Chapter 13 Winemaking
"Youfa, have you eaten? Let's eat together." Grandpa Li greeted his nephew.
"Uncle, I've already eaten at home. You eat yours and don't worry about me. I came here to ask Xuezhu something!" Luo Youfa replied.
Li Xuezhu asked curiously, "What's the matter? Is it about building a farm?"
"Yes, that's what I want to ask for your opinion. Is it appropriate for our village to do the same?"
As the village party secretary, Luo Youfa dreams of leading the villagers to become rich and live a well-off life.
Li Xuezhu pondered for a moment before speaking, "City dwellers are under immense pressure and live at a fast pace these days. Our village boasts mountains and rivers, beautiful scenery, and abundant natural resources. Visitors can hike the Daqing Mountains, fish by the river, pick fruits in the orchard, enjoy farm-style meals, and drink mountain spring water to relax and de-stress."
But I don't recommend that the villagers join me now. I'm not sure myself. I'll wait until there's more customers and then we can join in." Li Xuezhu thought that since he had a spiritual spring at home, he would definitely not lose money.
I’m afraid that the villagers will invest their life savings and lose it later.
If you wait until your own family members have gained fame and traffic, and then follow suit, you won’t lose money, right?
Luo Youfa understood what his cousin meant, but he disagreed. If you want to make money, don't be afraid of losing it.
He also expressed his own thoughts: "My real idea is that our village has a good geographical location. We can develop Daqing Mountain into a scenic spot and make it a tourist destination, and then have our B&Bs at the foot of the mountain provide logistical support. However, it would require too much money and is not realistic."
"It's not unrealistic. We can build a few more artificial waterfalls and put various fish and shrimps in the streams formed by mountain spring water for tourists to play in the water and catch them. We can also plant various wild or domestic edible fungi, various wild vegetables and wild fruits. We can also let tourists pick medicinal herbs that can be soaked in water, such as wild chrysanthemum, honeysuckle, wolfberry...but in limited quantities. It will be both wild and relaxing. The Daqing Mountain is not too steep, but gentle, which is suitable for tourists to walk all the way. We only need to build some small pavilions along the way for rest, and it will not damage the original vegetation. The investment should not be too big, right?" Guo'er was also brave enough to express her opinion.
"The villagers in our village are contributing money. Doesn't the government support this? We can also subsidize part of it. But the prerequisite for everything is that my family's farm is established first. Only when there is a flow of people can we convince the villagers to invest and apply for subsidies. Even if they are unwilling, we have the confidence to attract investment."
However, this was just a beautiful idea of hers, but it was difficult to implement.
Luo Youfa nodded: "Good idea, I think it would be best if the village invested on its own."
After talking for a while, Luo Youfa felt that it was too early to say anything now, so he said goodbye and went back.
After closing the doors and windows of her house, she brought her family into the space.
Several people went to take a hot spring bath, and Guoer also brought cherries, strawberries, grapes, and oranges for them to eat while taking a bath.
After soaking in the hot spring, Grandpa Li went to the library to learn medical skills.
Li Guoer and the other three made kimchi, pickles, and pickled vegetables from the vegetables in the space. They also brewed wine, plum wine, apple wine, and bayberry wine.
He also brewed Hundred Flower Wine and Hundred Fruit Wine according to the recipe in the space.
Spiritual spring water is added to it, and most of the ingredients are produced in the space, so the taste must be good.
"Dad, remember to bring me the beehives I bought tomorrow. The courier sent me a message this afternoon. Oh, and remember to go to the winery and buy a few hundred kilograms of liquor. The herbs are almost grown, and I want to make some health-promoting liquor."
The elders of the Li family usually like to have a drink, and brewing some health-preserving wine is better for the body.
He sent a few people to the practice room to practice health-preserving exercises, while he went into the workshop to continue practicing acupuncture and medicine making.
