Chapter 95: Liu Biao’s Team (Xie Chaoren Theory Book Friend)
Wine culture was very popular among the upper class of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
The origin of wine, one talks about Du Kang, and the other talks about Yi Di. There are also gods like Shennong and Shen Yuan. But one thing is the same. As a cultural phenomenon that has been closely related to literati from the beginning, it can be said that wine has been around almost since the beginning of time.
They play a very important role in every historical period, and the Eastern Han Dynasty is no exception.
At the earliest time, Fei Qian thought about using wine to make a fortune, but unfortunately he found that distilled wine, that is, high-strength wine, had already begun to be produced during the Eastern Han Dynasty. Of course, this high degree was not the same as that of vodka and the like in later generations.
There is no way to compare.
But this also abruptly cut off Fei Qian’s way of making money!
What about the ancient time-travel sharp tools for making paper and steaming wine?
The cruel reality is that during the Eastern Han Dynasty, paper had already appeared. Although it cannot be compared with later generations, it can still be used. As for the method of bleaching paper, Fei Qian remembered a piece of lime, and then went to papermaking.
As soon as Fang saw it, he came back with tears streaming down his face...
Half of them are smoked, and the other half are already used by others, and are still being improved...
The same goes for making wine. At first, Fei Qian was eager to develop a distillation method. However, when he went to Zuixianlou, the largest restaurant in Luoyang, his heart dropped when he saw it. From fruit wine to grain wine, as well as barbarian milk wine,
There are also things like cypress wine, pepper wine, flower wine...
When Fei Qian saw that there was still highly distilled liquor, he heard from the shopkeeper that this liquor was very strong, so people who were not alcoholics would not drink it. It was not popular among the nobles, and its sales volume was very small...
At that time, Fei Qian's burning desire to make a fortune was completely cool, and he even wanted to die. Not all the guys who had traveled through time before were able to make paper and wine with the green dragon on their left and the white tiger on the right.
A big killer, accumulated a lot of original capital and no one will care about it, how come I don’t eat meat, I don’t even have soup...
Therefore, Fei Qian no longer thought about these two items.
After all, the gentry were the most important consumer group in this period. Common people basically did not use paper and rarely drank alcohol. Paper may be slowly studied and evolved when conditions permit in the future, but the gentry currently do not like this high-quality alcohol at all.
If you don’t accept it, then just sell it to someone?
Hu people? Hu people are good at wine, but they are not fools. Those who are so poor can only exchange cattle and sheep, but the value of cattle and sheep in the eyes of the Hu people is almost equal to the value of the land in the eyes of the Han people.
, it’s okay to be extravagant occasionally, but if you have to exchange hundreds of cattle and sheep - that person with a trick on his head will probably be annexed by others before he exchanges it...
The gentry of the Eastern Han Dynasty preferred to drink low-alcohol grain wine, and there were also classifications: the upper-level people, glutinous rice wine; the middle-level people, millet wine; and the lower-level people, corn wine.
Of course, there are also more high-end fruit wines. For example, Cao Cao likes to drink some wine...
For example, today, when Liu Biao entertained Fei Qian, he brought out gold paste wine. Meicheng of the Western Han Dynasty mentioned in "Liu Fu": "The nobles presented gold paste wine." This refers to this kind of wine.
Drinking is naturally lively, and the more lively it is, the happier it will be. In addition, Liu Biao did listen to Fei Qian's words today. He feels that the direction of Jingxiang's territory is clearer and has more hope of success, so he is very interested. Not only did he invite
Fei Qian also sent people to call other people, saying that he was treating Fei Qian as a blessing and congratulating Fei Qian on taking office.
Naturally, the first one to arrive was Pang Ji and Pang Ziling. Apparently he learned about Fei Qian's appointment as his wife from his servants. As soon as they met, he congratulated Liu Biao and Fei Qian, making the atmosphere extremely harmonious...
Then came a military general named Wang Wei and Wang Weilian. He had a square face and a neat and beautiful mustache. After learning that Fei Qian was the new commander, he was a little surprised.
However, he congratulated Liu Biao and Fei Qian in a formal manner and then sat aside.
Followed closely by Fu Xun and Fu Gongti.
When Fu Xun and Fu Gongti first came in, Fei Qian thought at a glance that another general had arrived. He was tall, with a serious face, and walked vigorously. However, upon closer inspection, he turned out to be a scribe dressed as a scholar.
After listening to Liu Biao's introduction, it was completely confirmed that Fu Xun, who was serving as the secretary, must be counted among the civil servants.
After all, Book Cao mainly deals with money, food, and books, and generals generally can't do it.
When Fu Xun and Fu Gongti heard about Fei Qian's new appointment, they couldn't tell whether they were happy or angry on their serious faces. They just saw the courtesy and sat down at the table.
Fei Qian, the next two people who came to the scene, one Wu and one Wen, was more impressive, not because they had met them before, but at least they were more famous in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms than the others just now.
The man in charge is Wen Pin and Wen Zhongye. He is about eight feet tall, has a big chest and a round waist, and strong arms. You can tell he is a brave man at a glance. He is currently serving as a general.
The article is about Yi Ji, Yi Boji. Fei Qian was very impressed when he saw Yi Ji at first sight. He originally thought that Liu Biao was personable enough. Unexpectedly, after seeing Yi Ji, he realized why Yi Ji was mentioned in many Three Kingdoms games in later generations.
Whether he is given the title of a celebrity or has skills, there is some truth to it. Look at his gestures and gestures, the middle-aged mature man is full of charm. In future generations, if he joins the film industry, he will be able to make all female creatures look at him.
Red heart...
This Yiji is already of such a high level, so what if Mizuro, who is said to be able to instantly kill anyone from eight to eighty years old, must be so magnificent...
The last to arrive were Captain Cai He and Zhizhong Deng Xi.
Cai Hemo and Fei Qian still have some impressions. As for Deng Xi, I really can't remember what this character did...
Seeing that people were almost here, Liu Biao officially announced the start of the banquet and formally introduced Fei Qian, who had been promoted today, to everyone.
Fei Qian quickly greeted Liu Biao and other men one by one.
While saluting, Fei Qian was thinking in his mind:
Pang Ji, Pang Ziling, according to previous knowledge, although his surname is Pang, he does not seem to have a very close relationship with Pang Degong, but he should be considered above the Kuai family, and he should be the pioneer for the Kuai family...
Wang Wei, I have no impression. The local surname Wang in Jingxiang does not seem to be very popular. He should be a foreign general...
Book Cao Fu Xun, judging from this position, should be considered relatively close to Liu Biao. Qian Liang, which company CEO first grasped Qian Liang?
Wenpin, Wen Zhongye, this is a native writer in Jingxiang, and should be a figure from the Jingbei area...
Yiji is actually from Shanyang. Isn't this the same place as Liu Biao? So this person can be regarded as one of Liu Biao's confidants? It should be about the same...
Needless to say, Cai He belongs to the Cai family, but it seems that Cai Mao hasn't come out yet. He may be of the same nature as Pang Ji and came to explore the way for the Cai family first...
Deng Xi, well, I have no impression at all. The official position of Zhizhong is mainly dealing with some documents, which is not a good basis for judging the tendency. I don’t know which side it should be...
So at present, it seems that the closest confidants to Liu Biao are Fu Xun and Yi Ji; the representatives of the Jingxiang faction, Pang Ji and Cai He of the Kuai family, and Wenpin of the Wen family; and Wang Wei and Deng Xi probably count.
They are civil and military officers and generals from outside...
Fei Qian couldn't help but sigh in his heart, everyone has factions, and Liu Biao is not bad either. Just these few people can be divided into so many factions. It seems that I am not easy to get along with...
