My Open Life [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 381 No. 1 wine in the world
Tomorrow is the day for the family to hold a new house wine. Early in the morning, the Chen family was all dressed up and rushed to Liujia Village. Father Chen met many people from the same village in the village. Everyone saw that their family was dressed so well. Understand what this is going to do.
An old man with a hoe on his back asked Chen's father, "Lao Liu, what are you all doing?"
"Uncle Yao, Xiaoxiao's family has built a new house. Tomorrow, we will have a new house wine. Our family will go over early today to help."
"That's great, Xiaoxiao got up, how is she doing now?" Uncle Yao also knew that the daughter of Lao Liu's family was a widow, and life was not easy for a woman with two children.
"Okay, this is not a new house, and let our family go there."
"Being able to build a new house seems to be doing well. Tell her that if someone bullies her, she will come back and tell her. Her surname is Chen, and she can't be bullied at will."
"Got it, thank you Uncle Yao."
"Thank you, let's go!"
The people around didn't care much, thinking it was just an adobe house, but even so, in their hearts, they thought that you were already popular, and it was not easy for a widow with two children to be able to build a house.
The spacious and bright brick and tile houses are clean and tidy everywhere. Each room has a kang cabinet, chairs and tables. There are brand new quilts on the kang cabinet. The walls on the kang are covered with coarse cloth, so people can sit against the wall.This time Liu Sangen and Liu Xiaoying both moved in together. Xiaoying and Sangen couldn’t live in the house they moved in yesterday. Today, the Chen family came and they might have to live at home. Both brothers and sisters knew that they would live in the eldest brother’s house for two days. He just packed up his clothes and moved them over and locked them in the kang cabinet.
"Xiaoying, do you like your room?"
Xiaoxiao looked at Xiaoying's dumbfounded look, and asked her softly, with warm eyes, Xiaoying looked at such a big room that belonged to her, and nodded stupidly, and finally asked in disbelief, "Second sister-in-law, is this really true?" Is it my room?"
"Yes, we Xiaoying will live here from now on, okay?"
"Okay. Just can't believe it."
"Well, I can't believe I'm living here."
"Well, second sister-in-law, I will eat less and cook more in the future. I will do whatever you ask me to do. Don't drive me and third brother away." Xiaoying said such a sentence suddenly.
"Why did you drive us Xiaoying away? From now on, as long as we Xiaoying are obedient, the second sister-in-law will not drive you and Sangen away."
"Well, I am obedient, I have always been obedient."
Mrs. Xu also helped with the move. They had visited the new house before, but the feeling of emptiness after the arrangement was very different from before.
Mrs. Xu helped Xiaoxiao's family put things away, and Xiao Laifu's family also scrubbed and cleaned everywhere. There are still three cows in the house, and there is also a sundry room. The Xiao family members perform their own duties.
Mrs. Xu found Xiaoxiao, came over and said, "Xiaoxiao, everything is packed now, is the chef from the county coming today?"
"Come on, it should be here soon, brother is going to buy vegetables, maybe he will come with the chef in time."
Xiaoxiao hired a chef specially for the banquet. This kind of chef is a chef who goes from house to house. There are also some in the countryside, but the one Xiaoxiao invited has a good reputation, good craftsmanship and good manners. Feeling that she wouldn't cheat me, I took the address to invite her. Two days, [-] Wen, it's really not cheap.
Early in the morning, Liu Sangen and Liu Dagen went to the city to buy food, seasoning, meat, grain, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and wine. At this time, the alcohol content was not high, it was all low alcohol degree.Xiaoxiao just came up with the idea of brewing her own wine. This is a craft, and it will be a craft after thousands of years.
The courtyard of the house was cleaned up very cleanly. The Chen family arrived early. This is because the cook and the vegetables have not been bought yet.
"Father, mother, elder brother, elder sister-in-law, second elder brother, second sister-in-law, come in and have a look." Xiao Xiao went outside to greet her natal family, Xiao Lihua, daughter of Xiao Laifu's family, was playing with Min Min, and Min Min recognized her The grandparents of the Chen family stepped forward and shouted happily. Xiao Lihua was older than Minmin. Seeing Minmin talking affectionately with the Chen family, she hurried back and told Xiaoxiao, "Ma'am, the guests are here. They have already arrived in the village."
"Ewha, how do you know that?"
"The girl called her grandpa and grandma, and the slaves knew that it was the old man and the old lady."
"Ewha is so smart, let your mother prepare the cooking, and tell the old man and uncle that they are here to eat, go quickly."
"Yes."
. . . . . . . . . .
Xiaoxiao held her mother's hand and walked inside, "Xiaoxiao, why did this house have so many rooms, and it cost a lot of money!"
"Mother, I need a lot of money, don't worry, my daughter, I can still earn money."
"It's good if you can earn, and don't work too hard. Didn't the nanny say that embroidery hurts your eyes? As long as the life at home is decent, you still have to take good care of your body."
"Understood, mother. Let me introduce the house to your second elder."
"Okay, okay, okay, my son is over the top."
Chen's mother was very happy to see such a nice brick and tile house.As happy as I live in such a house.
The whole family sat together lively, chatting and talking, and Father Chen was relieved to see that his daughter was doing well.
Xiaoxiao said to Chen's father and two elder brothers: "Father, my daughter has a little ability now. I think I didn't honor you two elders well before. Now I have a chance. If you have time, you and your mother will come to my daughter." Can you stay for a few days?"
What can Chen's father say, his daughter's filial piety, "Okay, come and live when you have nothing to do, now the family has a place to live."
"Father, eldest brother, second brother, I didn't make a lot of money. You have seen the situation at home. My children and I are orphans and widowed. It is not very safe. I bought a family when I thought about building a house. I also bought a house. I'm not that lazy, I bought this family because there are grown men in the family, and the population is so large that Xiaoxiao should not dare to make up his mind. I can't bother the elder brother next door for everything. "
"It's time to buy it, or if your orphans and widows live in such a big house, someone really should make a decision."
Breakfast and lunch are prepared by Xiao Laifu's family. They all taste good. It's rare for the Chen family to eat such good food. They eat with their stomachs open, but no one looks particularly ugly, so I still pay attention. The goodwill is much better.
In the afternoon, led by Xiao Laifu, the Chen family looked at the cows that Xiaoxiao was going to give away, as well as the fields and hills that Xiaoxiao bought. They stayed at Xiaoxiao's house at night, and they had already found relatives to look after them, as well as the chickens at home. There are people taking care of them, and I don’t worry too much. It’s like this in the countryside, helping each other.
At night, Xiaoxiao took her Minmin and Xiaojie to sleep, and the rest of the rooms were full.
The next day was Xinwujiu. Every household in the entire Liujia Village sent people, and the Chen family also helped to greet and do things. The children of Liu Dagen's family and Liu Dagen's family are doing very well. They are older and more sensible.It really stopped the two people who wanted to take advantage of it.
After the lively banquet, Xiaoxiao taught Xiaoying and girls from several close relatives, including her niece, how to embroider at home every day.
Liu Sangen went to study in a private school at Xiaoxiao's insistence. He was a bit late at this age. Of course, Xiaoxiao didn't expect much from him. If you are cheated, you can still find a daughter (son) from a good family.
. . . . . . . . . .
"Xiaoying, Minmin, Xiuxiu (Xiaoxiao's niece of her mother's family) I have taught you what I learned today. You should practice hard one by one, you know."
"Third Brother (Third Uncle), we will practice hard. It's great now that we can still learn to read. I told you that many people envy me." Xiaoying's brother and sister learned to read, and everyone in the village knew about it. There are people who say everything. Some people say that Xiaoxiao burned it with money, and some people say that Xiaoxiao is a fool.Xiuxiu now lives at Xiaoxiao's house to learn embroidery, and also learns to read characters together. Sangen has so many students at once. He is very responsible. He teaches them every day when he comes back. He teaches what he has learned. There are also the two nephews of the elder brother's family, he will also teach, but he needs to teach alone, he is quite busy alone, Xiaoxiao doesn't say anything, let Sangen work alone.
That's fine, teaching him one more time will deepen his impression. It's not in vain to pay for him to study. It's useful, and Liu Dagen is also happy. Of course, he wants his son to learn to read, and he doesn't have this condition. Now The younger brother and sister provide for the third child to study, and he can follow suit. This is very good. There is another cow in the family. When there is nothing to do, he can earn a little money to subsidize the family when he goes to the market.Usually, the children of the family go up to the mountains to herd cattle, and my father takes good care of the cattle.
. . . . . . .
In the blink of an eye, three springs and autumns have passed, and Xiaoxiao's family is no longer what it used to be. They have indeed become rich, but they have been relatively low-key. They bought several hills, all of which are valuable trees and fruit trees, and bought them all next to the house where they live. , and built a workshop, every room here is extremely clean, and a large cave was dug in the back, and the gate was installed, and there were specially customized large altars inside.
Xiaoxiao took out fruit saplings from Weilan, and planted all kinds of them on the top of the hill.Passion fruit wine can be brewed this year, Passion Alcohol.
The Chen family also came to work, and many people were invited from the village. Passion alcohol is made for a year, and the fruits of different seasons are brewed separately, and then blended with special things separately, which is passion alcohol.
In the forest, people from Liujia Village and Chenjiawan are all busy picking fruit. Each person has a pair of special scissors. Men and some women pick fruit in the forest, while some women clean the outside of the fruit at home and drain it.
After the drained fruit is peeled, the peeled fruit is put into a special wooden barrel to ferment, and the layers are exquisite.Xiaoxiao also personally smeared a layer of special things inside each wooden barrel.
The rest are done by others, these are not the key skills, when Xiaoxiao finally sealed the cover, she dripped some spiritual springs herself, Xiaoxiao planned to save half of the first year's Passion Alcohol, and sell it after a few years, at that time The taste is absolutely good.In the past three years, Xiaoxiao often went to the mountains and forests at night to cast spells, all of which were Spirit Rain and Earth Rejuvenation.
No one in Liujia Village and Chenjiawan went out to find work this year. Everyone worked at Xiaoxiao's house, which was better than going to the county town to find work. The wages were high. Although the work was tiring, it was not too heavy work.
Standing in front of Xiaoxiao, Xiao Laifu lowered his head to report the situation: "Madam, the wooden barrels at home may need to be re-ordered. You can see how much you want to order."
"Well, let's order a thousand wooden barrels first. The quality of these barrels must be good, otherwise it won't work. There are also shops in the county town where you can ask someone to pick them up, and they will be able to open in a few days."
"it is good."
The family invited a master to teach Minmin and Xiaojie, and several other children followed suit.
The family is very busy, with people coming and going every day, Xiaoxiao is also very busy, and has to do a lot of things personally every day, but this is all staged.
Finally, when the first batch of Passion Alcohol went on sale, there was a free tasting on the first day. There was a long queue in front of the store, and everyone came to taste a small cup. If you think it tastes good, you can go in and buy it again.
The store clerk, Xiaoxiao hired someone to explain and train them after buying them.Clothes are also uniform.
"Madam, this is a day's income, and there are detailed accounts, please have a look."
"Let's put it down, I'll see later." Xiaoxiao has been looking for opportunities to learn to read along with her in the past few years, but the original owner was born in poverty, so of course she must find a way to learn a few words to solve her trouble of not being able to read.
"Yes, and the Zhang family in the county wants to buy a lot of Baixiangchun, and wants to talk to Madam in person."
"Okay, let's make an appointment and ask Mr. Zhang to bring his family to the house. There are people in the Zhang family in the capital, right?"
"Yes, it seems that Master Zhang's eldest brother is an official in the capital, and he seems to be a third-rank official."
"Do you know what it's about?"
"It's not very clear, but there are rumors that it is the censor."
"..."
Xiaoxiao waved to let people go down.I quietly read the account book by myself.
Now everything is on the right track at home, Xiaoxiao just needs to give orders at home, look at the books and income, as for many other things, she entrusts her three elder brothers and one younger brother of the Liu and Chen families to do things. They are all ready-made, just teach them to wipe things and release spirit springs. Only they have these things, and they can’t get them. Not all passion alcohol releases spirit spring water. Passion alcohol is also divided into high, middle and low grades. Only those that are mellow and high-end can be put in, and the amount of things that are applied varies as well as the quality.
Since passion alcohol went on the market and started to sell, the business has been very good, and there is basically no need to worry about the problems of customers. Xiaoxiao opened a store not because she wanted to do retail business, but because she mainly relied on merchants or rich families to buy it. She never thought about starting a business. The whole world knows about it, and they don't want to make the world's wealth. No matter which dynasty, as long as they are greedy and think about making the world's wealth, they will not end well in the end. Xiaoxiao is not afraid, but she is not willing to work so hard to make money.
Passion alcohol needs to go through several processes before it can be brewed. Xiaoxiao will keep some of it every year, and the newly brewed passion alcohol will be stored in the cave behind.
Master Zhang of the Zhang family has established his own brand in the capital. Passion alcohol sold exclusively by the Zhang family is very popular. In the past few years, Xiaoxiao has continued to use grain to make wine, but it is only a small-scale brewing, but the quality is very good. Boutique line.
Mrs. Xu came to Xiaoxiao's house early in the morning and asked her to discuss something, "Sister-in-law, can you come here early?"
"Xiaoxiao, that's how it is. Yesterday your elder brother was nagging me that the three of them are old enough to see each other. He has them all, and it will be too late if they don't. And Xiaoying is sixteen, it's time to get married."
"Yo, that's it. Sister-in-law, don't worry. I asked him Sangen. He probably has someone he likes. He said to wait. I was thinking about when I should talk to my elder brother about this. I have always kept Xiaoying's marriage in mind. Mrs. Zhang told me last year that her natal family has a nephew who is two years older than Xiaoying. After being admitted as a scholar, I asked someone to come to propose marriage. She likes Xiaoying very much, has met her many times, and told her natal brother and sister-in-law about it. I was thinking about waiting for Mrs. Zhang to give me a message before I told you."
"Oh, it would be great if he really became a scholar. Xiaoying also has a good family."
"Isn't it? I have found several groups of people to inquire about, and they are of good character. Take it easy."
"That's fine, as long as you know it in your heart, I will ask Dagen to ask the third brother, and I must give you a letter."
"Okay, send me a letter after you ask. I want to build a house for the third brother not far from the workshop, but let the eldest brother ask the third brother first and then talk about it later."
"to make."
Mrs. Xu is not jealous. In the past two years, she also built a new house, a large green brick house, and the old house is also kept. It is a utility room like her younger siblings. Now the house is tidy and tidy. Many people in the village The new house was built, and it was all because of the siblings who got rich and built it. Now I am walking around in the village, and it is also very popular, and most people dare not choke with me.
The top-quality Passion Alcohol is now exclusively for the palace. This business is definitely not enough for the Zhang family alone, and there are more powerful people in it. Seeing that the Zhang family can't do this business alone, Zhang Yushi has no choice I had no choice but to tell my younger brother that several important people would be added to it.
Xiaojie is very talented in reading. He is much better than ordinary teenagers at such a young age. Xiaoxiao went to Zhang's family and invited a well-educated teacher from the capital through their family to teach Xiaojie.
Xiaoxiao also took the time to teach Xiaojie the method of brewing passion alcohol, as well as the secret medicine for making smears. There is only the best spirit spring water of passion alcohol. Xiaoxiao can't teach Xiaojie how to make it. I also make two big altars of passion alcohol, two big altars every year, and I am familiar with the process of getting started and some details.
Xiaojie is also obedient, and brews it by himself every year, from last year to this year. Minmin has devoted herself to learning embroidery, and Xiaoxiao taught her how to brew liquor. With ancestral skills by your side, life will not be too sad.
Capital
Several big shots gathered in a restaurant, and Zhang Yushi was also by his side. There was no other way, his younger brother couldn't sit with these nobles. In addition to good things, he also had his own face, if it wasn't for himself, People don't have to worry about him, just open their own shop.
"Prince Qi, Princess Eldest, King Zhou, this is the account book for this year. Please have a look at it. There are five copies in total, one for each family, and one for the store."
These three are the children of the first emperor, and they are relatives of the present. They are all compatriots from the same mother. The queen mother gave birth to four children, all of whom survived. Thinking about it, everyone knows that the queen mother is a powerful one. Children, but because of the war, the first emperor was not the emperor at that time, so the backyard was not complicated, and the children were preserved.
The first emperor was suffering from ailments before he had been emperor for a few years. He was really not suitable for the throne, so he gave up his seat to his elder son who had made great achievements in battle. In the spring, although everyone's life is difficult, they can barely get by. The officials are not too bad, and they don't overtly oppress the people.
This is also where Xiaoxiao feels better.
King Qi flipped through a few pages at random, but didn't look carefully. Naturally, the accountant below would look at these things when they brought them back. He just flipped through a few pages on purpose.After closing the account book, King Qi glanced at Zhang Yushi and said, "You can arrange it. We will go to the house of the woman who made the brew in a few days."
Zhang Yushi was anxious to kneel down and beg for mercy. His younger brother had promised others that he would not bring dignitaries to her house, and they would ignore those who came to her house by themselves, but their family could not bring people there.
"My lord, my younger brother once promised that the woman who brewed passion alcohol could not bring dignitaries to her house. If she didn't comply, she could stop the supply at any time."
"That's it, it doesn't matter. When we arrive at your hometown, the king and Zhou king will find it by themselves. There is something important."
"Yes."
His arm couldn't twist his thigh, so Zhang Yushi could only agree, but that night he wrote a letter and ordered someone to send it to his younger brother in his hometown, telling him to inform Chen Xiaoxiao.
When the lords arrived, Xiaoxiao also knew the news in advance, and received the two lords with a neither humble nor overbearing attitude. After talking with the two lords alone in the yard for a long time, the two lords returned with the best aged passion wine that Xiaoxiao had sent. to the capital.
Not long after, the emperor personally decreed to send a piece of "the best wine in the world" with his own handwriting.Xiaoxiao did not fight against the imperial power, she gave the court another prescription, a prescription for the precise purification of alcohol.Keep the prescription of passion alcohol.
An old man with a hoe on his back asked Chen's father, "Lao Liu, what are you all doing?"
"Uncle Yao, Xiaoxiao's family has built a new house. Tomorrow, we will have a new house wine. Our family will go over early today to help."
"That's great, Xiaoxiao got up, how is she doing now?" Uncle Yao also knew that the daughter of Lao Liu's family was a widow, and life was not easy for a woman with two children.
"Okay, this is not a new house, and let our family go there."
"Being able to build a new house seems to be doing well. Tell her that if someone bullies her, she will come back and tell her. Her surname is Chen, and she can't be bullied at will."
"Got it, thank you Uncle Yao."
"Thank you, let's go!"
The people around didn't care much, thinking it was just an adobe house, but even so, in their hearts, they thought that you were already popular, and it was not easy for a widow with two children to be able to build a house.
The spacious and bright brick and tile houses are clean and tidy everywhere. Each room has a kang cabinet, chairs and tables. There are brand new quilts on the kang cabinet. The walls on the kang are covered with coarse cloth, so people can sit against the wall.This time Liu Sangen and Liu Xiaoying both moved in together.

"Yes, we Xiaoying will live here from now on, okay?"
"Okay. Just can't believe it."
"Well, I can't believe I'm living here."
"Well, second sister-in-law, I will eat less and cook more in the future. I will do whatever you ask me to do. Don't drive me and third brother away." Xiaoying said such a sentence suddenly.
"Why did you drive us Xiaoying away? From now on, as long as we Xiaoying are obedient, the second sister-in-law will not drive you and Sangen away."
"Well, I am obedient, I have always been obedient."
Mrs. Xu also helped with the move. They had visited the new house before, but the feeling of emptiness after the arrangement was very different from before.
Mrs. Xu helped Xiaoxiao's family put things away, and Xiao Laifu's family also scrubbed and cleaned everywhere. There are still three cows in the house, and there is also a sundry room. The Xiao family members perform their own duties.

In the forest, people from Liujia Village and Chenjiawan are all busy picking fruit. Each person has a pair of special scissors. Men and some women pick fruit in the forest, while some women clean the outside of the fruit at home and drain it.
After the drained fruit is peeled, the peeled fruit is put into a special wooden barrel to ferment, and the layers are exquisite.Xiaoxiao also personally smeared a layer of special things inside each wooden barrel.
The rest are done by others, these are not the key skills, when Xiaoxiao finally sealed the cover, she dripped some spiritual springs herself, Xiaoxiao planned to save half of the first year's Passion Alcohol, and sell it after a few years, at that time The taste is absolutely good.In the past three years, Xiaoxiao often went to the mountains and forests at night to cast spells, all of which were Spirit Rain and Earth Rejuvenation.
No one in Liujia Village and Chenjiawan went out to find work this year. Everyone worked at Xiaoxiao's house, which was better than going to the county town to find work. The wages were high. Although the work was tiring, it was not too heavy work.
Standing in front of Xiaoxiao, Xiao Laifu lowered his head to report the situation: "Madam, the wooden barrels at home may need to be re-ordered. You can see how much you want to order."
"Well, let's order a thousand wooden barrels first. The quality of these barrels must be good, otherwise it won't work. There are also shops in the county town where you can ask someone to pick them up, and they will be able to open in a few days."
"it is good."
The family invited a master to teach Minmin and Xiaojie, and several other children followed suit.
The family is very busy, with people coming and going every day, Xiaoxiao is also very busy, and has to do a lot of things personally every day, but this is all staged.
Finally, when the first batch of Passion Alcohol went on sale, there was a free tasting on the first day. There was a long queue in front of the store, and everyone came to taste a small cup. If you think it tastes good, you can go in and buy it again.
The store clerk, Xiaoxiao hired someone to explain and train them after buying them.Clothes are also uniform.
"Madam, this is a day's income, and there are detailed accounts, please have a look."
"Let's put it down, I'll see later." Xiaoxiao has been looking for opportunities to learn to read along with her in the past few years, but the original owner was born in poverty, so of course she must find a way to learn a few words to solve her trouble of not being able to read.
"Yes, and the Zhang family in the county wants to buy a lot of Baixiangchun, and wants to talk to Madam in person."
"Okay, let's make an appointment and ask Mr. Zhang to bring his family to the house. There are people in the Zhang family in the capital, right?"
"Yes, it seems that Master Zhang's eldest brother is an official in the capital, and he seems to be a third-rank official."
"Do you know what it's about?"
"It's not very clear, but there are rumors that it is the censor."
"..."
Xiaoxiao waved to let people go down.I quietly read the account book by myself.
Now everything is on the right track at home, Xiaoxiao just needs to give orders at home, look at the books and income, as for many other things, she entrusts her three elder brothers and one younger brother of the Liu and Chen families to do things. They are all ready-made, just teach them to wipe things and release spirit springs. Only they have these things, and they can’t get them. Not all passion alcohol releases spirit spring water. Passion alcohol is also divided into high, middle and low grades. Only those that are mellow and high-end can be put in, and the amount of things that are applied varies as well as the quality.
Since passion alcohol went on the market and started to sell, the business has been very good, and there is basically no need to worry about the problems of customers. Xiaoxiao opened a store not because she wanted to do retail business, but because she mainly relied on merchants or rich families to buy it. She never thought about starting a business. The whole world knows about it, and they don't want to make the world's wealth. No matter which dynasty, as long as they are greedy and think about making the world's wealth, they will not end well in the end. Xiaoxiao is not afraid, but she is not willing to work so hard to make money.
Passion alcohol needs to go through several processes before it can be brewed. Xiaoxiao will keep some of it every year, and the newly brewed passion alcohol will be stored in the cave behind.
Master Zhang of the Zhang family has established his own brand in the capital. Passion alcohol sold exclusively by the Zhang family is very popular. In the past few years, Xiaoxiao has continued to use grain to make wine, but it is only a small-scale brewing, but the quality is very good. Boutique line.
Mrs. Xu came to Xiaoxiao's house early in the morning and asked her to discuss something, "Sister-in-law, can you come here early?"
"Xiaoxiao, that's how it is. Yesterday your elder brother was nagging me that the three of them are old enough to see each other. He has them all, and it will be too late if they don't. And Xiaoying is sixteen, it's time to get married."
"Yo, that's it. Sister-in-law, don't worry. I asked him Sangen. He probably has someone he likes. He said to wait. I was thinking about when I should talk to my elder brother about this. I have always kept Xiaoying's marriage in mind. Mrs. Zhang told me last year that her natal family has a nephew who is two years older than Xiaoying. After being admitted as a scholar, I asked someone to come to propose marriage. She likes Xiaoying very much, has met her many times, and told her natal brother and sister-in-law about it. I was thinking about waiting for Mrs. Zhang to give me a message before I told you."
"Oh, it would be great if he really became a scholar. Xiaoying also has a good family."
"Isn't it? I have found several groups of people to inquire about, and they are of good character. Take it easy."
"That's fine, as long as you know it in your heart, I will ask Dagen to ask the third brother, and I must give you a letter."
"Okay, send me a letter after you ask. I want to build a house for the third brother not far from the workshop, but let the eldest brother ask the third brother first and then talk about it later."
"to make."
Mrs. Xu is not jealous. In the past two years, she also built a new house, a large green brick house, and the old house is also kept. It is a utility room like her younger siblings. Now the house is tidy and tidy. Many people in the village The new house was built, and it was all because of the siblings who got rich and built it. Now I am walking around in the village, and it is also very popular, and most people dare not choke with me.
The top-quality Passion Alcohol is now exclusively for the palace. This business is definitely not enough for the Zhang family alone, and there are more powerful people in it. Seeing that the Zhang family can't do this business alone, Zhang Yushi has no choice I had no choice but to tell my younger brother that several important people would be added to it.
Xiaojie is very talented in reading. He is much better than ordinary teenagers at such a young age. Xiaoxiao went to Zhang's family and invited a well-educated teacher from the capital through their family to teach Xiaojie.
Xiaoxiao also took the time to teach Xiaojie the method of brewing passion alcohol, as well as the secret medicine for making smears. There is only the best spirit spring water of passion alcohol. Xiaoxiao can't teach Xiaojie how to make it. I also make two big altars of passion alcohol, two big altars every year, and I am familiar with the process of getting started and some details.
Xiaojie is also obedient, and brews it by himself every year, from last year to this year. Minmin has devoted herself to learning embroidery, and Xiaoxiao taught her how to brew liquor. With ancestral skills by your side, life will not be too sad.
Capital
Several big shots gathered in a restaurant, and Zhang Yushi was also by his side. There was no other way, his younger brother couldn't sit with these nobles. In addition to good things, he also had his own face, if it wasn't for himself, People don't have to worry about him, just open their own shop.
"Prince Qi, Princess Eldest, King Zhou, this is the account book for this year. Please have a look at it. There are five copies in total, one for each family, and one for the store."
These three are the children of the first emperor, and they are relatives of the present. They are all compatriots from the same mother. The queen mother gave birth to four children, all of whom survived. Thinking about it, everyone knows that the queen mother is a powerful one. Children, but because of the war, the first emperor was not the emperor at that time, so the backyard was not complicated, and the children were preserved.
The first emperor was suffering from ailments before he had been emperor for a few years. He was really not suitable for the throne, so he gave up his seat to his elder son who had made great achievements in battle. In the spring, although everyone's life is difficult, they can barely get by. The officials are not too bad, and they don't overtly oppress the people.
This is also where Xiaoxiao feels better.
King Qi flipped through a few pages at random, but didn't look carefully. Naturally, the accountant below would look at these things when they brought them back. He just flipped through a few pages on purpose.After closing the account book, King Qi glanced at Zhang Yushi and said, "You can arrange it. We will go to the house of the woman who made the brew in a few days."
Zhang Yushi was anxious to kneel down and beg for mercy. His younger brother had promised others that he would not bring dignitaries to her house, and they would ignore those who came to her house by themselves, but their family could not bring people there.
"My lord, my younger brother once promised that the woman who brewed passion alcohol could not bring dignitaries to her house. If she didn't comply, she could stop the supply at any time."
"That's it, it doesn't matter. When we arrive at your hometown, the king and Zhou king will find it by themselves. There is something important."
"Yes."
His arm couldn't twist his thigh, so Zhang Yushi could only agree, but that night he wrote a letter and ordered someone to send it to his younger brother in his hometown, telling him to inform Chen Xiaoxiao.
When the lords arrived, Xiaoxiao also knew the news in advance, and received the two lords with a neither humble nor overbearing attitude. After talking with the two lords alone in the yard for a long time, the two lords returned with the best aged passion wine that Xiaoxiao had sent. to the capital.
Not long after, the emperor personally decreed to send a piece of "the best wine in the world" with his own handwriting.Xiaoxiao did not fight against the imperial power, she gave the court another prescription, a prescription for the precise purification of alcohol.Keep the prescription of passion alcohol.
