The first thousand three hundred and forty-six chapters make better wine
Chapter 1346: Brew better wine
In Chang'an, countless people stood beside the Weishui River, all of them looking forward to it.
Pier Li Er, Empress Changsun, Li Feng's four wives, Fang Xuanling and other cultural relic officials have all been waiting for a long time.
Today is the day when Li Feng arrived in Chang'an by iron ship.
The common people had heard that a large ship made of iron was coming to Chang'an. The man who invented the iron ship was Li Feng, the most famous Marquis of Lantian today.
In addition, the sun is shining brightly today and the breeze is blowing, which makes it very comfortable. It is the best day for outing.
…
On the steamer, Li Feng stood on the bow, looking at the scenery along the river, feeling the breeze on the river blowing through his body, making every cell in his body feel refreshed.
Li Derjian came to Li Feng's side with the two bottles of wine and handed a bottle of wine to Li Feng: "Here, this is the fruit wine I just bought in Yangzhou. It tastes good. Can you try it?"
Li Feng took the fruit wine, frowned slightly, then took a sip, then smiled and said: "You still have to spend money to buy this wine? If you want to drink it, go to Lantian Marquis Mansion and bring a dozen jars back and drink it slowly."
"puff."
Li Derjian spat out the wine in his mouth and said in surprise: "What do you mean? Is this wine also brewed in your winery?"
Li Feng nodded and said with a smile: "That's right, but it's not brewed in a winery in Chang'an, but in a winery in Hainan. There are a lot of fruits there, so you don't have to worry about not having any fruit to make wine."
"Damn it, you guys are planning to brew all the brews for a long time, and are you going to let other breweries survive?" Li Derjian said.
"Who should not live?" Orihime once again broke into the conversation between Li Feng and Li Derjian, and only heard the last few words, and they were very sensitive words.
If you don't listen to the complete words, only two people will live, which can derive many different meanings. Extreme people will think that Li Feng wants to kill people and prevent all the kings who come to participate in the Light Festival from living.
When Li Derjian saw Orihime, he couldn't help but have a headache and said, "Why did you come out?"
"General Li, this is wrong. Marquis Lantian has not restricted my freedom, so why can't I come?" Orihime said.
Then he looked at Li Feng and said, "Don't change the subject. Who do you want to stop living?"
"You really have enough thoughts about who doesn't want to live anymore." Li Derjian said, "What we just talked about was wine.
Didn't you and I buy a lot of fruit wine in Yangzhou and plan to enjoy it slowly in Chang'an?"
"Yes, I discovered this fruit wine first. I even suggested giving the fruit wine to your parents and elders. Why, is there something wrong with this wine?" Orihime asked.
Li Derjian shook his head and said: "There is nothing wrong with the wine. It tastes very good, mellow, not spicy, and has a strong fruity flavor with a hint of sweetness. It is very suitable for women to drink.
But you don’t know that this wine was brewed by Li Feng, and Li Feng has no intention of giving any wine makers a way out."
Orihime was immediately shocked. She looked at Li Feng and said, "Lantian Hou, you really don't plan to give other breweries a way to survive. I want to know what kind of wine you don't plan to brew in the future?"
Li Feng thought for a while and said: "I can make everything. I want to make Datang a wine-making kingdom. The best wine in the world comes from Datang."
As soon as we talk about it, everyone will say that Datang’s wine is the best wine in the world.”
Orihime thought for a while and said, "Aren't you afraid that your brewing technology will be stolen and you improve it? Then your dream of becoming the number one wine country will be shattered."
Li Feng said: "Haha... what Princess Orihime said makes sense, but I'm not afraid at all, because everyone's taste is different, just like fruit wine. Compared with my other wines, this fruit wine is not very strong and has a strong flavor."
Sweet, many people like it.
But as for other wines, some people also like them, but if a hundred people choose these two wines, no one knows who comes first.
I just want to give you an understanding, that is, the Tang Dynasty is the largest wine-making country in the world. Our Li's Winery is the best wine-making workshop in the world.
And the wine brewed in the winery today is not the best wine."
"Isn't this the best wine? Then what is the best wine?" Li Derjian asked, "Does your brewery have the best wine now?"
Orihime smiled and said: "General Li, the Marquis just said that the wine brewed in his winery is not the best wine yet, which means that he has not brewed it yet.
If you want to drink it, just ask Lan Tianhou to brew it quickly."
Li Derjian immediately looked at Li Feng and said, "Li Feng, you actually have a better wine recipe, why don't you brew it?"
Li Feng shook his head and said: "It is not that easy to make good wine. It is divided into six steps. The first step is very difficult."
"How difficult it is, tell me." Li Derjian said nonchalantly.
In his mind, he believes that any difficult problem can be solved with money. If money cannot solve it, then add more power. There is nothing in the world that money and power cannot solve.
Li Feng shook his head and said: "The first step is to choose grain. Grain is the meat of wine. Generally, sorghum, corn, wheat, rice, glutinous rice, barley, buckwheat, highland barley and other grains and beans are used as raw materials.
Nowadays, the fine wines brewed can be made from grains. However, this is not the case. There are requirements for grains. The grains need to be uniform and full, fresh, free of insects, no mildew, suitable drying, no sediment, no foreign odor, and no
Other sundries.
The second step is easy to do, but very difficult to do. That is the water source. Water is the blood of wine. As the saying goes, good water makes good wine. You just need to find a sweet water source. I have already searched for it all over the country.
.
The third step is to choose music, music is the bone of wine..."
Li Feng talked endlessly about the six steps of wine making. The first three steps were explained in detail, while the last three steps were just briefly mentioned without any detailed introduction.
But just the first three steps have already benefited Li Dejian and Orihime a lot. At the same time, they know the tedious process of making wine.
Li Derjian said: "You have said so much, do you want to tell me that there is no way I can drink the highest wine you say in my lifetime?"
Li Feng shook his head and said: "Of course not. The new rice studied by Li Ke has met the requirements of the first step. Within a few years, I will be able to brew a better wine, which will become the national wine of the Tang Dynasty.
For hundreds of years, no one has been able to master this fine wine."
"Really? Then I'll wait and see." Li Derjian said with a smile.
Orihime also said: "I also want to taste what kind of wine the Tang Dynasty national wine in the mouth of the Marquis tastes like."
"I will definitely not let you down." Li Feng said confidently.
