Volume 1 Mishui coming from the East Chapter 6 Purification

The solution of inviting the county magistrate to hunt and show off his muscles at the same time was initially approved by the audience.

The specific details of the plan will be further refined during the day.

The serious discussion came to an end, but the atmosphere in the pavilion was still warm.

The old man has a good drinking capacity, and he keeps drinking tons and tons of alcohol.

Several young people, all of whom were somewhat drunk, began to talk too much, and began to talk nonsense all over the world.

The noisy sound made Ou Xing feel dizzy. He ate a plum and his thoughts began to wander.

Green ants have newly baked wine, and there is a small red clay stove. It is snowing in the evening, so I can drink a cup without it.

On a snowy night three years ago, the talented Ou Gongzi "composed" this little poem.

Serve it in a green bottle and drink it in a carved wine glass. The ants are boiling in a cauldron, and the aroma is strong and fragrant. The green plum wine is boiled and has a unique taste. Ou Xing likes it very much.

Before he traveled through time, he had a hobby, which was to make a glass of mulled wine in his spare time.

Slice the lemon, cut the apple and orange into cubes, insert the cloves into the skin side of the orange, and set aside.

Then, set up a small pot, pour in red wine, put the fruits and spices into the pot, and simmer over low heat. When the edge of the wine begins to bubble, add a little rock sugar, continue to simmer over low heat, and cook for another 10 minutes.

After cooking, take out the fruit and put it into a glass, put a stick of cinnamon on it, then pour in the steaming red wine, and you're done with a glass of mulled wine.

Next, choose a suitable angle, take photos, add filters, and add a small piece of text, and the atmosphere of the little bourgeoisie moaning without any cause is instantly filled.

At this time, hold the wine glass with both hands and take a sip. The aroma of wine, fruit and spices are perfectly intertwined in your mouth. The heat starts from the palms and stomach and quickly spreads to the whole body, creating a warm feeling.

After traveling to the late Eastern Han Dynasty, Ou Xing fell in love with green plum wine.

Different time and space, similar wine temperature, drinking it, it feels like a familiar yet strange hometown.

He is no longer a college student who does not know the feeling of sorrow under the red flag. Ou Xing in the late Han Dynasty had different sorrows every day.

Questions about wine, especially distilled wine, had troubled him more than once.

Using distillation technology to make high-strength liquor and make a lot of money is a classic plot in time-travel novels that has been tried and tested many times.

As a lover of time travel novels, Ou Xing will naturally not forget this incident.

What he didn't expect was that there were many things that he didn't expect during the process of making distilled wine.

First of all, producing distilled liquor in the late Han Dynasty was surprisingly simple.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the distillation technology was quite mature, and bronze stills of different specifications were available in the market - the stills of Oujia Distillery were purchased by Ou Xing in Linxiang County.

The ancestors used their wisdom to slap the time traveler who was above his head.

However, the slap was slapped, but not completely.

In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, there was no distilled liquor.

The bronze stills that appeared in the late Eastern Han Dynasty were used for superstitious purposes - the Dan family. Alchemists used bronze stills to heat cinnabar to generate mercury vapor, which was then cooled to obtain liquid mercury, which was used to prepare various elixirs such as the elixir of life.

The bronze still that Ou Xing purchased from Linxiang County is a typical alchemy still. There is no sealing cover on the steamer, there is no cooler, it lacks an evaporation chamber and a heat exchanger, and it is not a complete still.

After all, the four years of chemical engineering and technology were not learned in vain. Ou Xing's smart IQ quickly occupied the high ground.

Returning to Oujiachong, after a little research, he took the still to Luoxian County, and found someone to customize a metal dome cover that could fit tightly on the mouth of the steamer. The wine still was born.

In the first year of Zhongping, Yuye brand distilled liquor came out, and its fragrance spread throughout Hunan and four rivers.

Then, unexpected trouble came.

Distilled spirits are very popular.

During the development and trial production stage of distilled liquor, Ou Xing was still very worried about market acceptance. After all, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, everyone drank low-alcohol liquor below 5 degrees.

Should we hold a high-end cocktail party to create a hot spot, write soft articles, and invite a large number of amphibians to promote it? The market’s answer is no.

In September of the first year of Zhongping, Yuye brand distilled liquor began to be put on trial sale at Zuixianju Liquor House in Luoxian County. In less than three days, the first batch of 50 jars of liquor was sold out.

Drunkards flocked to it, and Yuye Liquor was a great success!

But Ou Xing couldn't laugh.

Yuye wine is so popular that barbarians, old and young, in District Jiachong love it to death.

Before he even started to do big things, his base was corrupted first. The ambitious Ou Xing was so angry that he broke out in pimples all over his head.

Prohibition of alcohol cannot be tolerated.

The Han court also banned alcohol - Han law stipulates that if there are more than three people drinking in a group without any reason, they will be fined four taels. But does anyone take this law seriously?

The trend of drinking in the Han Dynasty became more and more popular, and Yuye liquor became very popular as soon as it was launched. In the final analysis, there was a huge contradiction between the growing material and cultural needs of the people of the Han Dynasty and the backward social production.

Ou Jiachong is no exception.

People work from sunrise to sunset, and there is no other way of entertainment except making friends and drinking. Wine comforts the tired body and mind.

The huge sense of crisis caused by the corruption of the basic market forced the traversers who were immersed in farming to stop and start seriously thinking about how to strengthen the spiritual and cultural construction of the people.

In September of the first year of Zhongping, Ou Jiachong held a clan meeting of all clan members, at which a clan cupbearer that combined blocking and distancing was announced.

In terms of blocking, we mainly implement and study the legal spirit of the Han Empire, which stipulates that if residents of District Jiachong drink alcohol during the day except for clan gatherings, festivals, and sacrifices, they will be fined 5 taels and 20 canes, and the remaining wine will be confiscated and banned from drinking for one week.

In terms of sparseness, it mainly includes two major sections.

The first is to implement the relevant welfare system. Each person can receive 1 tael of Yuye wine (alcohol content about 22 degrees) or half a catty of turbid wine (alcohol content about 3 degrees) from the clan for free every day.

The second is to strengthen spiritual and cultural construction work.

In all aspects of daily production and life, Ou Xing has racked his brains to set up many competitions and awards, such as health pacesetter, rice transplanting expert, weeding pioneer, etc.

At the same time, material rewards and spiritual recognition are combined. In addition to bamboo medals, the winners will also receive physical prizes such as chickens, smoked fish, dried meat, and an appropriate amount of copper coins.

During the off-season, Ou Xing would practice archery with the young men of his clan, roughly practicing archery once a day, competing once every ten days, and hunting once a month.

Likewise, the winner in archery gets a prize.

Blessings are where misfortune lies, misfortunes are where blessings lie.

It was the emergence of the Jiu Mengzi crisis that forced Ou Xing to pay attention to the spiritual and cultural construction of the Ou clan people. And the spiritual and cultural construction work was ultimately fruitful.

Ou Xing's confidence in showing off his muscles to the county magistrate came partly from the tribesmen's practice and competition of archery skills day after day.

The son of the Ou family is indeed no weaker than others.
