MTL - A Blessed Daughter-Chapter 239 brewery progress

  Chapter 239 Brewery progress

   After finishing speaking, Wei Ruo ignored Yun Shi and left as soon as he said it.

  Mr. Yun had a lot to say to his eldest daughter, but all of them were blocked in his throat.

   Yunshi was a little annoyed, but he didn't know how to express his anger.

  For the eldest daughter, she now loves and hates it. To the outside world, the eldest daughter is smart and capable, and is praised by others, but only the family knows how much the eldest daughter does not regard her mother in the eyes.

   She had no good way to deal with her when she was born unlucky, not only because of years of guilt, but also because the eldest daughter's wings are hardened, and there is always a way to threaten her and the Wei family.

  Mr. Yun was angry, but thinking about the praise of the eldest daughter from the outside world, and thinking about the contributions the eldest daughter had made to the family, her anger disappeared again.

  Hey, after all, I missed those thirteen years. If I had been raised under my knees since I was a child, I wouldn't be what I am today.

  As soon as Wei Qingwan returned to the mansion, she heard about the school captain's mansion visited by Mrs. Tongzhi.

  Wei Qingwan's complexion couldn't help but sink. Even though she already knew that Wei Ruo was attracted by Mrs. Tongzhi, her heart still couldn't help sinking when she heard that things were going well again.

  In Taizhou Mansion, apart from the Yuan family, the Xu family has the highest background and status, and Xu Fengyuan is the eldest son and grandson of the Xu family. If this marriage is successful, it will definitely be their Wei family.

  From this point of view, Wei Qingruo's future is bright. On the other hand, her future is bleak and uncertain.

  She is in a very worrying situation now. If Wei Qing doesn't talk about everything, there are people who are against her everywhere. Xu Yaojun failed to harm her last time, and I don't know what ideas will come out later.

  She didn't know what she did wrong, why she always had to bear these things, obviously she didn't take the initiative to provoke them, they just wanted to push her into an embarrassing situation.

  Wei Qingwan sat in front of the dressing table in a daze. After a while, she took out a jade pendant the size of a copper coin from the dressing box.

   This is what fell from the young master who rescued her in the peach forest that day, because someone came into the forest to find her, and the young master left in a hurry in order not to be seen by others. She found that it was too late to return the dropped jade pendant to the young master, so she had to put it away first to avoid being seen by others.

   Judging from the texture of the jade pendant, the son of that day had a good background and was able to help, which shows that he was of good character.

   I don’t know if she and him will have a chance to meet again...

  Drunk Xianju.

  Fan Chengxu flipped through the account books of the last month, and a smile could not help but appear on the corner of his mouth.

  Since cooperating with Xu Heyou, Zuixianju's business has become better than before, and its monthly profit has increased by almost 10%.

Don't underestimate this 10%. Originally, Zuixianju was the No. 1 restaurant in Taizhou Prefecture. It would be good if it could keep its original profit. It would be very difficult to improve it. not easy.

   "This Xu Heyou is really interesting. If he was born so early, I might have nothing to do with him." Fan Chengxu smiled.

   "Young master, don't worry, this young master Xu has some skills, but he can't compare with you, young master." Shopkeeper Shen hurriedly said.

   "It's hard to say," Fan Chengxu was confident but not conceited, and he didn't dare to say too much about some things.

   Shopkeeper Shen smiled and said yes.

   "I heard that Xu Heyou was going around trying to persuade people to re-raise seedlings a while ago?" Fan Chengxu asked.

"Yes, he visited the farmland everywhere, and when he saw problems, he persuaded the owner to raise seedlings again, but not many people listened to his advice. But recently, a large number of seedlings died of illness, which verified Mr. Xu's previous statement, and many of them did not listen to Mr. Xu's persuasion. Everyone regretted it, but those who listened to Mr. Xu's words are now grateful to Mr. Xu and regard Mr. Xu as a great benefactor." Shopkeeper Shen replied.

   "It's interesting." Fan Chengxu commented, and then asked, "Are there any bad seedlings on my farm?"

  Fan Chengxu has taken root in Taizhou Prefecture for several years, and he has bought some properties.

   "My son has some problems in Zhuangzi in Taizhou Prefecture, but you can rest assured that the proportion of rice seedlings is not large, and it will not have a big impact on this year's grain production."

   "The next time someone from Xu Heyou comes to deliver something, send a message saying that I have something to talk to him about." Fan Chengxu said.

   "Yes." Shopkeeper Shen wrote it down immediately.

  Wei Ruo's brewery was finally completed.

The raw materials for brewing wine are grains and potatoes. The grains are mainly sorghum, rice, glutinous rice, corn, and wheat. Except for corn, which does not exist at present, the others are relatively common grains, and rice, glutinous rice, and wheat Weiruo One's own Zhuangzi has property.

   The potatoes are mainly sweet potatoes and cassava, and there is no shortage of sweet potato Weiruo.

   There is no shortage of supplementary materials such as rice husk, rice bran, and sorghum husk required for fermentation.

   Wei Ruo, the mother of distiller's koji, which is the key to fermentation, had already arranged for people to look for it as early as the beginning of preparations for the brewery.

  The brewing process of baijiu is mainly divided into seven steps: raw material crushing, batching, cooking and gelatinization, cooling, mixing unstrained spirits, cellar fermentation, and wine steaming.

   Relatively speaking, this is Wei Ruo's most complicated workshop so far. If such a workshop wants high output, it needs more manpower than previous workshops.

  However, Wei Ruo does not plan to increase production at this stage, but only plans to make small boutiques.

   Originally, Wei Ruo didn't plan to make wine on a large scale because she felt that in this era when food was not affluent, increasing food production and feeding more talents was the first task to bear the brunt.

  Using grain to make wine is an act of compromising grain. One kilogram of grain can fill the stomach, but the wine brewed from one kilogram of grain cannot feed people.

   But baijiu can be sold at a high price and can be exchanged for more resources. It can play the same role as Sibaozhai. This is worthwhile for Wei Ruo at the current stage and will help increase the speed of Wei Ruo's expansion.

  Because the winemaking process is relatively delicate, and some techniques need to be kept secret, Wei Ruo is also very careful in the selection of workers in the winery.

  The job of initial selection was handed over to Guanshi Yu. Wei Ruo believed in Guanshi Yu, and Guanshi Yu had more contact with everyone in Zhuangzi and had a deeper understanding.

  Boss Yu was very concerned about this, and carefully selected for several days before submitting the list, a total of ten people.

   Today Wei Ruolai met with these ten people in the brewery, conducted some simple inquiries, and conducted some tests on them, and finally selected six of them.

   Then Wei Ruo handed over the "Training Guide" he had written long ago to Manager Yu.

   "Please tell Manager Yu to train them according to the above." Wei Ruo said.

   "Okay, boss, please rest assured, I will train them strictly according to the requirements of the boss, so that they can work for the boss as soon as possible." Manager Yu solemnly promised Wei Ruo.
