"It's a good thing!" Lin Zifan's eyes lit up: "Can't fit it, then start laying water pipes!"

In Lin Zifan's view, this is undoubtedly good news!

"The water pipes we made, or vegetable pots and the like, are not for stacking, but for use!"

"Pipes have never been laid on a large scale before, just because pipelines are not enough, but now!

Lin Zifan looked at Xiong Chumo and asked, "How long will it take for the main pipeline from Wuyang Mountain to Chang'an to be fully laid?"

"Back to my lord, a few days ago, due to the problem of rootless poison, the laying progress was slightly delayed, but at most about half a month, it can be laid to Chang'an!"

"Half a month? It's not bad, you can supervise this matter, and in addition, I will take the time to train a new batch of laborers on how to install indoor water pipes! In a few days, the city can start construction!"

"Yes, sir!"

Xiong Chumo and the Li family sisters took the order and left, but Lin Zifan looked at the piles of sorghum that filled one warehouse after another, but he couldn't help but steal fun.

"Tsk, I really didn't expect to find so much sorghum, a lot more than I imagined, enough!"

After a while, Lin Zifan went to the palace, spoke directly to the empress, transferred back one of the three earth cultivators, and then directly started building a brewery under Baishi Mountain!

Compared to paper mills, distilleries are undoubtedly more important and more important to keep secrets!

Wine, although not a necessity of life, is worth a lot of money!

Whether in the ancient or modern world, real fine wine is worth a thousand gold, and even if it is auctioned, the price will be terrifying!

And in this situation where the so-called fine wine is all 'spicy chicken', Lin Zifan is confident that the wine he brews is enough to beat the world...... In this case, winemaking, naturally, is a secret!

"Fortunately, although the process of sake brewing is not complicated, there are some processes, as long as I don't find out, no one can know the details!"

Although it needs to be kept secret, Lin Zifan is also quite confident that his winemaking method will not be known to outsiders......

Indeed, winemaking is not too difficult, if you learn it, not to mention the perfect reproduction, there is nothing wrong with brewing a seven, seven, eighty, or eight effect.

But if Lin Zifan takes one of these steps into his own hands...... No matter how well others learn the other steps, they won't be able to make the same wine!

This step...... It's koji-making!

To make sorghum liquor, good koji is very important. As long as Lin Zifan does not disclose the details of koji-making, there is no need to worry that the wine-making technology will be 'stolen'.

It's not that Lin Zifan doesn't trust the workers he recruited later, but that he has to guard against people......

"As long as you take the koji-making technology into your own hands, you don't have to worry about anything. Anyway, I don't need too much koji, and even if it's just me, I can easily do it...... Next, it's time to wait......"

At the foot of Baishi Mountain, watching the imaginary brewery gradually 'rise from the ground' under the busyness of the earth-based powers, Lin Zifan couldn't help but smile.

Now what Lin Zifan needs to do is wait!

Waiting for the brewery to finish, waiting for a group of 'workers' to be hired, waiting for ...... The arrival of wheat!

Lin Zifan asked the civil and military officials to go down and go to the mountains to find food, one of which was 'wheat'.

The raw material used to make koji is wheat!

Therefore, when the koji is made and the workers are recruited, the sake brewing can begin.

"Then again, recruiting people is a problem now......"

Back in Chang'an, Lin Zifan's brows furrowed slightly.

"Although the autumn harvest has ended, the women of every family, as long as they have free time, basically go out to look for food, and the mountain people from all over the country are busy hunting and looking for food, and they will not come to apply.

With the presence of earth-based abilities, it will only take a few days at most to build a brewery.

As for the wheat, Lin Zifan estimates that it can be found in a few days at most. In contrast, the recruitment of workers is the slowest.

"Adult ......"

Back in the department, Lin Zifan Lin Zifan immediately got a report from Li Goudan: "Let's come this day, and we only recruit ...... Alone. ”

"How many?"

Lin Zifan glared, although he guessed that there must not be many people, but he didn't expect that there would be only one!

"Yes, my lord......"

Li Goudan smiled bitterly: "Everyone is busy looking for food, or going directly to the mountains to hunt, now there are basically not many adult women in the city, and even many fourteen or fifteen-year-old women have followed up the mountain, and it is really difficult to ...... if you want to recruit people."

"Indeed......" Lin Zifan sighed faintly.

Along the way, the whole Chang'an has been a lot deserted, but it is not because the weather is too cold that people are reluctant to go out, but because everyone is not in Chang'an......

"My lord, let's ...... What to do?"

Although I don't know why Lin Zifan suddenly wants to make wine, and what winery he wants to open, since he wants to do it, Li Goudan and others will naturally give their full support.

But now, they can't recruit people, which makes them a headache.

"I'll figure it out......"

Lin Zifan frowned, his mind turning sharply.

"There is no one in the whole Chang'an, the rest of the city, or the mountains must not be much better, the people in the department can't move, and the palace maids have been transferred to the paper mill if they are free......"

"Grandma's, is there really no manpower?"

Lin Zifan also had a headache: "I used to say that there were too many women and too few men, but now it seems that there are not many women, as for men, ......"

"Wait, man?"

Lin Zifan's eyes rolled: "Although relatively speaking, men are powerless, but that is only for women in the Tang Dynasty......"

"Compared with the men of Huaxia, the physical fitness of the men of the Tang Dynasty is almost twice as good, if it is just winemaking, the man is completely competent, and ...... It's good to do!"

"In that case, why don't I hire men?"

"Moreover, in this way, the role of men can be highlighted in advance, so that when I promote equal rights for men and women in the future, many people will be dissatisfied or rebound, killing two birds with one stone......"

There was a faint flash of light in Lin Zifan's eyes, he was a little moved, but at the same time, he was also a little worried.

For example, will there be any objections, or will these men who usually do not go out of the door, follow the three obedience and four virtues, and marry and teach children at home, are willing to come out to 'work'?

After thinking about it, Lin Zifan felt that it was still not easy for him to make decisions about this matter.

After all, maybe someone will jump out to oppose something, and it is because he decided to enter the palace to discuss with the empress......
