"There is no need to be so famous in private." Liu Hong said casually, "After all, there are no outsiders, and I am also your brother."

The clan brother would send someone to assassinate him?Liu Tao really wanted to complain directly, but it felt a bit tearful to say that.

He took a sip of the wine, but the taste was still the same. It seems that he didn't just muddle through because Zhang Fei had already left.According to the agreement, the wine has a part of his dividends, the start-up capital for starting a business, deducting the paper mill, that's it.

"There is no obvious change in the taste, so I feel relieved." Liu Tao drank it down in one gulp, then put down his glass.

"I'm very curious..." Liu Hong looked at the glass of wine in his hand, "The secret of Jiuxian brewing is distillation, right?"

"It's really impossible to hide this for too long..." Liu Tao was taken aback when he heard this, and then smiled helplessly.It is also a matter of no technical content, and it is not surprising to be discovered.

"It's just distilled wine, but it doesn't have this taste, so the concept of cellaring is proposed, right?" Liu Hong asked.

"That's true. The distilled wine is too hot, and it needs to be cellared for several months to make the taste soft. Generally speaking, it needs to be cellared for one year to be considered qualified." Liu Tao replied.

"In one year... the distillery in Zhuo County has doubled in size, and a large amount of Jiuxianniang has begun to be brewed. In terms of food consumption, Youzhou or even Jizhou may not be able to support a second company to operate this kind of wine. workshop." Liu Hong said with emotion.

"In order to avoid affecting the people, I specifically ordered that sorghum, wheat and other crops be used to make wine." Liu Tao quickly explained, but it's okay not to explain. The yield per mu is actually not that low these days.

"Just considering the cellar storage, in one year, it is estimated that Jiuxianniang has spread all over the world, and everyone knows it..." Liu Hong sighed, "Plus it is a tribute wine, and it is worth a lot of money. It is not a lie. To say that it makes money, De Ran is really good. "

Chapter 228 Pretend to be drunk and drunk

"I'm ashamed to say that this little trick of the minister's is not the subject's ability..." Liu Tao refused to admit it even if he was beaten to death, it was his own ability.Naturally, it was unavoidable to use the name of a certain alchemist again.

"Who is that alchemist's name?" Of course Liu Hong would also be super curious.

"The name is Zuo Ci, and he is good at the Qimen Dunjia method." Liu Tao thought for a while, "After teaching these things to the minister, he disappeared directly in front of the minister's eyes in a blink of an eye. His escape technique can be called weird."

I'm sorry, Mr. Zuo Ci... Liu Tao said silently, how old is Zuo Ci these days?Don't call the younger brother the uncle, it would be a little rude.

"Oh..." Liu Hong remembered the name, it doesn't matter how old you are, anyone with skills needs it.

The topic here is briefly mentioned.Anyway, for Liu Tao, it's okay for Liu Hong's attention to start moving towards Zuo Ci.Whether it is Zuo Ci or not, the subsequent Ge Xuan and Ge Hong are all relatively orthodox Taoists.

As for the Five Dou Rice Sect, the way of ghosts it advocates is not a good thing.Although the beliefs of hell, heaven, and incense and gods were all created based on the five buckets of rice religion, and became an important part of Chinese culture...

The rest of the time is nothing less than daily chatting.Liu Hong was complaining more, while Liu Tao was listening.Suddenly, I felt like I suddenly became a psychiatrist.

While drinking, he began to realize that something was wrong. Although Liu Hong was always complaining, the speed of pouring wine was not slow.In other words, the more excited the mood, the faster the frequency of pouring wine. One cup after another, one doesn't know whether one is drunk or not.

Liu Tao didn't know whether Liu Hong was drunk or not, but he himself felt that he was about to be drunk.

The amount itself is more than a dozen cups, if you have to drink more than twenty cups, it will be strange if you don't get drunk based on the degree of this wine.Having said that, isn't it strange that I have been drinking constantly since the beginning, but I haven't eaten food at all?

wait!Liu Tao seemed to realize that Liu Hong might be deliberately getting himself drunk... If that's the case...

Magic—Light of Purification, Expert Effect: Remove two negative statuses from your own troops, consuming 20 mana points.It can be used for cold and fever, poisoning and drunkenness, it is really a must-have magic at home!

Suddenly, I understand why science lags behind in a world where magic is developed. Magic is so convenient!

Silently performed a trick for myself, and then continued to drink, and drank more than 30 cups like this.In fact, the previous twenty or so cups of alcohol have been completely eliminated, and the effect is only the amount of the next four or five cups.

His face was red, but he was actually very energetic, but he pretended to be drunk and wobbled.

"Deran, I...let's continue to drink!" Liu Hong continued to pour the wine, this guy blushed a lot, but he actually drank a dozen or so glasses, and the others were all gags, coaxing, or threatening Liu Tao to drink it down .

Having said that, is it really okay to drink so obviously?Liu Tao actually wanted to complain like this.

"Hi...drink, I can't take it anymore." Liu Tao staggered, but he was very nervous. For the first time, he realized that pretending to be drunk was not easy.

"Hahaha... Deran's drinking capacity needs to continue to practice." Liu Hong laughed, so he continued to pour wine.

Just like that, five or six cups went on, Liu Tao thought: It should be almost the same, right?I really can't put it on...

Fortunately, Liu Hong also felt that it was almost the same, so he began to change the subject: "Deran thinks, how is the big man now?"

"What...how is it?" Liu Tao became a little blunt when speaking, he felt that a drunk person should be like this.Alcohol strengthens one's courage, drinking to this point, it should be audacious.

"Is there peace in the world of the Han Dynasty?" Seeing this, Liu Hong was a little relieved, so he asked.

"Taiping? Hahaha..." Liu Tao laughed loudly, "For three or five years in a row, there have been rebellions in this way or there, and this year there was a big rebellion directly. What kind of Taiping..."

Although Liu Hong was mentally prepared, he was somewhat displeased to hear it now.It's just that I'm not happy, but I also know that what Liu Tao said is the truth, and anyone with a discerning eye can actually see it.

"Then why is it not peaceful?" Liu Hong continued to ask.

"Those scholars said that His Majesty favored the ten permanent servants, causing troubles in the court, so that the people were in dire straits..." Liu Tao looked drunk, "It's just that they... hiccup... disciples and old officials are all over the world, and the second brother is ashamed to say Brother..."

I really want to say this sentence for a long time, but who can I say it to?Liu Hong suddenly felt that Liu Tao was much more pleasing to his eyes. He was really aggrieved all the time. Everything was said by a scholar, and his words could not even penetrate Luoyang.

There was a lot of public opinion all over the world, and even local scholars thought so, so after they became officials, they all took it as their duty to eradicate the ten permanent servants.No one has ever thought about the problems of local wealthy families, gentry and powerful families!

"Then, Deran thinks, how can this problem be solved?" Liu Hong asked.

"Solution? How to solve it?" Liu Tao stood up directly, "There are not many scholars who stand by His Majesty's side!"

"Then how can I get them to stand by me?" Liu Hong looked at Liu Tao's mischief, without getting angry, and even signaled the surrounding eunuchs and Lang Guan to back down, and then asked slowly.

"Open... let's open a library!" Liu Tao said casually. He had this idea when he went to the paper mill before. Tell those readers..."

Speaking of this, he pointed to the sky and said: "If you want to be an official, you have to read it according to this sentence, otherwise the court will not accept it! Don't care... don't care if he is filial or not. Anyone who wants to copy it can copy it!"

Hearing this, Liu Hong began to breathe rapidly. If this move is really going to happen, it will be very useful to him!

In the pre-Qin period, there was a practice of passing cars on the same track, writing in the same language, and walking in the same way.If he unifies the sentence reading of books in the world, he will basically abolish the learning of all schools in the world.But relatively speaking, he is also bound to receive the attention of scholars all over the world.

"But even Confucianism has so many schools..." Liu Hong tried to mention it.

"How they study is their business, and no one prohibits or restricts them. But what the court wants is this standard. According to me, there is an exam directly, and all young people gather together to take the exam. If they pass it, it's okay. Don't!" Liu Tao complained right away, but at this point, he became depressed again, "It's just that they want to spout about moral issues again."

"Virtue is not important?" Liu Hong actually doesn't believe in virtue, he believes in performance more.

"If virtue is useful, why do those officials who come from filial piety still use power for personal gain, corrupt the law? Virtue, this thing is the most unreliable thing in the world!" Liu Tao complained.

"Then what would Deran do if I really hand over the country to you?" Liu Hong asked suddenly.

"The emperor is working too hard, I don't want to be the emperor..." Liu Tao was excited, and he had to be careful here, "I just want to be a general. The Xiongnu, Xianbei, Wuhuan and Qiang people, all bow down to us obediently!"

Chapter 229 Let It Be Released For A Few Years

Not to mention Liu Hong was stunned at this moment, but the attendants around him were also stunned. It was the first time I saw him, and I thought the emperor was working hard.

"It's hard work being an emperor?" Liu Hong was a little skeptical. Could it be that Liu Tao is pretending to be drunk?After looking at it for a long time, I really can't see anything.After thinking about it carefully, I feel that I am indeed a little suspicious. If I drink more than thirty drinks, can I not get drunk? !

"What's so good?" Liu Tao also strengthened his courage a little bit, "Hidden in the palace all day, can't go anywhere..."

That's it?Liu Hong originally wanted to hear what he said about his "high spirits and aspirations", just for this reason?A little disappointed!
