Chapter 41: The World's First Spirit

"Remember, the main point of this retort is six words, light, loose, accurate, thin, even, and flat. The action must be light, not too thick at once. The sprinkling should be even, so that when the time comes, it will be evenly ......"

At the beginning of April of the 21st year of Jian'an, after nearly two months of preparation, under the command of Liu Chan, a pseudo-expert with rich theoretical experience but zero practical experience, several servants with rich experience in wine-making but who had never steamed wine were carefully loading the fermented sorghum lees into the huge wooden retort barrel.

"Adou, although these Shu millet are rich in wine, there is no wine. Can you steam the spirits out of such steaming? ”

Just when Liu Chan, the pseudo-expert of the two knives, was commanding several servants to retort, he heard that Liu Chan was going to brew the strongest wine in the world, and even the second master put down his military affairs and came to see the strangeness.

"Yun Chang rest assured, with many years of experience, even if Gongzi can't make the strongest wine in the world, it is definitely the most fragrant wine, hahahaha! ”

Before Liu Chan could speak, Pang Tong, who was constantly smelling the aroma of wine lees, replied for Liu Chan with a confident face.

"Second uncle, don't worry, don't look at the military advisor who is tied to a wine gourd all day long and pour two sips, and when this wine is brewed, if he can drink five liters, it will already be considered a large amount......"

After converting the unit of one liter at this time and the weight unit of the later generations, Liu Chan smiled at the second master with a confident face.

"Five liters? Why is Childe so underestimated? Not to mention five liters, even if it's two buckets! ”

Hearing Liu Chan's big words that he could get drunk after five liters of wine, Pang Tong, who had always been a good drinker, was immediately unconvinced.

"Haha, does the military advisor dare to bet with the kid again?"

Seeing that Pang Tong was not convinced, Liu Chan suddenly couldn't help but make a bet with him with a wicked smile.

You must know that one liter in the Han Dynasty was about two hundred milliliters in later generations, that is, about four taels, and five liters was two catties. No matter how good Pang Tong's amount of alcohol is, he is used to drinking rice wine and rice wine, and he can drink two catties of high-grade liquor.

"Just gamble...... Uh, is this wine really as powerful as Childe said? ”

Pang Tong, who was originally unconvinced, remembered the two gambling experiences with Liu Chan before, but at this time he felt a little bottomless.

"That's it, the kid won't say five liters, if the military advisor drinks two liters, he can still write a song "Liang's Father's Yin" neatly, even if the kid loses?"

Seeing that Pang Tong suddenly became shrewd, Liu Chan smiled evilly and used the method of agitation.

"Childe's bet is all accepted, hahahaha!"

Pang Tong, who was already unconvinced, was so provoked by Liu Chan, even if he knew that it was a plan, he was willing to take the bait at this time.

……

"Hey, this is a drink?"

Looking at the wine in front of him that was as clear as water, but the strong aroma of wine instantly filled the entire courtyard, Pang Tong, whose throat was moving directly, couldn't help but put the wine gourd in his hand over.

"Strategist, this is a wine, you can't drink it directly......

Looking at the big hops that quickly disappeared in the wine jar, Liu Chan hurriedly dragged Pang Tong and explained the difference between the wine head, wine body, and wine tail.

There is no way, although the wine head is violent, there are too many aldehyde materials, not to mention the bad taste, drink too much and wait for a headache to split, and you want to die.

Therefore, for the sake of this great military division's brain, how dare Liu Chan let him drink this wine.

"Alright, change the big urn!"

It didn't take long, and as the hops in the wine jar gradually became smaller, Liu Chan, who estimated that he was almost there, quickly ordered the servant who had been staring at the wine outlet to change to a large wine urn.

"Childe, since this wine can't be drunk, what should I do with it?"

Several servants who were holding most of the wine head and also had their throats moving directly looked at Liu Chan with a reluctant face.

"This head can be sealed and stored in the cellar, and after a period of time, a small amount can be blended into the wine to increase the aroma of the wine. It can also be mixed with the tail of the wine and steamed again......"

"Childe, you can drink this wine now, right?"

Just when Liu Chan was still teaching these servants how to deal with the head and tail of the wine, Pang Tong, who had already swallowed his mouth, couldn't wait at this time.

"Well, it should be okay!"

Looking at the fine hops that slowly disappeared in the wine urn, Liu Chan picked up two pottery bowls casually, and after receiving half a bowl each, he handed them to the second master and Pang Tong successively.

"It's as clear as water, the wine is fragrant, good wine, good wine, hahahaha!"

Taking the wine bowl handed by Liu Chan, Pang Tong was not as urgent as he had shown before. After carefully observing the color and fragrance, he picked up the wine bowl and poured the still warm liquor in front of the second master.

"Shhh...... Ha! cough cough cough cough ......"

In an instant, accompanied by a violent cough, Pang Tong's black face was instantly choked and turned red.

"I said military advisor, the kid has said that this is a strong drink, and you still drink so much...... Hahahaha! ”

"Is this wine really that strong?"

Just when Liu Chan was gloating, the second master, who looked puzzled, also took the wine bowl and poured it down.

"Hiss~"

With Pang Tong's experience and lessons, the second master, who was mentally prepared, was not choked like Pang Tong. But the smell of wine burning from his throat to his intestines like a blazing fire also made him breathe in the cold.

"Whew! Happy, worthy of being the world's first spirit. Such a strong wine, it is worthy of a husband! ”

After a while, a mouthful of wine exhaled, feeling the warmth of his body, and the second master couldn't help but stroke his beard and praise it.

Yun Chang's words are true, and the spirits show their true heroic qualities. It is believed that this wine should be a hero wine! ”

Pang Tong, who finally relieved the play, with a black and red face, set the name of 'hero' for the first spirit in the world with a face full of approval.

……

"What does the military advisor think this hero wine can be used for?"

Looking at Pang Tong who was squinting and sipping in front of him, while he was not completely drunk, Liu Chan hurriedly asked this senior drinking friend about the pricing of this sorghum wine.

"Such as ...... Such a good wine, even if it is a ...... One wine for two grains...... It's worth it, too! ”

didn't wait for Pang Tong to speak, after a few bowls of wine on the side, his words began to tie knots, but he was still the second master with a 'normal complexion', but he was the first to give a high price of one bucket of wine for two buckets of grain.

"Cloud ...... Yun Chang drunk ...... Drunk! It's such a good wine...... It's too ...... to exchange two buckets of food It's so cheap. Depend on...... According to the system, how can a drink be made...... How do you have to change it...... Replace it with ten grains......"

Sure enough, the phoenix chick is still the same phoenix chick, just like the price it set for the ice muscle paper before, it is still so 'black-hearted'.

You must know that based on the wine yield calculated by Liu Chan just observed, this sorghum produced almost six buckets of wine. And this is just the first steam, after the lees are cooled, they can be fermented again with koji and steamed again.

In this way, even if the second wine yield is lower, the combined wine yield of the two times can reach a ratio of one to one with the weight of sorghum.

In this way, the wine steamed from this Hu sorghum can be exchanged for ten Hu grains, and it will not be lost!

"Then exchange wine for ...... Change food, end ...... It's not a long-term solution. Command...... I think I think it...... Whew~"

Although she is a good drinker, Feng Xiao is not a real drunkard. Even at this time, he still maintained a rare sense of sanity and clarity.

It's just that this hero's wine is too strong, and before he can finish speaking, he is already asleep with a surge of drunkenness.

"Come on, Fu Pang Junshi and the second uncle go back to the room to rest!"

Looking at Pang Tong and the second master, who were finally defeated by the wine and fell asleep, Liu Chan, who was moved, immediately called the servants and helped the two drunks who had not drunk a total of five liters to help them back.
