Shu Han Confucian General of the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 30 Xuzhou Old Wine
"Huh?" Zhao Feng, who was lowering his head and scrambling to eat, suddenly noticed that Diao Chan on the opposite side was not moving, but when he looked up, he found that she was smiling, and he couldn't help but sneered, "Madam, is it too indecent for me to eat?"

Diao Chan nodded as well, and then asked with a smile, "My husband must have had a hard time on this expedition."

"It's okay!" Zhao Feng replied noncommittally: "General Zhang and General Xu won't let me eat badly, but eating out is really different from eating at home." This is what Zhao Feng said from the bottom of his heart. I remember a corrupt official who said when he was arrested in his previous life, "I'm not afraid of a clean government, I'm only afraid of continuous success." What he said was that compared with the investigation of the clean government above, I still have some means to resist being fooled; If he eats and drinks all at once, he will be overwhelmed.

"Can it be different?" Diao Chan couldn't understand Zhao Feng's words, but Zhao Feng looked up at her and said affectionately: "Of course it's different, eating with you at home is much more comfortable than eating out. "

"Husband was joking." Diao Chan blushed and lowered her head to pick up the rice. Zhao Feng was secretly amused seeing her so shy. Although the two had already had skin-to-skin relatives, as an ancient person, Diao Chan's immunity to these hot words of love was still weak.Seeing Diao Chan's shy expression, Zhao Feng was stunned for a while, and then he felt a burning desire in his lower body.After eating in two or three, I checked with the butler about the recent family affairs, and after finding out that there was nothing serious, I couldn't wait to drag Diao Chan to his room and go to Hu Tian Hu Di.

"General, Marquis of Lu Jun, please see me." After Zhao Feng had a rest today, after Zhao Feng finished grooming, he sent someone to report to Lu Hao to see him. "Please come in." Zhao Feng said hastily.Because of his meritorious service in designing the ballista before, Liu Bei actually promoted this fellow to two ranks, and now he is not the head of the village but the marquis of the army. .Not long after, Lu Hao came in, and after a few salutations, Lu Hao opened the door and said, "General, I have already made one of the two things you asked me to make last time, but the other still needs time."

"It's okay, but it's not easy to make the same thing in just one month. If I'm not wrong, what you made is a pot?" Zhao Feng speculated.The last time Zhao Feng and Zhang Fei drank together, he felt that the baijiu of this era was really not interesting enough, it was simply not as rich as the beer in the previous life.It was only later that Zhao Feng realized that liquor in this era was not distilled, so Zhao Feng recalled how to make wine in a country winery's cooking pot in his previous life, and drew a sketch. Lu Hao went to play tricks, he didn't have time to spare.

"That's right, it's the cooking pot. This subordinate made a set of it and brought it here today. Would you like to check it out, General?" Lu Hao asked. "Alright, just sit down with me in this backyard and have a look." Zhao Feng ordered. "Yes!" Lu Hao promised, and ordered his men to bring over a pile of iron and bamboo things, and then placed them in the backyard of Zhao Feng's house for installation, and finally made a strange-looking thing.It looks like a cauldron, but there is a sphere on it, and the sphere is connected to a bamboo tube.

"Husband, what are you doing?" Diao Chan had already gotten up at this time, and heard the servant tell Zhao Feng and Lu Hao that they were in the backyard, so she simply ran over to have a look, but she couldn't help being very curious when she saw such a strange thing.

"Hey, it's nothing, I just want to drink. Come on, come and buy fifty jars of good wine with me." Zhao Feng laughed. "Fifty jars?" Diao Chan was taken aback when she heard the words, but then she thought that maybe Zhao Feng wanted to drink slowly, so she wasn't surprised at all.

Not long after, two large carts of wine arrived at the door of Zhao Feng's house. Zhao Feng ordered everyone to pour the wine into the strange-looking cauldron, and then started to light the fire to brew the wine.Not long after, wine trickled out of the bamboo tube and flowed into a large wine jar prepared below, and at the same time exuded an intoxicating aroma. "This wine seems to be very powerful." Diao Chan seldom drank, just smelling it made her feel a little dizzy, and she didn't dare to wait any longer.

After wasting the whole day, I finally purified twenty jars of the fifty jars of wine. Although I only got four jars of newly-made baijiu, the attractive aroma of the wine was stronger than the original baijiu. how many times. "Good wine!" Zhao Feng scooped up a bowl, tasted it for a while, and couldn't help but praise it. This is really made of pure natural green. Zhao Feng seemed to have seen Zhang Fei's expression when he saw the wine tomorrow, so he couldn't help laughing.

After finishing his official business the next day, Zhao Feng grabbed Zhang Fei and said, "Third General, Feng just got a few jars of good wine, how about going to your house to have a taste tonight?" Those who did not agree, nodded immediately.

"Good wine!" As soon as Zhang Fei opened the two jars of white wine brought by Zhao Feng at night, the enticing aroma of the wine immediately filled the whole room.Zhang Fei is a master of wine, and he knew it was a rare good wine as soon as he smelled it.After scooping up a bowl and tasting it, Zhang Fei's expression tightened at first, but after he swallowed it, he had an aftertaste. "It's really a rare good wine in the world, no, it's the best wine Zhang Fei has ever drunk in his life." Zhang Fei said with a rare sigh.

"Then why are the three generals sighing so much?" Zhao Feng asked curiously.

"After drinking this kind of good wine, I'm afraid that if I drink other wine in the future, it won't taste good. I'm afraid I won't be able to drink this wine in the future." Zhang Fei sighed. "Huh?" Zhao Feng was dumbfounded by this answer, but then he remembered that Xue Jiayan in "God of Cookery" did the same thing after eating a meal of ecstasy, not to mention Zhang Fei, the number one alcoholic in the world.

"The three generals, why worry too much, I actually made this wine myself." Zhao Feng lowered his voice and whispered. "You made it?" Zhang Fei, who was a little depressed at first, was immediately refreshed when he heard this, and then put on a sincere smile, patted Zhao Feng on the shoulder and said: "Bo Tao, you and I have a good relationship. Brothers also Not too much, how about a jar every day?" The expression was like that of a child begging for candy from an adult, and Zhao Feng felt chills when he saw it.

"Of course there is no problem." Zhao Feng smiled, and then asked: "Third General, if you drink the ordinary wine after drinking this wine, how would it taste?"

"Then wait for liquor, it doesn't matter if you don't drink it in the future." Zhang Fei didn't know why Zhao Feng asked this question, but he answered honestly.

"Yes, I believe that people who are good at wine will do the same after drinking this wine. Although the method of brewing such good wine is simple, only I know it. If we can cooperate with Mi's stores scattered all over the country to sell it widely , I think it can bring me a lot of income in Xuzhou." Zhao Feng then revealed his real purpose, joking that he is now a dignified general in Xuzhou, how could he work so hard for his personal drinking.

"It makes sense!" Zhang Fei is not a fool, he understood the key point after thinking about it for a while, and then he said seriously: "I didn't expect Bo Tao to be so far-sighted and far-sighted. Yuan Shengfei, a drunkard, is really ashamed."

"The three generals are serious. Come on, drink." Zhao Feng hurriedly changed the topic. When Zhang Fei heard the word "drink", he immediately changed back to his original color as a drunkard, and drank freely. In the end, the two altars of wine Zhao Feng brought basically Zhang Sanye had to endure the whole thing, and after drinking, he simply lay down in the lobby of his house and fell asleep soundly.The servants in Zhang Fei's house seemed to be used to it, so the two servants carried Zhang Fei back to the house to sleep, and the housekeeper sent Zhao Feng home.

The next day, Zhao Feng took another jar of freshly brewed liquor and went with Zhang Fei to meet Liu Bei. "Brother, this wine is really rare in the world. Bo Tao said that if it can be produced on a large scale, it will definitely bring me a lot of income in Xuzhou." Zhang Fei yelled.

"Really?" Liu Bei couldn't believe it, and quickly ordered someone to share the baijiu with everyone in the government office for tasting and identification. "Huh?" Everyone was a little bit overwhelmed at the first entrance, but it was difficult to spit it out in public, so they had to swallow it, and found that the aftertaste was endless. "It's really good wine!" Jian Yong was the first to sigh, and the rest of the people also agreed, so Guan Yu didn't speak, but his face was obviously redder.

"Zizhong, with this kind of good wine, how much can Xuzhou increase its income every year?" Liu Bei, who came back to his senses, hurriedly asked his brother-in-law who is good at financial management. "Combining with my Mi family's shops across the country, it can increase by at least [-]%!" Mi Zhu thought for a while, seeing everyone's admiration, he quickly added: "However, this method of brewing wine must be kept secret, if others know , then you won’t be able to earn so much.” Mi Zhu couldn’t help but use the tone of talking about business, and he didn’t realize it until he saw everyone laughing, and couldn’t help being amused by his impatience.

"This is nature. This is the method of brewing wine. It has both pictures and texts. Zizhong, you can take a closer look." After Zhao Feng finished speaking, he took out a roll of paper from his arms and handed it to Mi Zhu. His understanding is deeper than that of Mi Zhu.Mi Zhu took it and looked at it in admiration, then looked up at Zhao Feng and said: "You will not be rewarded for no merit, even if General Zhao sent it to Mi Zhu for free, if I keep it for myself, I will feel uneasy. How about it, in the future, my Mi family will sell wine. I would like to share [-]% of the profit with Bo Tao, but I don't know if this wine has a name?"

"But not yet." Zhao Feng smiled, but he felt secretly refreshed: You can get [-]% of the profit without any effort. Sure enough, science and technology are the primary productive forces!

"Since there is no name, please give me a name." Mi Zhu turned to Liu Bei and said, knowing the way of being a minister, he understood that he should not forget the leader at this time.However, Liu Bei was in a good mood, so he simply said: "The third brother is my number one alcoholic in Xuzhou, why don't you name this fine wine?"

"Me?" Zhang Fei was also unexpected to Liu Bei's words, and then he grinned and said, "What else can I call it, Xuzhou Old Bar!"

"Xuzhou Old Wine? Haha!" Everyone roared with laughter.At this moment, a small school quickly walked into the lobby, "My lord, there is an urgent military situation!" The visitor presented a letter to Liu Bei while reporting.Liu Bei took it apart and looked at it, but he was silent. After a while, he raised his head and said to everyone: "Cao Cao has lost."
