Chapter 15 Preparing for Winemaking
"Outside of the nickname, Bruce the fool returns to the slums and creates the 'Mambach Town Tabloid'!"
"The Mambach town tabloid publishes the blockbuster news of the boss of the Fierce Spider, and it is only given away, not sold!"
"Sir, do you read the newspaper?" Mambach Town Tabloid ', only give away, not sell, if you look at it, I can give you a free copy! ”
More than 50 half-grown children from the slums roamed the streets of Mambach, shouting and acting as newsboys to sell newspapers.
Because of the 'Zhenbei Iron Mine', the town is much deserted today. But those who stayed were largely residents of the town!
Newspapers that are only delivered but not sold, there are really no ones in the town of Manbach!
The 'Mambach Town Tabloid' is not much different from other newspapers, the only difference is that this 'Mambach Town Tabloid' is only given away and not sold.
With the mentality of having a cheap and not taking advantage of nothing, basically no one will resist this 'Mambach town tabloid'.
The old man Zhou of the black-hearted grocery store also understood the taste, according to the 'Mambach Town Tabloid Newspaper', let alone 510,000 copies of the newspaper, even 50,000 copies will be given away.
Don't you need a silver cow to print a newspaper?
Isn't this the same as giving money away to others?
And what do you get for the 'Mambach tabloids'?
Old man Zhou really can't figure out what medicine is being sold in that stupid boy's gourd!
"5,000 copies will be distributed randomly, and another 5,000 copies will be placed at designated points, shops and houses along the street, try to distribute them all once!"
Towards noon, 10,000 copies of the 'Mambach Town Tabloid Newspaper' had been given away.
Li Yinguang not only praised the newsboys' performance today, but also gave them thirty copper bull coins, and arranged for someone to take them to eat the stew.
In the future, the 'Mambach town tabloid' will need this kind of half-sized lads who are good at running on the streets and can endure hardships for a long time.
At noon, in the tavern, in the pimp inn and other meeting places, people are talking about two things.
One is the looting of the 'iron mines in the north of the city', and the other is the 'Mambach town tabloid'.
Although the 'Mambach Town Tablid' is free to distribute, it does not cut corners in terms of printing and paper, but is accompanied by 'beautiful photos', which is so attractive that many men have collected the 'Mambach Town Tabloid' and are ready to enjoy it when they need it.
The content of the newspaper is even more powerful.
Shota Kuroda, the boss of the Fierce Spider, is also a celebrity in the town of Manbach, and his feud with Dick Sr. many years ago is once again recalled, along with the reminiscent of 'beautiful art photographs'.
Soon the story about Shota Kuroda and Old Dick became popular, and some people even went to the "Mambach Town Tabloid" newspaper office to ask if there would be more detailed things about Old Dick and Kuroda Shota tomorrow, such as the follow-up to "Beautiful Art Photos", and they were willing to spend bronze bull to buy newspapers.
"Master, this is tomorrow's sample report!"
The housekeeper Goda walked in with the second issue of the 'Manbach Town Tabloid', according to Li Yinguang's meaning, the Mambach Town tabloid first put three issues, one issue a day, three days in a row, 10,000 copies a day, first make the 'Manbach Town Tabloid' popular!
"It's a wonderful little story, who wrote it?" After reading the second issue of the sample report, Li Yinguang raised his head and asked with a smile.
The butler Goda said with a smile: "I found a bard from the town, and his name is Zhibaige. ”
Li Yinguang nodded: "It's a talent, if you have any requirements, let him mention, and keep him as much as possible." ”
"Yes!"
There is no problem with the second issue of the sample report, except for the "small story" is "art photos", this time it is relatively more beautiful and bold.
Last night, Li Yinguang also did something.
Let the 'mysterious gem' sewn in his heart absorb the hundreds of kilograms of 'mutant black fuel' he bought.
'Absorption' is very simple, just put your hand on the 'mutated black fuel', not only Li Yinguang's hand, but his whole person seems to have become a tool to sew the 'mysterious gem' in his heart.
A 'mutant black fuel' weighing several kilograms, placed on the palm of Li Yinguang's hand, would only take ten seconds to turn into ashes.
Li Yinguang could clearly feel that the energy in the 'mutated black fuel' was transmitted through the meridians in his palm, arm and body to the 'mysterious gem' at the suture of his heart.
After hundreds of kilograms of 'mutant black fuel' were absorbed, Li Yinguang felt that the surface of the 'mysterious gem' seemed to have wiped off a layer of gray and misty things, and it became brighter.
He could feel the existence of the 'Mysterious Gem', just as Li Yinguang could numerically model the Castle Ironclad City in his mind through the 'Mysterious Gem', and he could peek at the entire Castle from the perspective of God.
Even today, Li Yinguang does not know all about the 'mysterious gem' sewn in his heart, and he is still in the exploration stage.
It not only recognizes things and people, can provide energy to the Iron City, but also can carry out all kinds of assistance.
For example, refining spices, providing sake brewing technology, etc.
It's like giving it a fulcrum, and it can give you the ability to evolve and perfect a macrocosm.
The materials bought from Old Man Zhou's black-hearted grocery store last night, as well as the list of pre-ordered items, were also provided by the 'Mysterious Gem'.
Speaking of Old Dick's greatest legacy to Li Yinguang, it is neither the 'Castle' nor the treasure in the secret room of the Iron City, but the 'mysterious gem' that he sewed into Li Yinguang's heart with his own hands.
In the afternoon, in addition to the list of items entrusted to Old Man Zhou to procure, the little girl with a face full of mud yesterday also brought a large number of 'sweet grass vines'.
That is, the excellent material for making fragrant sake 'purple vine'.
"A total of forty-seven baskets, according to a basket of thirty copper oxen to settle for you, a total of one thousand four hundred and ten copper ox coins, for you to make up a whole, to give you a silver ox and a half."
After the housekeeper Goda finished counting, Li Yinguang said with a smile, his eyes stayed on the half-grown boy with a scar on his face, although this young man has never spoken, he has been observing himself all the time, and he is quite bold!
Xiao Man nodded happily, took the money bag containing the silver ox coins and copper ox coins, and asked Li Yinguang with a blank eye: "Will you still harvest sweet grass vines tomorrow?" ”
His eyes were full of anticipation and hope.
Li Yinguang smiled and said: "Accept it, not only tomorrow, but also the day after tomorrow!" ”
"Words count!"
Looking at the little black hand raised by the little girl, Li Yinguang smiled and raised his hand to slap her, which was regarded as making an agreement.
After the group of half-grown children left, Li Yinguang instructed the housekeeper Goda: "Find someone to follow them over and see where they live!" ”
Turning his head to look at the sweet grass vines all over the yard, he continued: "Peel the 'purple vine', chop it into minced pieces, put it in a container, and collect the juice without wasting it!" ”
These 'sweet grass vines' Li Yinguang prepares sake brewing, distillation equipment and other things can be bought from black-hearted grocery stores, and even koji doesn't have to be made by himself.
However, Li Yinguang has a better koji manufacturing process, from fermentation to distillation, it takes about three weeks, which means that now with 'sweet grass vine' to make wine, it will take a month to produce wine at the earliest.
In addition to the koji, according to the hint of the 'mysterious gem', Li Yinguang specially refined the 'fragrant koji', saying that it can make the liquor more flavorful.
