Start by traveling through the Widow's Village

Mo Wentian distributed the distilled wine to everyone, Xiao Yuan also tasted it, felt good, a little bit of high wine, but the taste is still a little worse, this is no way, after all, it is not his own wine, just the product of distillation and purification with ordinary wine on the market.

But where did Sun Qijie and the three drink distilled spirits? Like Mo Wentian before, he was immediately attracted.

"When it's such a good wine, with this thing, the rest of the drink is rubbish!" Zhou Wei tasted it, his eyes immediately lit up, and he said with a little excitement.

He has practiced martial arts since he was a child, and his family has not forbidden him to drink, so he has drunk a lot of alcohol, but he has never drunk such a strong alcohol.

However, Sun Qijie frowned slightly and said: "Although this wine is good, the literati are afraid that they are not used to drinking it, it is too strong!"

Xiao Yuan smiled slightly and said, "No drink can satisfy everyone's requirements at the same time, so this requires our publicity!" "

Oh? I want to hear about it! Sun Qijie looked at Xiao Yuan and asked with great interest.

"Do you think we will hold an event on the day of the opening to get free drinking and money, will anyone attend?" Xiao Yuan said with a smile.

"Huh?" Everyone looked at Xiao Yuan in surprise.

Because if you use this way to make publicity, then in terms of the population of Kyoto, there will be no pants left to lose you.

"Don't worry, let's open the door to do business, in order to make money, so if you want to participate in our activities, you must buy qualifications, it is not expensive, you can participate in ten taels of silver!" The name of the event is the drinking competition, when the time comes, in front of our store in front of the public competition, ten people in a group, people start the competition, who is the first to drink a fight, and can go to the store counter to write their name, even if they win, the winner will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver! In this way, how many people will participate? Xiao Yuan said with a smile.

When everyone heard this, they fell into thought, only Peng Fei was a little hesitant and asked: "Xiao Gongzi, I admit that your wine is very strong, but there are many people who are good at drinking in Beijing, if someone can really finish a bucket and write their name, do we also have to pay?"

"Of course, since there are words first, why not pay for them?" I rather hope that there will be a few more such people, and when the time comes, we will count the money in public and hand it over to them, and we must not do anything! Xiao Yuan nodded with a smile and replied.

"Oh? Thousands of dollars to buy horse bones? Sun Qijie's eyes lit up, and he seemed to sense Xiao Yuan's intentions, and said with a smile: "Xiao Gongzi wants to gain everyone's trust?" But while the integrity of the merchant is important, is it worth spending so much? "

Hahahaha..." Xiao Yuan laughed loudly when he heard this, causing everyone to be surprised.

"Sun Gongzi calculates well? Where did we lose money? Xiao Yuan chuckled and said: "The qualification fee for participation is ten taels per person, a group of ten people, we can get a hundred taels of tattooed silver with this money alone, even if we take out fifty taels to reward the champion, we can still earn fifty taels!"

Everyone was stunned, and then thought about it carefully, and found that it was really as Xiao Yuan said, this is completely a transaction that is not lost!

Not only can they beat their drinking fame, but they can also take the opportunity to make a fortune, which is simply a genius idea.

"Xiao Gongzi is worthy of being an arithmetic student, I am ashamed of myself!" With a smile on his face, Sun Qijie arched his hand towards Xiao Yuan and said.

Xiao Yuan's reputation for arithmetic was passed on to him by Xia Houlin, a professor of arithmetic in the Hanlin Academy, and now the old man met people and said how powerful Xiao Yuan's arithmetic was, and even said to others more than once that he wanted to invite Xiao Yuan to the Hanlin Academy to discuss arithmetic with each other, but unfortunately Xiao Yuan was in the Yuguo Mansion every day, and he didn't hear the news at all.

"But how many people will be involved like this?" Mo Qing asked with some concern.

"Haha... Young Master Zhou, let me ask you, if you encounter such a thing on the street, will you participate? Xiao Yuan smiled slightly and asked.

Zhou thought about it, nodded, grinned and replied, "Then I must participate!" First of all, I can drink for free, and secondly, I am still very confident in my drinking, this champion... Hand to hand!

"Yes, that's it!" Xiao Yuan nodded and said, "Who can drink, which one has no confidence in himself?" If you fight a drink, you will definitely win! But let's not talk about how strong our wine is, how many people can really drink it! If you think about it, there is only one champion at a time!

"So what if no one can finish it?" Or what about those who can drink and can't write their own names? At this time, Peng Fei couldn't help but ask.

He has many brothers and many can drink, but not many can write.

"Haha... Young Master Peng don't worry, if everyone doesn't finish drinking, then the one who drinks the most is the champion, and if he can't write, we can also say it in advance, draw a few circles! In short, the reward of this champion must be given away, and it cannot be smashed in our hands! Let those onlookers see that we are really sending silver, so that they will not hesitate to sign up! Xiao Yuan explained with a smile.

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but laugh.

"By the way, Brother Xiao, what is the name of this wine?" Just as everyone continued to talk and laugh, Mo Qing suddenly asked.

"This... I didn't think about it, why don't we think about it together? Xiao Yuan waved his hand indifferently and said.

To be honest, he didn't like this kind of wine, and when he returned to Shigui Village, he reworked the wine that he was brewing before he was qualified to let him rename it.

"It's better to call it Xiao wine, anyway, it's the wine made by the Xiao brothers!" Zhou Wei said with a big grin.

Xiao Yuan shook his head with a smile and said, "No, no... This is not my business alone, since it is everyone's business, it is better not to use this name!

"That's right, and this wine is strong, and it doesn't match the gentle character of the Xiao brothers, how about calling it fire soju?" This wine is like a fire, from the throat and eyes all the way to the belly! After thinking about it, Sun Qijie spoke.

For Sun Qijie's proposal, everyone agreed, and Xiao Yuan had no opinion, so he gave the new wine the name of the fire shochu.

"In this way, the Mo family is responsible for brewing, and the three are responsible for selling, in addition to leaving enough deposit, it is settled every three months, and each family has an account room, if there is a discrepancy at the time of settlement, then it will be raised immediately, no matter who it is, it must not be falsified on the account book!" How is it? After deciding on the name of the new wine, Xiao Yuan also said the rules, so as not to have any contradictions because of the money matter.

Sun Qijie and the three looked at each other, and they all shook their heads to indicate that there was no problem.

"Of course, you also know the reason why I made this fire shochu, so in Kyoto, our liquor can be sold to everyone, but not the Lee Family Restaurant or any merchants they work with!" I don't know if the three have any opinions on this? Seeing this, Xiao Yuan also mentioned his original intention again.
