The strongest peasant girl in Xiuse Jinyuan

Chapter 580 Harvest Planning to Open a Winery (5)
Wei Changju was worried that the work was too heavy and everyone worked too hard. In the following days, every meal was prepared with enough oil and water, so that the meat could be eaten comfortably, and the meals should be full. He also specially ordered Chuntao and Chunhe sisters to go to the fields every day Deliver tea several times.

Although the work is tiring, the food is full of oil and water, which suits the taste. A group of people eat to their heart's content and smile happily, so they don't feel how hard it is.

After working for nearly half a month, I finally put the corn and sorghum in the field into the warehouse.

Time flies by like a fleeting horse, and in a blink of an eye, it has already reached the end of July.

Recently, Wei Changqu was thinking about opening a winery.

I just harvested sorghum and corn, which can be used as raw materials for wine making. Anyway, coarse grains such as sorghum and corn can’t be sold at a good price. Should be higher.

Wei Changjue had tasted liquor from this era. The alcohol concentration was around [-] to [-] degrees. It should have been fermented and directly filtered without going through the process of distillation.

Opening a winery, one, can distill high-alcohol shochu in this era, and two, build a pig farm near the winery, raise pigs directly with distiller's grains, and use waste resources to kill two birds with one stone.

He made a plan in his heart, and when the corn and sorghum were being harvested, Wei Changqu had already sent a message to Xu Qiusheng from Weiji, asking him to inquire in Zhishui Town to see if anyone had a house for sale.

The corn and sorghum were dried and put into the warehouse. The next morning, Wei Changqu ordered Sufeng and Gu Yu to drive to Zhishui Town.

When we arrived at Zhishui Town, Wei Changqu went straight to Weiji.

"Miss, Wei Ji is here." Su Feng grabbed the reins, parked the carriage not far from Wei Ji's gate, jumped out of the carriage with Gu Yu, and reminded Wei Changjue through a curtain door.

Waking up early in the morning, a little sleepy, Wei Changjue sat in the carriage and dozed off, when Sufeng's voice came in, she quietly opened her eyes, responded, and jumped out of the carriage neatly.

Xu Bu walked into Wei Ji, and saw Xu Qiusheng, Er Niu, Liu Fu and several others were busy working.

The vegetables Wei Ji sells are fresh and there are many kinds. A while ago, new products such as roasted seeds and peppers and cabbage were added. Now, the business is very good, and it is considered well-known in Zhishui Town.

After Xu Qiusheng settled the bill for a woman who was shopping for vegetables, he raised his head and saw Wei Changqu.

"Changqu, you're here." He stopped the abacus in his hand, and greeted Wei Changqu with a smile on his face.

Wei Changqu smiled, nodded slightly at Xu Qiusheng, walked up to Xu Qiusheng in a few steps, and said politely: "Uncle Xu, business has been good recently, thank you for your hard work."

"What's the trouble?" Xu Qiusheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and replied.

"Business people are not afraid of hard work, but they are afraid that no guests will come to the door." He has a deep understanding of this.

Hearing what Xu Qiusheng said, Wei Changqu smiled slightly.

Xu Qiusheng naturally knew that Wei Changqu's visit to Zhishui Town must be to buy a house and open a winery, and said: "Changqu, I have already inquired about buying a house."

"Yes." Wei Changqu nodded.

Business was good in the morning, and Wei Changjue watched the customers coming and going in the shop. Xu Qiusheng was afraid that he would not be able to get away for a while, so he told her about buying a house and opening a winery, so he said, "Uncle Xu, you should do your work first. Let's talk about buying a house after you finish your work, I will wait for you in the inner room first."

"Okay." Xu Qiusheng nodded repeatedly, at this moment, he really couldn't get away.

Seeing that another guest came to pay the bill, Wei Changhe led Sufeng and Gu Yu to the inner room.

Simply waiting, there was nothing to do, and finally entered the inner room, while drinking tea, Wei Changju looked up Wei Ji's account book for June and July.

When it was nearly noon, Xu Qiusheng had to take a breather.

Seeing that there were fewer guests, Xu Qiusheng told Er Niu and Liu Fu a few words, then put aside his calculations and walked quickly into the inner room.

In the inner room, Wei Changjue had already drank a few cups of tea, and checked the account books for June and July. Seeing Xu Qiusheng walking in hurriedly, she pursed her lips and smiled, and said, "Uncle Xu, there are so many guests, I'm tired." Come on, sit down and have a cup of tea."

Xu Qiusheng felt a little sorry for making Wei Changqu wait the whole morning, and he didn't have time to drink tea.

"Long Que, I kept you waiting."

"While I'm free, uncle will take you to see those two houses." After finishing speaking, he poured a bowl of tea and was about to invite Wei Changjue to go out.

Seeing that Xu Qiusheng had already reached the door of the inner room, Wei Changhe had no choice but to stand up, lead Sufeng, and Gu Yu followed.

After leaving Wei Ji, Xu Qiusheng told Wei Changjue about the news he had found out in detail as he walked along the street.

He took a fancy to two small houses.

The two small houses are about the same size, with a main hall and four or five rooms, all located in the center of the town.

A house with a vegetable field in the back and an ancient well in the yard. The ancient well will not dry up all year round, but this house is a bit weird. There are always strange crying sounds at night. It is said that it is haunted, so no one dares to buy it.

There is nothing strange about the other house, it is just a courtyard, there is no open space beside it, and there is no well in the courtyard, and the drinking water has to be fetched outside.

After hearing Xu Qiusheng's detailed description, Wei Changju said simply: "Let's go to the house with the ancient well."

She was originally a ray of lonely soul traveling through, ghosts or something, there is nothing to be afraid of, but she really wanted to see if there were really ghosts in that house, or if someone was pretending to be a ghost.

Furthermore, building a winery requires a lot of water, and the ancient well in the house does not dry up all year round, which has played a big role. The vegetable field in the backyard can also be used to build a pig farm.

Xu Qiusheng paused slightly after hearing what Wei Changjue said, looked at Wei Changjue, and said, "Changjue, that house is not very clean, no one dares to buy it, why don't you think about it again."

People in this era believe in ghosts and gods, so Wei Changqu naturally knew that Xu Qiusheng had good intentions and was afraid that she would lose out.

Smiling at Xu Qiusheng, he said, "Uncle Xu, I've already thought about it, take me to have a look first."

Seeing that Changju Wei had made up his mind, Xu Qiusheng had no choice but to take her there.

After walking two streets, Xu Qiusheng pointed to a house not far ahead, and said to Wei Changqu: "Changqu, uncle said, this is the house."

Wei Changju raised his eyes, looked forward, and his eyes fell on the door of the house.

The gate of the courtyard is tall and spacious, and it is convenient to carry things in and out. Horse carts and ox carts can also pass directly, which is not bad.

After taking a quick look, Wei Changqu looked sideways at Gu Yu beside him, and ordered, "Gu Yu, go and knock on the door."

"Yes, Miss." Gu Yu responded, walked quickly to the door, reached out and knocked on the door knocker.
