Chapter 23 Wine Cellaring

The gong chips are staggered, and the cups are replaced.

The wine enters the heart of sorrow, and I will be drunk tonight.

A few people ate for more than two hours.After paying the bill, the three Liu Xiaoming brothers were drunk and naive.

Walking out of the gate of Ye Mingzhu, a gust of cold wind hits.The drowsy Liu Xiaoming was blown by the cold wind, and his chaotic brain became a little clearer.Touching his swollen stomach, Liu Xiaoming smiled wryly, drinking beer made his stomach bloated the most.

"Xiao Ming, don't go home tonight, just stay in the town for one night. After all, you drank so much, it's really not safe to drive."

Cousin Liu Jing looked at Liu Xiaoming worriedly, and persuaded him softly.At this time, Zhou Bo also started to persuade.

"Yes, Xiao Ming. I will open a room for you tonight, and you will stay in the town for one night."

Liu Xiaoming thought about it, but still refused.

"Forget it, there are still so many pigs at home, so I don't feel at ease if I don't go home. I'll drive slower."

Seeing that he insisted, the few people were not trying to persuade him.

"Cousin, brother Bing, cousin, and cousin, then I'm leaving."

After speaking, Liu Xiaoming got on the Jialing motorcycle.

"Okay, be careful."

"Slow down."

"Okay, don't worry."

After speaking, he started the machine and left.At night, the night is hazy, but the moonlight has long since disappeared.On the road home, the darkness was as mysterious as a black hole in the universe.The big trees on both sides are dense, and the dim lights of motorcycles are shining.

"Oh, no, it's better to drink less beer."

Liu Xiaoming stopped his motorcycle and came to the side of the road to unzip his jeans.

"Crash clatter clatter."

"Oh, it's cool. I think I wet my shoes with the wind in the past, but now I urinate against the wind." Inexplicably, Liu Xiaoming sighed like this.

In the early morning, the golden sunlight shines through the cracks in the window and ripples on Liu Xiaoming's quiet face.

"Jingle bell jingle bell."

A rapid alarm sounded, and Liu Xiaoming, who was sleeping comfortably, suddenly opened his eyes.

"Oh, I overslept, those little things didn't rebel, did they?"

After speaking, he quickly dressed and got up.When I came to the ingredients room, I weighed two hundred catties of feed and poured it into the automatic mixer.After being busy for a while, Liu Xiaoming seemed to have thought of something, and hurriedly sterilized himself and came to the pigsty.

As soon as he entered, he walked directly to the innermost pigsty.I saw a piggy alone inside, and it was wandering leisurely inside at the moment.

"Hey, this guy looks refreshed, and the bright red color on his body has disappeared, and he looks better. However, to be on the safe side, it's better to separate him for a day, and lock him back in the afternoon when he has nothing to do."

After saying that, Liu Xiaoming left the pigpen.At this time, when these piggies saw Liu Xiaoming coming in, they thought they had something to eat, so they hurriedly screamed loudly.Suddenly, the screams of hundreds of pigs merged into one.The pig's cry that pierced the sky almost made Liu Xiaoming collapse.

"Oh my god, the second senior brother can't afford to offend him. This cry is too terrifying."

After speaking, Liu Xiaoming hurriedly escaped from the pigsty.Back in the ingredient room, seeing that the corn in the mixer had turned into powder, Liu Xiaoming hurriedly poured the insecticide prepared in advance into it.Immediately, a smell of traditional Chinese medicine came to my nostrils.After a while, Liu Xiaoming opened the valve, and the feed flowed down.

"Hey, why is it darker than before? Is it because of the insecticide?"

Seeing this, Liu Xiaoming didn't pay too much attention, and entered the disinfection room with a small cart.

"Stop barking, dinner is here, brothers."

As he spoke, Liu Xiaoming hurriedly poured the feed from the cart into the pig trough.

"Hey, what's the matter, why don't you like to eat?"

I saw that all the pigs were unwilling to eat after taking two bites.Liu Xiaoming was worried that he might be sick.He quickly took out his cell phone from his pocket and found Boss Ran's number and dialed it.

"Hey, Uncle Ran, what's going on? Why don't you eat?"

"Xiao Ming, did you add insect repellant to it?"

"Yeah, didn't you say you're going to kill worms!"

Hearing this, Boss Ran on the other side of the phone breathed a sigh of relief, and said loudly: "It's okay, you don't have to worry. This insecticide is bitter, and it's normal for them not to like it, even humans don't like to suffer! !!"

"Oh!"

Hearing this, Liu Xiaoming breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's fine, please."

"It's okay, then I'll hang up."

"Okay, you are busy."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Xiaoming looked at the group of cute piggies in the pigsty with a smile.

"Hey, you guys still know it's not delicious, but you're still picky eaters."

After saying that, Liu Xiaoming ignored them, cleaned the pig pen and left.

"Hey, Uncle Gao, where are you going?"

As soon as Liu Xiaoming came out, he saw Gao Changfu passing by the door with a white flagon in his hand.

"Hey, Xiao Liu, have you finished feeding the pigs?"

"After feeding, you are going to go there with a pot."

Hearing this, Gao Changfu took a look at the flagon and said, "Hey, I've run out of wine at home, and I'm going to go to Yuan Kui's house to fetch a few catties for home."

Seeing this, Liu Xiaoming was surprised, not knowing what to do with such a jug when buying wine.

"Then what are you doing with a pot? It's better to buy it directly, it's all packed."

Hearing this, Gao Changfu smiled and said, "Haha, I don't want to buy those bottled blended wines."

Liu Xiaoming was even more puzzled. "Then you are?"

"Hahaha, you kid don't understand. What we country people drink is loose wine, which is brewed from corn. It has a mellow taste and won't give you a headache."

"Corn wine?"

"That's right, the price of this wine is not expensive, only five yuan a catty."

When Liu Xiaoming heard this, he was very interested.He casually took out the cigarettes from his pocket and pulled Gao Changfu into the room to sit down.

"Uncle Gao, tell me about this loose wine carefully, I'm quite interested."

Gao Changfu took the cigarette that Liu Xiaoming handed over, but casually pinned it to his ear.

"This corn wine is made from corn. The average brewer can make two catties of corn for one catty of wine, and a hundred catties of better corn can produce sixty catties of wine. The price is not expensive and the taste is very good, so the average rural People buy this kind of wine to drink. As for the bottled wine you drink, it is all blended with alcohol, and after drinking it, you get a bad headache, and some people died of drinking it a few years ago."

"What? No way, drinking to death?"

Gao Changfu saw Liu Xiaoming's face full of disbelief and said unhappily: "Don't believe it, kid. He is in Zhoujiawan next door to us. This man's name is Zhou Yuchun, and he is famous for drinking. Just two years ago, he drank He died in his own home, and he was alone and no one found him. When he was finally found, his head was half eaten by his dog. In the end, people from the police station came over and after that, they finally determined that it was alcohol poisoning. dead."

When Liu Xiaoming heard this, he also deeply hated those who did such immoral things for profiteering.

"Didn't you go to the person who sold him wine?"

"No matter how hard you look, no one is looking for him. He is an old man with no children and no relatives. Well, let's not talk, I'm going to drink."

After speaking, Gao Changfu left Liu Xiaoming's pig farm.Looking at Gao Changfu's leaving figure, Liu Xiaoming's face showed deep thought.

"I vaguely remember that in 50, cellar wine appeared in our hometown, and it seemed to be very expensive. I remember that it was also corn wine, which was sold for [-] yuan per catty. It seemed that it was only three dollars if it was hidden in a cave. years."

The reason why Liu Xiaoming knew about this was because the cellar wine was very famous and had already been exported abroad.It is said that at that time, a five-jin pottery jar cost 300 yuan.

"Here, can I try to get some wine in the cellar? I can build a winery by myself. The place to store wine is ready-made. The Yahong Cave next to it is a natural cellar, and the temperature inside is only seven or eight degrees all year round. , and it is like this all the year round. However, for the time being, let’s forget it, there is no capital, let’s see if it can be done in the second half of this year.”
