Red Mansion: Bastards rule the roost

Chapter 75 The Essence of Wine
  Lin Daiyu was confused, so she told Zijuan what she had just said, and asked suspiciously: "What did Brother Cong say?"

After all, Zicuckoo was a few years older. She already knew the personnel and things. She understood it after just a moment's thought, and couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing non-stop.

"You are going to die. Why are you giggling? Why don't you tell me quickly." Daiyu said angrily.

Zicuckoo suppressed her laughter and said, "The most precious thing in this room, apart from the girl herself, is there another one?"

ah! Daiyu's face looked as if it were greased, so delicate and delicate that it felt hot and hot, even her ears were red. This damn Brother Cong dared to tease her like this. He was indeed a slut, shameless, despicable, and obscene. I still want myself! Go ahead and have your spring and autumn dreams, you are really a toad.

Zijuan smiled and said: "I think Third Master Cong is very different now, Second Master Bao can be compared to him."

Daiyu squinted at her and said, "Since you like him so much, how about I give you to him tomorrow?"

"Girl, I am not planning for myself, I am clearly thinking of you." Zicuckoo explained hurriedly.

Daiyu felt a little uncomfortable thinking about the poem he wrote to Baochai, and said: "Brother Cong is a wanderer. I fall in love with everyone I see, so I don't bother to pay attention to him."

Zicuckoo said: "Is Mr. Cong like this? Then why does he value Qingwen so much? Now among the girls in the house, every girl in the family is not envious of Qingwen and her eyes are about to bleed."

Daiyu was stunned, yes, he was so kind to Qingwen, so he was also kind to herself... Bah, why use the word "ye". Thinking of this, the blush that had just faded spread again.

"Girl, you should make up your mind as soon as possible. Now that there is Miss Bao in the house, there is also Miss Shi who comes here often. Maybe there will be other girls one day..."

Zijuan didn't say anything when she was interrupted by Daiyu upset: "I'm just a lonely and helpless woman. I don't have any ideas. Stop talking about this. He is who he is, and I am who I am. He loves me. Who has nothing to do with me."

  Early the next morning, Jia Cong took his wealth, stepped on a thousand-mile lamp, and went to Zhuangzi outside the city.

Sure enough, a good horse is like a good cart. It can stop when it wants and go when it wants. It can run smoothly, move like an arm and move its fingers, come and go like the wind, and gallop like a dragon.

When he arrived at Baihe Village, villagers had already followed him, led him into the village, and called Yan Fei to greet him.

I saw young men everywhere in the village taking their time to practice martial arts and build up their strength. They were shouting and humming all the time. When they saw Jia Cong coming, they ignored him and just kept practicing hard.

Anyway, Mr. Cong said, don't talk about human feelings, just your ability. It's useless to go up to say hello and show courtesy.

"They are..." Jia Cong pointed his riding whip and said with a smile.

Yan Fei said with a smile: "Ever since the third master came to establish the charter that day, none of these little guys have been practicing hard. Later, the third master sent people to send high-quality horses, clothes and weapons, and these people followed the little ones." She is like a daughter-in-law, her eyes are all red, she just wants to be a personal soldier for the third master."

Jia Cong smiled and nodded. Sure enough, there must be a brave man under the heavy reward. "I am here today for another matter. I wonder if there are carpenters and bamboo craftsmen in Zhuangzi."

"Yes. I wonder what the third master's instructions are?" Yan Fei was a little confused.

"Go to your house and speak slowly."

"Master, please."

Yanfei's main house

After dismissing everyone, Jia Cong took out the rough drawings he had made and said to Boss Qian, the bamboo carpenter Yan Fei had hired: "Look, old Qian, how much time will it take to build something like this out of bamboo and wood?" ?”

According to Yan Fei, Lao Qian's father had been a soldier of the Duke Xianrong, and had been injured dozens of times. He was the most heroic man. His son Qian Lao Qian was strictly trained by his father since he was a child, and he was loyal and responsible. He is taciturn and trustworthy.

Nowadays, although Jia Cong is afraid that his technology will be leaked, the only people he can relatively trust are the descendants of these ancestors' soldiers.

"Third Master, this strange thing looks simple, but I don't understand what kind of love object it is, and I am afraid that it will be inappropriate." Boss Qian had a bitter face and wrinkled up.

Jia Cong laughed and said: "This thing is really simple. Look, this big funnel-like thing, whether you use wood or strips, you can make it for me. I want to use other materials to make it." Place it upside down on a large pot or urn, and there must be no air leakage in the critical place."

Boss Qian nodded and said, "This is easy."

"It opens at the top and is connected with a bamboo tube. The air in the pot goes up along the bamboo tube to the long pipe here. The outside of the pipe is soaked in cold water to condense the hot air into water and pour it into the urn below. In short, this thing cannot be There’s a little bit of air leakage.”

Boss Qian understood it immediately. After all, he had been a craftsman for decades. He nodded and said: "If this is the case, it is a piece of cake. The little man has the clinker and can make it in half a day." Jia Cong said solemnly: "This is my painstaking work. It seems simple, but in fact it is extremely important. You must not leak it at all. Once it is leaked, the lifelong friendship between you and my family will be over."

Yan Fei and Qian Boss hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, saying, "Even if I die, I will never dare to reveal anything."

Jia Cong nodded and helped the two of them up: "Of course I can trust you two, otherwise I wouldn't discuss it with you. It's just that this thing is very relevant and too simple. It's obvious at a glance. Even if no one leaks it, as long as it makes people Just take one look, and that's it. And once this is done, it will be like digging up a golden mountain for the men, women, and children in Zhuangzi."

Jia Cong knew that the liquor industry in later generations was booming and making huge profits. As long as he was a little famous, there was no one who would not live stream the liquor.

Hearing how important it was, Yan Fei said decisively: "That's it. Please ask Boss Qian to move the stuff to my house immediately and cook it in my kitchen. I ordered my family to leave, leaving only my grandson Shuang Ying to guard him." , and after the third master has verified that it is correct, he will immediately tear it down and burn it, so there is no need to worry."

"Okay." Jia Cong nodded.

The two of them went to prepare separately, and within a moment they were ready.

Outside the hospital, Yan Shuangying felt like he was facing a formidable enemy. He told everyone he met that the third master had an order and no one was allowed to come near.

Yan Fei helped Boss Qian get started, and it was ready in less than two hours.

Jia Cong nodded slightly and ordered Yanfei to bring a jar of wine from home and pour it into the pot to boil.

"Watch the heat. Don't make it too hot. Just let it boil slightly." Yan Fei lit the fire himself, while Jia Cong gave guidance.

"Third Master, don't worry."

Boss Qian stared blankly at the side, puzzled, does this thing still require so much effort? It’s not like a wooden cow or a stray horse.

Within a moment, strands of wine were flowing down from the wine outlet and poured into the clay pot below.

Jia Cong beamed. At least the knowledge he learned in his previous life was put to use. Who else but himself could know the difference between the boiling points of alcohol and water in this life? So if you learn mathematics, physics and chemistry well, you won’t be afraid of traveling anywhere.

I don’t know how much money I can earn with this superficial means.

After less than half an hour, Jia Cong opened the lid, reached into the pot and scooped out some raw wine. He tasted it and found that it was as light as water. He handed it to Yan Fei and Qian Boss.

"Eh? It's turned into water! Where's the wine?" Yan Fei said in shock. Boss Qian was also stunned. A large pot of wine in front of him turned into water. What kind of trick did Mr. Cong perform?

Jia Cong laughed, took out the jar with the wine spout, picked it up and took a sip. Sure enough, it was as spicy as a knife, at least sixty degrees, but the taste was not as good as in the previous life, and it still needed to be blended.

"Try this again."

Yan Fei and the other two hurriedly took it, took a sip, and breathed heavily, "Good wine, good wine! So strong!"

"Now do you know why I am so serious? The wine is still the same wine, but the essence of the wine has been steamed out."

"Third Master is wise. This is the only one in the world. If it is prepared by a master brewer, hehe, even the Queen Mother's Yaotai Immortal Wine cannot compare." Yan Fei said with a smile.

Jia Cong smiled and said: "That's it. In the future, I plan to turn this place into a winery, specializing in the production of this wine. This work is so light and easy that the whole village will keep guarding this thing for generations, and there will be no end to it."

Yan Fei and Boss Qian flushed with excitement, knelt down and kowtowed, shouting for the third master's kindness.

"Okay, as I said before, if this thing is leaked, it will be worthless. You should dismantle these quickly." Jia Cong waved his hand.

"Don't worry, Third Master. Even if we lose our lives, we will never dare to leak this secret."

Jia Cong nodded, sealed the jar, and rode away.
