Laba.

Luo Cheng led 3,000 county soldiers to evacuate Tongding City and arrived at the former site of Xiangping City at the foot of Wulu Mountain in the west of the city. It had become a large construction site, and tens of thousands of civilians were stepping up their construction in the cold wind.

The city has not been built yet, and there are a large and chaotic construction site everywhere, but Luo Cheng didn't care. There were two armies of Luo Yi and Song Laosheng by the Liao River, and there were 3,000 people in Tongding City and Liaobian Fortress in front. Even if there was no city here, there would be no need to worry about the Goguryeo people coming here.

What's more, the Linshuo Palace in Zhuo County had issued an imperial edict. On the first day of the first lunar month of the eighth year of Daye, more than one million troops from the east of the east of Zhuo County were about to send troops. At this time, the Goguryeo people were thinking about how to strengthen the Liaohe defense line, instead of running here to play wildly.

In a corner of the construction site of the new city is Luo Cheng's three thousand county soldiers. The other three thousand county soldiers are still stationed in the border of Liaoze in the south of Tongding City. Luo Cheng did not move, which is also considered to be a monitoring of Yu Wenji. If this bastard does not play according to the routine, then he will know as soon as he leaves the city and Luo Cheng and can take precautions early.

Wei Zheng followed Luo Cheng around and around, and finally suddenly his nose was filled with excitement.

He smelled the wine, and it was a unique wine fragrance.

He looked at Luo Cheng who was leading the way.

In a corner of the camp, a dusty auxiliary flag was hung. In the cold winter, a group of men were busy wearing only thin clothes, and even sweating was seen on their heads.

Fog rises everywhere.

As soon as Luo Cheng came in, he looked around, asked a few questions here, and explained a few words there, which were very familiar. Wei Zheng exclaimed, "I didn't expect that the general would still make wine? Is he preparing for the New Year?"

Luo Cheng looked down at the quality of a bowl of wine and said that it was not good enough. Then he smiled and said, "This wine is not something you brewed for the New Year, but it is sold for you."

"Sell?"

Wei Zheng's eyes widened.

"You should be familiar with this wine. When you smell it, you will know that it is the kind of white wine I gave you before. This wine is strong. In Liaodong, a cold and cold place, it will make you feel comfortable. In the Central Plains, there are not many people who can drink this wine, but when you come to Liaodong, many people like this wine."

"Don't look at my simplicity, but do you know how popular our wine is now? Needless to say, the First Army and the Second Army have booked a lot, and even the merchants in Huaiyuan City are lined up. Especially those Hu people love our wine more, even more than tea."

Wei Zheng frowned and said, "But I'm afraid this is inappropriate to sell it with military rations?"

Luo Cheng smiled and said, "I'm not using military rations to make wine. Look at what these are?"

Wei Zheng lowered his head and looked at the wine lees spread on the ground. They were not glutinous rice or wheat grains. "Is this sorghum?"

"That's right, this is sorghum. We bought sorghum from Huaiyuan. This sorghum is just for feeding animals and is very cheap. We bought sorghum from Huaiyuan merchants, and then brought it here to make wine. The sorghum turned into clear white wine and sold it again. Do you know how much profit it will be?"

Wei Zheng shook his head.

"If it is a normal wine brewing, one pound of glutinous rice can produce one and a half pounds of wine, this is a good wine. If it is sold, one pound of glutinous rice can produce two or even two and a half pounds of wine. If it is a bad wine sold in the store, add some water to a pound of rice, it can actually produce three or four pounds of wine."

Glutinous rice is more expensive than ordinary rice, but the price of wine is more expensive than rice, so brewing wine is actually high-interest. Not to mention those well-known good wines, such as Xinfeng wine, the world's famous wines, can even be sold for ten thousand dollars, and the best glutinous rice is only a few dozen yuan a bucket.

"The grain in the border areas is more expensive. The sorghum that feeds animals can only cost four or five cents in the Central Plains, but in Huaiyuan here, it can be sold for one or twenty cents. I harvest sorghum for twenty cents, and the merchants also helped me deliver it from Huaiyuan here. Then I use this sorghum to make white wine. I have a unique secret recipe to make wine. One pound of sorghum can produce eight taels of wine."

Wei Zheng felt that the sorghum wine produced was much lower than the water wine, but it was not bad to produce half a kilogram of sorghum. The key is the price, and the profit is determined by how much the price is sold.

"Try it." Luo Cheng poured out a small bowl of wine from a small jar and handed it to Wei Zheng.

Wei Zheng, who is good at wine, is also a master of winemaking. The Wei family’s home brewing is very good. He took the bowl and drank it. The wine is fragrant and powerful.

"It seems to have a slightly worse taste than the wine you gave me before, and it's even more vigorous." Wei Zheng said.

"It's true that it's an old winemaker. This white wine has a characteristic, which is that it has to survive after brewing. The longer it is stored, the more mellow the taste, the better the taste. The new wine has a worse taste."

"It's a little bit worse, but drinking this liquor this day will taste good." Wei Zheng licked his lips, his face slightly red. "How much does this liquor cost?"

"Four hundred wine."

"Big fight and small fight?" Wei Zheng asked.

There are big fights and small fights in the fights, one fights and three fights in the fights.

"Wine is, of course, it's a small dou. It's a practice, not a big dou for rice and grain."

Wei Zheng's face turned even redder now. A small dou of wine actually sold for 400 yuan?

Luo Cheng smiled and said that although wine is made of grain, it has never been a cheap thing. A big bucket of Sui Dynasty was equivalent to 6,000 milliliters in later generations, and a small bucket of 2,000 milliliters.

A small dou of white wine is actually two kilograms, and Luo Cheng sold it for 400 yuan. In fact, he priced at one kilogram of one kilogram of one kilogram of one kilogram of one kilogram of one kilogram of one kilogram of one kilogram of one kilogram of one kilogram, but in fact, it can only be considered a medium- and low-end liquor in later generations.

But Wei Zheng didn't count that way. Luo Cheng bought sorghum for only 20 cents, but it was still a big deal, but it sold for 400 cents, which was equivalent to 60 times more.

No wonder Luo Cheng dared to make wine in the military camp. The profit of 60 times is comparable to selling weapons.

"How much wine does it take in a day?" Wei Zheng asked again.

"It's only a few hundred dollars a day."

How many hundred dou? Wei Zheng quickly calculated in his mind that a dou of four hundred coins, a dou of one hundred dollars means 40,000 coins, and a few hundred dollars, wouldn’t that be more than 100,000 coins?

As for the cost, it can almost be ignored.

"The main reason is that the wine koji is quite troublesome. I use my homemade secret wine koji. I used to carry a batch, but the amount was too small. Now I purchase raw materials to make it, but it still cannot keep up with the demand, which greatly limits the wine production in our winery." Luo Cheng felt a little regretful.

He now has sufficient manpower and sufficient sorghum supply. If the wine koji could not keep up, let alone hundreds of dollars a day, it would be a problem for a thousand dollars a day.

Wei Zheng was more concerned about another issue.

Luo Cheng made wine in the military camp or used auxiliary soldiers to make wine. So who does the money he earned?

"The income from brewing is naturally considered to be from our county's small military treasury. My brothers followed me to the cold and cold place by the Liao River. If you have a home, you have to be outside for the New Year. It's very hard. I have to seek some benefits for everyone, buy more clothes to protect the cold and winter, give them some rewards, and let them send some money to their wives and parents at home for the New Year."

Wei Zheng looked at Luo Cheng and felt that this man was too young, but sometimes what he was thinking about made him admired. Most people have this secret method to make wine, and it is definitely his own big deal to make money. It would be good to give some soup to the soldiers. But Luo Cheng made money, but he wanted to improve the food and treatment of the soldiers under his command, buy everyone's clothes, quilts, shoes and socks for the winter, and give them rewards and ask them to send money home.

"The First Army and the Second Army are here to buy our wine, and will they know about it?"

Wei Zheng directly called this wine our wine.

"Of course I know this, but we haven't gone too far in doing this. Who doesn't do some small business? After all, there are so many brothers under my command, so I have to live a life." Luo Cheng smiled and told Wei Zheng that Luo Yi and Song Laosheng knew that he sold wine here, and they were still ordering high-end liquor from him.

"This wine is of high and low quality?"

"Of course there are some differences. This wine is not the same when brewing wine. The wine is the most pounding and the taste is the worst. The wine tail is the weakest and the taste is slightly inferior. The wine is the wine produced by Erguotou, which has the purest and not mixed. So, we divided the wine into grades. Erguotou wine sells four hundred Dou wine, and then mixed the wine and the tail wine to neutralize the taste, and then sold three hundred Dou wine. In addition, we purified and filtered the Erguotou wine, and then stored it through the accumulation and cellar, and then made some exquisite packaging of the higher grades. So we sold Dou wine for 500 yuan, and there was a more luxurious gift version. It costs 200 yuan to pack a jar. I sold Dou wine for a thousand yuan."

Wei Zheng was impressed and said, "It's a pity that you don't go to be a businessman."

"How can you be an official as a businessman?" Luo Cheng smiled.

Luo Cheng asked Huaiyuan merchants to order a batch of gift boxes, such as the wine he gave to Luo Yi, Song Laosheng, Li Jing and others, which was a limited edition priced at 10 yuan for Doujiu. A jar happened to be a Doujiu. The wine jars were made of high-quality white porcelain bottles made in Xingjiao, Hebei. There was sandalwood on the outside to make a gift box. Someone wrote poems on the box, and a set of white porcelain wine glasses were also included, which was very stylish.

Anyway, the old guys such as Luo Yi, Li Jing and Song were very satisfied after receiving the wine. They turned a blind eye to Luo Cheng’s winemaking and gave the green light.

They even went to Luo Cheng to purchase a large amount of money. For example, Song Laosheng got a discount on discount from Luo Cheng and bought a lot of high-end liquor worth 500 yuan a dou. In addition to some of them being given to others, most of them were sold to the Khitans and Xi people in the north and made a lot of money. Luo Cheng knew very well, but he didn't say it out at all. He gave as much as he wanted.

"In addition to capital, we also have a winery in the Liaobian Fortress, which makes wine day and night, and now we have earned 20,000 to 30,000 yuan."

The daily income of wine production is 1,000 yuan, but it is a real profitable transaction.

"The Chinese New Year is coming soon. Each of our county soldiers has to give a reward of 6,000 jin." Luo Cheng smiled. He planned to give a minimum of jin of jin per person, and the officers would increase according to their grades. After this calculation, it would be at least jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of jin of

"It's really like money coming in like flowing water, and it's like flowing water going out. The general doesn't love money, but loves soldiers like sons." Wei Zheng said.

"It's all brothers who follow me, this is a must."

Wei Zheng felt that Luo Chengzhen was a person who could accomplish great things.

"Old Wei, I'm bringing you here today. The main reason is to give you the business of this stall. The winery store is very business-related, and it also affects the welfare of our county soldiers for 10,000 or 20,000 brothers. So it's very important. I have many powerful generals under my command, but if you say that you can't get the best of these things, I'd better leave it to you."

Wei Zheng was not polite either, "Don't worry, General, I will definitely take care of it and make sure the accounts are clear."

Ximen Junyi made a big step in.

"Entertainment father, Dou Jiande is back."
