But such a river has a history of indiscriminate dumping that has been strictly prohibited by the local government since ancient times. The locals also keep this in mind, so few people will introduce sewage into the river, and even the phenomenon of washing barefoot in summer is very common. Happens less.

Of course, this is also related to the remote location of the surrounding area, because the farther the river goes to the southeast, the more inaccessible it becomes, and there are uneven rocks along the way.

Moreover, the wineries along the coast have consciously protected this primitive terrain, which is why the five or six ancient wineries that existed nearly a hundred years ago have never been relocated.

But there are other secrets in this river that cannot be hidden from Liu Qingshan's Qi detection power. He had discovered that there was a trace of spiritual substance in the river water before. Even though it was only an insignificant trace, he also discovered that there was something in the lake. 's biggest secret.

He had thought about tracing back to the source along the river, but he never made time.

But the reason why Liu Qingshan brought his two daughters here was not just to enjoy the countryside scenery, but also because there was a small restaurant run by the Zhang family not far from the wall of the winery.

Logically speaking, restaurants that produce swill are not allowed to exist along the Yuanli River. Fortunately, this small restaurant was originally opened by the Zhang family, and there are strict measures to deal with the problem of swill, so it is here in this kind of restaurant. The location appears.

The purpose of Liu Qingshan's bringing them here was that this restaurant did not buy any big fish or meat, but only served a kind of soup-less noodle dish called bean braised noodles by the locals.

At the same time, this noodle dish is also a recipe of the Zhang family since ancient times. Compared with the braised bean noodles from street stalls, it has a more beautiful taste.

The owner of this restaurant works in the winery and is run by his family. It mainly supplies food to the employees of the winery. People from outside rarely come because of the inconvenient transportation.

It was already midnight, so of course it had been closed long ago. However, the man who came over was Liu Qingshan, the male owner of this restaurant. Of course, he could open the door with just one voice.

The proprietress, known as Aunt Yuehua, is a rural woman in her fifties, with a kind face and a smile that makes everyone smile.

Of course she could recognize Liu Qingshan's voice. Although he had only been here twice before, the impression that his voice could be heard clearly even in the small courtyard of Sanjin was quite impressive.

Besides, he was also the big boss behind the winery, so Le Dian Dian came running to open the door before they had to wait for a few minutes.

"We only make one kind of food here, which is the local flavor of braised beans and noodles, but it can't be as delicious as other places. You will definitely remember it after eating it!"

Liu Qingshan's introduction made Taylor, a foodie, very interested, and it was a rare thing for her that there was a restaurant that only dealt with one kind of food.

So before Liu Qingshan and the two sat down, she ran to the kitchen to watch.

Jin Xishan smiled and nodded: "I heard from Guo Qiang. According to him, it is a kind of braised noodles that uses steam to simmer noodles and beans. Many people in the Zhang family can make it, but only this small restaurant has the best taste." Authentic and limited supply every day!”

Liu Qingshan said happily: "It's not that Aunt Yuehua doesn't want to make money, but the production process is too cumbersome. She is worried about the different tastes when others help her, so she insists on doing it herself, so she is really busy when it's meal time. It’s cold and doesn’t taste good, so you can’t prepare it in advance, so it’s limited supply!”

"The Romance of Fairy Wood"

"Is it really so delicious? I can't help but drool. This is the first time I'm so greedy for a bowl of noodles!"

"The food in China is so rich. Again, if you have time, I will take you to various places. Almost every place has its own characteristics, and some, like our Zhangyu wine, leave The local water and soil cannot produce that taste!”

"You have promised me several times, but you have never fulfilled it once!"

"Let's get busy this year. Once we have a few film and television works of our own, we will have time to stop and settle down, or let other directors complete the filming!"

"Well, I'll wait for you."

"No need to wait, you will be busier than me next time. You have to release a new album and record "The Legend of Zhen Huan" at the same time!"

"Yes, there are 76 episodes, and it will take more than half a year to shoot one episode for three days. I'm afraid it will have to be filmed until next spring!"

"That's not true. There are too many characters in it, and it's impossible to only use one or two directors and one or two lines. The script is complete and does not need to be deleted or changed. If the three lines are shot together, the progress will be greatly improved. "

"The overall progress is faster, but is my task heavier? There are only two thousand scenes in total, and I need to appear in more than a thousand scenes alone. There are too many scenes!"

"How about I help you adjust your role?"

"I don't, because I have a hunch that because of the role of Zhen Huan, it will completely establish a foothold in the mainland market. Maybe it can win many awards through this role, and there is a market for such palace dramas in our cold country."

"This is indeed a reason, but why didn't you mention that you cried many times while reading the script?"

"Oh, that girl Xiangling told you, right? See how I deal with her when I get back!"

"Haha, what else can you do to deal with it? It hurts even more than usual! There were several times I tried to say something to her but you didn't agree."

"You are just not allowed to talk about him. Today's young people will never have such a sensible child as Xiangling!"

The two of them just started bickering and took the topic away. Even when Taylor asked when he came back, he couldn't tell what the first topic was.

Braised noodles with green beans were also served. Although the taste was very good, it was not unforgettable.

Liu Qingshan brought them here mainly because he couldn't get too involved in the Zhang family's affairs and found an excuse to kill time.

After eating and returning to the winery, the Zhang family's cellar opening ceremony was over, and Liu Qingshan entered the wine cellar alone.

It's not that he doesn't want to bring Jinxi Shan's two daughters with him, but it's because there is a taboo in the Zhang family's brewing rules that prohibits women from entering.

This kind of situation exists in many old trades. It cannot be said to be patriarchal or superstitious. In Liu Qingshan's view, rules are rules and there are always reasons for their existence. As an outsider, there is no need to feel suspicious because of these.

The brewing quantity of this batch of wine was several hundred tons, one ton was 2,000 kilograms, but it basically squandered all the medicinal materials he had brought from the cold country.

Although there are more medicinal materials obtained from the United States, they can obviously satisfy the brewing needs of two cellars, which is about a thousand tons in total.

This number is a bit too low, because taking Moutai as an example, the annual output is about 60,000 tons. This gap is not generally large.

Although the properties of the two wines are not comparable, because a half-pound bottle of Zhangyu Shaojiu costs tens of thousands of Chinese dollars, and this is still the ex-factory price.

But the herbs needed for brewing are too difficult to find. Maybe after these three cellars, we won't be able to open them again for several years. After all, it is true that the future is worrying.

Moreover, if the supply of thousands of tons of finished products is open, the sales volume will be maintained for several years, but the use of the last batch of medicinal herbs is imperative. Otherwise, grass plants have a storage period. The longer it is delayed, the more serious the loss of its medicinal properties will be. .

Therefore, the best way is to limit the supply. For this reason, the Zhang family, as the organizer, proposed to Liu Qingshan that he must find someone he trusts to guard the warehouse. Otherwise, if it is left to the Zhang family, problems will easily arise.

Liu Qingshan had actually thought of this a long time ago and was just waiting for the Zhang family to take the initiative to propose it. Fortunately, the Zhang family headed by Zhang Jinghua lived up to his wishes.

The storage location is also ready. The warehouse in Yu Chenhui's martial arts gym is an excellent location. It is currently undergoing a surprise renovation. Then a full set of monitoring facilities are installed, and some experts from the martial arts gym are hired to take care of it. It will definitely be better than A professional security company is better.

The current Guowu Hall is well-known because the 36-hand simplified version of Huaquan taught by Liu Qingshan has greatly improved the overall strength of the students in the hall.

This attracted more new students, and even many foreigners traveled thousands of miles to study. Even if the martial arts gym today is not the largest in the mainland, it is at least ranked very high.

Of course, the latest attraction is Liu Qingshan's signature. Yu Chenhui and Yu Yi paid 20% for this, allowing him to serve as an advertising spokesperson. In fact, it is just using his name. He will not really appear. In the daily teaching of the martial arts school.

The warehouse is not big enough to hold all the wine. Fortunately, 30% will be left in the century-old cellar of Changyu Winery. This is because pure grain wineries will store part of the base wine for the blending of liquor. process.

The base wine is the basic wine, also known as the base wine among the people. It has not been blended in any way and has a very high alcohol content.

The production of base liquor is actually a brewing process. Grain and koji are fermented and distilled to produce the original liquor body.

Store the original wine in a specific place for a period of time. The odors and harmful substances in the original wine will gradually evaporate as the storage time becomes longer, and the body of the wine will begin to become mellow and soft, thus becoming a useful The base wine for blending is the base wine.

This kind of wine will never be sold to the outside world, but will all be sealed for personal use.

Let’s take the Maotai-flavor Maotai liquor as an example. Good Maotai-flavor liquor is based on the liquor taken several times and is aged for a period of time before blending.

Moutai needs to be aged for five years. After aging, other original wines of different years, different alcohol contents and other flavors are added for blending.

Basically, other wines are responsible for fine-tuning the flavor, taste, etc.; the base wine accounts for the majority of the entire wine, so the base wine must be good. A good base wine can turn into a good wine even if it is blended casually.

It is said that over the past 70 years of Moutai Distillery, Moutai has stored hundreds of thousands of tons of base liquor in its wine warehouse. What is the concept of these base liquors? Converted into Chinese dollars, the savings are probably worth several trillion.

And what is the nature of Zhang Yu’s shochu, which was finished after ninety-nine and eighty-one hours? The difference is in the alcohol content. The alcohol content of soju is low, generally only about 20°. It is softer in the mouth, less irritating, fresh and refreshing, but has great staying power.

Many people once thought about asking Liu Qingshan to change his name to a nicer name, just because Zhangyu Shaojiu sounded very much like the kind of loose liquor produced in small wineries, it was like naming a child Gou Sheng.

But he rejected it, because less is more, it will only be soju, which is reflected in the specific degree.
