy. He called Chu Huan by his name before, and at this time, Chu Huan gave him pastries, and he called him brother.

Chu Huan frowned slightly, staring at the bulging futon, thoughtful.

At this moment, there was already the sound of bangs outside, and someone could hear someone shouting: "It's all stopped, the lights are blown out, ...... stopped!" ”

Huang Fu found a cloth towel to wrap a piece of pastry, took another one, and said in a low voice: "Brother Chu, turn off the lights and rest!" ”

Chu Huan took back the pastry, returned to the bedside, blew out the light, and then went to bed and lay down, but he felt very strange in his heart, just now he saw the face of the bearded man clearly, and only felt that the face was quite different from the Central Plains, but it looked like a foreigner, but it was not so obvious.

It's just that this bearded man has a thick beard, which hides most of his face, and if you don't look carefully, it is difficult to see the difference from the Central Plains.

The lights went out, and it didn't take long for Huang Fu and Niu Jin to snore, obviously tired.

Chu Huan closed his eyes, as if he was asleep in a daze, and he didn't know how long it took, he faintly heard a very slight sound from the side, he opened his eyes slightly, but his body did not move, in the dimness, but he saw that the bearded man was getting up from the bed, and his movements were very small, if it wasn't for Chu Huan's excellent hearing, it would be difficult to find the abnormal movement around him.

After the bearded man got up, he walked to the door, opened it, and when he went out, he closed the door very carefully, and then there was no sound.

Chu Huan felt strange in his heart, he had just come to Heshengquan today, but he never expected to meet such a strange person, it was already the middle of the night at this time, but he didn't know where this big man was going.

I wondered if I was too suspicious, and the bearded man might have gone to the thatched house.

The autumn night was quiet, the courtyard was already dead silent, and Sheng Quan was already asleep, Chu Huan waited for a while, and he didn't see the bearded man come back for a long time, and he was even more puzzled in his heart, making sure that the bearded man would never go to the thatched house.

Huang Fu and Niu Jin slept very deeply and snored loudly.

Chu Huan immediately smiled bitterly, that bearded man had nothing to do with him, so why bother to meddle, no matter what he wanted to do, what did it have to do with him?

When I thought of this, I didn't think much about it anymore and fell into a deep sleep.

……

I don't know how long it took, the piercing sound woke Chu Huan from his sleep, he opened his eyes, only to find that the sky had brightened slightly, and a glimmer of dawn shone in through the only window in the wooden house.

Huang Fu and Niu Jin had already hurried up, and there was already a noisy sound in the courtyard, Niu Jin said to Chu Huan: "Brother Chu, hurry up, you go to the hall with me!" ”

Chu Huan knew that Niu Jin was also doing things in the drying hall, nodded, got up, suddenly thought of something, turned his head to look at the bed of the bearded man, and happened to see that the bearded man had already gotten up from the bed and was walking towards the door.

Chu Huan frowned slightly, remembering what happened last night, and he didn't know when the bearded man would come back, if he hadn't seen it in person last night, who would have known that the bearded man had gone out in the middle of the night.

Huang Fu and Niu Jin had already walked out of the door at this time, Chu Huan also followed, and when they went out, the sky was just getting dark, but the courtyard was already full of people from He Shengquan, and the flow of people was going to the kitchen.

Chu Huan followed Niu Jin and also went to the kitchen, and he had already seen the guys lining up, picking up breakfast from the kitchen one by one, and the so-called breakfast was just two steamed buns.

There was a large table in front of the kitchen, on which there was a steamer, and Master Chen stood aside, while Xiao Sanzi and another guy distributed steamed buns to the guys from He Shengquan, and the guys got the steamed buns and went to the workshop while eating.

Chu Huan and Niu Jin took the steamed buns, and then went to the workshop, followed a group of people into the workshop, and arrived at an extremely wide and huge house, Chu Huan smelled the musty smell that rushed to his nose, and also saw that there were piles of half-cooked grain in the east and west.

This is the drying hall, and it is also the most crowded place in the entire workshop, with nearly 40 people in total.

As soon as he entered the drying hall, a middle-aged man wearing a hat stepped forward, and Niu Jin had already whispered to Chu Huan: "That's our little master in the drying hall, you call him Xu Zuoshi...... Remember, don't shout 'Little Maker' in front of the little master, it will make people unhappy. ”

Chu Huan nodded, but he understood very well in his heart that this was like the main and deputy positions in later generations, that is, the deputy positions were in his body, but he didn't want others to add the word "deputy" in front of them when they called the position.

The middle-aged man stepped forward with his hands behind his back, looked at Chu Huan's eyes, and asked, "You are Chu Huan?" ”

"Yes!" Chu Huan nodded and smiled: "Chu Huan has seen Master Xu!" ”

Xu Zuoshi bowed slightly, beckoned Niu Jin over, and ordered: "You take him to mix the ingredients!" He didn't say much, and left.

At this time, everyone had already finished eating the steamed buns and began to do things in place, Niu Jin took Chu Huan to the edge of a grain pile, found a shovel and handed it to Chu Huan, and said softly: "You follow me to stir this wheat material, and you have to mix the koji and ingredients in it evenly." After speaking, he took the shovel and took the lead in demonstrating.

When Chu Huan saw it, he only felt that the shovel in Niu Jin's hand was like a big spatula, and the wheat pile was the vegetables to be fried in the pot, and he used the big spatula to turn over and fry well.

Chu Huan looked at it a few times, and immediately understood that this matter was actually very simple, so he helped stir it up, and Niu Jin had already said softly: "The wine brewed by us is quite different from that of Shengquan. What we have here is wheat winemaking...... You see, there is corn and sorghum in there, but the portions are very small! He raised his hand and pointed to a few other places not far away, where the guy was also stirring the pile of cooked grain like here, and said in a low voice: "Sorghum is the main product over there, and sorghum wine is brewed...... Well, that's barley wine...... This grain is different, the koji is different, and the taste is also different......! ”

Chu Huan was a bartender in his previous life, and he really had a lot of contact with alcohol, red wine, white wine, and rice wine...... Categorized, he can determine the vintage and brand of the wine just by smelling it.

White Horse Village, Mouton Village, Xias, Roman Li. Condair...... Whiskey, brandy, rum...... Moutai, Fenjiu, Wuliangye...... For Chu Huan, these terms are easy to come by and extremely familiar.

However, although Chu Huan knows a lot about all kinds of famous wines, he doesn't know anything about the winemaking industry, and all he comes into contact with is finished wine, and he has never touched the winery, let alone such an ancient winery.

There is no doubt that everything in the wine shop is very strange to Chu Huan, but it is also very novel.

"What kind of sake is that takeka?" Chu Huan asked, "Is it barley wine or sorghum wine?" ”

"It's not barley wine, it's not sorghum wine, it's rice wine!" Niu Jin said with a smile: "Bamboo sake is our signature with Shengquan, but the price of rice is expensive, so the output of bamboo sake is not much, and the price is also very expensive." For every ten jars of wine out of our winery, one jar of wine is bamboo sake! ”

Chu Huan bowed slightly, he had drunk bamboo sake in Yipinxiang, it was indeed a first-class wine, sweet and refreshing, and mellow and fragrant.

At this moment, a cold voice came from his ear: "If you don't want to work, just get out of Heshengquan, eat dry food and don't do anything, we and Shengquan can't afford to raise such an uncle!" ”

Chu Huan frowned, turned his head to look, and saw that the villainous Steward Yuan had come to the dry hall at some point, and looked coldly at this side not far away.

People came and went, Chu Huan was talking to Niu Jin, but he didn't pay attention to Steward Yuan.

Niu Jin's face suddenly turned pale, he lowered his head, didn't say a word, and hurriedly did something.

Chu Huan glanced at Steward Yuan lightly, he remembered Han Yuan's instructions not to easily grudge with Steward Yuan, so he didn't pay attention to it and did things by himself, but his cold reaction made Steward Yuan's face even more gloomy, this Steward Yuan put his hands behind his back, looked at Chu Huan, sneered at the corners of his mouth, and walked away slowly.

The guys in the drying hall were busy, and it didn't take long for Chu Huan to feel sweat on his body, with heat, he stood up straight, wiped the sweat from his forehead, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a guy holding a porcelain jar in his hand, coming towards him, extremely fast.

Chu Huan frowned slightly, he didn't know what the guy was going to do, but he saw the man walking to his side, but he suddenly hit him, Chu Huan reacted very quickly, flashed sideways, the guy hit the air, mixed garlic under his feet, and fell to the ground all of a sudden, the porcelain jar in his hand fell to the ground and shattered, and yellow koji came out of it.

There was a sudden change here, the sound of the porcelain jar cracking, and many people around were about to turn their eyes over, showing doubts one by one.

The guy who fell to the ground was already sitting on the ground at this time, pointing at Chu Huan and screaming, "You...... Why are you hitting me? Did you know that this ...... This is not yet made koji, you ...... It's all your ......! ”

Chu Huan frowned at first, and when he saw Steward Yuan walking quickly over not far away, he suddenly understood something, a chill crossed his eyes, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Before Steward Yuan got closer, he had already raised his hand and pointed at Chu Huan and shouted: "Lao Tzu knows that you are a restless guy, did you just say two words to you, and you will spill your anger on others?" Do you know how much this jar of koji is worth? ”

Chu Huan looked at Steward Yuan lightly, and said calmly: "I didn't hit it!" ”

"You're still quibbling!" Steward Yuan sneered: "I can see clearly, he passed by you, you deliberately hit him, don't you admit it?" ”

"What did you see with your own eyes?" Chu Huan put down the shovel in his hand, wrapped his arms around his chest, and looked at Steward Yuan with a playful look: "Since you saw it, you should know what is going on." You say I hit him, you ...... Are you blind? ”
