Li Zhi, who has a lot of money, naturally does what he says.

He bought a number of connected shops and houses at a high price near the middle of the East Market.

And then without hesitation, people were asked to tear down all these houses.

Next, he handed over a drawing of the Jin King Pavilion to Pei Mingli.

Let him transform this place into a three-storey main building with two two-story annexes in addition to a high-end restaurant.

Pei Mingli followed Li Zhi and saw a lot of the world.

But when he saw that Li Zhi actually planned to build a restaurant of such a grand scale, he was still shocked.

He hesitated and said to Li Zhi: "Your Highness, how long will it take for such a large restaurant to recover its costs?" Shall we build smaller first? ”

Li Zhi waved his hand and said: "Pei shopkeeper and relax, how can this king's business ever lose money?" ”

Pei Mingli still couldn't help but remind: "Your Highness, the time it took to build such a large restaurant is not short, and I am afraid that it is a waste to put so much money on it!" ”

Li Zhi said with a smile: "You just have to rest assured about money, and in a few days, the king will hand you over an extremely profitable business." ”

As soon as Pei Mingli heard that there was another big business, he immediately became interested.

So he immediately asked, "Your Highness, can you tell me what a big business it is?" ”

Li Zhi smiled: "Wine, fine wine." ”

Pei Mingli said: "Fine wine? Is it good to have three pulps? ”

Li Zhi said: "How can the wine made by this king be comparable to the three pulps? Wait a little while, and the king will let you know what good wine is. ”

Ever since Li Zhi thought of opening a restaurant, he immediately thought of making wine.

Because he was too young, he actually forgot such an important thing.

He had made alcohol before, and now that he thinks about it, it's a waste of such a good set of equipment.

But it's not too late to start, and he can't brew a lot of high-grade liquor anyway.

First, because the current grain production is not enough for him to squander, and secondly, because it is impossible for people nowadays to drink high-grade liquor.

Li Zhi once secretly drank some wine, almost any of which exceeded ten degrees.

Just imagine, if someone drinks such wine all day long, can he stand the spirits that burn his throat in his mouth?

Therefore, Li Zhi intends to make low-alcohol liquor, and at most tries to provide a small amount of high-strength liquor.

With his mastery of distillation, all of these wines can solve a problem that all restaurants have a headache today.

The problem is that the shelf life is too short.

In this era, the sake was basically brewed and drunk, and there was no long shelf life at all.

For this reason, people have even developed the habit of warming sake, in fact, it is for sterilization.

In order to save time, Li Zhi directly bought a small winery that was about to close.

In this way, he saved some time in making music.

The owner of this winery was also retained by Li Zhi.

Although they are not skilled in technology, they have an understanding of how to make all kinds of wine.

For Li Zhi, a person who understands theory and understands all kinds of good wines, it just complements each other.

For example, the owner of the distillery knows how to make koji and ferment, while Li Zhi knows how to distill and blend.

The boss knows how to make fruit wine, but Li Zhi knows how to avoid moldy and spoiled fruit.

So in just a few days, the first batch of millet wine was brewed in Li Zhi's winery.

When the owner of the brewery found out that the sake produced was actually the same color as clear water, he thought he was mistaken.

Li Zhi first took out some wine and put it aside.

Later, he took out some for the owner of the winery and Pei Mingli to taste.

At first, the owner of the winery didn't dare to drink, so he watched Pei Mingli take a small sip first.

Because the color of the wine was not quite right, Pei Mingli didn't take a big sip.

But even so, he was choked by this small mouthful and coughed continuously for a long time.

It wasn't until his coughing face turned red that he finally recovered.

He stretched out his hand and pinched his throat, looked at Li Zhi with a frightened face, and said, "Your Highness, I'm afraid this wine is poisonous." ”

Li Zhi said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Pei and relax, this wine is non-toxic, but the intensity is indeed a little high." ”

Pei Mingli was a little relieved after listening to Li Zhi's words.

He quietly felt his condition.

I found myself burning from my throat to my chest and abdomen.

This feeling lasted for a long time before slowly subsided, and only the aroma of wine remained.

Pei Mingli felt that there was indeed nothing unusual about his body.

So he tried to take another sip.

This time he swallowed much slower, so he could clearly appreciate the whole process of the liquor entering his throat.

It's a spicy sensation that even overshadows the wine at the beginning.

As the wine flowed into his stomach, a warm feeling rose between his chest and abdomen.

Pei Mingli felt it carefully and then frowned and said, "Your Highness, the villain thinks this wine is not very good. ”

Li Zhi smiled and did not speak.

Then he turned his gaze to the brewery owner.

The other party saw that Li Zhi looked at him, so he also had the courage to take a small sip.

He was more prepared than Pei Mingli, so he had a full feeling at the first time.

After a while, the owner of the winery also spoke: "The villain also thinks it is not very delicious." ”

Then Li Zhi took out some more wine, and then gave them another glass when there was still half of the wine left in the still.

Pei Mingli tasted it carefully, and this time he felt that it was barely acceptable, but it was still not very good.

The owner of the winery also tasted it, and he also felt that this wine would not sell well.

So Li Zhi continued to put the wine again, and did not stop until there was less than a third of the last remaining.

When Pei Mingli and the two tasted the wine this time, they immediately agreed that these wines should be the best spirits on the market.

After listening to the words of the two of them, Li Zhi said to the owner of the winery: "The next task of the gentleman is to blend all these wines into such flavors. ”

Speaking of this, he pointed to the equipment that made distilled water on the side and continued: "The water processed here is used for blending. ”

Where has the owner of the winery ever seen this method of making wine, all he can do at this time is to nod obediently.

Next, Li Zhi explained to the owner of the winery the brewing method of fruit wine.

That is, you must use liquor for steeping.

This is the method taught to him by a friend he knew in his previous life who liked to make his own wine.

This method can significantly improve the shelf life of fruit wines.

After explaining this, the rest of the work is nothing more than the storage of wine.

The owner of the winery knows more about these things than Li Zhi, so he doesn't need to talk nonsense.

The construction of a restaurant cannot be completed overnight.

This is just the right time to store a large amount of alcohol.

At that time, with the unique stir-fry dishes of King Jin Pavilion and these good wines, it will definitely be able to quickly sweep the entire Chang'an City.
