Chapter 108: Demon Rice Patriarch Tang Can

Dynastic Rebellion.

Xing, the people are bitter.

Death, the people suffer.

Troubled times are naturally full of heroes, but they are also full of corpses.

History has always been written by the victors, and everything is self-evident.

......

Several days have passed since the Battle of Jinling Pass, and the entire Jinling City seems to have returned to its former prosperity, as if nothing had happened.

It's just that the former majestic City Lord's Mansion was actually sealed.

The major notices in the city also posted notices from the government, the city lord Hu Yanzhi colluded with Qi and Chu, and was a traitor who rebelled against the law.

At the same time, the imperial court's decree on meritorious deeds and rewards also came down.

Of course, this was formulated by the left minister, and His Majesty did not care about such trivial matters.

The prefect Chen Yonglian has meritorious service in defending the city, but he has the crime of negligence, and the merits and demerits are offset by no reward or punishment.

The soldiers of the garrison in Jinling City, according to their military merits, are rewarded with silver.

The Tang clan of Jinling City was especially rewarded, with outstanding achievements, and the building was tilted in general, and Tang Xun, the patriarch of the Tang clan, was named the viscount, and the fief was Jinling City.

Tang Tang Can, fearless in the face of danger, turned decay into magic, and improved the realm of more than 100 martial artists by special means.

......

After this reward order, Chen Yonglian, the prefect of Jinling City, has offset his merits and demerits, and there is nothing good, and the biggest beneficiary is the Tang family.

The Hu clan betrayed the country, and the title and fief were rewarded to the Tang clan.

However, there is a clear difference here.

The Hu clan is the title inherited by the founding of the country, with fiefs and the right to command the army, in other words, there are private soldiers, for example, when the Hu family is the most, they can legally command 5,000 private soldiers.

However, the titles that are now divided into feudal titles only have fiefs and corresponding treatments, but they do not have the right to command the army, and they can only recruit no more than 1,000 guards in their own mansions at most.

It is also through this method that the state continues to use various means to take down the old titles, divide the new titles, and then use the local Taishou prefect and other officials to further recover the rights of these fiefs to the state.

However, even so, the entire Tang Mansion was completely bathed in the vast imperial grace.

"Oh my God, I'm ...... Our Tang clan has finally been knighted again. ”

The Great Elder couldn't stop crying, and respectfully picked up the holy decree and looked at it, completely unable to believe his eyes.

The second elder and the third elder next to him also looked at each other, no matter what, they couldn't imagine that in less than a month, the entire Tang family was actually made a viscount because of Tang Can's merits, and the entire Jinling City was included in the fiefdom.

This has been ...... in the past

It's unimaginable.

Immediately replaced him and became an orthodox aristocrat like the Hu family.

"Tang Xun, you gave birth to a good son! In the past, it was a few of us old guys...... The rat's eyes are gone......"

The Great Elder burst into tears, and a pair of old hands held Tang Xun, constantly confessing to Tang Xun there.

"Several elders are also for the benefit of the clan, but I also ask a few elders to listen to me. No matter how we fight within our clan, we must never do this kind of thing that implicates the entire clan in the future......"

Shaking his head with a smile, Tang Xun has actually been very clear for so many years that several elders have sacrificed the interests of many families in order to suppress themselves and to encourage several other brothers to seize power.

Such internal friction, Tang Xun often sees it in his eyes and hurts in his heart.

It's a pity that his ability is limited, and it is still difficult to protect himself, let alone fight back and integrate the entire Tang family.

Fortunately, Tang Can's resurrection from the dead pulled the entire Tang family back from the brink of desperation, and then rushed to the peak of rapid development.

"Yes, yes, yes! The old man is confused, never again, never again. Anyway, what about Tang Can, when he just received the holy decree, I didn't see him coming......

The Great Elder smiled, revealing the missing front tooth, and then looked around for Tang Can's trace.

Tang Xun waved his hand and said: "Can'er is not in the house, and she has been going back and forth in the fields and wineries these days. ”

"Field, he is the eldest son of my Tang Mansion, and now he has been named the same acquaintance of the fifth grade by the monarch, how can he go to those vulgar places?

"Can'er has Can'er's own business, and he is in the winery for the 100,000 jars of yellow sorghum wine that will be delivered to the Zhenhai Hou Mansion soon. ”

When Tang Xun mentioned this, the Great Elder was also taken aback, and said, "Didn't Governor Chen ask someone to tell Houfu about Huangliang Wine?

"Well, Can'er said, our Tang Mansion is doing business, so naturally we can't ruin our reputation. said that after 100,000 jars of yellow sorghum wine, it will definitely be delivered on time. Secondly, now that the marriage between the two families has been canceled, we can't owe Governor Chen a favor......"

Although Tang Xun said so on his lips, he was also worried in his heart, such a short period of time...... Where did Tang Can get so much sorghum wine?

......

However, for Tang Can, this matter is not a matter at all.

In fact, in the days since returning to the Tang Mansion, Tang Can has already made people start to prepare.

The 100,000 jars of sorghum wine originally prepared by the Tang Mansion were all manipulated by someone, resulting in the failure of fermentation in the middle of the process, and there was not much aroma of wine at all.

And now time is pressing, and the traditional ancient fermentation method not only takes too long, but also the alcohol content cannot go up.

With many technical books on winemaking memorized in his mind, Tang Can used a wine-making method that has cross-era significance, distillation wine-making method.

On the one hand, the previous 100,000 jars of Huangliang liquor were used for refermentation and processing distillation, and the Huangliang liquor with higher alcohol content was quickly obtained.

On the other hand, a large amount of grain is also purchased at the same time to start re-brewing, and with this method, the fermentation process takes about seven or eight days, and then the high-temperature distillation can begin.

To know......

In ancient China, before the invention of distillation and winemaking, the alcohol concentration of those drinks was very low, and the ancients drank wine as well as drinking water.

However, when the distillation method was introduced, it was possible to distill a higher alcohol content and a more mellow aroma.

This can be said to be an epoch-making revolution!

The same applies on this otherworldly continent.

Where have the people here tasted such a highly mellow wine?

In the winery of the Tang Mansion, when the first batch of distilled high-count sorghum wine came out of the pot, it was called a wine full of aroma.

Even Tang Can, a person who doesn't like to drink, has an urge to drink three hundred cups after smelling the taste.

And the winery workers who have worked in the Tang family winery all their lives were also wide-eyed and amazed.

At first, they thought that the eldest prince was here to make trouble, and what kind of confusing method was used to make wine, how could this make good wine?

After all, no one had ever used this method to make wine before.

In terms of winemaking, they consider themselves to be old connoisseurs, but of course they find it incomprehensible to Tang Can's strange behavior...... are all waiting to see the eldest prince return.

But who would have thought that after seven or eight days of tinkering, when the first batch of distilled sorghum wine came out of the pot, hundreds of workers in the entire distillery were all boiling.

"What kind of wine is this? Why is it so fragrant?"

"I heard that this is the wine made by the eldest prince...... Mr. Wang also said before that the eldest prince was just joking, and he couldn't take it seriously at all. Who would have thought that the aroma of wine could be so strong......"

Everyone said that the eldest prince was an immortal monarch, should he ...... The wine brewed by the eldest prince is all heavenly elixir, right? Otherwise, how could it be so fragrant?"

"Yes, yes, ...... Line up to go. The eldest prince said, this first pot of wine is for the workers of our wine workshop to drink, hurry up...... Taste it all......"

......

Suddenly, Tang Can's prestige in the Tang Family Liquor Workshop also rose to a peak with the aroma of this first pot of Huangliang wine.

After tasting the first sip, the head of the winery, Mr. Wang, had a feeling of fluttering immortals.

"Good wine......! This sip is simply unforgettable! Such a fine wine...... Anyone is willing to pay for it......"

Mr. Wang has been dealing with wine all his life, but at this time, he can't use the previous words of praise to describe the fragrance of this fine wine.

"That's it...... It's okay!"

Tang Can also tasted it, the taste was indeed good, but the alcohol content was a little worse, about thirty or forty degrees.

On the earth, although Tang Can doesn't like to drink, his father is a complete drunkard, and there are a lot of well-known liquors such as Moutai Wuliangye in the family.

However, I don't know if this world is not polluted, so the rice and grain here are very delicious, and even the wine brewed has a very special taste.

"Make do, eldest prince...... Could it be that there is a better wine than this?"

Mr. Wang didn't know if Tang Can was modest or really felt so, but after he drank another glass, he asked, "Such a fine wine, you can't use the name of our Tang Mansion Huangliang Wine before, and ask the eldest prince to give it a new name." The old man dared to assert that with the mellow aroma of this wine, it will be famous all over the world......"

"A name for this wine?"

Using his brain, Tang Can suddenly smiled wickedly and said, "Then it's called Moutai Bar!"

"Moutai, what does this mean?"

Mr. Wang didn't understand a little, what does the word Moutai mean?

"It's not interesting. It's just good! That's the name...... You continue to make sake according to this process, and this son goes down to the field. ”

After speaking, Tang Can smeared oil on the soles of his feet.

In the past two days, I have been in the winery, and the whole person is about to be pickled in the wine.

The reason why he called this wine Moutai was a pure spoof, and on the other hand, he wanted to release a signal.

If...... ...... in this world There are also time-travelers from Earth like themselves.

When he hears Moutai, he must know that something is wrong, and if he realizes it, he will come to him.

And this distillation and brewing method, Tang Can also took precautions, and did not completely teach the core skills.

Those key equipment and instrument processes were all completed by him, and only a few people who were most loyal to the Tang Mansion understood one of the parts separately.

To put it simply, if someone wants to sell this technology, unless all these people have fallen, they are indispensable, and outsiders will not be able to spy on the core technology at all.

......

After the affairs of the winery were arranged, Tang Can led people out of the city secretly and came to a fenced farmland.

That's right!

This piece of farmland is the "bug field" that Tang Can bought at a high price.

At this time, in this piece of farmland, the dragon's tooth rice has been golden and bright, and the ears have bent the rice stalks.

"Eldest Prince, this and this...... These dragon tooth rice were only planted yesterday! How can they ...... Isn't it ripe for dragon tooth rice to mature every two years?"

Grandmaster Ruan Chenfeng, who came over on the side, was stunned, he still had a lot of opinions in his heart yesterday.

felt that Tang Can, the eldest prince of the Tang Mansion who was descended from the earth, personally went to the field to guide rice planting and sowing something, which was completely self-defeating.

However, when he saw a whole field of dragon tooth rice that could be harvested right away, he was about to be stupid.

This is a dragon's tooth rice!

One acre of land, two years to harvest 200 catties.

But now, the ten acres of land in front of me, as far as the eye can see, are far more than two hundred catties per acre!

"What are you doing? Let people start harvesting dragon tooth rice! Remember...... and all shall be reaped into the silver barn......"

After Tang Can saw the results, his hanging heart also relaxed.

Really......

The two bugs are stacked and used together, which is the real king!

Golden Dragon's Tooth Rice Bug plus Farmland Bug, one can regulate and increase the yield of seeds, and the other can quickly ripen crops, and match them together...... A perfect match.

In just one day and one night, the yield per mu has increased from 200 catties to 2,000 catties, and ten acres of land is 20,000 catties.

It's incredible!

In one night, the yield of ten acres of dragon tooth rice is equivalent to the harvest of one hundred acres of dragon tooth land in the entire Jinling City for two years!

Ruan Chenfeng and those subordinates of the Tang Mansion were also frightened while harvesting the dragon's tooth rice.

Miracles!

It was an absolute miracle......

Even though Tang Can had already shown several miracles in Jinling City before, this time, he harvested 20,000 catties of dragon tooth rice in one night, which really completely suppressed Ruan Chenfeng and other martial artists who had become grandmasters.

However, when everyone was harvesting, Tang Can observed the ten acres of land, but he frowned and found a little.

"Produced 20,000 catties of dragon tooth rice overnight, and the fertility of these ten acres of land seems to be ...... It's completely overdrawn!"

Squatting down and touching the whitened soil, Tang Can also knew in his heart that although the farmland bug can accelerate the growth of plants and crops, it ...... The fertility and nutrients in the fields are limited.

If you want to continue to grow dragon tooth rice so quickly, you must replenish the soil fertility of these ten acres of farmland in time.

......
