Yu heard that Liu Yong said that he was about to be rich, and he was surprised and delighted, and hurriedly asked, "Son, how can we be rich?" ”

Liu Yong said with a smile: "I have been to the wine cellar yesterday, and I can open the cellar and produce wine in the next two days." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoI'm asking the county magistrate to choose an auspicious day for the zodiac. "Chinese, you have to believe what you should believe.

Yu Chuan said: "Okay." I'll pick a day. He also doubted: "Childe, even if the wine is brewed, it will still take time to turn it into cash, and it is still difficult to solve the urgent need." ”

"The county magistrate can rest assured that Liu Yong has his own countermeasures." Liu Yong whispered in Yu Flip's ear, and Yu Flip smiled when he flipped up.

"County magistrate, can I use the money to buy medicine now?"

Yu Fu laughed and said, "Okay, the old man just listens to the son." ”

The next day, a notice was issued and posted to every household, stating that a county-wide emergency drill for epidemic prevention and control would be carried out for half a month from the day after tomorrow, and everyone did not need to panic.

Liu Yong took strict measures to enter and exit, and all patients with fever were admitted outside the city for unified treatment. All people who are engaged in and come into contact with patients are required to take anti-disease potions such as Wuwei Disinfectant Drink, Ginger Jujube Mint Drink, and Mulberry Leaf Chrysanthemum Flower Water prepared by Liu Yong. Dong Xi led people to conduct investigations from time to time, and once suspected patients were found, they were immediately admitted. Before people knew it, an epidemic that could bring serious consequences was eliminated by this real exercise.

Liu Yong regretted that in fact, the better way is for everyone to develop good hygiene habits, but unfortunately these measures are impractical without solving the problem of food and clothing. Forget it, let's talk about it when a lot of money is accumulated in the future, Liu Yong cheered himself up from the heart.

Seven days later, it was an auspicious day, and Yu Pan personally came forward, accompanied by Liu Yong, Dong Xi, Hua Tuo, etc., and invited more than a dozen people from several wine sellers and wealthy families in the county to visit Liu Yong's winery. Because it was the first time he had made wine, Liu Yong used bran, rice, and sorghum to make one-third of the ingredients, and the purpose of this was to ensure the success of the winemaking.

Before they got closer, they smelled a strong aroma of wine from afar, and these good drinkers were very excited, and their steps quickened. Entering the workshop, the aroma of wine becomes more intense and refreshing, only to see that the fog is rising inside, some are drying, some are dressing, and some are loading the altar...... Each process is carried out in an orderly manner.

"This is the cellar, isn't it?" Yu turned curiously at the row of boxy pools. These pools are covered with a thick layer of rehmannia mud, which is wet and exudes a rich aroma of wine.

"Exactly." Liu Yong arched his hand and said, "Please give an order to the county magistrate." ”

Yu Pan nodded, stretched his voice, and said loudly: "Cellar." The worker next to him was already ready to stop, and as soon as Yu Xuan's words fell, he moved his hands to pick up the soil. The cellar pool was immediately filled with white mist, and a rich aroma of wine rushed into the nose, which immediately made people salivate. Workers shovel the sake lees into a trolley, transport it to the semi-finished product room and filter it into the original liquor, and then send it to distillation and concentration, and then it becomes a high-grade liquor.

Liu Yong said with a smile: "The distillation process will not be allowed to you to visit. To tell you the truth, the day before yesterday we came out of the two cellars, and the finished product has been made, please come with me. Everyone was full of interest, so they strode with Liu Yong to the finished product storage room, and a worker slapped open a sealed jar of wine and poured it into a small bowl on the table.

"Then we're welcome." Yu Chuan smiled slightly, "Everyone, all of us are up, and we will all come to taste the wine that Liu Gongzi made for us." Yu flipped to the end of his nose and sniffed lightly, then took a sip, sipped his lips, and said happily: "Wonderful." Then he asked, "How do you think it's different from what we usually drink?" ”

Someone said, "The smell is fragrant, the entrance is sweet and refreshing, and it is really worthy of the jade liquid elixir." Zhou Cang said loudly: "I thought this was called wine, and all I drank before was water." The crowd laughed, and although it was vulgar, it was very reasonable.

Liu Yong said with a smile: "If this wine is stored for another three or five years, the taste will be stronger and the smell will be more fragrant." ”

"What do you think of this wine? If it is shipped to Xiangyang, Jiangxia and other places, can it be sold well? This sentence was said by Yu Chuan to the merchants.

"Dare to ask the county magistrate, what is the price?"

This question is what everyone is most concerned about, and they all look at Yu Translation. Yu Fu immediately quoted the price, and the merchants gasped, "County magistrate, why is this wine so expensive?" ”

Liu Yong said on the side: "Ladies and gentlemen, this wine has a mellow taste, far from being comparable to those light and tasteless ordinary wines, what is the reason?" Liu Yong asked and replied: "Four catties of grain can make one catty of high-grade liquor, do you calculate, is the price high?" What's more, there is only one way to brew this wine, if you ship it to Xiangyang and other places and sell it to local big households, can you not make a lot of money? ”

How shrewd these businessmen are, as soon as they make calculations, they have a plan in their hearts.

"Childe, I've got all the wine you have here." A businessman said excitedly.

"You've got it. Do you think you're angry because you have a lot of money? Another businessman was unconvinced.

"Can I just have a few altars?" Another merchant whispered, perhaps with limited financial resources, and had no confidence in speaking, "But I can pay in cash." ”。

"Do you have any money? I also pay cash, and in addition, I have to book the next batch, and I also pay cash. ”

"Can I just buy a few jars to eat at home?"

Seeing that these people are not giving in to each other, and the effect of the wine tasting and sales meeting is obvious, Yu Fu was overjoyed, and said with a smile: "Everyone, don't fight." As long as you want to share in this first batch of wine, you only need to pay cash, and the money will be delivered, and you will not owe it on credit. As for the proportion, this time it will be decided by lottery, and it depends on your luck. If you need to set a batch, you will go to the main book to register it later, because the output is limited, it can only be on a first-served basis. In addition, if you can pay in advance, the price will be discounted by 10%. ”

Seeing the merchants and wealthy people running towards the main book like a whirlwind, Yu Fu couldn't help but smile, and finally could alleviate the problem of money and food. I didn't want Liu Yong to whisper in his ear again: "County magistrate, Liu Yong still has a way to make money." ”

Yu turned surprised and delighted, and said with a smile: "Son, come quickly." ”

"County magistrate, there are a lot of people here, why don't we go back to the county government and talk about it."

"Good. Just you, I, Mr. Hua, and Miss Yun, let's talk about this while drinking tea. ”

When the four of them returned to the county office, Dong Yun was boiling water and making tea on the side, Yu turned over and was impatient, so he asked, "What about the method that Gongzi said?" ”

Liu Yong said categorically: "Concoct medicine and wine." ”

Yu said puzzledly: "Medicinal wine, what do you mean, is there anything special about this?" ”

Liu Yong had to be a teacher again, and said to Hua Tuo: "Ask sir, what is the function of using wine as medicine?" ”

Hua Tuo said with a smile: "The Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon? Corpse? In the chapter "On Courage", it is said, "The winer, the essence of the water valley, the liquid of the ripe grain, its qi is fierce"; Therefore, the guard qi has been flattened, the camp qi is full, and the meridians are prosperous. ’； The Book of Han? Food and Goods Journal" said, "Wine is the length of a hundred medicines", wine can pass through the blood, disperse moisture, warm the stomach, resist wind and cold, carry out medicine, and kill a hundred evil poisonous gases. ”

Liu Yong went on to explain: "Drinking less wine is modest, it has the function of nourishing the spleen and liver, staying color, honoring the skin, and clearing the blood and blood. Medicinal wine, which is to soak medicine in wine, has many benefits compared to decoction. First, wine can brew more useful things out of the medicine, and second, wine has the function of invigorating blood and passing through menstruation, which can guide the medicine to reach the patient's place, so the effect is faster and the effect is more obvious; The third is to use wine to soak medicine, which is resistant to storage, not easy to deteriorate, and can be drunk at any time, which is very convenient. ”

Yu Pan was puzzled: "Since medicinal wine has so many benefits, why hasn't anyone brewed it before?" ”

Hua Tuo continued: "County magistrate, the old man has long known the benefits of soaking wine, but the wine used must be highly liquor. Otherwise, the ingredients in the medicine will not be soaked out, and it will not be resistant to storage, and the effect will not be good. ”

Yu listened to Hua Tuo's explanation and nodded, but he was still skeptical, and asked again: "The old man thinks that the high-grade liquor is already quite expensive, wouldn't it be even more expensive to brew it into medicinal wine, how many people can afford it?" ”

Although Hua Tuo knew the role of soaking wine, he had never calculated the economic account, so he had to hand over this problem to Liu Yong. Liu Yong said confidently: "I was about to report this matter to the county magistrate." I want to divide the wine-making business into two parts, one is mainly grain-brewing, such wine tastes good and tastes sufficient, in order to save food, the output does not have to be too high, but the price must be high, and it is only sold to the rich; The other is mainly straw, wheat bran, etc., with poor taste, but high yield and low cost, which can be sold to ordinary people, and can be brewed into medicinal wine to increase the price, so that the two-pronged approach will definitely add great income to the county. ”

"The old man thinks the former item is feasible, but the medicinal wine must be drunk only by the sick, how big is the market?" Yu is still a little unoptimistic.

Liu Yong said with a smile: "The county magistrate doesn't know that if the medicinal wine is used for treatment, it is also to treat some chronic diseases that are difficult to heal for many years. Yu looked at Hua Tuo and said, "Mr. Hua, is that so?" Hua Tuo coughed dryly, and Hao Ran said: "I'm ashamed, the old man also knows nothing about medicine and wine. However, with the old understanding, what Liu Gongzi said is very reasonable, and he asked Gongzi to say it clearly. ”

Liu Yong said with a smile: "Medicinal wine can be divided into two categories, one is used to treat diseases, such as bruising wine with the function of relaxing muscles and activating the nerves, rheumatism medicinal wine with wind and blood, pain relief and paralysis and pain, etc., but these are not within the scope of my focus this time, and what I am talking about below is another type of wine, called health wine." ”

"Health wine?"

"Yes, health wine. The main functions of health care medicinal liquor are to nourish qi and blood, warm the kidneys and strengthen yang, nourish the stomach and essence, strengthen the heart and calm the nerves, and have qi and blood supplements, spleen and qi, yin and blood, and qi and ......" Hua Tuo and Yu Tuozheng were dizzy when they heard this, Liu Yong smiled mysteriously and said, "There are two kinds of wine that are the most marketable, and it can be said that they are trending." ”

"What is it?" Hua Tuo and Yu Tuo asked in unison.

"One is called health wine, which has the function of nourishing and strengthening the body, maintaining health and preventing diseases, and drinking it often can strengthen the body, delay aging, and prolong life. It is said that this Zhou Gong took this wine for more than 40 years and lived for more than 100 years, and his descendants also took this wine for three generations, and they all lived for more than 100 years. ”

Hua Tuo was even more overjoyed and said, "Can the son tell me carefully." ”

Liu Yong pretended to hesitate and said: "Originally, with the virtue of Mr., Liu Yong should have made peace with him, without reservation, but when Fu Yi was using his own money, he had to consider it." ”

Hua Tuo said suddenly: "It turns out that the son is worried that the old man will give the prescription to others." After a pause, he added, "That's it." At this time and that time, the old man promised you that you would not transfer the formula to others. ”

Liu Yong thanked him: "Thank you, sir." It's just that there's a reluctant invitation below. ”

Hua Tuo frowned and sighed lightly: "I'm afraid it's against the original intention of the old decay." ”

Liu Yong said embarrassedly: "It's not a very difficult thing to do. Mr. This medicinal wine can be prepared and used at will, but Mr. must explain that this is the exclusive secret recipe provided by Fuyi. ”

Hua Tuo smiled bitterly: "The son is really cunning, and he actually wants the old man to promote it for you." But if you don't agree, you won't be able to do it, and this high-grade wine is only available to you. ”

Liu Yong arched his hand and grinned: "Thank you, sir, Liu Yong will tell Mr. the prescription." Waiting for Hua Tuo to prepare the pen and paper, Liu Yong said slowly and softly: "12 grams of astragalus, 12 grams of cocos, 6 grams of atractylodes, 8 grams of rehmannia, 8 grams of angelica, 8 grams of raw land, 6 grams of codonopsis, 6 grams of wheat winter, 6 grams of Poria cocos, 6 grams of Guangchen peel, 6 grams of mountain firewood meat, 6 grams of wolfberry, 6 grams of Chuanxiong, 6 grams of parsnip, 6 grams of turtle gum, 5 grams of schisandra, 5 grams of Qianghuo, 4 grams of cinnamon, the above 18 herbs plus 200 grams of red dates, 200 grams of rock sugar, and 5 catties of liquor. ”

Hua Tuo doubted: "What does Childe mean by grams?" ”

Liu Yong's face turned red, and he scolded himself, he was dizzy, how could he tell all the modern units? After a little thought, he explained: "This gram is the weight unit of the Western Regions, and it is about 16 grams if it is exchanged for 1 tael in our Han system. ”

Hua Tuo nodded, and used a note on the side, but listened to Liu Yong say again: "The brewing system is also exquisite." 5 catties of liquor mentioned above, of which 1 catty of liquor is used to wash the impurities and dust in the medicinal materials, drain it, soak it in the remaining 4 catties of wine together with the peeled red dates, and then put it in a ventilated and cool place, and after seven days, the medicinal wine can be drunk. ”

After seeing Hua Tuo's memory, Liu Yong continued: "When taking it, you can add some honey appropriately, honey can nourish yin and nourish the skin, moisten the intestines and laxative, and adding it to the medicinal wine can not only remove the dryness of the medicinal wine, but also help maintain and improve the efficacy of the medicine." This wine has the function of prolonging life and rejuvenating immortality, and can be called 'the world's first health wine'. (Note: This party is from Mr. Jin Yan's blog, I would like to express my gratitude and respect)

Yu was overjoyed and said with a smile: "If the son makes this wine, the old man will definitely be the first to taste it." Liu Yong said secretly, it seems that longevity is the lifelong pursuit of most people, so he smiled slightly and said: "County magistrate, there is another kind of wine, once it is launched, its popularity is probably higher than that of health wine." ”

Yu Fu was even more surprised, and hurriedly said, "What kind of wine is this?" ”

Liu Yong glanced at Dong Yun and said with a smile: "Yun'er, you avoid it." Dong Yun blushed and said, "It's not a good wine." As he spoke, he ran out in a burst of broken steps.
