Maybe Dionysus never imprisoned Zhang Wei, or had some other ideas, but after hearing that Zhang Wei had a problem with Athena's fighter, he was still willing to see Zhang Wei causing trouble for Athena.
Afterwards, Dionysus took Zhang Wei to visit his brewing factory without any technical taboos.
"The most important thing about making wine is the water source!"
"The bottom layer is turbid water, which is water with many kinds of microorganisms, such as rivers, lakes and seas. Using this water to make wine cannot guarantee the distribution ratio of microorganisms, and it can easily cause pollution and produce odor, which is fatal to high-precision brewing.
of."
"The middle level is pure water, which is completely purified distilled water, pure water molecules. This kind of water is pure. It does not pollute the food at all, and of course it does not have any additives."
"The high-end ones are various spring waters, etc., which are rich in minerals and have no dirty substances, so they are most suitable for drinking."
Zhang Wei asked: "Then what did you use? Is it all spring water?"
"Of course not. My wine must not only supply Olympus, but also become an economic commodity to exchange materials and establish connections with other civilizations. How can there be so many spring water?"
Dionysus took Zhang Wei around the island. There were seventeen water inlets on the island, which introduced the endless ocean into them. After distillation and purification, the eliminated salt particles could also be used to pave bridges and roads and be used for infrastructure construction.
The organic matter in seawater can also be made into fertilizer with the eliminated distiller's grains, which can be used in the construction of crop fields.
Zhang Wei made a rough estimate and found that the amount of clean water produced here in one day is astonishing and difficult to measure.
Walking into the factory, even the water used to rinse the grain is purified pure water. No wonder the consumption is so huge!
"I have to clean billions of tons of grain every day, and the amount of wine I brew is countless. The lowest food level is above level 18."
This kind of wine is also called ration wine. It doesn’t require great texture and taste, but it is versatile and cheap.
It is also the main force of merchandise.
However, the wine consumption on Dionysian Island itself is also huge. An ordinary worker drinks dozens of kilograms of alcohol a day, not counting the livestock, plants, crops, etc. that need to be fed by wine.
After that, there is an explanation of various crops. All the plants here are prepared for wine making. They are rich in starch and sugar and are the result of countless generations of improved varieties.
What Zhang Wei values the most is...
Liquor!
That is, the mark that allows the grain to ferment!
Arriving at the Mold Warehouse, the security here is extremely tight, and the strength of the guards is no less than that of the Bronze Saints we saw before. It seems that all the wealth of Dionysus is here.

There are also mugwort, mulberry leaves, bamboo leaves, lentil leaves, cinnamon leaves, licorice, etc., which are some common crop ingredients or medicinal ingredients, which are very niche.
Basically, winemaking is the use of yeast enzymes to convert protein and starch into sugar, and then into ethanol to become wine.
So these materials are all hotbeds, and what is really effective is the yeast living on them!
Normally, yeast does not need to be inherited or added. You only need to create a suitable hotbed culture medium, and exclusive fungi will float to it in the air and then multiply.
Afterwards, Dionysus explained various types of Aspergillus, Daqu, Xiaoqu, Monascus, Wheat, and Glutinous yeast...
Zhang Hou and Zhang Wei saw how to make a petri dish from various grains, fruits and other glycogen, and then ventilate and drain it to make distiller's yeast. When making wine, you only need to add the distiller's yeast to it.
In the field of wine making, Zhang Wei's level is far from that of him, and it can be said that he has benefited a lot.
Zhang Wei was also deeply moved by Dionysus's devoted teachings.
Zhang Weidao: "If laymen are to explore this knowledge, they will never be able to reach this level after decades of study."
Dionysus smiled narrowly: "Hey, I have been studying these things for three hundred years. If you count the previous small-scale research, it would be at least eight hundred years. You want to study it after decades? I will give you the title of Dionysus.
alright."
"I didn't mean this..."
"Ha, I understand what you mean, but as long as you like wine, it's best if everyone drinks it. Delicious food should be shared. If you can only enjoy it by yourself, no matter how good the wine is,
It’s also tasteless.”
Zhang Wei was stunned.
This layout is really unimaginable, and such technology and talent are really admirable!
Even in Alu's time, such talented people were rare.
Zhang Wei really wanted to learn winemaking techniques here for a while, but he probably didn't have enough time. Zhang Wei was determined to get the golden apple.
After thanking Dionysus, Zhang Wei left the Bacchus Island alone, came to a winery along the way, and captured everyone.
Zhang Wei waved away all the wine and said to the workers: "Tell Dionysus later that I put the money in exchange for wine in its brewing tank and let him open it himself."
…………
A few hours later, Dionysus received the news. Because Zhang Weiqian's movement was very small, Dionysus did not sense it like last time.
When it arrives, open the jar and take a look.
"Yuan Shui... first level, second level, third level... hiss, there is even Tianyi Divine Water!"
"This little guy is worthy of being a wandering traveler. He even has this rare water! If you use this thing to make wine, it will definitely be the best wine in the world!"
"Speaking of which, I have never used Tianyi Shenshui as a raw material to make wine."
The amount of Tianyi Divine Water Zhang Wei left behind was not much, probably only as much as a basin, but the value of this kind of thing was so important that even Dionysus had not yet obtained enough to make wine.
I think back then, the Tianyi Divine Water left to Immortal Longbeard was only a small amount, a hundred times worse than this.
However, Zhang Wei believes that the value of the knowledge transmitted by Dionysus is far beyond what Tianyi Divine Water can offset, but the ability to generate unlimited Tianyi Divine Water without revealing the wealth will definitely make countless people crazy with jealousy.
