Chapter 26 Drawings

Rong Qi pulled him aside and whispered something to him. Rong Wu was stunned. "Master, are you still trying to get rid of us?"

Rong Qi frowned. He understood Rong Tang's thinking. Who would keep a few people who had other masters in their hearts working around them? Once there was a conflict of interest between the two sides, who would they be considered to be, and who would they be loyal to?

In the past, they always thought that since they had brought Rong Tang back, he would definitely be on the master's side. Now it seems that they still took it for granted. Rong Tang is an independent individual and he will not be easily forced to become anyone's person.

Having lived with him for more than two months, they knew Rong Tang's abilities very well. The last thing they wanted was for him to become an enemy of his former master, which would put them in a very difficult position.

Rong Wu will go and report first.

"Master, the time has come. Jin Yaoyang has been released. Coincidentally, just as I was untying him, the Jin family from the capital came looking for us. Jin Yaoyang made some harsh remarks before leaving. I suspect he came here at night to do something bad. Do you think we should prepare in advance?"

Rong Tang stopped writing and thought for a few moments.

"I see."

Rong Wu was a little anxious, and said, "Sir, are you looking for a carpenter? I can do that too."

Rong Tang had seen Rong Wu's carpentry work. To be precise, it could not be called carpentry work, but only carving skills. Although the raw materials were both wood, it was not the same thing.

His eager eyes left Rong Tang speechless. He pulled out a picture from a pile of papers and showed it to him. "Do you understand? If you do, I'll leave it to you."

Rong Wu perked up and looked at it carefully, and found that the picture was very strange. It was neither furniture nor a carriage. It was just two round cylindrical barrels with strange curved pipes connecting the tops. He couldn't understand it at all.

"This this……"

He was at a loss for words. "Sir, could you explain what this is for? Perhaps if you knew what it was for, I'd have some idea."

"This is a steamer, used for making ling wine. Forget it, call a few people in from outside."

Rong Dashan, Rong Dazhu and Wang Youcai were left outside the house. Just when they were feeling strange, Rong Wu came and called them in.

The three of them entered the main room, and Rong Tang took out a few more papers from a pile and placed them on the table one by one. He said to them, "This is a complete set of equipment for brewing wine. Has anyone of you seen it?"

Rong An worked as an accountant in a wine shop, and happened to have a look inside another wine-making workshop. Although the ones in the pictures were not exactly the same, they were somewhat similar.

He pointed to the large barrel at the last link and said, "The wine flows out from here and into the large barrel on the ground."

As for the previous part, I'm sorry, that's someone else's business secret and he can't understand it.

Rong Tang nodded and explained to them from the first step: what shape it is, what materials it is made of, what function it has, and what principle it relies on. Finally, the fermented grain becomes wine.

He simply explained the recipe for brewing wine in detail.

Rong Dashan and the others were losing their patience. "Master, just tell us how to make the item. No need to go into such detail. Tell us the recipe. What if we keep it secret..."

"This is just how to use the equipment. The key is how to ferment the grain. Now tell me, can you do it or not?"

Rong Dashan said, "Sir, you've explained it in such detail. If you still can't do it, don't be so shameless as to claim that you can do carpentry. Don't worry, sir, I will definitely do it within three days."

Rong Wu had no idea what to do and was anxious. He suddenly said, "Master, why bother with so much trouble? Can't we just go to the winery in town and see how they make it? Who's coming with me?"

Rong Tang closed the drawing, pretended not to hear what he said, and slowly tidied the table.

Gui Ergou asked them to leave with a smile and winked at Rong Wu.

Rong Wu understood.

A moment later, he pulled the carriage out and took Rong Dashan, Rong Dazhu and Wang Youcai to the town. At this time, the sun was setting and they had little time left.

In fact, the drawings drawn by Rong Tang are not the same as the wine-making equipment that exists in this world, but the principles are the same. Just take a look at them and they will have an idea of ​​how to make it.

The place was not too far from the town. About an hour later, everyone came back. The pitch-black sky could not hide their excited and flushed faces.

If they had seen the winery's equipment a day earlier, they wouldn't have understood what they were used for. But after Rong Tang's explanation, the function of each link became clear, and it became quite simple.

Rong Tang's paintings were even more exquisite, more advanced, and more beautiful than those of Shopkeeper Lu. Even the honest Rong Dashan, who originally felt that peeping into other people's secrets was unkind, now felt at ease.

With those tips, they were 100% sure they could get the job done.

After making the promise, several people went home with confidence.

After they left, Rong Wu took out a handful of grayish-white balls from his arms and handed them to Rong Tang hesitantly, "Master, do you think this will work?"

Rong Tang took a look and was shocked. Oh my god, it was distiller's yeast. This is so useful!

"What made you think of stealing this?"

Rong Wu scratched his head. "I think that Shopkeeper Lu really values ​​this thing. He said that even if he sells the wine recipe, he won't sell the wine yeast recipe. He wants to use this gray pill to get shares. I think this should be a useful thing."

"Yes, it's useful. This is the yeast. Without it, there's no wine. Even a handful like this doesn't make much. It's not enough."

"Then I'll go steal again."

Rong Tang raised his hand to stop him. Once Shopkeeper Lu discovered the koji was running low, he would definitely be more careful. Even if he stole it all, it probably wouldn't be a large amount. He had to make his own koji to ensure a constant supply.

But no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't remember the most important ingredient for making koji.

But he is not particularly anxious at the moment. He still has several thousand kilograms of wine. At worst, he can just purify it first.

Dahu's wife prepared dinner for dinner. Because they had eaten greasy food during the day, she only cooked some fragrant porridge and fried two vegetarian dishes at Chuncao's request, and then went home.

Chuncao invited her family to dinner. Rong San and Rong Si were missing, but Daya and Li Shiwa were there, so there were still seven people in total.

When Daya saw Aunt Dahu leave, she wanted to leave too, but Chuncao stopped her, "Daya, we agreed to provide you with three meals a day. If you leave now, what if your family doesn't have any food left for you? I was thinking of saying, why don't you stay here?"

Daya's face turned pale. "No, Sister Chuncao, I can't afford to work here. I can't stay here."

Chuncao then remembered that most of the people in the compound were adult men, and Daya had a husband's family, so it was indeed inappropriate for her to live here.

"Then eat quickly, and let Shiwazi take you back after you finish."

Li Shiwa also said: "Yes, Sister Daya, I will take you there."

Chuncao brought porridge to Rongtang and told him about this. Rongtang said, "We were negligent. The crops here are tall and dense. Daya needs to be more careful. Prepare dinner early tomorrow and let her go home before night."

Chuncao said, "There was a lot of work in the kitchen today, so the meal was cooked late. We'll cook it early tomorrow."
