Chapter 12: The Wine Is Made

On this day, when the Su family was finally busy working in the field, and when they rested and breathed a sigh of relief, Banxia moved a small wine jar and lifted the sealed oil paper on it.

The air is filled with the familiar aroma of wine, and the fruit wine is made!

When he scooped the wine with a spoon, Daddy Su's palms were sweating nervously. The red liquor, mixed with the pulp crumbs, fills the aroma.

Daddy Su tasted it: "It's the same as the last taste, the purity is higher, mellow and lush, and the lips and teeth are fragrant." I couldn't help but feel a little more confident.

"I'll find the village chief's house to borrow an oxcart in a while, and pull a few jars to set up a stall in the town to sell them first!" Daddy Su couldn't wait.

Banxia raised her forehead, and finally knew where Su Xiaomei's quick temper came from: "Dad, there is one last step, and the wine has not been filtered yet." ”

"Filtering? What does this mean? ”

"You see, there is a lot of pulp and skin in this wine, which affects the taste and beauty, and we have to find some gauze and sift them out, and the rest is pure fruit juice."

Father Su hurriedly said: "Dashan, eldest daughter-in-law, go find a clean wooden basin, and then find a small wine jar that is washed and dried." ”

The two went in a hurry.

The family tinkered for a moment: the ruby-like liquid, slightly swaying in the jar, a little charming, a little mysterious, made people feel incredible, and just wanted to slowly feel the deep mellowness.

I don't know how much higher this grade than just now.

Everyone had a smile on their faces, and their hearts were full of confidence and hope.

A large vat, 100 catties of grapes, out of 110 catties of wine, divided into 220 small jars.

A small wine jar is three wen, half a catty of grapes is a penny, and the cost is no more than five wen and a small jar when adding sugar.

Daddy Su smiled with an old face: "Okay, good, good!" Usually we go to the town to beat the rice wine for 50 wen a jar, this wine no matter the color, the taste is better than rice wine. ”

Su Dashan touched the back of his head and said with a smile: "Even if this wine is only sold for twenty wen, we will make money, in a few days, we will go to the town to set up a stall, brew so much, the town can't sell it, just go to the county to sell, such a good wine will definitely not worry about selling." ”

"Big brother is right, I'm going to help sell wine too." Su Xiaomei raised her hand excitedly.

"Dad, big brother, don't rush to set up a stall first, let's go to the restaurant in the town first, if there is a restaurant at one time, it will also save your father and mother to run errands, if not, we will do it according to what everyone says."

"The second sister-in-law is right." Su Xiaomei immediately shifted the battle line, and also helped to come up with an idea, "Or, go to Jinmanlou to take a look, our fish are sold there, and the shopkeeper is fair to give money." ”

"That's a good idea, when the time comes, my little sister and I will go and see it together."

"And how much do we sell this wine?" Su Liushi threw out a key question.

"This wine is better than rice wine, and the price cannot be lower than rice wine." Daddy Su said in a deep voice.

"So, how much is the right order?"

Daddy Su: "...", he was stunned.

Banxia smiled: "Daddy, no matter what happens in the future, now this wine is the first in Dongyang Kingdom, and the price must not be low, why don't you see how much Jin Manlou is willing to pay first?" In any case, it should not be lower than the price of rice wine. ”

On a sunny morning, Daddy Su, Xiaomei Su and Bai Banxia drove the oxcart to the vicinity of Jinmanlou.

A two-storey restaurant stands on the street, magnificent, and the gold-inlaid plaque at the door reads the three words of the big golden building.

Daddy Su stood at the door of Jinmanlou, with the shallow experience of selling dried chrysanthemums before, and now he is the identity of a grandfather, he has the confidence, straightens his clothes, and strides in.

Banxia followed behind with a jar of wine, and the little sister watched the ox cart at the door.

Xiao Er greeted him with a smile and joked to Banxia: "The lady of the Su family caught another fish today?" But do you want to sell fish? ”

Father Su looked at Xiao Er's kind smile, no different from them and other well-dressed guests, and quietly let go of his clenched palm.

Banxia raised the wine jar in his hand: "Today I came with my father, I have a good thing to give to the shopkeeper!" ”

Xiao Er smiled apologetically at the two: "The shopkeeper is not here today, I went to the county, and I will come back in a few days." ”

Daddy Su sighed, and just raised his feet to leave, Xiao Er's words changed, "However, our owner is in the store, and I'll help you pass it on, but I don't know if the owner is willing to see it." ”

Daddy Su said annoyingly little brother. Banxia hurriedly put the small wine jar in his arms into the small second-hand, and stuffed a string of copper plates by the way: "Please also ask the little brother to do his best, and he will definitely give this wine to the owner." ”

The time for a cup of tea passed.

……

The time of a pillar of incense has passed.

……

Father Su gradually became a little restless, and his heart, which was full of hope, slowly lost his confidence: "Second daughter-in-law, is this a success or a failure?" Cheng, why didn't the owner call us up, no, the little second brother never came down, should we go or not? ”

Banxia knew that the other party was fighting psychological warfare with them, and tried to keep the price to the lowest: "Dad, don't worry, the owner is naturally very satisfied, otherwise the little second brother would have come down and kicked us out, how can we wait until now?" It must be that our wine tastes good, and the owner is tasting it! Wait, the owner will invite us up in a moment. ”

Daddy Su listened to Banxia's words, and thought about it, and even if Jin Manlou didn't want it, it was a big deal to set up a stall to sell it at home, it was just a toss, and such a good wine couldn't be sold if you didn't believe it.

Thinking like this, the original anxious heart slowly settled down.

After a while, Xiao Er came down and said to the two with a smile: "Two, the owner is invited, please come with me." ”

Daddy Su straightened his waist, followed Xiao Er to the second floor, and stopped in front of a box. Banxia nodded and thanked: "My little sister is still at the door of the restaurant, and I bother my little brother to help take care of one or two." ”

Xiao Er knew that the owner was satisfied with this wine, and the two families might come and go back and forth in the future, so he hurriedly agreed: "Yes." ”

Pushing open the door, a man sat at a table by the window, with a wine jar and a wine glass, presumably having tasted wine.

Look at this man again, the white-clothed Shengxue, only the cuffs of the placket are embroidered with some simple cyan lines, the long hair is simply tied up, the words are smiling and groaning, and the thick long eyelashes soften the original rigid and powerful outline, what a beautiful boy in white clothes!

"Sit down."

Daddy Su was sitting in a precarious position: "Boss, we are here to sell wine, this wine can be brewed in the entire Dongyang Kingdom, and the taste is very good!" ”

The man in white tapped his palm with a fan: "I'm a relatively straightforward person, the rice wine in the town sells for fifty wen a jar, and I will give you fifty wen a jar of your wine!" ”

Father Su was overjoyed in his heart, his face was silent, and he put his trembling hand behind his back: "Rice wine is not as delicious as my wine!" ”

"The price of rice wine is only fifty yuan, I buy wine from you at the price of fifty yuan, if you want to make money, you have to sell it at a higher price, fifty yuan is a lot!" The boy in white is light and light.
