Datang Nongwang

Chapter 246: Wine Comes
Wan'er likes to eat roasted yam, and even more like to eat roasted taro.

In Li Chongyuan's original words.

These things are all used to deceive children.

It was placed in Li Chongyuan's hometown in his previous life.

The dishes made with taro are basically used to deceive children.

This is true even if it is a melon or fruit.

As long as anyone has a child, they will plant some crops such as melons and fruits.

And taro is one of them.

If you don’t have children at home, you generally don’t know how to grow them, even if you don’t grow watermelons and cucumbers. The main reason is that you are afraid that your children will be greedy, so you will plant some for your children to eat.

after all.

In western Gan Province, there is a shortage of farmland.

The main thing is to grow rice. How can I waste farmland to grow these crops that don't bring benefits to my family.

but.

Later, because the agricultural tax was exempted, these crops actually increased.

After the roasted Huaishan and the roasted taro were cooked, Wan'er showed her filial piety. Holding her favorite taro, she didn't forget to peel the skin and hand it to the old lady, "Mother, this roasted taro It's the best, I baked it, mother, try it."

"Okay, Wan'er knows how to honor her mother, mother will try it now." The old lady was also happy from ear to ear at this time.

my home.

There are so many sensible and filial children.

Even if her husband has gone to another world, she is satisfied.

Li Chongyuan stood aside and watched this scene with a smile on his face.

After the old lady stayed in Li Zhuang not long, she got into the carriage and went back to Chang'an.

As for Wan'er.

Still stayed.

Perhaps it was because Wan'er's act of filial piety made the old lady happy.

Even when Wan'er opened her mouth, the old lady nodded.

Regarding Wan'er's continued stay in Li Zhuang, Li Chongyuan was unhappy, "Why don't you go back to Chang'an with Auntie? You don't even read a book, and you know how to be crazy every day. I see you live a little longer, do you want to go back to Chang'an?" Crazy to the sky?"

"I'm not going back. My mother agreed that I would stay." Wan'er pretended to say that she was a little displeased with her fourth brother, and stuck out her tongue at Li Chongyuan.

Li Chongyuan waved his palm, making a gesture to slap the girl.

After the little girl saw this, she giggled and ran away.

The old lady is leaving.

What should everyone do.

Even Wan'er's maid, Xiaohong, and the guard were arranged by Li Chongyuan to do things.

With so much work at the moment, one more person counts as one person.

Do it.

That's five days.

And one morning five days later.

A craftsman ran to the small courtyard to report to Li Chongyuan: "Young Lord, do you think the wall on the small courtyard should be demolished?"

"Don't break it first. You build the big house over there first. No one knows when it will snow. Once the wall is demolished, my small courtyard will be ventilated." After hearing this, Li Chongyuan looked around. The fence in the direction of the big house.

Just that wall.

The plan on the original drawing was to be demolished.

If it is placed in summer, maybe Li Chongyuan will immediately order the wall to be demolished, so that the wall of the big house can be extended to the small courtyard.

After the craftsman got the words, he began to ask about the beams of the big house.

Just as Li Chongyuan was speaking.

A middle-aged man suddenly came to the outside of the small courtyard, stretched his head and looked into the small courtyard.

"Excuse me, who are you? What's the matter?" Xing Ba immediately spotted the visitor, got up and asked the visitor.

For that person, Xingba had never seen him before, and he felt vigilant in his heart.

Seeing Xingba's question, the middle-aged man immediately put on a superior posture and said: "I am ordered by my family's Duke to send some wine to Lizhuang to give to Mr. Li County."

Li Chongyuan stood by the fence, looked back at the people at the gate of the courtyard, "It turned out to be Steward Cheng, what brought you to my Li village?"

The person who came was none other than Cheng Feng, the housekeeper of Su Guogong Cheng Yaojin's family.

"Hello, Mr. Li County. I have been ordered by the master to send the wine to Li Zhuang, and I ask Mr. Li to receive it." Cheng Feng took a look and found that Li Chongyuan was also there.

This time, Cheng Feng was sent by his host, Cheng Yaojin, to send some wine to Li Zhuang.

As for his superior posture just now, it is natural that he is a housekeeper, and he is also the housekeeper of the Duke's family.

For people like Xingba and the others who work in the small courtyard, relatively speaking, they must be incomparable.

Moreover.

Cheng Feng's eyes are definitely above the top.

Even when facing Li Chongyuan, this posture is only a little lower.

Li Chongyuan didn't care about these.

At this moment, when he heard that Cheng Yaojin had brought wine, he thought in his heart that Cheng Yaojin had brought him money.

Wine for wine.

This is what I promised myself when I was in court.

only.

At that time, Li Chongyuan said that six jars of good wine should be exchanged for one jar.

in fact.

To make one jar of shochu, it would definitely take less than six jars.

At most, two to three jars can be burned to produce a jar of shochu.

of course.

This calculation method is only calculated by Li Chongyuan at the moment, and there is no matching ratio.

If Li Chongyuan wanted to make more money, he could add some water to it. In this case, the degree of shochu would naturally be lower, and he could earn more money himself.

There is a saying.

Who makes the most money?
Of course, the money of these nobles is easy to earn.

He has already been taken advantage of, Li Chongyuan will not let go of such a good opportunity.

Listening to Cheng Feng saying that the wine has arrived, Li Chongyuan waved his hand happily and said, "Have someone deliver the wine to Qiao Guanshi's house, Qiao Guanshi, take someone to receive it, and check the quantity carefully."

"Okay, little man." After getting the instructions, Qiao Su walked out of the courtyard with a cane.

With Cheng Yaojin sending wine to Li Zhuang.

On this day, and in the days to come.

There are also several princes, nobles, and generals who brought wine.

More or less.

Qiao Su recorded them all.

Adding up all the odds and zeros, the amount of wine delivered filled up Qiao Su's house.

All the wine added up was more than double the amount of shochu Li Chongyuan made last time.

A total of one hundred and seven jars of wine.

When Li Chongyuan heard Qiao Su's report, he immediately laughed and said: "It seems that these generals really like to drink. Under the current situation of food shortage, they can still get so much wine."

"Xiao Langjun, are we going to start burning this wine?" Qiao Su didn't care about the generals, what he cared about was how much money this batch of wine could earn.

To make shochu, you need people and firewood.

Naturally, firewood needs to be hired to go to Niushou Mountain to collect firewood.

For these little money, Qiao Su is no longer fancy.

After hearing this, Li Chongyuan replied: "Old Qiao, hurry up and get someone to go to the mountains to cut firewood and come back, but don't make it difficult when it snows; Dadu, San Dezi, and you will give me a hand from today on." It is specially made to burn and sprinkle.”
