"It's finally here!" , Xiao Ziyu sighed with emotion.
"Why don't you go to apprenticeship now?" Xiao Ziyu was a little undecided.
"No, let's do some business and make some money first! This martial arts practice is very costly. Poor and rich in martial arts, this Huashan is definitely not rich now, and when you go up to apprentice, you don't have any money to assist you in practicing."
"Yes, just make money first, and then go to the apprenticeship, just prepare for the apprenticeship ceremony, so that his old Yue is reluctant to give up, so double insurance."
Xiao Ziyu decided to do business in Huayin County first and make money.
Fortunately, he still has a few thousand taels of silver in his hand now, and he has the capital. "What kind of business?" Xiao Ziyu fell into thinking again.
On this day, Xiao Ziyu visited almost the entire Huayin County to see what business opportunities there were. In the end, Xiao Ziyu decided to do the business of 'wine'.
The liquor of this era has not yet been distilled from the earth of later generations, so the degree is very low, and the whole liquor is also very turbid, except for a few high-grade liquors.
Ordinary wine, in Xiao Ziyu's eyes, is like horse urine. So he thought of opening a 'wine cellar', or even a restaurant.
Just do it.
First of all, Xiao Ziyu spent a few hundred taels of silver to buy a four-in, four-out courtyard as his temporary 'base place'.
Seriously, the housing prices in Huayin are really cheap. Xiao Ziyu felt that these hundreds of taels were really cost-effective, and he was about ten acres of land in the courtyard.
On the earth of the afterlife, it will definitely be a mansion.
After settling down to his residence, Xiao Ziyu was ready to start the work of 'making wine'.
First of all, Xiao Ziyu had to find a craftsman to make some distilling tools for him. This is not troublesome, Xiao Ziyu directly found the county in the Huayin County Mansion and offered dozens of taels of silver, the extremely obscene-looking county Cheng, that was patting his chest, and directly helped Xiao Ziyu do it.
There are still people in the government, and it's easy to do things!
In just a few days, the county magistrate found more than a dozen craftsmen for Xiao Ziyu, and soon helped Xiao Ziyu build this set of stills.
After that, Xiao Ziyu nested in his 'Xiangshan' courtyard and began to 'make wine'. Of course, his 'winemaking' is not real winemaking.
After all, he doesn't know how to 'make wine', and he doesn't have the tools. He just bought a lot of ordinary wine from a few cellars. They are then filtered and distilled.
After more than ten days of continuous work, Xiao Ziyu finally 'brewed' all the 1,000 catties of wine they bought.
Looking at the wine jar in front of him, this shiny wine with almost no impurities is extremely mellow. Xiao Ziyu knew that he had succeeded.
The wine he has now 'brewed' is definitely the best wine in the world.
"No, this kind of wine can't be sold directly like this, it should be lowered a little", Xiao Ziyu looked at the clear wine and muttered in his mouth.
He still understands the truth of 'Huaiyuqi' very well. Now he doesn't have any strength, and he definitely can't keep it.
Once it enters the market, it will definitely be coveted. If he didn't make it, his own life would be gone. This proud world is very dark.
So, he walked out of the room directly, came to the front yard, and saw a white-haired old man, so he said to him: "Old Yang, you go and tell Zhang Qing and Li Shu to buy me another 500 catties of wine."
"Yes, sir," the white-haired old man nodded respectfully.
This white-haired old man is the housekeeper Xiao Ziyu is looking for, originally when he was young, he was a showman. As a scholar of the Ming Dynasty, of course he had to take exams for a living.
But as a result, after more than 20 years of exams, they were all talents, and the old man gave up. When he was in his thirties, he married and had children.
But it's a pity that his wife, son, and daughter all died. Leave him the old man. Later, when he met Xiao Ziyu, Xiao Ziyu saw that he was pitiful, and saw that he was honest and literate, so he took him back to Huayin and became his housekeeper.
As for that Zhang Qing and Li Shu, they are these Huayin people, and more importantly, these two people are disciples of the Huashan faction.
But don't get me wrong, they're just outer disciples of the Huashan Sect.
Coming to Huayin County under Huashan Mountain, Xiao Ziyu also understood that the Huashan faction was actually divided into inner and outer doors.
This inner door is just like Ling Hu Chong's qualifications are good now, and he was directly accepted as a disciple by Yue Buqun, and the outer disciples are all disciples of some good families in Huayin County. Their old men were originally tenants of the Huashan faction.
They sent their children up the mountain, and the Huashan faction did not want to lose the 'good intentions' of these tenants. But those people are very poorly qualified. So I casually passed on some of their fists and feet exercises, and after a few years, let them go down the mountain.
Over time, this has formed the distinction between the outer door and the inner door.
That Zhang Qing and Li Shu are disciples of the same generation as Yue Buqun. It's a pity that Yue Buqun is from the inner door, they are only from the outer door.
And Xiao Ziyu feels that once his business grows bigger, it is inevitable that some people will fight his idea. So he laid out in advance and spent money to invite Zhang Qing, a disciple of the outer sect of Huashan, to act as his guard.
Of course, these outer disciples of the Huashan Sect are also very willing. After they returned from the Huashan faction's 'graduation', they did these similar jobs, such as taking care of the home, walking darts, and so on.
And Xiao Ziyu, the old man, is very generous.
Besides, although they are the outer disciples of the Huashan faction, their martial arts are not very high, and in Xiao Ziyu's eyes, they are almost the same as him. Xiao Ziyu saw the most powerful one, but he had just opened up the dantian, and he was just a third-rate master in the rivers and lakes.
The two received orders from Steward Yang. I heard that their master wanted to buy another 500 catties of wine. Immediately, they all smacked their tongues in their hearts.
"Our little master is really rich, half a month ago, he bought a thousand catties, and now he has to buy five hundred catties, tsk!"
Li Shu couldn't help but sigh.
"Okay, don't say more, we're just subordinates, complete the task according to the master's instructions, this little master is good to us, I don't want to lose this job because you can't control your mouth."
Zhang Qing was a few years older than Li Shu, and he was much more stable, he glanced at Li Shu and solemnly told him.
"Don't worry, Brother Zhang, I know", Li Shu also knows what to say and what not to say.
It took the two of them half a day to finally bring back Xiao Ziyu's five hundred catties of wine, and this time it cost him another hundred taels of silver.
Xiao Ziyu saw that the wine he wanted had arrived, so he instructed them to move the wine to a wine cellar in the backyard.
then rewarded Zhang Qing and Li Shu with a few taels of silver, which immediately made them laugh and smile.
Xiao Ziyu left Hou, and this Li Shu suddenly grinned and said: "The master is really generous, it's only been a few days, and he has rewarded me with a total of ten taels of silver."
"Okay, stop laughing. We still went to the Patrol House, and the master hired us to take care of his house." Zhang Qing checked the silver in his hand, and his gratitude to Xiao Ziyu in his heart increased a few points. secretly decided that he must protect Xiao Ziyu well.
Bringing a jar of ten catties of wine and entering his distillation room, Xiao Ziyu muttered: "I spent another hundred taels, if I don't make any more money, I can only go and ask for food."
When he came to Huayin County, his thousands of taels of silver were now only 1,000 taels. In the past half a month, he has spent no less than three thousand taels of silver. Of course, in addition to buying this courtyard, the rest is spent on taking care of the county government of Huayin County.
This 'breaking the county order and destroying the door of the mansion Yin' is not a joke.
Immediately, after Xiao Ziyu added some ordinary liquor to the jar of distilled liquor, the jar of liquor slowly changed color, and it was no longer as clear as before.
This is the best, Xiao Ziyu tried to squeeze several kinds, so that they can be divided into different varieties. In the future, the price can also be separated.
"Very good", Xiao Ziyu tasted every one, and felt that even if he squeezed the most of them, they were much better than the ordinary wine he bought.
Moreover, the wine he distilled was much spicier and mellower than the wine he bought.
"That's it", it feels almost, "it should be ready to sell".
This time, after he distilled the liquor, there were less than 400 catties left, and it was originally 1,000 catties. It can be seen that after this distillation and filtration, a lot of losses have been lost.
However, this time he squeezed another 500 catties of wine, and now he has a total of more than 800 catties of 'new products'.
"By the way, what kind of name should I give him?" Xiao Ziyu fell into thought.
