When Tang Zhou came to the Song Mansion in Xishi, the sunset was just right. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

At this time, the Song Mansion has been completely demolished and renovated by craftsmen, and it looks like it should be almost completed in ten days.

After walking past the busy craftsmen, Tang Zhou went directly to the innermost, where Tang Zhou asked Song Xiaoyu to build a winery dedicated to winemaking.

The winery is a small courtyard, surrounded by bricks very high, as soon as Tang Zhou walked in, Song Xiaoyu took Yin Si out of it, and Yin Si seemed to be showing off, pointed to the shed in the corner of the courtyard and said: "Little Hou Ye, you let us buy all the wine, that Pang Long really gave Xiao Hou Ye face, the price is very cheap, ......."

Yin Si wanted to say more, but was kicked away by Song Xiaoyu.

"While going, the little marquis finally came here, did you listen to your chatter?" Song Xiaoyu rolled his eyes, then looked at Tang Zhou and said, "Little Hou Ye, now that the wine has been bought, and the equipment you asked me to get has been made according to the drawings, what should I do now?" ”

When Tang Zhou heard Song Xiaoyu's words, he was a little surprised, and said, "That equipment is used to steam wine, have you made it?" ”

Song Xiaoyu was slightly stunned, as if she didn't understand what steamed wine was, but she still nodded: "Okay, it's just that the wine has already been brewed, what else is steaming?" ”

Tang Zhou smiled lightly: "The purity of the brewed wine is not enough, but if we distill it, we can distill the purity wine, such a wine is very strong, a few glasses can be intoxicating, of course, I do not advocate drinking more of this high-concentration wine, but some of the dishes we make in the future may need such liquor, so I think it is better to distill some, and a lot of cooking wine or something also needs liquor to be exchanged." ”

Although he didn't understand very well, Song Xiaoyu still sighed and asked, "Do you need to steam it now?" ”

Tang Zhou nodded: "After I finish checking the equipment and there is no problem, I can put it in, but when steaming wine, outsiders are not allowed to enter this small winery, so as not to be discovered by others." ”

Tang Zhou is still very clear about the value of this set of equipment, he doesn't want to make money by making liquor, but he doesn't want to be stolen by others, anything has its value, and if you are in your own hands, you can have more initiative.

Song Xiaoyu nodded, and then led Tang Zhou into the house, and after Tang Zhou's inspection, he found that there was no problem, so he agreed to steam the wine.

--------------------------------

Time flies quickly, the spring examination begins in a blink of an eye, during the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, the imperial examination has only been implemented for decades, so it does not take several days like in later generations, and the physical strength and will of the candidates are a test.

And in these two days, Chang'an City is very lively, every day after the exam, there are some new poems come out, among these poems, naturally there are good, so the whole Chang'an City is passed on.

In these days, Tang Zhou didn't care much about these things, except for going to the Song Mansion to supervise the steaming of wine, he went to Cuiming Mansion to see how the cooking skills of the cooks recruited by Liu Ziyi were, and how well the apprentices mastered some basic dishes.

In this way, by the end of the spring test, the construction of the inn on the land of the Song Mansion had come to an end, and it would be enough to decorate it according to Tang Zhou's requirements, and the liquor in the winery had already brewed more than a dozen jars.

On the afternoon of the end of the spring examination, when Tang Zhou was making the menu needed by the inn at home, Cheng Chumo and Duan Jue, who had participated in the imperial examination, suddenly pulled him out.

"The brothers have finished the exam today, so we should celebrate it."

"Yes, although the imperial examination this year uses a vague name system, we don't need to be vague in the second instance, and there is no problem in seeking an official position in the court."

Duan Jue and Cheng Chumo both said so, Tang Zhou looked at the two of them and smiled bitterly, although Duan Ju was a little cowardly, but his knowledge was obvious to all, there was no problem for him in the first trial, plus the relationship between his father Duan Zhixuan and Li Tai, the king of Wei, there was no problem at all for him to find a position in the court, but Cheng Chumo is such a big and coarse, I am afraid that the first trial will be sad, he will be coaxed like this, and when the results come out, he will have to cry.

But although he thought so in his heart, Tang Zhou was not stupid enough to say these words, and he saw that these people were very interested, and he couldn't refuse, so he just asked: "Should you celebrate, but how many people want to go there to celebrate?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, yes, they should go there to celebrate, originally, pulling Tang Zhou up, there was a meaning of letting him show his hand, but if you go to the inn, it is really unreasonable to let Tang Zhou cook.

Everyone glanced at each other, and finally Cheng Chu said silently: "Go to my house, my chef can cook a lot of dishes, and Brother Tang only needs to cook one or two dishes at that time." ”

Seeing that Cheng Chumo was so enthusiastic, everyone nodded in agreement, and Tang Zhou thought of the freshly brewed liquor, so he hurriedly instructed his follower Xia Fan to hurry up and go to the West Market with a jar of wine to Cheng's mansion.

Cheng Chumo and the others didn't care about Tang Zhou's instructions, and Cheng Chumo also quipped: "What wine do you bring with you to my house, what good wine does my family have, Guanzhong wine, Western Regions wine, everything." ”

Tang Zhou smiled without saying a word, bowed his hand slightly, and walked towards Cheng Mansion with everyone.

Entering Cheng's Mansion, Cheng Yanjin immediately agreed when he heard that his son was going to celebrate with a few companions, and looking at his giggling appearance, he seemed to be very confident that his son would be able to win the first place this time.

Tang Zhou saw him like this, and couldn't help but wonder, where did Cheng Biting Jin's confidence come from, the so-called knowing son is not as good as his father, Cheng Biting Jin should know very well how many catties and taels his son has, and he wants him to go to war and think, and wants him to write an article about governing the country, which is his strength?

But Cheng Biting Jin seems to have such confidence.

And just when Tang Zhou was thinking like this, Cheng Yanjin suddenly slapped Tang Zhou's little shoulder and asked, "I heard that the Tang family kid is going to cook, I don't know what kind of dish you want to cook today?" ”

Tang Zhou was slapped by Cheng Biting Jin very painfully, but it was not easy to show it, so he owed a slight owe and said, "Let's make Taoist stewed carp." ”

As soon as he heard that it was just a home-cooked carp stew, Cheng Yanjin suddenly frowned: "I said Tang family boy, you are too unkind today, my chef can cook home-cooked carp, no, my son can do it, such ordinary dishes still need a chef like you to cook?" ”

These words have the meaning of praising Tang Zhou, but it is not very good, Tang Zhou smiled bitterly: "What I do is different, and I keep it to everyone's satisfaction." ”
