Chapter 107: Black Sand Clay Pot
)
As mentioned last time, the inn in this Qingniu Town came to a line of Taoists, and this Taoist, at a glance, knew that they were from other places, and their Taoist clothes were woven with gold and silk, bright and eye-catching.
The innkeeper was accustomed to these guests coming and going, and he knew at a glance that these were distinguished guests. With a smile on his face, he stepped forward and asked, "How many, stay in the hotel or eat?"
I saw that the leader of the Dao Chief, with a long beard and chest-length beard, carrying a jade-inlaid sword, nodded and replied: "Bring us seven first-class guest rooms, and the wine and food will be served according to the best!"
After the chief finished speaking, a middle-aged man next to him stepped forward and threw a silver ingot on the table, which seemed to be a hundred taels. When the innkeeper saw the silver tael, his eyes lit up, and he thought that these bull noses were really generous, so he carefully put away the silver taels, so he called Xiao Er and took the Taoist priests to the Tianzi room upstairs.
Seeing that the middle-aged man seemed to be these Taoist disciples, he made a few orders below and arranged meals. At this time, the middle-aged man tasted the Wang family knife in the wine jar, and couldn't help frowning: "Boss, this wine is not good, give us a better one!"
The innkeeper nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, I wanted to change the wine for a long time, but because of the old transaction of more than ten years, I am embarrassed to speak, I will change the aging wine of the Sun family for you!"
At this time, Fu Xiaowa came to send wine, and saw that the innkeeper was full of joy, and swept away the sad look of that day.
"Boss, I've brought you wine!" Fu Xiaowa hugged the big wine jar and entered the inn.
When the innkeeper saw the Fu frog, he knew that the Fu frog had come back and helped lose money, so he remembered it vividly. However, the innkeeper's face was showing some embarrassment at the moment.
As if hesitating for a long time, the boss said, "Baby, uncle wants to tell you something!"
"What's the matter, shopkeeper, please tell me!"
While speaking, Fu Xiaowa had already removed the wine jar from the wooden cart, and the innkeeper said: "This wine, you, you don't have to move it down......
"What's wrong?" Fu Xiaowa stopped moving.
The innkeeper said tactfully: "Ahem, that's, that's right, this wine doesn't seem to be very popular with the guests now, and now there is a new Sunjia winery in the town, although the price is more expensive, but the taste is very good, I, I decided to use the wine of that winery in the future, so ......"
Fu Xiaowa had already heard the meaning of the shopkeeper, this inn was the largest sales point of the Wang Family Winery, and if it was lost, it would affect the livelihood of the winery.
Fu Xiaowa said: "This wine, we can sell it cheaper......
The innkeeper said: "This, it's not a matter of price, to be honest, the taste of the current Wang family knife is not as good as before!"
When Fu Xiaowa heard about it, he also knew that there was no way, the problem was in himself, and he couldn't just stuff the wine that people didn't want to sell. He nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go back and see if there is a way to improve the quality of this wine, and ask the shopkeeper to give it another chance!"
"Okay, if the taste of the Wang family's burning knives can go back to the original, I will still use your wine!" the shopkeeper nodded.
Fu Xiaowa transported the wine jar back to the wine jar, and when Wang Gui and his wife heard about this, they couldn't help but sigh lightly and shook their heads helplessly.
The old man Wang Gui said: "This Wang family burns the knife, it was indeed an excellent wine before, but it fell to me, it has been unrecognizable, first of all, this wine must be cellared in the wine cellar for 7749 days, before it can be aged and flavored, and our two old bones are already weak, but I am afraid that after a while, the work of winemaking is already inadequate!"
When Fu Xiaowa heard this, he couldn't think of a way, and Wang Gui Lao'er continued: "Actually, the real Wang family burns knives, which is far from this, and there are more processes that have not been carried out, for example, this wine originally needed three kinds of grain, one is rice, one is sorghum, and there is a kind of grain called barley, and now, there is no way to find this thing called highland barley!"
Qing barley, this Fu Xiaowa has never heard of it, he said: "Can't you order from the local grain merchants?"
"I tried it many years ago, but no one was willing to help with the purchase, Gu said that it was because the land was far away, the road was difficult and dangerous, no one was willing to take this job, and it was expensive, and we couldn't afford it, right?" Wang Gui Lao'er finished speaking, his face was full of helplessness.
"If you find barley, can you make a real Wang family burning knife?"
Wang Gui Lao'er shook his head and said: "The real Wang family burning knife, in fact, since the ancestors, no one can make it, because the focus is the wine medicine, this wine medicine is actually the secret recipe of each kind of wine, each kind of wine medicine fermented wine, the taste is different, the wine medicine used in the Wang family burning knife, there is also a secret recipe, containing more than 100 kinds of herbs, the herbs can be found, but the only thing missing is the black sand clay pot, this black sand clay pot is the top grade of making zuò wine medicine, which determines the quality of each wine medicine, which also indirectly affects the quality of the wine!"
Fu Xiaowa nodded as if he didn't understand, he couldn't imagine that there were so many ways to make wine, no wonder there were so many grades of wine in the world, this is the reason.
"Then this black sand clay pot is not very expensive?"
"This thing is not expensive, but it is rarer than Zisha, and it is a collector, and they are reluctant to sell it!"
"Where can I buy it?"
"As far as I know, this black sand clay pot is only handed down by the ancestors of a family on the side of the bridge in Qingniu Town, and I don't know if it has been sold now, but this thing is only needed by the wine shop, mainly to see if the family is reluctant to sell, once the Wang family also asked someone to ask, but it was fruitless!" Wang Gui Lao'er regretted.
"Then I'll ask!" Fu Xiaowa said, then stood up, and said that he would do it, he wanted to restructure the flavor of the Wang family's burning knife.
That Wang Gui Lao'er estimated the price, this jar is worth about one hundred taels of silver, and Wang Gui Lao'er only has these savings. If they can be bought, they are valuable.
Fu Xiaowa took the silver and came to the bridge in Qingniu Town. It is said that the bridge side of Qingniu Town is a place to sell rouge water, and some storytellers open here, and some jokes often open stalls here. In general, this is the cultural and leisure place of Qingniu Town.
I saw that today's market is also quite lively, playing monkeys, shadow puppet shows, all kinds of candy people selling, and children with pigtails and jumping happily.
At this time, Luo Xinyi, the leader of the Green Wolf Gang, was stroking his beard, nodding, and watching the shadow puppet show, which was his little strange little habit.
But seeing this dignified leader of the Green Wolf Gang, no one knew it, and the people next to him cheered without knowing it, if these people who were watching the play knew that it was Luo Xinyi, the leader of the Green Wolf Gang, they would be so frightened that they threw their pants.
