After the stove was installed, the room was very warm, and it was enough to sleep at night with a quilt. Luo Zining didn't even wear long johns, and used an old T-shirt from the supermarket to make pajamas.
It wasn't cold in the room at night, Luo Zining stopped crawling into Huo Lingzhi's arms after falling asleep, and spread out on the bed in big letters.
But the bed was too small for him to flex his muscles.
In his sleep, Huo Lingzhi would put his arms on his chest, and then put his legs on Huo Lingzhi's waist.
Huo Lingzhi was woken up by him and grabbed his hands and feet impatiently.
Maybe Luo Zining had formed a habit during this time, as long as Huo Lingzhi grabbed his wrist, he would subconsciously get into Huo Lingzhi's arms, hugging Huo Lingzhi like a koala.
Huo Lingzhi got used to being hugged by him for so many days, but felt that this posture was normal, so he pulled the quilt over them and fell asleep.
The old craftsman's family came sooner than he expected. He asked Uncle Chen to prepare a small yard for his family, and asked them to install a stove and make the still after taking measures to keep warm.
After all the people in the house had used the stove, Luo Zining went to the supermarket by luck. He wanted to see if the task was completed.
The condition of the task is that no one in the palace can freeze to death. He suspects that as long as he, the prince and all the servants are kept warm, the task will be completed.
After entering the supermarket, the appearance of the supermarket really changed!
The previously gray areas of rice, flour, grain, oil, fruits and vegetables have all brightened up!
The tobacco and alcohol shelves on the first floor, as well as the two freezers and beverage coolers at the door were also lit.
There are two freezers, one for cold drinks and ice cream, and the other for frozen fish balls and fried semi-finished products.
Almost all of the first floor is lit up, and with these things on the first floor, next spring, he will be able to plant potatoes and corn.
He took a bottle of Coke and drank a few swigs. After drinking well, he went to the cashier, just in time to see that the task on the notebook had changed.
"Repair the palace."
Just these four simple words, but it is more difficult than the previous task, because the palace is too big, and if you want to repair the whole thing, the five thousand taels of silver in the palace must not be enough.
And he also needs to install fireplaces and fire walls in all the houses, which is not a small sum. The other rooms of the servants need to be equipped with heated kangs, and the main house of him and the prince will not be installed with heated kangs., the dust is too much, he is going to get an ancient version of floor heating, he can run around the house with bare feet.
There is no brick factory in the fief, only bricks are not reliable, he wants to make cement, "money, money, money, money is needed."
He took another apple casually and took a bite. The sweet taste filled his mouth and calmed him down. "It's better to get out the white wine first, and use this to make money."
After he came out of the supermarket, he went to the house to make distiller's koji non-stop, and he also urged the craftsmen to speed up the pot for distilling liquor.
He tried a little bit first, and did it all by himself without asking others to help.
Uncle Chen was so busy with this, he peeked outside the kitchen to see what Luo Zining was doing, and then ran to the prince to report, "Princess, he has been busy in the kitchen for several days, soak the sorghum for a whileIt can be steamed, and even sprinkled things on it, saying that it is to make wine that is as clear as to the late emperor in exchange for a better future?"
Uncle Chen took out a jug of wine he brought from the capital and poured it for the prince, "The wine in the palace is not as good as he said, and this old slave doesn't believe that the wine he makes can be better than the wine given by the emperor.."
Huo Lingzhi picked up the glass of wine, but his eyes fell on the plastic sheet and the novelty stove, and he said after a long time: "Maybe he can really make some tricks."
Chen Boxin said that their prince was really stunned, and he could believe it.
After he came out from Huo Lingzhi's side, he ran to the kitchen again. Today, Luo Zining had already started trying to put the processed sorghum into the distiller, and was going to have a try.
It is also the first time for him to do it, and he follows the tutorials he read on the Internet throughout the whole process.
Uncle Chen came over to see that he really looked decent, and asked curiously, "Master, have you brewed wine at home before?"
"No, it's my first time here." Luo Zining told him, "I saw an ancient book in my dowry. It contains some methods of making wine. It is probably a family heirloom of my family."
"Will it be successful for the first time?" Uncle Chen felt that even if the princess really had an ancient book, the content in that book would be nonsense. If there had been such a clear and translucent wine before, it would have been famous all over the could I not have heard of it.
"I never thought I would succeed the first time, but failure is the mother of success, so I really can't do it a few more times." Luo Zining glanced at Uncle Chen who was beside him with disbelief written all over his face, "If you are free, just help me burn firewood, don't make sarcastic remarks here."
Uncle Chen reluctantly helped to light the fire, thinking that he would fail if he failed, the concubine had something to do to toss about these things, if the concubine was too free, maybe she would have to go out and mess around.
Although the prince is disabled now, it is not the reason for the princess to cuckold him.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, as if Luo Zining really put ten or eight green hats on the prince.
At this moment, he smelled a scent, smelling like wine, but it was different from the wine they drank before. Could it be that the princess really made it?
He looked up and watched Luo Zining took a bowl to catch the distilled wine.
Luo Zining specially took a faucet from the supermarket and connected it to the rectifier, so that it is more convenient for the wine to flow out. After seeing the faucet, the craftsman also found it novel, and said he wanted to go back and study how to do it, Luo Zining agreed.
As soon as the faucet was turned on, the fragrant wine flowed out.
It smelled even more fragrant than the bottled liquor he sold in the supermarket, and Uncle Chen also came over and exclaimed in surprise, "It smells so good! But it's not white, why is it called liquor?"
Luo Zining looked at him sideways: "In your opinion, what should it be called?"
"This wine is clear and translucent, it might as well be called bright wine." Chen Bo said.
"...Baijiu is better." Luo Zining took a large bowl of wine and turned around to pour it, and then asked Chen Bo to take a jar to continue drinking.
"Master, why did you pour out the big bowl? If you think you can't drink it, you can give it to me." Uncle Chen went to get the jar, crying inwardly.
"You can't drink the head wine and the tail wine." The wine making tutorials that Luo Zining checked all said that the head wine and the tail wine should not be drunk, and he didn't need to use his own health to experiment.
The wine in the back took a whole jar, and he also poured out the rest of the tail wine.
Chen Bo smelled the smell of wine and was so hungry that he wanted to ask Luo Zining for a drink.
It is said that the smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. He just made the distilled liquor in the kitchen, and the aroma wafted all over the yard. Chen Er, a little clever ghost, also ran over, "Master, the wine is ready!"!smell good!"
Immediately afterwards, several other servants also ran over to watch the excitement, and Luo Zining could hear the sound of several people swallowing saliva frantically.
When Chen Er heard Luo Zining calling him, he quickly took a breath, "Master, did you call me?"
He was full of anticipation, thinking that the princess asked him to taste the first bite. During this time, he had been circling around the princess. Chen Bo also said that he was ashamed like a pug dog. Now it seems that he was not lost in vain.
"Did you catch a mouse yesterday?" Luo Zining asked him.
"Well, I caught it." Chen Er didn't know what Luo Zining was going to do, but he still brought a small wooden box, and when he opened it, there was a big gray mouse inside.
Except for Chen Da and Chen Er who were not afraid of mice, the rest of them took a step back in fright, and some even let out a low scream.
Luo Zining was also a little afraid of this thing, and took a step back, "Chen Er, try feeding it some wine."
"Feed it?" Chen Er's eyes widened, he didn't even take a sip first, why did he feed the mouse first?Is it some special ceremony?
He turned his head to look at Uncle Chen. Uncle Chen had just watched Luo Zining pour down a large bowl of wine, and he was still complaining, and he had no time to talk to Chen Er.
"Let it test the poison, after you feed it, observe it for 24 hours..." Luo Zining paused, "No, it's twelve hours, after twelve hours it's not dead, let's drink it again."
It was his first time making wine, and he didn't know if his wine was drinkable, so he couldn't let these people take the risk to taste it.
"Everyone leave first." Luo Zining didn't let go when he saw everyone's disappointed expressions, but in the end he let Zhao Xiaoyu stay, "This wine should be finished if nothing happens, let Zhuzi take you to the vegetable market tomorrowLet's have a look, let's cook something good tonight, let's celebrate together."
"There are not many vegetables here in winter, only some radishes and cabbage, which are still stored in the cellar, but there is a lot of meat, a lot of game from the mountains." Zhao Xiaoyu heard that there will be good wine and meat eating, the excited little face turned red.
Luo Zining waved his hand: "Try to buy some domesticated meat, who knows if wild animals carry any virus."
Since Zhao Xiaoyu came to the palace, she put on cotton padded clothes and lived in such a warm house. She can eat every meal, and she hasn't been beaten or scolded by her master. Now she adores Luo Zining very much.
Luo Zining said that she only eats domestic animals, so she will listen to Luo Zining, "Okay!"
Ever since he fed the mouse wine, Chen Er couldn't help it. After a while, he took a look to see if it was dead. He still prayed to God and worshiped Buddha in his heart, "God bless, we must not let this damn mouse die."
Uncle Chen: "... Should he die?"
Chen Er hates mice and is used to saying damn mice, but now this mouse can't die, "This wine is quite strong, you are a little confused when you look at the mice. Our princess is so powerful, she deserves to be the champion."
Uncle Chen curled his lips, "Whether this wine is drinkable or not is up for debate. Don't just drink it because it looks good. It's a pity for the food."
Chen Er has a lot of opinions on his father recently: "Father, you told us before that domestic servants should not speak ill of the master's family in private. Why do you keep speaking ill of the princess?"
Uncle Chen became a little anxious, and hit his son on the head: "The prince is our master. Have you forgotten how the princess used words to run on the prince and beat you on the way we came here? You really don't remember to eat."
Chen Da was afraid that Chen Er would be beaten, so he quickly pulled Chen Er over, "Second brother, stop talking and go back to sleep, the mouse is timid, and the mouse was not poisoned to death, and you scared it to death."
"Yes, this is a big deal, so turn on the lights and go to sleep." Chen Er hurriedly undressed and went to bed.
...
Huo Lingzhi, as the only person in the palace who did not go to the kitchen, did not see what the distilled liquor looked like, but when Luo Zining returned to the room, the smell of wine was all over his body. It seems that this liquor really made Luo Zining giveMade it.
Huo Lingzhi said before that he wanted to give Luo Zining a divorce letter, but Luo Zining didn't want it, and said that if he married him, he would be his, and he would never leave her husband in this life.
But he still remembered that when they got married in Beijing, Luo Zining's look of being so humiliated that he wanted to bump into a pillar, it was too contradictory.
He didn't believe that a person could change so quickly. He suspected that Luo Zining was pretending. The reason why he didn't want to divorce was to endure it. Because he had no money, he might as well stay in the palace after leaving him.
But now that Luo Zining's wine is ready, when the wine makes money, it's time for him to leave.
In his previous life, Huo Lingzhi was abused by the original owner, and he was bullied so badly that he finally cut off the original owner's head, but after getting along during this time, he didn't have any deep hatred for Luo Lingzhi had no intention of making things difficult for others.
The author has something to say:
Uncle Chen with the evil mother-in-law's script in his hand: "The princess is so beautiful, she must be restless, and it's only a matter of time before she cuckolds the prince!"What should I do if the concubine abandons the prince after she becomes powerful?"
Early the next morning, Chen Er came to look for Luo Zining in a hurry, and Luo Zining sank to the bottom of the valley, "The mouse is dead?"
Chen Er shook his head: "No, he's sleeping soundly. This alcohol is quite strong, and this mouse is different from a human. Master, let me try a bar."
Seeing him like that, Luo Zining said, "Are you trying to test poison? Are you a glutton?"
"Master, let me come. I'm a latecomer. My life is not as precious as theirs." Zhao Xiaoyu squeezed forward and said.
"How can I let you, a little girl, take risks. If you want to come, I will come." Even Chen Da came to join in the fun.
Luo Zining smiled and shook his head, "Don't worry, let's drink together at night, find a big table, and move to your house, your house is big, Xiaoyu can make a good table at night, let's celebrate together."
"How can we sit with the master, there are no rules at all." Uncle Chen came over and said quietly.
Luo Zining felt that Uncle Chen's words were aimed at himself, "Our palace is like this, and there are no rules. If I say eat together, I will eat together. Otherwise, if we eat, you go to stand guard at the gate?"
Uncle Chen's face was blackened by him, and he wanted to refute, but Luo Zining was a princess, one level higher than him, and it was useless for him to go to the prince's side to file a complaint, so he could only reluctantly shut up.
After he explained the task, Zhu Zi took Zhao Xiaoyu and Chen Er out to do the shopping, Chen Da and Chen Bo moved the table, and Xiao Cui and Xiao Hong prepared the dishes.
In the afternoon they started to pack the ingredients. Luo Zining went back to the room and checked the temperature in the room. It was already close to 30 degrees. Could it be possible to grow some vegetables at this temperature?
He remembers that plastic greenhouses are used to grow vegetables in the countryside in winter. The windows of his house are sealed with plastic sheets, so it can also be used as a plastic greenhouse.
He set his eyes on the desk by the window. This desk is not used very much at ordinary times. Huo Lingzhi occasionally uses it to read books, and he writes some future plans on it.
However, there is still a dining table in the house, which can be used as a desk when not eating, so he plans to use the table by the window to grow some vegetables.
He went to the supermarket to disassemble a few millet peppers to do the experiment. Firstly, there are a lot of millet peppers. If he fails, he will not be very distressed. Second, he is a patient who loves spicy food. After coming to ancient times, there is no pepper to eat., his appetite is much smaller than before.
He put the chili seeds away carefully, and then went to get five small disposable paper cups. He made a small opening under the quilt to allow water to leak. He remembered that when he was a child, his grandmother used this kind of disposable cups to grow vegetables, waiting for the small vegetable seedlings to move it from the paper cup to the vegetable garden.
He can first grow the pepper seedlings in small paper cups and then move them to larger pots for planting.
He has never grown vegetables, everything is just crossing the river by feeling the stones.
After Luo Zining went out, he called Chen Da, "Take the shovel and follow me."
Chen Da is not as clever as Chen Er, and has a dull personality, but he is strong and honest, and he will not always ask questions like Chen Bo, and he will do whatever he is asked to do.
Luo Zining took him to the back garden of the palace, where he and Chen Da used firewood to warm the soil on a piece of land, so that digging would be he shoveled some soil with a shovel and transported it back, filled each of his small paper cups with soil and put them on the table for later use.
Huo Lingzhi's legs and feet are inconvenient now, and he just sits in the house reading a book or goes to the yard to watch the snow, or meditates every day.
Uncle Chen didn't know what he was doing outside, so he didn't come to push Huo Lingzhi out, so Huo Lingzhi stayed inside and was forced to watch Luo Zining grow vegetables.
"What did you plant?" Huo Lingzhi asked him.
"Eh..." Luo Zining couldn't just say chili, how could he explain it when he said it, "Well, I met a Hu merchant selling things on the road before, and bought a few seeds. It is said that they are vegetables, or we don't have them here.s things."
"I don't know what it is?" Huo Lingzhi asked him.
"It's because I don't know what can be planted, so I'm surprised." Luo Zining put the seeds in a small plate, put some water in the small plate, and finally covered it with a breathable gauze.
When he was a child, he saw his grandma use this method to germinate the seeds, and then moved them into small cups after germination.
If he had known that he would grow vegetables by himself now, he would have learned from his grandma when he was a child.
"Have you made your wine?" Huo Lingzhi asked him.
"Well, drink it together with dinner at night, the prince's injury is almost healed, you can drink two more glasses." Luo Zining raised the corners of his mouth, with a little pride in his tone: "It's definitely better than what you drank before.."
Huo Lingzhi: "What are your plans in the future?"
"First make more at home, then find a caravan to sell and see if it sells well. If it sells well, I will open a winery and recruit all the poor people in the fief to work." Luo ZiNing knows that his wine is the first one in this world, if the secrecy work is done well, there will be no second one in a short time, and he will definitely be able to buy it well.
"When I went out, I only visited the busiest street. That street was in a mess, not to mention other poor places. After I made money, I would do urban reconstruction and build houses and streets in ." The more Luo Zining talked, the more excited he was, he had played a game before, which was to plan at will on a city map, where he could build houses, farm fields, open private schools and restaurants, and watch a city being built from scratchThe prosperity is beautiful, and he has a sense of accomplishment. Now he really has a city to plan. Although the reality is more difficult than the game, but it will be more fulfilling when it is done.
Luo Zining blushed as he spoke, and turned his head to see that Huo Lingzhi was looking at him with probing eyes.
"What's wrong? Do you think I'm talking big?" Luo Zining scratched his head embarrassedly and asked him.
"I just feel that you are very different from before. You used to be selfish and mean. It's hard to think that you would think of the poor people in the city." Huo Lingzhi looked at him with eyes that seemed to see through you get along day and night, this king will definitely suspect that you have changed someone."
When Luo Zining heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and his feet were going limp from fear.
Huo Lingzhi won't find out that he has changed, right?
Without the status of a princess, penniless, and no place to stay, no matter how ambitious he is, it is useless.
He stammered and explained: "Actually, I used to be a fake. If I didn't have the heart to serve the country, why would I be number one in the exam? You also know that the emperor doesn't want to see me, so he sent me to this bitter cold place."Come here, but my family members are still in the capital, if I treat you well, I'm afraid the emperor will be even more upset and it will be detrimental to my family members."
Luo Zining didn't make a draft in advance, and the explanation was messed up. He didn't know if Huo Lingzhi believed it. After that, Huo Lingzhi didn't speak anymore, and the room fell into a deathly silence.
Fortunately, Chen Er came over to interrupt the dead silence in the house, "Master, the food is ready, let's go over."
"You go first, I'll push the prince there." Luo Zining walked around behind Huo Lingzhi, pushing his wheelchair outside.
"The emperor wants to see us spend our lives poorly. The ideas you just had are good, but if they come true, what do you think he will do?" Huo Lingzhi's tone seemed to be a question, but he was actuallyWarn, warn him not to be too outstanding.
It was only then that Luo Zining thought of an important thing, the emperor's eyeliner on the fief.
According to the regulations of this dynasty, the princes have absolute dominance over the land, population, production and taxation of the fief, and they can even raise soldiers in the fief.
But this has nothing to do with Huo Lingzhi. Not only can he not raise soldiers, but the management of the fief is still in the hands of the magistrate.
The magistrate is also listening to the emperor's orders, and their every move is in the emperor's eyes. If they make a big move, they don't know how they will die tomorrow.
Luo Zining was quite excited when he first traveled through time. He is a princess, and the prince is disabled, so he naturally became the manager of this his limitations is really too much.
Luo Zining: "Otherwise, I'll buy the magistrate, and I'll be the boss behind the winery, making people think that the winery belongs to someone else."
Huo Lingzhi: "Fantasy."
"Is it whimsical? You'll know if you do it." Luo Zining thought, Huo Lingzhi must have been deceived by the magistrate's disguise when he first came here, but he has read the original text and knows how much the magistrate loves the money, the prefect can even sell his soul to him.
But besides the magistrate, the emperor seems to have other eyeliners, but that person is relatively hidden, and he didn't explain who that person was until the end of the novel. He suspects that the author forgot about this small character and didn't write it out.
However, he guessed that the other eyeliner should not be someone who is close to the prince, otherwise how could the emperor not know about the prince secretly raising soldiers.
"You can do whatever you want. This king has only one request, not to drag down the family." Huo Lingzhi said coldly, as if the two of them were not married.
"Husband, we are one as a husband and wife, I will definitely not harm you." Luo Zining was telling the truth, Huo Lingzhi was equivalent to his ID card, without his ID card, he would be unable to move a single step.
...
In the afternoon, Zhao Xiaoyu led the servants at home to cook a large table of meals.
Luo Zining discovered that Zhao Xiaoyu had leadership skills, not only let Xiaocui and Xiaohong do helpers, but also directed Chen Er to pluck chicken feathers, Chen Da to burn firewood, and even Chen Bo assigned a job of scraping fish scales.
Except for Luo Zining and Huo Lingzhi, everyone in the family helped with the meal.
Luo Zining called the craftsman's family over, but the old craftsman didn't call his wife and daughter over. There are so many men here, he was worried about letting his daughter over.
Luo Zining didn't push others, so he asked someone to deliver some food to their family, and asked everyone to sit down, "Before we eat, let me say a few words."
After Luo Zining finished speaking, he felt like he was speaking like a leader. Before graduation, he also went to a large company as an intern. When he first joined the company, he just caught up with the company dinner. Before the meal, the leader gave a long speech. ColleaguesAnd flattering.
After the whole meal, he was quite uncomfortable after eating. After the leader finished speaking, he asked a few of them to introduce themselves. The words in the mouth of the other newcomers were the is like a mentally retarded child.
After the newcomers introduced themselves, those old colleagues were very discerning. They not only toasted the leader, but also said the toast words, and they were very happy to praise the leader.
Luo Zining was dumbfounded. These words made him say that he could pick out two sets of Barbie castles with his toes.
After eating, he went back and thought about it all night, and felt that he was not suitable for this kind of workplace life, so he resigned and went home to open a supermarket to lie flat.
Now how can he become the person he hates the most, so he said: "Let me make a long story short, this wine cannot be made without your help, and I will not hide it from you. After that, I plan to start a wine business. I am can't make much wine, and you have to suffer, and we all work hard to live a good life together."
After he finished speaking, he handed the wine to Chen Er and asked him to pour a glass for everyone.
The craftsman's family originally went to the palace when they had nowhere to go. They thought they would have their tongues cut off, but they didn't expect the princess to treat them kindly, give them a house to live in, and food for them. They never beat or scolded them. Every time they spoke to them, they spoke in a respectful tone., They felt the dignity of being human for the first time.
I thought this was good enough, but I didn't expect the concubine to make such a good wine and share it with them. The concubine is really a bodhisattva, and they will definitely serve Luo Zining wholeheartedly in the future!
After the wine was poured into the glass, the aroma rushed to the face, and no one dared to pick it up to taste, and stared at the wine in the glass without blinking. This is not their common wine, it is simply fine wineLiquid.
Chen Er couldn't help but speak out, Luo Zining thought for a while: "We might as well call it Qiongjiang Wine, or Yuye Wine..."
When talking about Yuye wine, he thought of court Yuye wine, and couldn't help laughing, but the word palace must not be used in their current situation, "Then it's called Yuye bar."
"Good name." Chen Er applauded, looked at Luo Zining expectantly and said it's time to drink.
Luo Zining didn't blot anymore, and raised his wine glass to toast with them.
Luo Zining didn't want to drink baijiu before, but this is the wine he brewed himself, which has a different meaning, so he just drank it.
The hot wine flowed down his throat, choking him until he coughed. Others were reluctant to drink it like him, so they sipped it in small sips, and couldn't help laughing when they saw him like this.
He was not angry either, and laughed along with everyone.
After drinking and eating, Luo Zining got a little dizzy from drinking and wanted to go for a walk to let off the smell of alcohol. The others were also staggering from drinking, but Uncle Chen was still a little sober, and pushed the prince back to his room to take care of him.
He didn't call anyone else, and went to wander in the back garden alone. There were no flowers and plants to see in winter, but there were many pine trees in the garden, and the appearance of snow on the pine branches was quite artistic. He felt that he could write a poem after looking at it for a out.
However, he didn't have the ability to compose poetry. After reading a few poems, he heard the flapping of wings, and a pigeon crashed into his arms. "Are there any pigeons in this cold weather?"
He thought he was drunk and made a mistake, and after holding the pigeon in his hand, he realized that there was still a letter tied to the pigeon's leg. He took out the letter and looked at it, and the wine instantly sobered up, "It turns out that I am the eyeliner that the emperor placed next to the prince.?!"
He never thought that the original owner was actually the emperor's eyeliner who planted beside Huo Lingzhi.
He remembered that the emperor had a very clear understanding of Huo Lingzhi's daily life in the early days. Even if the magistrate monitored Huo Lingzhi, he couldn't even know what was going on at home.
Later, when Huo Lingzhi's leg recovered, the first thing to do was to cut off the original owner. After that, the emperor would still receive news from Huo Lingzhi, but it was all trivial matters.
He had a bold hypothesis. The original owner was exposed by Huo Lingzhi. After Huo Lingzhi killed the original owner, he imitated the original owner's notes and sent a message to the emperor?
There was a chill in his heart, and he was afraid that his behavior just now had been seen and reported to Huo Lingzhi.
He quickly took the pigeon to his supermarket. This was a subconscious action he made when he was in a hurry. After entering the supermarket, he realized that he had really brought the pigeon in.
However, when he usually goes into the supermarket, he is still outside in the eyes of outsiders. What if people outside can still see him holding a pigeon in his hand?
He put the pigeon on the table, and then went out to have a look. After he went out, he found that the pigeon was no longer in his hand.
It turned out that he could put things from this world in the supermarket, so he picked up a stone and put it back in the supermarket, and the stone can also be put in the supermarket.
Animals and objects can be brought in, so can the person also be brought in.
However, he only thought about it in his heart, and didn't really intend to bring people in. This is his secret base, and he must not let others know at any time.
When he came in, he saw the pigeon standing on the table, looking around with a pair of curious eyes, such a small head could not think about where it was, but it was very good, standing on the table and not running .
He sat on the chair and read the letter. The general content of the letter was that the emperor asked him to pass on what Huo Lingzhi had done recently, and told him not to forget to prescribe medicine to Huo Ling.
This medicine is a kind of chronic medicine, a little bit every month, and the person who takes the medicine will die without knowing it after five years.
The medicine was wrapped in the letter paper, a small grain, he thought some flying insect had flown into the paper, but he didn't take it seriously, it was blown away in one breath when he opened the paper.
But even if the medicine is not lost, he will not feed Huo Lingzhi the medicine. The letter said that the emperor threatened the original owner's resignation, he can return to the capital to be an official.
Although Luo Zining didn't know that the original owner was working for the emperor, he knew that the original owner's parents had been killed by the emperor long ago, and even if Huo Lingzhi really died, he would not fulfill his promise to let him go back to be an official.
But since he is the emperor's eyeliner, then his constraints are much less. He can do whatever he wants, and he can just make up things when he reports to the emperor.
Moreover, he obtained a skill after time travelling, and his handwriting was exactly the same as the original owner's.
He immediately wrote a letter to the emperor, saying that the medicine had been prescribed on time, and that he tortured Huo Lingzhi every day, drove Huo Lingzhi to the servant's room, and gave him food and didn't take long to be frozen to death.
After he finished writing the letter, he fed the pigeon some food and built a small nest for it. "It's too dangerous to start after dark, so wait until dawn."
The pigeon tilted its head to look at him, and made a cooing sound in its throat.
...
The next day when he woke up from the wine, he asked the whole mansion to make wine together, and the whole palace was filled with the smell of wine.
When the second batch of wine was ready, it was put into jars, and there were six jars of wine in total.
He called Chen Er to pass the post to others, and asked that Boss Cheng to come over.
Chen Er heard that Luo Zining was going to sell wine yesterday. When he was shopping with Zhao Xiaoyu before, he also heard Zhao Xiaoyu talk about several major merchants in the city, and that Boss Cheng was the biggest businessman in the city.
I heard that Boss Cheng has been in business for generations, and his family is so powerful in the local area that even the prefect dare not take care of them lightly.
Chen Er worried and said to Luo Zining: "I heard that the new head of the Cheng family is not easy to provoke. He knocked out two teeth of the magistrate's brother-in-law before. I'm afraid you will be wronged by him."
Luo Zining remembered that in the original text, the magistrate's brother-in-law was bullying men and women in the fiefdom, and he didn't expect that there would be someone who could take care of him, "Then I really have to meet this hero who is doing justice for the sky, go quickly."
Boss Cheng just came back with the caravan, and when he came back, he was called over by his mother, with a look of sadness in his eyes, "People from the palace invite you to go."
Boss Cheng didn't know that a prince came to their city, "What's going on? Who is the prince?"
The mother said nervously: "My son, that is the prince, the emperor's younger brother. We must not mess with him. He told us to go there and we don't know what to do."
Boss Cheng is courageous, brave and brave. Although he is young, after his father died, he and his mother took all the family property into their own hands, and did not let the uncles take any advantage, but the people do not fight with the is no fart in front of the powerful.
It was rumored outside that Boss Cheng dared to fight against the magistrate, but secretly he would give the magistrate a large sum of money every year to eliminate disasters, "What else could it be for, isn't it just to control us for money?"
He dared to knock out two teeth of the prefect's brother-in-law before, because he knew that the prefect would not do anything to him for that useless brother-in-law. After all, the prefect regarded him as a chicken that lays golden eggs.
He thought to himself that now that a prince has come, he will have to pay an extra sum of filial piety money every year.
No matter how unconvinced he was, he was just a merchant after all, and he couldn't afford to offend the magistrate, let alone the prince.
"Mother, don't worry, I know what to do." Boss Cheng took a five hundred taels of silver and stuffed it into his lapel, and ordered his servants to prepare some gifts, and asked them to drive to the palace.
Although the Wangfu has been in disrepair for a long time and is dilapidated, the gate looks very impressive. Even Boss Cheng, who has been in business all the year round and has seen various scenes outside, would still mention it enviously every time he passes by the gate of Zuiwangfu is really magnificent.
If he were to build such a big house, not only would he not be able to afford it, but also there were a lot of regulations on merchants in this dynasty. If he dared to build such a big house, he would have to be dragged away the next day if he built it on the first to hell.
Chen Er went to pick him up at the door and led him inside.
The inside of the palace has already been cleaned, and the pavilions and pavilions look very impressive.
Luo Zining asked someone to clean a room before and used it exclusively for receiving guests.
After Boss Cheng came in, he saw a bookish man sitting directly in front of him. This man had a handsome face, and his aura was not as timid as the ordinary people here. He was full of confidence and , this may be the so-called extravagance.
He immediately knelt down and saluted, "Cao Min sees the prince."
"This is not the prince, this is our concubine. Our prince is in poor health, and the entire palace is under the control of the concubine." Chen Er deliberately said this to elevate the status of the concubine, because he was afraid that this person would look down on the concubine and bully her.
But Luo Zining frowned when he heard what Chen Er said.
When go back this time, have to train Chen Er well, and let him not casually tell strangers about his own affairs, let alone say that the prince is in poor health. Not only will outsiders look down on Huo Lingzhi, but it will be heard in Huo Lingzhi's Zhihui felt that Chen Er's mouth was not rigorous and could not be reused.
"Go and see how the dishes are doing." Luo Zining came forward after finishing speaking, telling Boss Cheng to get up and talk, don't be so reserved.
Boss Cheng also didn't understand the rules of meeting noble people, so he got up according to Luo Zining's words.
Luo Zining sized up Boss Cheng, he was quite young, tall and strong, with a wild beauty, "Boss Cheng is really a talent."
He wanted to praise the other party, draw a little distance, let the other party put down his grudges against him, and then talk about business.
Unexpectedly, Boss Cheng thought too much. He had heard a storybook before, saying that the queen mother of a certain dynasty, in order to keep her youth forever, would go to the folks to find some beautiful men to enter the palace, and having sex with them would make her skin tender and smooth.
Does this princess also have this idea?Otherwise, why did he only see one servant after entering the door, and then that servant was invited away by the princess.
Although his appearance is far from the concubine's, he is still the toughest man in the city, and the prince is not in good health. Could it be that the concubine...
"You don't have to be nervous, just sit down as you like." Luo Zining let him sit down, "I called you here today because I want to discuss something with you, and this matter is only known to you and me, not to a third person."
Boss Cheng nodded his head, "Cao Min will definitely not say anything..."
Before the second half of the sentence of refusal was uttered, Luo Zining said: "You must be a person of integrity if you can do such a big business. I came to you this time not for anything else, but to talk to ."
He clapped his hands as he spoke, and several servant girls brought up the wine jug, along with steaming food, "Let's talk while drinking."
In the past, Luo Zining hated talking about business at the wine table, but now he sells wine and has to do so.
Boss Cheng said cautiously: "If you want us to help sell the goods, just send the goods over, don't be so polite and invite us to dinner..."
"Not only to ask you to help sell goods, but also to cooperate with you to do business together. I have a secret recipe for making wine. I will provide the secret recipe. You invest your money, and we will share the money you earn according to the shares." Luo Zining calledThe man Zhao Xiaoyu came over to help open the wine jar and poured Boss Cheng a glass.
Boss Cheng was surprised when he heard the formula for making wine. Can this princess know how to make wine?There is no one in their city who knows how to make wine. If they want to drink, they can only buy it outside. Not to mention the long distance and difficult transportation, the price is also slightly expensive.
If they can also open their own winery, they don't have to go so far away to transport it back, and the princess will ask him to start a winery together. There is only one winery in the city, and it's either they want to set the price or many.
But after thinking about it, she felt something was wrong. Why did the dignified concubine want to do business with him? If she felt ashamed to do business, she could order her servants to do it. Why did she choose him, an outsider, to do it?
Is it fake to do business, is it true to want money from him?
He paid the money, but it's hard to say whether the money was used to make wine or went into the pocket of the princess. Even if the princess was really greedy for his money, could he go to the Yamen to sue the princess?Don't even know how he died by then.
He hesitated in his heart, and wanted to make up a reason to decline, but before he could say anything, he smelled a strong smell of wine, and then saw the maid pour a glass of clear and transparent white wine into the glass, heThe whole person was dumbfounded.
Although he is the richest merchant in the city, after seeing the wine in the palace, he couldn't help shouting that poverty limited his imagination.
"Boss Cheng, what do you think of this wine? Can it be sold at a high price?" Luo Zining asked him intentionally as he watched his shocked eyes almost fall into the glass.
"The high price is absolutely worth a thousand dollars!" Boss Cheng was so fascinated by the wine that he forgot that the person sitting across from him was the concubine, forgot the rules, and couldn't help taking a sip before the other party could speak.
This wine is strong, mellow, and has a taste that he has never tasted before.
The concubine did not lie to him, it was he who underestimated him and mistakenly thought that the concubine wanted to steal money from him. He regretted his thoughts just now and felt like a villain.
"How much do you think this wine is worth?" Luo Zining asked him.
"It's worth a thousand gold!" Boss Cheng is still savoring the taste in his mouth. He feels that his ancestors have accumulated virtues to have this opportunity. If he just refused without asking clearly, he will miss the opportunity and wait for the princess to drink wine with , he might not be able to afford a jar of wine in the future.
"No money." Luo Zining didn't intend to set the wine at such an expensive price. Although there are many rich people in this world, it is difficult to open up the market in the upper class, and now it is a feudal society, and the status of merchants is should I do if I attracted the attention of some dark-hearted dignitaries and snatched their recipes for making wine?
"I plan to make wine that ordinary people can drink." Luo Zining pointed to the wine jar: "We sell this jar of wine for thirty taels from the factory. You go outside and sell it to restaurants and of wine can hold five wine jugs. They can be sold pot by pot, or cup by cup. Anyway, no matter how you sell it, you won't lose money. The more people drink, the more famous we will be., business will get better and better."
Boss Cheng said distressedly: "Ordinary wine costs ten taels of silver a jar, but such a good wine costs thirty taels of silver. Isn't this doing charity?"
"If you knew how much the cost was, you would definitely call me a profiteer in your heart." Luo Zining asked the maid on the side to pour them another glass, which stunned them, so that they would be dizzyListen to him, "But I have one more condition. Not only do I want you to pay, but you also have to declare that this is your family's ancestral formula. You are not allowed to suggest to anyone that this formula has something to do with me. Can youCan you do it?"
"Our family's ancestral formula?" Boss Cheng felt that the princess in front of him seemed to be covered with a layer of golden light. The princess was actually his ancestor, and he came to the world and attached himself to the princess to help him?
"Of course I have my inconvenience, so you don't have to ask." Luo Zining pressed his cup, "If you don't agree, you don't have to drink it, and you don't have to do business, even if we haven't met todaynoodle."
"But everyone in this city and outside the city know that our family has been in business for generations, no one will believe it." Boss Cheng didn't want to leave, he wanted to drink two more drinks before leaving.
"Just say that this formula has always existed before, but it was missing two pages, and now I found it by chance." Seeing his longing face, Luo Zining let go of his cup: "If you stillHesitation, you take my remaining four jars of wine away first, you sell them first, see if they are sold well, and then make a decision, if you agree today, we will sign the contract now, and wait for the spring of next year,The winery will be built."
"Of course I agree, a fool is not willing." He was also afraid that the princess would find someone else to avoid long nights and dreams, and he hadn't finished the meal, so he signed the contract and pressed his fingerprints.
Before leaving, Luo Zining still gave him the four jars of wine, "Before the winery opens, I will still make some wine. These wines will be sold to you at the price of twenty taels a jar. You can sell them outside to have a look."How about everyone's evaluation, after the winery is opened, we will divide it according to the shares."
Boss Cheng was so happy that he took out the money, "I will choose the site of the winery when I go back, find workers, and make sure to build it beautifully."
"One more thing. This wine needs sorghum. I heard that you used to collect sorghum at a low price with the common people and sell it outside. Now you don't need to sell it outside. Let's keep it for ourselves. Go talk to some the coming year, we will harvest a large amount of sorghum and let them all be planted." Luo Zining seemed to have taken the position of factory manager and assigned tasks to the employees.
"Okay, that's great. In the past, our sorghum couldn't be sold at a high price, and we had to look at other people's cold faces when we went out. Now it's better, we can use it ourselves, and we don't have to be bullied by those people outside." ChengThe boss was so happy that his voice was loud and clear, because he didn't pay attention to etiquette after drinking too much, he called his servant to move the wine to the carriage, and left in a hurry.
Luo Zining is also very happy, the venue has basically been settled, not only can they make money, but it can also increase the employment rate of the people in the city, and it can also make the farmers in several nearby villages rich enough to eat. He has a special sense of accomplishment.
Going back happily, as soon as he reached the door of the room, he heard Uncle Chen's voice inside.
Uncle Chen: "The concubine has already brought the wild man home to drink, why are you still talking to him, my lord?"
When Luo Zining heard this, he became very angry and raised his foot to kick them, thinking that Uncle Chen is a troublemaker, why does he speak ill of him behind his back every day?
Before he kicked the door, he heard Huo Lingzhi's voice. He calmed down a bit, wanting to hear Huo Lingzhi's evaluation of him.
After all, Huo Lingzhi is the protagonist in this book, and Huo Lingzhi's attitude towards him determines his life and death. He wants to know if he has improved Huo Lingzhi's favorability towards him.
Huo Lingzhi: "You only need to report what he did, and you don't have to add your own ideas."
When Luo Zining heard this, he thought that Huo Lingzhi had been letting Uncle Chen watch his every move, but Huo Lingzhi was still reasonable and would not be easily provoked.
Uncle Chen was in a hurry, "Master, it's not that I'm prejudiced against him. Have you forgotten how he insulted you with words along the way? Your leg was injured on the battlefield fighting the invading foreign enemies. NoYou are working so hard on the front line, can he study with peace of mind and take the top prize in the imperial examination? Listening to him insulting you like that, this old servant will hate you forever."
Hearing this, Luo Zining understood why Uncle Chen always targeted him. In the original text, only a few words were mentioned about the original owner insulting and abusing Huo Lingzhi, but it was mentioned in one Lingzhi was the victim who heard the abuse with his own ears.
Just imagine, if one day he has a disabled leg and cannot walk, he will not only have to endure physical pain, but also suffer psychological 's a waste, he might have chopped this person up long ago, but Huo Lingzhi didn't do it until his legs healed, he has a really good temper.
Chen Bo and Huo Lingzhi recognized him as the original owner, and naturally imposed their hatred for the original owner on him.
He had to explain the matter clearly, otherwise Uncle Chen would whisper bad things about him in Huo Lingzhi's ear every day, even if Huo Lingzhi didn't believe it at first, what should he do if he listened too much and became brainwashed?Then everything he did was in vain.
He was raising his hand to open the door, when he heard Uncle Chen say again: "Princess, he is a man after all, we can't control him if we want to, and he can't have children yet, why don't you hurry up and take a few concubines?"Come back, check and balance the princess, you can also give you a few children, and the children will protect you when they grow up, so the princess will not dare to do anything against you."
Originally, Luo Zining wanted to patiently explain to him, but when he heard this, he became anxious immediately, and pushed the door open with a "snap", scaring Chen Bo, who hadn't finished speaking in the room, to cover his chest."Scared me."
Uncle Chen breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that it was Luo Zining who came, the expression on his face added a bit of embarrassment of being caught speaking ill of someone behind his back, "This old slave has something else to do, so let's go down first."
Luo Zining put his hands on the door frame, blocking Chen Bo's way, "I heard that Chen Er's mother died of illness a few years ago, is Chen Bo lonely? Do you want me to match you up and find another one?"
When Uncle Chen heard this, his old face flushed with embarrassment, "This old slave is already at this age, so I don't need to bother the princess."
Seeing that he was so ashamed, Luo Zining put down his hands and stopped stopping him, "You don't want me to take care of your business, why do you take care of our husband and wife's business? Or you can move your bedding to our roomCome, live between me and the prince, what do you think?"
"This old slave doesn't dare." Uncle Chen felt embarrassed by his embarrassment, and walked out in a hurry with his head down.
"Wait." Luo Zining called to him, "I have something to explain clearly. I humiliated the prince verbally on the road before. It was for the emperor to see. Naturally, I have my own difficulties. When I got hereDid you ever see me and say those things again?"
Uncle Chen was stunned for a moment when he heard this. After arriving in the fief, the concubine really did not say those harsh words again. People have become much more easy-going. Even when talking to those maids and servants, the tone is gentle, as if she has changed completely..
Moreover, the princess not only stopped speaking harsh words, but also helped them everywhere, taking out such good materials to seal the windows for all of them, finding someone to make a stove, and making wine for them with her own ancestral recipe, if notHaving seen the worst side of the princess, he will never have such a big prejudice against the princess.
Did he really misunderstand the princess?
Uncle Chen wavered back and forth between misunderstanding the concubine and whether the concubine was playing some tricks again.
Luo Zining walked behind Huo Lingzhi, put his hands on Huo Lingzhi's shoulders, and said to Uncle Chen in an intimate manner: "I don't care if you believe it or not, you are not allowed to mention the , you are not allowed to speak ill of me in my husband's ear again, do you understand?"
Uncle Chen was oppressed by his powerful aura, he nodded his head before he could react, and ran away with oil on his feet.
After the people left, Luo Zining hurried over and closed the door, "The cold is coming in, don't freeze my peppers."
After he closed the door, he ran to look at the row of small pepper seedlings on the table.
Some of the seeds he soaked before have germinated, and he put all the germinated seeds into paper cups to grow. Maybe the climate is not right, and the growth is relatively delicate and slow.
But being able to grow is the biggest encouragement to him. He lay on the table and looked at the row of green seedlings with a smirk, and wondered if he could go get some more soybeans and mung beans and get some bean sprouts to eat. He came hereAfter that, the only vegetables he can eat besides meat are radishes and cabbage. He can still go to the supermarket to eat a cucumber and eat a fruit. Others will not have such a good life. He is afraid that these servants will suffer from malnutrition.
He was thinking about whether he should sneak back to the supermarket at night to see if the gas stove in the supermarket can be used, so that he can cook some hot pot for himself, when Huo Lingzhi behind him asked him: "Did you hear our conversation just now?"How many?"
"I heard him tell you to take a concubine and have a child." Luo Zining said that even if you take a concubine, you will not be able to let others have a child if you are not healthy. It is better to wait a few years to meet the god in the for it after your body is healed.
At that time, he will be able to stand on his own, and once he divorces Huo Lingzhi, he can marry whoever Huo Lingzhi loves, and he doesn't have to be caught in the middle.
"You care?" Huo Lingzhi asked him.
"Of course I care. Who in this world would like their husband to marry someone else? You don't want to say that I'm not generous, do you? Even if you say that, my answer is no, I can only accept monogamy.I can't tolerate one person." Luo Zining still wants to engage in economic development in the past few years, he needs the status of the princess, and it is also beneficial to Huo Lingzhi to let him be the princess.
Leaving aside, let's just say that in the original text, Huo Lingzhi has been starving and freezing for the past few years, and he let Huo Lingzhi live in such a warm house, drink such good wine, and live in the house he repaired next year. This is what he gave Huo 's biggest advantage is that the two of them get what they need, so they must give him benefits, let him work for Huo Lingzhi for nothing.
Huo Lingzhi heard his answer, and then thought of the way Luo Zining pushed the door angrily just now, if he didn't really like someone, how could he be jealous?
When he was the prince, so many high-ranking ladies wanted to marry him, but once he fell down, those who flattered him stayed away. He never resented those people, and he didn't want to marry him is human nature.
Luo Zining's father and uncle were all important officials in the court, and they also grew up in rich clothes and jade food. won't mention those on the road. After arriving here, didn't complain about living such a hard life with him, and was happy every , was busy thinking about this family.
Accompanying him to endure hardships, caring for him and taking care of him, being jealous of him and others, all kinds of evidence were placed in front of Huo Lingzhi, so Huo Lingzhi had to believe that Luo Zining liked him.
"I don't know how to take concubines." Huo Lingzhi is a person who attaches great importance to love and righteousness. In the past, he had always been kind to the soldiers under his command who fought with him through life and death, and never stingy with rewarding them. Although he had no feelings for Luo Zining,But since you are married, you can't live up to it.
Luo Zining didn't know his mental activities, so he said he knew and went out to Zhao Xiaoyu to ask for soybeans and mung beans to prepare some bean sprouts at night.
Zhao Xiaoyu was a little worried: "It's so cold, I don't know if I can make it."
"Try." Luo Zining took the beans she gave, and suddenly thought of something: "Why do you never use tofu for cooking?"
Zhao Xiaoyu looked at him in confusion, not understanding.
"Tofu, don't you like it?" Luo Zining asked him.
"What is tofu?" Zhao Xiaoyu asked him.
"You haven't eaten it?" Luo Zining was also stunned. There is no tofu in this world?He has another profitable business.
But tofu is different from wine. The weather here is cold, so it has to be frozen tofu when it is shipped out to sell. But when it is sold in the city, the people in the city are so poor, so the price has to be kept very low.
But don't sell it for the time being, make it to improve food for your own family, and wait until it becomes rich.
He thought that before crossing, he especially liked to eat tofu in hot pot. After coming here, because there were too few vegetables, he hadn't eaten it for a long time, so why not eat it during the Chinese New Year.
Chinese cabbage is eaten here in winter. He used to watch short videos. Some people put sauerkraut in hot pot. He has never tried this before. Every time he watches it, he gets hungry. Now there are no other vegetables, so sauerkraut is fine.
"Do people here eat sauerkraut? Is there sauerkraut here?" Luo Zining was afraid that there would be no tofu here, and perhaps there would be no sauerkraut either, so he had to find a way to make sauerkraut.
Zhao Xiaoyu nodded: "Yes, it's too late for us to pickle sauerkraut, but we can buy some outside, do you want to eat?"
"Okay, you go and buy some and make sauerkraut stewed vermicelli." Luo Zining had eaten this dish in the store before, and it was delicious.
Zhao Xiaoyu blinked and blinked, "What are vermicelli?"
Luo Zining: "..." I still have a lot to do.
Zhao Xiaoyu: "But you can stew pork with sauerkraut. The wild boar in the mountains here is delicious."
"Okay, you can make arrangements, I believe in your cooking skills." Seeing Zhao Xiaoyu happily preparing to go grocery shopping, Luo Zining had another idea, "Wait a minute, your family used to open a restaurantright?"
Zhao Xiaoyu nodded: "Well, but it's not a serious restaurant, just a small shop with four or five tables." Zhao Xiaoyu said embarrassedly.
"Do you want to open another restaurant in the future?" Luo Zining asked her.
Zhao Xiaoyu shook his head: "I don't want to, I will be a servant of the palace from now on, and I won't have other thoughts to betray the master."
"This is no betrayal. I plan to open a restaurant in the future, and I want you to manage it for me. Can you manage it well?" Luo Zining asked her.
Zhao Xiaoyu felt relieved when she heard that she was going to help Luo Zining. She thought that Luo Zining suspected that she had two intentions, "Of course! The master's business is my business, and I can definitely handle itIt's beautiful."
"That's fine, you go, I'll look for you later when the time comes." Luo Zining turned and went back to study his bean sprouts.
Before preparing to grow peppers, he asked Chen Da to help him move a water tank and put it in the house. It is not only convenient for watering the peppers, but he can also boil hot water for drinking at any time.
He went back with the beans and scooped water out of the water tank to soak the beans.
...
When Boss Cheng returned home, he didn't even tell his own mother, but only said that his father secretly gave him the secret recipe.
The next day he called all his uncles and lied that his father had left a recipe for wine making before his death, but he lost two pages. This time he went out to do business and accidentally found these two pages. He planned to open a winery next year.
The Cheng family is a big family. Boss Cheng's father was the helm of the family from the previous generation. The uncle didn't care about the family business and only divided the money. Later, after his father died, the uncle thought about robbing the family property, but they were not capable enough, and the uncle's children were tooIt's a wine bag and rice bag, and Boss Cheng is the master in the end.
This time, he just told them that if outsiders ask in the future, don't ask questions again and again. If you miss the trap, people will guess that the boss behind his family is the princess.
After he finished speaking, he took out a jar of wine and poured it for them, letting them taste it first.
When the uncles tasted it, their eyes lit up immediately, and they thought in their hearts that with the construction of a winery, all of them would be able to live a more prosperous life.
An uncle asked Boss Cheng: "What recipe, show it to us. Since it was passed down by our ancestors, then we also have a share."
Boss Cheng gave him a sideways look: "Uncle Wu, don't ask any more, I'll show you the front foot, and you'll sell the back foot."
The other uncles thought the same way. No one can show this recipe. A few years ago, when Boss Cheng's father died, the house was in such a mess. Not only did they lose money, but they almost broke up the houseup.
In the past few years, they have also understood that only Boss Cheng's housekeeper can let them live a peaceful and rich life.
The uncle made a decision: "Let's agree on this prescription. No one is allowed to ask, and no one is allowed to inquire in private. If anyone asks, he will be removed from the family tree."
When the others heard that it was so serious, they didn't intend to ask about that Fangzi anymore, and they all gave Boss Cheng advice on the location of the winery.
Boss Cheng said that they don't need to intervene in business matters, and everyone just waits for the money to be shared in the future.
...
Boss Cheng still has three bottles of wine left in his hand, he doesn't want to wait for a moment, he wants to sell them now to see how the response is, but the caravan just came back and needs to be repaired, and it's not worthwhile to go out just to sell these three jars of wine, he plans to order some other goods and make another trip before the Chinese New Year.
During this time, Luo Zining produced five more jars of wine and handed them to Boss Cheng, who took the eight jars of wine out of the city.
The weather was cold and the roads were difficult to walk. They stopped and stopped for quite a while before arriving at the nearest city.
The weather and environment of that city is similar to theirs, but it is much richer than them, thanks to the fact that their prefect is a good official, unlike Boss Cheng and their prefect, who can't wait to pry people's bonesStart sucking bone marrow, some ambitious people are not willing to stay there, most of them ran to Lincheng to find work.
Boss Cheng first went to sell the game and some animal skins he brought, and then went to a restaurant he was familiar with.
He and the owner of that restaurant are friends. He came out to do business in the first year and was bullied by the locals. It was the owner of this restaurant who helped him. After that, he would come here every year to have a drink with the game and food are sold to restaurant owners.
The owner of the restaurant is surnamed Li. He is a fat little old man. When he saw Boss Cheng coming over and smiling, his flesh you don't make enough money, let's take a rest after Chinese New Year. Come in, come in, I just had a big elbow stewed by someone, and you just come over to have a drink with me."
Boss Cheng came in with a jar of wine, "I have something good, I can't wait to bring it here to show you, come and taste the wine I brought from home."
"It's not that I look down on you. What good wine can you have at your house? Let's drink mine." Boss Li asked the waiter to get the wine.
"Whether my wine is good or not, you'll know when you look at it." Boss Cheng opened the wine, and a scent of strong wine spread over the surface. Boss Li, who hadn't looked down on the wine he brought just now, stared straight at this moment.
Boss Cheng laughed out loud when he saw his expression, "It was your expression when I first saw this wine."
Boss Li was so shocked that he pushed the wine bowl over, "Quick, pour me some."
Boss Cheng generously poured him a large bowl of wine. The waiter behind Boss Li was startled by the clear wine. He couldn't help swallowing, thinking that they would lick the wine after wine on the bowl is enough.
Xiao Er's bluffing voice and the smell of wine attracted the diners around. The diners who came to this restaurant were all wealthy people in the city, and they thought they had seen the world. They wanted to see what it wine can make the waiter in the shop scream like this, how about having their local wine?
At first everyone turned to look at Boss Li's table, only two or three stood up and went over to have a look, and they were all amazed at this look: "This, this is really wine? How can it be so clear? IfIf you don't tell me, I thought it was water."
"This is water. Are you selling water from jars of wine?" a diner said to Boss Li, "There are a lot of scammers these days, you have to keep your eyes open."
"If you're a liar, you'll know if you taste it. Don't be fooled if you don't see the world." Boss Cheng remembered that Luo Zining had told him before coming here that if no one dared to buy this wine at the beginning, he would buy people to taste, there are two jars of wine here that Luo Zining gave him for people to try.
He asked the shop waiter to bring ten small wine cups, filled them up, and let all the diners present have a taste.
Several diners tilted their heads to look at the wine on the table, but no one stood up to drink.
"My brother is honest, it's impossible to sell fakes, I'll try it for you." Boss Li couldn't wait to pick up the wine bowl and took a big sip, but as soon as he tasted it, he coughed so hot.
The diners who watched the excitement next to him had such an expression, "How about it, it really is a fake bar."
Boss Li blushed from coughing, he would be speechless for a while and waved his hands vigorously.
The diner who was pissed off by Boss Cheng just now held his breath, and came back when he saw this: "Boss Li is coughing like this, what kind of mess is this wine made of? If you don't know how to make wine, don't make it. It's not like poisoning people to death."piece of cake."
When Boss Cheng heard this, his expression darkened immediately, "This is the best wine, don't spread rumors."
After he finished speaking, he took a big sip, showing an expression of enjoyment, "If it's really poisonous, would I dare to drink it myself?"
Boss Li finally recovered, "Good wine!"
After he finished speaking, he took another big sip, "Have a good drink! Brother Cheng, I want this wine for how much it costs."
After Boss Li finished speaking, he felt a little regretful. He really drank too much. For such a good wine, the price might not be what he wanted.
"It's not expensive." Boss Cheng stuffed his hand into Boss Li's sleeve and gestured for him a price.
Boss Li asked him tremblingly, "Really?"
"Really." Boss Cheng said with certainty.
"Come on, brother Cheng, let's talk inside." Boss Li cupped his hands to everyone, "Brother Cheng invited everyone to drink this wine today. If everyone drinks well, you can come to me for a drink in the future. I'll drink it me."
As he spoke, he dragged Boss Cheng into the room to discuss business. The diners who were talking about fake wine just now saw that such a shrewd person as Boss Li was eager to buy the wine after taking a sip, which made them greedy too.
One person got up and took a cup and smelled it, "This little smell is really attractive."
As he spoke, he drank it into his mouth in one gulp. Everyone saw his distorted facial features and thought it was unpalatable. He sighed contentedly after drinking.
"Good wine! Whoever says it's fake wine, I'll cut off his head and use it as a chair." After he finished speaking exaggeratedly, the person who had been yelling that it was fake wine just now couldn't sit still, walked over and took it drinking one cup, his eyes lit up, and he wanted to drink a second cup, but the cup next to him had already been shared by other diners.
He smacked the taste in his mouth, "Xiao Er, ask your boss later, how much is a jar, I'll buy a jar."
Seeing this, the others looked at the wine brought by Boss Cheng on the ground, and counted that there were seven jars left besides the opened -off people tentatively ask whether they should be sold loose or not.
The waiter in the shop was afraid that these people would snatch the wine, so he quickly moved the wine in with the shop guys and put it away.
As soon as Boss Li entered the room, he couldn't wait to ask him if it was thirty taels a bottle. After getting a definite answer, he almost cried, "My brother is too honest. Such a good wine only costs thirty taels. How much is this wine worth?"Is there any? Sell them all to me in the future, and don't sell them to others."
Boss Cheng rubbed his nose: "It's not that my brother doesn't want to sell only your family, it's because this wine recipe is my family's ancestral recipe. I plan to open a winery next year and produce a lot. I'm afraid you won't be able to eat so much."
Boss Li originally thought that the wine was precious and the quantity would not be large, but when he heard that he was going to open a winery, he really couldn't eat so much.
Boss Cheng said that it will take some time for the winery to open, and some wine will be made before that. These are small quantities and will be sent to Boss Li after the new year.
Boss Li paid for the jars of wine, entertained him and his caravan people with good food and drink, completely treated Boss Cheng as his own brother.
After returning this time, Boss Cheng immediately went to the palace to report the situation to Luo Zining.
Because this matter is kept secret, he acts like a thief every time, looking around for no one to knock on the back door of the palace.
After meeting Luo Zining, he told Luo Zining all about his experience vividly, as if he had dug a gold mine.
He said that he was excited, so he told Boss Li that he wanted them to sell wine only to Boss Li's family. After he finished speaking, he couldn't help laughing, "My brother Li didn't even think that I would open a winery., knowing that we brew a lot of wine, he didn't mention selling it all to his family."
Luo Zining asked him: "Is Boss Li someone you trust? If he is someone you trust, you can ask him to be a distributor for our winery."
"What is a dealer?" Boss Cheng was a little confused. He was a rough man and couldn't understand the words used by scholars.
Luo Zining: "In the future, the production of wine will increase. If you go to the store and bring so much wine, it is impossible to sell it out in one day. During those days of delay, so much wine will have to be stored in the inn or rented yard, it is worse than you Put all these wines on Boss Li's side, and you can sell them to him for thirty taels a jar. If other restaurants and taverns want wine, they can get it from him at a price of thirty five taels, and he will earn five taels of silver from it. The price difference for a pot."
Boss Cheng slapped his head when he heard this, "Why didn't I think of it, if I had thought of it earlier, I would have told him at the time, he would definitely be happy, his house is big, and there is a big cellar, storing hundreds of jars of wineNo problem, the princess is still smart."
Luo Zining: "If he won't be able to pay for hundreds of jars of wine for a while, you can go to him to settle the payment every quarter, and he will pay you as much as you sell in a quarter. If he is not willing, It's okay to find someone else, but someone else is not as good as him with you, so I'm afraid it's unreliable."
"He's definitely happy, he's going crazy with joy." Boss Cheng himself was going crazy with joy, "Princess, I've already selected a few places for the winery, do you want to go and have a look together?"
"Okay." Luo Zining is now studying tofu at home every day. The bean sprouts grew well last time, which gave him great self-confidence, but the tofu was not as good as he imagined. He failed many times, and he had a headache.I'm about to grow up, so I just took this opportunity to go out and get some fresh air.
