Chapter 166: Fine wine, the god of wine is born! 【34, please subscribe】
Before the New Year
Pingzhou Prefecture, on Wuli Street in the east of the city
A humble yet elegantly decorated tavern was opened.
This tavern is four doorways wide and is divided into inner and outer courtyards. The front yard is a three-story wooden restaurant with more than ten tables on each floor.
There is a counter on the left side of the lobby on the first floor!
Wei Han was wearing a green gown, dressed like a businessman, with a gentle smile on his face, looking around with satisfaction.
This is the result of his two months of hard work - named Qiongjiang Yuye Tower!
Ever since he decided to settle down in the county town, Wei Han had been busy all the time. On the one hand, he sent people to buy the wine shop and renovate it, and on the other hand, he returned to Shenjian Villa to start brewing wine!
The villa is spacious and has plenty of food!
With the help of disabled orphans from the charity, the winemaking process went smoothly.
Wei Han directly dug out a huge cave of several thousand square meters on the mountain wall behind the villa, and then built the wine-making base inside.
By speeding up the game, he has mastered the recipe of the wine, and after pushing several winemaking recipes to their limits, he obtained a special effect of the god of wine!
This special effect is somewhat similar to the God of Cooking special effect!
Directly increase the wine brewing quality by 50%, the wine tasting creativity by 50%, and the wine efficacy by 100%!
With the help of these BUFFs, Wei Han casually modified the recipe of the Qiongjiang Yuye wine and formulated three recipes of superior, medium and inferior using the materials he could find.
He named the first recipe Qiongjiang Liquor, which is brewed with 18 kinds of fruit ingredients, 12 kinds of medicinal herbs, and 3 kinds of monster blood. It can be sold in a month, and it has a very good nourishing effect on people below the Blood Refining Realm!
He named the second formula Jade Liquid Wine, which is brewed from 36 kinds of fruit ingredients, 18 kinds of medicinal herbs, 5 kinds of monster blood, and 5 kinds of monster bone marrow. It can be sold after two months, and it has a nourishing effect on people below the Marrow Washing Realm!
He named the third formula Qiongjiang Yuye Wine, which is brewed with the essence of 108 kinds of precious fruits, medicinal herbs, spiritual plants, and monsters. It takes three months to open the jar, and it has a nourishing effect on people below the Tiangang realm!
Of course, he didn't plan to sell this wine, he only planned to consume it himself.
The alcohol in this world is similar to rice wine, and the brewing time is very short, but the aroma will become more rich and fragrant after being stored for a long time. Therefore, it can be sold as soon as it is opened. If it is stored for a few more years before being sold, the price will naturally be higher.
"Brother Wei, are we just going to open like this?" Jiang Yiyi looked at the deserted look in the store and couldn't help but suggest, "Why don't we set off some firecrackers, or set up a few tables and invite a lion dancer to celebrate? That will also let the neighbors know that our store is open."
"No need!" Wei Han waved his hand nonchalantly, "I don't expect to make money from this thing. Good wine needs no bush. Let's just let nature take its course. Uncle Wang, you will be the manager of this store from now on. You will make the decisions when I'm not here."
"Okay, boss!" Coach Wang agreed happily.
“Puff!”
Jiang Yiyi couldn't help but chuckle.
"But our drinks are so good, it's a shame to have no customers!" Coach Wang suggested, "Why not set up a stall at the door and boil a jar of wine? I guarantee the aroma of the wine will spread to several streets, making it difficult for drinkers to control themselves."
Coach Wang has tasted these fine wines himself.
To be honest, I'm afraid it would be difficult to find such good wine even if you search the entire county.
Therefore, he was very much looking forward to the Qiongjiang Yuye Tower becoming famous quickly.
"It's up to you!" Wei Han waved his hand indifferently and began to write price tags on the wall behind the counter. He priced Qiongjiang wine at 100 taels per catty and Yuye wine at 1,000 taels per catty.
In addition, there is no kitchen in the tavern and no hot dishes are served!
There were only some peanuts, side dishes, braised meat and other snacks.
This is actually simple and convenient. When customers come, the store can easily serve them wine and snacks with a few diligent waiters.
"Brother Wei, isn't it too much to charge one hundred taels for one pound of Qiongjiang liquor?" Jiang Yiyi was speechless when she saw him writing the price on the wooden sign.
One hundred taels per catty? This price is simply sky-high.
Ordinary liquor only costs a few dozen coins, and more expensive high-end liquor is only a few to dozens of taels. How dare Wei Han mark the price as a hundred taels?
Jiang Yiyi knew the cost. One pound of this thing would contain at most seven or eight taels of materials. Even the Jade Liquid Liquor would only cost a few dozen taels.
In the wine-making cave at the back mountain of Shenjian Villa, dozens of large jars are brewed at a time, totaling several thousand kilograms. Why is it sold so expensively?
"You don't understand!" Wei Han laughed dumbly and said, "Wine is only sold to those who are destined to buy it. What's wrong with me making a little money from them for a sip of good wine? We are honest people. We don't cheat the poor, but only the rich!"
"All right!"
Jiang Yiyi was speechless.
She didn't think anyone would be taken advantage of.
But soon reality slapped her in the face and taught her a severe lesson.
When Coach Wang called a few shop assistants, set up a small stall in front of the door of the tavern, and then boiled a jar of liquor, the aroma of liquor began to spread throughout the street.
They don’t have to solicit customers or hawk drinks!
The aroma alone is enough to make passers-by stop in their tracks.
"What kind of wine is this? Why is it so fragrant? It smells so good that my mouth is watering!"
"Qiongjiangyuyelou? Oh my, you are so arrogant. When did such a wine shop open in our city?"
"Good wine, this is definitely good wine, man, give me a glass!"
A few drinkers were tempted by the wine and couldn't help but walk in!
But when he saw the price tag hanging on the counter, he was stunned.
"One hundred taels? One thousand taels? Are you crazy?" A big man said with disdain, "Other people's wine is only three or five taels at most, and you sell it for a hundred taels? Are you robbing people?"
"Sir!" Coach Wang said with a smile, "Our wine is not ordinary wine. If you have tasted it, you will definitely know that you get what you pay for. If you are not satisfied after tasting it, you can smash our store. I will not say a word!"
"Okay!" The big man sneered, "It's only a hundred taels. I can afford it. I want to see who dares to be so arrogant. Come and give me a pound!"
"All right!" Coach Wang sang loudly, "For this distinguished guest, I'll give you a pound of fine wine!"
After a while, the waiter in the store brought the wine jug over.
In full view of everyone, the big man poured out the wine and found that the wine was as crystal clear as blood amber, and it also exuded a faint fragrance. He took a sip tentatively, and was immediately shocked, and then squinted his eyes with a look of enjoyment and sweetness.
"How's it going, Old Xu? Is the wine okay?"
"No matter how good it is, it shouldn't be sold for a hundred taels, right?"
The drinkers around started to urge him to drink more.
It took the sturdy man a long time to exhale a long breath of alcohol.
His eyes lit up with excitement and he laughed loudly, "Good wine, really good wine, with a mellow and overbearing taste, and a strong nourishing effect. It has also increased my skin refining progress a lot. It's a good thing, and it's really worth a hundred taels!"
"Really? Are you a shill?"
"Who cares? It's only a hundred taels. Let's give it a try!"
"Let's go and give it a try. If it's not worth it, I'll smash this crappy store!"
Upon hearing the noise, many wealthy drinkers began to enter the tavern!
Soon, various exclamations were heard in the tavern.
Wei Han sat at the counter, calculating the bill while looking at the scene, a smile inevitably appeared on the corner of his mouth.
Stealing a little time to relax from busy life, enjoying a few drinks with close friends, this is the taste of life!
