    After handing over the five thousand soldiers outside the city to Huo Jun, Liu Cong and Ma Liang returned to the city.

    Shen Dan's prefect's mansion was very large. Although Liu Cong and Deng Ai both lived there, they did not have many family members or followers, and Ma Liang was alone, so they also lived in the prefect's mansion.

    In terms of internal affairs, Ma Liang was indeed a great talent. After taking over the affairs of Shangyong, he began to operate efficiently and promoted some lower-level officials. Not only the team of the Prefecture was built, but also the county magistrates and county magistrates of Fangling and Xicheng counties.  The lieutenants and county magistrates are also fully equipped, and Shangyong's development can be said to be changing with each passing day.

    Liu Cong can finally take some time off and spend more time with his mother, Ms. Cai.  Although he only occupied Liu Cong's body, blood must be thicker than water. After several months, his feelings for his mother Cai became deeper and deeper.

    "Mother, why are you sad? Do you miss Xiangyang?" Liu Cong asked after seeing Cai's occasional sadness.

    "Cong'er, do you know what day it is today?"

    "Today?" Liu Cong thought for a moment. It must be an important day for his mother to remember, but what would it be?  It¡¯s not the right day for my father¡¯s memorial day!  My father has only been ill for more than half a year. Apart from that, what other important dates can there be?  "My child doesn't know, please mother, please tell me clearly."

    "Today was the day you and Yu'er got married!"

    "Huh?" Liu Cong then remembered that he had already made an engagement with his mother's niece Cai Yu.

    In this era, close relatives like this often get married. In fact, the Cai family is the largest family in Jingzhou. Although Cai Yu is her mother's niece, the blood relationship is far away.

    Originally, their wedding was scheduled a few months ago, but their father Liu Biao suddenly died of illness. According to the custom at the time, he should observe mourning for three years. However, Liu Cong wanted to inherit the position of state pastor, so he changed it to half a year, and the day of getting married was pushed to today.

    "I hate that thief Cao, who caused us, mother and son, to become mediocre. Yu'er doesn't know what's going on now?"

    "How?" Liu Cong suddenly felt sour in his heart. Cai Yu is a famous beauty in Jingzhou, and Cao Cao is a famous wife-controller. His favorite is a married woman. Although Cai Yu is not married yet, if Cao Cao knows that it is me, Liu  How can you let Cong's fianc¨¦e go?  Now I'm afraid Liu Cong will feel more and more uncomfortable the more he thinks about it.

    "There is no need to suffer, Cong'er. I will arrange another marriage for you. For such a mediocre person, I don't believe that I can't find a suitable one!" Looking at the expression on Liu Cong's face, her mother, Mrs. Cai, obviously understood it wrong.

    "Mother, I don't want to think about marriage yet. I must take back Jingzhou and return to Xiangyang within half a year!"

    "Okay, my son has such great ambitions, I am very happy for my mother. After returning to Xiangyang, I will find a good woman from the right family for my mother, and marry Cong'er in a glorious manner."

    "My son has some official duties, so I have to take my leave! Mother, please take care of yourself!"

    "Cong'er, go and do your work!"

    When Liu Cong returned to his residence, the soldiers sent some information.

    After more than a month, Ma Zhong's Skynet Camp has already formed a preliminary team and started to operate. Xiangyang, Jiangxia, Yuzhang and other places are no longer in the Skynet Camp, although the information sent is not an important secret.  , but Liu Cong was still very satisfied with the speed of transmission.

    Liu Bei and Cao Cao bickered about their life and death issues, but Liu Cong had no interest. Cao Cao issued a war plan to Jiangdong, Sun Quan invited Zhou Yu back, Lu Su crossed the river to Jiangxia to meet Liu Bei, and then went to Jiangdong with Zhuge Liang. Everything was in accordance with  The trajectory of history is ongoing.

    The Battle of Chibi was a famous war that affected the direction of Chinese history. When Liu Cong thought about it, he felt extremely hot inside. He wanted to see Zhuge Liang, Zhou Yu, and the elites of Lu Su's era, as well as Guan Yu and Zhang Zhang.  Fei, Zhao Yun and other top generals in the world, watch Zhuge Liang argue with the Confucian scholars, borrow arrows from straw boats, watch how Zhou Yu implements the serial plan, the torture plan, and even sets fire to Sanjiangkou, etc.

    But he quickly gave up this idea, fearing that his butterfly would flap its wings gently and change history. He was still too weak now. His only advantage was that he knew the direction of history and could accurately seize the opportunity.  , so he has to be extra careful. Even if he changes history, he will have to do it after he captures Jingzhou.

    After reading this information, Liu Cong locked himself in the house again and began his next plan.

    For five whole days, except for the maid who brought food, everyone else was blocked out.  Ma Liang wanted to come in several times to report some situations, but was blocked by soldiers because Liu Cong had death orders.

    What is Liu Cong doing?

    He turned out to be studying winemaking!

      The ancient wine-making method can be said to have made a qualitative leap by the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. However, for future generations, this wine is still called water wine or rice wine. The concentration is not high and it does not have that sweet taste.

    ??And Liu Cong is now going to introduce a new method, that is, distillation and artificial fermentation.

    First, the grains are fried, then the koji is made, and then filtered multiple times at different temperatures. In this way, the turbid wine can become clear and mellow.

    Although this method was popular in the Tang and Song Dynasties, it is completely achievable with today's technology, but people's thinking at that time had not yet developed to that point.

    So in the past few days, Liu Cong sorted out the entire brewing process based on what he remembered. The most important thing was to draw drawings of all the required utensils, some made of wood, some made of iron, and some made of ceramics.  Fired.  After all this was done, Liu Cong felt relieved and then left the room.

    "Come here, find various craftsmen and a few brewers immediately. If you are good at it, come to the Prefect's Mansion!"

    "No!"

    Liu Cong personally gave the order, and the soldiers worked very quickly. In less than an hour, all the people in need were found, more than twenty people.

    Nowadays, everyone in Shangyong respects Liu Cong very much, so if he wants to find someone, he will definitely have a lot of people.

    Liu Cong gathered all the craftsmen together, took the drawings, and talked for a long time. Then they slowly understood and went to build it individually.

    Then he gathered a dozen winemakers together and explained his methods to these people.

    These people have rich experience in making wine. Although Liu Cong¡¯s method is different from their traditional methods, they quickly understood the advanced nature of this method, so they were very interested and began to prepare.

    Ten days later, all the utensils were delivered to the governor's house, and the brewing of new wine began.

    Under the guidance of Liu Cong using the experience of later generations, the speed was very fast.

    A month later, the first vat of wine was finally brewed.

    When everyone opened the lid of the wine tank and saw the newly brewed wine after three high-temperature filtrations, all the masters cheered.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
