A tavern that only sells wine and not food, if someone told Hu Wei a few minutes ago that there is such a place in the world, Hu Wei would definitely not believe it, but now he has to believe it. After asking several questions, Hu Wei finally decided that it only sold wine, and nothing else.

"It's really professional, then give me a pound of wine. Hu Wei shook his head helplessly. There are a lot of strange things in Dali, and it seems that I have to be mentally prepared in this regard.

After Xiao Er went down, he quickly brought a small jar of wine to Hu Wei. A small jar is exactly a catty, which is no different from other places.

However, Xiao Er didn't bring a bowl to Hu You, Hu Wei wanted to ask more, but seeing Xiao Er put down the wine and leave, Hu Wei swallowed the words back.

If you don't have a bowl, you won't have a bowl, and the wine jar is not very big anyway, so you can drink it directly to your mouth.

Slapped open the mud seal, and a smell of wine rushed to the nose. Hu Wei secretly said a good wine, picked up the wine jar, and took a sip to his mouth.

After only one sip, Hu Wei squirted out directly before he swallowed the wine.

Maragobi, what kind of wine is this, it's so spicy, you have to swallow it, and your intestines have to be burned. Hu Wei has drunk a lot of wine, and burning knives is already the highest level of wine, but burning knives is really too far behind this wine. Is this kind of wine really for people to drink?

Hu Wei's gaze skimmed over the empty tavern and went directly to the little er. He'd have to ask what kind of trick it is. It's for people to enjoy, but it still needs human life.

As soon as Hu Wei's gaze found the little er, he was stunned by the little er's expression again. I saw that the little two were dumbfounded, looking at Hu Wei like a monster. No, it's not like looking at a monster, looking at him like that, he just took Hu Wei as a monster.

Hu Wei will be angry in his heart, but this is someone else's territory, and it is not good to attack on the spot. Shaking his hand helplessly, he called Xiao Er over.

Xiao Er saw Hu Wei's gesture, hesitated for a moment and walked over, and before Hu Wei could ask, Xiao Er had already asked Hu Wei with a surprised face, and said, "Guest officer, you just drank this wine?"

Hu Wei scolded in his heart. The wine was not drunk, but was it poured out?

Recalling his experience just now, Hu was so worried that he admitted that wine also has a function of spraying. Didn't he just squirt it?

Hu Wei suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and asked, "Isn't this wine for drinking?"

"Of course not. Xiao Er's answer must have made Hu Wei feel like a fool.

"Then what is this wine for?" Hu Wei couldn't help but be angry. He suddenly realized that he must have done something very stupid. At least in the eyes of this little two, it must be like that.

"It's used to light the lamp. Xiao Er replied without thinking about it.

Lighting?

Hu Wei was stunned for a moment, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind. Could it be that this in his hand is not wine, but alcohol?

Well, very likely. According to the taste of this wine just now, it is much stronger than the burning knife, at least above 70 degrees, and it is really likely to be alcohol.

There is actually alcohol in the Tianfeng Continent, and Hu Wei really didn't notice this problem before.

"Can you give me a try? I'm sorry, I'm a foreigner, I've just arrived here, and I don't know a lot of things. Hu Wei lowered his posture very low. Ask for someone, you look arrogant, who will pay attention to you.

Xiao Er heard that Hu Wei said that he was a foreigner, so he was relieved a lot. Wen Yan nodded, asked Hu Wei to wait, ran outside and found a small lamp, poured the wine into it, and lit it. The pale blue flames dance like elves in the air with the wind, accompanied by a faint aroma of wine, which is really beautiful.

"It turned out to be used for lighting. ”...,

It wasn't until this time that Hu Wei understood why this tavern didn't sell food, and there wasn't even a single drinker. It turned out that he was mistaken, and the wine was not used to drink, but to light the lamp.

"This is supposed to be a corn stuffed bar. Hu Wei asked Xiao Er.

Ordinary rice wine will never have a very high number, only multigrain wine can be purified to such a point. Hu Wei will understand a little bit what the extra corn is used for by the people of Dali.

Making wine from corn is no secret in Dali. Xiao Er didn't hide it, and nodded honestly. And by the way, he also found a small advertisement for his tavern, and specially mentioned to Hu Wei that the wine here is the purest, and the lighting is the best.

Hu Wei groaned, he didn't think about lighting the lamp. He's thinking about another question, and that's the effect of alcohol. Hu Wei has a lot of knowledge beyond this era, but because of the conditions, Hu Wei knows a lot of things, but he can't use them, and he can't find them. This will inadvertently, so that Hu Wei discovers a good thing.

Alcohol, it's not just for lighting lights. It's very good for disinfecting external wounds. Now that the Tianfeng Continent has been fighting for many years, the price of various wound medicines has remained high, and this aspect is also a heavy burden for the Immortal Bird Legion. If you can get Dali's alcohol back, it will not be equivalent to picking up a huge fortune for nothing, and it can even improve the combat effectiveness of the entire army.

Could it be that this is God's compensation for me? I didn't get much from the demons, so he gave me alcohol?

"Guest officer, what's wrong with you?" Xiao Er couldn't help but be a little scared when he saw Hu Wei standing there stupidly. secretly wondered if he had drunk the wrong wine just now and became stupid.

"Hehe, I'm fine. Little second brother, is it okay to ask you a question?" Hu Wei smiled kindly.

"Of course you can, as long as I know it. ”

"Of course you know that, I want to ask you how many more of these drinks you have here, I want them all. ”

The little second brother exclaimed: "All of them, that's several big tanks." ”

In the opinion of the little second brother, several large tanks are already a very large amount. But this amount is nothing in Hu Wei's eyes.

"Well, I mean, I want a lot, a lot of that. Hu Wei drew a large circle in the air with his hand, emphasizing that he needed a lot of alcohol.

Xiao Er understood what Hu Wei meant, but shook his head and said, "That's impossible, there won't be so many." ”

"Why?" Hu Wei looked puzzled. There isn't a lot of corn in Dali, and I can't eat it anyway, so why can't I have more alcohol?

Through Guò Xiaoer's explanation, Hu Wei understood. It turns out that the process of making alcohol in Dali is very mature, as long as there is enough domestic corn, they can make a lot of high-purity alcohol. But the most critical problem is that they can't preserve the alcohol. Alcohol is very volatile, and even if the alcohol is tightly sealed with mud like wine, it will be all gone in the last fifteen days.

For this, the whole country of Dali does not know how many ways to think of it, but it is impossible to solve this problem. So they don't dare to do too much, they can only make and sell. A tavern with one or two jars is already a lot, and some are just two or three small jars. This is also the reason why there are so many taverns on the street. On average, people have to buy things in three or a few days, and it is not okay to open more stores.

Hu Wei thought about it, but it was another reason. He had been very other before, there was so much alcohol here, why had it never been shipped out for sale. Looks like there's the problem. Without a good and effective storage method, it is impossible to get things out in the first place. It's also in vain, isn't it. ...,

This little second should have very little contact with outsiders, and when he heard that Hu Wei came from outside, he talked a lot. What should be said, what should not be said, in short, what is thought of and what is said, and I keep asking Hu Wei what the outside world is like.

Hu Wei also liked this kid very much, so he chatted with him. Tong guò little second brother here, Hu Wei also knows more things, and the more he talks, the more speculative he becomes.

Unconsciously, Hu Wei and the little second brother chatted for several hours, during which the little two sold a few jars of alcohol, and Hu Wei also inquired casually, and they bought it back to light the lamp.

Such a good trauma medicine is just used to light the lamp, which is too wasteful. Hu Wei secretly decided that he must think of a good way to keep the alcohol out of the place and let them play a greater role.

"Brother Hu, you shouldn't have found a place to live yet. The little second brother suddenly asked Hu Wei.

Hu Wei nodded and said, "Yes." You don't even have an inn here, it's so inconvenient. ”

Xiao Er smiled: "We used to have an inn here, but because no one lived there for a long time, it was closed." If you don't dislike it, why don't you stay with me? ”

"Is this convenient?"

"Of course it's convenient, I'm the only one living here. There are also a few empty rooms. ”

Staying in a tavern, Hu Wei's place to live is solved. But how to pack up the alcohol and transport it away is still a big problem that Hu Wei can't solve.

Hu Wei generally knows several ways to fill alcohol, such as glass bottles. However, the Tianfeng Continent does not have glass, which obviously does not work. Hu Wei's ring is a beautiful jade bottle, which is not a problem with alcohol, but the problem is that the jade bottle is too small, and the price is not much, which is too cost-effective.

"Brother Hu, it's time to eat. "It's rare for Xiao Er to have a friend, and he is enthusiastic about Hu Weina. In the previous conversation, Hu Wei also knew that the name of this little two was Sun Qiang, and his parents died a few years ago, leaving him only this tavern. Selling wine in Dali is not a big deal, and the income is only enough to make ends meet, so Sun Qiang did not have a family.

"Good workmanship. Hu Wei put a piece of meat in his mouth and couldn't help but praise.

"This is what my mother taught me. Sun Qiang looked proud. Before his wife died, the cook was very famous on this street, and whoever had a happy event would definitely ask his wife to help.

While eating, the two chatted again. Sun Qiang not only has alcohol here, but also ordinary wine. It's just that every family in Dali will make their own wine, and basically no one will buy it outside, so Sun Qiang only needs to keep some for himself and don't sell it outside.

"So the kind of wine that can be lit is not something that everyone can make?" Hu Wei heard other meanings from Sun Qiang's words.

"Of course, it's all a secret recipe. Don't look at the many people selling alcohol on this street, there are few who can compare to mine. It's just that I don't produce much wine, so the asking price is a bit high, and I don't know how to buy me if I'm not a regular customer. ”

"Well, business is all like that. Flat and good, is the pursuit of customers. By the way, have you ever thought about outreach?"

Hu Wei has already thought of a lot of ways today, there is no one that can put alcohol in it without volatilization, Hu Wei thought that if it really can't work, he will get the bartender back. Although this still does not solve the problem of keeping up with Ben, it can at least ensure that alcohol will be available for a short time.

"I've thought about it outside, but I've heard that it's chaotic outside, and there's no food going on here, so I'd better stay here." At least alive here. Perhaps because of the early mastery, Zhang Qiang's face showed a maturity that did not match that of his peers.

"Yes, too. Hu Wei agreed. If it weren't for the fact that he had too many responsibilities, Hu Wei would have wanted to live in this small Dali, which is a good place to raise people. ...,

After eating a lot of time in one night, although Sun Qiang was selling wine, the amount of alcohol was very average, so he cleaned up the table and went to bed early.

Hu Wei was still thinking about pretending to be alcohol, which would not be sleepy, and continued to swing.

Dali's morning is very quiet, and Hu Wei walks on the street casually. I thought about it for most of the night last night, but I couldn't think of a way to prevent the alcohol from volatilizing, which made Hu Wei very unhappy. After only a few hours of sleep, I didn't feel sleepy, so I just went out for a walk on the street.

Dali is not a country that likes to wake up early, and there are very few pedestrians on the streets. Walking on the bluestone street, the sound of footsteps can be heard far away.

As he was walking, a ticking sound attracted Hu Wei's attention. After listening carefully, the sound seemed to be coming from another street, and Hu Youting liked the rhythmic sound and decided to go and see what it was.

"It turned out to be carving stones. ”

Following the voice, Hu Wei quickly found the source of the voice. This is also a small shop, and the sound comes from the backyard of the small shop, and the door of the store leads directly to the backyard, and Hu Wei can see the movement inside.

Because people didn't work on the street, Hu Wei didn't plan to go in. Just as he was about to leave, an object caught his eye. At first, Hu Wei thought that he had seen it wrong, but after looking carefully, he was sure that he was not wrong.

What Hu Wei saw was a jar, the object itself was not special, this toy was a very common thing for ordinary people. But the materials used to make jars are not ordinary. It's actually made of stone. The jar made of a whole piece of stone is very beautiful.

"What a skillful workmanship. Hu Wei couldn't help but touch it and secretly praised.

"Guest officer, do you like this jar?" The sound of the blow in the backyard stopped for some time, and there was one more person beside Hu Wei. There is a lot of stone dust on his hands and clothes, and there is no need to ask, he is the one who did the work in the backyard just now.

"Well, I like it, the craftsmanship is really good. Hu Wei smiled.

"Hehe, the guest officer really recognizes the goods. It's not me bragging, there are really few people in the entire Dali country who can compare to me. The stonemason smiled happily.

"Yes. Hu Wei groaned, "Then can you make anything else?"

Hu Wei did not deny that the craftsmanship of this stonemason was good. You must know that with backward technical tools, you have to hollow out the middle of a stone and make it into a jar, which cannot be done without strong skills. It's okay for Hu Wei to fight, let him do this, and he can't do it if he dies.

"It depends on what you do, and I can basically do anything you can say. ”

"It's a big tone. Hu Wei smiled and took out a jade bottle and said, "Look at this, can you do this." Of course, you don't need to make it so small, it's okay to be as big as your jar. ”

The small jade bottle is not very special, the only difficulty is the spiral pattern on the jade bottle. The jade bottle is divided into two parts, one is the bottle body, the other is the bottle cap, the use of spiral pattern, the bottle body and the bottle cap can be very perfectly combined together. If this stonemason can also do this, then Hu Wei has a way to keep the alcohol out.

Stones, like jade, are impermeable to water and wind, and containers made of stone can solve the problem of volatilization of alcohol. Before seeing the stonemason, Hu Wei didn't think of this, and he took out the jade bottle with a flash of inspiration. The main reason was that the stonemason's words were too full, which made Hu Wei feel that he might really have a way, so Hu Wei decided to try.

"Can you show me this thing?" The stonemason is also a person who knows the goods, and he can see at a glance that it is not easy for Hu Wei to take out this jade bottle.

"Absolutely. Hu Wei casually handed the jade bottle to the stonemason, pointed to the small courtyard and asked, "Can I go in and have a look?"

"Absolutely. You feel free. The stonemason's eyes were staring at the jade bottle, and he looked very excited, and he didn't have the heart to pay attention to Hu Wei.

Hu didn't care about it, he had seen this situation a lot. As the so-called is to do a line of love, Hu Wei This jade bottle can be regarded as a fine product of this carved line, and people who do this line must be very fond of it.

Walking to the backyard, Hu Wei saw at a glance that the tools made by this stonemason were different from those of others. Generally speaking, most of the tools used in this industry are iron or bronze. What chisels and hammers should all be made of metal. And here Hu Wei did not see a single piece of metal, and all the qiē tools used by this stonemason were made of stone.

"It's stone on stone. Hu Wei muttered.

In the past, when he was walking the rivers and lakes, Hu Wei's master once told him that there are some stone carvers with a high level who can use stone as a tool to carve stones, commonly known as stone hitting stone. Hu Wei has always wanted to see it with his own eyes, but unfortunately there are too few such masters, and Hu Wei has never been able to see it in person. I didn't expect that in this small Dali country, Hu Wei actually saw one.

"Where did you come from? The stonemason suddenly rushed in front of Hu Wei with an excited face.

"You know?"
