Chapter 24: I have a secret recipe
A few days later, Jiang Hao returned to Shibalipo.
When the guys saw Jiang Hao coming back, they greeted him, "Brother Zhan'ao is back. Is this transaction going well?"
"It's going well, it's pretty good." Jiang Hao said with a smile.
When he left, he told Jiuer that he was going to do business, and the guys naturally thought that this person was going to do business.
Hearing Jiang Hao's voice coming from outside, Jiuer ran out happily, "You're back."
"Hey, I'm back."
He took the bag on Jiang Hao's shoulder and Jiuer boiled water for him to take a bath. Jiang Hao stood in the main room with a bare ass, and Jiuer carefully wiped his body with a towel.
"Release your hand."
Jiang Hao raised his hands honestly, Jiuer turned to the front, looked there, patted him with his hands, and said with a smile, "I said raise your hand, why are you standing up?"
Jiang Hao laughed and said, "He misses you, hahaha."
Jiuer gave him a blank look, "I have been out for several days and don't know how to rest."
"Haha, he's not tired."
Rubbing the towel carefully, Jiuer said casually: "I heard from the guys that the police chief Gaomi was killed, and bandits entered the house, strangled to death." After that, he looked at Jiang Hao intentionally or unintentionally.
Jiang Hao looked at Jiuer's big eyes, smiled at the corner of his mouth, and whispered: "I did it, don't say it out."
Jiuer's hand froze, "You really did it. When I heard this news, my first thought was that you did it."
A cold light flashed in Jiang Hao's eyes, "He made you suffer, so he deserved to die. I said, don't let you suffer."
Jiuer had a layer of mist in her eyes, and her face was pressed against the man's chest. She had only one idea in her mind. She would definitely serve him well in the future.
lifetime!
Half a month passed in a flash. The Luohan came over and said that the grain had fermented. Today, he was about to release wine and let the boss lady and Jiang Hao go over and take a look.
Finally started brewing.
Jiang Hao and Jiuer both came to the shochu shop excitedly. In the shochu shop, the workers were busy one by one, and the Luohan explained the steps to make shochu to the two.
"At the beginning, I choose ingredients and pick good grains. When I make various grain ratios, each has its own secret recipes, and then it is mixed wine koji. Our winery has its own old koji. After mixing wine koji, it will ferment. This process is the longest, usually about ten to twenty days. When the grain is fermented, you can steam it in the pot, and then the wine can be produced."
"Shopkeeper, you guys are here to watch. I will take someone to start steaming wine." The Luohan nodded, walked up the stove, and began to issue orders.
"Erga, Daling, feed."
"Big Zhuang, second Zhuang, you need a big fire!"
"Old Zhong, Chengzi, add cold water..."
The winery was drying in full swing. Soon, I saw red wine flowing out of the steamed wine pot.
The wine head in front cannot be used, so it is splashed off directly. After half a barrel is flowed out, this is the real wine. Seeing the sorghum wine coming out of the pot, Jiang Hao was also excited. This task was finally completed.
When the wine was out of the pot, Luohan took a bowl and took it with some excitement. He walked to the statue of Baccarat, held the bowl with both hands and muttered the words: "Toast the new wine to Grandpa of Baccarat, please ask Grandpa of Baccarat to bless the new wine with deliciousness." After that, he sprinkled a bowl of wine on the ground.
Others also stood solemnly, with a very ritual sense.
The Arhat walked back to take another bowl, and this time he slowly brought it to his mouth for a sip. After drinking, the Arhat frowned.
Erdan's father asked next to him: "Brother Luohan, how about the wine?"
Luohan smacked his lips and handed over the wine bowl. Erdan's father took it and took a sip. He immediately frowned, "It's a little astringent."
Others also went up to taste the wine.
"It's really astringent."
"It's far worse than the previous drinks, what's going on?"
"Yes, no one is willing to buy this smell."
"This pot of wine is probably useless, alas."
Hearing the guys say this, Jiuer's face immediately looked sad. Jiang Hao walked up, picked up a bowl of wine, took a sip, and it still smelled of sorghum wine, but it was bitter.
The sorghum wine used to be not very delicious, but this time it came out is even more difficult to drink. It is not fragrant, not mellow and has a bitter taste. I guess most people would not be willing to drink it.
Luohan looked at Jiuer and asked, "Shopkeeper, this pot of wine is probably useless. No wine shop is willing to ask for such wine. Do you see if we stop and find the reason."
Jiuer didn't understand these things very much. He was about to follow the words of the Arhat, then stop, but then Jiang Hao spoke, "Brother Arhat, don't stop, do it all."
"But if you do this, you will be ruined. After a day or two, we can find the reason before we can make a fuss." Luo Han said.
"I'm not afraid of wasting it. This pot is mine. Since the grain has been fermented, it doesn't matter if it can't be sold. I'm paying for the next pot."
"And I have a secret recipe that can change the taste of wine. I don't know if it will succeed. I'll try it tonight."
The Luohan looked at Jiuer. Jiuer listened to Jiang Hao now, "Brother Luohan, just listen to him and do everything."
When Luohan thought, the money was paid by Jiang Hao. He said that the wine should be paid. Sometimes it depends on luck to make wine. If there is a problem with this batch of fermentation, it is very likely that it will be like this. Even if it lasts for a day or two, he may not be able to find a solution.
A jar of wine was out of the pot and moved to the wine cellar. Jiang Hao called Dazhuang Erzhuang, "Move four jars of wine to Jiuer's house, I'll try if my secret recipe is effective."
Dazhuang and Erzhuang obediently brought four jars of wine to the uphill.
After a busy day, more than 100 jars of wine were released, leaving two people to watch the stove. As long as the stove is turned on, it cannot be extinguished. It is a rule that the pot of wine has to be released before the stove can be extinguished.
After a day of exhaustion, I lay on the kang with a simple wash and the guys started chatting.
"I think our salted wine shop will not be able to continue. I finally started the pot and the pot of wine is broken. I don't know if I can start the next pot."
"Didn't Brother Zhan'ao say there is a secret recipe? Maybe it's done."
"You know, what secret recipe does he have? He has already gone to Dajiufang to make a fortune. Come to our broken place."
"I want me to tell you, that evil spirit has not yet passed, evil spirit."
Everyone was in a bad mood, so they chatted for a few more words before going to bed.
In the Jiuer room on the hillside, there were four jars of wine in the main hall. Jiuer looked at the jar and asked, "You really have a secret recipe that can make the wine delicious."
Jiang Hao smiled, opened the lid of the four jars of wine, took out the big bird and started to sniff, and the rain and dew were evenly touched, and he did not let go of every jar.
"Oh, why are you wasting things?" Jiuer said angrily.
"Haha, this is my secret recipe, no one can tell you." After saying that, the shaking bird was stuffed back, hugged Jiuer and said, "Go, go to sleep, and see the results tomorrow."
"You!"
Jiuer stopped after saying a few words and scolded him, but she couldn't bear to let him go.
Chapter completed!
