The traditional Chinese characters above are the ones used in this dynasty. Fortunately, he has no reading difficulties, otherwise he would probably be exhausted to death if he were asked to rewrite them.
Opening the "Wubei Zhi", it happened to be the volume on military supplies. Gu Lingze saw firearms from the cold weapons. Suddenly, his eyebrows moved and his fingers tapped on the two words "firearms".
He lowered his head and thought for a while, then stretched and decided to go out and take a nap.
Early in the morning, Gu Lingze opened his eyes, looked at the sky outside, got up and washed.
When I arrived at the main hall, I found that breakfast had not been prepared yet. I asked and found out that today was a day off and I didn't have to go to court.
That’s perfect, Gu Lingze thought, and turned around to go out to find Qian Bo.
"Uncle Qian, can you please send someone to the Taifu Mansion to bring Grandfather and the others over?"
After hearing this, Qian Bo quickly gave orders.
When everyone sat down at a table, everyone could see that Gu Lingze was in a good mood today.
"Lingze, why did you bring us here so early in the morning?" Xie Xiru asked.
"Grandfather, let's eat first and tell you after we finish eating."
Everyone was somewhat curious, but since Gu Lingze had said so, they decided to suppress their curiosity and have breakfast first.
After dinner, Gu Lingze called Zhao Chengmo back to the room.
The two of them moved the three books to the study together, placed them on the table after entering, and Gu Lingze turned around and closed the door.
When Xie Xiru saw that it was a book box, he stood up immediately with his eyes shining.
Gu Lingze put his hand on it and said, "Grandfather, if you want to read these books, you have to agree to one condition of mine first." After saying that, he looked at his eldest brother, second brother, Zhao Chengmo, and Xie Luocheng.
Xie Xiru stamped his feet in a rage, "Why are you still keeping me in suspense, you little brat? Hurry up and tell me!!"
"You can't neglect your sleep and food because of reading, otherwise there will be no next book."
Upon hearing this, Xie Xiru became even more anxious and nodded quickly, almost writing a letter of guarantee.
The others couldn't sit still anymore and nodded as well.
Gu Lingze first opened the book case of "Zizhi Tongjian", took out the first volume and handed it to Xie Xiru. The other party took it and immediately sat on the chair to read it.
He opened the "Wu Bei Zhi" again. The one given to Gu Tianhua was the review of military tactics, Zhao Chengmo was the test of strategy, Gu Xiuyi was the military equipment, and Gu Feirui was the formation training system.
As soon as the first volume of "The Exploitation of the Works of Nature" was taken out, Xie Xiru took a deep breath and his hands began to tremble. He ran to the desk as fast as he could, placed the "Zizhi Tongjian" on it and read it carefully, even forgetting to sit on a chair.
Xie Qingwan smiled and shook her head, then helped her father sit down. During this time, Xie Xiru's eyes never left the pages of the book.
Several people were staring at the book, and the only sound in the room was the turning of pages. Gu Lingze and Xie Qingwan smiled at each other, closed the door and went out.
Gu Lingze planned to go to Mu Tao Courtyard, and Xie Qingwan was also preparing for the plum blossom viewing banquet the day after tomorrow.
Today he was going to teach Aunt Li how to make koji. He had already written down the steps so that she could be familiar with the process. Today he would teach the entire production process so that Aunt Li could master it.
Yeast is the key to brewing wine. Brewing wine with grains can be divided into two main categories. One is to germinate the grains, using the enzymes produced during the germination of the grains to saccharify the raw materials themselves into sugar, and then use yeast to convert the sugar into alcohol. The other is to use moldy grains to make yeast, and use the enzyme preparations contained in the yeast to saccharify and ferment the grain raw materials into wine.
Brewing wine with koji is the essence of Chinese winemaking. Qu is the mother of wine and there are many types of wine.
Gu Lingze is going to make Daqu today. The general process is to pile up the wheat and grind it, then add water and stir it evenly, and put it into a pre-made mold. After the extrusion is completed, it becomes a qu blank, which is placed in the fire room for cultivation.
Gu Lingze used the Flame Talisman to keep the temperature of the wine before, but this method obviously didn't work for Aunt Li and the others.
So he wrote down the method of making a fire wall on a piece of paper and asked Uncle Xu to convert the side kitchen into a fire room for making koji.
The temperature in the fire room must be kept between fifty and sixty degrees to make good music.
During the production process, Gu Lingze asked Aunt Li to ask questions if she found any problems she didn't understand. After all, making koji is a delicate and rigorous job, and there must be no mistakes in every link.
Because there was no thermometer, Gu Lingze could only ask Aunt Li to measure the temperature of the fire room by feeling her body surface. He didn't expect that the other party could grasp the approximate range after going in and out twice, which really made him overjoyed.
After laying straw on top and instructing on the time for watering, the next process is for the three uncles to work hard to turn the koji every seven days, so that the taste of the koji can be at its best.
The rest will be handed over to Aunt Li and the others. In the future, more and more koji will be needed. Except for Hantan Xiang, the wines he made before did not use koji, so the process was much more troublesome, so it is better to be convenient this way.
"Lingze, let's have dinner here in a while. Auntie will make you your favorite scallion pancakes."
Gu Lingze sighed helplessly, "Aunt Tao, I don't have this blessing today. There are still a few bookworms at home waiting for me to supervise them."
After saying that, he said hello to Uncle Xu and the others and left.
Aunt Tao looked at Uncle Xu with curiosity, "Dad, what is a bookworm?"
Huang Shulang looked at Aunt Tao seriously, "Aunt, when are we going to eat the scallion pancakes?"
When Gu Lingze returned home, Qian Bo was making lanterns with Jinzi and Lingzi. As soon as he appeared, Lingzi immediately rushed over.
"elder brother."
Gu Lingze touched Lingzi's head and asked, "Have you eaten?"
The two nodded, and he looked at Qian Bo, "Grandfather, have they eaten yet?"
Qian Bo smiled and shook his head. "The old man didn't even leave his study today."
Gu Lingze guessed it was the case, so he turned and went to the study.
When I pushed open the door, I saw that several people in the room were all concentrating on reading the books in their hands. They looked like they wished they wouldn't even blink.
Gu Lingze shook his head and sighed, walked to the desk, and placed his palm on Xie Xiru's Zizhi Tongjian.
Xie Xiru suddenly raised his head and said, "What are you doing? Stop making trouble."
"Grandfather, what did you forget to promise me?"
Xie Xiru said anxiously, "I must eat. I'll go right after I finish reading this."
"No." Gu Lingze pulled the book out. "If Grandfather doesn't keep his word, then I won't give you the next dozen volumes."
He turned to the other four and said, "The same goes for you."
Everyone started to panic and said it was not possible.
"Then go eat quickly. The kitchen has heated up the food several times."
Xie Xiru stood up helplessly, "Okay, okay, let's go eat."
Gu Feirui came over and said, "Lingze, can I watch while eating?"
