Traveling through the farmhouse: farming and making a fortune and raising cubs

Wang Nian's matter was quickly put behind the two of them. After all, she was no longer a child, and they were not her family, so they had no control over her affairs.

Recently, Lin He was teaching Mr. Wang how to filter wine.

On the day they first arrived, Manager Wang brought two jars back, and all twenty people tasted them, and they were particularly enthusiastic about their work.

The wine sent to Jinrong in the capital has already left.

It was originally said to send ten altars, but later I learned from Manager Wang that there was a waterway from Nanzhi County to the capital, which could save half the time.

So the ten jars of wine that were originally mentioned turned into a hundred jars of wine, and we set out now to deliver it just before the Chinese New Year.

This is a rare opportunity to make a lot of money. Anyway, there is a lot of wine left. According to the past, a large amount of wine has been exported in these months.

In Nanzhi County and nearby counties, even if the wine can be sold, the price cannot be raised, so it is best to send it to the capital.

Rich people's money is nothing if not earned.

The only thing that surprised Lin He was that Li Changhui didn't know about the waterway.

In other words, he knew that there was water transportation in Da'an Dynasty, but he didn't know that there was also a waterway from Nanzhi County to the capital.

In other words, if they go to the capital, it actually won't take as long as three months. If they are lucky, it will take one and a half months, or at most two months if they are slow.

This is what Manager Wang said personally.

This is a great comfort to Lin He!

But that’s all for next year. The most important thing right now is making this year’s wine.

The front door of Li's house is always closed, and baskets of grapes are placed at the back door. This year, grape pickers are not allowed to enter the yard, but are placed directly at the back door.

The back door is closed most of the time. Only when there are more grapes, the manager Wang will move them in, clean them, dry them, and then make wine.

In this way, the secrets of the wine will not be discovered as much as possible.

At this time, the first seven-day fermentation of the first batch had ended. Lin He had to teach them to filter all the residue, seal it and store it for half a month, and then filter it a second time.

During this period, the remaining grapes are also stirred every day to allow them to fully ferment.

If they were still skeptical on the first day, when they stirred the grapes and smelled the wine on the second and third days, no one had any doubts anymore, and they were even looking forward to the wine they brewed.

After nearly another month of busy work, when the temperature began to drop and it felt a little cool during the day, the grapes finally matured and were made into wine that filled the yard.

At this time, there was no need for so many people to stay here every day, so Manager Wang and others began to follow Li Changhui to deliver wine.

Unexpectedly, among these people, there are also people who are good at disguise, who can directly take over Li Changhui's identity and continue to trade with those people as a barbarian for several months.

After the wine was brewed, Lin He taught these people how to cut grapevines. Can grapes be cut from branches?This shocked everyone again.

Maybe this is not unbelievable, but these people led by Manager Wang obviously never care about how the grapes grow, so they are so surprised.

While everyone was pruning the branches, Lin He found Manager Wang.

"Manager Wang, tell me clearly. Will these people go their separate ways and go to other places to grow grapes?"

The point is not to grow grapes, but to make wine.

After this short period of observation, Lin He was very sure that these people did not look like servants who simply worked. They were of similar age and all had studied.Manager Wang would often talk to them about business and teach them how to treat others while making wine.

It is better to say that he is the apprentice of shopkeeper Wang than a follower who comes to work.

That's why Lin He asked this question.

Manager Wang hesitated for a moment, then nodded generously: "To be honest with Mrs. Li, the master does have this intention, and has also asked the people below to collect more grape saplings."

"Well, I guess so too."

Lin He looked at the grape branches on the ground: "I dare not say anything else, but the grapes I grow here are definitely better than what you harvest outside, even the seedlings that survive from cuttings."

Manager Wang suddenly became energetic: "What does Mrs. Li mean?"

Lin He didn't show off, and said bluntly: "If you ask someone to cut more grape branches, I will find someone to clean up an open space and plant some more seedlings. When winter comes next year, you can directly use these seedlings to transplant to other places." .”

When transplanted after winter, as long as they are well preserved, there is no need to worry about the seedlings dying during the one-month journey.

Manager Wang was overjoyed: "Okay, I'll make arrangements right now."

As he spoke, he looked around and waved to someone. The person came over quickly. Manager Wang explained this and that, and the person quickly left.

Lin He nodded secretly. No matter what they did, all of these people were very obedient. They studied everything seriously and did not complain. Only one of them worked hard.

Thinking like this, Lin He suddenly asked another question: "Steward Wang will stay in Nanzhi County forever?"

Manager Wang didn't hide anything: "It's true. The master is particularly interested in this place. She doesn't feel comfortable leaving it to others, so she asked Wang to guard it here personally."

Lin He's eyebrows twitched. She knew that Jinrong's status was unusual, but every time she heard Manager Wang refer to him as a master, she would still react and feel a little strange.

But this is someone else's business, and she has nothing to do with it.

"It turns out that Manager Wang has Jinrong's trust so much."

Lin He couldn't get used to hearing Manager Wang talk about his master. Manager Wang also felt that it was inappropriate for Lin He to call him "Jinrong".

However, both of them politely did not say it out loud, but were secretly awkward in their hearts.

Then Lin He's voice changed: "The third child in our family has always liked doing business. When he was seven or eight years old, he started to learn how to read books. Unfortunately, no one in our family knows how to do business."

Lin He's words were very straightforward. Manager Wang was a good person, how could he not hear it?

He immediately said bluntly: "If Mrs. Li doesn't mind, how about letting the young master stay with Wang for a while? To be honest with Mrs. Li, Wang is going to Guanzhou Mansion to discuss business in a few days and will stay for about a month. "

Stay for a month, travel for half a month, and go back and forth for a month and a half.

Lin He hesitated. She had never let the children out for such a long time.

But she didn't refuse in a hurry: "Then I'll go back and discuss it with them."

She had to ask Li Changhui if he could leave An'er to Manager Wang to take him out for such a long time.

As for her academic studies, she was not worried. An'er had no idea about taking the imperial examination, as long as she could read, read, and understand things.
