The inside of the distillery is very large, although it is impossible to be too regular and clean because it is a factory, but it is obvious that the corresponding notice has been received to make way for Concubine Chi and her party.

Many cast-iron pots and kettles are still fermented with raw materials, which is not the same as the sake making process in Simeng.

Si Meng has a variety of raw materials to choose from, from grain wines distilled in major wineries by fermentation of grains, to wines made from sweet roots or sugar residues in higher latitudes.

With a high yield of grain and by-products, Simeng's liquor is distilled and has a high degree of alcohol, which is very popular with West Asians who need to drink alcohol to keep out the cold.

However, for West Asia, where agricultural products are relatively poor, there is no too rich grain production for winemaking, and for high-quality wine, West Asia imports more directly from Simeng, and itself relies on the characteristics of many mountains in West Asia and a large temperature difference between day and night, planting special, crystal grapes that can grow the fastest under low temperature conditions, and using such grapes to extract juice and then ferment to produce wine.

This ordinary liquor is not high, and it is often drunk daily by West Asian people who are not so firm in their beliefs, and it is considered a kind of drink, and it has also been introduced to Simeng because of its unique taste.

It's just that for the people, the purpose of drinking is nothing more than to keep out the cold or get drunk, this kind of alcohol with too much sweetness and not a high degree is not so popular with the people of Simeng, just to taste it.

The tradition and history of drinking grain wine is, to some extent, a priority privilege for agricultural areas.

Concubine Chi and her entourage walked in the factory, Xiao Hongdou asked intently about the smell of grapes in the air, and blinked: "This doesn't seem to be the smell of wine, Concubine Chi, is the wine in West Asia different from Simeng?" ”

For her, whether it was her father drinking at home when she was a child, or the wine she saw when she entered the palace to serve food and wine to Han Dongwen, it was a bit pungent taste, and this sweetness was indeed fresh.

Chi Hanqing smiled: "His Royal Highness gave me this kind of grape sweet wine in Xia Feng before, but the taste is very good, and it is not easy to get drunk, maybe it is suitable for a woman." ”

"A ...... for women"

Xiao Hongdou muttered: "Then, that Concubine Yin must also like it, should we bring her some back to Xingzhou?" ”

Chi Hanqing agreed to her with a smile, and was about to walk further, when she suddenly heard a noise from the factory next to her, and the group couldn't help but stop.

"Please, sir, I really need this job!"

It was a teenager's pleading, but it was a rude middle-aged man who responded to him:

"It's full, don't you understand? If you really need this job, why are you late, it's disrespectful to me! ”

"Sir, I really don't disrespect you, I rushed over immediately after going to church in the morning, but I really don't know when this Felion Street was closed!"

The middle-aged man obviously didn't buy this explanation, and snorted and said, "Then blame you for why you went to that bullshit church, you all work here with me, what are you pretending to do?" Get out of here! ”

Chi Hanqing and Xiao Hongdou glanced at each other, and walked towards the factory, and the guide behind him was not easy to stop immediately, so he had to trot a few steps with a blue face and ran over before the group.

"Sir, you know the situation of my family, in order to treat my mother, I want to go to the church to borrow money from my aunt, usually she refuses to see me, if you expel me again, my mother will ......"

"Don't make any noise!"

The guide drank in a deep voice, arguing with a middle-aged man with a big belly and a thin boy with curly hair, the man looked at the guide and spat to the side: "Sir, just now the winery received a notice from the Grand Duke's Mansion to receive a visit, but it was a guest of the Grand Duke, what do you have to say another day!" ”

This person should be the substitute director of this winery, and the boss is not here, so he is obviously the most responsible person.

As soon as the words fell, Concubine Chi and his party met his eyes, and a group of officers and soldiers in civilian clothes stood majestically and neatly, their eyes scanning him like knives.

And among this group of officers and soldiers, there were two beautiful Simeng women who looked in this direction, and the factory director swallowed his saliva, pulled his eyes back, only to see that the guide's face was already blue, and he took out a small book in his hand and showed it to him:

"The Foreign Affairs Department of the House of Representatives, this card represents the Grand Duke's Mansion, and it is I who informed you!"

Yes?

The factory director was stunned for a moment, his face turned a little pale, and he immediately changed his face and said with a smile: "Ah, this, sir, sorry, sorry, I just received a notice, at the moment, this is not just sending some temporary workers, so as not to affect the visit of the VIPs, please forgive me, please forgive me!" ”

The curly-haired little boy behind him looked at the group of people with a completely different atmosphere, and couldn't help but stand in place.

"Hurry up!"

The guide said with a straight face, and the factory director nodded again and again after hearing this, turned around and shouted: "Haven't you heard yet, this is the people of the Grand Mansion, go quickly!" ”

"But sir, my mother ...... her"

"Wait."

A female voice interrupted the crowd's argument, and everyone couldn't help but turn their heads to look.

The person who spoke was Chi Hanqing.

She nodded lightly to the guards on the left and right, and slowly walked towards the young man, and the guide and the factory director couldn't help but take a few steps back, not knowing what she was going to do.

"What's your name?"

She asked.

The young man was stunned, and before he could react, the guide next to him coughed: "Young man, this is the honored guest of the Grand Duke, the princess of the neighboring country of Simeng, answer the question!" ”

"It doesn't have to be that serious."

Chi Hanqing smiled, looked at the young man in front of him again, he finally came back to his senses, swallowed his saliva and replied, "Female, lady, no, miss, no, princess...... My name is Porta. ”

"Porta."

Chi Hanqing nodded after hearing this, and asked again: "You just said that your mother was sick, what kind of illness did she have?" ”

Porta stared at the veiled noble woman in front of him, he had never seen anyone of this status, let alone spoke.

The King's Princess?

If the Grand Duke had a husband, would it be that level?

His mind was a little confused, and he spoke after a while: "You, you are right, my mother is ...... I don't know what it is, I keep coughing, I don't have the strength, I can't eat......"

Chi Hanqing listened carefully and nodded: "How long has it been like this?" ”

"Probably, almost a year."

"One year ......"

Chi Hanqing sighed lightly, raised his head and looked at the guide on the side: "I want to bring some wines from the winery back, and the expenses will be paid to you by His Highness's subordinates, is it okay?" ”

The guide didn't understand what she was going to do, and nodded: "Si Meng and His Royal Highness Wen Jun don't need to spend money, the Grand Duke's Mansion will give this as a gift." ”

Chi Han cleared his head and looked at Porta again: "In this case, I also hope that this gift can be sent to the star boat, and it can be regarded as a proof that the people of West Asia have witnessed the friendship between Simeng and West Asia, how about it?" ”

There didn't seem to be anything wrong with the proposal, and the guide thought to himself before finally nodding.

Porta was then taken away from the factory, and Concubine Chi didn't seem to have any intention of visiting again, so the group went home and set foot on the way back.

"Niangniang, are you the one?"

After confirming that the guide was not looking at his side, Xiao Hongdou asked Chi Hanqing in a low voice.

Chi Hanqing smiled bitterly: "I'...... I just heard that the child's mother was sick and had some medicine on the starship, and I wanted to help. ”

"So that's ......" Little Red Bean nodded, but stopped talking a little.

"What's wrong?"

"No, no mother."

"You ......" Chi Hanqing said helplessly: "After so many days, do you still treat me as a wicked mother?" ”

Little Red Bean blinked, stuck out his tongue and said, "Actually...... In fact, I just thought that not long ago, I was serving His Highness in the Taishu Pavilion to listen to the lecture of the Lord Wenge, and there was a story of a famous doctor curing the disease, even in wartime, the famous doctor also treated the people of the enemy country, the so-called benevolence of the doctor, it seems to be this truth......"

Sensing that Xiao Hongdou hadn't finished speaking, Chi Hanqing pulled her in: "What about later?" What did His Highness say? ”

Xiao Hongdou smiled embarrassedly: "Your Highness, he ...... His Royal Highness seemed to compare this famous doctor to a lotus flower, and said something strange about the Holy Mother, what should be killed decisively, etc., which made the old man of Wenge criticize. ”

"Decisive ...... killing"

Chi Hanqing smiled and shook his head: "I didn't expect His Highness to go to lectures and books, what did His Highness think later?" ”

"The elder of Wenge talked about the way of benevolence and righteousness in detail, which seemed to persuade His Highness, let's admit that he can be benevolent, but he also said that if he saves the enemy soldiers, it is treason and collaboration with the enemy, but if it is the people, it is also beneficial."

After hearing this, Chi Hanqing bowed his head lightly and didn't say more, but looked up at the direction of the Grand Mansion across Ferrion Street, not knowing what he was thinking.
