Li Shui and Li Xin chatted while drinking tea.
Li Shui turned his head and looked out the door from time to time.
Li Xin glanced at Li Xin and complained: "Brother, I'm not telling you, the time you gave Lu Yiding is really too short."
"I remember when you started researching the fairy wine, it didn't take five days to make it."
Li Shui took a sip of tea and said, "Can this be the same? At that time, I was the only one making fairy wine in the world."
"Both the utensils and the recipes have never been used before, so it is a little more complicated and naturally takes longer."
"Now that Xianjiu has been developed for so long, I don't know how many people are studying it privately."
"If it weren't for patent protection, the streets would have been filled with workshops making fairy wine."
Li Xin nodded after listening and said, "Then you still plan to make low-alcohol wine, are you not afraid of imitation by those workshops?"
Li Shui smiled and said, "Our Shangjun Villa has been making fairy wine for many years, and the brewing technology is very mature, which is not comparable to that of ordinary workshops."
"Even if someone can do it, it will only have its form but not its taste."
While the two were talking, the craftsman came to report, and Lu Yi came.
Li Shui looked at Li Xin with a smile, and then said to the craftsman: "Let him come in."
After Lu Yi came in, he immediately knelt on the ground and whispered to Li Shui: "My lord, fortunately, I have fulfilled my duty. The low-alcohol wine has been brewed."
After speaking, Lu Yi put a pot of brewed low-alcohol wine on the table.
Li Xin stood up excitedly and said, "Is this wine that is easy to drink and not easy to get drunk?"
Lu Yi replied: "Sir, this wine is not as strong as the fairy wine, and it is more flavorful than the wine brewed at home."
Li Xin poured a glass, smelled it, and said, "It's not as strong as the fairy wine, but it's still full of wine flavor."
Li Xin handed the wine glass to Lu Yi and said, "Although it doesn't smell as strong as the fairy wine, I don't know if there will be any reaction after drinking it."
"If this wine makes you drunk easily, your Majesty will summon me later, and things will go wrong."
"You have a drink first, and I'll see how you react."
Lu Yi took the wine glass and said to Li Xin: "Sir, according to the rules of Shang Jun's Courtyard, our servants are not allowed to drink during the day, let alone while working."
After speaking, he looked at Li Shui doubtfully.
Li Shui nodded and said, "Since General Li asked you to drink it, you can drink it."
In fact, even if Li Xin didn't say anything, Li Shui would let Lu Yi drink first.
Li Shui cherished his life. If something was put in the drink, it would be an advantage to those villains.
Lu Yi composed himself and drank the wine in one gulp.
Li Xin asked hurriedly: "How is it? Do you feel dizzy?"
Lu Yi shook his head and said, "Sir, this wine is not as strong as the fairy wine. You can drink more."
"Actually, this wine was made yesterday."
Li Xin wondered: "Then why did you just send it here today?"
Lu Yi said: "After the wine was brewed, I drank a glass without feeling drunk."
"I just want to drink a few more drinks to see how much I can get drunk."
Li Shui asked: "What's the result?"
Lu Yi replied: "Although the young man knows a little about the wine-making process, his drinking capacity is ordinary, so he should be able to represent most people."
"If you just drink this wine, you will start to feel dizzy after just one bottle."
"If you eat something and drink alcohol at the same time, you will feel dizzy after two cups."
"Master Li has a good drinking capacity. It doesn't hurt to have a few more drinks in the future."
Li Xin looked at the jug happily and said, "It takes two jugs to make you dizzy. It's very good. In the past, one person would get drunk after one cup of fairy wine, but now it only takes two jugs for one person to get drunk."
"The sales volume of this wine will definitely increase greatly."
Li Shui also nodded and said: "Unless they are dignitaries, ordinary people rarely drink alcohol regularly. The majority are ordinary drinkers."
Seeing that Lu Yi was fine, Li Xin poured a drink for Li Shui and himself.
Li Xin smelled it first. The aroma of the wine was strong but not strong, and it smelled really comfortable.
Then I drank it in one sip and felt warm in my stomach, feeling very good.
Although the fairy wine is good, if you drink it after one cup, you will vomit it out even if you eat something, which is very addictive.
Nowadays, this low-alcohol wine perfectly solves this problem. You can chat while eating without delaying anything.
Li Shui picked up the wine glass and smelled it. It was true that the aroma of the wine was very strong. When he put it in his mouth, it was not as pungent as the fairy wine. When he swallowed it, he felt a warm feeling in his stomach.
But this wine just smells stronger and tastes a little different from the wine I drank in my previous life.
Lu Yi saw Li Shui frowning after drinking, and suddenly became very nervous.
Lu Yi couldn't help but ask: "Sir, is there anything wrong?"
Li Xin also looked at Li Shui in confusion.
Li Shui shook his head first, and then nodded.
Seeing Li Shui nodding, Lu Yi became even more nervous.
Li Shui said slowly: "This wine smells very strong, but when you taste it, there is not much left."
Lu Yi stared and exclaimed: "The banished immortal is indeed a banished immortal. I just tasted a cup and found the problem."
Li Shui closed his eyes slightly and continued: "When you drink this wine, the brewing technology is too strong, and the wine has very little flavor."
"And this flavor is the soul of the wine. If it is missing, it will be greatly compromised."
Lu Yi thought about it thoughtfully, and admired Li Shui even more in his heart.
Even though Li Shui was not involved in the process of brewing low-alcohol wine, he pointed out the problem after just tasting a glass of wine.
Pointed out the most critical parts to the point.
Lu Yi thought to himself, if it weren't for adults, no one might be able to point out this kind of problem, and it seems that no one can do it at the moment.
After Li Xin frowned and listened to Li Shui's words, he was even more puzzled. What was so charming about it?
Li Xin didn't understand what Li Shui was talking about at all.
Li Xin said: "Brother Huai, this wine making is a technical job. Without the craftsmanship, this wine cannot be made."
"Since you can taste the craftsmanship of brewing, it means that this wine is real wine and not a fake fake."
Li Shui smiled and said nothing.
Li Xin added: "As for what you said about the charm or lack of charm, do people who drink wine care about this?"
"I think this is just a matter of nitpicking."
"Whether there is any flavor in the wine depends on who says it. Brother Huai, if you say it does, then it does. I'll see who dares to say it doesn't."
Li Shui smiled and said, "Brother Li is a man in the army. People who are marching and fighting will naturally not care about these details when they drink."
"But the sales of this wine are not just for soldiers, but ordinary people."
"There are also some literati who have read books. These people are not drinking, but tasting wine. They like the feelings and associations after tasting wine the most."
"If they see the problem, it will be a loss of reputation."
"It's better that we solve all the problems. Although it is low-alcohol wine, it can meet the needs of different groups of people, so that we can develop the low-alcohol wine market."
After hearing this, Li Xin nodded in understanding and said, "If that's the case, will the public sale be postponed again?"
Li Shui looked at Lu Yi with a smile and said, "It depends on Lu Yi's progress."
