Chapter 61: Let's go to the green house
PS: I'm so sorry, there was a power outage yesterday, and now the call comes in the middle of the night, hurry up and get up for a more chapter.
In fact, distilled liquor has been available in the early years of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but its process is still too rough to brew a higher number of liquors.
Someone once used some ancient distillation utensils unearthed to try to make wine according to the methods of ancient people, and the highest alcohol content of the brewed wine was between 20 and 26 degrees, and the success rate was still very low, and one of the ten brewing times, one of the alcohol content reached more than 20 degrees, which was very good. Therefore, it is difficult to buy alcohol above 20 degrees on the market, and most of them are alcohol with more than 10 degrees.
In ancient times, people made distilled spirits, one is that their utensils are too rough, the process is not mature, the main thing is that the people in ancient times did not have a concept of temperature measurement, they did not know what the melting point of water and alcohol was.
Coincidentally, there is an introduction to this in the encyclopedia of solar mobile phones, and it is even more coincidental that solar mobile phones come with thermometers, hydraulic meters and other functions, with these bugs, Liu Yi does not know how to use it is a real SB. The solar mobile phone also comes with a hydraulic meter, which also makes Liu Yi's heart happy, since the hydraulic pressure can be measured, then it means that this solar mobile phone can also be waterproof, so Liu Yi does not have to worry about the mobile phone will be wet and damaged by breaking the circuit on the body.
In the process of making distilled liquor, the raw grain and rice are poured with water, steamed, cooled, and the koji mixture is added, and water is added to the tank, and then fermented and distilled.
In the previous steps, Liu Yi asked the volunteers to do it, and all he had to do was to drum up a relatively precise still, and wait until the raw materials were fermented, and then the distillation step would be done by himself.
When the volunteers went to buy food and utensils, Liu Yi also asked them to buy back hundreds of jars of wine, which Liu Yi used for refining alcohol tests. The whole process takes at least ten days and a half months, and it is now a cold winter, and there is very little sunlight, so the steps of spreading the cold and drying are a bit troublesome. Therefore, it is better to use the BUG of the solar mobile phone to refine the alcohol, and then mix the alcohol into the wine, so that you can make a batch of high-alcohol wine faster.
In order to make it easier to control the temperature, Liu Yi used a large pot to hold the sealed still, and relied on boiling water to transfer heat to the still, so that when it was overheated, there was no need to turn off the fire, as long as some cold water was added into the pot to control the temperature.
At the top of the still, there is a conduit that exports the distilled gas, which directs the gas to another sealed dissolver placed in cold water, so that the gas can be quickly cooled from the distiller. Liu Yi believes that as long as the temperature in the distiller is controlled within the melting point of alcohol, then after the distilled gas is cooled, it should be high-purity alcohol.
On this day, the mellow aroma of wine can be smelled everywhere in the entire house, which attracted all the volunteers to drink and insects, especially the drama Zhicai who wrote an advertisement for Liu Yi to open a medical hall in the front yard, he didn't know how many times he was attracted by the aroma of wine, and frequently went to the place where Liu Yi tried to practice alcohol, but every time he was stopped by the volunteers and failed to break into the secret room where Liu Yi practiced alcohol. Because he had to take out a solar-powered phone to measure the temperature, how could Leo let others see what he was doing?
In the evening, Liu Yi successfully refined more than a jar of pure alcohol, and when he came out, his whole body was filled with the smell of alcohol.
To refine a jar of alcohol, dozens of jars of wine were used. According to the market price, a jar of good wine almost costs money, and dozens of jars are equivalent to dozens of taels of silver, and the cost is quite expensive. In this way, the cost of a jar of alcohol is tens of taels of silver, and a jar of alcohol is estimated to be divided into a hundred small cups, which can be blended with a hundred jars of wine of more than 50 degrees. However, Liu Yi is confident that the wine he has blended will be sold for at least 10 taels of silver per jar.
How to operate the sale of wine was not discussed in advance, Liu Yi did not forget that he was going to go to the Qinglou with Gao Shun at night to ransom him. Therefore, after leaving the secret room, he hid a jar of alcohol in the attic, and ordered the volunteers at home to guard it strictly, and then clean it before coming out to eat with everyone.
During the banquet, Xi Zhicai's curiosity was aroused, and he kept asking Liu Yi what he was doing, bought so much wine and came back, making the room full of wine, and he didn't take some wine out to satisfy everyone's hunger.
In fact, Xi Zhicai has already drunk a full jar of high-quality wine bought today, and Liu Yi is naturally too lazy to care about him, and he doesn't plan to take out the wine blended with alcohol for him to taste right now. Liu Yi knows that this drama is talented, uninhibited, uninhibited, and especially good at the things in the cup, if you let him know now that he has made a wine that is ten times better than the wine he bought on the market now, and he is not entangled in drinking a pleasure? Even if you don't give him a drink, I'm afraid that when you're not there, this guy may secretly make some small moves and may steal his own wine. ,
For people who are good at wine, the temptation of fine wine is too great, and it is precisely because Liu Yi knows the temptation of fine wine to others, so he is very confident that he can get a lot of money in Luoyang with the high quality wine he makes.
"Huang Zheng, Brother Wuyang, let's go to visit the Qinglou in Luoyang tonight." After Liu Yi had eaten a full meal, he said to the volunteers.
"Ha, Brother Liu is okay with this?" When Huang Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but smile with his eyebrows.
Although Huang Zheng was born with a dignified appearance, Yan SΓΉ did have a bit of a big guy style, but he and Wu Yang are both gangsters, and they usually like to talk about some obscene affairs, and they often use these things to make fun of others. Now that Liu Yi said that he was going to Qinglou, he still didn't run on it?
"you, don't tell me that you haven't visited the Qinglou in the past few days, I gave you twenty taels of silver before and after, don't tell me that you lost it to the girl in the Qinglou in the blink of an eye." Liu Yi nudged a volunteer beside him.
Liu Yi is used to messing with them, and when it is time to laugh with them, Liu Yi will also laugh with everyone, which can increase everyone's sense of intimacy.
"Brother Gao Shun, do you feel a lot better today? It shouldn't be a big problem to walk, go and change into the clothes that the volunteer brothers bought for you, dress up, you are the protagonist tonight, wait for my sister-in-law to bring it back, take advantage of the Spring Festival celebration, and do your happy event, haha......" Liu Yi turned to pat Gao Shun, who was full of food and put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said with a smile on Gao Shun, who was a little shy.
"Ah, no, it's not like that......"
"Okay, okay, there's no need to argue with our brother, we'll wait for you outside." Liu Yi couldn't say anything about pulling Gao Shun up with an embarrassed face and pushing him into the backyard.
Xi Zhicai asked Liu Yidao puzzled: "Hey, what Qinglou or something?" Leu: Do you want to visit the Qinglou? β
"It's not me, it's Brother Gao Shun who has fallen in love with a girl in Qinglou, let's go and redeem her tonight, we can't redeem her, let's rob her back to Brother Gao Shun, brothers who want to go, go and dress up, maybe there is a girl who has taken a fancy to you, and also redeem her as a daughter-in-law, I Liu Yi will pay for you." Haha......" Liu Yi looked at Gao Shun, who ran away as if he was running away, and smiled.
"Huh? Then, I'll go, and you wait for me. Xi Zhicai's eyes lit up, and he jumped up and ran inside.
After a while, more than a dozen volunteers, plus Gao Shun and Xi Zhicai, rushed to the Qinglou in a mighty manner.
Of course, everyone knows that Liu Yi is joking when he said that he went to the Qinglou to redeem Miss and come back to be a daughter-in-law, the Qinglou woman, where do ordinary people dare to redeem her as a daughter-in-law? After getting married, I don't know how much I have to give people, even if I can't get together a daughter-in-law, I don't dare to marry a Qinglou woman lightly. The volunteers followed, just to act as Liu Yi's personal soldiers and protect Liu Yi.
Liu Yi called Huang Zheng and Wu Yang, and because they had been stepping on Luoyang City for the past few days, they already had a certain understanding of Luoyang City, so they called them so that they could do a little bit.
