ps: 5,000 words chapter, I wish you all a good time!

After a while, Li Ke and the others came here while walking and talking, and Li Su hurriedly greeted him, after all, it was either an elder or a brother who came, and he didn't dare to take any shelf.

"Little nephew Li Su, see uncle and imperial brother!" Li Su stepped forward to give a salute, in addition to Li Xiaogong, Li Daozong, Li Su and Li Yong, there were also Li Xiaojie and Li Jingheng who I saw at the last banquet, the little fat man Li Jingheng is estimated to have come with his father Li Daozong, but Li Xiaojie, who has a mustache, is a little surprised.

"The imperial nephew doesn't need to be polite, your name is full of Chang'an these days, and several of your cousins are clamoring to meet you, a great talent!" Li Xiaogong smiled and helped Li Su up, and even opened his game Chapter 17 Brewing Workshop and laughing drunk.

"Hehe, my uncle has won the award, and my little nephew just wrote a few crooked poems, where is his talent?" Li Su smiled and said modestly, while looking at the king of Hejian who was the first in the royal family's military merits.

Li Xiaogong looks to be in his forties, thin and tall, with an ancient appearance, with three long beards, he looks very personable, and he can't see that he was once a commanding general, but like a scribe with a scripture in his hand, but unfortunately Li Yong, this kid did not inherit the slightest demeanor of his father, and he looked no different from the old boy of later generations.

"Hahaha~, Liulang, don't be modest, if you write crooked poems, then the scholars of Chang'an don't dare to write poems anymore, compared to you, your bastard cousin is really useless!" Li Daozong, the king of Jiangxia, pointed to his son Li Jingheng as he spoke, causing everyone to laugh, and Li Jingheng laughed with embarrassment.

This Jiangxia King's personality seems to be very cheerful, just the opposite of Li Xiaogong's thinness, he belongs to the kind of wide body and fat, and his round fat face is full of kindness, which makes people feel close at a glance, which Li Jingheng completely inherits from his father. Counting it, this Jiangxia king mixed really well in the Tang Dynasty, especially the seventeenth chapter of the brewing workshop and drunkenness won the trust of Li Shimin, even if he was dismissed because of corruption and bribery, he was soon used again, if he didn't offend the eldest grandson Wuji and Chu Suiliang later, and died on the way to distribution, it is estimated that he would have lived longer.

"That's it, who doesn't know the name of Liulang now, there are a lot of familiar scholars in my house who have asked to see me these days, just to let me introduce you on my behalf and come to visit you, a talented man who is famous in Chang'an!" Li Xiaojie, the king of Qinghe, also opened his mouth and said, for such a talented man in the clan, they are also very face-saving in the clan, so their attitudes are very consistent, after all, Li Su is famous and they have no conflict of interest.

"Hehe, my uncle praised it!" Li Su said with a smile, the atmosphere at the beginning was good, very harmonious, "I invite a few uncles and royal brothers to come today, mainly because I have made a new wine in my house, I want you to taste it!" ”

"Wine?" Li Xiaogong and the others all frowned, the purpose of their coming here today was all for the business that Li Su said was to make a fortune, not to drink any new wine.

"Liulang, you ......" Li Ke is also in a hurry, he doesn't care about business or anything, what he is afraid of is that Li Su has offended these imperial uncles, among them, Li Xiaojie is just a noble prince, but Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong are different, for example, Li Daozong also pacified Tuyuhun with Li Jing last year, and he has real power in his hands, and although Li Xiaogong retired because of his previous military exploits, his prestige and potential strength should not be underestimated, these two people are not easily offended by Li Su.

"Hehe, third brother, you don't have to worry, if you have anything to say, let's talk about it after drinking!" Li Ke interrupted Li Ke's words, and then waved to the craftsman and said, "Raise the fire!" As soon as he gave the order, someone immediately lit the firewood under the pot. The work before distillation is ready, and it is time to raise the fire to distill. Li Xiaogong and others watched it inexplicably, and they didn't know what Li Su was doing.

After a short time when the fire was raised, the lees in the pot gradually warmed up, and the alcohol in it was heated and turned into gas, and then condensed into a liquid when it met the cold lid, and dripped down the tip of the awl into the copper spoon. Soon, a thin stream of liquor flowed out of the brass pipes on the walls of the barrel and was caught by the sprinkler jar that had been prepared long ago.

"Hmm~, what a fragrant wine!" With the flow of wine, a rich aroma of wine spread in the workshop, Li Yong, who was extremely good at wine, sniffled, and couldn't help but pick up a spoon and pour some wine into his mouth.

"Holy, shut up! Do you want to die? The frightened Li Su slapped the spoon off, and now what comes out is the head of the wine, although the taste is very fragrant, but it must not be drunk directly, because the formaldehyde content in it is extremely high, and drinking too much will kill people.

"Liuxiao, isn't it just a little wine, as for scaring you like this?" Li Yong said very dissatisfied.

"What do you know, this is called the head of wine that began to come out, it is poisonous, you will feel uncomfortable when you drink a little, and it will definitely kill you if you overdose, only if you store it for a period of time, let the poison in it come out, and then you can mix it with the wine." Li Xuan said angrily.

"There is such a miracle?" Li Xiaogong asked with a look of surprise, "But the taste of this wine is so fragrant, I can't help but want to drink it." Li Xiaogong is also greedy, he and Li Yong are worthy of being father and son, a pair of drunkards who don't want to die.

After receiving about a pound of wine, immediately change the jar, and what comes out at this time is the heart of the wine, which can be drunk directly. Until the final liquor tastes lighter, and then change the jar, then the tail comes out, and when the next distillation, the tail can be added to the distillation again.

"Come on! How about you try this wine? Li Su held the jar where the wine was placed, took a deep breath of wine, and then said. None of the people present were not good at drinking, especially Li Xiaogong and his son, who were the first to rush up, poured a bowl and couldn't wait to send it to their mouths. As a result, as soon as the wine was in his mouth, he was immediately flushed with high concentration of alcohol and wanted to vomit, but he was reluctant to give up such a delicious wine, and his face turned red for a while, and it took a long time to ease up, and he swallowed the wine in his mouth into his stomach with a 'goo'dong'.

"Whew~, what a strong wine!" Li Xiaogong let out a sigh of relief and praised loudly.

"Good wine! One more bowl! Li Yong, this kid is a drunken maniac, he drank all the wine in the bowl in a few sips, and poured another bowl without enjoyment, Li Daozong and others next to him looked at it, and it was estimated that they couldn't drink anything if they didn't act, so they rushed up and grabbed it.

With the lesson of Li Xiaogong's father and son, they did not dare to drink in a big gulp, but tasted in small sips, and after getting used to the intensity of the wine, they let go of the courage to drink, and after a while, the wine in the jar let them drink most of it.

"Huh~, six...... Liuyang, this wine is so good, just ...... It's just too strong! Hehe~" Li Yong was drunk with his tongue wide, and fell to the ground after speaking, just now he counted the most drunk, this wine is so strong, the amount of alcohol has never been very good, he can no longer hold on to getting drunk and falls to the ground.

"Hahaha~, this bastard boy!" Li Xiaogong laughed and kicked his son, "Come on, carry him down!" It's a shame that you dare to drink such strong wine without drinking! ”

"Good wine! Wine! After drinking this kind of good wine, it will become light and tasteless when you drink other wines in the future, if you do it well, how can you earn millions a year? Even tens of millions are possible. Li Daozong, who has always been the most sensitive to money, also understood at this time, it turned out that the business Li Su said was this wine, if he hadn't tasted it himself, he would never believe that there was such a good wine in the world?

"Liuyang, how is the yield of this wine?" Li Xiaojie and Li Su often mix together, and they are very direct when they speak.

"The output of the same grain is estimated to be only one-third of what it used to be, but as long as the raw materials are sufficient, it is almost as much as it wants." Li Yu estimated for a moment before he spoke, if it is not distilled, the degree of the wine is only a dozen degrees at most, and after distillation, the degree will increase by at least three times, plus the loss in the distillation process, it would be good to have one-third of the previous output, which is still the result of the distillation of the distiller's lees The yield of the wine has increased a lot.

"Good! In this way, it is indeed a big business, how are you going to distribute the shares? Li Daozong was already carried away by the wonderful 'money' scene of distilled liquor, and asked impatiently, he was eager to put this liquor on the market now, and then exchange it for heavy copper coins. Everyone else listened quietly, after all, it was in their future interests.

"Hehe, little nephew, I am a poor prince, and now the government still owes a lot of foreign debts, so this time I can only use technology as a shareholder, at least 20% of the shares, as for the rest, it is still up to the three imperial uncles and the imperial brothers to discuss!" Li Su played a trick, anyway, the technology is in his hands, and he has 20% of the shares, as for how to divide the rest, he doesn't care, after all, more and less will offend people.

"Hahaha~, everyone says that Liuyang has become an amazing writer after losing his memory, and the old man didn't see your literary talent today, but he saw your slippery head first!" After listening to Li Su's words, Li Xiaogong joked with a smile. Several other people also understood Li Su's thoughts, and they also laughed together.

Next, Li Daozong took the lead, and the four princes began to distribute their respective shares according to the amount of funds or goods they contributed. Don't look at these are all princes, but when it comes to their own interests, they are no different from ordinary businessmen, even Li Ke is no exception, the quarrel is in the end, even Li Ke was dragged into the water by them, and the noisy quarrel was finally settled.

The redivided shares are 30% by Li Daozong, 20% by Li Xiaogong, Li Ke and Li Xiaojie are the weakest, each accounting for 10% and a half, and Li Su accounts for 20% unchanged, but in addition to providing technology, he also has to provide free production and post-maintenance of the still.

The five people contributed a total of about 300,000 yuan, which is equivalent to one percent of the total financial income during the Zhenguan period, which is also a huge amount of money for several royal palaces. And Li Xiaogong has a large area of wasteland on the edge of Chang'an City, which can just be used to build a wine-making workshop, and the craftsmen in the workshop are from various palaces, and if they are not enough, they will buy from Sinong Temple.

The core of the brewery is the distillation workshop, and the plan is to separate the distillation workshop, which is composed of the henchmen and craftsmen of each prefecture, and no one is allowed to approach without the joint consent of the five of them, otherwise they will all be executed. After all, the craftsmen here are all official slaves, and life and death are in the hands of these few people, as a modern person, Li Su is very uncomfortable with this kind of slave system, but he is also self-aware and knows that this is not something he can change. Moreover, this system is also very beneficial to him now, at least to ensure that the secrets of distilled spirits are not spread, so he has no intention of changing it for the time being.

"Come, come, come! The younger brother thanks the two royal brothers for taking care of them, but in the future, if there is a sending, the younger brother will definitely die in pieces. After the matter of the brewing workshop was finalized, Li Su immediately prepared wine and food to entertain everyone, and during the banquet, Li Xiaojie toasted Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong again and again. Li Su inquired about Li Ke privately, and it turned out that the reason why Li Xiaojie came with them was thanks to the help of Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong.

Li Xiaojie's father is Li Shentong, the king of Huai'an, and when he was alive, he was also an old general with outstanding military achievements, and he made a lot of contributions to the Tang Dynasty, and his seven sons were all crowned kings, which shows Li Yuan's affirmation of the old man's contributions at that time. The old man and Li Yuan are cousins, older than Li Xiaogong and others, Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong were young when they were young, they were taken care of by the old man in the army, and they were very grateful to the old man.

To say that Li Xiaojie's eleven brothers have seven princes, they can be regarded as prominent, and the others are all doing well, either the prince or the prince, although they have no talent, but they all live their aristocratic lives peacefully. But Li Xiaojie is an unconscious master, eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling are everything, and he doesn't have any money to make a living in his house, just relying on his little money is not enough, and in a few years, he will eat up the old bottom left to him by King Huai'an. Now Li Xiaojie is actually worse than Li Su, there are only a few people left in the huge Qinghe Palace, and the others are sent out of the house because they can't afford to raise them, and the prominent Princess Qinghe has only one maid to serve with her, and even when she gives birth to a daughter, she has to go back to her mother's house to raise her body, which can be said to be extremely embarrassing.

But even if it was mixed up to such a point, Li Xiaojie still did not change, and his ten brothers often helped him at first, but later found that he was really unable to fill this bottomless pit, and slowly avoided him. Later, almost all of his contemporaries were reluctant to deal with him, and he had already offended people by not repaying his debts, and he could only eat and drink with Li Su and his juniors all day long.

This time, Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong couldn't stand it anymore, and were about to help him, just in time for Li Su to say that there was a big business to do, so they called Li Xiaojie over, and his share of five shares was lent to him by the two of them. Although Li Xiaojie is a bastard, he is still very grateful for the help of Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong, and he has been toasting the two of them at the wine table.

The wine is a newly brewed spirit, and most of the dishes are brought by Li Su from later generations, and at the strong request of Li Ke, last night's called flower chicken was the main dish this time, the color was golden and orange, the meat was tender and soft, and the fragrance was rich.

"Liulang, this wine is good, but it's too strong, and the spicy smell is too heavy, I'm afraid some people can't get used to it?" Li Daozong drank all the wine in the cup, and said with a flushed face, "But it's suitable for us who are rough people in the army, and the spicy wine goes straight to the chest in one sip, which is very enjoyable!" ”

"Hahaha~, uncle, rest assured, this wine is not afraid of deterioration when stored, as long as it is put for a period of time, most of the spicy gas in the new wine will be dissipated, and the wine will become very mellow, and the longer it is stored, the more fragrant this wine will be, if the two uncles have the patience to wait for decades, it will definitely become an immortal wine that even the gods will hook down!" Li Yu burped and said, although he doesn't like to drink, but the people sitting here today are all elders, and the two peers are still older than him, and Li Yong, the only one younger than him, is not awake yet, so no matter who toasts, he has to drink, and now he is a little drunk.

"Hahahaha~, you stinky boy dare to make fun of the old man, Daozong and I are both dozens of years old, where are there decades to wait, but you stinky boys have a chance to taste that immortal brew!" Li Xiaogong laughed loudly, and did not care about life and death in his tone. The half-drunk King of Hejian showed his true colors as a general at this time, and his pride and open-mindedness were undoubtedly revealed.

"When you sing about wine, life is ......" Li Xiaogong drank the rise, lifted the wine pot and sang Cao Cao's "Short Song Xing" loudly, the sound was as impassioned as gold and jade, faintly revealing the killing atmosphere on the battlefield, which made people listen to the blood boiling.

"People...... Life is too short to be happy, so ...... With such good wine and food, wouldn't it be a happy life if you could invite a group of friends to drink and sing? Li Xiaojie also drank too much and stammered nonsense.

"Woo~! Good idea! I don't know what Li Daozong is crazy about, so he suddenly slapped the table and stood up and said loudly. Li Xiaojie, who was sitting next to him, was frightened, and most of the wine had woken up, while Li Ke, who was already top-heavy on the other side, slipped directly under the table, and after a while, the sound of snoring sounded.

"Daozong, your amount of alcohol is not good, you are already drunk after just such a little wine?" Li Xiaogong said with a smile.

"Brother Wang, I'm not drunk, but the words of filial piety reminded me." Li Daozong shook off Li Jingheng, who was helping him with a drunken fist, stroked his beard and smiled, "Since we have made such a new wine, why don't we invite relatives and friends to taste this wine together?" In this way, it not only started the fame of this wine, but also could gather with old friends to drink and have fun, maybe it could become a momentary event, wouldn't it be counted in one fell swoop? ”

"Uncle Huang is talented, and the little nephew is very admired!" Li Yu was the first to jump out and agree, it was a pity that the king of Jiangxia did not go to business, and he understood the importance of advertising without a teacher. Li Xiaojie and Li Jingheng, who were barely sober, also applauded loudly, these two love to be lively, since Li Xiaogong and Li Daozong are so interested, of course they are coaxing.

"Good way, you and I are getting older, the injuries we suffered when we were young have flared up from time to time, I don't know when I won't have the opportunity to taste such a good wine, I just called those old friends to drink happily, even if I die, I won't live in vain, hahahaha~" Li Xiaogong said this, and picked up the wine jug and blew wildly. Li Su looked dizzy, he could drink so heroically, where could he see a trace of old age?

At the end of this wine, all the young people climbed down, and when Li Su fell, the two old guys were wrestling bare-chested, and whoever won would drink another pot, and they didn't know who would win and who would lose in the end!!
