Zhang Junping, who built a brewing workshop, also had no experience, he had only seen it in books.

Zhang Junping didn't want that kind of simple small workshop, he didn't want a workshop, but a small brewery that could realize assembly line construction.

There should be a grain warehouse, a grain cooking workshop, a cooling workshop, a koji adding and mixing workshop, a fermentation workshop, a distillation workshop, and a wine cellar.

Fortunately, except for the last step, the previous one is similar to this era.

The grain needs to be steamed, cooled in a clean house, and then added to the koji for fermentation.

At this step, it is the whole process of fermenting liquor, and distilled liquor naturally has an additional process of distillation and purification.

Of course, there is also a koji-making workshop to brew distilled spirits, and the current barley malt is not good, and it is necessary to use Dakoji.

Therefore, Zhang Junping wanted to build his own workshop to make Daqu.

Distillation and purification and Daqu manufacturing are Zhang Junping's secret weapons. These two processes are all in charge of the family's hometown Ding, who has lived in the Zhang family since childhood.

Zhang Junping asked Zhang Lu to find some wine merchants to come over, and then found craftsmen, took out the drawings he had drawn, and explained to them how to build.

With the help of the sake brewers, the craftsmen quickly figured out how to build it.

In fact, if you make it clear, there won't be much difficulty!

To put it bluntly, it is to build more than a dozen large houses, but the decoration requirements in the room are relatively high, especially the cooling workshop, mixing workshop, fermentation workshop, Zhang Junping asked to use Dushan jade to pave the floor and walls, even if it is a relatively poor green jade, it will cost a lot of money.

The other rooms are all paved with bluestone, which requires strict seams, which will require very high construction skills, and cannot be done by experienced old craftsmen.

As long as the money is in place, no matter how high your requirements are, as long as it is not something that they really can't complete, they will agree.

The craftsman head is the germ of the contractor foreman in later generations.

The craftsman was very excited, this was a big job, although the time required by the owner was relatively tight, but this kind of work could still make him a lot of money.

"Zhang Langjun rest assured, the little old man must do a good job according to Langjun's requirements!" The craftsman nodded and gave Zhang Junping a reassurance as he sat down.

"When can we start work?"

"Tomorrow, tomorrow is an auspicious day, it is advisable to start construction!" The craftsman pinched his fingers and counted before replying.

In ancient times, especially in the Song Dynasty, houses were mostly wooden structures, so the craftsmen who built houses were mainly carpenters. And measuring bad luck is the basic skill of carpenters.

A Luban ruler can measure feng shui and measure good fortune.

Zhang Junping nodded, not relieved because of the guarantee of the craftsman's head, and turned his head to explain to Zhang Lu, "Uncle Lu, you bother to keep an eye on it here, just buy any materials you need!" ”

"Lang Jun rest assured! I'll keep an eye on this side! Zhang Lu simply agreed.

More than 1,000 acres of land in the entire farm are Zhang Junping's, so naturally he can build as much as he wants.

After the explanation, the craftsman head began to look around for a suitable place to build the factory.

Zhang Junping looked at the farmers who had been waiting in the distance.

"I've seen Lang Jun! Met the housekeeper! ”

Just now, Zhang Junping and Zhang Lu took a group of craftsmen to talk about things, and the farmers of the farm did not dare to come over.

"Lang Jun, these people are all tenants recruited from their hometown! The leader is the steward of the farm, called Chen Yu! Zhang Lu introduced beside him.

"Uncle Chen is expensive this year!" Zhang Junping asked the leading old man with a smile.

"Little Lao'er is forty-six this year!" The old man replied respectfully.

Zhang Junping was speechless, forty-six, he was barely middle-aged in later generations, and when he arrived in the Song Dynasty, forty-six dared to call himself old openly.

In fact, it is normal to think about it, according to historical records, the average life expectancy of civilians in the Song Dynasty was in their thirties, less than forty years old.

Forty-six years old is indeed considered old, and Chen Yu in front of him is definitely worthy of Lao Tzu, with dark and rough skin, wrinkles on his face, gray hair, and he looks like he is in his seventies.

"How many people are in Uncle Chen's family?"

"Xiao Lao'er has a family of eight people, with three sons, a grandson, and a granddaughter!" Old man Chen Yu said proudly.

"People are prosperous, Uncle Chen is a blessed man!"

"Tolang Junfu, life is still passable!"

This is probably the legendary awkward conversation.

After chatting for a while, everyone became familiar with each other, and then the old man Chen Yu asked, "I saw Lang Jun bringing craftsmen, I don't know what he plans to do?" That's what they care about the most.

They were only the tenants who cultivated the fields, and if Zhang Junping changed the use of the farm, they could lose their jobs.

"Oh! I'm going to build a winery on the farm! After the brewery is built, the young people in the village can go to work in the brewery! The wages are higher than those for cultivating the fields, and they take care of three meals a day, as well as clothes! Zhang Junping knew more or less what they were worried about, and said his plans with a smile, and by the way, he also said the arrangements for them.

"Lang Jun really asked the young people in the village to go to the winery to do it...... Work? But they don't know anything! Chen Yu asked with a face full of disbelief.

"You can't learn slowly! Left and right is not a technical job, it is all a work of effort! ”

"Thank you, Lang Jun! Little old man, thank you Lang Jun" Chen Yu suddenly knelt in front of Zhang Junping and kowtowed to Zhang Junping.

"Uncle Chen, hurry up!" Zhang Junping hurriedly turned sideways to avoid Chen Yu's kneeling and reached out to help him up.

When Xiao Lao'er was a child, he followed his father and mother to Kaifeng Mansion, thanks to the mercy of the Zhang family, he was able to have something to eat! Forty years have passed, Xiao Lao'er has married a wife and had children, from when our family of three fled to Kaifeng Mansion, and now we have three sons, and grandchildren......" Chen Laohan cried and told his experience, "Now, Lang Jun is kind again, let the young people in the village work in the winery......

The great kindness of the Zhang family, the compassion of Lang Jun...... The little old man must build a longevity tablet for Lang Jun, pray every day, and wish Lang Jun a long life and a hundred years old! ”

"Okay, Uncle Chen is not like this, you farm for me, I will give you food, you work for me, I will pay you, this is a natural thing, there is no need for this!" Zhang Junping comforted with a smile.

Zhang Lu whispered to the side to explain the situation of the farm, and Zhang Junping understood why Chen Yu was so excited.

At the beginning, there were only more than 70 people cultivating this farm, more than 1,500 acres of land, each of whom was responsible for 20 acres of land, and the rest was enough for them to eat, except for the grain handed over to the Zhang family.

Now, after decades of development, the tenants have married and had children, and the population has grown to more than 100, close to 300 people.

Although they can't eat enough, they can also mix half a bag, which makes these tenants in a predicament, and they are reluctant to leave, do not leave, and work hard every day, but they can only eat half full.
