Chapter 573: Wine

It has been several days since the emissaries of the Shadow Empire arrived in the imperial capital, and what agreement can be reached between Empress Catherine and Empress Sia, and whether the two countries will go to war, has become the focus of heated discussions. However, even if the people pay attention to these national affairs, they can only pay attention to them, and they cannot participate, and the decision is completely at the top. Compared with national events, a recent new event in the imperial capital has attracted the attention of many people.

The demons are the first to be aggressive, and the second is to drink, and wine has become an indispensable necessity of life, suitable for both men and women, young and old. Especially in this context of no large-scale wars and abundant food, in which territory, taverns are always one of the hottest places for business.

There are two kinds of wine in the demon world, one is rice wine, which is brewed with a crop similar to rice "drunken rice", due to the simple production process, the rice wine is difficult to enter, and the taste is ordinary, which belongs to low-grade wine;

In the past few days, several places in the city have been filled with people all day long, for the simple reason that from time to time there is a strange smell of wine wafting from this place, which is extremely strong, and the smell makes people feel drunk.

"What kind of wine is this?"

"It's so fragrant!"

"It's not black grapes! It's not purple berry wine!"

"This is not fruit wine or rice wine, I have never smelled such fragrant wine!"

“......”

These places are the branches of Princess Fang scattered in various locations in the imperial capital. Originally, these branches were all in danger under the crowding out of nearby stores, and other stores would rather sell similar goods cheaper, so business was extremely bleak, but these strange aromas of wine attracted a large number of customers, of course, more for the wine.

The aroma of wine wafted out from a small shot glass in a magic array, and it was obvious that this magic array had the effect of spreading and amplifying. However, it still aroused a lot of interest from customers, and they all asked the staff about the price of this sake.

Princess Fang's answer is that this wine is called strong aroma rice wine. It is the latest excellent wine developed by Princess Fang, and the quantity is limited, and it is currently not sold to the public. The day after tomorrow, Princess Villa in the southern suburbs, which is the original Youyue Pavilion, will be open for business, as long as you rely on the VIP card of Princess Place. You can buy this limited edition wine with your meal.

The higher the VIP level, the greater the discount and the more alcohol you can buy. For example, Baijing VIP can order a bottle of rice wine, Amethyst VIP can order two bottles of secondary and enjoy a 95% discount, and Heijing VIP can order 3 bottles and enjoy a 90% discount...... If you don't have a VIP card, the price won't be more expensive, but you can only order a small drink per person.

It turned out to be the best wine of the new research! Everyone just felt itching. Eyes fell on the tempting wine of Huang Jingjing in the small wine glass, if it weren't for the extremely strong defense of the magic array, I am afraid that someone would have rushed up and drank it all.

Princess Place celebrates the opening of Princess Villa the day after tomorrow. Take the opportunity to launch a rare preferential reward activity on weekdays, you only need to buy two, three, four package goods, you can get three kinds of VIP cards such as white crystal, amethyst, and black crystal;

Originally, Princess Fang's products were famous for their high quality and outstanding reputation, and they took the brand route and rarely discounted them, but now they have finally launched preferential activities, plus the excitement of fine wine. For a time, whether it was the main store of the imperial capital or several branches, the business suddenly became dozens of times hotter. All kinds of goods are in short supply, and even many of the backlogs have been snapped up. The people of the imperial capital are rushing to tell that the Princess Villa in the southern suburbs will open the day after tomorrow, and then there will be a superb wine called strong aroma rice wine. ..., "Worthy of a cunning human treasurer." A little bit of means made Princess Fang and Princess Villa the focus of the imperial capital. Isabella watched the flow of people coming in and out of the princess's workshop from a distance, and said with emotion.

"It's over, beautiful Miss Dark Demon. Chen Rui smiled, "It's just a small trick, in front of an expert like Miss who fiddles with intrigues, you can't deserve the praise of 'cunning'." ”

Isabella's seductive eyes flickered, "This wine has not appeared in the Dark Moon, when did you start brewing? ”

Chen Rui smiled: "There are still many things you don't know, it seems that we need to understand each other more deeply." ”

Rice wine is a thing he has been preparing for a long time, Chen Rui's grandfather in the previous life was a native of Shaoxing, and he had to make his own rice wine every year. When he was developing Dark Moon, he wanted to make a batch of rice wine, but the wine process of the Demon World was different from Chen Rui's shijie, and there was no "koji" necessary for rice wine brewing.

The raw materials of koji are wheat and beans, and it is enough to cultivate mycelium at a certain temperature, but these processes seem easy, but they are not so simple to do, Chen Rui wrote down the process he remembered and handed it to Tim of the Tile Lan Fortress in Xilang Mountain.

Tim was quite attentive to this, and asked his wife Liao Sha to take charge of this matter. This is a crooked fight, and the Medusa family showed an unexpected talent for winemaking, and soon cultivated koji. Subsequently, in the repeated shiyan, he succeeded in using the diluted fountain of life and high-quality drunken rice grown on the improved soil to make rice wine that was more mellow and higher in degree than Chen Rui imagined, and was named "strong aroma rice wine" by Chen Rui wine.

After the rice wine is brewed, it must be sealed in a cool, dry place for a period of time to make the wine more aromatic and delicate. Just when the first batch of rice wine was made and began to be stored, Obsidian launched a war against Dark Moon, and the entire Dark Moon fell into an emergency state of preparation, and Chen Rui also went to Bai Ling's territory and did not have time to take care of these wines.

Later, the obsidian soldiers were defeated and died, and Xia took control of the empire, and Chen Rui also remembered this incident. Originally, he wanted to seal the wine for a while before taking it out, but the situation in the imperial capital was unfavorable to Xia and he needed to open the situation as soon as possible, so he asked Tim to transport the wine to Darkmoon and get it in his hand through the Rainbow Valley.

To Chen Rui's surprise, the taste of these rice wines, which should not have been sealed for a long time, was surprisingly mellow, better than those wines from the previous year in the previous life. It is likely that it was miraculously affected by the power of the purest earth element. Medusa brewing, the fountain of life as raw materials, and the earth elemental king Liliang of the Earth Domain, just from the perspective of the maker and materials, it is already a unique and superb product.

Isabella's eyes bent: "If His Royal Highness is not afraid of the Empress Bixia's jealousy." The night after tomorrow, you might as well go to a small house in the northern suburbs to meet a certain sinister and cunning woman. ”

Chen Rui's eyes lit up, since the last time he saw through the death will in his heart, Isabella had been avoiding him seemingly out of nowhere, and now she was finally willing to face it, and said happily: "The brave knight will definitely defeat the terrible dragon and rescue the beautiful princess." ”

"Victory, is it a bribe?" said Isabella, smiling like a flower. "Don't worry, the money-hungry little dragon is now with the real princess, and no one would want a poor girl like me. ”

Chen Rui looked into her eyes and said seriously, "I want to." ”

A thin layer of mist rose from Isabella's blue eyes, and then she avoided his gaze: "By the way, why haven't you seen Lola these days? Last time she gave me something, there was a little problem, I want her to help take a look." "..., if it's a magic item or something. Chen Rui can also solve this problem, but he doesn't want to force Isabella too tightly, and said: "In the past two days, she has brought a few light spirits to Shiyan in Rainbow Valley. I'll go back to the palace tonight, and you can go find her then. ”

"I'll go, that new thing of yours is still being debugged, right? You are now concentrating on that, Princess Villa will leave these things to me, and there are three days before the negotiation deadline, and we don't have much time. ”

The rice wine strategy had been planned before Catherine's messenger arrived, and it was supposed to be a long-term economic strategy, but a letter from Catherine disrupted the jihua, especially the seven-day limit, which made the time extremely urgent. Originally, this strategy would not work as well as it should have in the short term. But Isabella says she has a way, she just can't say it in advance. Sia didn't ask, and gave Isabella the maximum authority to cut first and then play on this crucial matter.

Since the decisive battle of Lacey Town, Chen Rui has felt that the relationship between Xia and Isabella seems to be a little delicate, or there is a faint tacit understanding, for Crystal Palace. Naturally, the more harmonious the better, and he wouldn't be stupid enough to ask in front of the two women.

"Good. Chen Rui nodded, due to the arrival of the Shadow Empire's envoy, something new also needed to be released in advance, so he was very busy these days.

Chen Rui's marketing strategy was quite successful, not only was the business of Princess Fang unprecedentedly hot, but the new wine was also promoted for free. The news that the best wine will soon be available in Princess Villa in the southern suburbs has spread far and wide, attracting the attention of many merchants, especially the famous wine giant Printon in the imperial capital. Plinton is an important member of the Yoneyama family and the president of the Nightshade Chamber of Commerce. The Night Chamber of Commerce is a chamber of commerce jointly established by the Mishan family, the Ball family, the Leif family and other elder families, and almost monopolizes the black grape fruit wine in the entire empire. The emergence of new sake is a huge shock to both the Yoneyama family, which made their fortune in the liquor industry, and the entire Yeshi Chamber of Commerce.

In the long run, once the climate of Xinjiu and Princess Villa is formed, then a certain pattern fixed in the imperial capital will be broken, and it will be quite unfavorable for the patriarchal family's control of a certain aspect of the imperial capital. For now, Thea's attention is focused on dealing with the negotiations of the Shadow Empire, just in time to prepare for a rainy day and nip the threat in the bud.

To this end, the Night Chamber of Commerce urgently convened an internal meeting, which unanimously approved the use of a series of means to resolutely curb the sale of this new liquor, even including all kinds of insidious tricks.

However, before these intrigues could be carried out, the night before the opening of Princess Villa, the Mishan family's wine cellar in the eastern suburbs suddenly caught fire, and a large explosion occurred, and tens of thousands of jars of good wine were burned, which made Princeton almost faint.
