On the way back, the two of them were silent. Su Mi had a lot on her mind, while Yang Yi was thinking about how to deal with Liu An. It was too naive to think that he could end it with a song of conquest. However, it was not wise to go against an official of the imperial court as a High Scholar at this time. He had to plan slowly.
"Uncle." Su Mi hesitated." That piece of paper of yours…?”
Yang Yi took out the special edict written by Zhao Ji and smiled."Sister-in-law, do you want to know how this came about?”
Su Mi looked at the slightly crumpled Xuan paper and took it from Yang Yi's hands. She said with heartache,""How did you make it like this?”
"Uh..." Yang Yi rubbed his head." I've been putting it on my chest and forgot to take it."”
Su Mi said," You, if someone else got the official's handwriting, they would want to worship it and pass it down as a family heirloom. Why don't you cherish it at all?"”
Yang Yi smiled helplessly. He didn't think too much about it. However, Su Mi was right. It would be a good thing to keep these things well and treat them as family heirlooms in the future.
Seeing that he was silent, Su Mi said,""Uncle, you haven't told me how you got it.”
Yang Yi suddenly understood and told him everything that happened that day. When he heard that the official had agreed to his request and he only wanted the handwriting, Su Mi couldn't help but say,"Uncle, you shouldn't have wanted this. An official's promise is worth a thousand gold…"
Yang Yi smiled and interrupted her,""Hey, hey, I think this is pretty good, haha.”
After saying that, she walked to the front.
Su Mi stomped her feet and looked at the thin but tall back in front of her. She shook her head helplessly." Uncle..." Then, he followed.
......
The next day, Yang Yi and Su Mi went to the carpenter's place, took the boiler, and went to the winery.
He bought ten catties of grain wine. The alcohol was very light and had a hint of sweetness.
He poured the wine into the pot and covered it with the steamer.
Soon, the wine boiled and turned into steam from the steamer. Yang Yi fetched the well water and poured it on.
When the first steaming was over, there were only three catties of white wine left. Because of the retortion, the current white wine was not much different from the transparent white wine in his previous life.
However, Yang Yi took a sip. The taste was very light. After he steamed for the third time, there was only a pound of wine left. He took another sip. As expected, it was much spicier.
Su Mi saw that he was busy and couldn't help but say,""Uncle, is this useful?"
"Of course it's useful. Sister-in-law, try it." Yang Yi smiled.”
Su Mi did not refuse. The wine that was popular in the Song Dynasty was very bland. She picked up the wine bowl and took a sip.
Puff!
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Su Mi bent down and kept coughing. Yang Yi patted her back.
"Uncle, what wine is this?" Su Mi asked after a long time. It's so choking."
Her fair face was flushed red, like a fine porcelain that had been stained with cinnabar.
"How does it taste?" Yang Yi asked with a smile.
Su Mi rolled her eyes at him. After pondering for a while, she said seriously,""Once it enters my throat, it's burning like a fire. When it enters my stomach, it's like a knife scraping.”
"Good name. Just like what sister-in-law said, we'll call it Burning Knife."”
Su Mi was speechless. Were all names so casual?
"This wine is so strong. Will anyone drink it?”Su Mi said worriedly.
Yang Yi smiled and said," Of course there is. Everyone has their own preferences. There will always be people who like this one. Even if they don't like it, it doesn't matter. I still have other wines.”
He was referring to the secret recipe in his mind. This so-called burning knife was just a wine he casually bought to increase its purity. If he brought real good wine over, wouldn't it be called Bejewelled Nectar?
However, the fragrance of wine was afraid of the deep alley. Their newly opened winery naturally could not compare to those old wineries.
A few days later.
Yang Yi was sweating profusely as he divided the wine jars. He had not been idle these few days to start brewing the wine according to the recipe in his mind. The ingredients required for the secret recipe of these wines were strange and strange. He did not have enough money on hand, so he could only find two of the most common wines.
One was called Golden Pulp Awakening, and the other was called Sweet Candy Fragrance.
He tasted it himself. It tasted pretty good, especially after it was purified. It was not any worse than the wine from his previous life. It should be enough to deal with these Song people.
"Uncle, how much are these?" Su Mi asked.”
Yang Yi smiled and said,"Burning a knife costs 100 coins. The Golden Pulp Awakening and Glutinous Fragrance are the same."
"Ah?"
Su Mi covered her mouth and exclaimed," So expensive?!”
It was no wonder that she had shouted that it was expensive. Ordinary grain and wine were only ten wen per catty, but this burning knife was ten times more expensive!
Not to mention the golden liquid awakening and sugar incense, it was simply a sky-high price!
Yang Yi's lips twitched. He still had more expensive ones that he couldn't afford. Otherwise, he would let the people of Song feel the fear of being dominated by high-grade alcohol.
Of course, other than this, there were all kinds of aphrodisiac wine. Although he did not need these, men were always interested in studying these things.
