"What? Is this your brew?"

  Upon hearing this, Shen You's intoxication was immediately dispelled by half, and he cried out in surprise, saying: "How is this possible?"

  Yang Chengye expected Shen You to have such an expression and didn't think much of it, saying: "This is still due to the simplicity of the equipment. If the equipment were more precise, I could brew wine that's ten times, a hundred times better than this!"

  At this time Shen You's wine was completely awake, and he grabbed Yang Chengye's arm with one hand, asking: "Brother, is what you said true?"

  Yang Chengye looked at Shen You and asked: "Big brother, do you think I'm joking?"

  Hahaha

  Shen You burst out laughing again and said: "I knew it, my brother is no ordinary person, I was right to guess!"

  "Come on, brother will take you home!"

  Shen You finished speaking and didn't wait for Yang Chengye's objection. He directly got on the horse carriage and rushed towards Shen You's home.

  Shen's family, located in Gangzi Village ten miles outside Jiaxing City, is one of the richest families in Jiaxing Prefecture.

  The Shen family owns thousands of acres of good fields, thousands of acres of tea gardens, and hundreds of tenant households. The entire village of Gangzi Village is a tenant household of the Shen family, and they also do salt business.

  In ancient times, salt was always officially distributed and never allowed to be intervened by private individuals. However, Shen You had a slight familial relationship with the current Jiaxing prefecture governor, and every month he would send a considerable amount of gifts, so naturally, the salt business fell into the hands of the Shen family.

  The Shen family mansion is not luxurious in its construction, but it covers a vast area and has a very majestic atmosphere, without the delicate elegance of Jiangnan.

  Shen You's mother, Zou Shi, was also the daughter of a wealthy family in Suzhou. After marrying Shen You's father, she returned to Kunshan.

  Less than a year after Shen You was born, his father was killed by bandits while on a business trip. Zou Shi and Shen You were left alone and were ostracized by the Shen family, forcing them to leave their home.

  At that time, Zou's family was in a state of turmoil and she had no face to return home, so she took one-year-old Shen You on the road to Jiaxing, relying on her perseverance, she raised Shen You while building a successful business.

  Zou is over seventy years old, an elderly woman with gray hair on both sides of her temples. She had long since handed over the Shen family business to Shen You to manage, and Shen You did not disappoint, managing the business in an orderly manner.

  At this time, Zou sat in front of the round table in the room, holding Shen Fu who was laughing "heh heh" in his arms. Across from him was Wu Ruolan with a bandage wrapped around her forehead covering her eyes.

  "Big sister, didn't our ancestor say that we can remove the mourning dress after a month? Today is the last day."

  Zou said to Wu Ruolan.

  Wu Ruo Lan sighed and said, "It's been so many years, I don't have any hope anymore. Who would have thought that my grandfather would say that my eyes can still be treated, and he even wants to perform surgery on me."

  "I really don't know where he learned these weird skills!"

  Zou smiled and said: "Big sister, you're wrong. Inheriting the legacy isn't some kind of weird skill, it's a great skill."

  "Haven't you heard of Hua Tuo treating Guan Yu's bone and scraping away the poison, and performing trephining to cure Cao Cao's headache?"

  "What he did with his ancestor is almost identical, this is indeed the ability of a great doctor!"

  "Wu Ruolan said: "Sister is right, but his father wants him to take the imperial examination and serve the country, but now he has put his mind on these strange skills and brewing, isn't this unfilial?"

  "Sister, it's said that everyone has their own aspirations and shouldn't be forced."

  Zou continued to persuade: "A man with ambition should let him play his strengths in the field he is good at. Literature has its own excellence, martial arts have their own wonders, business has its own wealth, and farming has its own reality. Aren't they all contributing to the great Song Dynasty?"

  "There are Bao Zheng and Kou Zhun in literature, Yang Family's ancestors Yang Family Generals and Yue Fei Yue Wu Mu, Han Shizhong Han Yuan Shuai in martial arts. Merchants pay taxes to the imperial court, poor farmers offer grain and hay to the imperial court."

  "Moreover, when the imperial court wages war on the front lines, can it do without silver and grain? As the saying goes, 'when guns fire, tens of thousands of taels of gold are spent', isn't war fought with silver?"

  "Let's talk about medicine, in ancient times there were divine doctors Bian Que, Hua Tuo, Zhang Zhongjing and Sun Simiao, which one was not respected by people before and praised by later generations, leaving a good reputation for centuries?"

  "If our ancestor could become a doctor and make his name known for generations to come, wouldn't that be another great honor added to the Yang family?"

  Besides, even if your eyes recover, wouldn't you be able to put down the huge stone in your heart and rush to Beijing for the imperial examination?

  Zou's endless words left Wu Rulan breathless, barely able to get a word in edgewise.

  It wasn't until Zou stopped to drink tea that Wu Rulan had a chance to interrupt.

  "Sister, what you said is also right, but..."

  Zou interrupted Wu Ruolan again: "I'm saying, big sister, it's not like the emperor will arrive in Beijing for another three years, maybe by then, the emperor will change his mind!"

  "Is what sister said really true?" Wu Ruo Lan excitedly grabbed Zou Shi's hand and asked.

  "Hey, can you still cheat your little sister?" Zou said with a smile.

  Wu Ruolan could only helplessly say: "Forget it, maybe after three years of mourning for her ancestors, she'll change her mind and go to the capital to take the imperial examination."

  Wu Ruolan finished speaking and burst out laughing with Zou Shi.

  Shen family's wine workshop, with many large vats inside, the vats are filled with a lot of sorghum, which has already fermented and emits a pungent smell.

  Next to the large pot is a distillation apparatus redesigned and rebuilt by Yang Chengye, which is much more precise than before.

  At this time, Yang Chengye was debugging the equipment, and Shen You was beside him.

  "Brother, should be about it this time?"

  Shen You looked at Yang Chengye who was covered in sweat and asked: "This is already the thirteenth time."

  Yang Chengye nodded and said: "This time it should be done, good wine will be out soon."

  Upon hearing this, Shen You suddenly became excited. In the past month, through Yang Chengye's techniques, they had brewed a large quantity of wine that was several dozen times better than what they used to drink.

  And they are also divided into five levels, from high to low, namely A, B, C, D, and E, each with a different price.

  First-class wine: five guan of money per vat, one vat is ten kilograms. Second-class wine: four guan of money per vat. Third-class wine: three guan of money per vat. Fourth-class wine: two guan of money per vat. Fifth-class wine: one guan of money per vat.

  And opened a wine house in Jiaxing City, with five kinds of wine lined up one after another, clearly priced, and surprisingly, no one asked for it at first.

  Three days later, after the shopkeeper's sales pitch, someone finally walked into the hotel with a try-it-out attitude. After taking one sip, he suddenly shouted loudly, saying that he had drunk the Jade Liquid and Pearl Dew.

  When there is one, there will be two. When there are two, there will be three. After that person's shouting, the onlookers rushed in, and the business in the wine house suddenly boomed, with wine in short supply.

  This time Yang Chengye brewed the best wine, named "Baixian Xian", which was specially brewed by Yang Chengye for Zou Shi and Wu Ruolan.

  According to Yang Chengye, this wine contains dozens of herbs, drinking it can prolong life and live up to hundreds of years without any problem, not sold for thousands of dollars.

  As Shen You, who is a filial son, would definitely agree with both hands up.
