Chapter 120
"Don't worry, old man, we will work hard and make our Xujia Village unique!"

"Yep!"

……

The old man smiled and nodded and said: "I believe everyone can do it. Okay, everyone, please go back and rest quickly! Keep your spirits up and start work on time tomorrow. Do you understand?"

"understand!"

"understand!"

After the crowd dispersed and the Xu family returned home, Qibao said: "This wine needs to be left for two months before it can be opened. Therefore, the wine made every day must be opened separately and marked with the date so that there will be no mistakes later."

"Well, your uncle has already ordered the jars to hold the wine. When the time comes, he will mark each jar with a date, and just put the ones of the same day together." The old man thought for a while, nodded.

Qibao saw that his grandfather had an idea. In the past few days, Qibao had been teaching his family how to make wine. He also told them a few important details. The most important thing was that the fruits used to make wine should not have a drop of water on them.

The next day, the Xu family got up early. After breakfast, they came to the workshop. There were also many villagers who had arrived early and were standing at the door.

Old man Lin and Mrs. Sun also got up early. When the time was almost up, Zhang Chunxi and Li Fugui ran over panting.

Li Fugui said, "I'm sorry, uncle, it's a bit far here, so I'm a bit late!"

The old man said: "You are not late. The others are close, so they came so early."

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Old Man Lin took the big guys to the orchard and started picking fruits. He also gave each of the grape picking workers a pair of scissors, for fear that someone would accidentally tear the grape vines.

Because of the spiritual spring water, these grapes not only grow much, but are also all the same size. The fruity aroma is so strong that even the fruit pickers can't help but swallow their saliva.

The old man said: "Everyone can try it, you can't help but know how the food you make tastes."

Some people listened to the old man's words, reached out and picked one, peeled it off and ate it in their mouths.

"Yeah! It's delicious. It's much more delicious than the wild grapes from the mountains. This grape has the right amount of sourness and sweetness, and also has a lot of water!"

"Yes, the taste of wine made with such fruit will definitely not be bad!"

Although everyone liked the taste very much, they only tasted a few pieces and stopped eating it.

Qibao was very satisfied. No one in the village was greedy and they knew what was right.

After picking all the bamboo baskets I brought, I returned to the workshop and started to wash the fruits. After washing, I went to pick them again while the fruits were not dry. When I came back, the fruits I had washed earlier were basically dry. .

Next, Zhang and the others began to teach these women how to make fruit wine.

Qibao watched from the side and nodded with satisfaction. They taught very seriously and carefully, and there were no mistakes.Because most of them were women, in order to avoid suspicion, Old Man Lin handed over the warehouse to Zhang Chunxi and Li Fugui. He couldn't let the two big men work among the women. The men in their families would definitely feel uncomfortable.

There are also a few teenage boys who are responsible for doing some groceries, and then help picking fruits when they have time.

Because they are novices, they only make about four or five jars of each type of fruit wine in this day. However, Qibao is not in a hurry. Quality is the most important thing. Once they are all familiar with it, the subsequent operations will be much faster.

Zhang Chunxi and Li Fugui moved the brewed wine to the warehouse. Because they had never read books, they couldn't write at all. Old Lin planned to teach them to write the date. With just those few words, Old Lin was confident. During this period of time in the Xu family, I have learned a lot of words. These days are still very easy. I can learn them myself, but can two people younger than him learn them?
After returning to Xu's house, Ms. Zhang said: "I have to watch her every day for the past few days. I won't be relieved until I can completely let go."

Li also said: "Yeah, I don't worry about it. If I make a mistake in any step, then the bottle of wine will be useless!"

Mrs. Lin also said: "We are together, but all the family affairs fall on my mother-in-law!"

Mrs. Wang smiled and said: "Hey! What's the matter? It's not like I can't do it anymore, so don't worry! Isn't it just cooking and cleaning? It's not tiring! The things in the workshop are the most important thing."

Qibao listened to them with a smile. They were really a big family that cared about each other and understood each other. Qibao just liked this kind of family.

In the next few days, the three sisters-in-law worked in the workshop to guide the workers every day. At noon, they also ate in the canteen of the workshop. The cook was specially invited to cook by a woman in her forties from the village. , even if they cook one meal every day, they don’t need to do anything else. Although the wages are not as much as those workers who make wine, they are relatively relaxed.

Until they were able to let go completely, the three sisters-in-law stopped going to the workshop every day. The more Old Lin worked, the more he got used to it, and he even got a little immersed in it. Every day was fulfilling. Mrs. Sun also often went to the workshop to help. She finally felt that she was not a free meal of the Xu family. , she can also help her granddaughter with some things, and she is very happy in her heart. She is busy every day and enjoys it.

The weather is getting warmer day by day, the sun is shining every day, and people can already wear only a slightly thicker clothes.

Shopkeeper Tong came to Xu's house today, and Qibao was a little surprised. The old man invited people to the main room and asked, "I wonder what business shopkeeper Tong has come to do in person today?"

Shopkeeper Tong said: "We are all old acquaintances, so I won't beat around the bush. It's like this. Didn't your family make potato flour before? Our boss sent a letter. The old man in the family likes it very much, so he asked me to come and ask. Can this thing be mass-produced and then supplied to our major restaurants?”

The old man thought for a while and said: "This was originally made by our family for our own consumption. I didn't expect that Mr. Su could write a letter specifically. So, this matter is a bit sudden. Let my family discuss it and I will reply to you as soon as possible."

"Okay, let your boss inform me when the time comes. Then I won't stay any longer. It's almost noon, so I have to go back as soon as possible."

The master said: "Okay, then shopkeeper Tong, go slowly, we won't stay any longer."

After seeing off shopkeeper Tong, the family sat together, and the old man asked: "Qibao, what do you think?"

The old man said: "If we want to supply Zuixian Tower, we will definitely need a lot of people. Our family currently has no spare time to make potato flour, but we have to make money. The village is currently saturated, and even if we recruit people, we can only recruit outsiders." Village.”

"Yes, Qibao is right. Is there any other good way?"

Qibao said: "Well, the eldest uncle's and second uncle's natal families are also close to each other. Why don't we leave this to them, so that we don't need to find people from other villages, and they are also familiar with the people in their own village. I also know everyone in this village well, so I feel more at ease.”

When Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Li heard this, they were very excited and said, "Qibao, is everything you said true? Are you willing to hand over this business to our natal family?"
