"Girl, do you have any other plans hidden?"
Ye Guozhu looked at Ye Liuqing with fiery eyes.
Ye Liuqing paused.
"Village Chief, how did you know?"
"Didn't you go up the mountain today?"
Ye Guozhu smiled a little embarrassedly.
"Did Sister Sufen tell you?"
Ye Liuqing’s guesses were always correct.
"Yes! You picked so many sour wild grapes and brought them back. I don't believe you don't have any ideas."
Ye Guozhu had already seen the wild grapes piled in the corner.
"Besides, the place where these wild grapes grow is on the back of the mountain. It takes a lot of effort to get to it."
Ye Liuqing was convinced.
As the saying goes, old ginger is still spicy.
There is some truth to this.
The village chief is really an old fox. He saw through her at once.
This kind of grape matter really needs to be done in advance, and it requires the support of the village chief.
Therefore, Ye Liuqing felt that it was better to do it today than to wait for another day, so he simply told the village chief today.
"The last time we delivered preserved fruit to the town commune, we met Quan Bin from Quanjia Village. He said something that really inspired me."
"He said that our Yejia Village could grow some crops or fruits like sorghum, corn, and grapes on the mountain."
“I immediately thought of grapes.”
Ye Guozhu nodded.
"You can grow grapes, but they're sour! What can you do with them?"
"No, Uncle Village Chief, these grapes are treasures."
"I once read in a book that there's a kind of wine abroad called grape wine, which is made from grapes."
"That book describes how to brew it. I was thinking of trying it myself first."
Ye Guozhu stood up from his chair excitedly.
"Qing girl, are you serious?"
"Can you really brew that foreign stuff?"
"wine."
Ye Liuqing added very considerately.
"Yes, yes, wine."
Ye Guozhu was so excited that his body was shaking a little.
"I have to try it first."
Ye Liuqing didn't say too much.
One of her life creeds is to keep three points in mind when being a person and seven points in words.
Even if you are 100% confident about something, you will never guarantee it until you figure it out.
"Try it. Tell me what you need and I'll get it for you." Ye Guozhu knew how delicious this wine was.
If they could really produce that foreign liquor, then their Yejia Village would definitely become famous.
Maybe, Ye Guozhu will also become famous and become the most outstanding village chief in the history of Yejia Village.
Ye Guozhu is not a village chief who has never seen the world.
His eldest son works in Nanhuai City.
Ye Guozhu has been to Nanhuai City.
He had seen this foreign liquor on the counter when his eldest son took him to a department store.
Oh my god, that’s too expensive.
The cheapest bottle costs more than ten yuan.
If Qing Yatou can really make that wine, it will rain money on Yejia Village!
Ye Guozhu was so excited that his old face turned red.
As for whether the town commune would allow him to do it, whether he would allow him to sell it, and how to sell it, Ye Guozhu didn't consider it at all.
Anyway, there will always be a way in the end.
Ye Liuqing saw that Ye Guozhu was so enthusiastic, but he was not polite at all.
"Uncle Village Chief, I have to go to the county tomorrow, so I really don't have enough time to prepare some things for making wine."
"Help me prepare it."
As soon as Ye Liuqing finished speaking, Ye Guozhu immediately nodded in agreement.
This time, Ye Liuqing was not going to make the home-made wine by fermenting grapes with rock sugar and high-proof liquor.
If she doesn't want to brew, she won't brew. If she does, she will brew on a large scale.
Ye Liuqing’s previous research on wine was not in vain.
"Uncle Zhang, do you know oak trees?" Ye Liuqing asked.
"I know, we have it on the mountain." Ye Guozhu knew this.
"Okay, then you ask someone to help me cut down an oak tree, and then use the oak wood to make a few wooden barrels. It would be better to make more, and the kind with lids." Ye Liuqing pondered for a moment and began to gesture.
"It should be about the same size as this."
Ye Guozhu listened very carefully and watched very carefully.
"Qing girl, find me a pen and a piece of paper so I can write it down."
For fear of making mistakes, Ye Guozhu thought it would be better to write it down with paper and pen.
"good."
Ye Liuqing turned and went into the room, bringing paper and pen to Ye Guozhu.
Ye Guozhu confirmed with Ye Liuqing several times before taking notes.
That cautious look made Ye Liuqing start to take it seriously.
"These oak barrels are used to store red wine, so they must be well made, leak-proof, and airtight."
Ye Guozhu nodded.
He knew who in the village could do this job.
"We also need to prepare some clean gauze, clean sand, and newspapers..."
Ye Liuqing told them everything they needed.
Some things that do not exist now can only be replaced by other things.
Ye Guozhu remembered it very carefully.
"Qing girl, is there anything else?"
"there is none left."
These are all Ye Liuqing needs.
"Other things are relatively easy to deal with, but this oak barrel is not so difficult to deal with."
Ye Guozhu nodded.
It does take some time to make this oak barrel.
"I asked people to work as fast as possible."
"Um."
Ye Liuqing could actually put these wild grapes into the space to keep them fresh.
After the oak barrel is made, we can use it to make wine.
Ye Guozhu carefully folded the paper and put it in his pocket.
It looked like some precious treasure.
After releasing it, Ye Guozhu patted his pocket in dismay.
This is the hope of their Yejia Village, and they cannot lose it no matter what.
"Qing girl, I'll find someone to do it right now and try to make this oak barrel as soon as possible."
"Uncle Village Chief, it's quite late now. Go back and rest first, and we can do it tomorrow."
Ye Liuqing looked at the sky and it was really late.
Ye Guozhu waved his hand.
"It's okay. Old people don't sleep as much."
"Since it's on my way, I'll just go and say a few words."
"Let them go and chop down the trees early tomorrow morning."
Seeing Ye Guozhu's insistence, Ye Liuqing stopped talking.
"Remember to come to my house tomorrow to get a letter of introduction." Ye Guozhu said before leaving.
"Okay, Uncle Village Chief." Ye Liuqing nodded.
Ye Guozhu waved to Ye Liuqing and left.
The speed of his feet was very fast.
It was pitch black all around, and Ye Liuqing was afraid that Ye Guozhu would fall if he walked too fast.
What an anxious old man.
