Chapter 42 Big Deals

"Yes. Han Niu'er seemed to remember something, and hurriedly said: "Daddy Xi also means this, let the third girl be sure to give a reply today, if you let the people of Liu's shop get the news, you will definitely have to fight with us, I heard that the shopkeeper Liu has visited the inn where the guests are staying." Fortunately, the guests found us first, otherwise they would have to be cheaper. ”

Zhuang Mei's face was solemn, she looked at the expectant eyes around her, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Thank you for your kindness, then according to everyone's meaning, let's take this business!"

For a while, everyone was smiling, talking about the good situation one after another.

Jiang Yutang saw Zhuang Meiyan coming outside the courtyard alone, his expression was a little melancholy, so he quietly followed.

Zhuang Meiyan came to the courtyard, heard the footsteps behind him, and naturally guessed who it was, so he said in a low voice: "Brother Jiang, what do you think of this matter?"

Jiang Yutang groaned: "Meiyan is really not at ease. ”

Zhuang Meiyan smiled mockingly, and said: "Maybe it's because Meiyan is too worried, but I just feel that a big happy event has fallen from the sky, and I always don't believe it, but it seems to be in a dream." If it is called Meiyan, I can't find a reason not to accept this deal. ”

Jiang Yutang nodded slightly, and said steadily: "Be careful to travel the 10,000-year-old ship, it's right to think about it more." However, Daddy Xi is also a veteran of business for many years, and I believe there will be no mistake. In this way, since you are not sure, I will help you find out when I go back, if it is a lie, we will quit this business. ”

Zhuang Meiyan thought about it for a while, and felt that what he said was very reasonable, in terms of experience, Father Xi had more than himself, and he would definitely be cautious, and Brother Jiang also had experienced people, well-informed, and it was even more reassuring for him to check it, so Zhuang Meiyan readily agreed.

On the second day, Jiang Yutang asked Han Niu'er to bring a message, saying, let it go.

Zhuang Meiyan had a stone in her heart to the ground, and she was happily gathered at the moment. The wine shed should be expanded, the cellar should be dug again, the wine jar should be prepared, and all kinds of food supplies for brewing should be handed over to Han Niu'er to purchase.

In the evening, when Han Niu'er came back, everything was ready, except for the wine jar. It turned out that the guests thought that the flat bottom altar in the town was not beautiful enough, and they had already prepared it, saying that they would send someone to send it the next day.

After another night, the wine jar was delivered, but it was not necessarily unusual, but it was smaller than the previous jar with a bottle mouth, the bottle was tall, and the belly was round. Zhuang Meiyan took a closer look, and couldn't help laughing, he thought it was a good deal, it turned out that people had long considered this layer, his wine jar had a larger capacity than ordinary wine jars, and it could hold at least nearly one-third more wine. From this point of view, this man is a veteran of trading, and he is actually too worried.

This is the biggest business that Zhuang Meiyan has received since he opened the winery, and the whole family is very happy, even the old lady is smiling. Seeing the satisfied appearance of the family, Zhuang Meiyan felt a little relieved in her heart, after all, the purpose of the struggle is to make the whole family happy, and now her younger brother is studying very hard every day, Zhuang Meiyan originally planned to take advantage of the warmer climate in spring to send Rong Xi to study in the school in the town. Since I have made money this time, wouldn't it be better to invite a gentleman to teach my studies at home. Mother was reluctant to let Rong Xi leave, so she had the best of both worlds.

Zhuang Meiyan was immersed in her imagination, and Chunju next to her was also looking forward to the future, holding her chin, squinting her eyes and saying: "Madam, Miss, I made money this time, let's build a big house, add some furniture or something." ”

Zhuang Meiyan woke up suddenly, and looked around, the old house was indeed a little short, and the wall was still the mud wall that was customary in the countryside. The house was empty, and there was no decent furniture at all. The only piece of furniture was a cabinet made of old elm wood on the kang, which was so old that even the paint was about to fall off.

Rong Xi reads and practices calligraphy every day, and the so-called desk is just a table built with a few boards, and there are really a lot of places where silver is needed at home.

She smiled slightly: "Okay, when we make money in the future, we will definitely replace all these things, and replace everything with new ones, even the people." ”

Chunju nodded again and again, repeating: "Yes, yes, what Miss said is right, everything will be replaced with a new one, even people--"

She suddenly became uneasy, and looked at Zhuang Meiyan in a daze.

Zhuang Meiyan deliberately said with a straight face: "That's it, buy a few big girls and come back." ”

Chunju pursed her lips and quietly lowered her head. Sister-in-law Yang secretly covered her mouth and smiled. Chunju reproached: "Sister-in-law Yang, what are you happy about?"

Zhuang Meiyan pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Silly girl, what can you do when you buy a few girls back, naturally let you train and serve the old lady and the seventh son." ”

Chunju showed a smile and said, "Miss is trying to scare people." ”

Seven days passed in the blink of an eye, and the wine jar was out of the cellar that morning. The carriage had already been hired and rushed to the open space in front of Zhuang Meiyan's courtyard, and everyone was busy in front of the carriage, paving the cart with straw, so as not to break the wine jar on the rugged mountain road.

Suddenly, Yang Xiucai's exclamation came from the cellar.

"Oh no, someone stole alcohol. ”

Everyone hurriedly ran over to take a look, only to see Yang Xiucai lying on the floor of the wine cellar with scratches on his face. Everyone hurriedly pulled Yang Xiucai up and asked.

Yang Xiucai couldn't help but say bitterly: "Just now I saw someone probing his brain in the wine cellar, so I came to take a look, but I was knocked unconscious all of a sudden, and I woke up and saw that there was a jar of wine missing." I'm afraid it was stolen by thieves. ”

Aunt Zhang frowned and said: "This morning, I also saw a few boys from the neighboring village have been wandering around the village, and they must have been hungry for the third girl's wine, and they didn't have copper money to buy wine, so they had bad intentions. ”

Aunt Li hurriedly shouted: "Han Niu'er is not going to catch up with them soon, but you can't spare these little rabbit cubs." What can I do if I don't have a jar?"

Han Niu'er listened to her mother's instructions and immediately led a few young men to chase them out of the village, and Zhuang Meiyan hurriedly shouted behind them: "Just scare and scare, it's just some ignorant children, don't be too difficult for them." ”

Everyone was busy counting them, but luckily only one jar was stolen, and there was no damage. Zhuang Meiyan took the initiative and exchanged the usual wine jar for three jars of wine, believing that the guests would not find them trouble because of just one jar of wine.

Then Zhuang Meiyan watched the wine be carried onto the car one by one. Delivered to the town, the delivery was completed, the guests were very satisfied with the quality of the wine, and all the money was paid to Daddy Xi on the spot.

Zhuang Meiyan's family got this sum of silver taels, and they were naturally overjoyed, discussing how to spend, how to distribute, and other trivial matters.

Since this big customer ordered a batch of wine from her, the news of Zhuang Meiyan's ability to make wine has spread in the town, and everyone knows that 'Baihua Brew' is made by her, and some people even give her the title of "Female Wine Fairy". The restaurants in the town all came to order Zhuang Meiyan's new wine in person.

Life is getting busy again.

In a blink of an eye, March is approaching, spring returns to the earth, the world is full of green, and the fragrance of flowers is wafting.

This is the most beautiful day in spring, all kinds of mountain flowers in the mountains and forests are blooming, and the mountains and fields are full of purple and red. Standing on a high place overlooking the earth, I saw that the south slope was covered with dense forests, the poplar trees were tall and majestic, and there were patches of rhododendrons growing in the forest, the color was dazzling and dazzling, looking at it from afar, the clouds were steaming and the clouds were beautiful. Because of the warm spring and the melting of the snow, the water in the mountain stream soars, overflowing the swamp, overflowing the poplar trees growing on the bank, the banks are full of all kinds of flowers, and many of them can't even be named, their colorful opening gives the river a carpet-like edge, which is very beautiful.

Zhuang Meiyan stood on the hillside, looking left and right, only feeling that the mountains and forests in the north were beautiful in spring, and the scenery was beautiful, but it was something he had never seen in the southern mansion before.

At the beginning of the busy spring, the business of the winery faded a lot, so Zhuang Meiyan had time to spare, so he wanted to take a look at the scenery in the mountains and forests. She also saw a wine recipe in an ancient book, collecting the buds of various plants in spring, taking the clear water from the spring in the mountains and soaking it for 7749 hours, choosing the time when the sun is beginning to rise and the yang energy is in full bloom, brewing the lower altar, and then taking it out of the soil every 7749 days. It is said that this wine is also known as "spring in the world", its color is green like tea, fragrant, sweet taste, has the effect of nourishing the brain and benefiting the marrow, prolonging life.

Zhuang Meiyan is a person who makes wine, and she studies the ancient book given to her by Duanmu Gongzi every day, and after reading the recipe, she wants to try it, and makes wine every day, and she never gets tired of it.

She felt that this recipe was more suitable for her mother and Xiaobai to drink, so she thought of collecting leaves and buds in the mountains and forests, and concocted them in the same way. She sneaked up the mountain alone, since the last snow-capped mountain accident, Chunju was so scared like something, she didn't even let her out of the house, and after a little walk around the village, she followed behind her ass step by step, lest she make a mistake.

Zhuang Meiyan couldn't cry or laugh, she knew that Chunju was also kind, but she couldn't help but underestimate herself. Now that the spring flowers are blooming, and the winter snow on the southern slope has melted, what danger can there be? She secretly complained in her heart that Chunju was making a big fuss, but she couldn't help Chunju's nagging, so she quietly slipped out while she was not paying attention, and only told Sister-in-law Yang to go to Aunt Li's house in the village to borrow a trick.

She walked down the hill and walked through the forest, the forest was quiet, the azaleas were bright, a ray of sunlight shone on her face through the gap in the dense forest, and she couldn't help but look up at the sky with squinting eyes.

"Click!" suddenly heard a crisp sound, like the sound of a dead branch being trampled.

Zhuang Meiyan was immediately vigilant.

The jungle is dense, and everything is reviving at this time, what kind of beast is it?
