Chapter 1780: Soju

In the following days, with the serialization of the West Chamber in Datang Entertainment Weekly, the love story of Guo Dabao and Wu Meiniang began to be widely known. Follow? Dream?. lā

In this version of the Legend of the West Chamber, Guo Dabao is a poor scholar who met Wu Meiniang when he was offering incense in the temple by chance.

The two fell in love at first sight, and finally with the help of Xi Bizhu, they made a private decision for life. It's a pity that Wu Meiniang's brothers dislike the poor and love the rich, so they obstruct them and refuse to agree to their family affairs.

In the end, Wu Meiniang forced each other to die, and Wu Yuanqing relented and said that only Guo Dabao was the top student in high school and could they be allowed to get married.

It's a pity that in the imperial examination, Guo Dabao finally lost to Sun Shan. Seeing that his family was hopeless, he chose to commit suicide by hanging a beam. Coincidentally, he met a private visit by Guo Yeweifu, the Duke of Qin, and rescued him.

In order to repay Qin Guogong for saving his life, Guo Dabao offered an ancestral perfume secret recipe. Qin Guogong was overjoyed, and talked with Guo Dabao, and he was very temperamental, so he took the initiative to propose that the two worship as brothers with different surnames.

At this time, Wu Yuanqing had already sent out invitations to find a rich husband for Wu Meiniang. In the end, with the help of Qin Guogong, Guo Dabao took out five tears of the gods worth tens of millions of yuan and hugged the beauty.

Of course, there are many things in this story that can't help but be scrutinized, for example, Wu Yuanqing didn't know Guo Dabao before. For another example, in Chang'an City's rush for the exam, there is no such person as Guo Dabao at all.

However, it doesn't matter at all whether these details matter or not

For the broad masses of the people, as long as the story is good-looking, as for the truth of the matter, who cares

You don't see, thousands of years later, the Quanmei case has become popular, and the Water Margin has been widely spread.

A few people know that in fact, Chen Shimei is a good official and has not killed his wife and children. Wu Dalang is even more of a tall man, he is the county magistrate of Yanggu County, and he is in harmony with Pan Jinlian Qinse.

Completely false things can be spread all over the world, not to mention that the story made up by Guo Ye is nine truths and one falsehood

As the news spread, three effects were produced.

The first effect is naturally to reverse Wu Meiniang's image.

Who chooses the best son-in-law, and finally becomes a dependent, who is Wu Meiniang, who is loyal, and who is the wedding of Wu Meiniang who disobeys the order to the death, and the dowry is the first Wu Meiniang in the world

All of a sudden, she became the idol of all the girls in the boudoir, and everyone hoped to harvest the same love as her.

The second effect is that the reputation of the martial arts brothers is completely stinky in the West Chamber, and Guo Ye portrays them as disgusting and loving the rich, and they are extremely vicious. Readers feel the same way, and naturally hate the two of them so much that they itch their teeth.

For achieving this effect, Guo Ye has no guilt. First of all, the Wu brothers are not a good thing in the first place, and the disgusting thing is even worse than what they wrote.

Secondly, he can be regarded as saving their lives. If it weren't for his own sideways, he would have changed history. When they do those disgusting things to Wu Meiniang, they will inevitably be retaliated against by Wu Meiniang in the future.

As for the third effect, it can be regarded as a bonus. That is, people are becoming more and more interested in mysterious perfumes.

People want to know what is so magical about the perfume that can change the fate of the poor boy Guo Dabao

There was someone who had attended the banquet that night, and he also took the initiative to find Guo Dabao's mansion and ask for perfume.

Therefore, it seems that perfume making is imperative

Perfume is simple to say, how can it really be so easy to make flower water Guo Ye knows that it needs honeysuckle, musk, mint or something.

But as for the perfume, Guo Ye only knows that it is extracted with flower juice and alcohol. But if you think about it with your toes, if it were really that simple, how could the women of later generations pay hundreds or thousands of dollars to buy such a small bottle of things

Helpless, since the cowhide has been blown out, you can't retreat, you can only try it first.

First of all, you don't have to count on alcohol, and it's good to be able to make a high-strength sake.

This step went quite smoothly, and Guo Ye did not understand the modern brewing technology. But the local method of steaming wine, Guo Ye saw it when he was a child.

The only thing that is a little difficult is the problem of utensils, and there are no special retort barrels for steaming wine these days.

After finding a few craftsmen and making the retort barrel, after several experiments, without much effort, Guo Ye tasted the first sip of high-grade wine since the crossing.

"Oops, this wine is really powerful" Guo Ye grinned at the spicy face.

"Husband, this is why the wine you brew is so fragrant" Wu Meiniang walked in.

Before Guo Ye could answer, Wu Meiniang had already drunk half a bowl of high wine, and said, "Good wine, good wine"

"Are you okay?" asked Guo Ye with concern.

"It's okay, the concubine is very good, the wine you brewed is really delicious, the concubine has never drunk such a good wine" Wu Meiniang's little face was flushed, and she was cute.

Guo Ye observed carefully and found that Wu Meiniang did not look like she was drunk, so he was relieved. He said, "This wine is very high, I estimate that it will be 70 degrees, don't drink too much, you know?"

"What does it mean to have a high degree?"

"Uh, it means that it's easy to get drunk when you drink."

"Knowing the husband, the concubine feels that even if she doesn't make any perfume, the money you make with your good wine alone may not be smaller than the perfume business."

Guo Ye shook his head and said, "Don't forget, the main purpose of our perfume making is to fight against the glass business of the Five Great Scholars. This effect is not achieved by making high-grade wine. And in order to keep the secret of perfume, high-grade liquor cannot be sold on a large scale,"

"That's a pity," Wu Meiniang's face was full of regret.

"It can't be helped, a lot of times you can't have the best of both worlds."

"By the way, husband, what should these craftsmen do to let them go, our wine-making skills can't be preserved, I don't think so" Wu Meiniang's eyes began to become fierce.

"Don't, don't," Guo Ye persuaded: "It's not difficult to make a retort bucket, as long as you look at it, you can find a few craftsmen to do it." Could it be that in the future, you will always have to find a few outsiders to brew all the wine yourself. ”

"How do you keep it a secret?"

"I can only spend money to raise them, and strictly prohibit them from contacting outsiders. However, this can only be kept secret for a while. It's been a long time, and it's too inhumane. Not to mention"

Guo Ye sighed and said, "Manpower is sometimes poor. There are no secrets that can be kept forever. I estimate that in ten or so years, or at least three or five years, our competitors will appear. Mei Niang, you have to be ready."

"Ready"

"To put it simply, no one has me, and no one has me. Build brand awareness"

Guo Ye told Wu Meiniang all the business theories of later generations that he could think of.

The little beauty listened to the beautiful eyes and said, "I didn't expect that there are so many big truths in doing business, it's so interesting." Husband, don't worry, the concubine will definitely take care of our family business."

"Then Mei Niang will work hard," Guo Ye encouraged.

The generation of empresses who can be turned into a generation of strong women in shopping malls, Guo Ye also has a sense of accomplishment in his heart. In a happy mood, Guo Ye continued his perfume business

"Husband, this is what you call perfume," Wu Meiniang frowned.

Guo Ye cautiously replied: "Uh, yes, it's okay."

"However, it's not fragrant at all, a strange smell can barely be regarded as toilet water, but it can repel mosquitoes and insects, but who is willing to rub this thing on their body"

"Sorry I'll try again"

Facts have proved that Guo Ye really has no talent for invention and creation, and the perfume reproduction project has failed one after another.

In the end, Guo Ye had no confidence anymore, and said to Wu Meiniang: "Forget it, I don't think the perfume can be made." Or we'll sell the bar."

Wu Meiniang said: "How can it work, many people ask the concubine for perfume, and some people say that perfume is our love token." As a result, I couldn't get out a bottle of perfume, how could I explain it to those people, don't you still expect to defeat the five great scholars with perfume?"

"But the problem is, I really can't make perfume."

Wu Meiniang shook her little fist and said, "I'll try."
