Otaku Engineer in Great Tang Dynasty

　　 After lunch, Li Zexuan remembered that in the morning Han Yuxi wanted to let herself taste the newly brewed fruit wine, but was interrupted by Li Chengqian and Yan Shaoning.

　　 Thinking of this, Li Zexuan went to Mingyuexuan to find Han Yuxi.

　　 "Master, are you here?" Han Yuxi said with joy.

　　 "Well, isn't this being interrupted when I was preparing to taste the new wine in the morning? I came here to taste it in the afternoon." Li Zexuan nodded.

　　 "Then master, sit here, Yu Xi will pour you wine."

　　 Li Zexuan smiled and nodded, Han Yuxi walked into the back room to fetch the wine.

　　 After a while, I saw Han Yuxi holding a wine gourd and coming out with a wine glass.

　　 "Master, you taste it." Han Yuxi poured a glass of wine and handed it over.

　　 Li Zexuan took the wine glass and sniffed it lightly. A mellow scent of wild fruit penetrated into his nostrils, making him feel like he was in the middle of the fields and mountains. Li Zexuan took a sip, sweet and mellow, even though he drank it at Hanjiazhuang last time, he still had an amazing feeling when he drank it again.

　　 "Yu Xi, who did you learn this brewing craft from? I think many of the brewers in the city don't make it as good as you."

　　 Li Zexuan drank the fruit wine and couldn't help but asked in confusion.

Hearing Li Zexuan’s praise, Han Yuxi smiled and said, “Master praised, how can Yuxi’s craftsmanship be compared to the master brewers in the city. This brewing craft was taught to me by my mother. My father has always loved my mother. After my mother died, I made wine for my father."

　　 Unexpectedly, Yu Xi’s mother was still a master brewer. Li Zexuan continued to ask: "Then Yuxi, besides making fruit wine, will you make other wines?"

Han Yuxi nodded and said: "Yes, my mother also taught me white wine and sake, including Yingzhou Fushui, Wucheng Ruoxia, Hezhong Sangluo, Yuanzhou Yichun, Xingyang Tukuchun, Fuping Shi Dongchun, Jiannan Shaochun, Hedong Dry and Grape, Lingnan Yunxi Boluo, Yicheng Jiulian, Xunyang Huanshui, Qidilu Wine, etc."

　　 Han Yuxi smashed his fingers and brought the wines he could brew one by one.

　　 Li Zexuan was stunned, is this okay?

　　 "Uh, Yuxi, how can your mother make so many kinds of wine?"

Han Yuxi thought for a while, and said, "I heard my mother say that my grandfather Du Daoling was the most famous master brewer in the former Sui Dynasty during his lifetime. I learned the craftsmanship from my grandfather."

　　 Li Zexuan wondered: "Who is Wei Xuancheng? Does he have a lot of research on winemaking?"

　　 Han Yuxi's eyes widened, and she couldn't say anything: "Master, you don't even know Shang Shu Zuo Cheng Wei Zheng, do you?"

what? Wei Xuancheng turned out to be Wei Zheng. Li Zexuan had heard that Wei Zheng was not only a direct minister, but also a master brewer. He didn't expect that Han Yuxi's grandfather's winemaking skills were even higher than that of Wei Zheng. It was really amazing.

　　 "Ahem, Wei Xuancheng and Wei Shangshu don't know anyone, I'm just testing you."

　　 Li Zexuan made a random nonsense, regardless of whether Han Yuxi believed it or not, he continued to ask: "Then Yuxi, why didn't you make liquor for sale before?"

　　 Han Yuxi said sadly: "Hanjiazhuang has not enough food left over these years, so there is no extra food to make wine."

　　 Li Zexuan patted his head.

　　 "Yu Xi, do you know why I want to buy the mountain fruit wine from Hanjiazhuang at a high price?"

　　 Han Yuxi said gratefully: "Yu Xi knows that the young master is to help our Hanjiazhuang farmers. Those fruit wines are actually not worth that much money."

　　 Li Zexuan shook his head and said, "Although I have the meaning of helping Hanjiazhuang, it's not all because of this. When I was in Longhushan, I saw my master often drink a brightly colored wine.

　　 My master said that it was a kind of mixed wine invented by people on the food side. After drinking it a few times, my master felt that it tasted very special, so I figured out the recipe and brewed it myself.

　　 There is a very important ingredient in this recipe, which is mountain fruit wine. The quality of the mountain fruit wine made by Yuxi can be regarded as the top quality in the fruit wine, and it is the most ideal raw material to configure this mixed wine.

　　 That’s why I bought your mountain fruit wine at a high price, thinking that after the purchase, I will find a master brewer to make that kind of mixed wine, and it will definitely sell well in the future. "

　　 Speaking of what she is best at, Han Yuxi was also very interested and curious: "Master, what is the name of this wine? Is it really that good?"

"I heard from my master that this is called a cocktail. It is usually made temporarily while drinking. As for whether it is good or not, I don’t know how to taste wine. I don’t know. I have a soft spot, I think this wine should not taste bad." Li Zexuan continued to use Master as a shield.

　　 That's right, Li Zexuan wanted to make a cocktail. Li Zexuan and his uncle watched a movie about a plane crash in his previous life, but the specific name was forgotten. There was a black captain who wanted to drink a cocktail on the plane, but when he didn't, he just added wine to the juice as a cocktail.

　　 As a result, his uncle suddenly remembered the plot one day when he was eating at his house, so he poured half a glass of whiskey into the same amount of Huiyuan 100% orange juice, and it turned out that his uncle was enjoying it.

Later, when he was curious, he also went to the Internet to check the cocktail preparation method. Cocktails usually use rum, tequila, vodka, whiskey and other spirits as the base wine, and then mix with other auxiliary materials such as juice, egg white, milk, sugar, etc. , A beverage made by stirring or shaking. Finally, lemon slices, fruit or mint leaves can be used as decorations.

　　 Spirits can be obtained by distilling the existing liquor in the Tang Dynasty, and the fruit juice can be directly replaced with the fruit wine brewed by Han Yuxi, the effect should be better. After mixing, add some ice cubes to it. In the hot summer, Li Zexuan believes that no one with a good drink can withstand this temptation.

　　 As for how to obtain ice cubes, Li Zexuan said that such a simple question is known to any traveler. But you have to find a way to get the old man to buy a saltpeter mine first, otherwise the price of saltpeter will definitely be expensive after everyone responds.

　　 When I think about a group of Datang people, drinking cocktails, this scene is very interesting to think about!

　　 Han Yuxi heard that Li Zexuan said about the cocktail so well, she couldn't help but eager to try: "Then master, can you let Yuxi try to make this cocktail?"

　　 Li Zexuan was a little embarrassed, not because he was unwilling, but because he was reluctant to let Han Yuxi mix wine, she would definitely try to taste a lot of wine, he was afraid that Han Yuxi would get drunk.

　　 Han Yuxi saw the young master embarrassed, thinking that the young master didn't want to teach him this formula, and a trace of sadness and sadness flashed in his eyes. Hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, Master, it was Yu Xi who was rash."

Li Zexuan saw her face sullen, she didn’t know where she had misunderstood ~www.ltnovel.com~ and quickly explained: "Yu Xi, don’t get me wrong, I’m not unwilling to let you try, but I’m just worried that you will taste it when you mix drinks. Too much alcohol makes you drunk."

When Han Yuxi heard it, it turned out that she had misunderstood, her face turned from sadness to joy, and she was embarrassed and said: "Master, you don't have to worry about this. Yuxi has a special physique. Since I was young, no matter how much alcohol I drink, I will never get drunk. My father and I I don't know what's going on."

　　 Li Zexuan was shocked and stunned, is there such a thing? He has also seen on the Internet in his previous life, there is a kind of person who is born to be not drunk for a thousand cups, and it is fine to drink seven or eight catties of white wine.

　　 "Uh, Yu Xi, what you said is true?" Li Zexuan still couldn't believe it.

　　 "Of course it is true, you can ask my father if you don't believe me."

　　"Uh, uh, no, I believe it, I believe it. Then there is no problem. Yuxi, you are also a master brewer. I will copy the recipe to you later. As for the ratio of various ingredients, you can try it slowly.

After you go back to Hanjiazhuang this time, tell your father that you will come to Chang'an to help me mix the wine when some of my tasks are done. I represent my father who is trying to hire you as our bartender in Zuixianlou. The monthly salary is ten. how is it? "

　　 Teaching this formula to Han Yuxi is more reassuring than teaching others. Li Zexuan really didn't expect this thing to go so smoothly.

Han Yuxi was very surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect that she could finally help the young master, and quickly said: "Master, you have helped us so much at Hanjiazhuang, how can Yuxi ask for wages and help the young master mix drinks? Yuxi is already very happy. ."

　　 Li Zexuan insisted: "This monthly salary is what you deserve. You have to. If you don't want it, I won't help Hanjiazhuang anymore."

　　 Han Yuxi can only nod in embarrassment.
