Chapter 285: Winemaking

……

"I originally wanted to verify it and then report the good news to the boss!" Han Kun nodded with a smile. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Let's go, take me to see it!"

Wang Zheng's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly helped Han Kun push the cart into the warehouse, and then came from the freight elevator to the twenty-meter-deep underground, which was ten meters wide and could make the two cars run side by side. The two of them got out of the elevator, carried the apples in the cart onto the minivan next to them, and then under the drive of Han Kun, after driving in the passage for nearly twenty minutes, their eyes lit up.

The valley is huge, closed all around, and the green Monkey Valley of the mountains appears in front of Wang Zheng again. However, compared to the time when he first came, there has been a change in the Monkey Valley.

Among them, on the left side of the tunnel entrance, a row of huge factory buildings has been erected. The factory building is built on the mountain, made of hard rock, strong and tall.

When Han Kun parked the car in the square of nearly 500 square meters in front of the factory, several middle-aged people who were dressed similarly to Han Kun walked out of the factory.

"Boss!"

"Boss, are you here?"

"Hmm! come and see what you've been doing for days!"

Wang Zheng jumped down from the co-pilot and helped unload the car!

"Boss, leave this work to them, I'll take you in and have a look!" Han Kun said.

"That's right, boss, it's just a dozen baskets of apples, leave it to us!"

"That's hard work!"

Wang Zheng, who was curious, did not refuse, and followed Han Kun into the huge factory building next to him, which was 100 meters long, 10 meters high and nearly 40 meters wide. The factory has two floors, and the middle is divided into different spaces. At the place where Wang Zheng entered the door was an office space of nearly 100 square meters.

"Boss, change this outfit!"

Looking at a blue suit similar to a chemical protective suit handed over by Han Kun, Wang Zheng did not refuse, and took it and put it on himself.

"Your side, please!"

Under the guidance of Han Kun, the two passed through several portals and came to a huge factory building with 5,000 square meters. In the clean workshop, Wang Zheng clearly saw that a large number of apples, apricots, grapes, lemons and other hundreds of species, including almost all kinds of fruits in the Passion Valley, were chopped and ground after three rinsing processes, and injected into large silver-white steel cans that were six meters high and three meters wide!

There are fifty large steel cans all over the huge factory, and the intoxicating smell of fruit fills the air.

"This is the factory where you brew 'Monkey Drunk'?" After walking around for a while and examining it, Wang Zheng couldn't help but ask.

"Yes! We have just completed the installation and commissioning of these production lines, and we just started production yesterday! I originally wanted to wait for three months later, after the first batch of 'monkey drunk' fruit wine was brewed, and then I went to you to report the good news, but I didn't expect you to come by yourself today!"

"I don't have to wait three months to be in the future, I would have been happy to know earlier...... Okay, now that I'm here. Tell me how you managed to do it, right?"

"Yes!" Han Kun nodded, "Actually, at the beginning, we studied the entire production process of 'Monkey Drunk', but we were always unable to do it. Especially when the fermented 'jade jar' is discarded and the fruit is fermented in ordinary steel or wooden vessels, the final wine is always inferior in taste!"

Wang Zheng nodded, he knew this. In fact, if it weren't for the fact that only the material 'jade' was used as a fermentation vessel, the taste of the 'monkey drunk' fruit wine would never have reached the original level. There are too few large enough jade to be used as a 'jade tank' for fruit wine fermentation.

Wang Zheng dug up all the jade veins in the Monkey Valley, and there were only 24 'jade jars' that could be made into a volume of more than one cubic meter!

These 24 'jade jars' are capable of providing about 15,000 bottles of 750 ml of real 'Monkey Drunk' original wine, which is an average of just over 1,200 bottles per month. This batch of original wine is also the part that Wang Zheng sold last month.

In addition, Wang Zheng used the rest of the large pieces of jade to paste and glue 49 'jade jars', and this batch of 'jade jars' can provide about 40,000 bottles of 'monkey drunk', but unfortunately the taste is slightly worse.

Moreover, this batch of 'monkey drunk' has not really been put into the market because the fermentation time is not enough!

“…… But later we found out that the monkey group used the 'jade jar' fermented monkey drunken fruit wine to use only thirty or forty kinds of fruits, and these wild fruits are generally inferior to the fruits we grow ourselves in taste. Therefore, after using the fruits from our 'Passion Garden', and surpassing the original 'Monkey Drunk' fruit wine in terms of variety and quantity, it was finally fermented in steel and wooden vessels, and it was not inferior to 'Monkey Drunk' in taste, and even more vigorous!"

"That's what you're looking for?"

"That's right!"

"Is there a ready-made one for me to try?"

"We left some left over from our experiments, I'll get them for you!"

"I'll go with you!"

Afterwards, Wang Zheng and Han Kun came to the wine cellar, took out some of the dozen oak wine barrels placed on the shelf, and poured them into the goblet next to them.

"Boss, you can taste it!"

Nodding, Wang Zheng took it and didn't rush to drink. After first putting it on the tip of his nose and smelling it, a mellow fragrance of hundred fruits instantly anesthetized his nerves.

"Smells good!"

After a word of satisfaction and appreciation, Wang Zheng raised his wine glass and took a sip. In an instant, a faint spicy with sweetness, sourness, and slight bitterness, as if the taste of life is a hundred flavors, and as if the taste of a hundred fruits is in the liquor into the throat, infiltrating the heart and spleen, and the aftertaste is endless.

Seeing Wang Zheng close his eyes and not say a word, after a long time, Han Kun said worriedly: "Boss, what do you think?"

After opening his eyes and looking at the other party for a while, Wang Zheng smiled 'haha', patted Han Kun's shoulder and said happily: "Han Kun, I want to thank you, the taste of this 'monkey drunk' is higher than before!"

"It's good that the boss is happy!" Han Kun smiled while breathing a sigh of relief.

Wang Zheng nodded, looking at the slightly viscous pale cyan liquor in the wine glass, and after a little silk, "If you use the fruits of our 'Baixiang Garden', including all kinds and nearly a thousand kinds, to brew the 'Jade Jar' monkey drunk, will the taste be better than now?"

"Of course, we have already tried it, and with the 'jade jar' and the hundred fruits, the taste of the 'monkey drunk' brewed is even better!"

"Is there here?" Wang Zheng's eyes lit up and he hurriedly said.

"Originally, there was, but a few of us couldn't resist the temptation, so we secretly drank the point that we had originally made from the experiment!" Han Kun touched the back of his head and said embarrassedly.

"Boss atonement!"

"Okay, I don't blame you! But, when the next brew comes out, send it to me so I can taste it too!"

"Boss, rest assured. I remember!"

"Oh, by the way! Some time ago, didn't I buy you some Hetian jade, Qinghai jade, and Afghan jade for you to try?

"No!" Han Kun shook his head.

"Can't? Why? It's the same jade, is there anything different about it?"

"It's not the same. Perhaps it is the different geological structures that make the jade in the Monkey Valley structurally quite different from nephrite jade from other regions such as Hetian jade, Qinghai jade, and Dushan jade. For example, the texture of Hetian jade is more compact than that of Monkey Valley, and when the wine is fermented, there is little air circulation and exchange with the outside world, and the taste of the 'monkey wine' is more sour. And the Dushan jade has a large pores, and the 'monkey wine' brewed has a more bland taste, which is also not good!"

"Then there is not one of so many nephrites that is suitable?"

"Is there a closer?"

"What?" Wang Zheng's eyes lit up.

"Lantian Jade!"

As soon as he heard Lantian Yu, the little hope in Wang Zheng's heart was instantly cut by ninety percent.

As the earliest jade mine developed in China, from the Stone Age to the present, Lantian jade has been close to exhaustion. There were also large pieces of jade left for Wang Zheng to make wine barrels.

"Okay, I see, take me to see the 'Jade Jar' on the second floor!"

"Okay, boss, come with me!"

After following Han Kun to look at the entire factory up and down, Wang Zheng left satisfied. Solved the difficulty of mass production of 'Monkey Drunk'. Wang Zheng can almost imagine that the time has come for him to make a lot of money. At that time, the 'monkey drunk' fruit wine is another trump card in his hands that is not inferior to Taoyuanji's 'fruit' and 'beef and mutton'!

……

However, after leaving Han Kun's place where they were making wine, Wang Zheng did not leave the Monkey Valley immediately. Finally found time to come over, Wang Zheng planned to go to see Wukong.

Compared to Simba's loyalty and perseverance. As his first pet, Wukong simply regarded Wang Zheng as a 'Shennong animal-type nutrient solution' ATM.

In addition to regularly exchanging the 'Monkey Drunk' brewed by its monkey group for the 'Shennong Animal Type Nutrient Solution' from Wang Zheng, he usually no longer stays in the mountain villa at all, but spends more time in the Monkey Valley as its mountain king.

No, before Wang Zheng reached what he called the 'Water Curtain Cave', the waterhole he saw when he first came, he had already heard the 'squeak' of countless monkeys.

"When did you get this bluestone road here?"

After a brief look at his feet, the moon was one meter wide, through the bamboo forest, and the stone road extending to the depths, Wang Zheng was a little surprised in his heart. The last time he came, he didn't have that way.

However, after the doubtful thoughts only flashed in his mind, Wang Zheng left them behind. Left and right are not a big deal.

"Roar ......!"

Before Wang Zheng could turn into the bamboo forest, he heard a huge roar full of anger coming from inside.

"Squeak ......!"

This was followed by the high-pitched monkey calls.

"What's going on?"

Wang Zheng's face changed, he didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly quickened his pace and ran along the bluestone road towards the depths of the bamboo forest. You must know that in the depths of this bamboo forest, in addition to Wukong's monkeys, there is also a group of big guys who usually seem cute, but when they get angry, they are just as feared.
