Otherworldly Days

Chapter 315 Mature season chapter

On a June day, the big sun in the sky turned red all the fruits on the mountain.A patch of sour fruit at the foot of the mountain was ripe, and probably no one would have imagined that delicious wine could be brewed from sour fruit on rotten branches that no one wanted.

A whole piece of sour fruit was picked and transported away, and after a series of procedures, it became a delicious wine.

After a busy period of time, all the grapes in that piece were picked, and the most basic process was completed. The wines that were brewed one after another were put into small jars for secondary fermentation before they could be brewed into real dry wine.

Cao Xiangnan scooped up some wine with the wine ladle, took a sip, and was satisfied with the taste. He handed the wine ladle to Cao Gang, beckoning him to have a taste too, and said, "Taste it and see how it tastes."

Last year he made a small fortune from the wine, but this year, with Fang Ziye here, it is not a small fortune. Cao Xiangnan has absolute confidence in Fang Ziye.What's more, in addition to his side making wine this year, the winery in Nanyang is also making wine, and the amount will definitely be more than last year.

When he sees these wines now, it is like seeing shiny gold, but these will be silver by then.

When the production of wine is high, Cao Xiangnan is not worried that no one will want it, even if he has no choice, the shopkeeper Fang also has a lot of ways to sell all the wine, just with all the Yipinzhai under Fang Ziye, this amount is not a small amount. Number of.

"Let it go for a while." Cao Gang took a small sip, then put it down, nodded and said.

"Well, yes, it needs to be left for a while, and the taste will be better." Cao Xiangnan nodded. The taste of the freshly brewed wine is still weak, and the wine needs to be left for a while. The more it is brewed, the more mellow the taste will be. better.

After several people inspected the wine, they went out from the cellar.

"...Then let's make a decision first. I'll discuss it with Master Feng later." On the way out, Cao Xiangnan and Cao Gang discussed the wine side, and a winery was built in Nanyang. It is planned to build a winery here in Fenshui.

Small family workshops can never keep up with big workshops. It is better to expand production. Even if the wine is not shipped to Nanyang by then, even in this Fenshui wharf, there will be a lot of goods coming and going, which is enough. up.

This idea has long been in Cao Xiangnan's mind, but in the absence of manpower and material resources, many things have to be done slowly and step by step, and there is no rush.

"Okay." Cao Gang didn't have any objection to Cao Xiangnan's decision.

Gan Weiqi, who was following him, no longer had any surprises on his face. Cao Xiangnan's affairs had just started when he came, and now he saw Cao Xiangnan walking step by step. Of course, he also participated in it.

When Gan Weilin heard that a winery was going to be built, he licked his tongue and winked at his elder brother, wouldn't he have wine to eat?

"..." Gan Weiqi.

The children in the family have all gone to the academy, and now Sun Bailian will come to Wanfeng to help him take care of the children during the day, saying that she is here to help, but in fact she just sits there and keeps talking, eating non-stop.

This careless brother didn't even know he was pregnant. He only found out that he was pregnant not long ago, and the child has been more than two months old.On weekdays, Sun Bailian danced around all day long, but now her husband has also grounded her, and she can't go anywhere.

The sun is strong and hot this season. The two children in the family are both young. The little Baoer is not in good health. Qi Wanfeng didn't dare to run around with the two little ones, so he stayed at home. Sun Bailian Just right here.

"Wanfeng, I'll go out for a while. You and the children stay at home. The sun is shining outside, so don't go out." When Cao Xiangnan and the others entered, they saw two adults and children chatting in the living room. He left In the past, she put her hand on Wanfeng's shoulder and said to him.

There were a lot of snacks on the table, and Sun Bailian was sitting there having a meal, when she saw her husband come in, she grinned, Cao Gang also walked towards the person who was smiling at him, this man's face was rare smiled.

There is tenderness in the eyes they look at each other.

Gan Weiqi, who came in behind, had no expression on his face. Gan Weilin grabbed Xiao Lele who was holding snacks in his two paws and was eating. He opened his mouth and asked Xiao Lele what he wanted to eat, but Xiao Lele stuffed his mouth.

After being stuffed into his mouth, Mou Le had eaten biscuits that made him drool and waited for Mou Qi.

"..." Gan Weiqi.

I really don't know what to say.

Cao Ruile, who successfully played a prank, Xiaopang has an innocent smile on his face, if you didn't ask me for it, I will give it to you generously!

Little Cao Ruile is teething now, and he is not annoying, he likes to hold small biscuits and gnaw all over his mouth.

"Puchi one by one" Qi Wanfeng couldn't help laughing when he saw the good things his kid did, and said to Gan Weiqi, "Hurry up and spit out the food in your mouth, Lele you kid." The little Bao'er was handed to Fu Lang, and he reached out to fetch his fat boy back, and took the little towel to wipe the child's mouth and face clean.

Only then did the kid Cao Ruile turn back into a clean little bun, grinning so much that even the gums were visible.

Gan Weiqi spat out what was in his mouth, and looked at the boy who was beating him suspiciously, really unwilling to believe that he was being raped by a boy who was more than half a year old.

"Well, I see, Fulang, if you have to do something, then go, I'm at home." Usually, Qi Wanfeng will take the children outside in the morning and evening, knowing that Fulang is very busy, and he doesn't have any family affairs. Let Fu Lang worry too much, try to get things done at home as much as possible, and take care of the children well.

After talking to the family, the carriage went out.

Since the beginning of spring this year, Cao Xiangnan felt that he had never stopped and was always busy. He calculated in his heart that this busy work would at least last until the end of the year, when the next winter came. .

But no matter how busy the days are now, it is worth it. The life of the family is better, and the wife and children can live a good life. This is his greatest wish.

"Master Feng, the boss is looking for it." The man outside shouted inside when the boss said he was looking for Master Feng.

Cao Xiangnan came to the academy to find Feng Guang. The houses and yards on the academy side are still under construction. The land is so big. He bought all of this large piece of wasteland at the beginning. won't run.

The scenery inside heard the voice, stretched out his head, saw that it was Xiao Dong's family looking for him, ordered the other people to take over what he was doing, and went out.

"Why are you so free today?" Feng Guang asked when he came out to meet someone.

Cao Xiangnan gestured, and the two sat down in a shady place under a tree, with two large bowls of herbal tea on the table.He told Feng Guang about the workshop to be built, and now Feng Guang had a headache when Cao Xiangnan said that he wanted to build a place, "Where can I find someone to build it for you now!"

Not to mention manpower, he has to work in so many places by himself now, and he doesn't even have a chance to sit on a stool all day. He spared manpower to build a workshop for him!

"Hey..." Cao Xiangnan smiled treacherously, and said to Feng Guang, "If there is no one here, just look for it, right? With your master Feng's ability, I'm afraid you won't find anyone."

"Where can I find it!" Feng Guang spat blood all the way, he was about to buy someone from a human trafficker, just to build a house for that bastard Cao Xiangnan!

Now Cao Xiangnan's wages to Feng Guang are not calculated on a monthly basis, but directly calculated on an annual basis. When Feng Guang came back every year, he negotiated with him the salary of Feng Guang, the chief foreman, and paid him directly. Half a year's wages.

After half a year's work, Feng Guang, who thought he was lucky enough to receive such a high salary, gritted his teeth when he saw the kid smiling at him, and felt that his salary territory was less, and next year would be very difficult. It is necessary to raise this price further. No matter whether Master Feng has the manpower or not, Cao Xiangnan has taken care of the brewery. The time he gave Feng Guang is to build it before winter comes at the latest. As for what to do? Guy, how to arrange the manpower is not his business.

It was not the first time for the two of them to work together. Even Cao Xiangnan didn't have to draw the pattern of the workshop for Feng Guang. After briefly mentioning this structure to Feng Guang, Feng Guang could understand what he meant.

"Master Feng, I will trouble you when you get old." When he left, Cao Xiangnan was all smiles. After all, he had achieved his goal. As long as he paid, he would have a winery.

In the past, he had to contact the building materials himself, but now a special person is in charge of this part. Then he only needs to reconcile the accounts and if there is no problem with the accounts, it will be fine. Therefore, even if these houses are being built, it will not affect him running around at all.

Therefore, it is easy to do things with money, but it is difficult to move without money.

Just in time for the fruit ripening season, the front part of the processing workshop was built and put into use.The ripened fruits on the mountain are all transported to the processing workshop, and the processed fruits will be made into candied fruit.

There are not enough laborers in the village, so a group of people from neighboring villages were recruited to work.

The buddies who go to the workshop to work every day have to put on clean clothes and hats to go into the workshop to work. Everyone talked and laughed in the workshop, and the work on hand did not stop.

At the beginning, the big guys were not used to dressing like this to work, but even if they were not used to it, everyone had to strictly implement this rule according to the requirements of the workshop.Otherwise, if you are caught once, you will be recorded by the steward of the workshop, and your wages will be deducted once. If you are caught many times, you will be fired by the workshop, but no one has been fired by the workshop so far.

Baskets of fruits are washed and processed, and then they are made into candied fruit. The people in each workshop are responsible for one process, which does not overlap. Cao Xiangnan strictly controls the last process in his own hands to prevent it from being stolen. up.

The fruit at this time is ripe, and after this season, it will wait for next year.

When the fruits all over the mountains and plains are ripe, these wild fruits are the least valuable, and no one wants them at all. When there are no fresh fruits to eat in winter, these preserved fruits can be sold for a good price.

After leaving Feng Guang, Cao Xiangnan came over to the processing workshop and checked the situation here.
