Chapter 58: Winemaking
In the past few days, Li Ling has been tinkering with the matter of winemaking.
The brewing method in this world is still the old method, fermentation.
The resulting wine is not only impure in taste, but also particularly cloudy, with a low degree and a faint sour taste.
There is no comparison with the aromatic, mellow and spicy wine of the previous life.
Let's do it again, bring the wine of the previous life to this world, and benefit the majority of alcoholics.
There is such a big difference between the sake of the previous life and the world of this world, and the difference lies in the process of making wine.
In the previous life, there was an additional step of distillation, in which the impurities of the liquor were removed by distillation after fermentation, and then filtered, purified, and a series of processes were used to make that kind of pure and rich liquor.
In his previous life, Li Ling had never made wine, and he didn't know the specific process, and he didn't know anything about it, and he only knew the general principle.
If you want to make a better wine than this world, you can only experiment step by step and practice to learn the truth.
......
It took him more than ten days, and with unremitting efforts, he finally made that kind of clear and transparent wine.
Take a sip to leave your lips and teeth fragrant.
"I'm a genius, and this wine is better than most of the wine I've ever drunk in my previous life. ”
Li Ling was complacent, but he didn't know that he was just getting started with winemaking, because a lot of the fake wine he drank in his previous life was blended fake wine, and the raw materials were not good, of course, it couldn't compare to the wine made from pure grain now.
I remember that I promised Liu Kai to let him taste the wine he brewed, and Li Ling called Liu Kai at the moment.
"Ah, brother, what a strong smell of wine. ”
Liu Kaigang pushed the door into the room, smelled the rich aroma of wine, and his eyes lit up, "Li Ling, did you call me here to let me taste the wine you brewed?" ”
"On the table, pour yourself. ”
Liu Kai couldn't wait to pour a cup, first took a sip gently, the light in his eyes flashed, and then he took the cup and drank it all.
He closed his eyes and savored it, his face full of intoxication.
Li Ling: "How is it? Is it better than what you brought me that day?"
Liu Kai opened his eyes, shook his head, and said: "It's normal, it's almost the same as that day, I didn't taste it well just now, so let's take it back and taste it carefully, and I'll give you some advice tomorrow, you'd better brew ten more jars and eight jars, and I'll be your taster at that time." ”
He picked up the jar of wine on the table and left.
Li Ling couldn't cry or laugh, this Liu Kai is a living treasure on weekdays, everyone's pistachios, and they actually invented the modern term 'wine taster'.
Liu Kai ran to the door, opened the door and ran out, for fear that Li Ling would regret it, so he walked out of the distance and did not forget to remind Li Ling: "Li Ling, don't forget to let me be your taster after you make wine." ”
Liu Kai jumped up and down holding the jar of wine, and almost collided with a person without checking, and when he saw the person who came hurriedly, he said, "Ah, Miss Feng, I'm sorry, I didn't see it clearly." ”
"Walk carefully and watch the road in the future. Bai Feng saw the wine jar he was holding in his hand at a glance, and wondered, "What are you holding?"
"Uh, nothing?" Liu Kai hurriedly put the jar behind him, and reluctantly smiled: "This is a snake I caught outside, raised in the jar, very fierce, Miss Feng, stay away, don't hurt you." ”
Bai Feng snorted, smelled the faint aroma of wine in the air, looked at Liu Kai who wanted to cover up, and sank his face, "Is it really a snake?" ”
After she finished speaking, she stepped out, walked around behind Liu Kai, and reached out to snatch the wine jar from his hand.
When the jar was opened, the aroma of wine was overflowing, and under the reflection of the moonlight, the liquid in the jar was clear and transparent, like a clear spring.
It's just that smelling the rich aroma of wine is also a pleasure, Liu Kai took a deep breath, and his saliva was about to fall.
"This is the snake you caught?" Bai Feng asked as he stared at Liu Kai.
Liu Kai frowned, so he had to recruit from the truth, saying that he was forcibly taken from Li Ling.
Listening to the wine brewed by Li Ling, Bai Feng's expression moved, and he said with a straight face: "This jar of wine belongs to me." ”
If it was in normal times, or something else, Liu Kai might not want it, but at this time, he said with a bitter face: "Miss Feng, this is my thing, you can't rob it openly, Li Ling still has it, you have such a good relationship, as long as you open your mouth, he won't give you ten altars and eight altars immediately, why bother to rob me." ”
"Smack!"
Bai Feng's face turned red, slapped on the top of Liu Kai's head, gritted his teeth and said, "If I hear you say that I have a relationship with Li Ling in the future, I will cut your tongue for you." ”
"Okay, I promise not to say it again, you give me this jar of wine, I got it by robbery and trickery. Liu Kai nodded again and again, the hero does not suffer the loss in front of him, and now he agrees to whatever Miss Feng says.
"I remember that you are going to Tianshui City tomorrow to deliver a batch of papers, and you still have to drive a carriage, and you can't drink, so this jar of wine will be placed here for the time being. ”
Bai Feng ignored Liu Kai and turned away.
Liu Kai wanted to cry without tears, but he was helpless.
......
"Good wine! I didn't expect such good wine in the world. ”
In the hall, Bai Qi drank all the wine that Bai Feng forcibly snatched from Liu Kai, and couldn't help but praise.
He poured a full glass of wine and handed it to Bai Ting, "Third brother, you can also taste this wine." ”
Bai Ting took the drink, and as soon as he entered his mouth, he felt a spicy breath rushing straight to his brain, and then his chest and abdomen were like a fire, his lips and teeth were full of fragrance, and the pores on his body seemed to be opened.
"Sure enough, it's good wine. Bai Ting did not hesitate to praise, "This is much better than any wine I have ever drunk, and you see, this wine is crystal clear, without even the slightest impurity, and it is completely different from the wine we have seen before, and it is even more valuable." ”
"The man who made this wine must be a master. Bai Qi smiled and asked Bai Feng, "Third sister, who made this wine?" I really want to meet him and beg him to give me a few more jars, I'm afraid I won't be able to drink such a good wine in the future." ”
Bai Feng said: "Sixth brother, I feel that you didn't like wine very much before?"
"That's because the wine is bland and tasteless, and drinking that wine is the same as drinking water. Bai Qi couldn't wait to say: "Third sister, don't sell Guanzi, tell me who made this wine." ”
Bai Feng: "It's Li Ling." ”
"It's him. Bai nodded, "No wonder, third sister, what did he mean by giving you wine?"
Bai Feng saw Bai Qi and Bai Ting's strange eyes, and knew that they had misunderstood, so he couldn't help but pause, and said angrily: "Third brother, sixth brother, what do you think, although this wine is brewed by Li Ling, I got it from Liu Kai..."
After listening to Bai Feng's explanation, Bai Qi and Bai Ting were suddenly surprised.
Bai Ting muttered: "If he can give us this method of brewing wine to the Bai family, I am afraid that the profit will be higher than that of papermaking." ”
Hearing this, Bai Qi and Bai Feng also nodded at the same time, and Dasheng felt the same way.
Bai Feng said at this time: "Let's not think about this method of brewing wine first, let's solve the matter of the three sects of Hongxuanmen first." ”
Bai Qi: "I have already sent someone to ask Uncle Meng for help in this matter, Uncle Meng is in a high position, the position of the general, as long as he speaks, the three sects will not dare to make it difficult for our Bai family." By the way, Uncle Meng's favorite thing is to drink a few glasses, and the next time I go to the capital to do business, I will bring Uncle Meng a few jars of such wine, and he will definitely be very happy. ”
He said and faced Bai Feng, and said with a smile: "Third sister, this matter is entrusted to you, you go and ask him for a few altars, I think he will never refuse." ”
Bai Feng looked at him coldly, "If you want to go, I won't go anyway, your face is bigger, and you have more face." ”
