The Transmigrated Farm Girl Has a Cheat Code

Chapter 154 It's on Fire!

After a wave of promotion, Wangyou Winery became a hit. Although people in Rong'an County knew that the wine from this winery was expensive, they knew it was very good.

Some restaurants or wealthy families in the city would send people to place orders for wine, and the winery began to receive more orders.

Especially after the emergence of new aged sweet potatoes and sugarcane flames, another wave of popularity has arrived.

When Fu Bo and his team returned from their second trip, they brought back a large order.

Yunweilou Restaurant in Fucheng wants to order 500 jars of sake.

Lin Yan was taken aback. Yunweilou. She remembered that she had eaten at Yunweilou when she went to the prefectural city last time. It was the largest restaurant in the prefectural city.

However, unlike the liquor store in the county, Yunweilou mainly relies on food and inn services and doesn't sell much liquor.

Because they don't brew their own wine, and there are several wineries in the prefectural city that specialize in selling wine, which account for the majority of sales.

If Yunweilou were to sell alcohol, it would have to source it from elsewhere, but it would definitely have to raise prices to make a profit. However, raising prices would not be cost-effective for customers.

Why should I buy the expensive one when I can buy the cheaper one at the distillery?

"Is Yunweilou ordering so much wine to resell?" Lin Yan asked, a little puzzled.

Fu Bo said, "They don't usually sell alcohol, but some customers order it directly when they come to eat without bringing their own, and they'll add a markup. However, we haven't opened a shop in the prefectural city yet. Once we return, they'll have a market for it."

Quan Sinian laughed and said, "Don't underestimate our wine. The wine from our winery is of very high quality and is very popular."

Lin Yan nodded, "The traveling merchant who bought sake from me last time has come back to see me again. This time he also bought sugarcane sake and sugarcane flame sake. He will take them to the capital to sell."

Quan Sinian was taken aback when he heard this. "It seems to be selling well."

Lin Yan smiled and said, "Of course, he said our wine is very popular, and now only Yu Xian Zui can surpass it in the capital."

"Zhao Yuncheng's letter said that because of the limited quantity, some merchants had speculated on this wine and it was worth four taels of silver. The reason why he stopped mentioning it was because the whole family winery was holding onto it. If it were to surpass the price of Yuxianzui, it would offend people."

Quan Sinian: Zhao... Yuncheng.

Quan Sinian stared blankly at Lin Yan, "You just call her by her full name like that!"

Fu Bo: "Who is Zhao Yuncheng? Zhao? That's... a royal surname, isn't it..."

Lin Yan asked, "If I don't have a given name, what should I have? Has he been given a courtesy name?"

Quan Sinian: "No...it's nothing! As long as you're happy!"

Fu Bo: ? ? ?

"You two both know people I don't know, and from the capital city at the same time. Is that reasonable? When did Lin Yan ever go to the capital city?"

"Well, I met him when he came to Yun'an. His identity is rather special, so I won't go into details. He's the one who recommended Master Quan to me."

Fu Bo nodded. He knew it!

…………

Beijing.

"Seventh Brother! Seventh Brother! Zhao Yuncheng!" Zhao Yunqing ran in from outside, fuming.

Zhao Yuncheng put down what he was holding. "What are you doing now?"

"Why did they only bring you wine?! I also took in all those family members! Why didn't they bring me any?!" Zhao Yunqing grabbed Cheng Lin's arm and tried to force her way inside.

"I want one too!!!"

Zhao Yuncheng said impatiently, "Go buy it yourself."

"They're sold out in the capital, you can't buy them at all!"

Zhao Yunqing expressed his anger, saying that Zhao Yuncheng had accepted two cartloads of wine, but he himself hadn't received a single jar, which was outrageous.

"This wasn't a gift from my whole family."

Zhao Yunqing's fox-like eyes twitched. Of course, he knew that the wine was not a gift from the whole family, and the winery was someone else's business. He just wanted to swindle a few jars of wine from Zhao Yuncheng.

"Your business has been doing very well lately! You're making a fortune."

Zhao Yuncheng didn't even glance at him, continuing to process the information in his hands. These were letters sent by Xiaoyao Tower, mainly about the situation in the capital and the conversations of high-ranking officials.

It wasn't that he was thinking of competing for anything, but given his special circumstances, it was better to make more preparations.

"I heard Miss Su really likes sugarcane wine. All of it's sold out in the capital, so Fifth Brother is searching everywhere for it, offering high prices to buy it!"

Zhao Yuncheng's eyes flickered, "Acquisition..."

"Mu Yu, go and put out a few jars of sugarcane wine, but don't reveal your identity."

"Yes," Mu Yu replied from outside the door.

Zhao Yuncheng certainly didn't want to help Zhao Yunxuan; he was just worried that Zhao Yunxuan wouldn't be able to buy the wine and would send someone to find Lin Yan and the others.

"He doesn't even know that this wine was brewed by Quan Rongxing. I don't know what he was thinking, choosing such a spineless man like Quan Rongzhi. I think even Yuxianzui doesn't taste as good as it used to."

Zhao Yunqing said indignantly:

"Sooner or later, his business will go bankrupt."

"Quan Rongxing is an honest man, and he won't be manipulated. It's easier to control a fence-sitter like Quan Rongxing. As long as there's a wine recipe and a reputation, most people won't be able to tell the difference. Everyone just needs the name 'Yu Xian Zui' and the wine will still sell. He only needs to make money and doesn't need to improve the quality of the wine, nor can he."

Jade Immortal's Drunkenness is the pinnacle of Quan Rongxing's continuous improvement of the wines brewed by his family's winery over generations. If it weren't for someone like Lin Yan, who has extraordinary talent, providing him with inspiration, he might never have been able to brew a wine that could surpass Jade Immortal's Drunkenness in his entire life.

Not to mention Quan Rongzhi, who didn't have much ability to begin with. The fact that he was able to replicate the wine recipe to this extent is all thanks to his hard work and dedication.

……

The capital city of Daye, Ruijing.

"Your Highness, Yun'an has brought wine again." Chen Feng knocked on the study door.

"Hmm? Didn't you deliver it once a while ago?" Xiao Jingzhi opened the door with some confusion.

After recovering from his illness, Xiao Jingzhi no longer looked weak and sickly, and appeared much more energetic.

"It's a new flavor! Your Highness, come out and try it!" Chen Shuo said excitedly.

Xiao Jingzhi could tell from Chen Shuo's expression that he wanted to drink it, so he smiled and said, "Then open a jar and try it."

Chen Shuo grinned from ear to ear as he went to open the bottle.

Chen Feng handed Xiao Jingzhi a letter, "Written by Lin Yan."

Xiao Jingzhi opened it and read it through. It mainly contained information about the progress of their winery, the descriptions of the wines, and finally, a mention of his health.

Xiao Jingzhi smiled upon seeing this, put down the letter, and said, "There are actually four kinds of wine here!"

"It seems their distillery is progressing well," Chen Feng remarked.

"Your Highness, please have a taste!" Chen Shuo brought over several cups of wine.

“This jar says it’s sugarcane wine.” Chen Shuo picked up the jar and looked at it. “Forget-Worry Winery, hey, what a name.”

"Fruit wine." Xiao Jingzhi took a sniff and smelled the refreshing fruity aroma. He then downed the glass of wine in one gulp. "Hmm, not bad. Much better than plum wine."

Xiao Jingzhi looked at the other types of wine and didn't let Chen Shuo pour him any, since Chen Shuo was engrossed in drinking. He then poured himself a glass of Zheyan wine.

"Phew, I like this." Xiao Jingzhi's eyes sparkled.

"This should be distilled."

"Miss Lin, these wines are all of very high quality. It looks like you're going to make a fortune," Chen Feng remarked after taking a couple of drinks.

"Then we can let her open a market in Daye," Xiao Jingzhi murmured softly.
