And if that happens, she doesn't want the brewery to shut down because of her.

Therefore, it is necessary to train several successors so that they can also make wine independently.

Of course, this is to pick someone who can be absolutely trusted.

Xu Jiaojiao already had several candidates in mind, and planned to let each of them be responsible for brewing a grain wine.

The liquor she brews now is actually grain wine, but there is a difference between grain and grain.

For example, sweet potatoes, potatoes, and cassava are all very high in yield and cheap, but their protein content is too low, the pectin content is too high, and the wine tasted poor, so they can only be listed as third-class raw materials for winemaking.

In modern times, blended wine has been developed based on them, simulating the taste of pure grain wine, and the cost of this wine is much lower than that of pure grain wine.

This raw material grain wine, Xu Jiaojiao is not currently brewing.

For example, barley, wheat, peas, rice, glutinous rice, buckwheat, corn, etc., some will produce miscellaneous flavors in the process of fermentation, some fat and fiber content will affect the flavor of liquor, and some high viscosity will reduce the fermentation efficiency, but their protein content is relatively high.

And what can be regarded as a first-class raw material, it has to be sorghum, which has been introduced before, so I will not repeat it.

In addition to the raw materials, there are other factors that affect the quality of liquor, in short, it is very complicated, and it depends on individual skills.

Xu Jiaojiao plans to teach Xu Lao Wu the brewing technology of sorghum wine.

The fifth brother's kiln has already accepted apprentices, Duan Hongmei's two brothers have learned to make kilns, the Duan family has great strength, hard work and steadfastness, with the share of the Duan family, the fifth can spare time to participate in the operation of the winery.

It stands to reason that the business of firing porcelain is not bad, but in this world, there are too few people who are qualified to appreciate the craftsmanship, unlike Xu Jiaojiao, who held ceramics to the sky in her previous life, so they are not too valued, and customers prefer that the things contained in them are better.

Xu Lao Wu is a person who is knowledgeable, responsible, and not pedantic, and he is the most important thing in his generation, Xu Jiaojiao taught him the most high-end sorghum wine brewing technology, and Xu Jiaojiao is also relieved.

The second is rice wine, rice is a local crop with a high yield, and it is also one of the main raw materials in the Xu family winery, Xu Jiaojiao taught the rice winemaking technique to Xu Lao'er, who has the most experience in serving rice fields.

There is also wheat, which is also a more local crop, wheat wine-making technology, Xu Jiaojiao temporarily taught Xu Zhang's family. Of course, this is an expedient measure, Xu Zhang's is very busy, and he is old, so it is not suitable. She originally wanted to teach Erlang, but Erlang is now in the county seat, so she can only teach Xu Zhang's family first, and then see if Erlang has time to come back in the future.

There are several younger generations in the family, but they are too young to talk about it later.

The main ones are these three kinds of wine, and the other glutinous rice wine and the like are the icing on the cake, and the output of raw materials is small, so there is no one.

In addition to the sake brewer, the one you need is the bookkeeper. Xu Jiaojiao was in charge before, and Xu Zhang's side assisted, and later Xu Jiaojiao deliberately taught the second girl to plan the plate, and found that this girl was crackling and dialing in a few days, which is a more suitable successor.

Although Er Ya is a bit of an anomaly when he is a bookkeeper, the account room should generally be a man, Mr. and Mr., but in Xu Jiaojiao's place, this is naturally not a matter.

……

Xu Zhang went back to the house and rummaged through the boxes.

Xu Youde lay on the kang and rested in the morning, "What's wrong?" ”

"Jiaojiao took a large order for sorghum wine, this year's sorghum production is not high, the selling price is expensive, Jiaojiao has the silver on hand to put into production the new production line of the winery, I am afraid that she will not have a living stool in hand, let's take out the silver stored at home and help collect some sorghum ......"

"Ahem."

Xu Youde almost choked on a puff of cigarette, and hurriedly got up, "I said that you old woman, why are you in a hurry if you haven't yet...... Didn't Jiaojiao speak, and didn't see that she was short of silver, you ......"

"What am I?" Xu Zhangshi glared at him, "The silver is all earned back by Jiaojiao, and if you don't earn it back after a while to buy sorghum, you old guy still looks like a reluctant ......."

As he spoke, he didn't stop in his hands, and Xu Youde couldn't forcibly stop it, so he had to watch the box being opened.

Xu Zhang rummaged through it and grabbed a few silver tickets.

"Huh?"

Xu Zhangshi pinched his hands together and touched them again.

Xu Youde's heart mentioned his throat.

"That's not right!" Xu Zhang exclaimed, "This is not the silver ticket I put in, this is ......"

Speaking of silver tickets, Xu Zhang's is no stranger now, large and small denominations, I don't know how many have passed through her hand, every time she receives it, she has carefully checked it, and now these few in her hand look very similar, but the feel is obviously different.

"Old man, this silver ticket is wrong, it's fake...... Thieves have come! Catch the thief, catch the thief......" Xu Zhang was a little panicked, this is dozens of taels of silver.

Xu Youde sighed secretly, "This ...... Are you mistaken? ”

"How is that possible?" Xu Zhang's mouth shouted, but he held the silver ticket in his hand and looked at it in the light, and finally said, "Fake, this is definitely fake!" Ouch, who killed a thousand knives, stole the money for the old lady's coffin, you take it to buy the coffin......"

Xu Youde frowned embarrassedly, but he couldn't say anything, the scientific examination hadn't started yet, and I didn't know if the silver had been spent, and if he had bought it, if he admitted it, Xu Zhang's might not stop, and rushed to the county seat to ask for silver...... In that case, wouldn't all his hard work be in vain? It's going to have to be delayed for a few days, but looking at it like this, it won't be delayed for a few days...... Forget it, if you can drag it out for a day, it's a day.

Xu Youde turned his mind around, Xu Zhangshi howled a few times, and when he saw that Xu Youde was silent, he immediately said, "You dead old man, you are still indifferent when you lose all the money, isn't it you who stole it?" ”

Xu Youde held a dry tobacco pouch.

Xu Zhang's just asked casually, they are decades of old couples, and nothing like this has ever happened before, whenever there is a big thing in the family, Xu Youde has discussed it with her.

The silver ticket was stolen, but it was replaced with a fake one, this must be afraid of being discovered by her, a thief will worry about this kind of thing? Only someone who cares about her would do that, right? And a foreign thief will not scruple about her, and if he does, he will not come to steal her silver ticket.

These eighty percent are thieves.

Xu Zhang is not stupid, after calming down, he thought about it carefully and came to a conclusion.
