Chapter 75

Jiang Wanbai ate something delicious, and talked about his high sex, so he smiled, "I also heard that the boiling water cabbage looks like a bowl of white water, soaked in a few cabbages, without a little oiliness, as if it has not been cooked, but when you really eat it, you know the beauty of this dish."

The soup is elegant and pure, the vegetables are tender and fresh, not a mountain treasure, but it is better than a mountain treasure. ”

Speaking of which, she didn't sell it, and directly pointed out the secret of boiling water cabbage, "Of course, there is a reason why it is so delicious, and the secret is the soup." The soup is made with scallops, pork ribs, pheasant and other toppings.

Of course, I don't know exactly how to do it, otherwise, maybe I would be able to become an imperial chef. ”

As soon as Jiang Wanbai's last sentence came out, everyone immediately laughed, they didn't take her words to heart at all, there are many rumors in the countryside, and they are also exaggerated, few people will tell whether it is true or false, it is just a saying, a listening, and a pleasure.

However, Tang Shaozheng frowned invisibly, he always felt that what Jiang Wanbai said was not like what he had heard, but as if she had seen it with her own eyes.

See it with your own eyes? Is it possible, of course the answer is impossible, Tang Shaozheng thought about it for a while, and felt that his idea was a bit ridiculous, so he also smiled and threw it aside.

After eating, everyone went to get busy, and this busyness lasted for five days, seeing that the sorghum in the field had become food at home, although everyone was tired, but the smile on their faces could not be hidden.

The next thing to do is threshing the sorghum from the field, which is far easier than harvesting, and everyone is sitting in the yard, talking and busy with the work at hand, and the atmosphere is harmonious.

At this time, Tang Shaozheng was talking about an interesting story with great interest, and everyone listened attentively, even Tian Yinfeng looked at him from time to time, and he was full of energy, telling a simple story of a scholar and a fox spirit, ups and downs, and tearful reads;.

Jiang Wanbai watched from the side, and really admired him a little, after his efforts these days, although Tian Yinfeng didn't say anything, he didn't always avoid him like before, his kung fu of grinding tofu was very effective.

Perhaps, in a few days, the Tian family will have a happy event!

Jiang Wanbai was thinking about it, Lin Xing came, he was also surprised when he saw so many sorghum from the Tian family, and instantly understood that the Tian family's life was not easy. You must know that wealthy families generally grow fine grains such as wheat.

"My aunt's sorghum grows so well, it's so big and so full." Lin Xing praised that he was telling the truth, and it also showed that he was very good at being a man.

Sure enough, as soon as he boasted like this, the people of the Tian family instantly got a lot closer to him, and they all greeted him with a smile.

After being polite, he explained his intention, and invited the people of the Tian family and Tang Shaozheng to his house for dinner at noon, "I have already made an appointment, but my aunt can't help but come." Lin Xing emphasized.

Jiang Wanbai still had something to tell him, so he naturally nodded and agreed, saying that they would definitely go, and Lin Xing left satisfied.

"Second brother, you go to Lin's house with me at noon." Seeing Lin Xing away, Jiang Wanbai said to Tian Laoer.

Although Lin Xing just said that all the people of the Tian family should go, but the two families have not yet become familiar to that extent, the Tian family naturally cannot really do that, otherwise, they will really be laughed at, and they have not seen anyone go to meet their friends, and the whole family is on the ground, especially the Tian family, which has more than a dozen people.

Tian Lao Er nodded in agreement.

Jiang Wanbai looked at Tang Shaozheng and wanted to ask him if he was going.

"I'm not going." Tang Shaozheng glanced at Tian Yinfeng next to him, and said indifferently, the most important thing for him now is not to eat with others.

Jiang Wanbai was not too surprised by his answer, he was not from the same world as them, how could he care about these things, and going to Lin Xing would inevitably remind him of those unpleasant memories, it was better to stay here and continue his plan to chase his wife.

The Lin family, Lin Xing saw that only Jiang Wanbai and Tian Lao Er had come, and they were a little unhappy, shouting that they wanted to invite Tang Shaozheng and the rest of the Tian family.

Jiang Wanbai hurriedly stopped him, and said with a smile: "I'm all the way here, I'm a little hungry, you go and call them again, how much time will it take to come back and forth, besides, when I came out, they were already cooking, maybe by the time you get there, they have already finished eating." ”

When Lin Xing heard Jiang Wanbai say this, he knew what she meant, and did not continue to entangle, but hurriedly welcomed Jiang Wanbai and the two into the house, "Auntie is hungry, just right, the meal has already been prepared, Auntie sit down." ”

Jiang Wanbai was polite twice, then sat down, looked at the table, and found that there were chickens, fish, and meat, and a table full of dishes, she quickly thanked Lin Xing, and invited him to have time to go to their house for dinner.

Lin Xing naturally agreed, and after that, everyone began to eat.

After eating, the main event finally came, Jiang Wanbai said to Lin Xing: "There is something I want to ask you for help, but I don't know ......"

"My aunt is polite to me, don't say help, even if my aunt wants my life, I won't say a word." Lin Xing said with some excitement.

Jiang Wanbai also saw that he was a person who was affectionate and trustworthy, so he stopped talking nonsense, "You also saw it today, we have a lot of sorghum in our house, and I want you to help us make sorghum into wine." ”

After Jiang Wanbai finished speaking, she looked at Lin Xing's expression, she was really afraid that Lin Xing would think that she was going to rob him of his business, or covet the Lin family's ancestral wine-making technology or something, so she had prepared several plans for this.

However, unexpectedly, Lin Xing didn't take this matter seriously at all, "What should I do, it turned out to be this matter." I'm afraid my aunt doesn't know that our family often helps others make wine. Lin Xing said with a smile.

"What's going on?" Jiang Wanbai was a little strange, he sold wine himself, how could he still help others make wine, didn't that cut off his business.

"Auntie doesn't know this, brewing is very expensive food, and our family doesn't have enough food to grow themselves, so we have to buy it, which is a lot of money.

And this sake brewing is not like cooking, it can be sold as soon as it is done, from brewing to fermentation, and then to the sake brewing, there is still a long time in between, and during this time, our money is equivalent to being trapped in it.

Sometimes, as soon as the wine is made, the grain is cheaper, so we can only reduce the price, or continue to wait, in short, there is a lot of uncertainty.

But it's different to help people brew, they provide food, I work, and in a few days, I can get a sum of money, which is easy and worry-free. Lin Xing explained.

"Moreover, compared to the people who buy wine, people who choose to make wine, generally make more at a time, I calculate the money according to the number of wine, the more I brew, the more I earn, so this comparison, in fact, than my own wine and wine, I make a lot of money."

"Then you're not afraid that those people will sell the brewed wine and affect your family's business?" Jiang Wanbai asked.

"It's all made by me, but everyone is used to buying from me, so naturally they won't buy from someone else, unless he is willing to lower the price.

However, aunt, you have also seen that I don't make much money from this wine, and if they reduce the price, they won't make much money, since they don't make money, what's the point of them doing this. ”

Speaking of this, Lin Xing leaned over to Jiang Wanbai's side and whispered, "Of course, I'm not defenseless. Don't hide it from my aunt, in fact, I also pay attention, I usually take business only those small orders, at first glance, it is the kind that I keep at home to drink, if someone asks me to make a large amount of wine, unless it is an acquaintance, otherwise I will definitely push it off. ”

It turned out that there were still these twists and turns here, and Jiang Wanbai suddenly realized.

"I have packed the wine of my aunt's house, and in a few days, when it is convenient for my aunt, I will bring those sorghums, and when I make it, I will send the wine back to my aunt." Speaking of this, Lin Xing hesitated for a moment and continued, "But there is one thing, I want to persuade my aunt."

My aunt brewed so much wine, she must have wanted to sell it, but this year's flood in the south, this grain is not cheap, rather than making wine and putting it in the cellar, it is better to store the grain, waiting for when the price is good, and it is cost-effective to sell it. ”

Of course, Lin Xing had good intentions when he said this, but Jiang Wanbai had already made a plan, "What I want to brew is not an ordinary wine, but a medicinal wine, called Wujiapi." ”

When it comes to winemaking, Jiang Wanbai has been thinking about it, if it is just a simple brew of sorghum wine, just like Lin Xing just said, she has no advantage at all, not to mention whether this wine can be sold, even if it can be sold, it will definitely not make much money, and when the time comes, the sorghum will be gone, and there will be no money, so won't the Tian family starve.

This process, just like the raw materials and semi-finished products exported by China, goes around to foreign countries, and people easily process them, and when the thing is sold back to China, the price will increase several times.

What Jiang Wanbai wants to do now is a one-stop process, which not only makes money from raw materials, but also makes money from processing.

As for why she thought of making this five-plus leather wine, it is only because this wine recipe is very common in modern times, just like her hometown, because of the climate, many families will use this recipe to make wine, and even because of its wide application, several recipes have been derived.

Of course, this can't rule out the reason why Jiang Wanbai only remembers the recipe of this wine, if she knew the recipe of Wuliangye or Moutai, maybe, she wouldn't make any shrimp paste, and would have changed to make wine.

After all, Wujiapi wine is more inclined to medicine, rather than wine, a small glass a day is enough, and sales are limited, but Wuliangye or Moutai is different, if you can...... When you think about it, you know it's impossible.

"Wujiapi is a kind of herb, right?" Lin Xing asked.

Jiang Wanbai nodded, Wujiapi, "Compendium of Materia Medica" recorded: "Replenish the middle and benefit the qi, strengthen the muscles and bones, strengthen the will, wear for a long time and bear the age", the folk even think that "it is better to have a handful of five plus, not to be full of gold and jade", which shows the effect of this thing.

"Medicinal wine, don't hide it from my aunt, in fact, our family will make some medicinal wine ourselves, but few people will buy it, our family brew is purely for ourselves to drink, or to give to relatives and friends." Lin Xing hesitated for a moment and said this.

In the countryside, it is not easy to eat, everyone spends money to buy wine, and in order to satisfy their hunger, they will only buy the cheapest wine, how can they spend money on medicinal wine.

Of course, Jiang Wanbai understood this truth, but from the beginning, she didn't want to sell this wine to the villagers in the vicinity, she aimed at those who were rich.

This Wujiapi wine is also famous in history, Emperor Jiaqing relied on it to cure the disease of wind evil and dampness, and Qianlong even sealed this wine as the imperial wine of the palace, then, in this Dali Dynasty, she can also look forward to it, not expecting it to bring great wealth and wealth, but can exchange some rice and white flour to eat, her purpose has also been achieved.

However, Jiang Wanbai would not say these words to Lin Xing, "I have my own plans for this matter."

I really found the right person this time. In fact, I only know the recipe of this medicinal material, as for how to make medicinal wine, what is the difference between it and ordinary wine, but I don't know at all, since you have brewed it, it is much simpler. Jiang Wanbai said happily.

Jiang Wanbai didn't say what she had planned, Lin Xing naturally wouldn't continue to ask without a smile, just said that everything was wrapped in him, and finally, he also proposed that when it was time to add medicinal materials, let Jiang Wanbai do it, after all, this was Jiang Wanbai's recipe, and he didn't have any covetous intentions.

He thought thoughtfully, Jiang Wanbai naturally nodded and agreed, and the matter was settled, and Jiang Wanbai had prepared a lot of rhetoric before, but it was useless, which made her regret it, if she knew that it was so simple, she wouldn't waste that brain cell.

So, intelligence is really important, both modern and ancient.

After talking for a while, Jiang Wanbai got up and said goodbye, of course Lin Xing kept again, but in the end, Jiang Wanbai still left with Tian Laoer.

On the way, Tian Lao Er was holding the cow and asked Jiang Wanbai a little sullenly, "Mother, let's make this wine, we should be able to make money, right?" ”

It's not that Tian Lao Er doesn't believe Jiang Wanbai, it's just that this sorghum is the family's food for a year, and if there is anything wrong, they will starve.

It is difficult for people who have never been hungry to imagine the feeling of being hungry with their chests against their backs, and even Guanyin soil can be eaten, and unfortunately, Tian Lao Er is the kind of person who knows, so he can't help but worry.

You know, it's easy to turn this grain into wine, but it's hard to turn it back in, and when the Tian family has no grain to eat, drinking wine doesn't work.
