F * ck!
So that was how it was!
When Shen Shan Zhang brought out the wine, Li You didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Indeed, there was no top-notch wine in King Qi's manor. Otherwise, he would have brought it up yesterday to celebrate his promotion to King Qi and Prefecture Overseer.
However, Shen Shan Chang did bring a porcelain jar of wine over. This porcelain jar was really familiar!
Cooking wine!
That's right, this wine was the cooking wine produced by the seasoning ring!
This thing is used for cooking. Can I drink it directly?
However, Li You had overestimated the taste of the Tangs.
Shen Shan Chang was one of the best chefs in the Great Tang. If he said that this wine was top-grade wine, then it was top-grade wine!
In this day and age, due to technical limitations, there were many impurities in wine. Moreover, people would deliberately add various spices and drugs to the wine, such as the famous realgar wine.
Therefore, the good wine of the Tang Dynasty had many similarities with cooking wine. The biggest difference was that the good wine at this time did not have the accumulation of the later two thousand years!
The moment the cooking wine was served, everyone was shocked.
"Good wine, it's really good wine!"
"What spices are added to this? It was really refreshing and memorable!”
"May I know the name of this wine? I…I want to compose a poem!"
"Is what I drank in the past called wine? It's simply swill!"
"This is bad, this is bad. After tasting such good wine, it's hard to swallow other wines. What should we do?”
……
The ministers praised the wine.
However, this praise quickly turned into a fight.
"This old man is the oldest, how many more days can I drink? Can't you give way to this old man?"
"You're old, and I'm still sick. Who will die first?"
"What's the point of comparing ages? If you want to compete, let's compete in merit!"
"Another mouthful! Give me more. Old Shen, don't be so stingy. I don't believe that it's really gone!"
……
It couldn't be helped. The main ingredient of the cooking wine was yellow wine, so it was only a dozen degrees. Li Youcai gave Shen Shan Zhang ten catties of wine, and each person could only get two or three taels. How could it be enough for these drunkards to drink?
After drinking the wine, not only did everyone's addiction not disappear, but their cravings became even more active.
At first, the ministers were still arguing verbally, but later on, they rolled up their arms and sleeves and almost started fighting!
Seeing that it was not a problem, Li Er reprimanded loudly,"Stop! They were all ministers of the country. How could they fight over a mouthful of wine?!”
"It's not a mouthful of wine, it's a mouthful of peerless wine! Whoever dares to snatch it from me, I will follow! Of course, Your Majesty is an exception!”
This wine was too delicious. Yuchi Gong was not stingy and actually started to argue with Li Er. If not for the last sentence, Li Er would have been furious.
Li Er took a deep breath and said,"There's no need to fight for peerless wine." Have you forgotten that it's better to teach someone to fish than to teach them to fish?”
"What fish…beast fish?" Yuchi Gong's face was filled with confusion.
Cheng Yaojin understood and said,""I understand now! What was the use of snatching the wine in front of him? The most important thing was to know where this wine came from. Or rather, how was it brewed? At that time, wouldn't he be able to get as much fine wine as he wanted?”
"Exactly." Li Er looked at Li You and asked,"You 'er, where did you buy this wine from?" It's better to share the joy with everyone than to share the joy alone. Let's tell everyone.”
Tell?
How?
Could it be that this wine was automatically produced by the seasoning ring?
"Actually, this wine is nothing." Li You thought quickly. As long as everyone is willing to wait, in ten days to half a month, I can brew wine that is ten times better than this.”
"What is it? A wine that was ten times better than this? Are you sure?" Li Er's attention was immediately diverted and he let out a cry of surprise!
If the wine in front of him was already so delicious, how delicious would it be if it was ten times better? Even the immortal wine in the sky was probably only so much, right?
Of course, Li You was sure.
The method was also very simple: Distillation!
The Tang Dynasty was a low-alcohol wine, and so was the cooking wine in front of him. As long as the original wine was distilled, it would be able to obtain high-grade wine.
When these country bumpkins in Tang Chao tasted the taste of high-alcohol wine, they would understand that drinking low-alcohol wine in the past was no different from drinking water.
As for the specific craftsmanship?
Wasn't it just evaporating and cooling?
As long as he had a concept, with the intelligence of the Great Tang's craftsmen, there was no need for Li You to worry.
"Yes, I'm sure." Li You nodded.”
"That's good!"
After perfectly solving the plan of the Great Tang Bank, even if Li You said that he could ascend to heaven, Li Er would still be skeptical, let alone a small matter like brewing wine.
"Then I'll go to the Qi Mansion again in half a month to taste your wine," Li Er said happily.”
"We'll come too!"
"I didn't expect King Qi to be skilled in both literature and martial arts as well as wine. He truly is omnipotent!”
"Today's trip to the Qi King's mansion has yielded many rewards! I'm really happy! Old Shen, serve the wine! No matter what kind of wine it was, as long as it was wine!”
"Yes, we have to drink well. We won't go home until we're drunk!”
……
It perfectly solved the matter of everyone investing in the Tang Bank and tasted the best wine and food. Not only that, but they were about to taste wine that was ten times better than this. The scene was instantly filled with joy.
Everyone did not pick any wine. When the wine was drained, they let loose and did not return until they were drunk!
