He looked at her face and said, "The fourth uncle thought, we have to do it step by step. The fourth uncle will go out for a walk first. Find a kiln maker nearby and order a batch of good jars. The fourth uncle thought, we have to do it step by step."
Not just for ten pounds?”
"Okay," Tang Shiyue said with a smile: "If we open our own wine shop, we can make two-pound, five-pound, or ten-pound bottles. But since we have decided to supply the restaurant first, we can only make ten-pound bottles.
In addition, we can also order a batch of 50-pound wine jars, filter them out at that time, and sell them directly like this. It is convenient for their restaurants to sell them for takeout, and we also save money on the jars."
"Well," Fourth Uncle Tang scratched his head: "When this matter is over, we will open the bayberry wine and taste it, and then start brewing the bayberry wine. Let me tell your aunt about it. Didn't you say that the bayberry doesn't need to be cut?
Well? We still have enough manpower, we can finish it in two days. We won’t hire anyone this time.”
He looked at her and then said: "When this work is over, my uncle will have to harvest wheat. He will have to be busy for several days. After harvesting the wheat, he will make ale. When it is time to brew the ale, we will invite others.
, I was thinking that by then, bayberry wine will be released, and there will be more money, but if it doesn’t work... we will find another place, and then we will discuss with the clan leader to open a big winery! What do you think?
?”
Tang Shiyue smiled and nodded.
She was indeed right about the person. Fourth Uncle Tang, with a little push, figured out all these things by himself. He was quite planned and courageous. He didn't look forward or backward. This kind of person was very easy to work with.
Tang Shiyue smiled and praised him for a long time, and then said: "Do you have the ale you brewed before? I was thinking that without wasting time in the meantime, I can try peaches, apricots, or loquats, or all of them.
."
"Yes," Tang Fourth Uncle said, "There are still seven or eight altars, why don't we try half an altar and half an altar?"
Tang Shiyue said: "It's done."
Uncle Tang went to make an appointment with Qi Jing, and the two of them drove out in a mule cart to order the jar.
Tang Shiyue was bored at home, so he made an appointment with Mrs. Zhou. The two went to dig wild vegetables in the mountains. Mrs. Zhou asked about roping rabbits, so Tang Shiyue found another place and set up a few nooses with her.
The next day, they took out the bayberry wine and tasted it.
In fact, to be honest, sand fruit wine is not the most suitable fruit for making wine because it is too soft. To make wine, it must be a highly sour or sweet fruit with a juicy taste, such as grapes, green plums, and bayberries.
, star fruit and the like.
So they served bayberry wine together, and Fourth Uncle Tang was in a daze all night. He just said "it's so delicious" over and over again twenty or thirty times. Even Qi Jing, who has always been calm and not greedy for drinks, also
I couldn't help but drink two more glasses, and said to her: "This wine is not only delicious, but also has a beautiful color. If it is served in a glass cup, it will definitely look very good."
Tang Shiyue understood instantly: "Glow-in-the-dark cup of grape wine?"
Qi Jing glanced at her with a smile on his lips. His dark eyes reflected the moonlight, so bright...
Tang Shiyue's little heart was pounding, and she suddenly discovered that "men are seductive" is a real thing. The key is that he is not evil-looking, he is very handsome, masculine, and a man. This unintentionally bloomed
The unique color is particularly touching.
The next day, they bought medicinal materials and started making bayberry wine.
While he was busy, Fourth Uncle Tang couldn't help but said: "This bayberry wine and Shaguo wine were sold at the same price, but they were sold at a loss!"
Madam Zhou laughed and scolded him: "Look at your bad character that can't be suppressed. Zhao Zhao'er doesn't even know his surname. He was so scared when he first said he would sell it for ten taels of silver. Now he dared to say that he had lost money. !”
Fourth Uncle Tang chuckled and said, "I'm not saying that the ten taels of silver were sold at a loss, I'm saying that the bayberry wine and the Shaguo wine are at a loss for the same price!" He asked Tang Shiyue sheepishly: "Yue'er said that's right?"
"Fourth uncle," Tang Shiyue said with a smile: "Actually, many wines are better than Shaguo wine. But fourth uncle, you have to understand one thing." She paused: "We are just country people with no rights. , no potential, if the price is too high and we have huge wealth, it is not a good thing for us. Whenever someone becomes coveted and makes a harmful move, we will not be able to resist it. When the time comes, our fate If it’s gone, what’s the use of having more silver?”
Fourth Uncle Tang stopped laughing at that time, looked at Madam Zhou and nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Yue'er is right!"
Tang Shiyue said slowly: "So, what we are looking for now is safety, and we should not sell it too high. For Shopkeeper Shen, because of its 'novelty', Sha Guo Liquor does not feel like a loss, but if both If it tastes like this, he will naturally not want it, but what if the wine he delivers tastes better every time? If the wine is good and the price does not rise, he will naturally feel that he has made a lot of money. Do you understand what I mean? "
She turned back to look at them: "We need his protection. But what he protects is not us, but his own interests. The greater the interests, the more concerned he will be in protecting us. We can enjoy the shade under the big tree and make less money." Some money will buy you peace."
Fourth Uncle Tang and Madam Zhou felt it was right and nodded vigorously.
Tang Shiyue said with a smile: "Besides, I'm thinking that this wine is an exclusive secret. Sifang Restaurant can naturally use this wine to make things better. We are a stepping stone for him. If Shopkeeper Shen knows how to be a good person, he will take the initiative to give it to us." If the price increaser pretends to be confused, then his vision is limited and his achievements are not high. After a year, we should have enough weight to leave him and choose someone else, or open a wine shop ourselves. How can he be nothing more than a stepping stone to us?"
"That's weird!" Uncle Tang was so impressed that he said, "You insist on signing for one year! I was still thinking that we finally got along, so why don't we sign for a few more years! I couldn't do it in a hurry! Fortunately, I didn't Talk!" He chuckled.
Qi Jing suddenly asked: "Then how do you know that Sifang Restaurant must be a 'big tree'?"
That's right! So Uncle Tang and his wife both looked at her.
Tang Shiyue said with a smile: "I know nothing about the town, but I know that Sifang Restaurant is very luxurious, but it is not new, and the signboard is not new either. Restaurants always have to change their signboards when changing owners. This is a common practice. It’s not new, which proves that Sifang Restaurant has been here for at least ten years... The time-honored restaurant is still so prosperous, with customers coming in like clouds, which shows that the restaurant must have something to offer."
She paused for a moment, "Also, I noticed that this restaurant was at least a few hundred steps away, and there wasn't even a restaurant. But after a few hundred steps, there were so many restaurants, and I didn't even dare to take advantage of the heat... What's wrong with this? In other words, the phenomenon of exclusive monopoly operation is a manifestation of their apparent power."
Although he had never heard of some of the words she said, he could easily understand the meaning, and Qi Jing nodded silently.
Tang Shiyue added: "Furthermore, I found that there was no gangster beggar under the Sifang Restaurant. I felt that this restaurant was also powerful secretly. At that time, I thought, it takes both black and white, and it is well managed. It is a very thick golden thigh." , you can hug it.”
What can’t be hugged? Qi Jing frowned.
Tang Shiyue was just talking casually, but she didn't know that these words would soon reach the ears of Shopkeeper Shen, which would make Shopkeeper Shen's opinion of her rise several levels higher... Of course, this is a story for another time. (Unfinished) to be continued)
