Chapter 238 Strengths

(Sorry, I posted it backwards. For the sake of this chapter, there are still 500 words more, so don’t worry about it. I will ask the editor to see if I can transfer it. Shame~)

Pick and choose until there are really a few who can fall into Mr. Guan's eyes, and then send the gifts and work to Ouyang Kang. He is not stingy, and directly says to Mr. Guan, "Choose what you like first."

Guan Yaozu didn't choose, let Pei Yaoqing choose, "You can take whatever you want, being polite is not giving brother face."

Guan Gongzi has been sought by quite a few people recently, and his popularity index with outsiders is soaring, and his popularity index at home also remains high.In the past, people who came to his house were basically looking for the third elder of the Guan family, but now they are more likely to find ways to get around Mr. Guan.

There is no need to say more about the beauty of this.In short, Guan Gongzi is very happy, so happy that he treats money like dung, and even if it is wrong, he is willing to be a good economic man.

It's just that little Pei Lianhua was deeply moved again, how kind the senior brother was to him, and he was never forgotten for any good things.But he is very measured, at most he can pick some of the Four Treasures of the Study.When Ouyang Kang asked the boy to take back the rest of the things, Nianfu was so happy that he could see his teeth but not his eyes.

If it is said that Mr. Su Da's shocking painting has brought his reputation to a higher level, but his reputation cannot be eaten as food, and it is Ouyang Kang who really gets the most benefits.

Guan Gongzi was very generous in his actions, and the gifts he gave were not light.Mucai fans pick the ones they like and keep them, and after playing with the precious ones, they hand them over to Ouyang Kang for collection.This kid knows how to cherish things better than her, and he keeps the valuables.It made her feel more at ease than putting Nianfu on her own hands.

"If one or two of you come to ask you to frame it every month, it will be better than my business!"

That is.Young Master Ouyang nodded solemnly, and felt very embarrassed himself.Men, sure enough, you have to have an economic status to be tougher.

However, he was not stingy and praised Nianfu, "Your mushroom is also very good, and many people have come to inquire about it. But Uncle Du told me not to sell it. Stay at home and make it." A special dish, or a gift to relatives and friends in the future, is a good gift."

That's it.She felt a little regretful when she heard the blessing, but looking at the gift in her hand, she also felt that it didn't matter.

Ouyang Kang's friends are all rich people, although others will not take anything from them, but they have to keep up with the face of the relationship, and they can't be too stingy.Look at these gold beads and jade sent by others.Do you have the nerve to just have a cabbage and radish?Gotta have something to hand.

The mushrooms are cheap and easy to make.But it is really a rarity, especially in this year, how much money can the whole family and Du Chuan save by taking out this mushroom?

Thinking of this, she smiled again. "Are you saying that we are throwing mushrooms and repaying Qiong Yao?"

The children downstairs have just started learning the Book of Songs.She listened to it all day long, and she was re-educated a lot, and learned a lot of "great wisdom" from it.

But Ouyang Kang looked at her appearance as a little profiteer, so he knocked her bluntly, "It's an insult to the gentleman! You should also practice your handwriting well. Look at those few strokes that haven't been practiced yet. Even Luo Wu Stronger than you!"

Nianfu pinched back angrily, "That's because you didn't teach well!"

Then continue to teach!

Mr. Ouyang was waiting for this word.After catching someone, I started writing.Don't feel too good about touching your little hands in a fair way!



It was only later that Su Cheng heard about it.He really scoffed, "Combining the inside and the outside, raising your self-worth. All the things I play are leftovers from Lao Tzu, and this is the only idea!"

Du Chuan glanced at him, "Your students don't play with your leftovers, are you happy to play with others? After all, Akang is a boy, and he will support his family in the future. How can he always rely on Afu? I think this is very good , as long as he doesn't delay his homework, you are not allowed to mess around in front of him. He is young and thin-skinned, at least give him some face."

Su Cheng said disapprovingly, "Face is always earned by oneself, not left by others. As my Su Cheng's apprentice, you have to learn when to pick up face and when to throw it away completely. It's okay to be thin-skinned. It will get thicker after grinding. By the way, did I ask you to get him a sword? If the little boy doesn't learn some self-defense skills quickly, he will be bullied again later, and I will lose my face."

"Not yet. I went to ask today, and I said that I will get it later. But Lao Wu said that a visitor from the Western Regions came to the city just now, and brought some good swords. I asked you if you are interested in going to have a look."

Su Cheng salivated and smiled, "Then do you want me to take a look?"

Du Chuan smiled, "This year, your apprentice and Ah Fu will come to honor the New Year's goods, and with the charcoal subsidy from Wu Mian, the family can save some money. Go and see, those with less than 1000 taels make up their own minds, Come up and call me."

Su Cheng immediately put on an affectionate look, "You are the best for me."

Du Chuan couldn't help laughing, shook his head and cursed "glib", and went about his own business.

Business is good next year. Although the output of their wine shop is limited, they have to make more than usual during the New Year, or else they won't even have enough to drink for themselves.

Just arrived at the shop, the little guy came up to greet him, "Boss, boss, a military man came, and he opened his mouth to order a thousand catties of wine. I said no, but he didn't believe it, and he refused to leave there."

Du Chuan hurried over, but saw that the soldier looked very mighty, not like an ordinary soldier, so he quickly saluted and said, "Guest officer, please don't be offended, we really can't do it for a thousand catties in this small shop." Yes, even if it is made with reluctance, it is not to your liking, so don’t dare to fool people.”

The soldier frowned, "I see that there are so many wine jars in your shop that are enough for a thousand catties, why don't you sell them to me? Are you afraid that I won't pay you?"

He took out a lot of banknotes from his pocket, "Take a good look, this is the most famous and time-honored brand in the capital, pay on sight, you won't lose a penny!"

Du Chuan didn't reach out to take the money, but just smiled apologetically, "All the wine here adds up to a thousand catties, but many of them are not in time, and some people have already ordered them. We take out the most There are only two cylinders of wine, and they will be gone when they are sold out. If you want one or two hundred catties, I can barely scrape together. If there is more, there is no other way."

"Then I don't care!" The soldier was used to being rude, and he slapped the silver bill on the table, "I came to your house on the order of our general, and I came to buy a thousand catties of wine. Neither will work. No matter how you do it, try to get me a thousand catties. I have already paid for the money, and I will come to pick up the wine in ten days. Do whatever you want, but don’t mix it with water. The taste is not good. Good. If you disobey the military order, you will be killed without mercy!"

Du Chuan was in a hurry, grabbed the bank note and wanted to send it back, but the soldier jumped on his horse and ran away without giving him a chance to speak.Isn't this a strong buy and sell?Besides, in ten days, even a god can't make so much wine?

The boy asked in fear. "Boss, what should we do? If it doesn't work out, will the military master really bring someone to chop off our heads?"

Du Chuan thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said, "Didn't you hear someone say that as long as you don't mix water, the taste is okay. I'll write a list. You hurry up and bring someone back to buy these wines. I usually teach you how to taste wine Yes. Pick the good from the bad, and don’t let people trap you.”

The boy agreed and left quickly.

While Du Chuan rolled up his sleeves and was about to start work, he sent someone to call Nianfu.

Not knowing what happened here, Ouyang Kang also rushed over in a panic, "Uncle Du, what happened?"

"It's no big deal. It's just that a military master wants too much wine and is in a hurry. I want Ah Fu to help me. Girl. Can you make wine?"

"Yes." Nian Fu nodded fiercely, like a chicken pecking at rice, "I'm doing a good job of making the sweet and sour rice wine that I drink in summer!"

Du Chuan looked at her and smiled, "That's not true. But it's okay, according to your master, you're good at watching fire, right?"

That is a must, an absolute strength!

Nianfu is very confident, "Don't say too much, I can still see the fire in the eyes."

Du Chuan smiled and didn't speak. He just took her into a room, pointed to a huge wine barrel hanging in mid-air and asked her, "I want you and me to shift shifts. Watch out for such a big wine barrel." Barrel, until a thousand catties of wine is brewed, you will not be able to rest for about three days and three nights, can you do it?"

ah!Nianfu opened his mouth in shock, this bucket is the size of a small room in an ordinary house, how spectacular would it be if it were set on fire?

"Don't worry, she can do it!" Before Nianfu expressed his opinion, Ouyang Kang expressed his determination for her first, "You are here to help these few days, and I will leave the Qianqiu Banquet to me first."

Anyway, Nianfu has already decided to make tofu, the question now is what kind of tofu to make.Young Master Ouyang doesn't know how to cook, but he can help her figure out how to make this dish.

So poor Nianfu was left like this, and Ouyang Kang asked for leave for Zhu Silin.

I heard that she was going to help Du Chuan make a fire, and it was very likely that it would burn for three days and three nights. Master Zhu didn't feel bad at all, but shouted, "Don't be polite to you, Uncle Du. I just want her to try the right thing." The control of all kinds of heat will not be afraid when encountering problems in the future. Forget it, let me go there in person and let her watch alone. That girl is a spinning top, so she can't do without whipping. Anyway, she is still young, It’s not like us old people, it’s okay to survive for a few days.”

I thought I was ruthless, but I didn't expect Jiang to be hotter when he was old.

Young Master Ouyang wanted to force his family to recite blessings to make progress, but he felt distressed when he was forced too hard, and said solemnly, "After all, she is inexperienced, if she is kept watching the whole process, I'm afraid it will be a mistake. Let Uncle Du take it with you."

That's right.Anyway, Zhu Silin was persuaded, so chanting blessings would not be so hard.

But when the guy dragged the whole truckload of wine back, tasted it one by one through Du Chuan, and then mixed it according to the proportion, poured it into a super-large wine barrel, and lit it on fire, Nianfu was still shocked by the scene.

Ever seen a whole house burn in front of you?Du's steamed wine is similar to that.

Now, she finally knows why Du's wine is called "Spicy to the point of death", because it is already a preliminary distilled baijiu.But it's not completely distilled, so it's just spicy in the mouth, which is still somewhat different from the high-purity liquor of later generations.

So, Nianfu couldn't help but asked, "Uncle Du, since we are making steamed wine, why not make pure steamed wine?"

Du Chuan was taken aback, "Pure steamed wine?"

"Yeah, with such a large barrel, as long as you add a very simple drainage device to drain the steamed wine, isn't it pure steamed wine? You don't have to worry about sifting the wine every time to drink it."

Du Chuan was a little shocked, this girl dared to think!

"But do you know how much puree is needed? How expensive is the cost?"

Hmm... In retrospect, wine is indeed a luxury item, and the only thing that can still be brewed and steamed with grain in later generations is only two or three kittens, and they are all sold at a huge price.

Consider the reality of the current society, or give up?Nianfu felt a little pity.

"Anyway, there are so many things to do this time, why don't we just try it." Su Cheng came over after hearing the news, and was very interested in the pure steamed wine.His capacity for drinking is not as good as Du Chuan's, but he likes to try new things, and he likes this one. "I would like to see what the taste of pure steamed wine without sifting is."

Seeing Nianfu's regretful expression, Ouyang Kang also came to help fight for it, "Uncle Du, let's not do too much, just try a little."

Oh well.Du Chuan told everyone that he was eager to try it. According to what Nianfu said, he built a small diversion device on the lid of the wine barrel so that the smell of wine could slowly drip out. Put a jar underneath to catch it and start steaming wine. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets.
