Deep in Peach Blossoms

Chapter 57: The Art of Winemaking

Views:

A few days after the Lantern Festival, the people sent by Wang Songlin arrived as scheduled. Bai Ling is about to officially start his brewing work. And after a period of time playing, Bai Ling and Li He were almost in the vicinity of the imperial capital, and there were not many people visiting. Now, it's time to calm down.

In the imperial capital, under the banner of Longfeng Restaurant, there is a wine cellar specially used for wine making.

Wang Songlin shook his fan, as if very happy. The whole person is smiling, and the spring breeze is blowing willows. Looking at his appearance, Bai Ling knew it without asking. It must be during the Lantern Festival, the business of the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant is booming, which made him earn a lot of money.

It's no wonder, when Bai Ling glanced at the menu at the beginning, every dish was frighteningly expensive. It is simply not affordable for ordinary people. However, there are so many rich people who like to go to Longfeng Restaurant. It was as if a meal in Longfeng Restaurant was worth eating out for ten years. Moreover, you have to show off to your relatives and friends before you can feel at ease.

With such a large number of loyal fans of Longfeng Restaurant, it is difficult for Wang Songlin not to make money. Moreover, he is not limited to the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant. After all, the world of the rich is far from the world of ordinary people...

Wang Songlin pointed to all the tools and materials for wine making around him, and said with a soft smile, "Xiaobai, you can use the tools and materials here as you like. If there are any Yes, and if you lack any materials, you can just tell me, and I will send someone to find them for you.”

After listening to Wang Songlin's words, Bai Ling smiled. To be honest, this winemaking place is infinitely better than his previous environment in Fengshou Town. Even so, he can produce extremely delicate wine. Now here, I am afraid that the brewed wine is even better than the ones brewed before.

The key point is that the materials that Wang Songlin sent over to make wine are all fresh and exquisite. It seems that all of them should be left after careful selection.

It's just...

Bai Ling looked at the materials in front of him with some pity... ..

Green plum, red bayberry, mulberry, sweet-scented osmanthus... These materials are not what should be available in this season, but now they appear very vividly in front of Bai Ling, and they are of excellent quality. It seems that this Wang Songlin is really good at the purchase channels of ingredients. However, it would be even better if he could have peach blossoms and grapes, which he is best at.

Regarding this, Bai Ling did not hide it from Wang Songlin, but directly said to Wang Songlin: "Although the climate around the imperial capital is like spring and warm like summer. But Boss Wang can make these things happen at this time. The items are delivered to me, and all of them are of extraordinary quality. Presumably, Boss Wang’s purchase channels for ingredients must have something special about him?”

Hearing Bai Ling's praise, Wang Songlin didn't hide much: "Indeed, the purchase channels for these ingredients are handled by special personnel. They can get any item in any season throughout the year."

"Oh?" Bai Ling immediately became interested and said, "I don't know, can Boss Wang get me a lot of peach blossoms, peaches, and grapes?"

Hearing Bai Ling's words, Wang Songlin smiled confidently and said, "Of course! As I said, I may get any kind of thing throughout the year. But I don't know, Xiaobai, what do you want to use it for?" ?”

Bai Ling couldn't help laughing and said: "Of course I want to use it to make wine, so that Boss Wang's business will become more prosperous!"

"Hahahaha, good!!" Wang Songlin was in a happy mood, and smiled happily: "Just wait a few days, and I'll send someone to start preparing right away!"

Bai Ling nodded and said, "Well, if that's the case, there will be Boss Lao Wang!"

"Hahaha, small matter, small matter!" As he spoke, Wang Songlin waved his fan, hummed a little tune, and swaggered away.

With that appearance, if people who don't know him saw it, they might think it was the romantic young master of that rich family. It would never occur to him that this person is actually the richest man in the imperial capital who now single-handedly runs the Dragon Phoenix Restaurant and owns countless assets. The contrast is astounding.

...

After Wang Songlin left, Bai Ling also started his work immediately. Fortunately, Wang Songlin is also very considerate and considerate, leaving a lot of manpower for him, who can be used by him. Otherwise, cleaning materials and pouring water, this, that, etc., would kill Bai Ling.

But even so, at the end of the day, Bai Ling was exhausted.

It's not because of anything else, but because Wang Songlin's demand is too great. If you don't spend more time, I'm afraid you can't do it at all.

In the evening, when dusk was approaching, Bai Ling finally brewed the first batch of fruit wine and flower wine, and sealed the altar. The rest is to wait for time, let it slowly ferment, and then proceed to the next step. After meticulously pasting the time and labels on each wine jar, Bai Ling's work for the day can finally come to an end.

"Hmm~~" Bai Ling stretched, rubbed his shoulders and waist and said, "Okay, let's continue with the rest tomorrow."

"I'm gone in the past, Yangliu Yiyi~~" Humming the little song that I secretly learned at the flower god song and dance that day. Bai Ling walked slowly towards his Shangmei Garden.

After returning home, Li He had already prepared sumptuous dishes, waiting for Bai Ling to come back.

It's just that Li He's eye sockets are a little sunken, and he's in a daze, as if he's not in a good state. In the past, Li He would have come out to meet Bai Ling very happily, and then greeted him with a smile. But today, Li He seemed to be in a trance, his eyes wandering.

"What's the matter with you, Ah He?" Bai Ling asked him while pawing the rice.

Li He smiled at Bai Ling and said, "It's okay, maybe it's because I've been too indulgent these few days, so I haven't recovered for a while..."

Li He's words made Bai Ling's ears turn red while he was grilling rice. Even the chopsticks that were cooking the rice couldn't help but pause slightly. Uh... Bai Ling felt a little aggrieved for no reason... In fact, he really didn't do anything, except last time during the Lantern Festival, he took the initiative to tease Li He and kissed him on purpose. The rest of the time, it was Li He who made the first move...

But for some reason, Bai Ling was still inexplicably scared...

After all, Li He suffers from kidney deficiency, and that's because of his relationship... Even if it is related, he is still responsible...

Bai Ling coughed dryly and said, "Cough cough er... If this is the case, then Ah He, you should have a good rest for a few days~ Don't be fussy at night, so as not to make your kidney deficiency worse..."

Li He nodded and didn't say anything more.

...

The next day, Bai Ling went out to work as usual. And Wang Songlin was also very quick. In just one night, he found peach blossoms and grapes for Bai Ling to look at, so that Bai Ling could brew his best peach blossom wine and wine with peace of mind.

After dusk, Bai Ling checked every sealed wine jar as usual. After confirming that there are no problems, mark the time on it, and affix a seal and label. It can be more convenient and quicker when you find it in the future.

When he got home, Li He was still a little sluggish. Moreover, that appearance was even worse than yesterday. This also made Bai Ling feel a little worried.

"Ahe, how are you? Are you okay?" Bai Ling touched Li He's forehead with concern, to see if he had a fever or something. However, Li He looked normal. Except for a little bit of confusion, there is basically no serious problem.

And Li He waved his hands with a smile, not to worry Bai Ling, and said, "It's okay, I'll be fine after two days of rest..."

Having said that, Li He's bloodless, extremely pale lips still made Bai Ling feel a little worried.

"Brother Li He, are you really okay? Do you want me to accompany you to see a doctor?"

Li He shook his head and said, "It really doesn't matter, it's just that I've been inexplicably lethargic for the past two days... Xiaobai, don't worry..."

"Okay..." Bai Ling nodded and said, "Brother Li He, if you have any discomfort, you must remember to tell me."

"Well, don't worry!"

At night, Bai Ling slept next to Li He, and was a little afraid to reach out to hug him. I was afraid that if I teased Li He again, he would be unable to restrain himself.

On the third day, Bai Ling was worried and wanted to take Li He to the street to see a doctor, but Li He refused. Finally, under Li He's smiling gaze, he slowly walked out and went to work.

Because she was really worried about Li He, Bai Ling dismissed the helpers early today and hurried back home. Along the way, Bai Ling was always inexplicably uncomfortable. The pace under the feet of the whole person is also moving fast.
