Chapter 87

"It's not worth selling it, it's better to use it to make wine." Jinxuan misses wine very much, and she wants to use these grapes to make wine to drink.

Wine making, can grapes still make wine?He had heard of raisins, but he had never heard of wine. Song Quan looked at Jinxuan in astonishment, "Aunt Wu, are you sure you want to make wine?"

"Do I seem to be joking?" Jinxuan reached out and tapped Song Quan on the head: "I saw someone make wine from grapes in a book. The book recorded the method of wine making. I heard that three catties of grapes can make more than one catty of wine. , if I can make wine too, we'll be rich."

"Three catties of grapes cost five or six taels of silver. How much can a catty of wine sell for? I don't think it's worthwhile to make wine." Song Quan was silently calculating the cost.

"Boy, this wine is a rarity. We can make 300 to [-] catties of wine with a bunch of grapes, and the wine I brew will sell for at least two or three hundred taels." It's not that Jinxuan is boasting, she really knows how to make wine, Not only can she make wine, but many modern housewives can also make wine. Every time the grapes are in season, she buys some grapes and makes wine by herself.

"Fifth Aunt, since wine is a rarity, why don't we buy some grapes from Beixincheng and brew it ourselves, then we will earn double the price." Song Quan is quite business-minded, and he suggested that Jinxuan go to Beixincheng to buy grapes .

"You have a business mind, learn from me." Jinxuan patted Song Quan on the shoulder and gave Song Quan a thumbs up.

"This season is the season when grapes are on the market. I will discuss with your uncle to see if I can go to Beixincheng in person, but before going to Beixincheng, we have to prepare the money for buying grapes. I have a few hundred taels of silver in my hand." It is estimated that it is enough to buy several hundred catties of grapes."

"Hey, we are dragging Aunt Fifth down." Song Quan felt guilty, he wanted to help Jinxuan solve the problem, but there was nothing he could do.

"You silly boy, we are a family, and you still say that it is not a burden. Don't underestimate a few hundred catties of grapes, you can make one or two hundred catties of wine. No one has ever brewed this wine. When the time comes, we will take If you go to the capital to sell it, it is possible for a jar of several thousand taels."

If she doesn't do it, she will be her own brand.

"Ah Quan, you stay here, don't run around, I'll go nearby to see if there are any other treasures." Jinxuan planned to find an excuse to leave, took out a young ginseng plant from the space, and pawned it in the town. Used to buy grapes.

The money in their hands must have a reasonable source in order for the Song family to trust them.

"Fifth Aunt, it's not safe for you to take risks alone." Song Quan called Jinxuan, but he refused to let Jinxuan go. He thought: This old forest deep in the mountains is too dangerous. If something happens to his Fifth Aunt, he will be fine. Explain to his fifth uncle.

"I know martial arts, so I won't be in any danger, but you, you have to pay attention to safety." When Jinxuan left, she gave Song Quan the quiver on her back, and asked him to keep it for self-defense. If something happened to Song Quan, Jinxuan would not It is better to explain to the Chen couple.

"Five." Before Song Quan could shout out, Jin Xuan had already disappeared into the dense forest.

She left for about a cup of tea, and Song Zichen came back. Song Zichen didn't see Jinxuan, so he was a little anxious.

"Ah Quan, where did your fifth aunt go?"

"Uncle Wu, don't worry, my Aunt Wu said, she's just walking around, let's wait for her to come back."

As soon as his little wife entered the mountain, she became wild. If she knew that he would not accompany her into the mountain, what would he do if something happened to her.

Jinxuan went to search for treasure nearby, but found nothing. She dug a ginseng plant from the space, and then used the soil to stain her face and clothes, making the illusion of rolling down the hillside, so as to fool Song Quan.

When she went back to the wild vine, Song Zichen saw her in such a mess, and thought something had happened to her.

He distressedly pulled her to look left and right.

"I did it on purpose, it's okay." Jinxuan told Song Zichen in a low voice, it was her plan, and Song Zichen was relieved.

"You are so naughty, look at your face covered with dirt." Song Zichen took out an embroidered handkerchief and wiped off the dirt on Jinxuan's face himself.

"It was worth the fall I just had. I picked up a ginseng plant that is 800 years old." Jinxuan took out the ginseng from her pocket and handed it to Song Zichen. Song Zichen looked surprised.

"You mean you fell down the mountain, but it was a blessing in disguise and you picked up ginseng."

"How much do you think it's worth?" Jinxuan looked at Song Zichen expectantly, and Song Zichen told her that it was worth several thousand taels of silver. Song Quan was shocked when he heard how many thousand taels.

"Fifth Aunt, you are really a god of luck, no matter where you go, you are so lucky." Song Quan admires Jinxuan very much, he already regards Jinxuan as a god.

"Ah Quan, let's pick the grapes first. I'm afraid we won't be able to keep the grapes. I'm worried that the villagers will come to Cangyan Mountain to hunt for treasures when they know we have picked up ginseng." Jinxuan planned to transplant the grapes back home immediately. She was afraid that it would be too late, and the vines would be taken away.

"You don't need to worry, lady. Most villagers don't dare to go up Cangyan Mountain. What's more, Cangyan Mountain is different from other mountains. The location of the grapes is very hidden, so they shouldn't be able to find them." Song Zichen didn't suggest moving the grapes back. With so many vines, it would be a pity if they couldn’t support them when they moved back home. They made a mark first, and when all the grapes were picked, we would dig them back home and plant them slowly in winter.

Jinxuan and the others picked a full two backs of grapes, a total of [-] to [-] catties, and it was dusk when they were about to go down the mountain.

Song Zichen and Song Quan are the ones carrying the scepter, and Jinxuan is holding the quiver complicatedly.

"What are Zichen and the others carrying! It's such a big one!"

"They probably dug up the treasure. Look at them one and two are very happy."

"We'll know what it is when we go and ask."

When Jinxuan and the others went to the village, the workers in the village also went home one after another. They picked up their hoes and stared at Jinxuan and the others curiously.

"Zichen, are the grasses in your backs a herbal medicine?" In order to prevent the villagers from asking questions, Jinxuan and the others decorated the backs when they went down the mountain.

"Some edible herbs and wild vegetables." Song Zichen asked his wife.

"Oh, you have so many vegetables in your field, and you still dig wild vegetables to eat. The wild vegetables are too bitter." The woman didn't quite believe Song Zichen's words. While she was still distracted, Jinxuan, his wife and Song all walked away. .

"Uncle Wu, these grapes are not easy to store. We must deal with them as soon as possible when we take them back, otherwise it will be a pity if they break." Song Quan suggested in a low voice when approaching the door.

"Take part of it and put it in the cellar to freeze, and I will move the rest to Mo Yunxuan to make wine." Jinxuan has already figured out where to go for the wild grapes, and when she returns home tomorrow, she will give them away, and the rest will be used winemaking.

"Xuanxuan, you are covered in mud, have you met a wild animal?" Jinxuan followed Song Zichen into the courtyard, and Xia Dongqing, who was enjoying the cool in the courtyard, saw her in such a mess, she was a little worried.

"Sister Dongqing, I'm fine. You ask everyone to come to the main hall. I have something important to announce." Jinxuan said, asking Song Zichen and Song Quan to carry the grapes to the main hall.
