The twelve batches of wine brewed in front were not satisfactory and were all rejected by Yang Chengye.

  This is already the thirteenth time, Yang Chengye said this time must be successful.

  "Brother!"

  At this time, Shen You came to Yang Chengye who was waiting for the wine and said: "Today is the last day of mother's funeral, you go, I can guard here."

  Yang Chengye smiled and shook his head, saying: "It's okay, we're only dismantling it tomorrow, no need to be so anxious."

  "Old man, look quickly, wine is coming out!"

  At this time, Housekeeper Fu Bo pointed at a wine jar and said loudly.

  Guan Jia Fu Bo is an old man with only one arm.

  At that time, Shen You saw him wandering alone and gave him some silver and dry food to return home. However, Fu Bo said he had no home to return to. Shen You was kind-hearted and kept him in Gangzi Village.

  Fu Bo volunteered to become a slave in the Shen family to repay their kindness, and he ended up staying for over 20 years.

  Upon hearing this, Yang Chengye and Shen You looked at the wine jar together, only to see a drop of fragrant wine dripping from the distiller into the wine jar.

  Shen You hastily stepped forward and took a bowl of wine, tilting his head back to drink it down.

  Shen You swallowed the wine and closed his eyes, savoring it carefully.

  As soon as the wine enters the mouth, a fragrance fills the oral cavity, and it goes down smoothly into the throat. Then it transforms into a warm current flowing into the stomach, instantly making the whole body feel comfortable and relaxed.

  After a long time, Shen You slowly opened his eyes and stared at Yang Chengye without blinking.

  "Brother, brother, are you sure this is wine and not divine liquor?"

  Shen You stuttered and asked Yang Chengye.

  Yang Chengye frowned and said, "What's wrong with that?"

  Yang Chengye said as he also took a bowl and drank it all in one gulp.

  "Hmm, this time it's right, Nv Hong is exactly this flavor!" Yang Chengye muttered to himself.

  "Brother, this is my first time drinking such good wine. Is this the Hundred-Year-Old Immortal Wine you were talking about?"

  Shen You couldn't resist the temptation and took another bowl, drinking it all in one gulp.

  Yang Chengye nodded and said: "Yes, this is the Hundred Year Immortal."

  "Brother, just give the order and let them brew according to the method I mentioned earlier."

  "It's alright, don't worry."

  Shen You said as he pushed Yang Chengye out, "You're also nagging, go take a look at your mother."

  Yang Chengye left the wine workshop and headed towards Shen's residence. Even after walking a considerable distance, he could still hear Shen You's shouts, which were nothing more than "be careful", "be clever", and "this is the treasure of the Shen family" and so on.

  Yang Chengye smiled and shook his head, saying: "It's just a wine, why look at it like a treasure?"

  At that time, the Huai River burst its banks, and all the houses and fields downstream were submerged. Countless people lost their homes and fled south to escape the disaster.

  Since ancient times, the lower reaches of the Huai River and the Yellow River have been extremely difficult to govern. Every few years, they would burst their banks, flooding villages and good fields, which became a heart disease for rulers of all generations.

  The refugees from the lower reaches of the Huai River intentionally or unintentionally headed towards Lin'an, and Jiaxing was a must-pass place to go to Lin'an.

  At the same time, the Jiaxing prefect also received an imperial edict from the emperor, ordering him to stop the refugees in Jiaxing and not allow them to take a step beyond Leichi Pond, otherwise he would lose his position as prefect.

  Jiaxing Prefect Wang An was a true scholar, a jinshi (a successful candidate in the highest imperial examination) by origin, who was demoted to be a county magistrate and later promoted to be a prefect.

  Although Wang An loved money, he would not take it by force or robbery, but only accepted some gifts. In his own words, "a gentleman loves wealth, but takes it in a proper way." He was nicknamed "sour Confucian" by other officials.

  Wang An hesitated after receiving the notice, he didn't know what to do, blocking the refugees, those refugees were too pitiful, all of them had families and children, struggling to make ends meet.

  If it is not blocked, it will be disobedient and will be dismissed from office, which is a light punishment. There will also be an outbreak of plague.

  At this time he thought of Shen You, Shen You as his distant relative, doing business is a good hand, and his vision is also beyond ordinary people.

  Wang An immediately sent someone to contact Shen You and asked him to hurry to the prefectural government office.

  At this time, Shen You was checking accounts at home, with Fu Bo standing beside him. In front of him were four shopkeepers, each responsible for a different branch of the Shen family's business.

  One was in charge of his paddy fields, one was in charge of his tea garden, one was in charge of his salt business, and the other was in charge of his wine shop.

  For this month, the rice fields, tea gardens and salt business have not changed much, still as stable as ever, but the newly opened wine house is different.

  The person in charge of the wine shop's business was a man named Pan Yi, nearly fifty years old, with a spirited and radiant complexion.

  Pan Yi reported to Shen You with some excitement: "Master, our wine shop's total income for the past month is 50,000 guan. After deducting expenses of 5,000 guan, the net income is 45,000 guan. Moreover, there are still some returns that have not been collected yet. If all of them are collected, the net profit should be around 60,000 guan."

  "What?"

  "This is impossible!"

  "How can there be so many?"

  "It's impossible for the entire Jiaxing Prefecture to collect 50,000 guan in a month; at most it would be 20-30,000 guan."

  "Lao Pan, you didn't miscalculate, did you?"

  Upon hearing this, the other three shopkeepers exclaimed in surprise, and even Fu Bo looked at Pan Yi in disbelief.

  Pan Yi glanced at the other three shopkeepers and said, "I, Old Pan, have been managing Shen's business for so many years, has there ever been a mistake?"

  "The accounts of the wine shop are all with the old master, don't believe me go ask the old master."

  After hearing Pan Yi's words, all three shopkeepers looked at Shen You, hoping that Shen You could refute Pan Yi's words.

  But what disappointed them was that Shen You still had a smile on his face, as if all of this was within his expectations.

  Shen You just said: "I already know the situation, and it's within my expectation that the wine tower can have so much profit."

  "Now what we need to do is send someone out to buy medicine, who do you think should go?"

  Upon hearing this, the four shopkeepers were astonished. The Shen family had never been involved in the medicine business before, so why would Master Shen suddenly have a craving to purchase medicinal herbs?

  Shen You took out a piece of paper, on which were densely written many medicinal materials. Wu Neng was in charge of the salt business and had been an apprentice in a pharmacy when he was young.

  Wu took the paper from Shen You's hand and glanced at it roughly, saying: "Master, these are all ordinary medicinal materials. What is the use of collecting these medicinal materials?"

  Shen You shook his head and said, "I don't know about this either. It was Second Brother who asked me to take it in. In any case, listening to him is always right."

  Everyone knows that Shen You has a sworn brother, and the business of the wine house relies on this person.

  Wu Nai said: "Since it's like this, let me go then, I have some knowledge of medicinal herbs."

  Shen You nodded and said: "Alright, you go. Be sure to follow the names and quantities listed above. If Jiaxing City is not enough, go to Ningbo or Quanzhou."

  He sent away the four shop assistants and hastily went to the backyard.

  At this time, in the backyard of the Shen family, Wu Ruolan's room was packed with people, all waiting for the moment to witness a miracle.
