Chapter 70: The taste is more familiar
After Shen Qiutan returned to the Shen Mansion, he had been busy making up for classes, and this was the first time he had gone out since he came back from the Tang Mansion last time.
The second lady Wang happily let go, and Wangshan personally drove the car, and Shen Qiutan came out with Muxiang.
Even though he has seen the prosperity of Sanshui County, now that he has seen the grand occasion of the East Market, he is still stunned by Shen Qiutan. Because Dongshi is close to Taiji Palace, and not far from the eleventh square of Vermilion Bird Street, which is a dignitary, the public security is quite good, and correspondingly, the things sold here are also some reputation, and even many of them can be regarded as "luxury".
Wangshan parked his car outside an inconspicuous tea shop, and Qiao Shan was already waiting at the door. Seeing that Mu Xiang helped his girl get out of the carriage, he hurriedly brought the person inside.
A small compartment isolated the tea shop where there was no one in the house, and Shen Qiutan asked Mu Xiang to take out the two boxes of lipstick he brought.
Qiao Shan took out the wood pulp red paper and beef marrow rouge purchased from other rouge shops, and several people began to compare.
Wangshan took the lead and said: "The girl is really worthy of being the daughter of the third master, this rouge is not only beautiful, but also smells of wine, and I want to eat it when I smell it!" ”
Qiao Shan glanced at him, and Wangshan felt speechless.
Girls' family, drinking is not a good reputation, this rouge is much better than the wood pulp paper, even better than the cow marrow, but this taste......
Shen Qiutan sighed and said, "I came out today, one is to let the two uncles see what price this rouge can sell for, and the other is to change the taste of this rouge." ”
Qiao Shan's eyes lit up: "Can you get rid of this wine smell?" ”
"Of course." At this time, most of the wine was made of grain and rice mixed with water, plus koji fermentation, not to mention the turbidity of the color, there were microorganisms, and some were even green, no matter how high the degree was, it was only eight or nine degrees, Shen Qiutan wanted to use it as a preservative, obviously thinking too much.
But obviously you can use propolis as a preservative at the moment, but Shen Qiutan still wants to get distilled spirits.
Of course, it is not impossible to add some spices to cover it, but good spices are expensive, and the cost of this rouge is not much higher, but it is better to use alcohol, which can be used as a solvent for both sterilization and solvent.
However, this proportion should be controlled.
Because the wine needs to be distilled, and the essential oil also needs to be distilled, this was originally the second step of the plan, but now it can be solved together, and it can save some trouble later, and the quality of this rouge can be much better.
"Two uncles, if I say that I can make wine that is better than official wine, do you believe it?"
"Official wine? Could it be that it is the wine of the royal wine under the jurisdiction of the Liang Brewing Agency? Qiao Shan's expression was shocked.
He's a man, and he doesn't know much about this grease, but if it's wine, he's not only interested, but also has some knowledge of the market. There are too many dignitaries and dignitaries in the capital, and there are also many ordinary people, who doesn't prepare wine for the banquet? It's just that I don't know what kind of wine the girl thinks, whether to sell it to rich people and take a high-end road, or sell it to ordinary people, with small profits but quick turnover.
Shen Qiutan nodded and took out the drawings of the prepared distillation machine.
"This is ......" Qiao Shan looked at the drawings, his expression becoming more and more focused.
"Such a big jar, like a pot but not a pot, and there is a fire underneath?" Wangshan asked directly.
"Yes, it's not easy for me to come out. I came out today to see if there was a place where I could make this distillation machine. ”
Qiao Shan nodded: "In this case, we still have to go to Xingyi Fang to have a look, there are gold and silver buildings and wooden buildings, in addition to masons, the best craftsman workshops in the capital have shops there." ”
He pushed open the door of the compartment, and was just about to take Shen Qiutan out, when he saw a dozen or so strong horses carrying a few teenagers away.
The one who started at the head was a majestic horse under him, his whole body was black, and only the four horses' hooves were white and neat, and I heard that this was the best of the sweaty horses.
Oh, no wonder the nephew of the Queen Mother, who made a lot of noise a few days ago, can only be imprisoned for a month if he hurts people, I don't know which high-ranking children these people are.
Shen Qiutan's eyes narrowed, and when she walked out, she only looked at a side face, how could the person at the head look a little like that King Lu?
Several teenagers galloped through the East Market, bought wine and meat, and dusted all the way to the city.
One of the young men in a vermilion beard tapped the shoulder of the other blue-robed young man: "Xiao Sheng, shoot a few more big prey in a while, don't be a rabbit every time." Also ask His Royal Highness King Lu to see what you are capable of. ”
The blue-robed young man was stunned for a moment, and said humbly: "That's not possible, but there are only rabbits on this mountain!" ”
"You're such a fool!" The young man was telling the truth, but in exchange for a violent shudder.
Seeing his second brother riding a horse to chase King Lu, the young man called Xiao Sheng couldn't help but slow down, these people are really boring!
However, when Dongshi was a horse, he thought that he was angry with his fresh clothes. They were still clamoring to hunt, and the rabbits didn't know who raised them.
He gradually fell behind at the end of the line, and suddenly a group of more than a dozen horses galloped over, and soon Xiao Zhao, who was dressed in a big red beard, leaned over.
Seeing that it was her, Xiao Sheng subconsciously wanted to hide, but Xiao Zhao shouted from afar: "Is Huo Sheng ahead?" ”
Huo Sheng had no choice but to raise his head and say, "Lord Mingzhu." ”
"Hmph, don't you drill into the palace every day? How did you end up in this rural place? ”
As soon as Xiao Zhaofu appeared, he was like the sun in the sky, dazzling and glorious, so that people didn't dare to look at it directly, Huo Sheng scratched his head, and his somewhat dark face revealed a shallow layer of red: "Today, the second brother accompanied His Royal Highness King Lu to hunt, and he also pulled me out." ”
"Li Jue is here too?"
"Yes."
"Spoiled!" Xiao Zhaolema: "In this case, I won't go out of the city!" ”
After speaking, he was about to leave, thought about it, and turned back to Huo Sheng and said, "Don't rush to the front stupidly, stay away from Li Jue." ”
"Hey!" Huo Sheng answered, and for some reason, he was a little happy in his heart.
…………
Or in the East Market, in a spice shop.
Xu said softly to his daughter: "Yu'er, this is my mother's dowry, if you want to learn to take care of the inside and outside, start with this shop." ”
The daughter is thirteen years old, at this age, she had learned to manage the family early, but the original daughter's health was too poor, and now she is better, her daughter is not only in good health, but also interested in making incense. In the shop where he got married, there happened to be a spice shop, which was just right to practice his daughter.
Liu Lingyu said happily: "Thank you, mother." ”
This shop is open in the East Market, although the shop is not big, the location is excellent, there is a silver building opposite, and there are three other shops next to it, which is the famous Bisha Fang.
The Liu family has gradually accepted themselves, and it is time for them to show some preferences appropriately.
She likes to make incense, and she is good at making incense, and now she is just running a shop, so she can't make any mistakes, but who is she? Not making mistakes is just a guarantee, since she has done it, she still wants to do it well.
If it is done well, it is not impossible to make a name for yourself.
The mother and daughter left the spice shop with their own thoughts.
Shen Qiutan, who was walking on the street wearing a hood, suddenly turned around, only to see a group of domestic servants surrounding the mother and daughter passing by him.
The girl was also wearing a hat, her back was a little familiar, and the taste was even more familiar.
