Siheyuan: This driver is too arrogant

Chapter 210 Five thousand catties of sorghum! (seeking subscription)

In Huzigou in Changbai Mountain, the scenery remains the same, and nothing seems to have changed, except that there are a few new graves in the village.

"No wonder Wei Dong didn't bring his daughter-in-law here. He co-authored it because he was afraid that we would abduct your daughter-in-law!" Xing Wang's voice was rough and loud. As soon as the car stopped, she stepped forward to help carry things, and saw that she was as beautiful as a flower. The same little Gege, overjoyed, knocked twice through the hinged window, "Mom, come out and have a look, Weidong has brought his wife home!"

"Let me take a look!" The old lady who was sitting cross-legged on the kang smoking a cigarette hastily pulled her shoes down to the ground, while Little Gege and Liu Weidong were already carrying big and small packages, wrapped in December's wind and snow, and pushed open the door. came in.

"This is Grandma Xing." Liu Weidong introduced to his daughter-in-law. According to seniority, Mrs. Xing should be counted as the same generation as her grandfather. She has been a servant of the Han family for many years and kept such valuable things for them. Call her grandma , just right.

"Happy New Year, grandma!" Little Gege put the things she brought on the ground, her little face flushed with embarrassment, and Mrs. Xing hurriedly took her hand and looked left and right, "Tsk tsk, this girl is so handsome, she is four years older than her." Miss was pretty when she was young, don't stick around here, let's all come into the house! Boss, daughter-in-law, that reed chicken of yours was killed!"

"Eh!"

The fat sister-in-law responded, and rushed out of the door, and after a while, she heard the sound of chickens and dogs jumping outside.

"Brother, who is Miss Fourth?" Little Gege asked in a low voice, Liu Weidong raised his eyebrows, "It's my mother."

Little Gege blinked and almost forgot about this!
When the distinguished guests arrived, the Xing family warmly entertained them, while Xing Liwu was fascinated by Hai Dongqing who flew up to the roof and refused to come down.

"Weidong, where did you get this big bird..."

"I got it from the grassland, Haidongqing, this variety is also found in the mountains!" Liu Weidong whistled, and then the uncle Haidongqing condescended to land on his shoulders, still looking vigilantly. Looking at Xing Liwu, seeing him stretching out his hand, he immediately raised his wings and made a threatening hissing sound, warning him not to approach!
Xing Liwu smiled awkwardly, this bird is quite scary!
"Second Uncle, is there still spring water on Laoye Ridge?" Liu Weidong came here for this purpose, but Xing Liwu was stunned. In this winter, the dripping water turns into ice, so why does Weidong want to drink spring water when he comes here?

Is this thing a cure for any disease or...

"Let's go take a look after dinner!"

The lunch was very sumptuous. In order to entertain Liu Weidong and his wife who came from afar, Xing Wang used all his skills to fry and cook a busy meal, making eight large bowls of noodles. The four Xing family brothers: Li Wen, Liwu, Licai and Li Biao also came, and they sat at the table to accompany the wine, and the guests enjoyed themselves.

After dinner, Liu Weidong followed Xing Liwen into the mountains. The weather this winter is very strange. It has not snowed until now, and the ground is covered with dry leaves and grass roots. Occasionally, he walked into an old forest, and there was a bang, and everyone was shocked. pheasant.

"There hasn't been a single snowfall since the beginning of winter. I'm afraid it will be a dry year next year!" Xing Liwen walked ahead holding a rope stick. He raised his head, looked at the mountains in the distance, and sighed faintly.

The mountains are full of treasures, but they can only watch and suffer from poverty!

"Uncle, what is this?" Walking into the mountains, Liu Weidong discovered that there were still some small wooden houses made of birch bark in some corners of the mountains. Hanging kindling, water jars, iron pots... and a cloth bag, half a bag of sorghum was in it.

"This is the place where hunters in the mountains take shelter from the wind and rain. If anyone is in Mada Mountain, if there is a disaster or disaster, they will come in and hide, light a fire and cook some food. When they are out of trouble, they will come back and give them food and firewood. It is convenient for people who come later.”

Xing Liwen weighed the remaining half bag of sorghum, and then looked at the ashes left in the firepit on the ground, "This Gada Mountain is no better than the Great Plains in the west. The water and soil are not good, and the sorghum is easy to live. Now the higher-ups advocate planting sorghum, but it's not tasty. La voice."

"There are indeed a lot of sorghum..." Liu Weidong stood halfway up the mountain, looking at the hillside where the trees had been cut down and left a dense sorghum stubble, and frowned slightly.

What a pity such a beautiful landscape!
Ahead is where the spring is located. A [-]cm thick spring is gurgling and bubbling out. The gurgling water flows down the river channel that has been washed for tens of thousands of years, and merges into the vast Songhua River.

Liu Weidong squatted down, stepped on the solid ice by the stream, took a pinch of spring water in his hand and tasted it.

It's sweet and sweet, refreshing, and it cheers him up!
He stood up again, came to the spring, looked at the spring that kept bubbling out at that moment, and asked Xing Liwen with a smile, "Uncle, where do you think the water in this spring comes from?"

"Then we don't know!" Xing Liwen smiled honestly, "I do know that the water here is delicious, and those roe deer and roe deer come here to drink water. Look at the footprints, densely packed..."

To Liu Weidong's surprise, there is not only one spring on the bright side, but also a large number of small springs hidden under the thick leaves. Convergence, flow down the mountain.

"It's such a pity that so much natural mineral water just flows away in vain!" Liu Weidong looked at the water, feeling extremely distressed!

Where is this water, it is simply money!
Flowing banknotes!
How else can you say that the people in Changbai Mountain are guarding the cornucopia, but using begging sticks!
"Last year I vowed not to shoot roe deer. This year is also strange. I haven't seen a single roe deer..." Xing Liwen stood on a high place and looked around, muttering something, Liu Weidong stood up, "Uncle, let me see you tooth."

"What's so good about teeth!" Xing Liwen felt a little embarrassed by his magical request, Liu Weidong stubbornly asked him to open his mouth, Xing Liwen had no choice but to bark his teeth.

Expose the iconic front teeth of the Han people.

"It's so white!" Liu Weidong sighed in admiration. This is probably the benefit of drinking mountain spring water all year round!
"Weidong, you have to look at the spring water since you came, and now you want to look at uncle's teeth. Tell uncle, what are you thinking?" Xing Liwen closed his mouth with a flushed face, and asked him. Liu Weidong smiled, "Of course I want to." It’s a good thing, it’s just that the horoscope hasn’t been written yet, I’ll tell you when I figure it out.”

"It's done!"

On the way down the mountain, the two also caught several pheasants, each of which was fat and fat. After slaughtering, they were chopped into small pieces and placed in the pot. The yellow chicken fat filled the room with a fragrance, and Liu Weidong couldn't help but suck more. Nose twice.

Veteran Youzi went to visit relatives in Ant Ditch as usual, and Liu Weidong drove him there. The old fellow went to visit the fifth aunt's grave first, wiped away two tears, and then plunged into the old Han's house in Ant Ditch, giving gifts from door to door.

What Liu Weidong admires the most is this guy's super diplomatic ability. No matter the big girl or the young wife, or the gentleman and the young man, he can chat with others, making them laugh from ear to ear.

This is probably an innate superpower!

He believed that if the old soldier Youzi was sent to the African gorilla den, within ten days, he would be able to become brothers with the orangutan king, and by the way, he would have a few female orangutans!

In this regard, people are professional!
"Brother Qin, it's just in time for you to come. I have something to chat with you!" Han Yusheng, the son of the white-haired Han Dianju, the head of the fifth house of the Han family, called the two of them aside, and said in a low voice.

"What's new in the mountains?" Qin Yongjiang's eyes were shining.

"It's okay, it's just that our grain depot has [-] catties of resold grain that we can't deal with. You know that these grains are sold to farmers with IOUs, and you can't get a penny back. Now I'm thinking of borrowing your car to sell the sorghum. , exchange two money to spend, seeing that the new year is approaching, the team is also difficult..."

It's sorghum again!

"Uncle Han, you are really courageous, aren't you afraid to let your superiors know?"

"This matter, Lao Hu also nodded..." Han Yusheng was a little unhappy, "Besides, if we don't sell this grain, we will have a hard time plowing the land next spring!"

Liu Weidong frowned and interjected, "Uncle Wu, how much sorghum do you have in stock now?"

"It's about five thousand catties, Weidong, can you help us toss it out?" Han Yusheng didn't know that Liu Weidong was the biological son of the fourth lady of the main house of the Han family. He only thought he was Qin Yongjiang's follower, and asked with a smile.

"Almost." Liu Weidong hesitated, "Well, I want the five thousand catties of sorghum. Let's see how much it is!"

"Weidong, you are crazy, what do you want sorghum for, feed the pheasants!"

Qin Yongjiang was in a hurry first, the sorghum was hard and throaty, it was not cooked through, it was very unpalatable, most people would not eat it.

Besides, the quality of this kind of resale grain is particularly poor. Half of it is sorghum grains and half is sorghum husks.

"Of course I'm useful!" Liu Weidong took out 200 yuan from his pocket and patted it on the kang mat. "Do you think this is enough?"

"Enough!" Han Yusheng made some calculations. Five thousand catties of sorghum sold for 200 yuan, or four cents per catty!
It's worth it!

"Then let's hurry up and load the car!"

Liu Weidong was afraid that the night would be long and dreamy, so he made a quick decision and brought five thousand catties of sorghum back to Huzigou. Seeing him return with a cart full of reselling sorghum, the Xing family was a little puzzled.

"Grandson, you can get some rice buns and bean buns, but what are you doing with whole sorghum? It's still junk!" Mrs. Xing also didn't understand.

Liu Weidong smiled, "Old lady, I will test you with a question!"

"This kid, you're still teasing me, tell me!" Mrs. Xing grinned, but her big teeth were yellowed by smoke.

"When my grandfather's family first came to Kanto, what did they do for a living?"

"You can't help me with this matter. When the Han family came to Kanto in the early years, it was the whole shochu workshop..."

As soon as the old lady said a word, everyone was taken aback for a moment. He and Liu Weidong came back after harvesting so much sorghum. Could it be that they wanted to go the way of their ancestors, brewing wine?
"That's right!" Facing Xing Liwen's question, Liu Weidong smiled, "I think Laoye Ridge has beautiful mountains and rivers, so we can definitely make good wine!"

"Okay, I'm just proud of that sip, let's hurry up!" The old lady was the first to be happy, she hadn't had the authentic Kanto burn from Hanbian's family for many years, she was greedy!

"Weidong is thoughtful, brewing wine is a good way, but we don't have brewing equipment at hand..." Xing Libiao agrees with Liu Weidong's idea. Compared with other agricultural and sideline products, wine has the highest added value!

Now the purchase price of sorghum is only three cents a catty, the price is ridiculously low!
As for wine...

A bottle of the most common shochu costs around sixty-five cents!

The scissors in the middle are horrible and outrageous!

If good wine can be brewed, then the whole village will benefit from it!

"You don't have to worry about Uncle Si, I got a lot of money this time!" Liu Weidong took out a stack of Datong and stuffed it to him, "I'll leave it to you to handle the brewing equipment, koji, and brewing master." , don’t tell me no, there’s no one in the bandit den who doesn’t drink!”

"I let you figure it out!" Xing Liwu also came over, patted him on the shoulder, and grinned.

Wine is his favorite!
Xing Libiao is worthy of being the small leader of the factory. He immediately called up all the idle labor in the village, and started his own method. It took three days to set up a brewing workshop.

As for the koji used for wine making, you can buy it at the supply and marketing cooperative in the town.

Regarding the matter of brewing wine, Liu Weidong didn't just think about it for a while. He had been thinking about the spring of Laoyeling for a long time!
But after thinking about it, he realized that it is too advanced to engage in mineral water in this era, filling, testing, transporting...

I can't play with any of them!
Only by brewing wine can the value of spring water be developed!
Just before the new year, the winemaking workshop in Huzigou secretly started work. After setting off the first string of firecrackers, a donkey cart was seen running in the distance!

It was none other than Hu Da confused and Hu Chuanfu sitting on the shaft of the chariot!
Why is he here?

Xing Liwu picked up the shovel at the door and was about to step forward when Liu Weidong grabbed him.
