Chapter 19 Good Wine
When they saw such a big jar being brought up, the people present looked a little disdainful, because when nobles filled wine, most of them used small porcelain bottles, and some people used glazed bottles, and very few used them. I will use a jar like this.
The most important thing is that everyone understands that there are relatively few good wines produced. If you make such a big jar at once, how good can your wine be?
cut…
Li Tai had already curled his lips.
Changsun Chong also had a bit of distrust on his face.
There was a hint of worry on Changsun Pingting's face. She had developed a good impression of Li Xiang in a short while.
Changsun Wuji's reaction was the most surprising, because Changsun Wuji had already stood up.
Among the people present, if you want to talk about drinking, Changsun Wuji ranks first in the entire Chang'an City.
Although Li Xiang's liquor is only a preliminary process, it is many times more advanced than the liquor of this era. Although it has not been opened yet, a hint of wine fragrance has begun to permeate the air. Changsun Wuji is also intoxicated with this kind of liquor. Among the fragrance.
"Aunt, my nephew heard that the first jar of new wine needs to be opened by the beautiful man who has been reduced to bones and flesh. There are three of us old men here, so we have to ask aunt to do it for us."
Li Xiang could see that among the three Changsun family members present, the one with the best strategy was this cousin who looked like a fairy. Therefore, even if Li Xiang wanted to cooperate with the Changsun family, he wanted to avoid Changsun Chong, mainly because of Because this guy had been with Li Tai for too long, it was not easy for him to open a door to him, so when speaking, Li Xiang directly omitted the name of his cousin's aunt.
What's more, no matter what kind of woman she is, she likes others to show off herself. The eldest grandson Pingting is only in her twenties, at the age of a flower. She was transformed into bones and flesh by Li Xiang. How can she not be happy? ?
"Even so, that aunt came to Kaifeng, but I have to say it first. If your wine sells well, I will also ask for a share of your dividends like those female boss ladies."
After Changsun Pingting finished speaking, she suddenly felt that she had said the wrong thing. Doesn't this mean that she wants to be the boss lady? This is a big difference in seniority.
Fortunately, Changsun Wuji had been attracted by the aroma of the wine and didn't care what his daughter said. However, Li Tai's face changed drastically. He knew what kind of temper this cousin was. He had helped his uncle with many ideas over the years. If If you fall to the little bastard's side, it won't do you any good.
Li Tai also wanted to show off his literary talents and praise him in front of Changsun Pingting, but the problem was that even if he tried hard, he could not think of a poem that could compare to the poem that sinks into bones and flowers into flesh, so he could only sit in his seat angrily. Drink boring wine.
It seems that ever since this boy rose to prominence, he has never had a good day.
But Li Tai is not in a hurry. Making wine is not an easy task. He knows how the royal wine is made. It requires years of fermentation. You have only been working here for a few days. I have never heard that you can make wine before. , can it create a ghost?
"My aunt can open it, but I'm afraid she won't want it when the time comes."
Li Xiang said happily, the eldest grandson Pingting was unable to get off the tiger, so she could only stretch out her slender hand, glance at her father, and then gently tear open the seal.
The aroma of fine wine spreads all over the street, not to mention that this is just a house, the fragrance has already filled the entire house in an instant.
Changsun Wuji closed his eyes very intoxicated. After drinking for so many years, this should be the most fragrant wine aroma.
"I'll have a bowl first."
Due to his status, Changsun Wuji naturally couldn't say that, but Changsun Chong didn't worry so much.
Before Li Xiang could react, Changsun Chong had already given himself a bowl. Li Xiang just wanted to say that the wine was strong, but Changsun Chong took a big gulp and drank it down.
"Enjoyable..."
The wine of this era has a maximum of ten degrees of alcohol content, and contains many impurities. Even the so-called palace jade liquor has no taste. Li Xiang’s wine is only a primary fermentation, and at best it can be regarded as an off-brand wine of the 21st century. The kind that costs five or six yuan a bottle.
But for people of this era, this is the nectar from the sky. After Changsun took a sip, he immediately felt the pleasure of the liquor running through his throat, and his whole body was warm. Soldiers like this feeling, and immediately his whole body People are like burning.
"Uncle, please..."
Changsun Chong had already started drinking his second bowl. He didn't care about his father's murderous look. Li Xiang observed very carefully and quickly brought a bowl to Changsun Wuji from the side.
"Then I'll try it..."
Changsun Wuji acted unhurriedly, but when Li Xiang handed over the liquor, he put it into his mouth without a second's delay. Of course, it was not Changsun Chong's kind of big gulp, but just a gentle drink. I sipped a little and it was really an aftertaste.
"Good wine."
When Changsun Wuji said this, Li Tai was stunned beside him. You must know that Changsun Chong has no research on liquor, but Changsun Wuji is different. If we talk about the research on liquor, Changsun Wuji can do it in Chang'an. The city is ranked in the top three. People like this say it is a good wine. How can it be bad?
"Brother, give me a bowl."
Li Taigang wanted to get up and drink some, but he remembered that he was Li Xiang's uncle...
In front of these people, Li Xiang was embarrassed and gave this guy a bowl. Although Li Tai didn't drink much, when the liquor entered his mouth, his whole body felt hot. , and still a little bit elated.
As for Changsun Pingting, who doesn't drink well, her face turned red after taking a small sip, and she looked more and more beautiful.
"What do my cousin think?"
When Li Tai heard Li Xiang's question, he felt that this boy was really bored. Changsun Wuji had been saying this for a long time. Could it be that these two people would say that wine is not good? What's more, the wine is really good.
But when he saw Li Xiang's eyes, Li Tai immediately understood what was going on. This boy was still thinking about his bird jade pendant.
The first time I made a bet, I had to rely on Empress Changsun. If she wanted to rely on her this time, it would be a bit unjustifiable.
"This is the best wine in Chang'an City."
Changsun Chong had a large bowl of at least four taels. His head was already a little dizzy now, but he still wanted to drink it.
"What my brother said is true."
Changsun Pingting also gave her evaluation, and it was just as Li Tai thought. After Changsun Pingting finished speaking, Li Xiang stood next to Li Tai and extended his hand.
