On the 18th day of the fifth month of the eighth year of Xuan Li, Fu Daguan and Fu Xiaoguan returned to Linjiang after inspecting the landowner's territory.

During this trip, Fu Xiaoguan had a preliminary understanding of the property of his family, a large landowner, and produced the first product with his own brand in the world - Xishan Qiongjiang. By the way, he also took in a younger brother Bai Yulian. He made preliminary plans for the future of Xishan Villa, and the prototype of a base integrating R&D and production gradually took shape in his mind.

The next step is to understand the world. Of course, the first thing is to understand Linjiang. So far, he has never walked around the streets of Linjiang.

He didn't like shopping before, but he is happy now because it is really free.

So after exercising the next day and having breakfast, he took Bai Yulian and Chunxiu out in the carriage, and Bai Yulian doubled as his coachman.

"Xiu'er, I need to make some glass bottles, do you know the place?"

"Glass? I have never heard of it, but there is glass."

"Oh, glass will do too."

"There's one over there in Xifang. Let's go take a look now?"

Fu Xiaoguan searched his memory and found that Xifang was a market in a remote location. "Go to Yu Fu Ji first."

"Is there any pottery in Xifang?"

"Yes."

"Well, okay."

Chunxiu didn't know what the young master wanted these utensils for. Glaze was very expensive, and only the master in Fu's house had a set of glazed wine sets, which could not be used by non-distinguished guests.

As for pottery, it is cheap and is used by every household.

Fu Xiaoguan didn't ask any more questions, he looked out the car window.

There are rows of houses, simple and elegant courtyards, bluestone streets, and occasionally exquisite pavilions.

A window was opened on the second floor of a certain house. A woman stuck her head out and looked down. The bamboo pole holding up the window did not fall down.

The shops facing the street have already opened their doors, and various flags on the shops are fluttering in the morning breeze. The vendors were pushing wheelbarrows or jumping on burdens and shouting all the way.

Linjiang City has already woken up.

Looking like this, half an hour later, the carriage arrived in front of Yu Fuji's door.

This street is called Shibali Lane. It is not the busiest street in Linjiang City, but the location is already good. If we go by the previous life, this is considered a secondary port.

Fu Xiaoguan looked around. Although it existed in his memory, what he saw with his own eyes was much more real.

The door of Yu Fu Ji has also been opened, but there are not many customers at the door - after all, it sells wine, and there must not be many people drinking this early in the morning.

Cai Xi, the old shopkeeper of Yu Fu Ji, was frowning at an account book, then sighed and shook his head.

The sales of Yu Fu Ji have been deteriorating over the years, and April was even more bleak. The total monthly sales were 120 kilograms, 600 cash, and a profit of 120 cash... Although the property here was purchased by the lady back then, even if Leaving aside the rent and expenses, it is already a loss.

He closed the account book and thought about a solution. Although the uncle didn't care about the management of this place, the shop was left to the young master by the young lady. Now that it was like this, he felt very guilty.

Yu Fuji only has one kind of wine, which is the most common wine produced by Xishan Winery. It doesn’t even have a name.

The varieties are single and ordinary, and there is no competitiveness at all. If it were not for the regular customers, I would have been unable to make ends meet.

The business of Qi's wine shop across the street was not good before, but since Qi Yuanming, the young boss of Qi's family, obtained a kind of wine called Yaochun, the business of Qi's wine shop has become increasingly prosperous.

He went to buy Yaochun wine. It was much worse than Tianxiang in the capital, but much better than his own wine. However, he had not found out the origin of this wine, so he was helpless.

With a long sigh, he raised his head and saw the young master and two people walking in.

This made him a little surprised, and he even wiped his old eyes. He saw that he was indeed right, it was really the young master's family.

Cai Xi hurriedly greeted him, and Fu Xiaoguan saluted him respectfully. Cai Xi was frightened and hurriedly returned the salute, "Young master, I have broken this old slave!"

Cai Xi is Xu Yunqing's servant. When Xu Yunqing married Senior Official Fu, he followed and became a servant of the Fu family, and naturally a servant of the Shaodong family.

"Lao Cai should receive this gift. Since my mother passed away, Cai Lao will take care of Yu Fu Ji. Even if there is no credit, there is still hard work, so there is no need to panic."

On the contrary, Cai Xi was frightened: "The young man is incompetent and has not done well in the business left by the young lady. Please punish me, young master!"

Fu Xiaoguan waved his hand, "This is not your problem, this is my problem."

As he spoke, Fu Xiaoguan looked around. The shop was very big, but the furnishings were very simple.

There were three Eight Immortals tables in the middle, wine vats lined up on three sides against the wall, an abacus and several wine cups on the counter...and then nothing.

Fu Xiaoguan touched his nose and smiled dumbly. This really wasn't Cai Xi's problem.

"Shopkeeper Cai, ask two people to bring in the wine in my carriage."

The carriage contained two jars of wine, weighing one hundred and eighty kilograms. One of the jars was a mixture of wheat and sorghum distilled, with an alcohol content of about 30 degrees.

The other jar is a wine distilled from rice, with a concentration of about 40 degrees.

Compared with the wine I drank at Xishan Courtyard, the alcohol content was a little lower, but the alcohol consumption rate was 20% higher.

That is, the cost is about one tael of wine and seven cents.

The two jars of wine were placed on the table. Fu Xiaoguan sat down casually and said to Cai Xi, "Try it, shopkeeper Cai."

Cai Xi took the wine spoon and cup, opened the lid of one of the jars of wine, and the aroma of wine hit his face. He was stunned for a moment, sniffed hard, and his old eyes lit up, "Good wine!"

He opened the jar of 30 degrees, which was at least ten degrees higher than the original wine.

He carefully took a spoonful, poured a little into the cup, put it to his nose again and smelled it, drank it in one gulp, thought about it for a moment, turned to the waiter behind him and said: "Go get the Yaoxiang wine. ”

Then he opened another jar of wine, and he was immediately surprised by the richer aroma of the wine. This was... the added fragrance!

When he was in Shangjing, he worked with the lady and drank Tianxiang more than once.

He looked at the young master’s family in confusion. Could it be that the Hu family passed on the secret recipe for adding incense to the young master?

He takes the wine and tastes it again... just like adding fragrance!

"Add fragrance?"

Fu Xiaoguan shook his head.

"Where does this wine come from?"

"A few days ago, I went to Xishan Courtyard with my father, looked at the wine shop, and then I came up with this thing."

Fu Xiaoguan downplayed it, but Cai Xi found it hard to believe it.

Leaving aside the absurdity of the young master’s actions, he has been immersed in wine for decades and naturally knows the history of its development. It would not be surprising if the young master had a secret recipe for adding fragrant wine, but if the young master created it himself... this would be an incredible skill.

Among the wines on the market, Tianxiang is the best, but the output of Tianxiang is extremely low. Even in the capital, only a few dignitaries can drink it, let alone outside the capital, it is not sold at all.

It is no longer measured in money, but a status symbol.

If the young master really creates this secret recipe, it will break the myth of adding incense, and it will be able to enter the homes of ordinary people... What a huge market this is!

The waiter brought Yaochun wine, and Cai Xi placed three wine utensils.

Pour Yaochun into one cup, pour 30% wine into one cup, and pour 40% wine into another cup.

"This wine is run by the Qi family across the street and is called Yaochun. It sells for one to two and fifteen cents. The young master will taste it."

Fu Xiaoguan picked up the wine glass, smelled it, then put it down and said, "This wine can be at most twenty degrees."

"...What does twenty degrees mean?"

"It is the strength of the wine. We have to set a standard. In the future, our wine will be marked with the strength. For example, this jar is 32 degrees, and this jar is 42 degrees."

"How to determine this...?"

"Drink, it depends on the taste. Well, just use the 42-degree jar as the criterion. Stronger wine has a higher degree."

Bai Yulian's eyes lit up, this method is OK, then the drink in Xishan Courtyard should be fifty degrees.

Cai Xi thought for a moment and came to an understanding, but he did not realize the huge impact this standard would have on subsequent alcoholic beverages.

He was tasting wine at the moment, starting from Yaochun, drank three glasses and nodded.

The 32-degree wine far surpasses Yaochun, let alone another wine that is comparable to Tianxiang.

Perhaps it was because of the wine that he was in a very excited mood, and his old face was flushed at the moment, "Master, with these two kinds of wine, Yu Fu Ji will definitely be famous all over the world!"

He didn't say it was famous in Linjiang, because if 42-degree wine was mass-produced, it would definitely be famous all over the world.

"May I ask, Master, what is the output of these two wines?"

"The new winery is still under construction, but even if it is built, the output of this wine will not be high. I estimate that one day... this 42-degree wine will only weigh about thirty kilograms. This Those growing at 32 degrees Celsius will weigh a little more, probably around 70 to 80 pounds."

The output was very low. Cai Xi was slightly disappointed, and then asked: "How much does the young master charge for this wine?"

"This kind," Fu Xiaoguan pointed to the thirty-two-degree altar, "is called Xishan Xiangquan, and this kind is called Xishan Tianchun. Xiangquan wine is priced at one to two fifty cents, while Tianchun is priced at ...one to two to three hundred articles."

Bai Yulian was shocked and looked at Fu Xiaoguan, you are robbing money!

He knows these two kinds of wine. The cost of Xiangquan is only seven coins, and the cost of Tianchun is only nine coins. How many times the profit is this!

Cai Xi was also surprised, this... "Is it too expensive?"

Fu Xiaoguan smiled and said, "Tell me, is this Xiangquan wine available on the market?"

Cai Xi shook his head, this really didn’t happen.

"You said that since Tianchun can compete with Tianxiang, can Tianxiang be purchased on the market?"

Cai Xi shook his head again.

"So, we are an exclusive operation. We can sell as much as we want, and there is a limit when selling. I have to tell you this in advance. Each person can buy up to five taels of fragrant spring per day. Tian Chun, on the other hand, can only buy three taels at most. This is very important, so you must remember it.”

How can you open a shop and not do business?

Cai Xi couldn't figure it out, and Bai Yulian and Chunxiu couldn't figure it out either. But Fu Xiaoguan didn't explain it, he just emphasized it once and just do as he said.

"As for the time of sale, I will let you know. The news can be released, but no one is allowed to taste it."
