Wuyang drove the car down the mountain, thinking to himself, women are more calm and down-to-earth than men when they do something, but they should be able to do it when there is no way. The few people around me have had a few years of unpleasant life, and suddenly rose from a dead heart to a situation where everything is going well, where can they calm down.

"You will come home with me this afternoon, and you will be free to choose your own way of life in the future."

Yang Ye said: "Wuyang, although I don't want to stay in the mountains, I still want to do something in Chinese patent medicine and Chinese herbal medicine. What's more, the sisters in the family all have their own careers, and I can't eat idle. ”

Wuyang said: "It's okay to eat idle meals, there are a few people in the family who take care of the children at most, and the rest of the time is shopping and playing mahjong." ”

Fusang said: "Playing mahjong properly is good for the body, but playing it every day must be greasy." Wuyang, I'll still want to take on some designs in the future, no matter how much money I make, just don't waste my studies. ”

After a long while, he didn't hear Xi Yang and Li Zhi talking, so Wuyang asked, "What do you two think?" ”

Li Zhi smiled and said, "I just got married, so you didn't rush me away so quickly, did you?" Wuyang, I don't want to do anything for the time being, people are going to have a honeymoon, I may be a secret year. ”

Xi Yang said: "Li Zhi has never enjoyed the warmth of the family, I want to stay at home, I just have to learn to gouge round eyes before going out." ”

Wuyang asked, "What is a chisel round eye?" ”

Fusang said: "This is a local saying in the countryside, the original carpenter master made furniture, all of which were mortise and tenon structures, and the tenon was the part that stretched out. Mao is a groove. The tenon is round and square. Mao should also correspond to the circle and square. If it's all square. Definitely not connected. Xi Yang uses it here, which is extended to learn to be tactful when speaking, behaving, and doing things, and you can't always think of what to say, and you can't communicate with people. ”

Wuyang smiled: "Yang'er, how could you realize it so quickly?" ”

Xi Yang smiled and said: "I don't have a good relationship with people wherever I go, it must be my own reason." In the past two days, I think you are all the same good and gentle to all five of us. But I feel it, you make love with them. This intimacy, again, is mainly in language. I listened and analyzed, and it was actually very simple. For example, if you are already ready to eat, and I ask you to eat, you will shout: The meal is ready. Yang Ye will say: Wuyang, let's eat. Yang Xi'e will say: Wuyang, see if the food is delicious, do you want to drink some wine. You'll be happier when they say that. The food also tastes a little more fragrant, and over time. The relationship between each other has become far and near. This is true at home, and even more so when dealing with outsiders. ”

"Yang Er's thoughts are quite profound. In fact, no one in the family cares, just pay attention when you go out to deal with people. ”

Xi Yang said: "Habits are usually formed, the way I speak is to follow my mother, my mother has no friends, and the relationship between sisters and concubines is very stiff." But I've realized it, and I'm sure I'll change it slowly, and as for what I'm going to do in the future, that's for later. ”

It's almost to the side of the provincial road, and the restaurant where I had dinner last time is on the side of the road. Wuyang parked the car in Pingli, and the shopkeeper and the proprietress came out. The boss didn't remember Wuyang, but nodded with a smile, "Boss, here, please sit in the house." ”

The proprietress may be impressed by the handsome guy because she is a woman, or it may be the language of welcome, "Oh, handsome guy, you have time to come here today." Today's beauties are not the same as last time. ”

Wuyang smiled and said, "Yes, they are coming to climb the mountain, I know it." "This proprietress is polite, but if there is Wuyang's wife among these women, it must have overturned the vinegar jar.

The proprietress said: "Boss, there are only pork and vegetables at home, and the others are cured vegetables and jar vegetables." ”

Yang Ye said: "What's there? ”

"There are preserved fish, bacon, bacon, bacon, mutton, bacon, duck, turtle, rabbit, sausage, and jar dishes include fish, duck, and some sauerkraut. You can rest assured that they are all made in their own homes, and there are no things that have died of illness. ”

Yang Ye said: "Okay, one for everything." ”

The proprietress smiled and said, "Our dishes are affordable, order so many that you can't finish eating, do you subtract some or pack them?" ”

Fusang said: "Subtract some, we can't eat cured dog meat, cured duck and Zha duck repeat, too lazy to say, you just look at 10 dishes." ”

Wuyang said, "Boss, what kind of wine do you have?" ”

"The grain wine and sorghum wine brewed at home were steamed before the Chinese New Year, and they were still stored in clay pots. Do you taste it? ”

"Okay, let's take a look."

When I entered the house, I saw that the house was full of clay pots, and I remembered the two clay urns that were fished on the shipwreck, and the appearance was similar to this, but it was just a little taller. It's been a few days, and Liu Bingqiu should be back too.

"Boss, if you want to taste it, you can scoop it yourself, so as not to say that I am doing tricks."

Wuyang smiled and said: "What is there to do here, it's just a meal of wine." ”

The proprietress smiled: "If you are really a person who can drink, it is not a matter of drinking with a meal." ”

"There's a lot going on?"

"You drink first."

Wuyang scooped a little with a spoon and poured it into the cup, because he had to drive and couldn't drink more. The result is that these few grams of wine make Wuyang feel that the taste is different. After taking another sip of sorghum wine, I felt that although there was still a process that had not been done, it was not much worse than Li Yaowen's bandit wine.

"Boss, what's the price of this wine?"

"Grain wine is 12 yuan a catty, and sorghum wine is 15 yuan a catty."

Wuyang smiled and said, "Yours is more expensive than others." ”

The proprietress said, "This is still the price of the year before last, and it should have increased this year." ”

"If I buy more, can I do less?"

"It's no less, at most, I can only give you one jar. These wines were ordered. It's been two months since I made wine, and those who paid the deposit should be coming soon, and if they don't have wine, they will have to compensate others. ”

Wuyang said: "Last time I came, didn't you see your family brewing?" ”

"It's not here, it's just a restaurant, and these crockpots have been moved. It is for the convenience of guests. Our family has an old house in the col over there. My father-in-law and mother-in-law live there. Usually growing vegetables and making wine is their old profession, ancestral. ”

"Do you make a lot of wine?"

"Not much, when the peach blossoms bloom, make some rice wine, when the osmanthus blooms, make grain wine, sorghum wine, I know, it is more than 100 tons of wine every year."

Wuyang said: "A pound of wine earns 5 yuan, which is 1 million a year." There are also sake lees that can be sold for money, which can be used to cover other expenses. ”

The proprietress smiled and said, "How can there be so many, it's good to be able to earn a net profit of two yuan per catty." There was so much money to be made, so we all went back to making wine. ”

"This wine is so good, is it because your parents-in-law's skills are good, or is the water better?"

"Technology is one aspect, mainly in the preparation of koji, water may be more important. There is a Yin River in our backyard, and the taste is different when we use the water of the Yin River to make wine. ”

"Others can also go to your house to get water."

"People from this village, relatives. If you want to drink the sake yourself, you can come and get water at any time. It's not okay to sell sake brewing. ”

Wuyang said: "This Yin River is from the side of the Yaowang Temple, right?" ”

The proprietress said, "How do you know?" ”

"The old master told me when he passed away, and after I buried him, I went to see it on the spot, so I knew."

"The old monk's treasures have been passed on to you?"

"There's nothing to be bored, just a few medicine books."

The proprietress said, "There is also a medicinal herb garden, where the medicinal herbs are very divine. In the past, the old monk often came to our house to get water and decoction medicine, but later my old man sent him water for a few years, and wanted to go to the medicinal herb garden to see, but he refused, so he left him alone. ”

Wuyang smiled: "You have done a good deed, but the benefits have been given to me, I'm sorry." In the future, I will definitely still use the water of this Yin River. ”

"How are you going to use it?"

"One is to use the medicinal materials of the herb garden to make Chinese patent medicines, and the other is to build a large winery and use the water of the Yin River to make wine."

The proprietress looked very gloomy, "It's barely reasonable to run a pharmaceutical factory, this is an old tradition, we can agree, but you also built a winery and robbed our family's business, absolutely not." ”

Wuyang doesn't have a winery by himself, he really wants to build one, he originally wanted to have a good talk with the proprietress, but from the conversation with the proprietress, he got the information that the Yin River is from Lotus Mountain, of course, he wants to use it, so as not to ask for a price, as long as the negotiation is made, he will not let them suffer. "Boss, don't talk too hard, it's not like you can't say it. Now I am mining in the north of Lotus Mountain, and at the current rate, it will not take 10 years for the entire Lotus Mountain to be blown flat. The mountains are gone, where is the spring water? ”

The proprietress was anxious, "I know that you bought Lotus Mountain, you can't do anything lacking virtue, Lotus Mountain has to be kept." ”

Wuyang said: "Keeping Lotus Mountain will benefit your family, and opening a mine will benefit my family, which is not a lack of virtue, right?" ”

The proprietress said: "The mountains here are gone, the water is gone, isn't it a lack of virtue?" ”

"Your family agreed to let me take water to make wine, but I only mined the valley over there and stopped, and no longer mined in the mountains, do you think it will work?" In fact, the Wuyang mine only mines the volcanic lava in the valley over there, and for the medicinal herb garden, the lava will only be mined on the periphery, and the crater must be kept, otherwise it will affect the microclimate, and the growth of those medicinal materials will be affected.

The proprietress said, "The affairs of our family are decided by men, so you can go and tell my husband and his parents." ”

Wuyang said: "Go and discuss it at home, my requirements are clear, and it will be like this." You sue me, where is your old house? ”

"On the highway and walking 200 meters to the south, there is a concrete road around the mountain mouth, and we are the only ones in that mountain pass. Do you know our family name? ”

Wuyang smiled: "Of course Carpenter Yan is surnamed Yan." "The local accent, the word Yan does not read the color of the Yan sound, read the dumb (AI), say a person is dull and don't say dull, say stupid, in this way, a stupid carpenter, then no one invites. It's funny to say, in fact, Carpenter Yan is quite smart, making wine and opening restaurants, several people are so flexible.

When Wuyang went out, several of them were already playing poker, Yang Ye was teaching, and the three of them were learning. Wuyang ignored them, raised his legs and left.

Rounding the mouth of the mountain, I saw a small mountain rush, with ridges on both sides, only a few hundred meters apart. The ridges and slopes are planted with Camellia oleifera trees, and the yellowish trunk is as thick as an adult's arm, which should be decades old. The flat ground below the hillside is not wide. Except for the gutters. It's rice paddies and vegetable fields.

On both sides of the cement road that has just entered the mountain. A lot of pits were dug and looking at the mound of soil outside, I knew that the pit must be very deep.

After walking 500 meters, the flat land in the middle of the ridge is much wider, about 7 or 600 meters, and the flat land of the whole col is about 5 or 60 acres. It's about 7 or 8 acres. But the good times didn't last long, and soon the ridges came together and rose and became mountains.

A yard covering about 5 acres is located under the mountains. There is not a single tree in the yard, the trees are all outside the yard. Concrete was poured in the yard, and some camellia seed shells were piled up in the corner.

Hearing the barking of the dog, an old man with gray hair ran out, walking like a fly, and his body was very strong. "Uncle Yan, I'm sorry for your trouble."

"Secretary Li, you are a rare guest. Please come in. ”

Wuyang thought: This is bad, my identity is exposed. You can't bargain too much. I can't blame those girls, I didn't explain it to them clearly.

"Thank you. Uncle Yan, I'll take a look at Yinhe. ”

Uncle Yan said, "Okay, I'll show you the way." Secretary Li, our family has been drinking water from the Yin River for many years, and there is no kettle to boil water. ”

Wuyang smiled: "You drink the water of the Yin River at home, I'm afraid there is no tea, right?" ”

"There is tea, our family has planted tea trees, and we can make tea."

"Forget it, drink cold water too."

After passing through several rooms to the back, I saw a fence made of granite, the fence has an opening, and the entrance is a stone step made of granite, and at the bottom is a square pool, which is divided into two sides by granite, the water on one side is still, and the other side is much narrower, but the water flow is very fast, and the flow is not small.

Wuyang asked: "Uncle Yan, is the flowing water in the Yin River so big?" ”

Uncle Yan smiled and said: "Now it is the smallest, it has not rained this spring, and the flowing water is much smaller." At most, the pool was full. ”

"Uncle Yan, is washing vegetables at home here?"

"Yes, laundry, washing, and men's showers are all here. In the past, winemaking was carried by carrying water, but now it uses submersible pumps. It just so happens that I'm getting older, and I'm getting more machines. ”

"Uncle is old this year?"

"96 years old."

Wuyang smiled and said, "I thought you were in your 60s." I see that the carpenter who runs the restaurant is only in his 40s at most. ”

Uncle Yan smiled and said: "I am a monk who returned to the customs of Yaowang Temple, and I only returned to the customs in my 40s, and my wife is a nun from Fanjing Mountain." The government asked me to return to the vulgar, so I asked to settle here and protect this Yin River, and the government really agreed, and it has been more than 50 years in the blink of an eye, and I have sold wine for 20 years. ”

"Uncle, didn't Carpenter Yan say that the winemaking is your family's ancestor?"

"That's to sell alcohol and deceive people and brag. I can't eat enough at home, how can I have food to make wine, otherwise I wouldn't have to leave home. Our husband and wife are not aware of the affairs of the two monks, and our children do not know, so don't tell you about it. The recipe for this koji, I asked my junior brother in the temple for it, you got those medicine books, they all have them, have you read them? ”

Wuyang said: "I can memorize the formula." ”

Uncle Yan said: "Secretary Li, my junior brother told me that there are several medicinal wine recipes for nourishing yin and aphrodisiac, treating rheumatism, and bruises, have you read them all?" ”

Wuyang said with a smile: "Uncle Yan, you only make ordinary wine now, and your business is so good, why do you care about this?" ”

Uncle Yan smiled and said, "Secretary Li, what I mean is that you brew those medicinal wines, and I brew ordinary wines, is it okay?" ”

"So you're thinking about this. In fact, we can work together to make the winery bigger. ”

"Secretary Li, your heart is quite big, such a big medicinal herb garden, it's no problem to brew hundreds of tons of medicinal wine every year, why bother staring at ordinary wine?"

Wuyang smiled and said, "Uncle, this is the difference between modern production and small-scale peasant economy. If I produce hundreds of tons of liquor every year and want to sell it all over the country, the production is too small to spend money on advertising, and it is simply impossible. Foreign monks are good at chanting, if we can't sell them locally, then my winery is not dead? Therefore, if you want to do it, you have to make it big, and the big one will definitely not work without liquor. ”

Uncle Yan said: "Isn't there also a winery that produces medicinal wine and sells it now?" ”

"It's a little fight, and I can't look down on it."

Uncle Yan smiled and said, "Secretary Li, how big are you thinking?" ”

Wuyang thought that people are sitting on the ground, and they don't want to do that kind of tricky thing, no matter how big the scale, they always have to cooperate with their family. "Uncle, I want to cooperate with you, are you interested?"

"Tell me how we cooperate."

"There are two options, one is partial cooperation. I make medicinal wine and mineral water, and we cooperate with liquor; The other is full cooperation, no matter what is produced, we invest according to shares, and dividends are distributed according to shares. ”

Uncle Yan said: "My family can't take out a lot of money, the land belongs to the state, although the Yin River is in my home, but as you said, if you open a mine in Lotus Mountain, the water source may be gone, and it is not possible to invest as a share, even this yard and these houses can be invested." ”

Wuyang said: "Uncle, it doesn't matter if you don't have capital investment at home, as long as we negotiate the shares, we will pay dividends strictly according to the shares in the future, and the investment funds will be deducted from the dividends year by year." ”

"This statement is still more reasonable, you are going to deduct the amount of dividends, how long will it take to deduct it?"

Wuyang said: "This can't be condemned to death. There is only one, for example, your family's annual income from brewing is 1 million, we will take this as the guarantee of your family's income, and if the dividend to you is only 1 million, it will not be deducted. How many years will be deducted can only depend on the situation. ”

Uncle Yan said, "Wait a minute, I'll call my son to discuss." ”

"That's right, we've already ordered food from your son and gone over to eat and talk. Rest assured, I won't let you suffer. ”

"Secretary Li, let's not go, let's discuss it, I'm worried that this matter is also a flower in the moon mirror in the water."

"Why do you think so?" (To be continued......)
