American Ranch

Chapter 177 It's Almost Gone (23)

After arranging the Bonebreaker, Qin Yi also had something on his mind temporarily, but before he was free, the old Pete of the vineyard called and said that the last batch of grapes could be harvested, and asked him what to do with it.

Regarding the handling of grapes, Qin Yi told Old Pete to sell them to wine merchants. This time, Old Pete called to ask him what he meant. He didn't forget Qin Yi's previous arrangements, but wanted to make sure whether Qin Yi had changed. idea.

If old Pete hadn't called, it would be fine to sell the grapes after they were harvested, but now that this matter is brought up again, Qin Yi really has a different idea.

During this period of time, Qin Yi's views on fruit wine have changed somewhat.

Fruit wine is rich in aura, which is entirely because the fruit absorbs a lot of aura in the space. During the winemaking process, this aura is transferred into the wine.In this way, is it possible to achieve the same effect by adding spiritual spring water when making wine with ordinary fruits?
Qin Yi thinks it's totally feasible, but after all, ordinary fruits don't have space for delicious fruits, so the wine brewed with ordinary fruits and spiritual spring water, although not inferior to space fruit wine in terms of aura, should be inferior in taste and aroma!

But even if it is inferior, it should be a good fruit wine. After all, the refreshing feeling of aura cannot be faked.

With these thoughts in mind, Qin Yi planned to brew such a kind of blended spiritual energy fruit wine, and the batch of grapes in the vineyard is the best experimental object.The winery in the vineyard is well-equipped and the winemaking capacity is not low, which can fully meet his needs.

Therefore, Qin Yi asked Old Pete to keep this batch of grapes, and arranged for the workers to do a good job of sorting, cleaning, etc. He would add some spiritual spring water in a few days, and the fermentation could be officially started.

Qin Yi is looking forward to the results of this idea. If the blended wine tastes good, he can also brew different grades of fine wine according to the amount of spirit spring water added. With pure improved fruit wine, it can meet the needs of people of all levels. Completely occupy the field of fine wine and luxury goods!
However, these ideas will have to wait for a few days before they can be implemented, because it will be Halloween in two days, and Qin Yi is still looking forward to the first traditional festival of Laomei.

It's not that I'm interested in Laomei's festival, but because of Angel, the little girl has been talking about the festival for the past few days, looking forward to it all day long. When I asked her why, the little girl said that it was the first time to spend the festival with Uncle Yi , very happy!
Not only the little girl is looking forward to it, Susa and Ke Luo are also preparing with great interest.

Originally, Ke Luo had a film appointment and needed to return to Los Angeles, but she insisted on pushing it back for a few days, causing Trevor to call Qin Yi to complain, saying that it would affect Ke Luo's career, but Qin Yi gave him a bottle of fruit wine. Flicker passed.

Affecting Mao's career, Ke Luo's career is no longer in the entertainment industry, and now she is just letting her exercise her ability. After three or two years, she will come back to take care of the business.

Since everyone was looking forward to it, Qin Yi naturally couldn't let everyone down and joined in the preparations for Halloween.

Pumpkins are naturally indispensable for Halloween, but the vegetable garden on the ranch has only grown a little, so it is not enough to make jack-o-lanterns.

Qin Yi picked up the phone and called Hobbs.

"Hobbs, do you still have the little round pumpkins from the farm?"

Qin Yi knew that the farm had grown a large piece of pumpkins, not only for his own needs, but also for sale. The buyers ranged from tourists to town residents.He asked this question because he didn't know if it was sold out. After all, it was during the Halloween season, and pumpkin sales were even hotter.

"Of course, I'm trying to get someone to send it to you."

Hobbs's side is in a mess, it should be taking tourists, Qin Yi didn't delay, "No, I'll go down and take them, just in time to see Amanda."

"OK then."

Hobbs didn't insist either. After all, it's a festival now, and the scale of domestic tourists is still the same. However, in the few days before Halloween, nearby residents have come out to play, and the farm is still very busy, and there is almost no manpower available.

"By the way, Yi, we plan to hold a party on Halloween. At that time, we will organize tourists to dress up and walk around with jack-o-lanterns, so that the farm can earn more on costume props and pumpkins!"

Hobbs talked about the farm plan with a smile, and Qin Yi thought it was pretty good, knowing that he was very busy, so Qin Yi didn't delay any longer, chatted casually, and hung up the phone.

In the afternoon, Qin Yi drove a pickup truck to the farm. First, he packed a half-backed small round pumpkin, and then came to Amanda's modeling house. There were domestic tourists and nearby residents, and there was a long queue waiting for Amanda. How about styling them!
It seems that Amanda's business is much better than before.

He came to the door and looked inside. Amanda was putting makeup on a little white girl, looking at the clothes and props. This little girl was dressed as a witch in a black robe, but with the baby fat face, there was no gloomy look of a witch. On the contrary, the whole person looks cuter!

Amanda was so involved that she didn't notice Qin Yi's arrival.

He stood at the door watching with interest for a while, and walked away quietly without disturbing her, but back in the car, he texted Amanda to come to the main house for dinner that night.

It should be busy recently, and she hasn't come to the main house for several days, and Angel still talks about her, saying that Aunt Amanda won't come to play with her anymore!
Back at the ranch, Qin Yi gave Ryan a large part of the pumpkins, and asked him to save some for the festival, and the rest for the ranch cowboys. How could there not be enough pumpkins for Halloween!

Back at the house, Angel had already come back from school, and when she saw Qin Yi, she immediately rushed forward.

"Uncle Yi! Hug!" The little girl opened her hands and looked up at him expectantly.

"Okay, Uncle likes holding Angel the most!" Qin Yi picked up the little girl and teased her, "An Qi, is school on holiday?"

"Yeah, tomorrow, the day after tomorrow." The little girl pointed with her little fingers and smiled happily, because she still prefers to play at home than to go to school, "Uncle Yi, Teacher Linna said, three days off!"

"It just so happened that Uncle Yi took Angel to play. By the way, Angel, Aunt Amanda will come over for dinner tonight."

"Wow, I miss Aunt Amanda so much!" The little girl put her arms around Qin Yi's neck, looking forward to it.

Qin Yi carried her into the house. Susa and Ke Luo were researching what kind of pumpkin pie to eat at night. It reminded him of the sweet potato pie that he had eaten before. He wondered if fried pumpkin pie would be delicious!

Well, I'll try it tonight.

It was not until 6 pm that Amanda called and said that she would come over in the evening, and it seemed that she had just left work.

Qin Yi made a dozen or so palm-sized pumpkin cakes with steamed pumpkin, flour, and sugar, and fried them in a pan. , with a greedy look, which made Ke Luo keep teasing her.

When the first pancake comes out of the pan, it is natural to give it to the long-awaited little girl first, but the little girl sees that everyone has not eaten yet, so she holds up the pancake on the small plate and invites everyone to eat together. very happy.

Qin Yi and Su Sa ate a little symbolically, but Ke Luo didn't know whether he really wanted to eat it or was teasing the little girl, so he took a big bite, half of the palm-sized pancake disappeared!
When Angel saw it, she immediately giggled, "Aunt Ke Luo has such a big mouth, she took a big bite, and it's almost gone!"
