Baskets of grapes were brought back, washed and dried, and picked out one by one. The grapes were cut off one by one with the stems, and the washed grapes were placed on the dustpan to dry. As expected, there were four more men working, and the speed was several times faster than the two or three people working on weekdays. Cao Xiangnan was worried that he would not be able to pick all the grapes in that area, but now he doesn't have to worry at all, and the smile on his face never stopped.

The bottles bought back have been washed and dried, and put in the sun to dry. The water inside must be completely dried before the wine can be put in.

When the alcohol in the jar has been completely fermented, the dregs in the wine must be filtered out and put into new containers for a second fermentation. Cao Xiangnan brought Cao Gang and Liu Baishu in to filter the wine. He scooped up a small spoonful of wine with a wine spoon, put it into a bowl and took a sip, then scooped up another spoonful for Cao Gang and Liu Baishu to taste, and asked, "How is it?"

"The wine you drank last night was brewed with these fruits." Cao Xiangnan saw Liu Baishu nod, and told him with a smile, "So the fruits we picked outside are used to brew wine."

After Cao Gang's first surprise, there was no expression on his face. Instead, he was looking forward to the more fragrant liquor that Cao Xiangnan mentioned. "It's so magical!" Liu Baishu had seen that kind of sour fruit before. If he wasn't really hungry, he would never eat that kind of sour fruit. It was sour and astringent. He didn't expect that kind of fruit to be brewed into such delicious wine.

You don't understand the reason behind this, and I don't know how to tell you, so I won't tell you. Anyway, this is how wine can be made. Cao Xiangnan raised his chin, looking like he was complimenting me, but unfortunately Cao Gang and Liu Baishu were not good at sweet talk, and he was afraid that he would be disappointed.

He led two people to filter out the finished wine first. As for how to deal with the rest, Cao Xiangnan also showed Liu Baishu how to do it. Seeing that he was interested, he told him some things to pay attention to one by one, "... like this, every day you have to open the lid to press the dregs on top, and smell the smell closely. You can smell it and see if the smell is bad. You can tell it by smelling it more." "

When these things on top have no color and there is no sweetness in the wine, it means that the wine is ready."

Liu Baishu nodded and kept all these in mind.

As for Cao Xiangnan teaching him these things, he glanced at their generals and saw that their generals nodded slightly to him, so he studied seriously.

"I filtered out two small jars of wine for the first time. You drank one jar last night. I will put this jar into small bottles and send it to Yipinzhai. I will go to the town later. You can come with me." Cao Xiangnan put the filtered wine on the jar. The color and taste will be better if it is left for a while. He plans to send some of the wine that has been stored for a while to Yipinzhai. When Yipinzhai responds, they can start to sell the wine here.

Now Cao Gang's house is built. He plans to build a school. He has to go to Master Feng again. The factory is almost built. The school will start first. When there are more people, they can be assigned to build the school. Try to finish it before winter. The rest of the work can only wait until next year.

"Let's go, let's go eat first, and come back to deal with these things later." Cao Xiangnan said.

At noon, everyone stopped what they were doing and went to have lunch.

At this time, the brothers who were making clothes in the back also came to eat. The eyes of the group of brothers kept secretly looking at the few more men in Cao Silang's place. Wang Dahu let people look at him carelessly. Anyway, he had a wife, so he would not be interested in these brothers.

"Mom, Mom..."

The children of several families each found their own mother and ate the food in the bowl obediently. Now that life is better, the children have changed the most. It can be clearly found that the children of several families have become whiter, fatter, and taller. The happiest people are the mothers who have discovered these changes in their children.

After lunch, everyone rested for a while.

After the children washed their hands and faces, they went to bed by themselves. The noises of playing inside soon stopped.

"Wanfeng, sit on the bed. I'll try on your new shoes to see if they fit you." Back in the room, Cao Xiangnan put the shoes he bought in town on Qi Wanfeng and found that they fit him perfectly. Qi Wanfeng looked at her happy husband, her eyes full of tenderness as she smiled, and said, "Thank you, husband."

Now Qi Wanfeng's whole body is slowly swelling, and her instep is one size larger than before, so her old shoes don't fit anymore.

"But thanking you is too unrealistic. I want something more practical." Cao Xiangnan smiled wickedly.

Qi Wanfeng glared at his husband, and when his husband leaned his face over, he still smiled helplessly and leaned over to kiss his husband. When Qi Wanfeng's lips were about to fall on his face, Cao Xiangnan suddenly turned his head, and their lips were facing each other.

When he was about to leave, Cao Xiangnan quickly reached out and hugged Qi Wanfeng's waist, and did not let him escape, but deepened the kiss. The tongue invaded each other's mouth, chasing his small tongue, and the two tongues were entangled together, and it was hard to tell whose was whose.

Now the two of them had a rare time to be alone, and Cao Xiangnan seized this time to tease his wife. Except for sleeping, when he can be alone with his wife, the rest of the time he is surrounded by a bunch of light bulbs, and he can't even touch his wife's hand.

Even Cao Xiangnan himself doesn't know why, he is more and more eager to touch this person.

After coaxing the person to sleep, looking at the person sleeping soundly on the bed, without any worries between his brows, Cao Xiangnan reached out and touched the person's brows, and couldn't help but kissed it, and then he came out of the room.

The children in the room fell asleep, and the house suddenly became quiet.

The sun was high in the sky, and they had to hurry to deal with the grapes that had been dried, because they had to continue picking grapes in the afternoon. Cao Xiangnan led them to process the grapes. Liu Baishu and Gan Weiqi were the most serious among the group, but Liu Baishu was more interested. He was very relieved because at least he had someone who could really help him.

Cao Gang would usually help with these things, but he was more interested in drinking and not so interested in making wine.

The crushed grapes were mixed with sugar in proportion and then put into the jar, waiting for the alcohol to ferment and slowly brew into wine.

The bottles drying in the sun dried up quickly. After Cao Xiangnan put the wine in, he wanted to send the wine to Yipinzhai. "Bai Lian, if Wanfeng wakes up and asks me, just say I went to the town."

"Okay." Sun Bailian nodded. He got up late today and was not sleepy at noon, nor did he go to rest.

The carriage went to the town. Cao Xiangnan took Liu Baishu with him. On the way, he told him some things so that he could have a general idea in his mind.

"Brother, didn't I say I would bring you something good a few days ago? I brought it to you today." When they arrived at Yipinzhai and saw the storekeeper Liu, Cao Xiangnan picked up a bottle, opened the lid, handed it to the storekeeper Liu, raised his chin to him, and said, "Smell it and see how it tastes."

"Oh, but what good things did you bring to this old brother of mine?" Shopkeeper Liu was curious. He had rarely seen Cao Xiangnan recently. He knew he was busy and kept it a secret. Now he still remembered him. He sent the things over. After receiving the bottle, he first looked at the bottle, put it to his nose and smelled it, then smiled and said, "Well, it is indeed a good thing."

Shopkeeper Liu never thought that Cao Xiangnan would send wine. He made a gesture and said, "Let's go upstairs to talk." "Brother, let me introduce you to a new partner, Liu Baishu." Cao Xiangnan introduced the two of them, "Baishu, this is Shopkeeper Liu." Liu Baishu clasped his fists to Shopkeeper Liu.

"Well, he's a good boy." Shopkeeper Liu knew that Cao Xiangnan brought him here for him to meet. Shopkeeper Liu also knew some of the people in Cao Xiangnan's place. He knew that Sun Ji had taken some boys to Nanyang.

Shopkeeper Liu looked at the boy brought by Cao Xiangnan. He had been reading people for half a lifetime and was very accurate in judging people. He could tell that the boy had a different temperament. He just didn't know where Cao had found this guy. He was a little polite to him.

"Sit down, sit down." Several people went upstairs to the private room. The waiter behind them served them snacks and tea. Shopkeeper Liu asked the two to sit down.

"Baishu, sit down." Cao Xiangnan motioned for Liu Baishu to sit down and said, "Have a cup of tea and some snacks. These are all made by the chef of Yipinzhai. Try them."

Liu Baishu sat down. Even his plain clothes could not hide his unusual demeanor. He pinned the fan he usually held in his hand to his waist, but he never left it easily. Even now that he had left the border, he was still used to carrying it with him.

"Hmm, this taste, this taste, good, good, good." The red wine was poured out, clear and clean, and the smell was floating out. When he smelled this smell, Manager Liu knew it was good stuff. He shook his finger and looked at Cao Xiangnan, saying, "So you have been missing recently because you are messing with this stuff."

Cao Xiangnan handed the wine to Manager Liu, smiled and said, "Try it."

Looking at Manager Liu's look, he was 90% sure that this wine would sell well. He was not worried that these wines would not be sold. After these wines were brewed, he planned to make white wine. The fragrant and spicy white wine in the winter would be more popular.

The shopkeeper Liu took the wine, took a sip, tasted it slowly, and then took a second sip. He slowly closed his eyes, took a breath, opened his eyes, his eyes sparkled, and said, "It's a good wine."
