Great Wei Nengchen

No one thought that after a few years, the significance represented by these 13 copper coins was far higher than their own value. ; Whenever a child goes out to do business as an adult, he must take out the 13 copper coins, put them in the ancestral temple, kneel down three times and kowtow nine times to pray for blessings.There was an outsider who offered [-] gold to ask for one, but he couldn't get it!Because later, Liang Xiaoyu, who was the most wealthy in the world, and Xiao Yi, the "Marquis of No Sorrow", left the world with a legend of "thirteen copper coins conquering the world!"

1000 years later, the world was once again in chaos, wars were raging, and bandits came to kill him. The 49th generation head of the Liang family, "Liang Wangcai" Wanguan, discarded all his property and ran away with the 13 copper coins in his arms...

The three strode into the tavern. This time Xiao Yi took the lead and walked in the front. Without saying a word, he took out the gourd and handed it directly to Liang Xiaoyu; although he was a little puzzled, the latter still took it and put it Sniffed under the nose.

A real master of wine country can tell the quality of the wine by smelling it with the nose without tasting it with the tongue, and can even tell the type, place of origin and year of the wine...; He rushed directly into Liang Xiaoyu's chest through his nose; he opened his eyes wide suddenly, looked at the wine gourd in his hand, as if looking at some peerless treasure, shook it gently, and the familiar feeling told him that there was still wine in the gourd. There is less than half a bowl of wine; (Originally there was a bowl, but I tasted it myself, Daniel took a sip, Ma Liu took a sip, Zhang Yan took a sip, and 'Cabbage' even stole a sip, thanks to Xiao Yi Be quick, or there will be nothing left of this).

I took a small sip of wine into my mouth, closed my eyes, and slowly tasted the spirits in my mouth with the taste buds on my tongue. This time it became so black and white; smart people don't need to talk too much, looking at Xiao Yi standing in front of him without saying a word, Liang Xiaoyu waved his hand and said only one word: "Please!"

Follow Liang Xiaoyu into the inner room. The tavern is divided into two parts, the inside and the outside. The outside is a small tavern, and the inside is a big courtyard. It is not only a wine storehouse, but also Liang Xiaoyu's residence. There were a lot of goods piled up at the station, mainly the wine brewed by the Liang family.

He took out two sea bowls, poured his own wine and the wine brought by Xiao Yi respectively, lay down there and observed carefully, the color of his own wine was cloudy, the taste of the wine was light, and it tasted slightly bitter, with a lot of food residue in it (Hey, in the 21st century, the wine I drink now has no grain residue, it is all alcohol blended/cry!); look at another bowl, the color of the wine is transparent and clean, and there is not even a trace of impurities. The aroma of wine is tangy.

Looking up at Xiao Yi with a smile on his face, Liang Xiaoyu said in an affirmative tone; "The wine you brought, Mr. Daoist, is clear and transparent, with a tangy aroma, and what's even more precious is that it has no impurities. Compared with the wine I sell The wine is better than a hundred times, they are not the same, but, although these two wines are different in alcohol concentration, but after careful tasting, they should come from the same source; Buy wine from me, then use secret techniques to refine it, and finally get this top-grade wine, right?"

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!Xiao Yi applauded again and again, first to praise Liang Xiaoyu's level of understanding of wine, and second to admire his sharp thinking ability and precise judgment.At the same time, he said: "Boss Liang is indeed very knowledgeable. If you sell this wine on your behalf, how much profit will you make? How much can you share with me?"

"If the Taoist leader is willing to sell the secret technique, the price is up to you, and I will never bargain!" Liang Xiaoyu said generously.

"Boss Liang is indeed a top-notch businessman, but as the saying goes, "Teaching him to fish is worse than teaching him to fish! "If this kind of wine is sold in large quantities, the profits generated will definitely be huge and endless; I will provide the secret recipe, and you will provide the resources. How about working together for mutual benefit?" Xiao Yi said indifferently. (Small sample, you want to play with me, but my brother is from a business background; Xiao Yi whispered)

"Yes, you and I cooperate, the profit will be divided into four or six, you four, I six." After thinking for a while, Liang Xiaoyu replied happily.

Hehe, 13% to [-]%, I seven you three, this secret technique is created exclusively by me (did you create the distillation technology? Plagiarism! Author's note:), and I can leave you alone and do it alone (you have money As start-up capital? The last [-] copper coins have been spent, the author’s words:) Xiao Yi did not give up an inch when he talked about the business experience, and the two big cows around him admired him, "The immortal master is the immortal master, not only the secret technique is superb , this cheek is superhumanly thick..."

With the business route of my Liang family, I can get twice the result with half the effort...

There are so many merchants in the world, those who are willing to do this business are like crucian carp crossing the river...

Interlacing is like a mountain!

It's not difficult for the attendees...

…………”

The two of them sparred for half an hour, soaking the clothes on their chests; finally reached an agreement, [-]-[-] split.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!Hehehe!The agreement was reached, high-fived as an oath, the two looked at each other, and they both felt that it was hard to find a confidant, and they laughed at each other.

In the future, Liang Xiaoyu said to relatives and friends many times: "Marquis Wuchou is cunning and wise, if he is willing to continue in business, then the throne of the world's richest man will not be his turn.

The ancient Chinese had a pious belief in oaths. As the saying goes, they despise life and death and pay more attention to promises. In order to realize their oaths, they often go through fire and water and die. , Waiting for his mother to die, and after three years of filial piety, he killed his enemy Han Xiangxialei for him, and sure enough; later Nie Zheng entered Yangzhai, the capital of Han, alone with a sword, and assassinated Xialei on the steps with the momentum of a white rainbow penetrating the sun. , and then killed dozens of guards.Because he was afraid of hurting his sister, who was similar in appearance to his own, he destroyed his face with a sword, gouged out his eyes, and committed suicide by dissection.His sister searched for his younger brother's corpse in Han City, lay down and wept bitterly, and bumped into Nie Zheng's corpse to death.There are still many stories in Chinese history of such stories of being willing to smash one's body to pieces for one oath...

In the end, the group who valued the oath and neglected the contract was the Shanxi merchants in the Qing Dynasty. They paid attention to "a sentence of ten thousand taels of silver". Complete the original oath at a discount; if someone wants to write in black and white when doing business, then he will be despised by others, will not be accepted by the Shanxi merchant group, and will never become a super-class businessman.

It's a pity that such good moral habits passed down from our ancestors have been completely destroyed in modern society. In the society of the 21st century, only suspicion, distrust, betrayal, and deceit are left... It makes people feel distressed to think about it!

21. Chapter 21 Worry-Free Wine

The oath has been made, time is not waiting, several people immediately started to take action, large-scale purification of liquor, is not a small kitchen can be competent, as the saying goes, if you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools, assembly line production tools It is indispensable, and Xiao Yi is about to start drawing again to make vessels for distilling liquor; as soon as he picked up the pen, he was hugged by Daniel and Ma Liu, "My little master, don't draw pictures, come on!" The first time I drew a blueprint, I ended up building a hexagonal kang, how many people were killed by drawing this time..."

The later "Three Kingdoms" Wei Shu records: "The two generals Niu and Ma received the formation map sent by Xiao Yi, the Marquis of Wushou, before each battle. They never watched it and threw it at will. The result is that the enemy army discusses the method of countermeasures according to the formation map; in battle, when they are defeated, they often ambushes and march according to the map. If they do not encounter the enemy, their own troops will lose their direction. Often, the whole army will die when they go into the deep mountains and swamps... Later generations It is called "Wuchou Hou Shentu, very human can understand it! "

In desperation, Xiao Yi had no choice but to come to Blacksmith Niu's shop in person, explaining why he came and what he needed...

In fact, the utensils for distilling liquor are very simple. There are two large iron pots, a large wooden barrel, some cloth, and a long copper pipe. Bamboo instead; iron pots are ready-made, and because it is located in the cold north, it is difficult to find bamboo pipes for drainage. Fortunately, the neighbor’s cobbler not only sells animal skins, but also makes bows and arrows, and the materials for making bows and arrows need cattle Tendons, horns, and high-quality bamboo, Xiao Yi immediately brought back a bundle.

Seeing Xiao Yi making such a big show, both the blacksmith and the cobbler put down their work, carried the utensils, and followed them to the backyard of Liang's Tavern, wanting to see with their own eyes what miracles this talented young man can bring to everyone...

Speaking of wine; since the day when our primitive ancestors put the inexhaustible wild fruits into stone pits, rotted and fermented to produce alcohol, wine has formed an indissoluble bond with human beings; look at the performance of celebrities in the past. I know that wine has a great influence on Chinese people.

Liu Ling is the No.1 drinker in history. The name of the wine is higher than the name of the text. There was once a word:

"When the wine field is cultivated, it will be buried when it dies,

Might as well be a friend of mine.

The copper camel sighs in desolation with thorns,

Celebrities never worry about it! "

He will be buried where he died after drinking. It is really a state of drinking.

Li Bai in the Tang Dynasty was known as the "wine fairy", and Du Fu was more addicted to alcohol than Li Bai. According to statistics, Li Bai has 1050 existing poems and essays, 170 of which involve drinking, ranking the top 16; Du Fu has more than 1400 poems and essays, 300 of which involve drinking. For the top 21.According to the test, most of Li Bai's descendants were mentally retarded and had physical defects. Du Fu died of excessive drinking.However, literati and poets in the past dynasties still "see death as home" when drinking.This spirit of drinking really makes future generations of alcoholics pay homage to them! (The editor has to worship one first, the hero of the literary world, the hero of the wine country, and my role model).

If it is said that literati and elegant guests drink with a touch of literary romance, then the monarchs of the past dynasties drink with a touch of blood.

"Shuowen Jiezi" has: "In the ancient Xia Yu period, Yi Di made wine mash. Yu tasted it and found it beautiful, so he gave up Yi Di. Because Dayu was afraid that his descendants would drink and destroy the country, he used great perseverance to quit drinking. And alienated Yidi who made wine, let's take a look at the wonderful performances of the descendants of the monarchs:

The wine pool dug by Xia Jie was so big that a boat could sail, and the country was destroyed.

King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty was even better. He went straight to the wine pool and meat forest, and his country was destroyed.

Southern Chen empress: Chen Shubao "was intoxicated all day long and rarely woke up" and drank a stone with his children every day.subjugation.

Emperor Taizong Wo Kuotai of the Yuan Dynasty was very addicted to alcohol, especially in his later years. He drank wildly with his ministers every day until he died of drinking.

Liao Jingzong Yelujing, known as the "Sleeping King", and the reason why he can sleep so well is because he can get drunk. According to historical records, he "had a banquet", "drinking at night and sleeping at night" and was finally killed by his servants while drunk.

Nothing to say, nothing to say.

Every good man has followed suit, wine is really a man's blood!

What flows in the blood of a man is red alcohol...

Liang Xiaoyu's home is the traditional method of brewing wine in the Han Dynasty. The grain is steamed, cooled, and then sealed in a large vat to ferment slowly. This fermented wine is only more than ten degrees Celsius and contains a lot of grain residue. Layer filtration, but the wine is still cloudy and has a bitter taste.

Xiao Yi asked the two big cows to put the first big pot on the built-in stove, filled the pot with fermented wine from Liang Xiaoyu's family, and then sealed the pot mouth with several layers of cloth; Put a large wooden barrel and completely cover the pot inside. The wooden barrel must be tightly seamed. The place where the mouth of the barrel and the mouth of the pot are joined is sealed with yellow mud. A small opening is made in the upper part of the barrel, so that the bamboo tube can be inserted just right. The place is also sealed with yellow mud, and another large pot is placed under the other end of the bamboo tube.

Everything is ready, Xiao Yi gave the order to light the fire!

A group of cyan flames, with everyone's high expectations, quickly ignited; the wine in the pot boiled quickly under the high fire, making a sound of "gudu, gudu"; everyone looked nervously at the sight in front of them. Although they didn't know the reason for everything miraculous, they were smart enough not to ask, because Xiao Yi had given them too many miracles...

Because alcohol volatilizes much faster than water, a large amount of high-temperature alcohol gas is filtered through layers of cloth, rises to the wooden barrel, and then spews out along the bamboo tube. The bamboo tube is very long. After the wine gas is cooled, it turns into liquid wine again, and slowly drips into the second cauldron; as a stream of transparent and shiny liquid flows down, the strong aroma of wine begins to pervade the entire yard; this simple physical reaction In modern times, even ordinary elementary school students understand it, but in the Eastern Han Dynasty...

Liang Xiaoyu's eyes were as big as eggs, as if she wanted to swallow the cauldron in one gulp.

Daniu and Ma Liu opened their mouths wide, and slowly stuck out their tongues, one inch, two inches, three inches...

The blacksmith and the cobbler didn't say anything, but they looked at Xiao Yi in the same way as they looked at Zhang Jiao, the "General Tiangong", who claimed to be able to call wind and rain, and spread beans into soldiers.

Watching the smell of the wine gradually fade, Xiao Yirang turned off the stove, and after cooling down a little, he picked up a ladle used for selling wine and scooped up half of it, and took a small sip. The taste was good, refreshing and sweet, and he felt This distilled wine is around 35 degrees, and this degree was definitely high alcohol in the Eastern Han Dynasty; "This is pure natural and pollution-free pure grain wine! Although there are grain wines in the 21st century, those grown with a lot of chemical fertilizers and pesticides , It is more accurate to say that it is a chronic poison than food..."

Before Xiao Yi finished lamenting how badly those profiteers blended liquor in his previous life, and he was also addicted to alcohol, the Niu blacksmith who had been eyeing him for a long time snatched the water ladle, scooped up a full ladle, and took a big gulp. The strong smell of alcohol quickly filled his mouth and nasal cavity, and he felt a line of fire burning down his throat and directly into his stomach. In an instant, his stomach seemed to be on fire, dispelling the chill brought by winter completely. ...

"Good wine! This is the wine that a man should drink. What I used to drink was water!" After finishing speaking, the blacksmith carefully handed the ladle in his hand to the cobbler, for fear of spilling a drop...

Daniu and Ma Liu didn't dare to compete with the cobbler, so they quickly rushed to the other two ladles, but the action was a beat slower, and Liang Xiaoyu, who had no ladle to snatch, threw himself directly beside the iron pot with red eyes, and simply used Take the wine with both hands and pour it into your mouth; like a mad dog who has been hungry for a few days and finds a large piece of fat beef...
