Chapter 261 Juxian Brewing(1/2)

The borderland is in such an intense and intense form.

The oldest festival in China - New Year's Eve is also coming as scheduled.

The Cao and Liu armies stationed at the border are now very sensible and no war has broken out.

Both parties enjoyed rare tranquility and peace.

And in this special solar term, in order to boost the morale of the soldiers.

Governor Huo Jun also specially sent several carts of supplements to the Qiang Road to reward the entire army.

With this small move, all the soldiers under his command couldn't help but shout loudly.

Seeing these scenes, Zhao Tong couldn't help but think to himself: "I learned it!"

All the soldiers also organized together that night and sat together around the campfire to have a dinner.

They were stationed on the border, and the situation was tense and the war was complicated.

Naturally, I cannot return home to reunite with my relatives.

Then in this military world, there is only the robe beside you to rely on to express your love and affection.

And Zhao Tong came from later generations, and he also knew that during the future dynasty, there would be many activities in the army during New Years and holidays.

These activities can gradually relax the tense heartstrings of soldiers during daily drills.

Therefore.

This special New Year's Eve.

Zhao Tong, together with his generals and soldiers from various departments, gathered for dinner.

Then we chatted with each other and talked freely.

Subsequently, under the auspices of Zhao Tong, a series of cheerful and humorous activities were carried out.

After a night of staying up late.

That night, almost all the soldiers in each department felt relaxed.

With the New Year's Eve.

Over the next ten days or so, the atmosphere became increasingly intense.

Ancient people would have many things going on before or after the New Year.

For example, on the day before the New Year's Eve in the twelfth lunar month, drums must be beaten to drive away plagues, which is called the New Year's Eve, and one act is to expel the disease. The expulsion ceremony is also called "Da Nuo".

Even within the palace confinement, Nuo ceremonies still need to be held to ward off the epidemic.

After the new year, you still need to go up the mountain to worship your ancestors.

Therefore, this is also the busiest day of the year, but it is also a day when people are full of smiles.

And as the New Year's Eve passes.

The northern land, which used to be like a land of ice and snow, with freezing temperatures and flawless white snow, has gradually begun to recover in temperature.

The snow is gradually melting and the climate is getting warmer.

Everything seems to be gradually beginning to show signs of recovery.

Under the delay of time step by step.

Before the New Year, the distilled liquor sent by Zhao Tong to various places was basically sufficient.

However, due to problems with military rations and other materials, and considering that it was only a preliminary test, the mass production of distilled liquor was extremely limited.

Rather, they were only given as gifts to the main civil and military officials in Shu.

As for the land of Jingzhou, firstly, it is a long way away, and secondly, the output is not enough, so we have not considered it for the time being and can only discuss it in the future.

However, Zhao Tong believes that the output of his own distilled liquor will increase indefinitely in the future to eliminate the current alcoholic beverages on the market.

Time passes day by day.

People in various states in China are slowly returning to normal life from the busy and fulfilling New Year.

And in various places in Yizhou after the New Year's Eve.

The dignitaries or officials from the upper class all started a heated discussion in unison.

The issue is the distilled liquor that Zhao Tong sent as a gift to the civil and military parties of all parties.

"Have you ever drank the wine known as Juxian Brewing?"

"Ah? I haven't drank this yet. It is said that it was brewed by Gongzi Tong, General Zilong, the Five Tiger General of Qiang Road, who led his troops to station in the border areas."

"I was lucky enough to get a jar. This is indeed a fine wine. It can be said that I am astonished."

"After drinking it for the first time, I just felt a spicy feeling in my mouth, and there seemed to be a ball of liver fire burning in my throat and lungs."

"But if you taste it carefully, you will have endless aftertaste, like drinking nectar."

"It's just that there's too little brewing, it's not satisfying at all!"

"That's right, after drinking this Juxian Brewing, I just feel that the water I drank before is hard to swallow at all."

"I really don't know when I will win the favor of Mr. Zhao again and give me another gift."

In the middle of Shu, all the civil and military people who received gifts of distilled wine are now spontaneously discussing the "Juxian Brewing" named by Zhao Tong.

The drinkers all clapped their hands and praised it without hesitation.

The most exaggerated one is Zhang Fei, the right-wing general currently stationed in Brazil County.

He is a drunkard by nature.

The best wine in my life.

At first, when a jar of wine was brought to him, he looked at the prospective son-in-law who was signed by him, and he thought it was Zhao Tong who was considerate and filial.

But when he actually took a sip.

Even a wine connoisseur like Zhang Fei, who had already tasted all the fine wines in the world and witnessed the great storms, could not help but shout with great excitement:

"What a fine wine this is? It is the most flavorful and exciting wine I have ever drunk in my life."

Also because he has always been famous for his drinking.

Therefore, after Zhang Fei arrived in Langzhong, he was crowned by the locals and was called the "Bacchus God."

Now "Juxian Brewing" has received such high praise.

This wine seems to have become an instant hit in Brazil County and surrounding areas.

First, it was spread among officials at all levels in Brazil.

And slowly spread to the market.

All the scholars, celebrities and common people gathered together to judge.

There are more and more people talking.

gradually……

Naturally, it also spread to Hanzhong County in the north, Zitong County in the west, Badong in the east, Ba County in the south and other places.

Because this fine wine was not just given to Zhang Fei alone.

The other civil and military personnel from all sides in the garrison were all unanimously impressed by the delicious food.

Exclaiming that this wine is a gift from God, it is brewed from the water of the gods.

Otherwise, how could it taste so delicious?

Then spread it step by step.

Juxian Brewing has also been given a fantasy color.

There are even rumors that Zhao Tong was favored by God and thus obtained the recipe for brewing this delicious wine.

It has been passed down time and time again.

It just makes people look at her with great envy.

All of a sudden.

In the land of Sanba, the legend of Juxian Brewing is spread everywhere.

Especially the civil and military officials who have drank such fine wine now basically don't want to touch ordinary wine anymore, and they always feel that the food is tasteless.

This is exactly what human habits are.

After you taste the more wonderful wines, you will quickly lose your appeal to the less delicious wines.

And this will only get worse.

This is the so-called "It is easy to move from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to move from luxury to frugality."

Especially between Chengdu.

Now many officials have become greedy.
