Chapter 15 Wine
Fan Lie asked his wife, and Xue'er told him that the Ning family's golden pill had been practiced by her, but it had no effect.
Carefree had been gone for twenty days, and the food they had left could barely last for about ten days.
Wude came to Fan Lie.
"Young master, the master is gone, and I don't know when I will come back, the food in this house can only last for less than ten days, we have to think of a way, if there is no food, it will be too late." ”
In Fan Lie's more than 20 years of life, he has only done things earth for food, and the rest of the time, this has never been something he considers. Fan Lie looked at Qiao'er, who was standing behind Wude, with red eyes, and asked in surprise, "Qiao'er, what's wrong with you?"
Wude smiled embarrassedly: "Young master, this child is too ignorant, I divided the food into daily rations, she was hungry, she ate some tomorrow, I said a few words to her." ”
Looking at Qiao'er, when Fan Lie was about to speak, Lin Yuxue also came in. His wife's somewhat gray face made Fan Lie feel a little panicked: What should I do, there will be a shortage of food at home soon.
Wude said: "Young master, I want to go to Tianmu City to help other people's helpers, and I can earn some money in a day." So that we can wait for the master to come back from collecting medicine. ”
After listening to her father's words, Qiao'er said in a hoarse voice: "Qiao'er and my father go together, so that they can earn more." ”
Lin Yuxue slowly walked to Fan Lie's side and smiled, her eyes showed a mischievous look and said to the Wude father and daughter: "No, I have already made the wine, I believe that there must be many people in Tianmu City who like this kind of wine." ”
It turned out that since she left without worry, Lin Yuxue picked 100 catties of grapes and made wine by herself. Today, it's the day of the wine.
Fan Lie was happy in his heart: "Xue'er, how much have you brewed?"
"A hundred catties of grapes can get more than 70 catties of wine, according to my calculations, how can these ten catties be sold for a tael of silver, more than 70 catties, you can get 7 taels of silver, these money is enough for us to have food to eat in a month. ”
Wude hesitated and said: "The master said that the purple strain is an evil thing, if people know that we use it to make wine and sell it, I'm afraid it's not okay?"
Fan Lie patted his wife's shoulder and smiled, and then said to Wude: "Father risked going to the Hengduan Mountains to collect medicine for the sake of us. I understand what he means, this grape, oh, this purple plant is an evil thing in the eyes of the world, but now it has become wine, as long as we don't say it, who knows that our wine is made from purple plants. Cher, bring us some wine and let us taste it. ”
Seeing her husband eyeing at her, Lin Yuxue understood that Fan Lie wanted to let the Wude father and daughter taste the taste of wine.
Looking at the wine as red as blood in the two small porcelain bowls, Wude frowned and said, "Young master, can you drink this wine, why is the color like blood?"
Qiao'er didn't have her father's concerns, and when she smelled the aroma of wine, her eyes lit up, and she took a sip of it. After the wine reached Qiao'er's mouth, Qiao'er's eyebrows were raised, her eyes narrowed into crescents, and she drank the rest of the wine.
"It tastes good, father, taste it, I've never drunk such a good wine!"
After listening to his daughter's words, and then looking at his young master and grandmother with a smile, Wude reluctantly picked up another bowl and took a sip.
After the wine reached Wude's mouth, his expression was a flurry, and then he slowly drank the wine, and took a sip of the wine in the bowl.
After swallowing this sip of wine, Wude drained all the remaining wine in the bowl and sighed: "Young grandmother, this taste is so good, what do you call this evil thing...... Yes, grapes! How can it make such a delicious wine? ”
Fan Lie smiled and said: "How about it, this wine is delicious, let me tell you, let's call it purple plant here, and call it grape in other places." Wine made from grapes is the most delicious wine in the world. Wude, in your opinion, can we sell this wine?"
"Young master and young grandmother, I really convinced you, I really can't believe that young grandma she can brew this kind of wine, this wine is really the best in the wine! Its taste is a little astringent, but it is strangely fragrant, this wine fragrance is not the fragrance of other wines. It is slightly sweet, and the degree of wine is not high, but it is better than the pear flower village of ten taels of silver and a pound on the market in Ningguo. If this kind of wine is sold, I think we will have no problem selling it for ten taels of silver a catty!"
Fan Lie nodded: "Okay, then that's it, you take ten catties to Tianmu City to sell tomorrow, so that we don't have to worry about food anymore." ”
Lin Yuxue said: "Now is the season for grapes to ripen, Qiao'er and I will pick more these days. If you buy the money, you can buy a few more large clay pots, and let's make more and save them and sell them later. ”
Wude smiled and said, "Okay, young grandmother." Young grandmother, where did you learn this craft, and how did you know that the purple plant can make such a delicious wine?"
..............................................................................
Their residence was thirty miles away from Tianmu City, and Ning Wude set off at dawn the next day, in his words, going early and returning early.
In the afternoon, Ning Wude came back, his face was excited, and when he saw Fan Lie, he said loudly: "Young master, the ten catties of wine I brought were robbed, ten taels of silver per catty, and a total of ninety-five taels of silver were obtained after removing half a catty for people to taste." Young master, we will have some money to make in the future!"
No wonder Ning Wude was happy, he brought the wine to the bazaar in Tianmu City, and only shouted a few times at the top of his voice: "The unworldly wine, taste it first and buy it later, it's not good to drink and it's not good for money, come and buy it..............................!"
The morning market was full of domestic servants, cooks and the like, and as soon as Ning Wude shouted like this, he was attracted over. A tall and fat man asked Ning Wude: "Hey, what kind of wine are you selling, let me taste it, if it's good, I'll want it all." ”
This big man's name is Zhang Xingliao, but he is the chef of a restaurant in Tianmu City, and today he came to buy ingredients. When he heard Ning Wude's shout, he wanted to laugh a little in his heart, their Yanlai Restaurant is a famous "wine" building in Tianmu City, and there are almost everything in the wine of the seven countries on the Wulian Star, such as "Caiyunbian", "Heilongkou" and "Lao Songshan", the three famous wines they have in Yanlai Restaurant, and other general like "Lihua Village", "Lao Fan" and "Nanjian" are even more available. Now that he heard Ning Wude say that there was an unborn wine, how could he not make him laugh in his heart.
Ning Wude was also poisonous, as soon as he looked at the big man talking in front of him, he felt that today's business was coming.
Ning Wude saw that Zhang Xingliao had a delicate kitchen knife pinned to his waist, this kind of kitchen knife was only available to the chefs of those big restaurants.
Ning Wude opened the ten-pound jar of wine he brought, poured about one or two and put it in a porcelain bowl, and brought it to Zhang Xingliao.
At this time, there were already many people standing around Ning Wude, more than twenty of them. They all gathered around when they heard Ning Wude's shouting, and at this time, they saw him pick up a small bowl and hand it to the big man who asked him to try it.
In this issue, two or three people who recognized Zhang Xingliao said: "Xingliao, you taste, this person said that he sells unearthly wine, you are the chef of Yanlai Restaurant, you should know the quality of this wine." ”
Zhang Xingliao looked at the red wine in the bowl with fascinated eyes and the light of the morning sun, and said with some doubts: "What kind of wine is this, it looks like a rare "Red Fang drunk", but it is darker than the color of Red Fang wine. ”
Red Fang wine is a kind of fine wine of the Ming Kingdom, and the color is somewhat similar to the wine made from this grape.
Zhang Xingliao picked up the bowl and sniffed it, "It's so fragrant, this aroma is intoxicating." With that, he drank the one or two purple plants in the bowl.
Ning Wude watched Zhang Xingliao drink the wine into his mouth, and couldn't help but feel a little nervous in his heart, he felt that this kind of wine was very delicious, but this is the chef of the restaurant, this person's mouth is the most tricky, I don't know what it feels like for him to drink it.
After the wine reached Zhang Xingliao's mouth, his brows furrowed, which made Ning Wude's heart skip a beat.
After Zhang Xingliao frowned, the two long eyebrows spread again, and he swallowed the wine.
"Come, pour me some more, I'll taste it again, but it's a good wine!"
Hearing the big man in front of him say that his wine was good wine, Ning Wude couldn't help but smile, he poured the bowl that Zhang Xingliao was holding to the brim, and it looked like four taels.
"Be careful, don't spill it, okay, okay!"
This bowl of wine, Zhang Xingliao took it and drank it all.
With his mouth open, Zhang Xingliao laughed and said, "You say, how much can you sell this wine?"
Ning Wude saw Zhang Xingliao's expression and said with a smile: "This kind of wine is extremely difficult to brew, and our young master asked me to sell it for ten taels of silver a catty." ”
"Okay, how many are these cans, I want them all, oh, I forgot to ask, what is the name of this wine?"
Ning Wude said with a smile: "This kind of wine is called wine. ”
Zhang Xingliao said: "Wine, what a strange name, how to write the word grape?"
Ning Wude was asked, and he didn't know how to write the word grape. He knew in his heart that this wine was originally made by purple plants, but the name of this purple plant lent him a few dares and did not dare to say it.
"This is the name given by our young master, and I don't know how to write the word grape, you want to know, and I will tell you when I come back." ”
"Okay, this is my communication jade card, if you have this wine again, send me a message, how much, how much I will receive!"
As he spoke, Zhang Xingliao took out a cyan jade plaque from his arms and handed it to Ning Wude.
The communication jade plate is a common means of communication in the Xiuzhen civilization, just like the digital communication in the program civilization.
..........................................................................................
Ning Wude told Fan Lie and the others about his wine sale, and Qiao'er jumped up happily: "Young master, let's make this wine to sell in the future, this first sale can be sold for ten taels of silver and a catty, and we will have money to make in the future!"
Seeing Ning Qiao'er's happy face flushed, Fan Lie and Lin Yuxue looked at each other and smiled.
A month has passed, forty days have passed, two months have passed, and Ning Wuwu has gone, and there is no more news.
Fan Lie had a bad thought in his heart, if it weren't for his father, something happened to him.
Looking at the mountain peaks in the distance, Fan Lie felt some indescribable sadness in his heart. Lin Yuxue helped him and whispered, "Let's go back to Tianmu City, there are more channels to find out the news there than here, maybe we can find out about my father's news there." ”
Fan Lie listened to his wife's words, was silent for a while, and said softly: "Okay, let's go back to Tianmu." ”
