I was the richest man in Da Song

Chapter 12 Layout
The reason why Kaifeng City is divided into main stores and corner stores is that apart from some differences in scale, the biggest difference is that the 72 main stores in Kaifeng City have the right to sell liquor and music licensed by the government.

All wine must be licensed by the government to be brewed. All merchants in Kaifeng City can only go to the 72 designated stores to buy wine koji, and then they can make wine. Private brewing will violate the laws of the Song Dynasty.

In the Song Dynasty, alcohol taxation was implemented, and alcohol tax was imposed on these 72 main stores. Among them, Fanlou and Wanchunlou alone had to pay nearly 70 guan every year.

Liquor tax is one of the most important taxes in the Song Dynasty. In order to protect the revenue of the treasury, the punishment for private brewing is also very severe.

Anyone who sells [-] catties of smuggled music and enters Beijing with bootleg liquor to five buckets shall be sentenced to death.

Only when money flows can it generate value. He Shao has a deep understanding of this point, and the eight thousand coins can only be safest if they are placed in one place!

He Shao came to Wanchun Building again. In order to deal with Fan Lou, Yang Shiliang was the most important help He Shao found. The two had common opponents and did not have too much grievance, so the cooperation was logical.

"Brother Yang, I want some high-quality wine music"

"Premium Jiuqu 490 wen, can produce eight catties of wine per catty"

"Eight thousand guan, all replaced with wine koji"

Eight thousand guan koji is not a small amount, and it takes two days to steam Wanchunlou at full capacity.

"Don't tell me you want to use wine to deal with Fan Lou?"

He Shao nodded.

"Brother He, I advise you not to do this. Fanlou is second to none in terms of koji and wine. The two best wines in Kaifeng City are the lamb wine brewed by the wine office of the official prison in the palace, and the second is Fanlou. Silver bottle of wine"

Yang Shiliang didn't speak very bluntly, but between the lines he was telling He Shao that he was hitting a stone with an egg.

"Brother Yang, don't worry, I know it well. My He family not only has this stewed meat recipe, but also the secret wine making method."

Situ He Zeng of the Western Jin Dynasty, the ancestor of the God of Cookery, was put on another hat by He Zeng. He Shao himself did not know how to make wine, but he knew that the wine in the Song Dynasty was fermented with a very low alcohol content. One more step is required, distillation.

"Since you've made up your mind, I won't persuade you any more. You can find someone to take away the jiuqu at Pingdan tomorrow."

Yu Futong ordered Diao Kui and Diao Shun to get the money back, but what he didn't know was that Diao Kui and Diao Shun came to He Shao's house that afternoon, but he didn't kill people to get money.

The two of them knelt in front of He Shao, and told Yu Futong everything about Yu Futong's plan.

"Master He, we didn't do anything this time."

Diao Kui was frightened by He Shao, and immediately came to confess his mistake after receiving Yu Futong's notice. Their brothers didn't know why Yu Futong insisted on fighting against this demon.

"Good job, I won't treat you badly, I will take Yu Futong to see the official in a few days, you know what to do?"

"knowing"

The two nodded quickly, like chickens pecking at rice.

No matter what kind of villain he is, as long as his psychological defense is broken, he can only be manipulated by others.

Lao Ji and He Si finally returned home after staying in Suoerfang all day. What they did was a crucial step for He Shao to bring down Fanlou.

"How about it"

"It's all done according to your instructions, but..." He Si hesitated a little.

"Did something happen?" He Shao asked.

"It's not a surprise, it's just that Min Weng knew about it not long after we bought the house."

"Nothing big or small in Solfang can be hidden from him," Ji Zai added.

He Shao frowned slightly, and he hated such traffickers very much and wanted to avoid them as much as possible, but it seemed a bit difficult now.

"Master, although Min Weng is not popular in Kaifeng City, he is also one of the most skilled people in the whole city," Ji Zai said.

"I underestimated Min Weng's influence in Solfang"

"Min Weng asked me to convey that he has found all the people the young master is looking for and can start work at any time, and the price is negotiable. Each person will charge ten guan."

"That's all, it's up to him"

Going out a few hundred more for nothing, as long as Suoerfang's wine steaming workshop can open smoothly, He Shao can only hold his nose and cooperate with this old dealer once.

The most proud thing Yu Futong has been since he became the shopkeeper of Fan Lou was the past two days. After getting the recipe, he made yuan hoof and pork head meat. Even the courtiers in the palace would come to pick up the meat on time every day with food boxes.

After the fragrant meat shop was burnt down, those mutton meats that He Shao raised their stomachs to eat usually felt that the smell was too strong and had no fragrance, so they couldn't help flocking to Fanlou after learning that it was sold.

There were only He Anwen, Ji Zai, and He Shao in the fragrant meat shop, and the daily limited supply was already the limit, while dozens of cooks, big and small, were working at full capacity in the Fanlou kitchen.

"Why is there no news about Diao Shun and Diao Kui?"

Yu Futong was a little puzzled, usually asking them to do some things can be done quickly.

Unable to think too much, Yu Futong actually saw Li Hang, the prime minister of the court, straightened his robes and greeted him from a distance.

"Li Xiang, please hurry up"

Yu Futong hastily supported Li Hang, his attitude was as low as he wanted.

"Isn't this yuan ho from the fragrant butcher shop on the side of Yudao? Why did it go to your fan building?" Li Hang asked.

"The fragrant butcher shop was in trouble, I bought the recipe for [-] guan"

"Twenty thousand guan? It's so expensive." Li Hang was a little surprised, this was almost five years of his salary.

"I think it's a pity that the family has no work, so I gave some more," Yu Futong replied.

"Well, as a businessman, you can't just know how to use capital for profit, but also be willing to do good." Li Hang gave a rare compliment.

Attracting and sending off are all the dignitaries of Kaifeng City who are very unhappy, but such a good scene did not last for too long.

Yu Futong was standing behind the counter. There seemed to be a lot less people coming today than in the previous two days. It was strange to ask people to inquire about the sink behind him, and his eyes seemed to be devoured by others!

"You mean Wanchunlou also sells these two dishes?" Yu Futong confirmed.

"Not only Wanchun Building, but also all the main stores sell it!"

"He Shao...how dare you lie to me..."

Yu Futong now wished he could tear He Shaosheng alive. The recipe he bought for [-] guan is now found all over the city?
It was the first time for He Si to come to Fanlou, and he couldn't help but look around. He originally wanted to see more of the most luxurious restaurant in Kaifeng City, but after seeing Yu Futong, he decided to get down to business first.

"Master Yu, our young master wants to see you," He Si said.

Yu Futong recalled for a while and finally remembered that this was the servant next to He Shao.

"He still dares to see me? Where is it!"

"The elegant room of Wanchun Tower has prepared the first-class food and wine for you to go."

"Go and tell He Shao, I'll be there soon"

Even if Yu Futong wants to cut He Shao into pieces, he has to endure it temporarily. He has the seal signed by He Shao in his hand. According to this seal and the huge loss of Fan Lou, Yu Futong is sure to go up and down to imprison He Shao.

"Find Diao Kui Diao Shun and let them do it as soon as possible. It is not so easy to hide that large sum of money. I will see that money tonight."

Today's recipes are rotten, and it is very important to recover that money by any means.
