The formula of Drunk Immortal Flower is not a secret in Tianyan City, so Chen Ping bought the formula at a winery after some inquiries.
More than twenty kinds of spiritual materials are used in the formula, some of which are very common, such as some ordinary spiritual grains.
Some are rarer.
Brewing is normal in Tianyan City, which leads to the entire industry chain of brewing being very complete here, and all spiritual materials are sold, even some rare spiritual materials.
What surprised Chen Ping was that Zuixianhua was not an ordinary wine, and certain techniques were actually used in the brewing process.
That means you need to use spiritual power.
It can be seen that the drunken fairy flower cannot be brewed by ordinary mortals, at least it requires immortal cultivators.
It’s not Fanjiu.
When it comes to spiritual power, the liver will be much slower.
However, this spell is only a short link in the brewing process, and is far less difficult to understand than self-defense or attack spells.
Maybe it won't be too difficult.
After reading this recipe and process, Chen Ping's first feeling was that it could be inserted into the panel.
Can liver.
This feeling is unmistakable.
Chen Ping thought for a while, since he wanted to conquer the Drunken Fairy Flower, it was not a problem to stay in the inn all the time. He couldn't even try to make wine.
Although winemaking is not complicated, it still requires a complete set of processes, which requires a complete set of utensils and wine tanks as support to complete a series of processes such as fermentation, ancient distillation, and purification.
It was obviously impossible to complete this process in the inn.
Why not rent a wine shop in Zuixian Lane?
It can also be used as a place to stay.
Chen Ping returned to the inn, talked to Yu Lingchun, and decided to move to Zuixian Lane and settle down temporarily.
The next day.
Zuixian Lane.
Chen Ping, guided by the rental manager, visited the two idle wine shops in Zuixian Lane.
"Fellow Taoist came at the right time. In Zuixian Lane, winemakers quit every month, and new winemakers move in every month. These two wineries were also rented out just a few days ago, Tao Friends, if it had been a few days later, those two wineries would have been gone." The rental manager is already old, and his body is slightly stooped when he walks.
Before he finished talking to Chen Ping, he saw the monks and servants of a wine shop who were moving, and the steward said hello:
"Fellow Daoist Ling, are you leaving today?"
This person was the big bearded foundation-building monk that Chen Ping saw in the tavern.
The big man with gray beard cursed and said:
"Move, move the hell. I wasted three years and will never make wine again."
When passing by, the bearded man met Chen Ping and guessed that Chen Ping was probably a new winemaker with a dream to settle in Zuixian Lane. He didn't say anything.
I just think of myself three years ago, how high-spirited I was at that time.
I couldn't help but sigh again.
The steward smiled and didn't care about Fellow Daoist Ling's dirty words. He seemed to be used to the complaints of these quitters. He waved his hand and continued to introduce the two vacant wineries to Chen Ping.
The first one is located in the alley.
Excellent location.
The second room is in a secluded corner.
There is no mountain and no dew.
"The previous one is bright and bright. It's bigger. And the location is better and more conspicuous. If Taoist friends not only brew fairy flowers, but also brew other flavors of wine for sale, it will be easier to become famous there."
"Where is this room..."
The manager thought about it for a long time, but he didn't think of the reason for the recommendation. He grinned with a lewd smile:
"It's not without its benefits. The winemaker of the winery next to this one is a widowed fellow Taoist, with that figure, hehehe..."
Chen Ping didn't know what he was laughing at.
What does winemaking have to do with widowhood?
They are all cultivating immortals, so who can tolerate this?
"Then let's take this one." Chen Ping said.
Next is a period of formalities. The rent is not bad. It is rented on an annual basis, 2 per year.
0 medium-grade spiritual stones.
Chen Ping rented it for one year first.
Although this winery is remote, once inside, the space is quite large.
There is a complete wine making assembly line and equipment.
In addition to the space required for brewing, there is also a backyard living area further inside, with several rooms divided into master areas and servant areas.
It is an integration of living and brewing.
...It is located in a corner, the environment is secluded and unassuming, and the space inside is large enough, next door. ——It is indeed the best choice.
This has nothing to do with the widow... Chen Ping glanced next door.
'The only shortcoming is that the brewing assembly line equipment is large and has a large capacity, and a single brew requires too much spiritual material. Mass production is okay, but liver proficiency is not. ,
'We have to build another small production line. ,
Chen Ping found someone to take care of the inside and outside of the wine shop, and then he and Yu Lingchun moved in on the same day.
When Yu Lingchun went to buy new daily necessities, Chen Ping went to the spiritual materials shop. Ask the waiter in the shop to prepare all the medicinal materials needed for the Drunken Fairy Flower. It seems that many people have been there before. The waiter in the shop is familiar with the traffic and moves quickly.
"I dare to ask my friend, these spiritual materials are divided into three grades: lower, middle and upper. The higher they go, the more expensive they are. Which grade do you want, senior? The lower and middle grades can be matched directly, while the upper grade only has dry ingredients and no fresh spiritual materials." The shopkeeper asked kindly.
According to the shopkeeper's explanation, top-grade spiritual materials are hard to come by, and monks in this city are rarely able to collect them, so they are often out of stock.
Occasionally there are some, which are also dry ingredients brought by caravans.
And because the demand for high-quality products is low, the motivation for herbalists is low.
Even if you need fresh ones, you can only find a herbalist and make an agreement with the herbalist in advance.
"As long as it matches the lower class," Chen Ping said.
Now it's a process of gaining proficiency. The grade doesn't matter. When you really need to brew the finished product, it won't be too late to use high-grade spiritual materials.
"Did the shopkeeper just say that fresh high-grade spiritual materials can be reserved in advance?" Chen Ping asked when the shopkeeper ordered the medicine boy to prepare the spiritual materials as needed.
The shopkeeper smelled the order and immediately said:
"That's right, we can order fresh medicinal ingredients in our store."
"Not only spiritual materials, our store also provides all paid tasks related to brewing. The brewing site construction and repair of Taoyou Winery, the sale of high-quality wine, the sale of brewing servants, and the sale of brewing books. Everything you can think of, Taoyou, is here. .”
Is this okay?
Train services?
There happened to be a demand, and Chen Ping's interest increased greatly, so he continued to inquire more.
After some negotiation, all the needs were solved together:
1. Build a super micro-brewing' assembly line.
2. Purchased the amount of low-grade spiritual materials required for 5,000 times of brewing on the super micro assembly line.
3. Ordered 8 kinds of top-grade fresh spiritual materials, 20 plants of each type. The remaining spiritual materials are either spiritual cereals, vines, fruits, dried ones will do.
4. Bought three maids.
They spent 20, 800, 840, and 150 medium-grade spiritual stones respectively.
A total of 1810 souls were received.
The usage of 5,000 micro-assembly lines can basically guarantee that this proficiency level can reach 'Grandmaster' or above. It's just that Chen Ping wants a lot at once, and some of the spiritual materials need to be picked up some time later.
Top-grade spiritual materials are really expensive, and each plant is worth a few pieces of spiritual material. For the same kind of spiritual material, high-grade materials are dozens of times more expensive than low-grade materials, or even more expensive.
Fortunately, the core material needed for wine making is Linggu. Linggu is not fresh and can be mass-produced. Like top-grade Lingmi, it is not outrageously expensive.
Fortunately, fresh spiritual materials are expensive.
But they are all accessories.
Just add a small amount.
As for the three maids, they are all eleven or twelve-year-old girls who have been trained as auxiliary medicine girls in identifying, cultivating, and brewing spiritual materials since childhood. They all have rich experience in using spiritual materials.
It was Chen Ping who carefully selected him from a bunch of drug boys.
Medicine boys also have levels.
They are all the best.
The most inferior ones (poor understanding of medicinal materials, somewhat careless appearance, not clever enough) can even take away one with a few enchanted spirits.
"What are your names?" Chen Ping asked the three maids behind him on the way back to the winery after coming out of the shop.
"Master, the slaves don't have names yet. Master, please give some names to the maids."
The maid at the front was the most cheerful and talkative. She was eleven years old, wearing a red satin skirt and a playful double-ring bun on her head. She had a delicate face, but her skin was rough. She had recorded countless wind and rain blows. trace.
The other two were much shyer.
Most of the time, he didn't dare to raise his head and look at Chen Ping. He only dared to secretly look at the tall back of the new owner when Chen Ping walked forward.
Chen Ping looked at them.
A red satin skirt.
A skirt with green flowers.
One has a small nose and big ears, like a butterfly dog.
"Let's call them Xiaohong and Xiaocui. As for you, wearing a yellow dress, let's call you... Goudan."
"Thank you, Master."*2
"Thank you...Master!!"
All three are skilled in winemaking.
In comparison, Xiaohong's winemaking skills are the most outstanding. In the future, she will engage in some winemaking auxiliary work, such as the production and selection of auxiliary materials, etc., which can save Chen Ping a lot of time.
Not only that, she also has certain attainments in the preparation of body-refining medicinal materials and body-refining assistance.
Among the three, she is the most expensive.
Xiaocui and Goudan are slightly inferior in winemaking, but they each have their own advantages.
Xiaocui is careful and patient, and has good experience in identifying and cultivating spiritual materials. She can help Yu Lingchun and liberate Yu Lingchun.
Goudan has a good sense of smell, and because she looks average, she works extremely hard and works hard without complaint. You can help Yu Lingchun take care of everything at home.
This is a carefully considered choice.
Back at the winery, Yu Lingchun had already returned from shopping. Chen Ping handed the three of them to Yu Lingchun for training, while he went to follow up on the construction of the super micro-brewing site.
Seven days later, the micro assembly line was completed.
Chen Ping couldn't wait to start trying wine.
The wine-making process includes screening, cutting, cooking, fermentation, and wine extraction.
As a modern person, Chen Ping had seen a comparison video of modern winemaking and ancient winemaking on a certain website before, and knew the differences and advantages of each.
And the wine brewing in this world of cultivating immortals is different.
For example, there is no need to use fire for cooking, but can be replaced by spark stones.
It is best to heat it with the spiritual power of the brewer.
Another example is the fermentation process. Whether it is ancient or modern winemaking, this process is very time-consuming, ranging from more than ten days to several years.
But this is not used in the world of cultivating immortals, and magic is used.
After the whole process, Chen Ping completed the micro-brewing process in half an hour.
Of course, this is micro.
The actual brewing takes a lot longer.
As the first process was completed, Chen Ping immediately felt a throbbing feeling.
[Unknown Wine Brewing Technique (Introduction): 1/1000. 】
'My feeling is indeed correct, I can get started. ,
'Previous experience is also correct. Skill-based indicators will progress very quickly. With zero foundation, you can get started smoothly in one go. ,
'Liver, liver explodes her. ,
only.
Why is this called 'unnamed wine'?
Below the name, click to open and there is a text introduction.
It turns out that this wine is not a private brew in recent years.
It is a kind of fine wine that existed in ancient times, a fairy brew brewed by a hidden power.
The finished wine that is truly made to perfection is not only extremely delicious, but also has an excellent effect on spiritual practice. Long-term drinking can even improve monks to a certain extent
constitution.
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is golden juice and jade liquid.
It's just that after the great master passed away, no one could brew this kind of wine again, and all the nameless wines thereafter were imitations of latecomers.
Including nectar flowers.
'It turns out there is such a secret. ,
'I don't know if Fairy Xiyue knows the anecdote behind this, or if she just likes this taste? ,
'I don't know who that powerful person is. Could Fairy Xiyue be related to the powerful person's inheritance? ,
Withdrawing his consciousness, Chen Ping continued to make wine.
…
"Madam, from now on, let me leave the cooking of dinner to my slave. I have learned how to cook a lot of meals. Madam is an immortal master, so you can just use your time to practice." In the dining room, Goudan picked up the food. Live the life of Yu Lingchun.
After these days of familiarity, she has understood the eating habits of the owner and his wife.
Hearing the word 'cultivation', Yu Lingchun glanced at the busy figure of her husband in the brewing room.
...My husband has not given up on me, so why should I give up? At least I can't let my husband see me failing, so I have to continue practicing.
She cheered herself up.
…
The next day.
Chen Ping came back from taking the remaining spiritual materials from the spiritual material shop and saw that the wineries in Zuixian Lane all had their own names. He thought about it and carved three big characters on the plaque at the door of his winery with his sword - —
——Jian Nanchun.
Um.
good.
It's officially opened.
Keep making wine.
"Master, when my maid hears about the opening of other wineries, they will make a big show of it in order to get the name out there. Why doesn't the master do the same?" Xiao Hong has been following Chen Ping to make wine these days, and she is a little curious about Chen Ping's low-key personality.
In her opinion, since she has opened a wine shop, she is naturally the most glorious immortal.
Of course it's something to be proud of.
How can you be proud and not publicize it?
…This maid hasn’t been trained properly yet.
Chen Ping glanced sideways and said:
"When you came to the house, what was the first thing Madam taught you?"
"Be careful not to be deviant. We are the same as everyone in the world." Xiaohong replied fluently.
"What about the second sentence?"
"Quietness will lead to daily progress in cultivation, and movement will cause the body to die and the Tao to disappear."
"What about the third sentence?"
"Born monks are not frivolous, and we should be humble in our own conduct."
"Are you still confused now?"
"No more, Master."
"That's good, go back and copy the above scripture a hundred times, no, a thousand times, so that you can learn something new by reviewing it."
Xiaohong suddenly felt like she was struck by lightning.
evening.
Because Chen Ping's wine shop has been open for several days, but there has never been a grand banquet.
Several neighbors couldn't hold back their curiosity and took the initiative to visit the owner of Jiannanchun.
There were four people in total, all owners of wine shops.
One of them is Shen Jiudi, the owner of Fengquan Winery, which is diagonally opposite Jiannanchun Winery.
The other three are also neighbors, including the pretty widow next door.
"Young Taoist Chen are also here to brew the Drunken Fairy Flower, right?" After some exchanges, Shen Jiudi asked tentatively.
"Who would come to Zuixian Lane if not for Zuixianhua?" Chen Ping smiled.
There is no need to hide this matter, the whole alley is drunk with fairy flowers, and it would seem strange to say otherwise.
"Yes." Shen Jiudi smiled:
"But Fellow Daoist Chen, you have to have expectations. This drunken fairy flower is not easy to brew. No one has succeeded in these years. Look at Fellow Daoist He, there is a spiritual locust tree in front of the winery. It was planted in the first year of winemaking. Now it is as tall as a canopy. .”
Fellow Daoist He blushed:
"This... why are you talking about me? You guys are different?"
This group of monks did not brew the Drunk Immortal Flower, but they were still in a good mood.
Very much like a group hug
A poor student who keeps warm.
"How come I see two locust trees in front of Ling Daoyou's wine shop? There is also a very small one." Chen Ping said.
"Pfft, that's another one planted by fellow Taoist Ling. It was said that it would be a three-year period, and the Drunk Immortal Flower would be brewed in three years. Now two years have passed. Pfft." Shen Jiudi joked.
"Hmph." Fellow Daoist Ling snorted coldly.
It tastes like that.
Chen Ping felt that Fellow Daoist Ling wanted to call him "Thirty Years of Hedong", but he obviously suffered the loss of being uneducated. He moved his mouth a few times and finally just snorted.
Chen Ping held back his laughter.
"Two days later, there was a winemaker's cocktail party in the alley, where we met friends over wine and talked about our experiences. It was convened by Loncin Winery, the original winery of Zui Xianhua. This party is quite good. Every time I participate, I feel like it. There are some new experiences that make people enlightened. Fellow Daoist Chen is new here, so you can go and experience it." Shen Jiudi invited.
"I'm just getting started these days. I haven't learned how to make wine yet, and I don't have any experience, so I won't join in the fun." Chen Ping refused.
Shen Jiudi was stunned for a moment.
When many new winemakers first settle in Zuixian Lane, they can’t wait to get to know the local winemakers.
But this fellow Daoist Chen doesn't seem to like the excitement.
He originally wanted to tell Chen Ping that such a reception would benefit the newlyweds a lot, but he thought that Chen Ping didn't seem to like publicity and didn't even hold an opening banquet.
Then he stopped and continued to invite.
...Hey, that’s not how it’s made.
…How can we make progress by working behind closed doors?
Shen Jiudi secretly felt sorry for Chen Ping.
After coming out of Chen Ping Winery, Shen Jiudi returned to his Fengquan Winery, saw the small figure in the house, and sighed secretly.
The optimistic look on his face disappeared.
Shen Jiudi often looks cheerful and joking outside, but underneath his smile, he is full of exhaustion.
The monks who come to Zuixian Lane are more or less unwilling to endure hardships for humanity, and Shen Jiudi is no exception.
Why.
But this road is so difficult.
He laughed at fellow Taoist, but he had been brewing wine for many years?
"Husband, are you back?" As soon as Shen Jiudi entered the backyard of the wine shop, a thin woman immediately came out to greet him and took off his robe to protect him from the dust.
Shen Jiudi immediately covered up the tired look on his face and said with an optimistic smile:
"You're back, how do you feel today?"
"Much better." The woman smiled happily, but her face couldn't hide the paleness.
"That's good." Shen Jiudi smiled and said:
"You know, a new winemaker has arrived in the past few days, right opposite our winery. This clearly shows that this road is feasible. Today I took out a booklet of winemaking experience. I will return it in two days. There is a cocktail party, and I will ask more about other people's experiences. Soon, we will brew the drunken fairy flower that Fairy Xiyue loves to drink. By then, all I need is Fairy Xiyue to take action, and you will get better immediately. . Then, wouldn’t it be nice for us to travel around the world again?”
The more Shen Jiudi talked, the happier he became, but the woman felt distressed.
I feel sorry for my husband.
Her own physical problems had brought countless troubles to her husband over the years. She had thought about dying, but she was worried that Shen Jiudi wouldn't be able to bear it.
She had persuaded Shen Jiudi to give up countless times. As a cultivator, she had long looked down on life and death. But every time Shen Jiudi heard that she had given up, she would feel even more painful and complain over and over again about her incompetence.
So she didn't dare to mention it again.
The woman sighed softly in her heart, but maintained a smile on her face:
"Well, it all depends on your husband."
"..."
