Chapter 218: Winemaking

Liu Yuqing was sitting crookedly on the chair, and when he heard this, his heart suddenly burst: "Why? ”

"Mother asked me to get you a position in the county." Chen Pingdao with a smile in his eyes.

"No wonder when Fang just came in, my sister's eyes were strange, it turned out to be here. No, this place can't be long, I have to go outside and hide. Liu Yuqing stood up, "Go to the county, isn't your inn a place to stay?" I also paid the money, so I was allowed to stay there for a few days. ”

"Can you still stay there and not come back?" Chen Ping shook his head, "It's not a way to avoid seeing you, I have a trick here, do you want to listen to it?" ”

Liu Yuqing looked at Chen Ping like a savior, and said eagerly: "What way?" ”

The twelve-year-old county order, listening to Zhou Yu from the post office, said that Fang took office and rectified the officials in the county government, except for dissidents, his nephew is really a genius.

"Uncle, you should know about the fire sickle, it is my family property, but it has been used a lot recently, and there is a shortage of manpower, I think I want to find some more people to make the fire sickle together." Zhou Niang was not the only one in the village, but a few more women followed one after another, taking over the work of toothbrush processing, and doing some fire sickle processing.

Contracts were signed, but even then, there were not enough people, and the work was messy.

"How could I not know about the fire sickle? But your fire is the most impressive, just a light blow, you can start a fire, it is indeed convenient. Liu Yuqing sighed and said, "Do you want me to help you find someone in the village?" This is inevitably too simple, you are now the county order, as long as you post a notice, or let the township chief announce it in the village, it is more convenient than me looking for someone. I see that you should give me some money, and I will also open an inn, like you. ”

"Don't worry, I'm not going to be the diner who robbed you. I'm going to open an inn in Jiangdu, tsk......" Liu Yuqing seemed to think of something, smacked his mouth, and winked at Chen Ping mysteriously, "The emperor wants to go down to Jiangdu, and there must be a lot of people in his entourage, and those are all nobles and money." As long as you open an inn in Jiangdu, there will definitely be no shortage of diners, so how much money do you have to earn? ”

"Uncle, you are the same as I thought, and I also want to open an inn in Jiangdu." Chen said quietly.

Liu Yuqing was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then jumped up and said hurriedly: "This is my proposal, you can't rob my uncle, right?" ”

"This is not your proposal, in fact, I have already sent someone to Jiangdu, the location has been chosen, the deed has also been taken, and in another month, the inn will be completed." People have indeed been sent to Jiangdu a long time ago, and the preliminary conditions for the deed are ready, just wait for Zhao Gong to finish the work in hand, and the inn in Jiangdu will be able to start breaking ground, and it will definitely be able to open the door to receive diners at the end of the leap month, Chen Ping did not tell Liu Yuqing, "If you want to open an inn in Jiangdu, I am afraid it will not be possible." ”

"Then I'll go to Jingshi." Liu Yuqing said, glancing at Chen Ping, "Shouldn't you have bought a property in Jingshi, bought a house deed, and are ready to open an inn?" ”

Jiangdu, Jingshi, Luoyang. In these three places, crowds gather, rich households are concentrated, and they are also places where powerful people compete to buy property and settle down, Liu Yuqing's vision is good.

"Not yet." After saying that, Chen Ping saw Liu Yuqing smug and continued, "But do you have that much money to buy the house deed?" ”

"No, but don't you have money? Lend me some. Liu Yuqing said, "You don't want to borrow, do you?" ”

"How can it be, the gentleman's inn can be completed, which also has the credit of your uncle, if it were not for your forty taels of silver, the inn would still be ruined now." Chen Ping shook his head, relieved for a while, sighed, and said helplessly, "But I don't have any money in my hand, even if I want to borrow some money from my uncle, I am powerless." ”

"And where do you spend your money?" Liu Yuqing asked, "The inn, the fire sickle, and the brick kiln, these three places can make money, and I haven't counted the toothbrush." ”

"I'm going to buy a plot of land near Baitu Village and build a small factory to process fire sickles, fire folds and toothbrushes." Chen Ping said his idea, "Hire some helpers, mass production, both men and women." ”

At this time, there is no big defense between men and women, and it is common for women to go out to work, or to ride horses and drive donkeys.

With this convenient condition, Chen Ping is unwilling to let go, this is all labor, and it also saves the tongue of persuasion.

"It's just to build a thatched hut, and the amount of money is limited." Liu Yuqing said suspiciously, "Besides, now that you have a brick kiln and an inn, do you still want that fire sickle?" The fire sickle is simple, there are already imitations in the county, and it is cheaper than your price. ”

For these, Liu Yuqing is a clear door, and he is not a consultant in everything he does when he plays on weekdays. The reason why people feel idle is that they haven't found something of interest, and the family is a landlord class and is in a good situation, so it is inevitable that some people have low eyes and skills, and they don't bother to do ordinary work.

Farming, or helping with others, these two things can be regarded as disdain in Liu Yuqing's eyes.

"No matter how small a mosquito is, it's meat." Chen Ping said a word, and let Liu Yuqing slowly pay attention to it, "As for the price, there is no need to rush now, the purchasing power of Liuhe County tends to be saturated, so the store will compete for customers by reducing prices." But there are many counties in Dasui Prefecture, and the fire sickle is not necessarily to be sold in Liuhe County. ”

Purchasing power, saturation, are two new terms, Liu Yuqing came back to his senses from the fact that no matter how small the mosquito is, he guessed the meaning, and listened to these two words, and his head was confused again.

Chen Ping paused for a moment, his face returned to seriousness, and he said in a low voice: "Besides, I don't just plan to sell fire sickles, fire sickles and toothbrushes. Now that the four are peaceful, there is no prohibition on alcohol in the court, and I plan to collect grain and make wine. ”

The process of liquor is not complicated, and the raw materials are diverse, such as millet, millet and millet can all be used to make liquor. And wine, from the princes and nobles to the common people, has a demand, as long as it is brewed, it can be sold.

At this time, most of the rice wine and wine on the market are fermented wines, and the alcohol content is not high. From the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, wine was the best wine, but it is a pity that after the Tang Dynasty, wine did not continue to develop.

As for the distilled liquor made by using the different boiling points of alcohol and water, it can be traced back to the Northern Wei Dynasty, and the liquor made by Liu Baizhuo in Hedong seems to be similar to liquor.

The fragrance of drinking is beautiful and drunk, and the menstrual months do not wake up. In "Luoyang Jialan", at the same time, there is a sentence that is not afraid of drawing a bow and drawing a knife, but is afraid of white falling spring mash.

Although the description is exaggerated, the wine should be stronger than rice wine and wine.

It's a pity that whether it's true or not, this kind of white pendant wine Chen Ping has not been seen in Liuhe County, and in Jiangdu and other places, Chen Ping has also asked Liu Zumao, and there is no wine that makes people drunk for several days. Thinking about it carefully, Liu Baizhuo may really have made a high-concentration white pendant wine, but the law is not spread, and most of this skill is brought into the grave.

This is where it can be used, Chen Ping intends to make liquor, using distillation technology, although he personally does not like to drink, it does not prevent Chen Ping from using it to earn money.

Seeing that Chen Ping was so generous, Liu Yuqing's idea of borrowing money had not dissipated, and he continued: "It's okay, I can wait, and when the **** has the money, I will borrow it from me." ”

"Uncle." Chen Ping leaned forward and shouted, Liu Yuqing seemed to continue to say, "I want you to help me manage the factory winery." ”

"Why?" Liu Yuqing was startled, and shook his head hurriedly, "I can't do this." (To be continued.) )
