Chapter 11: Chance Encounters

Liu Fan originally wanted to leave, but when he thought about it, the phone didn't come back yet! So he said, "Your Majesty, the grass people's mobile phone is still with you!" I don't know how to process sake without a mobile phone! Let's see if you give me back your phone! ”

"Oh! I have forgotten for a while that Aiqing's treasure is still here with me these days, and I wanted to send someone to inform you that your "mobile phone" is unusable for some reason! Since you have a usefulness, I will return it to you! "You're not out of time! You don't want to give it back to me! Liu Fan despised Xindao

"That's out of power! There's just no energy! Can't drive anymore! It's useless! The grass people can only try slowly! Although Liu Fan has a spare battery, Liu Fan doesn't want to take it out at all!

"Huh? Such a fetish can't be used! What a pity! Can't Aiqing fix it? Chongzhen asked with a regretful face

Will you still give it to me if it's fixed? Hum!

"No more! He needs electricity to drive! Daming has no electricity now! With Daming's current scientific and technological water products, it is basically impossible to use! Liu Fan said helplessly

"It's a pity! Since this thing is Aiqing's beloved thing, then Aiqing will collect it herself! ”

"Is there anything I need to prepare for Aiqing Sake Brewing?" Chongzhen cared

"Your Majesty, it's not making wine, it's purifying wine! It can improve the quality of sake! I don't know how to make sake! ”

"Even so, I will send someone to help Aiqing! Wang Daban, arrange for a few people to go back with Mr. Liu! Chongzhen said to Wang Chengen! Bidding farewell to Chongzhen, Liu Fan followed Wang Chengen out.

In the next few days, in addition to giving lectures to Chongzhen, Liu Fan took Xiaohe, Xiaozhu, and a few eunuchs sent by Chongzhen to experiment with distilled liquor in the Imperial Garden! Due to the poor distillation technology in ancient times, ancient liquor was generally only 10 to 20 degrees. It's similar to the rice wine of later generations! Li Shizhen of the Ming Dynasty simply recorded the production method of distilled liquor at that time, which can be considered to be a fermentation method similar to that of rice wine, but with the addition of a distillation process. The book records: "The method is to use strong wine and dregs to steam and make the gas up, and use a vessel to take the dew." All sour wine can be steamed. In recent times, only glutinous rice or japonica rice, or millet or rice or barley are steamed, and koji is brewed in an urn, seven days, steamed with retorts, it is as clear as water, the taste is very strong, and the wine is covered with dew. "In short, it is to ferment some of the ingredients commonly used in rice wine fermentation, ferment them in a wine urn for 7 days, and then distill them with a retort. To be honest, Liu Fan has basically forgotten about the method of distilling liquor, after all, he usually doesn't use it, and it is impossible for Liu Fan to pay attention to how to make wine! Liu Fan only remembered that the laboratory used alcohol lamps, test tubes or something, but where did the Ming Dynasty find these things!

In a pavilion in the Imperial Garden, Liu Fan was directing a few little eunuchs to pour wine into the vat he found, and next to him, Xiaozhu and Xiaohe were fiddling with some fruits and other food! Thanks to Liu Fan's advice! Chongzhen's attitude towards Liu Fan has obviously improved! Some irrelevant small requirements will basically meet Liu Fan! So now Liu Fan is proud of the spring equinox!

"Hey, hurry up, you guys! After pouring the wine, hurry up the heat! According to the laboratory method, Liu Fan designed a large vat, and then chiseled through the upper part and connected a bamboo tube, and covered it with a lid, and when it is heated, the water vapor condenses into water and flows into the bamboo tube along the special lid, and the lower part is connected with a lower wine tank! And so distilled repeatedly! You will get the wine that is necessary to be clean and pure! Although the power has not improved much! At least it looks a lot better!

Liu Fan is in full swing in the Imperial Garden! Wood is also needed for fire! The billowing smoke penetrated the sky, causing the eunuchs and palace maids who passed by from time to time to stop and watch! Some good things also went to report to the boss, so Chongzhen had to issue a ban to prevent the little eunuch from approaching Liu Fan's testing ground!

On this day, Liu Fan was busy in the Imperial Garden as usual, because he ate too much fruit at noon, he suddenly felt a burst of urgency, there was no toilet near the Imperial Garden, and the anxious Liu Fan hurriedly rushed to cover his head!

"Ahh Just listen to a coquettish cry! Liu Fan, who was anxious, didn't look at the road and accidentally bumped into someone.

"I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I didn't see it! Liu Fan rushed to the person and said apologetically

"It's fine!" A coquettish voice said

Hearing such a beautiful voice, Liu Fan couldn't help but look at the people who came, what kind of beauty is this! The person who came was wearing a yellow emerald smoke shirt, a pleated skirt with scattered flowers, water mist and green grass, if the shoulders were cut into a waist, and the skin was like a condensed gas. The eyes are full of spring water and clear waves, and a hollow golden hairpin is obliquely inserted in the bun on the head, decorated with a little purple jade, and the tassel is sprinkled on the green silk. The fragrant jade is tender and delicate, and the fingers are like cutting the root of the onion, such as containing Zhu Dan, and the smile is moving. Liu Fan's head exploded with a "boom"! Liu Fan asked himself that after the edification of Internet beauties in later generations, he can be regarded as having seen the world! But seeing this beauty almost forgot to breathe! So beautiful! This is the real classical beauty! The so-called star beauties in later generations cannot be compared! I saw Liu Fan looking like a pig brother! The beauty suddenly frowned! The voice is also cold! "Is there anything else? It's okay, please get out of the way! ”

"Oh! Oh! Liu Fan, who came back to his senses, quickly got out of the way! The beauty glanced at Liu Fan and walked over slowly! Looking at the back of the beauty, Liu Fan couldn't help but think that he didn't know which of Chongzhen's concubines this was, she was so beautiful! Chongzhen is really a beautiful blessing! That's not what we can imagine! Although the beauty is good, it is still a small life! The palace is too dangerous, Liu Fan doesn't dare to think about it!

What Liu Fan didn't know was that this was Zhang Yan, the Empress of Ci'an, whom he had always sighed for! Zhang Yan has been idle recently, and occasionally comes back to the Imperial Garden to relax, and is very curious to see Liu Fan's thick smoke soaring into the sky, and asks the palace maids around him to know that Liu Fan is experimenting with new wine-making methods in the Imperial Garden according to Chongzhen's orders! However, Zhang Yan, who was cold by nature, did not rush to watch! It's just that once in a while, I'll stop and take a few looks! Liu Fan, who was concentrating on the experiment, didn't notice that a big beauty was watching him!

After posting, Liu Fan ran to the toilet with a cigarette! Hurry up and finish the distilled spirits! Otherwise, you will always be trapped in the palace, what will you have to get ahead!
