Chapter 232: Wine Brewing 1

readx;

Of course, the ancients may not be able to adapt to this way of living in groups, and when the economic ability is on the ladder, coupled with the spread of branches and leaves, and the increase of heirs, they will naturally choose a house with a single courtyard, and the two different house structures are well connected to meet the needs of different echelons of people.

Wu Mingjin didn't know the original intention of Xia Nan to design this way of buying a house. After he finished reading, he asked, "What does this mean?" ”

A well-informed craftsman told him that it was to pay a sum of silver first, like a fixed payment, and then the house would be yours, and 5 taels of silver would buy a house for 5o taels.

After listening to the full content of the notice, everyone began to discuss. According to the income of the craftsmen, those with good craftsmanship and high ratings can have a fixed income of more than ten taels of silver a year, plus some incentives, there are many people who earn twenty or thirty taels or even fifty taels a year. But they all need to support their families, and they still have wives and children at home, so it is impossible to buy a house without eating or drinking for a few years.

But the temptation of this installment payment method is too great, 5 taels of silver, save a little money, and it will be made up in a few months, and as long as a few hundred Wen is paid every month in the future, this price is completely affordable.

A craftsman was obviously moved: "If you want me to say, you can buy a house for 5 taels of silver, I think it is." With a house, I can bring my father, wife and son to Lingao, and I can do my filial piety for my father and mother, and I can see my wife and children every day......"

"You fool, you don't go back to Guangdong, do you have to stay in Lingao for the rest of your life? I think I'd better save money to go back to Guangdong......"

"You're a fool, no matter how good Guangdong is, what's the matter with you? Can you afford a house in a good location on the street in Guangzhou? If you are in the countryside, where is it stronger than Lingao? I think Lingao is good, you see that the owner has demolished and rebuilt the county, what a big deal. This Lingao will never be worse than the countryside of Guangzhou in the future, right? ”

Someone hesitated slightly: "But even the city wall of the county town has been demolished, will the government punish the crime?" When the owner falls, will we still be able to count the houses we bought? ”

"You know the! What's wrong with the government. The walls of Lingao have been demolished, does the county lord dare to stand up and fart? The prefect sent thousands of troops to fight to Lingao, and they haven't been beaten yet......"

Wu Mingjin's face swelled like a pig's liver, he wanted to refute but couldn't open his mouth, he wanted to shout, Lingao County is here, the traitor against the imperial court, there will be a day when he will be liquidated! But thinking about his situation, he still held back. Besides, standing up at this time, wouldn't he become the "county master who stood up and farted" in that mouth?

The old man was worried: "Is this considered a rebellion by the owner?" Will it affect us? ”

Someone mysteriously played with the gossip: "You don't have to worry, I heard that the owner is ready to accept the government's recruitment, but the price has not been negotiated, and then he will have the identity of the official family, and the purchase and sale of this house will naturally count." ”

Everyone was reassured and said, "That's fine." ”

Someone began to play the idea of a big house: "Anyway, you don't have to pay it all at once, it's better to borrow some money, make up enough 3o taels, buy a single house, pay less than one tael of silver per month, grit your teeth, it's not that you can't afford to carry it......"

Someone chimed in: "Yes, it's a good thing that is half sold and half given, so just buy a big one." If it is Guangdong, where to find such a deal, the pawn house is cheaper, but it is not his own house after all, and the owner can still redeem it and buy it back, and it is not practical to live. ”

Wu Mingjin couldn't help but speak: "You ignorant people, what is this called half-selling and half-giving, obviously there is not a penny less, but the time limit for receiving money is relaxed......"

The craftsmen were not happy, and they choked him one after another: "What do you know, a house of 5 taels of silver, isn't it half sold and half given?" The owner doesn't do all good deeds, as long as he gives a few hundred wen a month, it's already merciful enough, what else do you want? ”

"Look at your literacy and hyphenation, you are a reader, otherwise with your words, Lao Tzu will smoke you to believe it or not!"

Wu Mingjin was so angry that he didn't want to argue with them, so he lost his identity and dropped a sentence, "It's really a summer worm that can't talk about ice!" Walk away.

Xia Nan didn't know about Wu Da County's "micro-service private visit" to observe the people's feelings, and after he accepted Lin Weiye's proposal, he began to prepare to build a winery.

The master of soju is not like an iron-making craftsman, he must go to Guangzhou City to find it, and Fucheng has it, but the craftsmanship is not as good as that of the provincial capital. Lin Weiye doesn't care about this, as long as he can make soju, he is only responsible for ordering the key processes.

According to the planning of Xia Nan, the east side is an industrial area from the South Park and the textile factory, along the Wenlan River to the Bofu area, so the newly built winery will naturally be built in this area. In order to distinguish itself from heavy industries such as steel mills and to prevent heavy metal pollution, the distillery was located upstream of the steel mill and arsenal, adjacent to the textile mill.

In today's world of the Ming Dynasty, the wine trade is not as good as a year, and there are only two wineries in the city, one is barely operating, and the other is on the verge of bankruptcy. In the summer, Nan did not lack this bit of silver, so he bought all the two wineries, and packed and transported them to Lingao.

Dozens of masters and apprentices in winemaking know nothing but this craft, and there is no land to plant at home, so they are naturally happy to find a new owner to continue their old business. Under the guidance of the oldest masters of the two distilleries, one surnamed Tian and the other surnamed Yuan, they knew the structure and wine-making process of the distillery well, and under their guidance, Tan Er led the construction team to settle in and start building a new distillery.

Since it is a winery, it must not copy the small pattern of the winery. Except for the distilled sake retort barrels, which are used to store liquor, the rest of the warehouses and other buildings where the liquor and raw materials are stored are built according to the standards of the factory, and they are tall and spacious.

Sorghum as a raw material is only coarse grain, which is available in both the north and the south, and is not valuable, and it is not worth much, and hundreds of stones were collected soon. Master Tian and Master Yuan looked at the mountains of sorghum and glanced at each other, worried. Master Tian said to Lin Weiye, who commanded the stacking of sorghum: "Boss, we looked at the newly dug well, the water quality is very good, if you use rice and wheat, you can make good wine, but using sorghum wastes this good water, and the wine made from sorghum cannot be sold at a high price...... He did not explicitly say that the wine made from coarse grains is for the poor to drink, and it cannot be sold for a few copper plates.

Lin Weiye asked rhetorically: "How profitable is it to make wine with rice and wheat?" ”

Master Tian was speechless. Although the price of making wine with rice and other rations is high, the price of rice and other rations is high, but because the price of rice is too expensive, the cost is also high, and the profit is naturally low. He and Master Yuan can only brew ordinary wine, there is no ancestral secret method, they can't make any fine wine, and they are not competitive, so the winery where they are located will naturally not be able to operate.

To be continued.
