Chapter 165: Out of place
The method is simple, the fermentation time is short, and the cost is not high - you don't have to bother to choose any good grapes, just get some wild grapes, mountain grapes, and sour grapes. What a great idea to make wine!
Just when Zhao Siniang was complacent about her "wonderful" idea, the rest of the family heard this, but their expressions were very weird, and they all wrinkled their faces, as if they were constipated.
Jiang Shi thought about it again and again, and said euphemistically: "Siniang, we eat grapes while admiring the moon during the Mid-Autumn Festival in Duxing, Youzhou, but I have never heard of anyone eating grapes in Chongyang." ”
Chongyang doesn't eat grapes? Why is that? The customs of Youzhou?
Zhao Siniang, who has been here for less than a year, was full of doubts, but she was afraid of revealing her stuffing, so she didn't dare to ask rashly.
Seeing Zhao Siniang's confused face, the anxious Zhao Sanniang couldn't hide her words in her heart, and she didn't care that it would cut her face, so she squirted: "You don't look at the season, it's almost Chongyang, where do you let us go to the whole grapes and come back?" Hehe, return the grapes, the grape leaves are almost gone. It's really hard for you to come up with such a bad idea! ”
No way? There was a grape trellis in Liang Ji's yard, and Zhao Siniang deliberately glanced at it twice and saw that there were a lot of fruits on it. It's been less than half a month since I came back from Jinghai, and the grape harvest has passed? That's too fast, right?
When Zhao Sanniang saw Zhao Siniang's unconvinced appearance, she knew that she didn't believe what Fang Cai said, so she gave an example: "There is a large field of wild grapes on the mountain behind Baiweitang, and the fruit on it is not delicious, so no one has touched it. Two days ago, after the autumn frost, only the vines remained. If you don't believe it. See for yourself! ”
In front of Zhao Sanniang, who was reasonable in the facts, Zhao Siniang finally had nothing to say.
Zhao Sanlang saw that Zhao Siniang was wilted by the blow, and hurriedly said, "Actually." Little sister, this idea is still good. Nowadays, there are few grapes, but they are not without ......"
Or the eldest brother knows my heart! Zhao Siniang, who felt that she couldn't get off the stage, looked at Zhao Sanlang who handed her the steps gratefully, and only heard him continue: "There are still several fruits on the grape trellises in the Longwei Dart Bureau, and it is estimated that there will be a pound to make up after picking them. ”
said this, so choked that Zhao Siniang almost didn't get up in one breath.
Big brother, are you really here to relieve me? Are you sure it's not to get revenge for me always stopping you from going to the dart game and seizing the opportunity to dismantle my platform?
Cut, you might as well not talk about it!
Zhao Siniang said she was angry. The result of her anger is severe, and will directly cause the brewery project to be put on hold indefinitely.
Hmph, one by one will speak. Show you what you can! Can you? Then you guys go up! Anyway, I'm not going to do it, mother!
It's just that Zhao Siniang shouted that she wouldn't open the wine shop, but in the end she was reluctant to make huge profits in the wine shop. It wasn't even two days before she looked around for a suitable place to build a brewery.
Zhao Siniang bought large tracts of wasteland on both sides of the river in the east of the city, except for a small part for the construction of new workshops and feedlots. There are also large areas of wasteland that are empty. She had wanted to carve out a piece of it to build a winery. However, I didn't know if I didn't see it, and after the actual inspection, I found that there was absolutely no shortage of water there, but unfortunately the water quality was not very good. Although it is not a problem to drink it, it is difficult to make sake from this water.
Don't look at Zhao Siniang as a layman in winemaking, but she knows the importance of high-quality water for winemaking. In her previous life, the reason why the hometown winery she frequented was located near her grandfather's house, where the transportation was not particularly developed, was not because of anything else, but because there was an ancient well that was rumored to be thousands of years old, which continues to this day. The water in the well is still flowing continuously, and the well water inside is even clearer and sweeter. Influenced by past life thinking. She was bent on finding a source of water comparable to a thousand-year-old well and building a winery nearby.
It stands to reason that such a good source of water is extremely difficult to find. Even if there is, it is estimated that there is already an owner, and most of the owners will not agree to sell. Just when Zhao Siniang had a headache about this, Zhao Sanniang sneered and said: "There are several springs on the mountain where our Baiweitang is located, and the spring water that flows out is sweet and delicious, it must be suitable!" I, who often sit in the east of the city, know it, but you, the person who bought the whole mountain, don't know, is this what people say, 'it's dark under the lights'? ”
Zhao Siniang couldn't care about dealing with Zhao Sanniang's ridicule, and as soon as she heard about it, she immediately asked her to lead the way to check it out in person.
Those springs are hidden in inconspicuous places, and I don't know how Zhao Sanniang found them. Although the water that flows out of it is a little smaller, it is abundant in several places together, and the best thing is that the water quality is not inferior to that of the thousand-year-old well in the previous life, and it is really an excellent source of water for sake brewing.
It's just that those springs are good, but it was born halfway up the mountain. Despite the fact that the mountain is not very steep, it is more difficult to build a workshop on the mountain than on flat ground, which not only requires higher wages for the bricklayers and helpers, but also drags on for a long time. Therefore, Zhao Siniang was still a little hesitant. But soon, after calculating the gains and losses, she dispelled her doubts and began to hire someone to build a workshop on the mountain.
The workshop is built, but what is the best brew? To be honest, she still didn't think it through. But what's the matter? The workshop has been built, she must have thought about it, and she will talk about it when the time comes!
The construction site was in full swing, and Zhao Siniang was not idle, and began to prepare for the construction of several new shops.
The other new shops are just a few of them, they are all branches in other places, and how the head office prepared before, the branches were done step by step. The most difficult thing to do is the teahouse that Zhao Siniang bought back not long ago.
The teahouse is located at the end of the alley of the street where Chunhuatang is located, don't look at the location is a little remote, the business is not bad on weekdays, and it is a lot of money to continue to operate as usual, and ordinary people are reluctant to sell it. It's just that the only son of the owner of the teahouse has not been assigned to the official position after the second grade in high school a year ago. The owner who cherished his son decided to sell the ancestral business in Youzhou, convert it into silver and take it to Yanjing to make a difference, so as to seek a future for his son.
This was in the early autumn, when the owner transferred the teahouse to his acquaintance Li Chang, and repeatedly told Li Chang to manage his family's ancestral business well, before he reluctantly left the secluded capital. Li Chang was also trustworthy, did not make another plan for the teahouse, and still planned to run the teahouse business. It's just that before reopening, he plans to renovate the teahouse. At this moment, Li Chang received a message from his hometown, saying that his father had died of illness and asked him not to delay and hurry back to his hometown for funeral. (To be continued.) )
