Chapter 111: The dragon and phoenix are innocent and drunk

By chance, Liu Tianhao decided to make wine!

He now has money, food, springs and people, and he will do what he says!

In the afternoon of the same day, Liu Tianhao, under the leadership of Li Yang and Wang Ji, went to Fengming Mountain in the city to inspect the terrain!

Lunu City is not very big in the first place, and Fengming Mountain is located in it, which is actually a small hill less than 100 meters!

Even so, there are pavilions and pavilions on Fengming Mountain, and even better, there is really a clear spring bubbling out from under the Fengming Tower on the top of the mountain, and I don't know how Liu Bei, his ancestor, Liu Sheng, the king of Zhongshan Jing, found it back then.

A pool of spring water can actually gush out on the top of a 100-meter-high mountain, and according to Wang Ji, this Fengming Spring has never dried up for hundreds of years.

Fengming Mountain is not high and not wide, naturally there is no rain to gather into a spring, it must be groundwater!

But if it is groundwater, it is a bit against the natural avenue, there is no spring in the city below the mountain, why can spring water gush out from such a high mountain?

Liu Tianhao and Jia Xu, after seeing this Fengming Mountain, Fengming Tower, and Fengming Spring, they were all amazed!

Amazed and amazed, Liu Tianhao was very satisfied with this Fengming spring water, rolled up his sleeves, picked up a handful of spring water with both hands, tasted it, and felt that it was really sweet and cold, and it was a good spring!

Since he was satisfied, Liu Tianhao immediately instructed Li Yang to protect the spring from now on, and be sure not to let people pollute it! In addition, the households near the downstream of the spring must also be resettled and demolished as soon as possible, and at least one acre of land must be vacated for Liu Tianhao!

He's going to build a winery!

When the power is in his hands, all matters are handled with great efficiency, and in less than two days, Li Yang has already relocated and relocated hundreds of households on the side of Fengming Pond, which is formed by the Fengming Spring Water down the mountain! It is enough to free up nearly three acres of land for Liu Tianhao!

In this era, no compared to later generations, there are demolitions, and naturally there are nail households; At this time, the right is God, the hundreds of families that have been moved away, even if some of them are landlords and gentry, but they all give Liu Tianhao enough face, and they dare not give it!

However, Liu Tianhao also gave compensation for the demolition and resettlement of these 100 families!

Everyone's happy!

Liu Tianhao did not tear down all the empty houses after the 100 families moved away, but selectively demolished and rebuilt some poor people's houses that could not block the wind and rain.

The five brewers in the city also honestly sold all their wineries to Liu Tianhao, took a large amount of copper money paid to them by Liu Tianhao, and switched to other businesses!

Liu Tianhao only moved the wine-making tools, sake lees, and koji to his newly built winery, and the site was returned to those families; However, those winemakers and servants were all hired by Liu Tianhao, anyway, these people are making wine everywhere, and Liu Tianhao will not pay them less wages!

In just ten days, Liu Tianhao's wine shop has begun to take shape!

A full 199 wine cellars have been excavated and paved, and each wine cellar can store 2,000 catties of water and wine!

The wine has not yet been brewed, and Liu Tianhao has already classified and numbered these wine cellars! The No. 1 cellar wine is permanently sealed, and it cannot be sealed for a hundred years, at least, Liu Tianhao will not agree to seal this cellar wine if he lives for one day! No. 2 to No. 4, a total of three cellars, sealed for fifty years, that is, until Liu Tianhao is in his seventies, can it be opened! No. 5 to No. 9, a total of five cellars, sealed for 20 years; No. 10 to No. 19, ten cellars sealed for ten years; Then, thirty cellars are opened every two years! The remaining 150 cellars, once every six months, are used for commercial sales or courtesy!

Those hired wine-making handymen are very unfamiliar with these wine cellars opened by Liu Tianhao, they have been engaged in winemaking skills for decades, and some have been engaged in winemaking for three or five years, but they have never heard of wine that can be cellared!

Liu Tianhao naturally didn't explain much, in the short term, he also planned to secretly preserve this wine-making method; Not only did he not tell these handymen that they were ingenious, but Liu Tianhao also asked Wang Ji to strictly manage these people, and he must not let them arrange their own wine shop to spread out!

The winery of three acres of land is also built up a circle of walls, leaving only a big gatehouse to stand, directly facing a north-south avenue in Lunu City, the avenue goes down to the south is the south gate of Lunu City, and the location of Bingtun is also less than a mile away from the winery!

The gate tower is to obtain the main trunk of three hundred-year-old poplar trees on Taihang Mountain, two vertical and one horizontal, this gatehouse also took Liu Tianhao a lot of effort, before it was done!

The trunk of the poplar tree has long been stripped of its bark and brushed with tung oil every day to prevent it from rotting!

Each of the three big pillars is carved with a line of words, and the left pillar reads: the wine is soaring, and the birds smell the fragrance and turn the phoenix; The book on the right column: dregs fall into the water, and the fish taste like Jackie Chan; The horizontal pillar is even more big five words: the dragon and phoenix are innocent and drunk!

That's right, Liu Tianhao named the wine he was going to brew: Dragon and Phoenix are innocent and drunk!

Everything is ready, and the stale grain in the warehouse is continuously transported to the Dragon and Phoenix Distillery!

Liu Tianhao also handed over the Longfeng Wine Workshop to Wang Ji, a warehouse official, to manage, and Li Yang would also be responsible for assisting him!

For the first time to make wine, Liu Tianhao can be said to be exhausted, stationed in the Dragon Phoenix Distillery day and night, always instructing the winemakers! From fine grinding, cooking, stall drying, koji, until entering the cellar and hiding, Liu Tianhao has not been idle for a moment!

Tai Shici, Jia Xu, Dian Wei, Xu Chu and Zhang Liao and others also have to go to Longfeng Distillery every day to patrol, Dian Wei and Xu Chu smell the smell of sake lees koji, and they want to drip saliva!

After another ten days, Lu Bu took a few families from the clouds, led Xu Huang with nearly 20,000 troops, passed through the convergence of Daijun and Guan Yu, and joined the 5,000 soldiers of Daijun, and went all the way south, and came to the outside of Lunu City, the army was stationed on the spot, and a cadre of generals and family members entered Lunu City!

In the cities of Yanmen, Yunzhong, and Dai, Liu Tianhao handed over all the six strong generals led by Gao Shun and Cao Xing, and defended them with an army of 10,000!

The lively atmosphere in Lunu City deeply shocked Cai Yong, Guan Yu and others; Among them, except for Cai Wenji, Mi Zhen, and the female children of Lu Bu and Guan Yu's families, without exception, they are all most interested in the Dragon and Phoenix Wine Workshop in the city at that moment!

After Cai Wenji came, Liu Tianhao no longer had to stay in the Dragon and Phoenix Wine Workshop every day, however, there was one less Liu Tianhao in the wine shop, but there were three more people, Cai Yong, Guan Yu, Dian Wei, these three people must go to the wine shop to report once a day, and if there is no wine to drink, they go around the three acres of land in the wine shop and walk around!

Guan Yu and Dian Wei are good wine, Liu Tianhao is very clear! What surprised him was that Cai Yong was so obsessed with wine, why didn't he find it when he was in the clouds? Liu Tianhao asked Cai Yong privately, and Cai Yong said that the aroma of wine emanating from Liu Tianhao's Dragon and Phoenix Wine Workshop is too sweet and strong, even if you can't drink wine for the time being, just smelling the aroma of wine is also a kind of enjoyment!

Liu Tianhao was silent for a moment, the good drinkers in this world are probably divided into two categories, one is the reckless hero, and the other is the literati, only these two kinds of people are fond of drinking and good wine and know more about wine! People who are good drinkers, after getting drunk, can be divided into two categories according to whether they are sober or not. If you don't know anything, you can only be counted as a sage in wine! It's like Guan Yu and Zhang Fei, Guan Yu is a wine saint, and Zhang Fei can only be regarded as a wine sage!

It is important to understand wine! Wine is more important!

After another ten days, Liu Tianhao couldn't bear the entanglement of Guan Yu Dianwei and others, and at the same time, in order to verify whether the distillation tools were perfect, he finally took a cellar of wine out to satisfy everyone's appetite!

In fact, the reason why Liu Tianhao wanted to take a cellar of wine out first was more to take into account Cai Yong's mood, this old man has been more and more excited day by day for more than ten days, and every time he comes back from a walk around the winery, he has to find Liu Tianhao to discuss the topic of wine; At dinner in the evening, I sighed again and again, instead of drinking these original drinks in Lunu City, it is better to go to the winery to smell the wine!

In this way, Liu Tianhao eats very tangled at every dinner, Cai Yong is unpleasant, and Cai Wenji on a table is naturally unpleasant!

Coupled with Guan Yu, Dian Wei, and Jia Xu, they inadvertently asked and urged Liu Tianhao again and again, Liu Tianhao was really fed up!

A cellar of wine is 2,000 catties, Liu Tianhao and these people naturally can't drink it in one meal! But once the cellar is opened, the whole cellar wine can only be canned and stored, not here!

In this first cellar of wine, Liu Tianhao only dared to distill it three times, and did not dare to increase the number of distillations, even so, the wine was clear and transparent, thick as a pulp!

In the evening of the same day, in the Zhongshan Palace, the generals, civil officials and military generals gathered together to drink wine, eat meat with a chopstick, talk and laugh, and discuss martial arts.

Half an hour later, the meat did not decrease, but most of the people were drunk, only Liu Tianhao, Xu Huang, and Li Yang were sober; Liu Tianhao has a vague idea of his own wine, Xu Huang and Li Yang are not very good at wine, and Liu Tianhao has instructed them to drink less in advance, so they are not drunk!

Those who drown will always know how to water, that's true!

Dian Wei and Guan Yu were used to drinking the previous rice wine, and as soon as Liu Tianhao's wine came up, the two of them went directly to a large bottle, and they didn't feel it at first, but after three or five mouthfuls of food, the strength of the wine came up suddenly; The two of them didn't know it, they poured down another bottle, and the third bottle had not yet been lifted, they were already drunk, and they fell directly on the table!

Cai Yong is also not much better, because he is a scribe, he drinks more Sven, but he can't hold back his greed, he drinks one bite at a time, and he doesn't eat vegetables, and it doesn't take much time to drink a bottle of wine, just drink it all, after all, he is older, and he only drank most of the second bottle, and when there was still a little left, he was also disarmed and surrendered!

Jia Xu and Lu Bu fell one after another!
