Although I don’t know what the fourth prince Ji Huan meant, Li Xin did not offend him. He politely said goodbye to His Highness, King Qi, and came to the Wei Palace.

Because he had notified in advance, the seventh prince Ji Wen had been waiting for Li Xin in the mansion. After seeing Li Xin, the prince pulled Li Xin's sleeve and smiled and said, "Why did Brother Xin come now?"

Seeing that there was no one around, Li Xin said softly: "The two troubled women from Nanshu in the morning were sent out of the capital."

The seventh prince's face became solemn: "Is that informant from Nanshu here?"

"Here you come."

Li Xin whispered: "I'm going to bring him by my side and get him the identity of Yulin Guard in a few days."

Ji Wen frowned: "It's no problem to bring him around, but if he is allowed to join the Yulin Guard, if his identity is exposed in the future and the court pursues it, you, the introducer, will be affected."

"Your Highness, I've thought about this."

Li Xin said, "Everyone of these survivors in Nanshu has a serious identity. As long as they don't rebel, their identity will not be exposed. I will take him by my side, and he will not have the opportunity to rebel. Even if there is chaos in the south of Xinjiang in the future, he will return to Nanshu and follow it and rebel, which has nothing to do with us."

In this era, there was no instant communication like later generations, and there was no well-connected network. After changing one person's name to another place, as long as he was more peaceful, he would basically be two people, and the court generally could not pursue it.

His Highness the King of Wei frowned and thought for a while, then nodded at last, and said, "Brother Xin is meticulous and I feel at ease in doing things. In the future, I will leave everything about Nanshu to Brother Xin to do. I will not ask."

His words seemed to be a generous delegation of power, but in fact he did not want to get involved in this matter, because his identity as a prince was really inconvenient to have any contact with the remnants of Southern Shu.

Li Xin can understand this.

After all, there is no way to not understand.

Just so happens that the seventh prince just asked about this matter, and he can let go of his hands and feet when doing things and will not be bound.

The two of them talked about Nanshu for a while, Li Xin coughed and said, "Your Highness, have the wine-making stuff be prepared?"

Ji Wen nodded: "It was done two months ago, but you were in southern Xinjiang at that time and left it in the backyard and didn't move. I'll take you to see it."

The principle of distilled liquor is very simple, because the boiling point of alcohol is only more than 70 degrees. With this boiling point gap, the alcohol and the aroma in the liquor can be distilled out.

The principle is simple, and the equipment will not be too complicated. In theory, only a heating equipment, a sealed pipeline, and a condensing equipment are basically completed.

As for the raw materials, there is no need to buy them. The Wei Palace itself has a lot of fine wines. For the sake of social use, His Highness, the King of Wei, is not a good person, so he brought out all the wines in the wine cellar.

Li Xin arrived at the Wei Palace at noon. He worked hard for the afternoon. It was about Shen Shi that the first drop of distilled wine finally dripped from the pot for condensation.

The only drawback is that the pipe made of bamboo tubes must have interfaces, and the sealing is not particularly good, so the conversion efficiency is not very high. About ten kilograms of wine can only steam about two kilograms of wine.

Li Xin had expected this situation, so there was nothing to be surprised. This was the first time that the King of Wei there had seen this physical phenomenon and looked at the porcelain bowl under the condensing tank intently.

After a stick of incense, the wine in the bowl was half a bowl.

The wine collection in the Prince of Wei’s Mansion itself is the best wine of this era. After purifying this, the wine smells everywhere. Even the Seventh Prince, who is not good at drinking, swallowed his saliva.

Li Xin reached out to bring the bowl of wine, then changed to another pottery jar, then poured a small cup from the wine bowl and handed it to the Seventh Prince.

"Your Highness, try it?"

The leader must first do everything. This is an eternal rule. Although the Seventh Prince was very polite to Li Xin, Li Xin knew very well that in the future, His Highness the King of Wei would be his leader.

Ji Wen nodded, reached out to take the wine glass, raised his head and drank it all.

A spicy scent hits the throat.

The Seventh Prince coughed violently and complained.

This kind of distilled spirit is at least about 70 degrees, and usually needs to be blended again. Ji Wen is used to drinking ordinary low-alcohol wine. After drinking one sip, he will naturally suffer a little.

He took a few deep breaths before he calmed down and sighed: "What a strong wine!"

Li Xin also poured himself a cup and took a sip.

It looks like about seventy degrees.

Because the equipment is simple, it is difficult to produce high-purity wine. It is already amazing to have seventy degrees of wine.

Li Xin turned his head and glanced at the Seventh Prince whose face was already slightly red, and chuckled softly: "Your Highness, how about this wine?"

Although Ji Wen drank some wine, his mind was still clear. He shook his head gently: "This wine is too strong, and people nowadays may not be used to drinking it for a while."

Li Xin was confident and said softly: "This wine is a bit strong, but it will be just right after mixing it up. Your Highness, don't worry, since this thing has been made, I have a way to sell it."

Li Xin narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "According to the old gentleman who taught the Dharma, the steamed spirit wine is used to clean the wound and can prevent external evil from entering the body!"

The so-called external evil entering the body is actually a wound infection. This era lacks effective disinfection methods. Therefore, in ancient times, many people fought with others and died after lying home for a few months.

Most of them die of wound infections and tetanus.

After having high wine, this problem is easy to solve.

Ji Wen's eyes lit up: "Is Brother Xin true?"

“It’s true.”

Li Xin lowered his head and said, "Your Highness can send some to the army for trial first. After it is effective, the Ministry of War can purchase this kind of liquor on a large scale. As for the private sale, I will leave it to me."

The Ministry of War is responsible for the promotion and transfer of military generals and the distribution of equipment in the military. Things like spirits should also be considered military supplies.

As for private sales, it is even simpler. Li Xin did this in his previous life. For him, it would be easier to sell such a rare product at a high price.

His Highness, the King of Wei, was excited at first, and finally frowned: "But the Ministry of War is in the hands of the Fourth Brother, his level may not be easy."

Only then did Li Xin remember that the fourth prince Ji Huan who stopped him during the day also had the position of Minister of War!

Captain Li narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, as long as this thing can save people, no one can stop it from entering the army."
