Each barrel of wine contains approximately twenty liters, or about two dou (a unit of dry measure).

They sell a barrel of wine in their shop for about the same price.

Ji Zixuan didn't even blink before agreeing to the terms, agreeing to pay whatever amount was due each month, and even gave Lin Jinyue a deposit of 200 taels.

The villagers all gathered around, never expecting that they would receive the money so easily, before even giving the goods to the owner.

Twenty large silver ingots, and not even silver notes that could be worthless at any time!

Lin Jinyue smiled and said, "Perfect timing, all those plots of land have been cultivated, right? I'll transfer a few more people."

However, she began to have a problem.

The land has been cultivated, but people still need to farm it.

Jiang Yun wants to plant some medicinal herb seeds, and Lin Jinyue wants to plant some cash crops; both require manpower.

Fortunately, she didn't let herself get carried away. At least 300 barrels of wine a month would be enough, and a batch could be brewed in ten days.

There will definitely be enough time.

Five people... that should be enough, right?

Just as Lin Jinyue was worrying, her fifth uncle, Lin Man, came over.

Lin Man hesitated for a long time before speaking, "Yueyue, how about this: if we don't have enough for brewing wine, we coconut oil makers can help out?"

Lin Jinyue remembered that she had previously assigned five people to make coconut oil.

This forced all the women in the village to work in the fields.

Even the schoolboys who were still in school would finish class an hour early to help their families plant rice seedlings.

Lin Jinyue forgot to do the accounting and assumed the coconut oil business was doing well, so she asked, "Isn't the coconut oil business doing alright? Why did you stop selling it?"

Could it be that they find making coconut oil too laborious?

Lin Man then said, "Coconut oil, apart from the restaurants and snack shops in our own village, basically no one buys it."

Lin Jinyue was stunned.

What?! Coconut oil, which was so expensive in its previous life, couldn't be sold in ancient times?!
