Chapter 035: Winemaking
This time, Wang Leshan did the same as he did with strong beans, and did not choose to exchange it for brain fruit immediately.
After about five or six hours in the space, all the grains of the spiritual rice were dried, and the grains were very full, and there was no need to screen them at all, and they were all packed in the sacks, a total of seven large bags, and the remaining nearly twenty kilograms were soaked in the third-order spiritual water.
The bamboo mat for drying the grain was put away, and all the rice stalks were spread out and dried again.
After the rice stalks were dried, they were all tied up and moved outside, and tools such as hoes were brought in outside, and the remaining rhizomes of the spiritual rice were cleaned up, and the ground was turned over again, and the space was not large, and the work was done in about an hour or two.
Re-filled the spiritual water turned the space into a paddy field, and when the twenty kilograms were almost soaked, the seedlings were raised again, and with the experience of the last time, this time the progress was obviously much faster, and the temperature adjustment or something was handy again.
The 20 kilograms of millet seedlings were naturally planted in the 12 acres of land outside.
When all this is done, it will only be ten o'clock outside.
At the back of the cabin, there were about two acres of dry land, which had been abandoned there and nothing had been grown. Wang Leshan took tools to clean up the weeds, stones, and waste on the wasteland, and then spread the dried spiritual rice stalks evenly on the two acres of land, and set the rice stalks on fire and burned them.
Wang Leshan is going to turn these two acres of wasteland into a high-end vegetable garden!
If all the third-order spiritual water is used on the huge farm, according to the current situation, even if a way to replenish energy has been found, it is not very likely, but it is completely possible to do it with just two acres of land.
As for why he wants to build another vegetable garden, Wang Leshan's idea is also simple, that is, in order to make his own people eat better, he can't sell what he eats, he can eat what he wants, how can he be more advanced!
In addition to eating for oneself, the extra can also be used as a gift for others. Since it's a gift, of course, it's more advanced than selling it yourself.
People like to divide anything, including people, into three, six, nine, etc., which is why Wang Leshan wanted to take the boutique route after harvesting the white radish, and this high-end vegetable garden is a boutique among the best.
The stalks of Lingdao were used to burn the land, which was also to increase the soil fertility of this high-quality vegetable garden. The spiritual water is of the third order, and the soil naturally wants to be better.
"Ground ......"
Wang Leshan watched the rice stalk burning, and suddenly remembered that when he returned the "Duanmei" to the old man surnamed Ye, he made a small rub of first-order spiritual soil into the flower pot, and his eyes lit up.
After all the rice stalks were burned, Wang Leshan went back to the cabin and entered the space, and used a hoe to dig out two baskets of first-order spiritual soil in the space. Wang Leshan was not sure how deep the first-order spiritual soil was in this space, so he stopped after digging two baskets, also for fear of digging too much and hurting the space.
Two baskets of red soil, Wang Leshan carefully broke and kneaded, evenly sprinkled in more than two acres of land, and then poured third-order spiritual water in the ground, so that the land was raised first.
"What to plant?"
Wang Leshan touched his chin and thought about it, and a rough, daily, and short cycle appeared in his mind, which was Wang Leshan's first choice.
"It's better to search the Internet and then be sure."
Wang Leshan entered the cabin and opened his laptop, and slowly searched the Internet. In the process of searching, the links of many vegetable seeds naturally went to a treasure network.
When he was in Shencheng before, Wang Leshan had bought something on a treasure network, mainly because he wanted to be cheap. This time I took a closer look, this treasure net is really all-inclusive, almost any seeds, Wang Leshan added all the suitable ones he saw to the shopping cart.
"Hey, there's even ginseng seeds for sale here."
Wang Leshan chose the one with the highest price and the highest evaluation and bought a group of round ginseng from the Northeast, and he didn't think much about it, he just wanted to take it back and see it.
Take a look around and see that there are already quite a few more things in the shopping cart.
After paying the money, Wang Leshan wanted to buy it once and take a look, if it was not bad, he would buy it on it in the future, and it would be convenient for people to send it to the door with his fingers.
Before dawn, Wang Leshan entered the space and pulled out the spiritual rice seedlings that had been raised and bundled them into a small handful, took them out and put them in the truck and locked them, and also put in two bags of spiritual rice.
As for the seedlings, there are just some leftovers, and Wang Leshan took advantage of the dawn to insert all of them in the space, and the space must not be wasted there. In the real world, you can harvest a round of spiritual rice in space in 6 days, which is also a good way to increase your points.
As the sun rises, the farm comes alive again.
Almost at the same time that the roadbed was paved on the side of the road, all the fields on the farm were completed.
Before noon, Wang Leshan drove the truck outside, first went around, and then went to the rice mill in a neighboring village, and used the rice hulling machine to hull all the two bags of millet into brown rice. As for the falling rice husks, Wang Leshan also specially asked the people from the rice mill to help him collect them, and they were willing to give more money, and they naturally did not object.
The people in the rice mill were quite shocked when they saw this rice, and asked Wang Leshan about the origin of this rice, but Wang Leshan naturally pretended to smile mysteriously and did not answer.
After grinding the rice, Wang Leshan returned to Dakang Village, and asked Fat Zili and others to go to the truck to unload the seedlings that had been prepared, and pretend that they were specially transported from outside.
For these spiritual rice seedlings, the croppers Han Hong Dehai and Wang Elephant were naturally full of praise, and they also believed in Wang Leshan's new rice theory.
Wang Leshan drove back home, put a bag of rice into the house, and instructed his mother Hong Ximei to use this kind of rice for cooking in the future, Hong Ximei naturally did not object.
The remaining bag of rice, Wang Leshan put it on the farm, where he had already bought a gas stove and a rice cooker, so He Yuting would not have to run on both sides in the future.
Needless to say, the taste of this rice is absolutely unprecedented, and the appearance is even better. The fat man Liwang Elephant and others had a lot of food, but this time it was even more exaggerated, everyone almost couldn't eat more than four bowls at noon, and even said that such rice can be eaten even if you don't want any dishes, it is too fragrant and delicious.
As soon as they heard that this rice was a new type of rice, these people were more and more surprised, and at the same time, they were more confident, and they secretly worked hard to help Shanzi plant this kind of rice, and it would be great if the family could get some to plant in the coming year.
Among the exaggerated words of these people, Hong Dehai's words made Wang Leshan's eyes light up: "If this kind of glutinous rice is brewed with rice wine, my mother, the taste is ....... drunk just thinking about it!" ”
Wang Leshan asked, "Uncle Hai, do you think this kind of rice can make wine?" ”
"Of course, the glutinousness and aroma of this rice are the most suitable for sake brewing." Hong Dehai nodded and explained: "I used to work at a winery in town. ”
"That's right."
Wang Leshan felt that this was a pretty good idea, and asked a few words about Hong Dehai's winemaking, all of which were kept in mind, and he was going to find some information to check again, if he could really make wine, it would be great. God knows how far the sake made from this kind of rice will reach, and it will definitely be sold at a good price!
"After eating so much, I didn't get sick of belly. Hey, it seems that the whole person is in a much better spirit, and it feels like he didn't do anything in the morning. ”
After eating, the fat man said a word, Hong Dehai and Wang Daxiang also nodded, feeling that what they said was not wrong at all, and they couldn't help but sigh that this rice is good.
Wang Leshan let the three of them rest a little, and he was going to go to the entrance of the village to recruit a few more casual workers, even if the speed of manual transplanting was not able to plant two acres a day, Wang Leshan was in a hurry to plant all the spiritual rice today, so he naturally had to find more people.
As soon as he heard that Wang Leshan was going to recruit another person, Hong Qingqing gestured to He Yuting to translate and said that her parents could come to help when they were free, and Fat Zili also said that his father could come over, and Hong Dehai and Wang Daxiang also recommended two people.
In this way, there are eight more people, plus Wang Dali, Fat Zili, Hong Dehai, Wang Daxiang, Hong Qingqing, and He Yuting, who must go to the ground, a total of fourteen people, and before the sun sets in the afternoon, the twelve acres of land are all filled with spiritual rice seedlings.
After inviting these people to dinner, Wang Leshan paid the wages to the casual workers together, and the people who came this afternoon were counted as one day, as for Hong Dehai and Wang Daxiang, they both took an extra day's money, and Wang Leshan was naturally willing to be generous in this kind of small money.
When he got up the next day, seeing that Lingdao had successfully survived in reality, Wang Leshan was also relieved.
Another day passed, the cement road was almost completed, and it entered the stage of road maintenance, and in a few days the cement was all set and formed, and it could be used.
And Wang Leshan also received a courier from a treasure network, in addition to the vegetables and ginseng he originally bought, there were also things needed for brewing that he added later.
The vegetable seeds were planted in the high-end vegetable garden, and the ginseng was sprinkled on the edge of the peach tree in the space.
After entering the space at night, Wang Leshan started making wine for the first time.
Wang Leshan found the method of winemaking from the Internet, and also consulted Hong Dehai, and he has gone through the steps many times in his heart.
First of all, the spiritual rice was soaked in the third-order spiritual water, about two or three hours can be gently crushed with fingers, then drained and rinsed, and steamed a lot with the steamer bought during the day, and when it cooled to about 30 degrees, it was mixed into the koji and put into the two large wooden barrels prepared together, and then mixed some wine powder with the spiritual water and mixed with the rice repeatedly by hand......
After working for a long time, Wang Leshan finally finished the wine-making process, and finally pressed the wooden board, and the next thing to do was to wait for time to brew slowly.
As for whether the first winemaking, which was not very ripe or even incorrect, could be successful, Wang Leshan was not sure.
But it's spiritual rice and spiritual water, so it's not too bad, right......
I went to sleep with a little trepidation.
