Chapter 124
After returning to the mountain, Liu Xiu began to tinker with wine making. The men in black who wanted to kidnap him were just left behind. They just did it on the way back, so there was no need to take it to heart.
The techniques obtained from the Liu family winemakers are roughly divided into three stages: steaming, fermenting, and then steaming.
To be more detailed, you should first steam the raw materials, steam to a certain level, then mix with the koji and ferment, and finally distillate the fermented raw materials to get the wine. The wine brewed in this way is pure grain wine, which has not been blended with flavors. Liu Xiu also wants this kind of wine.
He not only learned about the detailed process from the winemaker, but also went to the Liu family winemaking workshop to see the detailed process. He knew the process and just tidied it up slowly by himself.
At present, Liu Xiu only has rice and soybeans to make wine, both of which are grown by himself. He decided to practice with these two raw materials first, and then consider using other raw materials to make wine after success.
"If you make wine, it seems that corn, wheat, sorghum and other things are better, but I have never seen corn in this world. Forget it, let's build tools first..."
Liu Xiuzhai was in the deep mountains and was involved in brewing wine, and he had no idea about the outside world.
It is simple to say that brewing wine is, even if you understand the specific process and get started with it personally, Liu Xiucai knows how troublesome it is.
Head: That's so simple, I understand.
Eyes: That's so simple, I understand.
Hand: If you have the ability, come...
Although it’s troublesome, Liu Xiu has time, just a little experiment, and experience is accumulated...
Days passed day by day, and when Liu Xiu was not moved by the outside world and devoted himself to brewing wine, Qingliu Town was not calm.
Liu Family, in recent times, Liu Qingqing has frowned more and more times.
That day, she couldn't help but fall into confusion and confusion as she looked at some of the information reported from her hands.
"There are still girls missing in the town every day, and it's different, every day. This situation has been going on for a long time. There was nothing strange at first, but another thing is strange. Recently, it's often found that people die for no reason, and the deceased all died of poisoning. What is the relationship between the two?"
Murmuring to himself, in a tangled manner, Liu Qingqing called an elite member of the Iron Armored Army Reserve and asked: "How is the investigation?"
"Sir, after this period of investigation, the organization still has no clue. The missing women have gone, like the evaporated from the world. According to incomplete statistics, at least 800 girls have been missing in the entire town so far, and people are in panic. Those who lost their daughters go to the town security office every day to inquire about the situation. The situation is extremely urgent. If you don't pay attention, you will cause a riot." The man replied in a tangled tone.
Hearing this answer, Liu Qingqing frowned even deeper, and she was under great pressure. The three major families in Qingliu Town managed everything, but now they have lost so many women. If they don’t give an explanation, once the people riot, the three major families will be destroyed in an instant!
Taking a deep breath, she turned to ask, "How are the poisoned dead?"
When talking about this, the person questioned also looked strange and frowned: "Sir, during this period, people in the town died for no reason. The cause of death was poisoning, and all kinds of identities, including beggars, poor people, and servants from wealthy families. So far, at least hundreds of people have died!"
"Well, then?" Liu Qingqing asked again.
After thinking about it, the man said, "Then, although the identities of the dead seem to have nothing to do with each other, we roughly judge that they are actually members of the evil organization!"
Liu Qingqing nodded slightly and said, "Basic?"
"Their death was the same as the two servants from the Tian family at that time. They were poisoned, and the death symptoms were exactly the same!" The man glanced at Liu Qingqing and said.
"In other words, judging from the poisoning symptoms of the deceased, they are members of the evil organization?" Liu Qingqing asked in a deep voice.
"Yes"
After thinking about it, Liu Qingqing struggled: "We have not found out the specific situation of that organization so far. Even who is the leader in Qingliu Town is unknown, but members of that organization have died one after another for no reason. Do you have any ideas about this?"
"Uh..., this..."
"Say!" Seeing the other party hesitate, Liu Qingqing said in a deep voice.
The man was confused for a moment and said, "Sir, we do have some speculations about the dead, but we just find it a bit incredible."
"Oh? What's the specific one?" Liu Qingqing asked curiously.
After organizing the language, the man said, "That's the case, sir, let's summarize it. There is a guess that there are many members of the organization in the town. Although we don't know how many, one thing is certain, that is, those people were forced to join the organization after being poisoned. Under the premise of being poisoned, they could not disclose the information of the organization. Even if they died, of course, it is possible that such lower-level personnel did not know the specifics of the organization at all. Then they died for no reason. Our guess is that there might be a problem with that organization. Maybe the top leaders of the organization in Qingliu Town had a problem and did not give the people below timely antidotes, so the number of people who died of poisoning for no reason during this period increased. The time for chronic poison has come, and without the antidote, they will naturally die!"
Hearing this remark, Liu Qingqing pondered for a moment and said, "I have had such speculations during this period, but it makes no sense. If there is a problem with the senior management of that organization, the disappearance of the girl will not be interrupted?"
"This is also something that my subordinates and others are puzzled by it," the man smiled bitterly.
"Well, keep checking, be sure to figure it out," Liu Qingqing said helplessly.
There was nothing to ask. After the man left, Liu Qingqing frowned and said to herself: Could it be that the leader of the organization in Qingliu Town died? Those who were controlled by poison to join the organization had no follow-up antidotes, but the disappearance of the girl has not ended, it was strange...
After pondering for a moment, a trace of inspiration suddenly flashed through Liu Qingqing's mind, and she was shocked.
Could it be that the disappearance of those girls was done by a big family in the town, and they obeyed the senior leaders of the organization. If there was a problem with the senior leaders of the organization and there was no follow-up order, they were still arresting the girls. If, if something happened to the senior leaders of the organization, then in this way, the plundered girls were actually still somewhere in the town and were not transported out?
Thinking of this, Liu Qingqing couldn't sit still and immediately asked someone to instruct, "Hurry up, check me immediately, check those wealthy families, see if there are any abnormalities in their manors, such as strange people entering and leaving, inexplicably increasing daily necessities, etc."
With Liu Qingqing's order, the entire Qingliu Town surged undercurrents.
The people who can command Liu Qingqing brought more than one hundred elite members of the Iron Armored Army reserve service. She represented Linjiang City. The armed personnel who maintained the town's three major families in Qingliu Town must obey his arrangements!
It doesn’t matter if you check Liu Qingqing’s idea. After half a day, you will find a major discovery. There is something wrong with a Tian family manor in the mountains 30 miles away from Qingliu Town!
In recent times, the villa that was originally just a summer vacation in the Tian family needed a large amount of food for no reason. This was very abnormal. After receiving the news, Liu Qingqing immediately arranged someone to rush to surround the villa.
"Miss Liu, what do you mean?"
The Tian family's summer resort was surrounded, and the head of the Tian family appeared here to question Liu Qingqing.
It is of great importance. Liu Qingqing has no time to argue with Tian Kang to avoid accidents. She said in a deep voice: "Uncle Tian, I suspect there is a problem here. I need to check it carefully here. Please go out of the way. I will explain the others later."
If it weren't for the concern that the Tian family still had some influence in Qingliu Town, Liu Qingqing directly ordered him to be taken down.
When Tian Kang heard this, he was furious and stood in front of Liu Qingqing and said angrily: "Liu Qingqing, what do you mean? This is my Tian family's manor. If you ask, check it. Who is my Tian family? Yes, our Tian family and your Liu family had some misunderstandings at the time, but you can't hide the public and take personal revenge. You are a warrior and a member of the Iron Armor Army. Although my son Tian Lin is not an Iron Armor Army, he is also an elite of the reserve service. He may become a member of the Iron Armor Army at any time. Don't go too far!"
When he heard this, Liu Qingqing narrowed his eyes and waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Go and check it for me. If you dig three feet into this manor, you must check it out for me. Whoever dares to stop him and take it down immediately!"
It would be fine if Tian Kang didn’t stop him, but the more he stopped Liu Qingqing, the more he felt that there was something wrong here.
"You dare!" Tian Kang roared, standing in front of him without any permission.
However, it was useless. In front of the violent agency, Liu Qingqing was taken down to escort Tian Kang. If it weren't for his son Tian Lin, who was also a member of the Iron Armored Army Reserve, Liu Qingqing, who had experienced the blood and fire, would have dared to order him to be cut down!
In front of warriors, there is often no reason to say...
The Tian family also had many guards, but after Tian Kang was taken down, the guards did not dare to act rashly.
Next, the manor was full of chaos. After a search that could be dug three feet into the ground, a dungeon was opened, causing an uproar.
In that dungeon, hundreds of missing girls in the town are here!
Seeing those girls, Liu Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief. In this way, although she did not find out the organization, she could give the residents of the town a little explanation.
Asking the people below to verify and comfort the girls, Liu Qingqing came to Tian Kang and said with a complicated expression: "Uncle Tian, should you say something now?"
"Framed, Liu Qingqing, you are framed, I don't know anything, Liu Qingqing, you are taking personal revenge." In the face of iron evidence, Tian Kang still roared extremely toughly.
However, this posture is a bit like a dead end in Liu Qingqing's eyes.
Ignoring Tian Kang's clamor, Liu Qingqing frowned and ordered the people around her: "Take it down, be careful not to let him die, control everyone in the Tian family, be sure to find out the truth. Secondly, send someone to Linjiang City to ask where Tian Lin is now..."
"yes!"
