Li Ye asked Yan Shen to go to Zhujiazhuang, the suburbs of the city to customize white porcelain jade bottles, each with a capacity of half a pound.

The kilns in Zhujiazhuang are not as good as those in the official kilns, but they are all famous in this generation. There is no jade bottle in this era, so Li Ye asked him to bring the drawings to pass by. The craftsmanship is not difficult, and they are required to arrive within two days because the New Year is coming.

The jade bottle has a smooth and elegant appearance, giving people a high-end and unparalleled feeling.

The so-called "people rely on clothes and Buddha rely on gold" and the gorgeous but elegant packaging is half the success of high-end products. Scarcity is precious, and a few people can see at a glance that "sparse" people are, so people should feel that they are sparse in packaging.

Psychologically speaking, product packaging must be connected with the consumer's purchasing psychology and reflect the product's characteristics. Color is a key. The best color to match with a clear distilled liquor is pure white or light green, which can reflect the strict color of the original color that gives people a strong impact. Dessert packaging is best for orange, and orange gives people a sweet psychological hint, etc.

Li Ye was going to sell the distilled liquor in Tingyu Building, and he dared to sell it for ten taels of silver with half a pound of one bottle and packaging.

Ten taels are ten thousand people, not a small amount, but Li Ye just dares because he knows that someone can afford it. The price of distilled liquor will gradually drop in the future, but as the first person to eat crabs, he can eat delicious food that no one else can eat.

The reason why it is raised to such a high price is to make people feel that it is rare, and the customers are also divided into batches. He monopolizes resources so he can come calmly, first earn money from high-end customers, then earn money from everyone, and do not have to worry about it step by step. This is the first benefit of trying to get started.

There are still ninety kilograms of wine mixed in the wine cellar, which can hold about 180 bottles. If you can buy them all, it will be 1800 taels. It just so happens that the gifts for the New Year are one of the best New Year gifts, and they are not sold all of them. Some of them are used as favors.

During the Chinese New Year, Degong's house must give it to him, and the emperor in the palace pretended to give it to him. Later, the Queen Mother's birthday was his nominal guardian Li Yu, his cousin Li Yu, etc.

To be fair, his uncle Li Yu is his nominal guardian. Although he is a prodigal son and is not responsible, he is really good to him. After the last time, the story of "The Story of the Storm on November 4" spread, many people symbolically came to the door to give gifts, and Li Yu directly sent three thousand taels of silver.

Maybe he felt guilty and felt sorry for him and didn't take good care of him. But to be fair, Li Xingzhou's bastard's temper is not comparable to an ordinary naughty child. No one can bear it. Three thousand taels can be said to be a huge sum of money for him, a idle prince. Giving so much at once may be a great burden for him.

Although he was not very capable, he was behind the scenes of the Tian family in the west of Jing. His mother was a virtuous concubine in the palace, and he was from the Tian family. In the capital, there was the famous Fumenglou in Kyoto and the top poems. He was the beauty Li Xingzhou had thought about day and night.

Not to mention that the Tian family has a great career, even the Fumeng Tower is enough for him to enjoy the glory and become a idle prince. He has to come to the door in person if he has time to thank him.

......

Zhao Si was very quick to do things. In a few days, he found five craftsmen for Li Ye, two of them carpenters and three blacksmiths. The largest one was only thirty-one, and the youngest was a blacksmith named Tie Niu. This year, they were only nineteen. Their family has been blacksmiths for generations, so they took Tie as their surname. This kid was thinner than other peers since he was a child, so he named him Niu, hoping that he would become stronger in the future. Unfortunately, the young man did not become much stronger, and he was much thinner than his brothers at home.

Li Ye first conducted a simple psychological test on them, which was to test their obedience. After all, the reason why Li Ye recruited them was that these blacksmiths could give up their proud craftsmanship in the future and learn to use hydraulic forging thumps. If there is no obedience, there is no need to continue to cultivate them.

The test was very simple. Li Ye met them one by one and then didn't talk. However, he arranged several guards dressed as ordinary people in the wing room where he met, so that the blacksmith thought they were also other craftsmen. Then he coughed and the guards cooperated and stood up, and then coughed and sat down. This was repeated. After seeing many times, the craftsmen who did not know would cooperate to stand up or sit down.

This psychological test can clearly see the potential obedience of a person's heart. Many things are subconscious and can only be easily revealed without knowing it. Li Ye needs to eliminate craftsmen who do not obey because what he wants to instill will cause a rebound, and he does not want that kind of risk.

The result was unexpectedly good, the arduous living environment and the desire for survival made everyone obey.

The first thing Li Ye asked them to do was to make wine cages, the blacksmith started to build pots, and Yan Chai was responsible for making stoves. He re-planned the entire palace, and a total of six wine stoves were formed in the abandoned backyard.

In other words, in this wasteland courtyard, you can open six-bit stoves at a time to make wine at the same time. After gaining experience in experimental production, each wine cage is made larger than before, and you can hold about 350 kilograms of grain. Each time you produce wine, it is estimated that about 120 kilograms, and a total of about 700 kilograms of six-bit stoves will be around 700 kilograms at a time.

If the production capacity is increased in the future, the courtyard wall behind the rear can be pushed down and expanded. The back of the palace is a barren mountain, which is very convenient. At the same time, Li Ye asked someone to knock down the east wall of the barren courtyard and make a road to connect it with the original winery. The original winery can be used as a fermentation room.

Several craftsmen were masters, and hundreds of servants from the royal family were responsible for command. At present, the labor force was still sufficient. But the white silver was like running water. Six stoves were twelve pots, including water-cooled tanks, wine cages, yard floor reinforcement, rain-proof ceiling installation required wood, stone, iron, and asphalt for the stove. Qiuer roughly calculated it for him. It required more than 900 taels of silver, including eating, drinking, defecation and sap.

Li Ye felt so distressed, but he couldn't help but complain about things like tar.

He went to the workshop where the asphalt sold, and finally understood that the so-called asphalt is the lime paste formed by soaking lime in water and soaking it for more than a month. It takes a long time and labor-intensive time, so it is expensive, and its adhesiveness is not comparable to cement at all.

Removing wood and iron, the asphalt that is not as good as cement, costs the most money, which makes Li Ye unable to help but complain. It seems that if there is hydraulic power in the future, you must find a way to use cement.
