Chapter 130 Distilled liquor is king

"Uncle!" Ma Chao couldn't help being horrified when he heard Han Sui say these words!

In other words, Ma Chao has no dislike for Han Ying at all.The reason why he is so unwilling to marry Han Ying is because he has always regarded Han Sui as an enemy subconsciously.Historically, Han Sui's killing of Ma Teng's wife finally made Ma Chao feel bitter.Secondly, Ma Chao and Han Ying have no relationship foundation at all. Even though Han Ying is unparalleled in appearance, valiant and heroic, and quite a ladylike demeanor, such an arranged marriage always makes Ma Chao feel a little uncomfortable.

This guy, to be honest, is cheap!
If he had met a woman like Han Ying on the street in his previous life, Ma Chao might not have known how many times he would be able to conceive in his heart.But now that he wants to understand the truth, he starts to pretend to be reserved...

Ma Teng, Han Sui and others turned their attention to Ma Chao.Especially Han Ying, her pretty face was blushing, and she was even more beautiful.However, on this blushing delicate dimple, there is still a pair of fire-breathing eyes staring at Ma Chao!

Ma Chao was worried, and suddenly saw the wine bottle in front of him.Can't help but smile indifferently, picked up the wine jar and said: "Uncle, I just arrived today, and I gave a big gift to my nephew. My nephew can't repay me, but with this wine, my uncle can get drunk!"

"Oh? Nephew, don't underestimate Han. I'm not talented, but I like what's in this cup. If it's about getting drunk, I'm afraid the wine isn't strong enough!" Han Sui saw Ma Chao's flustered expression before, and frowned. After thinking for a while, he calmed down again.Hearing that Ma Chao invited him to drink at this moment, he went down the donkey to see what tricks Ma Chao was playing.

When Han Sui said that he could drink, he was not boasting.Jincheng is the frontier of the Han Dynasty. It is bitterly cold in winter, and it depends on spirits to warm up.Han Sui's capacity for drinking was gradually developed in Jincheng.

Ma Chao, on the other hand, was extremely confident. He suddenly opened the mud-covered wine jar, and immediately the aroma of the wine was so strong that it wafted throughout the hall.After Ma Chao poured a glass, he handed it to Han Sui.On the other hand, Han Ying, who was on the side, also forgot about being angry with Ma Chao just now, and was attracted by the strong aroma of the wine.

Han Sui took the ear cup, sniffed his nose, and suddenly his eyes lit up. The tangy aroma of the wine was much richer than the wines he had ever drunk. Just as he was about to drink it, Ma Chao stopped him: "Uncle, it's okay to taste it. The wine is strong, if you drink it in a hurry, it will hurt your body."

Han Sui burst out laughing, but after seeing Ma Chao's serious expression, he said, "Okay, I will listen to my nephew."

Taking a sip, Han Sui frowned as soon as he drank the wine, and looked at Ma Chao with gratitude.After a while, he finally let out a long breath: "What a strong wine, it's like a ball of fire."

Ma Chao laughed, what kind of strong is this? It’s only steamed once, and at most it’s about forty degrees. After three steams and four steams, it’s called strong.If you had produced alcohol in advance, maybe you would have been soaring from alcohol poisoning without me doing it...

However, compared to Han Sui, who was used to drinking brewed wine with a temperature of about ten degrees, the wine was indeed much stronger, and his comparison was not too far-fetched.

Ma Chao has long thought about brewing wine: the wine in the Han Dynasty was all brewed wine, and it was almost the same as modern beer and rice wine.If it is fruit wine, it is even more like a drink.But the ancients also favored strong wine to boost their pride.This market is the best place to expand.

When I first crossed, there were many big and small things, wars and disputes, and this matter was delayed.And a few days ago, Ma Chao ran to the arsenal with all his strength, just to let the carpenter who made the bellows for him make some distillation barrels for himself.Until today, the first steamed wine has just been produced, so Ma Chao used it to sell it to Han Sui.

"Zhuzi! This wine has such a strong aroma, and I have never tasted it as a father, so you use it as a favor?" Seeing Han Sui's appearance, Ma Teng couldn't help being moved.

Ma Chao didn't dare to neglect, and quickly poured a glass for Ma Teng too.But he didn't specifically remind Ma Teng, the reason was to make Ma Teng make a fool of himself as punishment for yelling at him.

How could Ma Teng not know Ma Chao's idea, but this wine looks refreshing and dry, how strong can it be?Ma Teng didn't believe in evil, and wanted to take a quick gulp, but seeing Ma Chao's villainous behavior, he hesitated again, so he took a little less.

As soon as the wine entered his throat, Ma Teng felt his throat burning like a fire. He was out of breath for a moment, tears flowed down, choking the wine juice everywhere, and all the impassioned words below disappeared without a trace. Two words: "Good wine!"

When Ma Teng said this, the others couldn't bear it anymore.However, they did not dare to ask Ma Chao to pour the wine.And Ma Chao knew what was going on, and waved his hand to let several maidservants come forward, and poured a cup for everyone one by one.

Having learned from the past, everyone picked up the wine one after another, tasted it cautiously, then looked at each other in unison, and nodded repeatedly: "Sure enough, sure enough, it's really strong."

Han Ying couldn't bear it anymore at this time, picked up a glass of wine and took a sip, feeling the fire in his chest and abdomen, both comfortable and uncomfortable, with a very rich expression on his face.A blush suddenly appeared on the milky white face, as bright as a burning cloud, and the eyebrows and eyes were a little bewitched.

Ma Chao was a little stunned: This little girl is already very good-looking, but unexpectedly, after drinking, it will be even more flavorful.

"Nephew, I'm afraid that you specially took out this kind of fine wine today, not just to repay uncle, right?" Han Sui is such a smart person, seeing that Ma Chao deliberately brought out the good wine that even Ma Teng hadn't tasted, How could he not know that Ma Chao still has a backup?

"Uncle is wise, what does uncle think if this wine is sold outside the Great Wall?" Ma Chao also took a sip of the distilled wine and said with a smile.

Han Sui's eyes flashed, and he fell into deep thought: Liquor is quite popular in Liangzhou and the prairie. It can be said that there are almost no men who don't drink alcohol, and even women can drink a few sips.Among them, the vast majority of warriors like spirits.Coupled with the bitter cold in the north, when the severe winter comes, if you want to go out or migrate, you need to use spirits to drive out the cold.

However, spirits are very difficult to obtain, and the production of spirits in Liangzhou and the prairie itself is too low, and the strength is not as strong as this wine.

If, as Ma Chao said, the wine is sold in Liangzhou, the prairie outside the Great Wall, or resold to the Western Regions... then this business opportunity is definitely an inexhaustible river of gold.

Han Sui was the first leader of Jincheng and even Liangzhou, and his resourcefulness was not blown out.Moreover, he is not the sour Confucian of the Central Plains. He is also very enthusiastic about making money in business: if you have money, you can buy weapons and equipment; A Chang'an, or a direct capture of Chang'an...

However, when Ma Chao said these things at this time, there must be his schemes, but it has to be said that Han Sui had no choice but to accept the wonderful bait he threw out.

"Nephew has a good eye. In this way, Liangzhou, the grasslands outside the Great Wall, and even the entire Western Regions will be fragrant for thousands of miles..." Han Sui said here, his eyes turned, and then he smiled mysteriously, and continued very proudly: "The virtuous nephew is so wise, even the ugly girl of a certain family is considered virtuous, not as good as today, so..."

'I wipe!Han Sui, you can't be so shameless!If the young master is really lustful and takes your daughter in, then don't cry! Hearing Han Sui's last words, Ma Chao was so angry that he almost jumped up and scolded his mother.
