Liu Jiannan showed curiosity and simply brought a stool.
"Uncle, can you tell me the liquor you are talking about in detail? If you have some ideas, let me see if I can brew it later."
Lin Chong also said: "Wine-making, do you know why people get drunk easily?"
"Well... I only know that if you eat too much, you will definitely get drunk, but I don't know why you get drunk." Liu Jiannan shook his head, "I have also eaten alcohol, and I feel dizzy after eating.
If you eat too much, you will vomit, make you feel nauseous and uncomfortable the next day, and you will not be able to drink alcohol for several days, and it is extremely harmful to your health."
Lin Chong stared at him thoughtfully. It seemed that Liu Jiannan was a wine addict. In order to study winemaking, he also experimented with himself.
"Oh? You are really attentive."
Liu Jiannan said with a serious face: "If you want to brew good wine, of course you have to test it yourself. I just want to feel what it tastes like and why it is like this. In fact, even if my uncle doesn't ask, I also have this doubt in my heart."
Lin Chong hesitated. If he was taught chemistry knowledge, it would be too complicated and might be counterproductive and leave him confused.
He pondered for a moment, this high-altitude wine must be explained properly, it must be easy to understand, or it must be a little mysterious to make it easier for people to believe.
Lin Chong traveled through time and knew at most the brewing process of liquor, but he was completely blank on how to operate it and how to test it.
He has no theory, but if it comes to implementation, someone must do it.
This process can be very time-consuming and the cycle will be very long.
Thinking of this, Lin Chong's eyes fell on Liu Jiannan.
This boy is calm-minded, independent-minded, steady-tempered, neither impatient nor impetuous.
Thinking about it this way, he is indeed the most suitable person to do this.
Lin Chong had plans for wine making.
Since ancient times, wine has been banned many times.
Even if food is difficult, wine is still a necessity. Whether in prosperous times or troubled times, wine and drinks are things that people from all over the world love.
If he wants to dominate the world, before he becomes strong, he will be extravagant and extravagant in the court.
It doesn't matter whether it is naturally fragrant or brewed soju.
These are soft weapons that erode their will. Not only that, they will also bring an endless stream of gold and silver to Liangshan.
Although winemaking consumes a lot of food, Lin Chong has sweet potatoes and potatoes. If we have a piece of food in the future, there will most likely be no problem.
By then the foundation for winemaking will be in place.
As for the cultivation of sweet potatoes and potatoes, Lin Chong also has plans.
Zhang Qing, a vegetable gardener, heard that he was good at growing vegetables.
The key is that this guy is very interested in farm work and planting various crops, which is also his hobby.
"In this case, it would be interesting if one day Zhang Qing becomes a big shot in agriculture." Lin Chong was wandering in his mind. Although he thought a lot, it only took a moment.
Thinking of this, Lin Chong looked at Liu Jiannan and said: "Xiao Liu, actually there is something in the wine we drank that is the source of our drunkenness."
"What is that? Please teach me, uncle." Liu Jiannan had a look of eagerness on his face, as if the boy was so excited that he couldn't control himself as long as he mentioned the knowledge about drinks.
"There is an essence in wine, which is called the essence of wine. We can call it alcohol! The reason why we get drunk after eating wine is the ability of alcohol." Lin Chong first made up a random gimmick and said slowly.
"Alcohol? So this is what makes us drunk?" Liu Jiannan suddenly realized.
Lin Chong added: "For ordinary wine, if the alcohol content is not enough, then people will not get drunk easily. If the alcohol content is very strong, then the wine will be particularly strong!"
"Isn't it true that alcohol is rich and the more of it there is, the easier it is for us to get drunk when we eat this kind of wine?"
"You can teach me, boy!" Lin Chong grinned, "We are drinking right now, but we don't have enough alcohol, so I asked you to brew a higher-alcohol drink. This drink is extremely strong. If it is brewed successfully, it will definitely sell well."
"Is it easy to get drunk?" Liu Jiannan asked.
"Ordinary people get drunk after half a bowl." Lin Chong said.
joke!
If you brew a tyrannical 60-proof wine like Shaodaozi, you can drink it in one sip and it will be cooked from start to finish.
With the style of a noble man, lowering the alcohol content to about 50 degrees will definitely lead to madness.
Wine is sometimes used by the rich and powerful to show their status.
The more extraordinary, the more expensive it is.
After thinking this, Lin Chong felt proud.
Liu Jiannan stood up at the side and said in disbelief: "Uncle's words were unheard of before. Half a bowl can make people drunk. How rich must the essence of the wine be?"
Lin Chong disagreed. In his impression, historical Shaju actually had its prototype in the Tang Dynasty, and there were also some drinks with relatively high alcohol content in the Song Dynasty.
However, this technology is not perfect. If a breakthrough is achieved in Lin Chong's hands, then there will be a steady stream of wealth.
interesting.
Lin Chong concluded: "You should think about it first! I will tell you in detail after I go to Liangshan. If you brew liquor, I will reward you heavily."
"I don't want a reward. When the time comes, my uncle will let me make wine with peace of mind. I like this thing." Liu Jiannan said excitedly, "My sister always says that I don't do my job properly, but I am willing to deal with wine making."
"It's a good thing that you have this skill. When you go up the mountain, you can just make wine with your heart. You can study it with concentration. I will also tell you some tips. However, you have to figure out how to do it and how to operate it."
Lin Chong said.
"Uncle, if you teach me like this, you are my mentor!" Liu Jiannan knelt down in front of Lin Chong without even thinking.
"It doesn't have to be like this." Lin Chong waved his hand.
Liu Jiannan said: "This is a secret that has not been taught. If I, Liu Jiannan, know it but don't understand it, it would be my ignorance and rudeness! Master, please give me a bow!"
Without thinking, Liu Jiannan kowtowed heavily without hesitation.
Lin Chong understood that ancient times were very particular about the inheritance of master and apprentice, and many secrets were passed on through the relationship between master and apprentice.
Liu Jiannan kowtowed and knelt down, which was not only a sign of apprenticeship, but also an upright and upright sign that he had a master-student relationship.
In this way, there is traceability, allusions, and inheritance.
Lin Chong nodded secretly, this boy's mind was much smarter than Liu Heizi's.
"Okay! Get up! No need for red tape." Lin Chongxu gave him a hand.
Liu Jiannan got up and said respectfully: "Disciple will send Shu Xiu up in a while. Please don't blame me, Master."
Lin Chong almost laughed. This guy was very serious about his actions, which was quite interesting.
However, he still admired it very much. Maybe people with such a personality can focus on doing one thing well and then achieve their perfection.
The two chatted for a while. After most of the day, there was the sound of horse hooves in the distance, but it was Lu Zhishen and others who arrived.
Everyone dismounted and saluted Lin Chong.
Lin Chong looked around and asked strangely: "Why don't we see brother Yang Zhi?"
