Heartless people all die

Chapter 11 Make Money

The next morning, Xie Yuanmiao got up to go to the morning market. The night before, she had made an agreement with her younger siblings that they all wanted to go, but they had to put something in the back seat of the car, so they couldn't carry people, so they had to go by themselves.He was going to buy some small crabs, squids, shells, conchs and the like to make pickles. Grandma Xie promised to teach them how to make pickles.

There was a faint dawn in the genius, Xie Yuanmiao stepped on his bicycle and went out. The things in the morning market were indeed fresh and the prices were very reasonable. Xie Yuanmiao bought a lot, the basket was full, and there was a bag in the back seat of the car, thinking about it , this time the pickles are ready, and they should be able to last until the summer vacation.

As soon as I left the vegetable market, I met an acquaintance who came to buy vegetables together. This person is a famous chef in the town, surnamed Chen, who cooks very well. He provides drinks for people, and basically buys his wine from Xie Yuanmiao's house, and he has cooperated for a long time.Xie Yuanmiao said hello: "Uncle Chen."

When Master Chen saw him, he was taken aback for a moment: "It's Ah Miao. Are you here to buy vegetables too? Wait a minute." He quickly got out of the car and put his hand in his pocket, "I went to your house last time to pick up a load of wine. , I haven’t given you the money yet. I originally wanted to send it to you someday, but today it happened, so I didn’t go there on purpose. Here, here you are, two tanks of wine are 61 catties in total, two yuan and five for one catty, a total of 150 and five A dollar. Here you go, take it."

Xie Yuanmiao did some calculations, and it was actually 150 cents, and the other party made up the change: "Thank you, Uncle Chen, I'll give you another [-] cents."

Master Chen waved his hand and said, "What are you looking for, just the money. It's a pity, I won't be able to drink your wine again."

Xie Yuanmiao hesitated for a moment, and said, "Uncle Chen, I still have a few barrels of wine at home. I made them. The taste may not be as good as my mother's. Do you want more wine?"

Master Chen was a little surprised: "You can also make wine? Then go and see."

"I learned it from my mother, but I'm afraid it doesn't taste that good." Xie Yuanmiao smiled.

Xie Yuanmiao brought the other party back home, opened the wine vats one by one, scooped some wine for the other party to taste, and the other party said after tasting: "Most of them are okay, but the taste of two tanks is a bit weak. It's not as good as your mother's wine." Not very far, okay."

Xie Yuanmiao said expectantly, "Then Uncle Chen, do you want it?"

Master Chen nodded: "Yes, your wine is cheaper, two yuan and one catty, come and pick it up when I need it."

Xie Yuanmiao breathed a sigh of relief: "Then thank you Uncle Chen."

After about a week, Master Chen received a big business order and took away Xie Yuanmiao's several cylinders of wine.Before leaving, Xie Yuanmiao said: "Uncle Chen, if I still make wine in the future, can I come to you again?"

Master Chen said: "Of course, you have my phone number, if you have it, call me."

"it is good."

Xie Yuanmiao got encouragement from Master Chen, and he went to collect the bills from the remaining customers one after another, almost all went smoothly. People with conscience and sympathy still accounted for the majority, and those who cared about taking advantage of others like the restaurant owner Lin were a minority after all. .When collecting the bill, Xie Yuanmiao found that many old customers expressed regret that they could not buy his wine.Xie Yuanmiao decided to inherit her mother's craftsmanship and make and sell wine by herself.

The most critical part of wine making is not brewing, but making distiller's koji, which is very knowledgeable, and whether the koji is well placed is directly related to the quality of rice wine.Xie Yuanmiao used to watch his mother pairing wine koji a lot, but to his great helplessness, Xie Yuanmiao didn't know the formula of jiu koji, nor did he know the quota of rice and jiu koji.He knew that he had to go to Grandpa's house.

Speaking of wine making, there are still many grievances and grievances.The Huang family has brewed wine for generations, and they have kept the secret recipe of making wine koji handed down from their ancestors. The wine they brew has a unique taste and is well-known in their area.

Xie Yuanmiao has a business-minded uncle who once registered their family wine as a trademark and turned the family workshop into a small winery. Although the scale is not large, it is enough to stand out from the countryside.But Xie Yuanmiao's mother didn't have a good relationship with her natal family. Huang Meiyun was a very diligent girl when she was young. At that time, their family didn't have a winery, that is, a wine making workshop. The method of making distiller's yeast was secretly learned, and this secret recipe was passed on from man to woman.

Later, Huang Meiyun married Xie Yingzong, and Xie's family was so poor that Huang Meiyun secretly made distiller's yeast and sold them.The Huang family actually sells koji, but the koji they sell is different from the koji made by themselves. People buy koji to make wine, and the result is definitely different from theirs. The taste is not as good as the wine made by the Huang family. However, the Huang family excused that the taste was different due to the different brewing methods.

Huang Meiyun didn't think so thoroughly. People tried the koji she sold, and the effect was almost the same as the wine brewed by the Huang family.So for a while, everyone accused the Huang's family of selling bad koji, which was not as good as their own. No wonder the taste of the brewed wine was different.

The reason why the Huang family provoked public outrage was because of Huang Meiyun. She was severely reprimanded and complained by her father and brother, and Huang Meiyun did not dare to sell distiller's yeast anymore.But as the children were born one by one, the embarrassment of the family became more and more obvious. At that time, Xie Yingzong did not go out to make a living. Huang Meiyun thought about making wine again. This time, she made wine from her natal family and sold it herself. .

Although the Huang family knew that Huang Meiyun was robbing themselves of the market by doing this, the family couldn't do things too extreme, so they didn't care about it.Within two years, Huang Meiyun's eldest brother registered their family's self-brewed wine as a brand. The Huang family used this reason to stop providing Huang Meiyun with distiller's yeast.During those two years, Huang Meiyun earned her first pot of gold by brewing wine and raising pigs at home. Xie Yingzong took the money to open a shop in Guangzhou to do business, but he hadn’t gained a foothold yet. The family was supported by Huang Meiyun alone, and the pressure on both sides was very high. Big, of course the wine sales can't stop.

Huang Meiyun gritted her teeth and started making distiller's koji again. This time, of course, she stopped selling jiuji and made distiller's koji to brew her own wine.However, her natal family felt that such a daughter was too extroverted. The family had just opened a factory, and the cost of things had increased. Naturally, the price of wine had to be raised, but Huang Meiyun's bulk wine price remained unchanged. Huang's family was used to it. People who buy rice wine, if they have cheap wine to buy, of course they are willing to buy Huang Meiyun's. Isn't this against her natal family again, so Huang Meiyun is very unpopular with her father and brother.

Later, it was Huang Meiyun, the very capable elder brother, who was cheated because he guaranteed a loan for a friend, and the winery also lost it.Although this matter has nothing to do with Huang Meiyun, the Huang family has indeed fallen.As for Xie's family, it seemed that getting better was better. Although Huang Meiyun tried hard to repair the relationship with her natal family, the effect was not very good.It was probably because the Huang family felt that they had fallen, and Huang Meiyun came back to fix it at this time, which was a bit of a show off.

There are very few contacts between mother and grandpa and uncle, and Xie Yuanmiao knows all kinds of reasons for this.Whether it is a family member or a friend, as long as a conflict is planted, it is like a nail driven into the tree. Although the nail is pulled out and repaired hard, the scar will always exist.

Xie Yuanmiao has calculated the cost. A catty of rice can produce a catty of 300% shochu. The price of a catty of rice is one yuan and ten cents, and the price of a catty of wine is two yuan and fifty cents. A piece of about four cents.The wine can be fermented for about half a month to make wine. By cooking two hundred catties of rice at a time, you can earn nearly 5000 yuan, brewing it three times in two months, and even more during winter and summer vacations. You can earn at least 500 yuan a year.The dregs left after fermenting glutinous rice can be used to feed pigs. Two pigs can be raised and put out of the pen every six months. Four pigs can be raised a year. Each head earns 2000 yuan, which means 7000 yuan, and [-] yuan a year. Although his income is not much, it should be enough for him and his younger siblings to cover their tuition and living expenses for a year.

After making up his mind, Xie Yuanmiao took his younger siblings to grandpa's house.Although the grandparents were a bit prejudiced against their daughters, they were their own daughters after all, and they died in vain at a young age, which made it very uncomfortable for the old man who was sending a white-haired man to a black-haired one.Although everyone privately said that Huang Meiyun had eyes but no eyes, and she ran into a white-eyed wolf after all her heart and soul, but they still sympathized with the Xie Yuanmiao brothers and sisters.

Xie Yuanmiao arrived at Grandpa's house, and after exchanging pleasantries, he said straight to the point that he wanted to make wine.Uncle Huang Zhanrong stared at the copper bell with big eyes: "Are you kidding me? You don't read your book, so why make wine?"

Xie Yuanmiao lowered his eyes: "If I don't make wine, I can't afford to read. I want to make money."

Huang Zhanrong said, "Xie Yingzong doesn't care about you?"

Xie Yuanmiao glanced at the uncle: "The uncle also saw the situation of my younger brothers and sisters last time, do you think he will still take care of us?" Last time, in order to find Hui Xian and Yuan Yan, almost all the relatives in the family were alarmed. Naturally, there is also uncle here.

"Then your elder brother Yuansen can't leave you alone." The uncle said from the side.

Xie Yuanmiao said: "I can't pin all my hopes on others." Although Xie Yuansen said that he would send the money back, how long would it last.

Grandpa was smoking a dry cigarette: "You want wine koji? Didn't your mother teach you how to match it?"

Xie Yuanmiao shook his head: "No."

Grandpa and uncle looked at each other and said, "Okay, when you make wine in the future, come here to get the koji, as much as you want." Huang Meiyun still kept her promise and did not spread the recipe.

"Thank you, grandpa!" Xie Yuanmiao quickly thanked him. As for the ratio of rice and koji, he doesn't have to worry about it. He just needs to say how much rice he wants to cook, and grandpa will give him the corresponding koji, so he will know it naturally.He also asked his grandma some secrets of wine making in private. After all, grandma still loves his grandson, and he told it carefully. Xie Yuanmiao wrote it down carefully and was going to go back to test it himself. He thought that he should cook less first and try Effect, if successful, increase the quantity again, so as not to cause big losses due to failure.

After brewing the first batch of wine, Xie Yuanmiao went to visit the customers on the ledger again, mainly to promote his own wine, telling them that his family still produces wine, and if they need it, they can still buy it.
