"Second brother, some time ago, do you remember the family banquet in Kunning Palace?"

Zhu Li looked at Xiao Han, who was busy in front of him, and then turned his head to look at Zhu Fan beside him, and said in a low voice.

"Huh?"

Zhu Fan was slightly stunned, then lowered his voice, looked at Zhu Li and asked, "Recently, Kunning Palace has often held banquets, which one are you talking about?" ”

"Lu Ben."

A touch of helplessness flashed in Zhu Li's eyes, and then he still whispered: "Do you remember?" ”

Clear!

Zhu Fan paused, recalling that day, Xiao Han approached the two brothers and discussed one thing, that is, to clean up Lu Ben, the secretary of Taichang Temple.

Moreover, the two Zhu brothers not only agreed to Xiao Han, but even prepared to think of a perfect plan to not only kill Lu Ben, but also get out of this incident.

Thinking about it like this, Zhu Fan's scalp was a little numb, and then he turned his head to look at Xiao Han, who was still busy, and shook his head again and again: "Brother, I can't afford to offend!" ”

This pedal horse really can't afford to offend!

Xiao Han didn't forget his original intention at all, and he really had to slap Lu Ben.

Although this is Lu Ben's self-inflicted death, there is no Xiao Han's fanning of the flames?

But this game of chess is really big.

From the very beginning, Yang Xian was probably laid out by Xiao Han, otherwise, how could Lu Ben not even have the strength to fight back.

But there is one thing that Zhu Fan and Zhu Li didn't figure out, that is, Xiao Han can obviously handle all this by himself, why did he have to pull them into the water at the beginning?

But if Xiao Han knew about this, he would definitely scoff at it, and the two of them thought too much about it.

At the beginning, against Yang Xian, it was completely Yang Xian's own pen, shouting all day long, otherwise, Xiao Han would not be too lazy to move Yang Xian.

Therefore, killing Lu Ben, Xiao Han was still thinking about how to kill Lu Ben and reduce the threat of the Lu family in Jiangnan.

Thinking about it, these brothers of the old Zhu family are still reliable, so Xiao Han didn't think about it, he was ready to pull Zhu Fan and Zhu Li into the game.

But who would have thought that Yang Xian was cheating in Yangzhou and deceiving his superiors and subordinates, it was really damned, and in addition, Liao Yongzhong came to the door, so that Xiao Han figured out all the layouts in an instant.

This made Lu Ben have no power to fight back at all, and the Lu family in Jiangnan disappeared overnight.

Otherwise, if there was no such thing, Xiao Han would have to spend a lot of brains to clean up the Lu family.

"That's it."

At this time, Xiao Han wiped the beads of sweat on his head, and directly brought over a jar of purified and blended fine beer.

"It smells so good."

"It's so strong."

At the moment when the lid was opened, a smell of wine instantly diffused, even in this snowy winter, pedestrians passing by were at the door of the Marquis of Suning's mansion, pausing slightly, and even, sniffing twice, his face showed a touch of intoxication.

As for the brothers in the mansion, their eyes were even brighter at the wine jar in front of them.

After all, they are also good at wine, but after drinking wine for so many years, they know today that the wine they drank in the past is simply a waste of food.

"How is this wine made?"

Zhu Fan was already convinced, and then hurriedly looked at Xiao Han and asked.

"Not brewed."

"Purify it, then blend it, and you're ready to drink."

Xiao Han filled a glass for himself, and then looked at Zhu Fan and said.

"Purification?"

"We have naturally tasted the purified wine, but the aroma of the wine alone is not as good as the jar of wine in front of us."

A trace of doubt rose in Zhu Biao's eyes, and it was also to pour a full cup for himself, and he put it in front of his nose, sniffed it gently, and then looked at Xiao Han and asked.

"It's not the right way."

"As you know, although I can't drink well, I've always been good at wine, so I've been researching how to make wine more fragrant and strong."

"So, I summed up all the ancient distillation methods and improved the purification method in front of me."

"But this purified wine cannot be drunk directly, it must be blended, otherwise, it may harm the life of the drinker."

Xiao Han thought slightly, looked at Zhu Biao, and said softly.

According to his method, the fine wine is purified, which is equivalent to the alcohol of later generations, how can it be drunk directly?

Therefore, it must be blended, otherwise, it will not become a fine wine.

But this alcohol, in ancient times, is also very important, as long as it is properly blended, batch purified and blended to blend 75% of the alcohol, used as anti-virus effect, then this is equivalent to surgical healing and disinfection holy water.

Immediately, Xiao Han took a sip gently, and the spicy in the mouth, but mellow and soft, accompanied by careful tasting, that touch of sweetness is really endless.

"Ahem."

"After drinking this wine, the rest of the wine loses its taste."

The impatient Lan Yu suddenly took half a cup in one breath, his face suddenly turned red, and he coughed again and again, but before that, he still had to swallow this purified wine first, and then he looked at the brothers and smiled a little embarrassedly.

"Drink slowly."

"This wine is strong."

Xiao Han shook his head slightly, and then continued to speak: "This wine has to be left for a while before the taste can reach its best, now it's just to taste, don't drink too much." ”

"It tastes great."

"It's not too mellow."

"But when it falls into your mouth, it's still a little bit hot."

Zhu Biao put down the cup in his hand, looked at Xiao Han beside him, and asked softly, "How many days do you have to wait?" ”

"How many days?"

"Early next year."

Xiao Han raised his eyebrows slightly, then waved his hand and said, "Wine is like a person, it needs to be precipitated in order to be more mellow." ”

"Hmm."

"Then purify it a little more, and at that time, bring back a little bit for my dad to taste."

Zhu Biao glanced at the brothers who were a little reluctant, and he was a little reluctant, but he believed Xiao Han, so he nodded and said.

"Hmm."

Xiao Han nodded lightly.

"By the way, this purification method can't be passed on, it must be kept secret."

Zhu Biao turned his head to look at Xiao Han again, and said solemnly.

"Don't worry."

"Only Brother Tong and Ruoyi know."

"Moreover, after all, I have to be busy with other things, but purification and winemaking can't stop, so this matter has to be left to Ruoyi."

Xiao Han still nodded, but his eyes were looking at Ruoyi.

"Please rest assured."

Ruoyi bent down slightly.

"Hmm."

"Remember, you must keep it secret, and don't pass this recipe out."

But Xiao Han still looked at Ruoyi and said, "This purification method will still be of great use to me in the future." ”

"What's the use?"

Without waiting for Ruoyi to reply, the curious Zhu Li looked at Xiao Han and asked.

"The process of this purified wine is actually not so complicated, so it can be produced in large quantities, so there is a considerable profit in it."

"When the trading market starts, I can put it into the market in large quantities, which will inevitably attract the pursuit of the nobles, and at that time, I can make a lot of money from them."

Xiao Han raised his eyes, looked at the brothers, and said softly: "Anyway, the silver of the noble clan is not taken for nothing, and besides, they have opened up the market, and when the Ming Dynasty starts foreign trade, this purified wine will be spread out of the country and flow to the world, and it will be a lot of silver." ”

"Hmm."

"But are you in business?"

Zhu Biao nodded slightly, and agreed very much with Xiao Han's suggestion in his heart, but he frowned again, and said softly: "Have you ever thought that your father disagrees?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang can agree to trade the market, which is already a great blessing.

But doing business?

Zhu Yuanzhang estimated that he could eat Xiao Han!

After all, although Zhu Yuanzhang has been explained by Xiao Han, the courtiers are in business, and it is still something that Zhu Yuanzhang will put an end to, and it must not be tolerated!

What's more, Xiao Han's identity is not just a courtier, but Zhu Yuanzhang's royal family, and he has entered the family tree, that is, Lao Zhu's own son.

Then according to Lao Zhu's temperament, let his son do business?

Don't even think about it.

"If you want to find a way, you have to get the old man to agree."

"If you want to control the economic trend, the imperial court must intervene, otherwise, the economic market will still be a mess, and the effect will be little and useless."

"Therefore, since the imperial court has set up a trading market and has supported the management officials of the trading market, it must also pay attention to the matter of doing business."

"Therefore, to open the world's trading market, then the imperial court should think about how to open the foreign trade market and obtain rich benefits in the long run."

"After all, the resources outside are not weaker than those of the Ming Dynasty, so how can they be reasonably transformed into the resources of the Ming Dynasty?"

Xiao Han looked at Zhu Biao, but his finger was pointing to the wine jar, and then he continued: "The scholars are enthusiastic about fine wine, you must understand. ”

"According to the traditional process, the wine you make can indeed be called unprecedented, once it flows to the market, it will definitely attract enthusiastic attention, and at that time, it will definitely be popular."

Zhu Biao has studied economics with Xiao Han for so long, and naturally understands the importance of this wine to the market, so he nodded without thinking about it.

"That's right."

"All the wines on the market are not as good as the ones I have purified, so it will become popular sooner or later."

"Then such a big piece of fat, if you don't take a bite, don't you have to wait until the purification method spreads, and then regret it?"

Xiao Han glanced at Zhu Biao, but he didn't have a good airway.

"Huh?"

"This purification method is so important, how can it be spread?"

Zhu Biao was taken aback, and then looked at Xiao Han and asked.

"Huh."

"If it is a large-scale production of purified wine, then even if there is no recipe, the guys can remember the purification process, and at that time, it is inevitable that it will be spread."

Xiao Han waved his hand, not caring at all.

There is a saying in later generations that muscle memory is formed!

That is, as long as you have strong hands-on ability, even if you don't know anything, you can study a set of purification methods, and it is almost the same, there is not much difference.

Therefore, when the guys are completely accustomed to the purification process, then this purification method will inevitably spread.

"Then just don't do it!"

Zhu Rong's eyes flashed with ruthlessness.

"You're bad with your pen, aren't you?"

"I just said that ruling the country by killing people is the most inferior method, and now you have forgotten it?"

Xiao Han really wanted to give Zhu Fan a mouthful, and then said angrily: "What's more, what's wrong with the guys, it's not my Ming people, you say kill it?" ”

"Hmm."

"Can't be killed."

Zhu Biao slapped Zhu Fan directly on the head, then looked at Xiao Han and nodded, "Then there is no way to avoid it?" ”

Instead of killing people, it is better to use your brain and think about how to put an end to this.

"There's no way to put an end to it."

"What's more, why put an end to it?"

"When the trading market is spread, I will flow the purified wine to the market and lead to the whole country."

"At the same time, as long as people want to learn the purification method, whether they are ordinary people or powerful scholars, the imperial court will teach them for free, and they will not take a penny."

Xiao Han didn't think about it, he just spoke.

"Don't take a penny?"

"You spread it yourself?"

The three brothers of Zhu Biao, and even Mu Ying's eyes widened at that time, and they all looked at Xiao Han in disbelief, these words actually came from Xiao Han's mouth?

"Hmm."

"Spread it directly, whoever has the ability to purify and blend will go to purify and blend, and seize the market first."

Xiao Han didn't think there was anything, and still nodded.

"Then isn't this giving away all the silver from the white flowers?"

Even if he was as smart as Zhu Biao, he didn't first understand Xiao Han's operation, and then he raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Handao.

"The silver that should be earned, you have earned it, then it will be fine, after all, after you eat meat, you have to leave some soup for the people, right?"

"Moreover, when the foreign trade market was opened in the later period, the market share of purified wine was huge, and the imperial court couldn't eat it, so it was better to divide it directly."

"Anyway, the high taxes on the merchants, coupled with the transaction output of the imperial court, are enough to make the Ming invincible!"

Xiao Han thought for a moment, and then explained.

No matter how much silver the Ming Dynasty earns, it is nothing more than in exchange for resources, so when foreign trade is opened, the imperial court should pay attention to the outflow and inflow of resources, and it must form a dominant position in which the Ming Dynasty has an advantage.

Otherwise, if you just focus on the profit of purified wine, you will pick up sesame seeds and lose watermelon, and the gains outweigh the losses.

Moreover, if the world is rich, the Ming Dynasty can be even richer, and the inevitability of this is understandable when you think about it.

For example, wine brewing needs grain, so in order to make wine, merchants can solve the problem of food accumulation for the people, and the people's lives can also be better.

Of course, if you make a fuss about the small amount of grain production, then Xiao Han can only swear that in the future, the grain output will definitely increase!

There is also a spread into the mu, Daming will always be in a state of benefit, not to mention, can also harvest a wave of people's hearts, why not?

"Hmm."

Zhu Biao, who had been thinking about it for a long time, finally nodded.

After all, whether as a prince or an emperor, he must control the general trend of the world in the future.

Besides, Zhu Biao is not stupid, although there are still some doubts about the economy, but out of trust in Xiao Han, Zhu Biao believes that this must be a conclusion that Xiao Han came to after careful consideration.

"Besides, you have to give me some time."

"The original purification equipment is not completely for the purpose of purifying alcohol, but for other purposes."

"So, it has to be simplified."

Xiao Han raised his eyes to look at the purification equipment in front of him again, and said softly.

"What do you mean?"

Zhu Biao was slightly stunned, saying that he didn't understand, and the brothers behind him also scratched their heads together, unable to understand what Xiao Han meant.

What other uses can this purification appliance have besides purifying fine wine?

"If I'm just trying to purify wine, or if it's a gamble, I don't need to design such a complicated purification device."

Xiao Han glanced at Zhu Fan and shook his head.

"Uh-uh."

Suddenly, the brothers looked at Zhu Zhang, which made Zhu Fan scratch his head slightly embarrassed.

"So what's the use of that?"

Zhu Biao walked towards the steaming purification utensils, only then did he turn to look at Xiao Han and ask, "Don't sell Guanzi, hurry up." ”

"You haven't been on the battlefield, you don't understand."

Xiao Han looked at Zhu Biao and shook his head, then looked at Zhu Wenzheng and Lan Yu beside him, and said softly: "You two have experienced the Battle of Hongdu, what do you think is the chance that the soldiers will be injured and healed?" ”

"It depends on the wound."

"But the soldiers who are generally seriously injured generally can't carry it."

Zhu Wenzheng was slightly stunned, then shook his head and said, "It's less than thirty percent." ”

"It depends on Destiny."

"Whether you can survive or not, you have to resist yourself."

"So, the real survival rate is less than 20 percent."

A flash of emotion flashed in Xiao Han's eyes, and he shook his head lightly.

Back then, Xiao Han could be regarded as leading soldiers and visiting injured soldiers, but it was completely by willpower to resist, so Xiao Han was determined to change this status quo.

But at that time on the battlefield, Xiao Han couldn't take care of this matter at all, and after the founding of the country, the affairs were busy, and the Ming Dynasty was in ruins, and there was no silver to support Xiao Han, so it was delayed.

But today is different, now that the purification apparatus has been created, it is possible to start purifying the alcohol, as well as the extraction of antibiotic drugs.

Then this is definitely a guarantee for the Ming soldiers!

Of course, this is also fortunate that Xiao Han likes to study some strange things before crossing over, otherwise, Xiao Han doesn't know where to start.

"Hmm."

Zhu Wenzheng and Lan Yu, as well as Mu Ying and He Wenhui, nodded heavily.

"How do you deal with the soldier's injury?"

Xiao Han raised his eyes again, looked at Zhu Wenzheng and Lan Yu and asked.

"Naturally, the wound is cleaned with water, and then the medicine is dressed."

Zhu Wenzheng didn't even think about it.

After all, those who have been soldiers know it, let alone the generals who have led the army.

"Hmm"

Xiao Han looked at Zhu Wenzheng, and was speechless for a while, and then waved his hand and said, "I don't understand the explanation to you, but when I get it, you will know the effect." ”

Xiao Han really wanted to explain, but looking at this group of ancients,!

Don't make a fuss, they don't understand at all, so explain what a fart!

It's better to directly make alcohol, and purify antibiotics, so that they can see the effect.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."

"Master Hou."

"The Ministry of Works, Shangshu Shan Anren, asks to see."

At this time, the guards of the Marquis of Suning Mansion walked in, and then looked at Zhu Biao and Xiao Han, who were the leaders, and bowed slightly.

"Please."

Zhu Biao nodded lightly, waved his hand, and the guard bowed and retreated.

"What is he doing here?"

Xiao Han raised his eyebrows, looked at Zhu Biao and asked.

"It should be the Printing Division's business."

"Maybe we can print money."

Zhu Biao thought slightly, and then smiled.
