Chapter 2098 First Titan Liquor Brew
"Young Mistress, would this price be raised too high? Would the old customers leave if they saw the price?"
When Mala saw the new liquor pricing put on the wall, she could not help but question it.
The 30-year-old Titan Liquor brew was priced at 3000 copper coins a bottle and 999 copper coins a cup
This was currently the only liquor on the drinks' menu.
There were other side dishes with no changes in pricing.
However, Eiffie had changed their supplier recently, and had higher standards for the taste.
"Currently, only we have this liquor. On top of that, the liquor will decrease the more we sell it. The price might be a little higher, but that should not be a problem." Eiffie shook her head slightly. She sighed, and said, "As for the regulars, they can only wait for me to brew the Titan Liquor and wait for the launch of a shorter-year Titan Liquor brew." "If we sell out all 50 bottles a day, we will be able to reach 150,000 copper coins in a day's revenue!" Mala's eyes lit up.
"All you think about is money. Clean the tavern up quickly. We are officially opening for business tonight," Eiffie said angrily as she smacked Mala's head.
"Alright!" Mala ran to a corner to pick up the broom.
Eiffie looked at the brand-new tavern, and smiled gladly. From today onwards, Titan Tavern finally returned. She had knocked down the wall separating the next shop, and expanded Titan Tavern by two times so that the tavern, which could only hold around 20 tables before, could now fit 50 tables of customers.
Maybe many had forgotten that other than Mag, Eiffie also owned the shops on almost half of Romo Street.
Back when Titan Tavern was in its heyday, her father's favorite pastime was to buy shops.
Other than Romo Street, she had many shops around Rodu.
If it were not for her passion, she would only have to go around in a horse-drawn carriage to collect rent, and would not have to coop herself up in the brewery.
After looking around the tavern, Eiffie returned to the brewery behind the tavern.
The distillation equipment after Mag's revamp utilized coal, which could last longer, as fuel. On top of that, Eiffie did not have to keep a constant watch on it during the distillation process, and just had to check on its progress. That simplified the distillation process significantly.
The grape essence evaporated in the distillation equipment after it was fermented. The vaporized essence then flowed through a long tube into the wine storage, and condensed into an almost transparent liquid.
In the past, the entire brewery would be full of steam when she brewed wine, and the wine fragrance would be wafting everywhere. Now, there was almost no steam escaping in the brewery, and all the essence was retained in the best way.
Ding!
A crisp indicator sounded.
Eiffie, who was deep in thought, was stunned for a while. After that, she recalled that she had to close the air valve to the stove to put out the fire.
The first Titan Liquor brew with the new apparatus was finally out.
Eiffie was full of excitement and anticipation.
The pressure indicated on the pressure valve decreased, and when the pressure was completely balanced, Eiffie brought a cup over to the tap at the wine storage, and turned the tap on. Clear and transparent liquid gushed out, together with a strong alcohol fragrance. "Success!" Eiffie was elated.
This fragrance was exactly the same as what she had smelled back then when she had been playing while her father had brewed wine.
This was also what she had been looking for and trying to create for the past decade with nothing but failure to show for it.
She did not expect that she would successfully brew the authentic Titan Liquor after Mr. Hades changed the brewing apparatus and simplified the procedure.
"It's a success! Young Mistress, it's a success!" Mala, who just walked into the brewery, exclaimed.
"This is only half the success. Titan Liquor without at least two years of storage is without a soul." Eiffie shook her head, and said, "Mala, go and retrieve the oak barrel. I want to make this brewed wine into a qualified Titan Liquor before transferring it into the barrel." "Alright," Mala replied. By the time the first barrel of Titan Liquor was all filled into the oak barrel, it was already three in the afternoon.
"Young Mistress, this is too heavy. We won't be able to move it." Mala patted the oak barrel that was almost her height. This was a supersized barrel that could fill 300 bottles.
"Leave it here first. I'll get someone over to help move it into the cellar tomorrow." Eiffie wiped the perspiration on her forehead with a silk handkerchief. She looked at the clothes that were soaked in perspiration with dismay, and said, "I am going to wash and change. After that, I'll take a break before opening the tavern at night."
"I'll boil some water for you," Mala replied.
***
On the first day after Titan Tavern and Saipan Tavern both won the gold award, they stood everyone up, which became an incident that all wine-lovers would diss.
However, precisely because everyone did not even get a sip of water, the two taverns seemed even more mysterious, and attracted more curiosity.
Some rumors about Saipan Tavern also started spreading as well.
Among them was news that Duke Abraham and Princess Vanessa were regulars of this tavern. The identity of the tavern owner was rather mysterious.
hers
While everyone was curious about Maotai, they also secretly reminded themselves to be careful at Saipan Tavern. Before nightfall, there were already customers pacing around the tavern doors. However, as though the two taverns had discussed it, both doors were still tightly shut, and did not appear to be ready for business. Those who came early could not help but complain.
Eiffie looked at the eight service staff members from Titan Tavern, and said solemnly, "Today is the first day of Titan Tavern's opening. It is also the first day we've upgraded into a high-class tavern. All of you, buck up. No mistakes are allowed."
"Yes," everyone replied.
At the same time, in Saipan Tavern.
Mag looked at the increasing number of customers outside with a frown, and said, "It looks like our tavern should start hiring service staff. Otherwise, we won't be able to cope with the number of customers. We also have to find someone to operate the tavern when we leave in the future."
"Do you need me to arrange some manpower from the Night Elves?" Irina asked.
"No. This is Rodu. We have to hire humans." Mag shook his head. Not every elf could disguise themselves, and it would be easier to find staff in Rodu.
"I'll be going to the Wind Forest tonight. I'll leave this place to you." Irina placed her bowl down, wiped her mouth elegantly, and smiled.
"Er…" Mag looked at the crowd outside, and could already imagine how chaotic it would be.
