After many days of hard work, with the help of the little eunuch, Liu Fan, who was anxious to get rid of the current predicament, happily took a jar of newly purified distilled liquor and ran to the Qianqing Palace to see Chongzhen!

"Your Majesty, this is the newly made distilled liquor of the grass people, you can try it." As he spoke, Liu Fan poured out a glass of wine and put it on the table! Immediately a little eunuch took it up and drank it all, and not only that, but poured another cup out of the jar and drank it again! Liu Fan was immediately dumbfounded! What a situation, what is this! And the wine grabbers? This eunuch is too bold!

Seeing Liu Fan's surprised expression, Chongzhen waved his hand and said with a smile, "The rules in the palace have always been like this, don't be surprised, sir!" The emperor has eunuchs to test the poison before eating, although I believe that the gentleman will not harm me! But don't mess with the rules! ”

Liu Fan then remembered that it seemed that the emperor was going to test poison before eating! In this way, wouldn't the emperor want to eat what was left over from the eunuchs! Thinking that Chongzhen had to eat something stained with eunuch saliva every day, Liu Fan had a chill! Looking at Chongzhen's gaze, he was also full of pity! Our emperor not only eats poorly, but also eats it! It's so pathetic! There is wood!

When the eunuch poured a new glass, Chongzhen took it and tasted it, "Well, the wine is mellow and the color is clear." It's a rare good wine! Aiqing did a good job! "Since the wine itself is purified by the royal wine, it is still good in terms of quality.

"Your Majesty, can you leave the matter of selling wine to the grass people? The grass people have a rough plan for selling wine these days! Leave it to me and promise to sell it for a big price! Liu Fan hurriedly said

"It's okay to leave it to the sir. But the capital is in turmoil, and I will send someone to protect Mr.! Chongzhen thought about it for a moment and said

There is no way to get out of the palace and be watched, isn't there still someone to protect you! Liu Fan reluctantly accepted!

"Your Majesty, this wine doesn't have a name yet, can you give it a name!?"

"Since it is a tribute wine brewed by the gentleman according to the methods of later generations! Then the name will be given by the gentleman."

"Yes! Your Majesty! Liu Fan couldn't think of a good name for a while, so he had no choice but to think of a few according to the famous wine of later generations! In order to avoid duplicate names, Chongzhen finally named "Wuliangye"!

The next day, Liu Fan told Chongzhen that he had moved the "processing factory" to an imperial village outside the capital! After instructing the eunuch craftsmen to increase production, they were accompanied by a few guards and wandered around the capital!

This time walking on the streets of Beijing City, the mood is very different from before, the last time the future is uncertain and eager to find a way out, and there is not much money on me, how can I be in the mood to wander around! It's like you can have a good tour today!

Feel free to walk on the streets of this Ming Jingshi. Looking up, the banners of the shops on both sides of the street are fluttering high, and the pedestrians are constantly flowing and the traffic is busy, which is a prosperous scene. Standing among the pedestrians, looking at the faces in front of and behind them, or old, or immature, or sophisticated, or generous, the picture scroll of the thousand-year-old imperial capital seems to condense the heaviness of time and space in front of Liu Fan. Liu Fan couldn't help but be intoxicated!

After a morning of shopping, Liu Fan had a general understanding of the price of wine in the capital, and the average restaurant and wine shop cost as little as a dozen wen and as much as one or two taels of silver. Famous wines from all over the world, such as rice wine from Shaoxing, Jiannanchun from Sichuan, and Fenjiu from Shanxi, are no more than two taels of silver.

Seeing that it was noon, Liu Fan suddenly remembered that Liu Gongzi, who had the same surname as the one who led him into the palace, had not yet visited, so he was so gracious that he had to pay a visit! First, to express gratitude, and second, to show your kindness. If you don't ignore it, Chongzhen knows that he has a poor character, will he have a bright future?

When I came to the door of Liu's house, I asked the porter to inform Liu Fan's visit! Soon Liu Neng greeted him warmly!

"In the morning, I saw the magpie on the branch to report the good news, it turned out to be Brother Liu's visit! Rare Guest! Come in! Liu Neng came up and enthusiastically led Liu Fan into the door

"Today coincides with the departure of His Majesty to the palace, and I should come to visit Liu's Mansion! I don't know if Grandpa Liu can be in the house? ”

"Father, I haven't come back from the palace yet! Brother Liu doesn't know? ”

"Huh! This palace is too big, and I don't know if I don't have anything to do with Duke Liu! ”

"Since Brother Liu is here, how can there be no gift not to entertain! Brother Liu is in the house today! ”

"Then respectful and indisobedient!"

After being full of wine and food, Liu Fan talked about what he was going to do today, and Liu Neng had to follow after hearing about it, so Liu Fan had no choice but to agree!

The relatively large restaurant in the capital is Piaoxiang Building! With the help of Liu Neng, Liu Fan invited a famous drunkard and gentleman in the capital at that time to hold a wine tasting meeting here! Let out a bold word, ten cups of non-drunk people can get a hundred taels of silver! For a while, good deeds gathered!

When Liu Fan came to the restaurant, the building was already full of friends, and there were no less than hundreds of people gathered. The hall in the building has been occupied by dozens of tables of eight immortals, and on the other side of the hall, there is a platform more than half a person high, which looks like the layout of a theater.

Standing on the platform of the restaurant, looking at the noisy crowd below! Liu Fan announced, "The wine tasting conference named "Wuliangye" by His Majesty! Start now! Serve! ”

The juniors hurriedly opened the wine jar to serve wine to the guests, and suddenly the aroma of wine filled the entire hall! The wine is poured into the glass, the color of the wine is clear, the aroma of the wine is fragrant, looking at such a fine wine, the guests of the good wine can't help but taste it! Unlike the current low-alcohol liquor, the sake distilled by modern methods has more than 30 degrees! The drinkers took a sip of the stomach, "Wuliangye" was like a fire from the throat, and those who were accustomed to drinking spirits couldn't help but applaud loudly, and those who were not used to drinking spirits covered their throats and coughed loudly, and for a time the coughing sound in the hall was endless.

"This wine is stronger, you can taste it in small sips, today's wine is provided by me, all free, everyone can drink as much as you want! If you think you can drink 10 cups, you can let Xiao Er record, and if you drink 10 cups within the specified time, you will have your own tattoo silver! If you don't think you can't, just taste it slowly!"

For a while, the guests who felt that they had a lot of alcohol shouted to Xiao Er to record! For the ancient people who had never drunk modern wine, how could they not get drunk after drinking so much high-quality wine in a short period of time, and in the end, only a few talented guests could successfully get the silver!

In the box, Liu Neng said to Liu Fan with admiration, "Brother Liu." It seems that this "Wuliangye" is going to be on fire! ”

"Thank you Jiechuan for your help! You wouldn't have succeeded so quickly without you! When the time comes, I will definitely tell Your Majesty the truth! ”

"Then thank you Brother Liu! Come and drink this cup with Brother Liu! ”

The party lasted until the evening, and the gentlemen who had nothing to do in the capital got drunk one after another, and finally had to be carried home by their families. Those small families who don't have a family entourage have to go home by themselves! Due to drinking too much, many people fell drunk on the side of the road before they got home, and the unexpected business of the doctor in the capital was much better!

After this incident, "Wuliangye" became famous in the capital! Wealthy families, princes and nobles have inquired about the origin of "Wuliangye"! In the end, I learned that it was only sold in a store in the capital that belonged to the name of the inner library! But the asking price is as high as 5 taels of silver for a small jar! Some people ask why the price is so high! The man replied, this is a tribute wine named by His Majesty himself, and there is only one in the world, can ordinary wine be compared? Where is this? The hardcover is more expensive for 20 taels, and there are 50 taels! Also available in limited quantities! Only 10 jars are sold per day! More than that! Such a high price has attracted the princes and nobles to buy it! Amazing
