The distillery has officially started construction.
Luo Yunhe is also very busy.
He put all the wine he had brewed into a large vat and sealed it himself.
Moreover, this large vat is custom-made, with a yellow exterior and a dragon pattern swirling on it.
The opening was sealed with a large lid, some cloth, and beeswax, and a special royal-use paper strip was attached to it.
A total of ten bars of Emperor's Smile.
Dry red wine, grape wine, osmanthus wine, peach wine, grape fruit drink, apricot fruit drink, forty vats in total.
One after another, powerful horse-drawn carriages carried away more than fifty jars of goods, setting off from Yue Shang Village towards the capital.
It was a grand affair, and the royal family even personally sent people to escort them.
From Yue Shang Cuo, to the town, and then from the town onto the official road... the entire journey was strictly guarded.
The Luo Family Winery became a sensation, becoming a tribute wine, a well-known and beloved wine in the surrounding area, and a wine that everyone wanted to taste.
Once the news spread, the business of Stealing Winery quickly expanded throughout the country.
People from cities thousands of miles away also placed enough orders here.
Luo Yunhe's monthly income ranges from a few hundred to tens of thousands... and this trend is still rising rapidly.
Business was booming.
He was extremely busy here, but his business elsewhere ended in dismal failure.
Some people couldn't keep going and simply closed their shops.
Even century-old wineries face significant challenges in their business.
However, they could not imitate Luo Yun and his family's wine. After all, his family's wine was indeed very unique. They had indeed studied it in private, but they could never make it taste like his family's wine.
"Miss Luo, why can't you make such wine even though you're a member of the Luo family?"
"I've heard that the Luo family winery in Moonlit Village is owned by the eldest daughter of the Luo family. You went to great lengths to seize everything from her, so how come you didn't know about the wine's recipe?"
"At least back then, many of us helped you get this position. Now look what's happened! They've opened such a large workshop and are now imperial merchants. Our business is so dismal; if this continues, we might very well go bankrupt!"
The owners of four or five long-established businesses were all stationed at the Luo family's residence.
Seeing this situation, Li Muran frowned deeply as he looked at his wife beside him.
Luo Jiaojiao also frowned: "Don't talk nonsense here. The owner of the Luo family winery in Yue Shang Village may not be my sister."
Besides, my sister disappeared on her own back then, what does it have to do with me? No matter what, I am his sister, I would never harm my own kind.
As for the distillery, I'm truly powerless to help. All I know is that these recipes won't produce such good wine, so what can I do? Instead of complaining here, you should think about how to salvage the situation!
His words left the others speechless. They knew what he said was true, but they were truly desperate and just wanted to find someone to take the blame.
"Everyone, stop arguing and tell us about the results of our recent research!" Li Muran said generously, "We've also tasted the wine from the Luo family's winery. That wine is made entirely from grapes."
However, we don't have the method for brewing this kind of fruit wine. I've tried brewing it using methods for making baijiu (Chinese white liquor), but the results weren't satisfactory. This means that fruit wine cannot be brewed using this method; there must be a unique technique involved.
"We don't know the method itself. The only thing we can do is try to learn it, so that we can salvage our losses."
We also tried making peach blossom wine and osmanthus wine. Although they weren't as mellow as the original and the taste was slightly different, we were still able to make them to some extent.
As for Emperor's Smile, those who have tasted it know that it has an apricot flavor. It is precisely this apricot flavor that gives Emperor's Smile its unique taste.
Therefore, we should put some effort into this!
“Mr. Li is right. I’ve tried those methods, and although they’re not as pure as the wine from Luo’s Winery, the taste is still acceptable!”
"Since the Luo family winery has so many ingenious ideas, why don't we send some people in to investigate their secrets?"
“Miss Luo, although what you said makes sense, how can you be sure that the owner of Luojia Winery isn’t your biological sister? Even if you could be sure that he’s not your sister, you could still have Luojia Winery escape those secret techniques. After all, you are now the head of the Luo family.”
Shouldn't he return Luo Jia's things that he took?
Upon hearing this, a glint flashed in Luo Jiaojiao's eyes, but she didn't show it on her face.
"Don't worry, Mr. Zhang, I will definitely verify this matter. If it's true, perhaps we can really obtain that secret formula, and everyone will benefit from it..."
After they sat together and discussed for a while, they slowly dispersed. After they left, Li Muran looked at his wife beside him.
“Jiaojiao, although I have never met the owner of the Luo family winery, the information I received indicates that the person looks exactly like your sister.”
"Husband, if it's him, why doesn't he come back? We treated him like that back then, he should come back for revenge. Besides, I took everything from him. No matter what, the Luo family belongs to her..."
"I'm also puzzled by this. We need to investigate it further!"
"No, I want to go myself!" Luo Jiaojiao's gentle expression vanished, her eyes hardening, and her hands clenched into fists, as if she had made up her mind.
"I don't care who he is, he's affecting the Luo family's business, this matter can't be let go. If he really is Luo Yunhe, that would be even better."
I want to ruin her reputation, and I want to take everything from her again!
Looking at Luo Jiaojiao's expression, Li Muran wore a concerned look on her face, but inwardly she was overjoyed. Since he was willing to take charge of this matter, she would leave it to him.
As for any consequences, Luo Jiaojiao will still bear them; what does it have to do with him?
With the harvest season upon us, Luo Yunhe is even busier than before.
The large workshop is bustling with activity every day.
Apricots, grapes, oranges, bayberries, plums, jujubes, and so on... all the crops planted later have yielded a bumper harvest and are being delivered to him.
