"You are such a good boss, you actually opened a winery without even asking me to come."
When they first met, Li Chengqian was completely rude.
It seemed that he was very familiar with Zhuang Zhou.
Zhuang Zhou smiled and said:
"It's just a trivial matter. How dare you trouble His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to worry about it?"
After saying this, he looked at Changle and asked:
"I heard that Her Royal Highness has learned to ride a bicycle?"
Zhuang Zhou had also heard about this from Li Er before.
It's very strange that Li Er always mentions Princess Changle in front of Zhuang Zhou from time to time.
Then he praised his precious daughter highly.
Zhuang Zhou didn't think much about it.
At this time, Changle heard this and smiled proudly:
"Yes! I can ride it now, and the prince has given me a bicycle."
As she spoke, she smiled sweetly and looked at Zhuang Zhou intently.
Zhuang Zhou was also attracted by Changle's outfit.
It has to be said that the Tang Dynasty was indeed open and inclusive.
When he first arrived, Zhuang Zhou was surprised to see women wearing men's clothing.
But later on, I saw more and more such things.
In this era, blond-haired and blue-eyed foreigners can be seen everywhere in Chang'an City.
There are more women wearing men's clothes and women riding horses and playing polo.
Even the retired emperor Li Yuan would occasionally play the pipa with the female musicians.
He had none of the arrogance and sour habits of later literati.
"By the way, Boss Zhuang, I remember you promised the prince that you would give him a big iron donkey?"
Zhuang Zhou remembered that this incident did happen.
But it was something I agreed to casually at the time.
After all, riding a motorcycle and riding a bicycle are two completely different things.
It's quite dangerous.
This is the prince!
If something happens to the future successor of the Tang Dynasty,
After that, my business in the Tang Dynasty would no longer be able to continue.
After thinking about it, Zhuang Zhou quickly came up with an idea:
"Your Highness, how about I give you a tractor?"
"tractor?"
Li Chengqian repeated it word by word.
Then he looked at Zhuang Zhou with confusion and asked:
"What is this?"
“A very interesting means of transportation.”
Zhuang Zhou thought, don’t you just want to drive?
The speed of a tractor is much safer after all.
I'll give you a tractor, and when next spring comes, I'll let you go plow the fields for fun.
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was driving a tractor to plow the soil.
Thinking of that picture, it’s very interesting.
Li Chengqian was obviously very interested when he heard this and said quickly:
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go now."
"No! I have to make wine first today, and I have all the ingredients ready.
Besides, it’s snowing in Mount Li now.
I'll get you another one from my hometown next spring."
"That's fine too!"
Li Chengqian nodded, and just remembered this matter.
In the past few days, Li Erdu and Zhuang Zhou have been busy with cement and refined salt.
Li Chengqian has been helping to handle government affairs of various ministries.
Now that I have some free time, I come to find Zhuang Zhou.
Who knew I heard that this guy started brewing wine again.
However, brewing wine is also Li Chengqian's favorite.
Of course he would not miss this good opportunity to join the gang.
Thinking of this, Li Chengqian said it directly:
"Boss Zhuang, I want to join the brewing business!"
Zhuang Zhou was stunned. He had never thought of making money from the original earth cement and refined salt.
It was presented to the court to show his sincerity.
Winemaking is an independent business.
But Li Chengqian also wanted to get involved.
I'm a little hesitant, are you planning to take advantage of the situation?
Zhuang Zhou was still hesitating when Li Chengqian spoke again:
"Boss Zhuang, don't worry. I joined the company not to make money, but to participate in the winemaking. Is that okay?!"
So that’s how it is. Why didn’t you tell me earlier?
Zhuang Zhou smiled brightly and said:
"Of course, no problem! I couldn't be happier to have His Royal Highness join us!"
All right!
This is totally false.
But that's what you have to say on the spot.
Next, Zhuang Zhou began to prepare for brewing wine.
Li Chengqian also knew how to make wine, but he had obviously never seen this set of wine-making equipment before him.
"Boss Zhuang, your winemaking equipment is very unique. What is it?"
Zhuang Zhou explained with a smile:
"This is a still. It can purify the wine, making it purer and tastier."
Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian's eyes flashed with surprise, and he exclaimed:
"Boss Zhuang is really creative. He can come up with such a wonderful wine-making method."
Zhuang Zhou smiled and didn't say much.
When he was a child in the countryside, he had seen his grandfather brewing wine.
But those are all brewed sorghum wine.
It uses fermented sorghum, and the wine will overflow when you squeeze it with your hands.
After distillation, pure liquor is obtained directly.
So it’s not difficult for Zhuang Zhou!
Just do it!
He ordered people to light the charcoal, which is what we call coal in later generations.
Coal already existed in this era.
However, the mining volume is still small and its application is not widespread.
Of course, the main reason is that the cost is too high.
Ordinary people simply can’t afford it.
Therefore, most of them are based on charcoal.
But now Li Chengqian has joined the team.
It became much easier for Zhuang Zhou to get coal.
Soon, Li Chengqian asked someone to bring a few carts of coal to the winery.
Next, Zhuang Zhou started to get busy and concentrate on brewing wine.
This was the first time he had done something like this, but he had already checked all the procedures beforehand.
