Chapter 214: Cooperative Brewing Makes Money

The water is murmuring, the joy is not late, and the cattle and sheep are drunk and drunk.

Zhang Zhong really took his family and ran to other people's villages, and the three old men also wanted to see how life was going there, so they followed together.

When they arrived at the place, the three old men found it difficult to draw conclusions for a while, saying that the local people were not living well, and they all seemed to be very happy, and there was no sorrow in their eyes.

said that they were doing well, the clothes they wore were all made of linen, even the patriarch was the same, the dishes on his face were obvious, and the little boy was not wearing clothes, and he was running around the mountains.

"This is the relationship between spiritual civilization and material civilization that Xiaobao and Juan Juan often say, and it would be good if they could get more material income without destroying their united and upward spirit."

Old man Bi now seemed to be a theorist specializing in this area, and said to Old Man Yao and Old Man Zhang next to him.

Old man Yao is also used to this kind of talk, and anyone can say it, and it is still a set of them, but how to increase the income of the local people is the most difficult thing.

The outspoken old man Zhang asked the old man Yao what he thought for him.

"Yongcheng, what do you think the local people can do to increase their income?"

When Zhang Zhong heard Old Man Zhang ask himself, he was just about to say his thoughts, but after pondering for a while, he asked back: "I don't know if Uncle Zhang has a good way?" ”

As he spoke, Zhang Zhong's eyes also looked at Old Man Bi and Old Man Yao, which means that have you thought of a way?

The old man shook his head at the same time, if they had a way, they would have said it a long time ago, this place will produce enough food for themselves, and now it is convenient to go outside near the city, and there is a village far away, only wild beasts on the mountain can sell for some money, there are many fruits that night, but no one wants it.

According to the method of Shuzhou? What can be raised in the mountains? This place seems to be just to find people who can ski, so that people can make a little money, but not every mountain can ski.

Seeing that the three old men couldn't talk about it, Zhang Zhong stopped talking about the topic, pointed to the trees on the mountain and said: "There are a lot of trees here, even if it is cold in winter, there is no shortage of charcoal." ”

"Yes, it's all cut down to make terraces." Old man Zhang thought that Zhang Zhong was reminding them of the idea of hitting the trees, so he immediately followed along.

"Uncle Zhang, there are enough mudslides here, don't toss people anymore, I mean pick a mountain that doesn't affect the road and people's places, cut and plant on it, skiers also need to warm up here, so that they can earn some money, this does not solve the fundamental problem."

Zhang Zhong was startled when he heard Old Man Zhang's words, if he really wants to do that, the people here will be finished, not to mention deliberately protecting the environment, and he can't specifically destroy and use it, but he can't just ignore the survival of future generations and lose all the resources.

Now the old man Zhang knew, it turned out that he was talking about skiing, not a way to make the local people really rich.

The four of them talked and watched, and Zhang Wang took the seven little ones to chat with the local patriarch and the three ladies with the help of the interpreter.

Zhang Zhong is not afraid that Mrs. will say the wrong thing at all, even if he says the wrong thing, Mrs. will not be able to, even if Zhang Wang does not wear the clothes of the command, and wears cotton clothes casually, it also looks dignified and friendly, which makes the three wives of the patriarch feel very comfortable, especially the cute appearance of the seven little guys, who immediately conquered everyone.

Even the patriarch who accompanied him wanted to grab one and raise it himself, and it was better to grab two, and a few people laughed and entered the hall in the village, which was the center of the whole village, and was all made of stone, and the wall outside the village was built of stone and wood.

The patriarch Qianghu was very enthusiastic, and no matter whether it was time to eat or not, as soon as the people arrived, they began to let people prepare, and the cattle used to cultivate the land were killed, the sheep were also killed, and all kinds of animals hunted in the mountains.

There is no need for other methods, in fact, they don't have much cooking means at all, and they take it out directly to bake, which is lively and convenient at the same time.

Old man Bi saw that the cow was killed, and he was distressed, and glanced at Zhang Zhong, Zhang Zhong seemed to be fine, as if the cow was the same as the pig, and he would kill it.

While roasting the meat, the people in the village danced and sang with the people of Zhang Wang's family, Wang Juan's father finally played a role at this time, don't look at him usually doesn't care about anything, but the amount of wine is large, and the kind of wine that is dry to the cup blocks a lot of wine for Zhang Zhong.

Zhang Zhong usually doesn't drink much, he is always drunk, he usually drinks some medicinal wine and wine, even if he socializes with others, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan do not allow him to drink too much, and the anti-hangover medicine and sobering soup are ready.

Before coming this time, Zhang and Wang prepared to drink the diuretic medicine prescribed by the doctor, and at the same time, there were drugs that simulated the absorption of alcohol into the blood, so that the alcohol could be excreted in the urine as much as possible.

The people in the inner courtyard of Zhang Wang's two families are specially used to fight with others, try to eat as little as possible, so that it will occupy the stomach, and also let the alcohol not be discharged smoothly, and after mixing with food, it will enter the bloodstream more.

The patriarch Qianghu drank a little too much, and when he was not drunk, he talked a lot, hugged Zhang Zhong, who was also smiling, and said: "Brother Zhang, good, good official, I have never seen an official like you, especially the people in the family, who can sing and dance, you can rest assured, I will pay as much as I should pay this year's rent, and Tugong, even if I don't take other villages, I will make it up for you and let you send it to the capital." ”

"Then thank you Brother Qianghu, Brother Qianghu's wine is also good, come, drink."

Zhang Zhong doesn't care about any rent and tugong, he just doesn't send it to the capital, who can treat him? It's not like Shuzhou here, there is a lot of taxes in a year, and there are a lot of Tugong, and the rent in Yizhou is digested by Benzhou, and Tugong refuses to pay, which one dares to impeach? That bit of broken rent is not enough for the two families.

Wang Juan's father, who was carrying the task, also came over, threw the cup in his hand, and said under the incomprehensible gaze of others: "It's not enjoyable, change the bowl and drink." ”

Qianghu also knew who this was, the big official of Sanpin, and when he saw that the big official was so heroic, he also changed the bowl.

The other drinkers learned to change the cups, only the three of them did not move, and they still haven't drunk the wine, seeing Zhang Zhong boasting there without blushing, the three old men are really helpless.

If this wine is delicious, what is the wine made by the Zhang family? When did the restaurant owner learn to stare and lie.

Drinking and drinking, the problem is out, the meat is basically eaten in the village, the people of the Zhang and Wang families rarely move, but they drink a lot of wine, how much wine can there be in the small village? Wine is made of grain.

When Zhang Zhong drank another bowl of wine, the people in the village found Qianghu and whispered about the lack of wine.

Now Qianghu was dumbfounded, he drank it to the fullest, the wine was gone, this ...... It's a shame, do you tell the guests not to drink, the wine is gone?

Just when Qianghu was embarrassed, Wang Juan's father spoke and said to Zhang Zhong: "In-laws, I remember that we also brought a lot of wine when we came, don't always drink one, change it." ”

"Yes, yes, my in-laws don't say that I forgot, indeed, Brother Qianghu, why don't you taste the wine I brought, how about it?" Zhang Zhong finally waited for this opportunity, he was really afraid that the wine in the village would not be able to drink, and he used a negotiating tone when asking, after all, people invited you to drink and eat, and it was a bit bad for you to take the wine.

Qianghu didn't care about anything else at all, and the wine in the village was drunk, so Zhang Zhong brought the wine, so drink it, happily agreed, and ordered someone to follow to get the wine.

As soon as the wine was changed, the three old men who had been sipping their lips just now quietly poured out the wine in their cups, held it in their hands and waited for someone to pour the wine brought by Zhang Zhong, and only then did they know what wine was when they drank the wine of the Zhang family.

As soon as the people in the village drank the new wine, they became excited one by one, good wine, or not made of grain, and the strength in the mouth was not small, all kinds of fruit tastes, even the little baby drank two sips, and quarreled to drink.

Qiang Hu took a bowl of wine, clicked his mouth twice, looked at Zhang Zhong suspiciously, and asked, "Brother Zhang, where did you get this wine?" How can it taste better than my wine? ”

Zhang Zhongxin said Isn't this nonsense, if my family's wine can't catch up with your village, what kind of restaurant will you open, the most important thing is that you have a good son and a good daughter-in-law.

"Brother Qianghu, I can't hide it, I have countless restaurants in my house, and there are people who specialize in winemaking in every place, and they make wine according to local things, this time I came to Yizhou, and I am also going to find a place to specialize in winemaking, which should be set in Yandao County, and make a strong aroma type of wine, not a sauce-flavored one, and you don't understand it, you know that I want to build a place to make wine here."

The wine you drink is made of fruits, the fruits of Shuzhou, the place is full of wild fruits all over the mountains, no one wants them at all, and there are days and nights, others don't want it, I want it, make fruit wine, and put some liquor in the secondary fermentation process after fermentation inside.

No, the taste has changed, it's delicious, and there is a little stamina, when drinking, it stretches into the mouth, and it is comfortable after drinking, and it was originally intended to be sold in the restaurant, but unfortunately, before it was brewed, it came here, and it was not enough to sell.

The main reason is that there are many people there, and they can help pick fruits, and there are many fruits, but it is a pity that a rich wine has no benefits there. ”

Zhang Zhong seemed to have drunk too much, his eyes narrowed, and he complained to Qianghu.

Qiang Hu was also confused, but he understood in his heart, listening to Zhang Zhong's words, he had an idea and said: "Brother Zhang, there are a lot of fruits here, and the black sky you said, is this the thing?" ”

Seeing the residue left over from the wine, Qiang Hu wandered to the wall next to him to find a few soybean-sized, blackened plant fruits, and brought them to Zhang Zhong.

"Yes, it's this thing, it can also cure diseases, and there are many fruits here?" Zhang Zhong took one and threw it in his mouth, swallowed it twice, and asked.

"Many, not to mention many, the mountains are all over, no one eats, people don't want to transport it outside, people are not afraid, they all do it, adults and children do it, there is nothing to do when you are idle, you can take out the wine and sell it, so that others can taste the wine here."

Qianghu is simple, where do you know Zhang Zhong's thoughts, and feel that he has a good relationship with Zhang Zhong, so he wants to help.

The three old men Yao listened on the side, and then they finally knew what Zhang Zhong wanted to do, instead of ordering others how to do it, it was better to let others find it by themselves, this hand was really moisturizing things silently, no wonder they had to hold any drinking parties and dances under the mountain, it turned out that in order to drink other people's wine, they took out their own wine to seduce others.

Good ability, you can't accept it.

"If all local officials can do this, why worry that the people of Datang can't live a good life? Yongcheng is usually wilted, and he is afraid of his wife, but now he looks quite pleasing to the eye. ”

Old man Zhang whispered to Old Man Bi and Old Man Yao, feeling that the wine in his mouth tasted better than before.

"Good wine, the wild fruits on the mountain here have become wine, and it is worth it, the first way is to build a ski resort, the second way is to make wine, see what else is there in the back?"

Old man Yao was also in a good mood, and he could watch the local people live a good life, which felt sweeter than eating honey.

Old man Bi also sighed with emotion, "Once you seek merit and don't publicize it, the Zhang family's methods are still so difficult to guess, maybe the people here will understand Zhang Zhong's good intentions in the future." ”

Zhang Zhong had already begun to discuss cooperation with Qianghu at this time, and Zhang Zhong began to propose to help the village make wine and sell it.

Qiang Hu disagreed, he wanted to help Zhang Zhong pick fruits, and it didn't matter if he sold it or not.

The two of them did not back down, and in the end it was Wang Juan's father who came up with the idea, so that both sides did not suffer, this year is to let people pick fruits, and the Zhang family will buy them to make wine, and they will do it in the city, so that the people in the village will learn, and then Zhang Zhong will not buy the fruit next year, buy wine, carry out secondary fermentation by himself, and then put it in the restaurant to sell, so that no one will suffer, and no one will take advantage of the other party.

Zhang Zhong in the haze and Qiang Hu in a confused state happily agreed, and the matter was done in the future, and then it was a drink to celebrate, Zhang Zhong also sent a lot of spices to the village, and directly tested it on the barbecue, and the taste was really good.

"The Zhang family suffered a loss this time, so as soon as the wine is put away, it can be sold immediately? The Zhang family needs to advance money to give the local people a chance to make money in advance, and the first brewing will take at least three months to become a wine, and the second fermentation will also take about five months to taste out.

When did the Zhang family make wine with local fruit picks in Shuzhou? There doesn't seem to be much wild fruit there, and it's too late in time. ”

As he spoke, Old Man Bi suddenly thought of this very important question.

Old man Zhang explained beside him, "It's a fruit from Luzhou, it's been two years, of course the taste is good, it's impossible to achieve such a taste in eight months, the taste is bad, Qianghu will think it's not easy to sell, how can you agree?" I estimate that it will take at least two years for the Zhang family to turn the fruits of Yizhou into wine, and it will take at least two years to make money.

What is this called, yes, pressing goods, the Zhang family usually likes to use the way of quasi-cash flow when doing business, that is, try to use all the money, and when doing business, always invest a small part, so that other local businessmen cooperate, if it is not for the local people, they are unwilling to press money here. ”

"Yes, I heard Xiaobao and Juan occasionally mention that there is a method called cash flow that can make money, what kind of borrowing, splitting, mortgage and re-lending, it should be more profitable, but Juan Juan seems to disagree, Xiaobao also said that, I really don't know what kind of means, why not take it out?"

Old man Bi usually knows some things, he doesn't know that this business model will cause financial turmoil, especially let Zhang Xiaobao come to work, or in such an era, if Zhang Xiaobao is willing, he can mess up the entire financial system of Datang, and the financial situation at this time is unstable, especially in terms of currency exchange.

Qiang Hu didn't know what Zhang Zhong, who called him a brother, planned to do so, let alone the specific situation of the Zhang family, and he didn't even have a specific concept of where Shuzhou was, he only knew that this official was good, and a few little guys from Zhang Zhong's family were also fun, but unfortunately he couldn't rob it.

Look at the seven little guys, and then look at the babies in their own homes, compare the two, it is really heaven and earth, even if you change into the same beautiful clothes.

"Brother Zhang, how did you raise your baby, oops, I can't take a pair and put it at home, sit there like a little adult, others used to talk, always greeted each other with a smile, my family is far behind, one by one people are not big, but the temper is not small."

Qiang Hu asked with jealousy.

Zhang Zhongxin said Of course, don't look at who the seven of them are teaching, didn't you see Xiaobao and Juan Juan, otherwise you wouldn't be jealous to death? How can the immortal methods be comparable to mortals? Ay~! I don't know if my son and daughter-in-law ran over and suffered along the way, and when this time happened, I really got Luoyang or the capital to be an official, don't let the two children run around and suffer crimes.

Sighing softly, Zhang Zhong put on a smiling face and said: "Brother Qianghu, this is not easy to do, send your little baby to me, see if you can play with Xiaobei and them, and stay for a while." ”

"This ...... My two big babies are not easy to manage, one is not careful, people will run away, no matter how you fight, you are not obedient, put you there, isn't it causing you trouble? ”

Qianghu is really tempted, not to mention whether he can learn to be as sensible as other people's babies, even eating and drinking under the mountain is better than on the mountain, but I have heard that when Zhang Zhong came, the seven little babies had their own big house, and there were also the kind with wheels below, and there were special doctors to take care of them.

If you really send it down, don't worry about getting sick, eat well, play well, and even be able to follow other people's babies and classmates to read and write, look at other people's babies, they can actually write their names on the ground with branches, if you learn it, you will meet people from other villages in the future, squatting there to write your own name, oops, that's really a long face, now you can only envy other people's babies.

Zhang Zhong saw that there was a little meaning in Qianghu's words, and immediately said: "Don't be afraid, the baby is running around to find something to play, I have a lot of toys there, as long as there is a baby to play, it will be stable, this matter is settled, and when I go back at night, I will take it away, and there will be many people." ”

At this time, Qianghu no longer insisted, happily agreed, and suddenly remembered something, and said: "Brother Zhang, it's better to do this, I'll find people from other villages to pick fruits together, so that your family can make more wine." ”

"Really? The Qianghu brother has helped me a lot, drink. Zhang Zhong was completely relieved at this time, picked up the bowl and drank it up.
