Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 131 Alcohol and Nurses

Zhu Yuxi came back from the pilot training ground, and took Fei Zhen'e and others to inspect the wine shop in the palace.

There are many wineries in the Palace of the King of Shu, but there is only a small winery in the Palace of the King of Shu. It was originally used to brew a kind of rare grain wine, which was specially used by the masters of the King of Shu.

On the second day after Aimee Zhu taught Hong Niangzi and others how to control drones, Fang Zhenghua was ordered to take over the small winery in person.

Although Fang Zhenghua was appointed by Aimee Zhu as the admiral of the East Factory, he was also in charge of the eunuchs in the Shu Palace.

But the East Factory is still sparsely staffed, and there are few things to do.

As for the eunuchs in the Shu Palace, they were also well managed with the management system provided by Aunt Zhu.

In addition, unlike Fei Zhen'e, Fang Zhenghua needs to guard Aimi Zhu at all times, so he has a lot of leisure time.

So Auntie Zhu entrusted him with the important task of taking over the small winery.

When Auntie Zhu arrived, Fang Zhenghua was guarding the small wine shop, and immediately led a group of people to salute.

"See Prison State!"

"Flat body."

After everyone was at peace, Zhu Wei said again: "Eunuch Fang, let them do whatever they need to do, just bring a few stewards and accompany me to look around."

"Yes."

The small winery is indeed small, covering only a large yard, where all the processes of wine making used to be carried out.

After Aimee Zhu let Fang Zhenghua take over the place, she also made wine, but it used old grain to brew ordinary grain wine, not the previous treasures.

In addition, after the wine is brewed, another process is added-distillation!
And it is three distillations!
The method of distillation appeared in the Song and Yuan Dynasties. It is generally called shochu, but it is only distilled twice at most.

Because distilled three times soju is extremely strong (eighty or ninety degrees), it is not drinkable at all, and it consumes a lot of raw materials.

But what Auntie Zhu wanted was extremely strong shochu that had been distilled three times, and named it "alcohol".

There is no doubt that Aimee Zhu asked Fang Zhenghua to take over this small winery for the purpose of producing alcohol.

Auntie Zhu went to the distilling room to look around, and asked, "How much alcohol can be produced in a day now?"

Fang Zhenghua said: "Since the successful production of alcohol, the old slave has ordered the staff in the workshop to rotate in two shifts, day and night, and has been able to produce eight altars of alcohol every day."

Auntie Zhu nodded in satisfaction.

She knew that the big wine jar that Fang Zhenghua was talking about was not the kind of small wine jar that the hotel gave guests to drink, but a large wine jar that could hold several buckets.

"So how much alcohol have you stored?" Aimee Zhu asked again.

Fang Zhenghua said: "In addition to sending ten altars to the wounded barracks to make medical alcohol under the order of His Highness, there are still 48 altars in stock."

Auntie Zhu nodded in satisfaction again.

Even if production is suspended today, this amount is barely enough for the consumption of alcohol in Chinese medicine in the subsequent war and the implementation of the "beheading plan".

After that, Aimee Zhu actually checked the inventory and other places in the winery.

Before leaving, he solemnly instructed: "Alcohol is extremely flammable and is really a dangerous substance. Therefore, safety must be the top priority in storage, transportation, and even daily production operations. Does Eunuch Fang understand?"

Fang Zhenghua said: "The old slave understands, just like what the son-in-law wrote in the method of distillation: Safety first."

Seeing that Fang Zhenghua really cared about the safety of the winery, Aunt Zhu prepared to leave.

Fang Zhenghua said, "Your Highness, I have another idea."

"what idea?"

Fang Zhenghua said: "The alcohol distilled from ordinary wine is extremely strong. Although southerners don't like it, it must be very popular in the cold places in the north.

Now that His Highness has mastered this secret recipe, can you consider brewing strong wine and selling it to the north to increase the income of Jian Guofu? "

Auntie Zhu heard Liu's eyebrows slightly frowned, and wanted to reject it directly.

After all, what Daming is short of now is food, and alcohol may be banned in the future, so how can it still make wine and sell it?
But after hearing what Hao Guangming said through the Bluetooth headset, she changed her mind.

She said: "It is indeed a good way to generate income by distilling spirits for sale, but it cannot be made from grain.

Fruit wine should be tried, especially those seasonal fruits that do not keep well. "

Fang Zhenghua was thoughtful when he heard this, and then he showed admiration, and said, "Thanks to His Highness, I woke up, otherwise this old servant would have made a big mistake. Grain is so precious right now that it really cannot be used for wine making.

But whether it was the manors of the former Shu Palace or the people who planted fruit trees in central Sichuan, most of the fruits could not be sold and rotted.

If we can buy it in time, we can brew strong fruit wine to generate income for the Jian Guofu, and increase some income for the people in Sichuan and Sichuan without consuming food. "

Aunt Zhu smiled and nodded, "It's good that Eunuch Fang understands the relationship.

Then this matter of brewing strong fruit wine should also be selected by Mr. Fang to do it - if there is no accident, the autumn harvest will be after the battle with Zhang Xianzhong, which is a good time to do this. "

"Old slave takes orders!"

···
after dinner.

Aunt Zhu handles government affairs in Chengyun Hall.

Although she established the Jianguo Mansion, with Li Yan as the supervisor, and various departments under the Jianguo Mansion successively found some people to set up it, but Zhu Wei, as the supervisor of the country and the actual controller of the Chengdu Mansion, still needs her to read some government affairs , processed.

There are not many, and they are usually military and political affairs, or some affairs that must be known and approved by her.

As for whether the current structure of the Jian Guo Mansion will allow the governor to become the prime minister in the future and divide the monarchy, it is not within the scope of Zhu Yuxi's consideration now.

It should be noted that in any dynasty, its system is not fixed at the beginning, but a stable system is formed after many adjustments and changes.

For example, in the Ming Dynasty, there were many major changes in the various systems of the Hongwu Dynasty, and even the Zhongshu Province and the Prime Minister were all changed.

Regardless of the fact that the ministers and emperors in the back are always talking about things according to the ancestral rules, in fact, every emperor will make changes to the national system and policies, and even completely overturn some policies set by the previous emperors.

Those who think that the Chinese feudal dynasty will stick to the "law of the ancestors" will never change, and they don't understand the Chinese feudal dynasty at all.

Since the Tang-Wu Revolution, although the Zhou rites have been continuously inherited, from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period, the princes have survived through reforms and strengthened through reforms.

Throughout the unified dynasties such as Qin, Han, Tang, Song, Yuan and Ming, there is no one that has not carried out reforms.

Even the reforms with greater actions have been carried out by many dynasties.

Therefore, it can be said that the Chinese dynasties have survived the reform and change, but many times the old interest groups were too strong, which made the reform fail repeatedly.

If the reform is successful, at least it can make a dynasty last for decades, and if it is powerful, it can make a prince dominate and even rule the world.

Feasible reforms that no one in power would say no to.

Therefore, the structure of the forces controlled by Aimee Zhu will definitely change again in the future...

"See Your Highness."

At around eight o'clock, Lianqiao and Liu Zhu, who came back from their shifts, went to Chengyun Hall to greet Auntie Zhu, and reported what they had seen and heard in the wounded barracks today.

I don't know since when, people close to Aimee Zhu like to call Aimee Zhu "Your Highness" in more private occasions.

In the public and more formal occasions, it is called Jian Guo.

Aunt Zhu nodded, motioning for the two to get back on their feet, and then asked, "How is the wounded barracks today? Did something bad happen?"

Lian Qiao said: "No bad things happened in the wounded camp, but so far more than 1000 wounded soldiers have been treated.

The slaves saw that the wounded barracks were obviously not enough to take care of the manpower, and those handymen recruited from outside were not only careless but also impatient when taking care of the wounded soldiers.

Some wounded soldiers are also very angry. Now there are more than ten quarrels every day, and there are even fights. "

Aunt Zhu frowned upon hearing this, and asked, "When did this situation start?"

Lian Qiao said: "It happened before, but it wasn't serious. It's just that there have been more wounded soldiers in the past few days, so it has become more serious."

On the other side, Hao Guangming, who has been accompanying Aimi Zhu to work through WeChat videos, sighed: "It seems that you, Daming, should use nurses as soon as possible."

"Nurse?"

Auntie Zhu did not guard against Lianqiao and Liu Zhu, and spoke directly to Hao Guangming.

Hao Guangming said: "That's right, it's a nurse, a profession in our modern hospital that specializes in taking care of patients, also known as an angel in white..."

Then, Hao Guangming searched for relevant information on the Internet, and at the same time explained to Aimee Zhu the origin, development and important role of the nurse profession in the medical system of later generations.

Lianqiao and Liu Zhu had long heard that the late emperor had promised the princess to the son-in-law of future generations, and after being selected by Auntie Zhu to work for so many days, they also knew that the princess could talk to the son-in-law across the air.

Therefore, they were all just waiting with a little curiosity, not impatient.

After about a quarter of an hour, Auntie Zhu cast her eyes on the two of them, after a moment of thought, she said, "This Palace will entrust you with a heavy task, I wonder if you are willing to do it."
