After he and his mother-in-law separated, he built a house and stocked a warehouse full of grain and

Shui Qing didn't panic at all when asked, and said naturally: "Mom, you don't know if I can make wine? How could I know how to make wine before?"

Not your son-in-law yet, I saw an ancient book a few days ago that recorded the method of making wine, and we thought we would give it a try ourselves. "

Fan Jin's status as a scholar is very useful, and he can be pushed to him no matter what.

Moreover, people in this dynasty had a natural admiration for books and word recognition. They always felt that there was everything in books, and scholars could understand it after reading it.

The same goes for Mother Hu.

She looked at Fan Jin who was making love. The mother-in-law became more and more satisfied with her son-in-law. She couldn't help but praise: "My son-in-law is still awesome!"

Fan Jin, who was kneading dough, paused with his long body, and his ears were stained pink.

After praising Fan Jin, Shui Qing started talking about serious matters: "Mom, the book says that it takes two rounds to make rice wine, and the last pound of rice can produce about two pounds of rice wine;

A rice wine seller in Guangning Prefecture needs to bring his own bottle to hold 22 cents per catty. The wine shop provides bamboo tubes for [-] cents per catty. Most of the people around Niutou Town are farmers and are not as generous as the people in the city. How about six cents per pound? "

It's normal for things in towns to be cheaper than in cities, but they won't be much cheaper, because those who are reluctant to buy them will eventually be reluctant to part with them.

Their target group is those who can afford and are willing to buy. If the price is too low, they will just think it is worse than the ones in the city and go to the city to buy. Therefore, they need to set a price that is lower than the price in the city but not too low. Much price.

Although Hu's mother is illiterate, her family's business is selling pork, and she knows how to settle the accounts if money comes in from time to time.

He immediately calculated: "One catty of rice costs nine cents, and two catties of rice wine produce sixteen cents of rice wine. In other words, nine cents can be turned into 32 cents, and the net profit is 23 cents!"

My God, this makes more money than your father selling pork. "

Mother Hu looked at Shui Qing, surprised and surprised.

Shui Qing feels that the two industries cannot be compared together, "It's different with dad. He doesn't cut the pig grass, feed the pigs, and clean the pig pens. He just buys the whole pig, then kills it and sells it. It’s normal to earn a few extra cents for a pound of pork.”

If a pig butcher earns dozens of cash for a pound of pork, then tomorrow the pig butcher will be able to break down the door of his parents’ house!

Mother Hu was still very satisfied and said optimistically: "We don't need to grow rice, we just need to buy it. You said you can produce a batch of rice wine in four or five days. If you can earn hundreds of cash at a time, you will have half a tael of silver in a month." ”

Shui Qing thought to herself, it’s more than enough.

But she didn't say that it was better not to have high expectations at the beginning. The goal was set too high. If it was not achieved, it would easily damage morale.

If you set a small amount and your income exceeds the small amount, wouldn’t it be more joyful?

"Mom, I invited the women from the village to help me prepare lunch. They still have some work to do at home. Come tomorrow, mom, you won't have to work as hard as today to help me wash the dishes.

Fan Jin has already explained the brewing process to me in detail. I remember it well. I will start teaching you tomorrow. We still have a lot of rice at home. Let’s try to make fewer mistakes! "

Mother Hu was very excited when she heard this, and she kept nodding her head.

My daughter is right, you can’t go wrong! Rice costs nine cents per catty.

Wouldn't it be ruined if something went wrong?

"Mom, let me tell you, the lees of filtered rice wine are nutritious and have many uses. They can be used to make dough to make steamed buns and pancakes. They are fluffier and softer than noodles.

You can also steam it with rice milk and osmanthus to make sweet-scented osmanthus cake. If you can’t finish it, you can even raise pigs..."

Mother Hu suddenly felt so happy that she asked, "Are you going to feed the piglets with endless wine lees after you catch them?"

Shui Qing didn't hide anything and said directly: "Yes, the pigs fed with distiller's lees will become fat!"

It can also grow very fast, and it will be ready for the market next summer.

Don’t be afraid if there is a heavy rain then, don’t be afraid if there is a flood, and you don’t have to worry if you are trapped by floods. There will be enough pork protection!

As long as it's not wasted, Mother Hu thinks it's great!

After all, it was rice, and I really couldn’t bear to throw it away.

She promised: "Mom, I will learn from you."

On the first day of work, I had vegetable and egg drop soup with corn flour pancakes.

The corn flour pancakes are fluffy and soft, and are crispy when pressed against the edge of the pot. The ingredients are solid, and one pancake is larger than the palm of an adult man's hand.

Needless to say, the egg drop soup is a real egg soup!

In other people’s egg drop soup, eggs are just ingredients. It’s good to see a few pieces of egg drop here and there, but in the egg drop soup made with clear water, there can still be large chunks of eggs.

Even the carpenters and bricklayers from the city looked satisfied with their food.

The men in the village were even more shocked.

When I got home that night, I told my mother-in-law that she would bring more vegetables and fruits to clear the water tomorrow - her family had been separated not long ago, so it must be because there were not enough vegetables, so she had no choice but to add more eggs.

But there are so many people, how can eggs stand being made like this?

So the next day not only the women who helped with the work came, but there was also a steady stream of women delivering vegetables and fruits!

Shui Qing was worried about the pumpkins, winter melons, cabbages, radishes, etc. piled up in the kitchen.

Which one should I eat first?

Hu's mother was happy from the bottom of her heart. Her daughter and son-in-law were very popular in the village, and no mother was unhappy.

While she warmly greeted the women to sit and chat, she said happily: "Use winter melon to stew winter melon meat soup? Just dip it in oil and water.

Is it possible to make a vegetable rice with the diced green vegetables and shiitake mushrooms and brown rice? "

Before Shui Qing could answer, the women sitting next to her said with hearty smiles, "What's wrong with this?"

"No wonder my boss kept saying how good the food was when he got home yesterday! I want to eat everything he said. There is meat, vegetables and rice. I want to help even if I don't have to pay for it." Aunt Li said enviously.

Brown rice is also rice.

Not to mention that there is meat in the winter melon. Although it is minced meat, it is very good to have minced meat these days. If the meat is enlarged, a man of dozens of sizes can eat a whole pig!

Wang Guifen was one of the women who came to help. She was taking mushrooms out of the sack and soaking them in her hair. She joked to Hu's mother: "I'm afraid that after eating at your daughter's house for ten days and a half, I won't be able to get used to it when I go home." .”

"Don't laugh at me, it's all the food you brought, so I have to thank you.

Not only did he come to help my daughter, he also brought food, and I, the mother, also benefited from it. "

Mother Hu spoke sincerely and openly. Whether she was the woman who came to help or the woman who brought food, everyone felt happy listening to it.

The men over there were working hard, while the women over there were chatting and laughing and preparing to eat.

I have to be busy with lunch in the morning, so there is basically no free time, and dinner only needs to be made for a few people in the family, without wasting time.

So after lunch and washing the dishes, Shui Qing and Hu Mu had some free time.

Using his free time, Shui Qing began to teach Hu Mu, Yan Qiuxinghui and others to make rice wine.
