Chongxi husband and wife who are sick

Chapter 75 Green Plum Wine

"Okay, it's not troublesome." It turned out that the village chief was looking for him for this matter, and Si Yun agreed after thinking about it, "Uncle, then I'll change a piece of clothing first, and you wait."

"Okay, then I'll wait for you, don't worry, take your time." The village head said with a smile.

Si Yun quickly changed his clothes, he went to the construction site first, and told Feng Heng that he would go to the city, and he would take care of lunch by himself.Feng Heng was talking with Hong Gong, the villa was almost built, they just brought people to repair the dry toilet behind the villa, put wooden boards, build walls and so on.

"Ayun, let me go with you, things here are almost over." Feng Heng took off his gloves and said.

Si Yun shook his head, "No need, just look at home, I'll be back soon."

Then he went to their house with the village chief. Wang Linwen was ready and came out with a white wine bottle with green bamboo leaves on it. The wine bottle was bought in the county before. A lot of manpower and material resources were spent, and in order to make the price of the wine higher, they also paid attention to the packaging of the wine.

Pretty smart, but still lacking a little bit.In terms of packaging, who can compare to those gift companies of later generations, "Lin Wen, give me this wine, and I will prepare it and make it look better."

Wang Linwen was stunned for a moment, then he understood what he meant, and quickly gave Si Yun the wine in his hand. They could think of using beautiful bottles to store fruit wine, and Si Yun must have thought of other ways to store wine.

In this way, the three of them returned to Si Yun's house, and the village head and Wang Linwen waited outside, expressing emotion while waiting.

"Si Yun must have a better-looking wine bottle."

"Father thinks so too. He has a lot of ideas in his mind, so he must have other ideas."

"Father, if we had decorated the jam beautifully last time, maybe we could have sold more money." Wang Linwen sighed.

In the past two months, Wang's family sent jams to Shopkeeper Feng's store ten times, about [-] catties each time, five times a month, about once every six days. After experimenting, they found that the taste of the jam was the best after being kept for six days and then opened. Okay, and six days is enough for them to make a new round of jam, and the time will be well controlled.

Mulberry sauce is seventy yuan a catty, and two catties is worth [-] yuan. Six times a month, there are [-] yuan. The mulberry is completely picked from the mountains, and there is no cost, while the other three need to buy vegetables and meat. After removing the cost, the money earned in a month is not much different. The key is that they can make money now, which is much better than when they had no money. So they are not greedy.

And the price of the mulberries they sold was doubled after being packaged by shopkeeper Feng. He divided the [-]-cent jam into five-two jars, and each jar cost [-]-cent, directly earning double the money.It is said that he also sold the jam to Fucheng, and the price directly doubled by three or four times.

But after the village head and Wang Linwen were surprised, they pretended not to know.They can understand that shopkeeper Feng bought things so expensive. After all, they have to pay labor costs and shipping costs, as well as handling fees with local officials and merchants, and those are much more.

They'd better honestly make their own jam.

"Father, the mulberries are going to be gone, and the nearby villages have also finished picking them. What jam should we make next?" Wang Linwen suddenly thought of this.

In order to make mulberry sauce, they picked all the mulberries from the surrounding villages, and they also found someone to collect a lot of them. The mulberries in the mountains are basically gone. This is the premise that they use one catty of mulberries to make two catties of mulberry sauce. One hundred catties of mulberry is already the limit, and they all went to the depths of the mountain.

The village head thought for a while and said, "The carambola will be ripe in a few days. There are many carambola trees in the mountains, and a few carambola can weigh a catty, which should be enough for us."

It’s good to have it in the mountains. There are many mountain products, and there are also wild fruits. As long as you are not afraid of hardships, you can pick them back, and the fruits ripen every season.It's just that they may not have so many fruits to use, because the village makes fruit wine.

"Father, how many public lands in the village have not been sold?" Wang Linwen asked.

The village chief thought for a while and said, "There are still a few acres of planted land, a few acres of homesteads, and more than ten acres of wasteland." The wasteland is like the land next to the foot of the mountain, and no one wants to develop it. "Why do you ask this?"

Wang Linwen said: "If the jam and fruit wine sell well, we can plant many fruit trees in the village. When they bloom and bear fruit, they are both beautiful and can be used to make money. We can also plant some in the villagers' yards. "

When the village chief heard it, he immediately laughed when he understood, isn't it? If the fruit wine sells well, the villagers will definitely plant fruit trees for the next year's business. The wasteland in the village just didn't expect to be useful, and it would be perfect for planting fruit trees , I heard that there are villages in the distance that specialize in planting flowers and trees. When the flowers bloom, people will go to them to play and make a lot of money.

Maybe their village can do the same.

As for their jam, it is time to plant trees, not to mention how many, as long as it can reduce the cost of buying fruits. There are flowers and trees in the house, and they look better than before.

The two were talking when Si Yun came out.

What Si Yun held in his hand was not wine, but a square wooden box as long as an adult's forearm. The box had delicate and complicated patterns on it. The dark brown wooden box looked very thick and imposing.

"Ayun, what is this?" Wang Linwen asked first.

Si Yun picked up the packing box in his hand, grinned and said, "Wine."

It turned out that it was not a wine bottle, but a wine box.

Shopkeeper Feng is the owner of Jixiang Restaurant. He has two stores under his hands, one is a restaurant and the other is a cloth shop. Both are profitable businesses. In Qingshan County, his business is not too much, and it is not a business that brings in quick money. , can only be regarded as a small shopkeeper.

However, Shopkeeper Feng's life is quite contented, he likes to eat, as long as the money he earns is enough for him to eat, he doesn't care much about the other things, money is something outside of the body, he doesn't bring it with him when he dies, as long as it is enough.

He always thought this way, until someone brought him jam, and the jam business opened up, and he realized that he actually prefers to make money rather than eat, how good it is to make money, the white money is pleasing to the eye, and The more he earns, the more he can eat.

In just two months, shopkeeper Feng has gained another size.

Speaking of jam, it was really a windfall for him. The person who gave him the jam was a villager in a small village. He and the former villager just knew each other, so they didn’t know each other very well. He liked to go to the same pharmacy to get medicine. I always go to that house when I have food or accumulated food, and I get to know the little apprentices there.

The little apprentice is quite capable. There was a jam maker in the village, so he entrusted him to make the jam, and then brought the jam to him. The jam tasted good and the color was beautiful. Some people want to buy it, but they can't.

Shopkeeper Feng is a shopkeeper after all. Knowing the truth that the rarer the more expensive, he didn't sell all the jams in Qingshan County, but got them to Fucheng. He has been to Fucheng, and there is no such thing as jam in Fucheng. He made the jam more expensive, and then...sold it all too.

There are many rich families in Fucheng, and it is said that an egg worth only a few pennies can sell for tens of pennies. Fucheng is prosperous, but the prices are also high. high.

"Shopkeeper, Village Chief Wang and Wang Linwen are here."

At this time, shopkeeper Feng was looking at the account book while working on the abacus, while eating the snacks made of jam, let alone, it was more delicious when paired with it.

"Why are they here today? Didn't they just bring jam over the day before yesterday?" Shopkeeper Feng was surprised, but he immediately got up from the stool and followed the butler out the door. It's a good time, whether he came a few days ago or not, anyway, as long as they Come, there must be goods, and he can make money if there are goods. Before reaching the front hall, shopkeeper Feng said with a smile: "Oh, brother Wang, rare customer, is the jam ready again? Old Yun, let's watch tea."

After finishing speaking, shopkeeper Feng walked into the living room, and then he found that not only Village Chief Wang and Wang Linwen came, but also a fair-skinned half-year-old boy.

"Is he...?" Shopkeeper Feng couldn't figure out who he was.

Wang Linwen immediately introduced, "Shopkeeper Feng, this is Si Yun, and he told us to make the jam. Ayun, this is Shopkeeper Feng, the one who bought our jam."

Si Yun nodded, looked at shopkeeper Feng, and understood, it was exactly as Wang Linwen and the others said, he liked to eat, "Hi shopkeeper Feng, I'm Si Yun."

Secretary... cloud?Si Yun? !

Shopkeeper Feng felt that the name was a bit familiar, and then suddenly remembered, isn't this the name of the shopkeeper of Sifeng Hot Pot, which was so popular a while ago!

"Are you the little shopkeeper of Sifeng Hot Pot?" Shopkeeper Feng was full of surprise.

Si Yun was also startled, and asked with a smile, "Shopkeeper Feng, do you know me?"

Shopkeeper Feng nodded in amazement, hehe laughed, not only did he know him, the shopkeepers of restaurants in Qingshan County had heard of his name, and Shopkeeper Feng had even eaten at Sifeng Hot Pot many times, but at that time Si Yun and Feng Heng Back in the village, I was busy building a house, so I never saw it.

Not only that, two months ago, Qingshan County suddenly launched a lot of light but delicious clear soup hot pot, which is not as spicy as Sifeng hot pot, but the taste is also good. The restaurant brings out various sauces for customers to dip in. There is a flavor.

Some well-connected shopkeepers even bought a lot of seafood from Fucheng near the sea. The taste of the soup, tsk, was so fresh that people almost swallowed their tongues.Other shopkeepers did not buy seafood, but also added other things to the soup, such as sand ginseng, mushrooms, etc., and the thick soup was more delicious than the vegetables in it!

And that idea was said to have been proposed by Si Yun.

Why did this kind of person come to him? Shopkeeper Feng was curious, "I don't know why shopkeeper Si Xiao came to my place?" Could it be that he was looking for business?

"I didn't come here today for something. Our village brewed a new kind of wine. I want you to try it. If you think it's okay, then our village will also do business with you. I heard that the jam of the village chief's house is made by you. It's sold here, so...the new wine has come out, and I want you to hold my hand." Si Yun said with a smile, and then took a step back, giving the village chief and Wang Linwen the home court.

Si Yun knew the approximate price of fruit wine in this era.The price of fruit wine in modern times is not expensive. A bottle of ordinary seven or eight yuan, a bottle of high-quality ten yuan or twenty yuan, naturally there are more expensive ones, but in fact there is not much difference in taste, at least ordinary people taste it. not come out.

In fact... the most expensive fruit wine is probably wine. Those in cellars cost tens of thousands, or 10,000+, but other fruit wines are not so expensive.

Ordinary fruit wine has a price, but ordinary fruit wine is not very expensive, but there is no fruit wine in this era, nor their brewing methods. Since it is the first in this world, the price should not be too low.

liquor?New wine?What wine?Si Yun's topic changed so quickly that shopkeeper Feng didn't realize it, and then he realized that the village head and the others had made new wine. When thinking of wine, his first thought was rice wine, but the village head and the others could make jam, so they came to him specifically , he rejected the idea.

Did they make new wine out?

People who love to eat generally don't skip wine. The more Shopkeeper Feng thought about it, the more he felt that it was the case, and the greedy worms in his stomach were hooked out, and he didn't care about Si Yun. Anyway, he doesn't rely on hot pot to make money. Don't miss him like other shopkeepers.

The village chief and Wang Linwen took a step forward and took out the box they were holding in their arms. The box was too long and too wide for them to hold, so they hugged it, which was also safe.

This fruit wine is a precious thing, and there is no room for any mistakes.

Shopkeeper Feng saw at a glance that it was a box for wine. He first admired the fine workmanship of the box, and then focused his attention on the contents inside. Wang Linwen also put the box on the table.

The box is like the vanity box of the ladies and wives of Shenyuan. It has an openable lid, and there is a small buckle on the lid and fit. Open the buckle to open the box.Wang Linwen flipped the button, and the lid of the box rang. Hearing the sound, he slowly opened the lid. As the lid opened, the scene inside appeared in the eyes of the three of them.

There is a beautiful white porcelain bottle in the box. There is a wooden stopper on the top of the porcelain bottle. At the neck of the wine bottle, there is also a red ribbon that is exactly the same as the outside, making it even more beautiful.

Shopkeeper Feng praised it on the spot, "Beautiful!"

Wang Linwen couldn't help being startled by the sight, he bought the wine bottle, it looked beautiful, but he knew how much it was worth, but he didn't dare to recognize the wine bottle in front of him, it was so beautiful that he almost Can't believe that's his bottle.

If the wine bottle he was holding before was a roadside stall on the street, now the wine bottle is a beautifully decorated and luxurious restaurant. Obviously the wine inside is still the same wine, but because of the different appearance, it gives people the same feeling. completely different.

"It's a pretty look, and the wine in it must be delicious too." Shopkeeper Feng asked impatiently.

Wang Linwen calmed down, and carefully took out the wine bottle inside. After taking out the wine bottle, he discovered something even more subtle. There was a piece of wood in the box besides the wine bottle, and there was a depression on the wooden board. The bottle fits well. It can be said that with this kind of box for wine, there is absolutely no need to worry about the bottle rolling around in the box and eventually crashing.

Both beautiful and safe, really seconds!

Wang Linwen just thought in his heart, but shopkeeper Feng said it out, and then he looked forward to the wine in the bottle even more.

The wine in such a good box must not taste bad.Before Wang Linwen could open his mouth, he entered the room himself, took out several wine glasses, and hurriedly asked Wang Linwen to pour the wine.

Wang Linwen didn't think about it any more, so he unscrewed the cork and tilted it slightly, and a stream of emerald green liquid was slowly poured into the glass. On the wall of the wine glass, like water drops, it fell into the wine below with a ding dong, leaving only a light green streak on the inner wall of the white wine glass.

That green is like the new shoots that just came out in spring.

Shopkeeper Feng was shocked by the color of the wine, not surprised, but amazed. After living for so long, he had never seen such a beautiful wine with this color.Not only that, but as the wine poured down, he seemed to smell a fruity aroma.

"What kind of wine is this?" Swallowing, shopkeeper Feng asked quickly.

Wang Wenlin was also amazed. No matter how many times he watched it, he still felt that the fruit wine was so beautiful that it made people panic. Shopkeeper Feng is a shopkeeper who has never seen fruit wine before, let alone him who was born as a farmer.

"Shopkeeper Feng, this is called green plum wine. It is made from green plums. It is a kind of fruit wine."

"Fruit wine?" Shopkeeper Feng knew it well. No wonder he smelled a fruity scent. After sniffing it carefully, it smelled like green plums. Fruits can also be used to make wine?How about the taste?

I heard that some people in the distance use grapes to make wine, but the taste of the wine is very bad, bitter, and it is very expensive. What is the difference between this green plum wine and wine?

Shopkeeper Feng stopped talking, and his mood calmed down a little, not so excited.Picking up the wine glass and looking at the wine again, with the mentality of testing poison, he closed his eyes and took a careful sip.

Wang Linwen and the village head watched nervously, what's going on, will shopkeeper Feng think it's delicious?They had tasted it before and found it delicious, but they were not sure what Shopkeeper Feng thought.

The two were about to ask, but they saw that shopkeeper Feng's eyes were fixed, and there was a deep sense of surprise in his eyes, and he didn't care to talk to the two of them. This time he opened his mouth wide and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp. shouted loudly, "It's delicious!"

The green plum wine that Wang Linwen and the others sent was completely different from the wines he had drunk before. It only had a strong fruity aroma, as well as the taste of wine, as well as the sour and sweet taste of green plums, a perfect blend of several flavors. Together, drink into the mouth, and then enter the stomach along the throat, it is simply a delicious feast for the taste.

Shopkeeper Feng felt a little pity after drinking it. I knew I shouldn't drink it so fast. I should hold it in my mouth for a while before drinking it. I should drink it slowly and enjoy it slowly!

"Village Chief Wang, brother Wang Linwen, how are you going to sell this wine?" Thinking of something, shopkeeper Feng immediately lost his heartache. Since Village Chief Wang and Wang Linwen wanted to sell wine, there must be more.

With a correct attitude, he immediately took the attitude of discussing business.

When the village chief and Wang Linwen heard this, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.Even when they said what they had thought up, it was so different from the last time. They asked Shopkeeper Feng to set the price. If the price was right and fair, then they would do this business. If it was not suitable, then they would not do this business, saying When they said that, they looked at Si Yun faintly.

Shopkeeper Feng heard this, and then glanced at Si Yun who was acting as a pillar next to him. He wanted to take advantage of it, but he immediately dismissed the idea.This fruit wine tastes good. If you can buy it at a low price and sell it at a high price, you can definitely make a lot of money, but it is not worth losing the big business source of the village head and Wang Linwen for that little profit.

Intuitively, he felt that Village Chief Wang and Wang Linwen might come up with other good things later.

In this case...with a plan in mind, Shopkeeper Feng said with a smile: "The ordinary yellow rice wine on the market now costs two taels of silver a catty. Your fruit wine tastes better than yellow rice wine, and it's clearer and stronger. , It’s still the first portion, so I’ll give you four taels of silver per catty, the rules are still the same as the previous jams, sell it to our restaurant first, and then provide it to others.”

The price... is a bit low. The village chief and Wang Linwen looked at Si Yun, who was on the side, without saying a word. Si Yun raised his eyebrows, walked over, and said, "Shopkeeper Feng, in my opinion, the price seems a bit low. .”

Shopkeeper Feng's heart trembled, he laughed, and finally understood Si Yun's usefulness.

"As far as I know, the rice wine currently on the market is indeed two taels of silver a catty, but I learned that there is a family in the southwest that has been making wine for generations. The rice wine in the family is delicious and top-grade, and it can be sold for six taels of silver. One catty, before this, I tasted their wine, the taste of the wine is not as good as ours, and it is not as clear and beautiful as ours, four taels of silver, it is really a little lower."

Shopkeeper Feng was taken aback, he didn't expect that Si Yun had actually bought the wine from that store, he drank the wine from that store, and the taste was indeed worse than the green plum wine they brought out.

"Then this..." Shopkeeper Feng lacked confidence.

Si Yun smiled and said: "Well, let's take a step back and pay five taels of silver. What do you think? In the future, there will be other fruit wines in our village, including apricot wine in the village, and even rice wine made from rice. The rice wine is clear and translucent, and the taste of the wine can be stronger than other rice wines. If it is feasible, we will also give priority to Jixiang Restaurant."

More boozy?

Shopkeeper Feng was startled. He felt that fruit wine and rice wine were already full of flavor, and could there be more flavor?

Of course there is, Si Yun understood what he meant when he saw the appearance of shopkeeper Feng. Because the ancient cooking utensils are not very good, the ancient rice wine is generally not very high in alcohol, and it is not as clear as modern wine. Anyone in modern times can drink Some people in ancient times can become Dionysus without any effort.

The wine recipe he gave is modern, as long as they make tools for steaming wine, it’s no problem to brew wine with a high alcohol content, and even make alcohol, which burns people’s heart sorely, maybe the taste is not very good, But the degree is definitely enough.

Of course, what they can do now is fruit wine. They didn't make any money at the beginning, so there is nothing to invest in it.

But this doesn't prevent Si Yun from drawing big cakes.

Shopkeeper Feng: "..."

All right, all right, he will sign.

In Fengjia Village, Aunt Zhou's house welcomed a guest.

"Aunt Zhou, do you really want to marry your son a wife?" Matchmaker Zhao with a mole on the corner of her mouth asked sharply while holding a big red fan.

Zhou Xiaozhuang was cooking stewed pork in the kitchen, and Aunt Zhou received Matchmaker Zhao in the main room. She poured Matchmaker Zhao a cup of tea. The tea was picked by their family from the mountains before and dried by themselves. It was not expensive, but it tasted good.

"Yes." After rubbing her palms together, Aunt Zhou smiled apologetically, "I want to marry Xiao Zhuang a daughter-in-law so that I can take care of him."

Matchmaker Zhao frowned, "Aunt Zhou, but you know about your son's situation, how can he marry a wife like this?"

Aunt Zhou heard the words, endured the soreness in her heart, and said quickly: "We don't care how good we marry, just any daughter-in-law, isn't that all right? Now our family is making money and we can afford them."

Matchmaker Zhao heard about the Zhou family and the Chen family selling stewed pork together. The stewed pork is very delicious, and everyone who has eaten it says it is delicious. Not only people in the county buy it, but people in the village also go to the market to buy it. Can make money.

Licking her lips, Matchmaker Zhao stood up and smiled, "Okay, I'll go and find out for you."
