Chapter 12 Wine
"Look, I was talking about it just now, isn't it the same now?" His mother was laughing on the sidelines.
"I remember that our grapes were small, sour and astringent last year, why are our grapes so delicious this year?" His father said with a puzzled expression.
"Hey, do you think it will be because I repaired this grape seedling this spring?" His mother thought for a moment, then said
"It's really possible that we didn't prune the grapes last year, so it tasted bad, and you pruned the branches of the grapes this year, and it tasted so good, you have to prune the grapes every year after you come." His father said the same
"It seems that this is the case, by the way, Xiaofan, how many of our grapes have grown?" Mother asked him!
"There are quite a lot of grapes on the glucose, I took a look, there are about two or three hundred bunches like this!" Li Xiaofan made a rough estimate, and then said his number!
"In this way, won't our family have a considerable income again!" His mother said with a smile, with a smile on her face!
While his father and mother were still planting strawberries in the backyard, and his grandfather was also taking care of the herbs, he returned home, and then washed all the jars he bought a few days ago and put them into the space!
Then he also followed into the space, and came to the front of the saplings that were cut yesterday, Li Xiaofan was also stunned by the scene here!
He put more than a dozen kinds of fruit trees in the space, but the best growing vine was the grapevine, because the grapevine has the shortest growth cycle, so he grew the fastest!
The other trees are still just over two meters long, but some of them are already bearing fruit.
Probably because of the space water that was poured on these vines yesterday, these vines are growing very quickly!
The vines, which were originally placed directly next to the saplings, have now climbed up to the top of the saplings!
And bunches of grapes hung on the vines, purple, green, and there were several kinds of grapes hanging on the vines!
Li Xiaofan clearly remembered that his vine was purple grapes, but he didn't expect it to mutate here and grow several different colors of grapes.
He planted three vines in this space, but the fruit setting rate of these three vines was too high.
On top of the three vines, each vine has at least 40 bunches of grapes. And the grapes in the space are not like the grapes outside, the grapes in the space are so big that they fall directly to the ground.
If you take out the grapes in the space, you might think of them as fruits like apples.
The grapes in the space have been mutated, and each grape is the size of an apple.
This is also the most shocking thing for Li Xiaofan, he also knows that he can't take these grapes out now, and if they are taken out, they will be discovered, but it is not easy to explain the origin of these grapes.
He decided to start with grapes from a vine to make wine.
He first picked all the grapes, then took each one of them and put them in a pot.
He proceeded step by step with the method of how to make wine that he had previously found on the Internet.
This time, the water used to make wine was from a spring in the space, and he wanted to try how good the wine was made from the spring water in the space.
He put the grapes directly into the jar without washing them, because he knew that there were no bacteria in this space, so he was not afraid of bacteria invading.
According to the method found on the Internet, he put a layer of grapes, put a layer of rock sugar, and then after filling the jar with grapes, he began to pour the space spring water.
After adding a part of the space spring water, he poured some liquor into it, and the liquor played an introductory role.
After these procedures, he closed the lid of the jar, then wrapped the lid of the blanket in brown paper and covered it with a layer of mud.
After fermenting like this for a while, the remaining residue is filtered out, and then left for a while.
Just one vine of grapes allowed him to make five large jars of wine.
So when he finished, there were sixteen jars on the ground.
As soon as he got up on the morning of the second day, Li Xiaofan said hello to his father and mother and went out.
He rode his bicycle all the way to the warehouse on the street, and put a variety of vegetables on top of each one.
Then after finding a place to eat something on the street, he began to wander around again.
This time, he was going to sell some saffron, and when he was picking vegetables in the space, he picked some of the saffron and sprinkled the saffron seeds into the land.
He packed the saffron in a small box he had bought last time, and then boarded his bike and headed to the largest pharmacy in town.
The largest herb shop in their area is the "People's Pharmacy", but they also have a street here that specializes in buying medicinal herbs.
But there were only a dozen or so shops on this street that bought medicinal herbs, and these shops were all in the business of traders, and he didn't quite believe that these shops could give him too high prices, so he didn't go to these shops.
He pedaled his bicycle and rushed straight to the People's Pharmacy.
The People's Pharmacy is located in the middle of the South Street of the county seat. There is still a lot of traffic there, and at noon, the cars there can be said to be crowded, but fortunately it is morning, and there are not many people.
The journey was quite smooth, and he did not encounter a traffic jam in the morning, and it was only half past seven o'clock, and he came to the outside of the People's Pharmacy.
At this time, the People's Pharmacy had not yet opened, so he parked his car outside the People's Pharmacy and sat down on a chair outside the People's Pharmacy.
Time gradually passed, the time came to eight o'clock, the flow of people on the street began to increase, and the clerks of the People's Pharmacy began to open the door.
Since it had just opened, there were not many people, and it seemed a little deserted, and the clerk did not hurry to open the door first and start boiling water, and then he was busy with his usual things.
Seeing this, Li Xiaofan walked in, he went straight to the front desk, and then looked at the clerk who was busy, and he didn't bother with it.
The clerk was busy for a while, and seemed to find Li Xiaofan walking in, and then hurriedly asked, "Hello, this gentleman, I'm sorry I didn't see you just now, is there anything wrong with you?" ”
Listening to the clerk's polite question, Li Xiaofan hurriedly said: "Hello, I want to ask, do you accept medicinal materials here, I want to sell a little wild medicinal materials to you." ”
"Of course, we have to collect medicinal materials, we have been purchasing all kinds of medicinal materials here for a long time, as long as you take them out and pass our identification, if it is true, we will buy your medicinal materials, but if it is a fake medicinal material, then I'm sorry." After listening to Li Xiaofan's words, the clerk hurriedly said.
Hearing the words in the clerk's heart, Li Xiaofan nodded, and then said, "Then will you identify medicinal materials?" ”
"This gentleman said with a smile, I will identify medicinal materials, however, there are not many medicinal materials that I can identify, if the medicinal materials you take out are very precious medicinal materials, then you have to wait, and when an expert in our store comes, he will let him identify it for you." The clerk said with a humble face.
"Okay, I'm here to sell saffron medicinal herbs today, can you identify saffron?" Li Xiaofan no longer hesitated too much, and hurriedly said the saffron.
"Saffron, I can see it, but I haven't studied it very deeply." After listening to it as a clerk, I said!
"It's okay, it's okay, I'll take it out for you to take a look at, and then if you can't identify it, just wait for the experts in your store to come and see, how about it?" Li Xiaofan listened to the clerk's words, saw the clerk's cramped appearance, and then said.
"Okay, okay, I'll take a look at it first, if it's not correct, please forgive me, this gentleman." After listening to Li Xiaofan's words, the clerk said happily.
At the moment when he spoke, Li Xiaofan had already taken out the saffron in his box, and there were three saffron in his box.
When the clerk saw the saffron that Li Xiaofan took out, he didn't hesitate too much, and then gently picked up a saffron, put it to his nose and sniffed it.
"Sir, this is indeed wild saffron, but it seems to be of a bit high quality, and if I had to give a price exactly, I really wouldn't be able to give it." The clerk put down the saffron and said with an embarrassed face.
"It's okay, it's okay, then wait for the experts in your store to come." Li Xiaofan listened, and after the clerk said, he waved his hand and said.
The clerk put the box away and sent it to Li Xiaofan, who took the box and held it in his hand, and then walked to the side and sat down.
The clerk saw where Li Xiaofan was sitting, and then went to make a cup of tea for Li Xiaofan and brought it to Li Xiaofan's side.
"Is the gentleman here just to sell these three saffron plants?" The clerk also sat aside and chatted with Li Xiaofan.
"This time, I am also going to buy some seeds of medicinal herbs, those medicinal herbs in the house have been planted for a long time, so now I am ready to buy some seeds of medicinal herbs, so that those medicinal herbs at home will not break the chain!" Li Xiaofan hurriedly said after listening to the clerk's words.
"Oh, by the way, do you have any seeds for medicinal herbs in your store?" Before the clerk could open his mouth to ask, Li Xiaofan asked again.
"Yes, we have some seeds of medicinal herbs in our store, but there are not many types, that is, several, I don't know what kind of seeds of medicinal herbs you are going to buy, sir?" The clerk replied.
"I want to buy some Ganoderma lucidum seeds and purple ginseng seeds this time, if there are seeds of Dendrobium officinalis, I also want them, I wonder if you have these seeds in your store?" Li Xiaofan asked the clerk.
"Well, there are two of these three kinds of seeds that Mr. said, we have them here, Ganoderma lucidum seeds and Dendrobium officinale seeds, we have them here, but we don't have purple ginseng seeds in our branch!
Purple ginseng seeds may only be available at the head office. The clerk pondered for a moment, then said.
Li Xiaofan nodded lightly, although there are no seeds of purple ginseng here, but there are two kinds that are already good.
Just as Li Xiaofan was chatting with the clerk, an old man with flowery hair walked in at the door.
"Come early, Xiaolin, I thought I was early enough, but I didn't expect that you came earlier than me, and you had already opened the door of the store." The old man with flowery hair looked at the clerk sitting next to him, and said!
