Siheyuan: The Idiot in Charge

Chapter 508 Telegram

"Hey! That, this."

Old Chen was grinning foolishly, his face was already a little red due to drinking, and now it was even redder.

Do you still need to ask this question?

Of course I do! Lao Chen is a wine lover.

If I drink half a pound of wine every day, that would be a very easy life!

I wouldn’t change it even for a god!

But he didn't dare say these words now, he was really afraid of being criticized.

"Old Chen! I'm planning to build a wine-making workshop for our farm, but I'm in need of a master craftsman. Would you like to do the job? As long as we get the wine-making workshop up and running, you can drink as much wine as you want, all you want!"

Old Chen's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Really?"

Jia Weidong glared at him and said, "I am a supervisor, why would I joke with you about this? Do you have nothing better to do?"

Old Chen smiled and said with a shameless face: "That's impossible!"

"That's it! Just tell me whether you will do it or not."

"Go ahead! Just wait and see, I promise to brew you wine that tastes even better than this!" Old Cheng pointed at the wine on the table and patted his chest as he promised.

Jia Weidong nodded and said, "Yes! As long as the wine you brew is no worse than this wine, it will be fine! Then, not only can you drink as much wine as you want, but you will also receive a subsidy every month."

"."

Lao Cheng is the wine-making master, and he doesn't have to do the work himself, so he doesn't have to worry about cooking in the cafeteria, and he doesn't have to be paid extra.

At most, give him a little subsidy every month.

Cost-effective!

The winemaking master has been decided.

After cooking in the cafeteria, Lao Chen has nothing to do.

Jia Weidong took advantage of his free time to discuss planning for the wine-making workshop with him.

The first step is to choose the location of the cellar.

To brew wine in large quantities, it is impossible to use small ceramic jars like Lao Cheng did. You must dig a cellar.

The location of the cellar is very important.

The temperature in the capital is relatively low in winter, which is not conducive to fermentation, so the cellars have to be built indoors.

The second is equipment.

Grain needs to be crushed, so a crusher is needed.

After the grain is fermented, it needs to be distilled. You can't just use a small stove in the kitchen to steam it slowly, right?

Finally, the ingredients.

It is true that there is food in the farm’s warehouse, but it is all wheat, rice and corn.

It is impossible to use these precious grains directly to make wine.

The surplus grain in the warehouse needs to be replaced with sorghum.

Sorghum and rice husks need to be crushed in a certain proportion and then fermented.

There is no need to worry about the issue of manpower. The farm has no shortage of capable workers.

In the midst of busyness, time passed quickly and it was already the 28th day of the first lunar month.

Today is the day when Huaer gets married.

Early in the morning, a small truck arrived at the gate of the slum where Lao Zhang's family lived.

Zhang Jinsong, wearing new clothes, politely handed cigarettes to Du Bin, and then busied himself with making a big red flower on the front bumper of the pickup truck.

Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that this small truck is the wedding car used for today's wedding.

These days, getting married on a bicycle is already quite prestigious.

Being able to get married in a car is something that most families would not even dare to think about.

Who made Zhang Jinsong have to deal with a brother-in-law who is the farm manager?

If you want to borrow a car, it's just a matter of words.

If it weren't for the fact that it wasn't a good time to hold a grand celebration or something too ostentatious, it would have been no problem for Zhang Jinsong to borrow two cars.

After everything was ready, the pickup truck set off straight for Niufang Village.

Around 11 o'clock, the pickup truck picked up the bride and her dowry and returned to the gate of the slum. The sound of firecrackers popped throughout the street.

"Hey! The bride of the Zhang family has been brought back."

"Go and have a look, Zhang's son has returned with his wife."

"Let's go! I heard that the Zhang family gave a 500 yuan gift. Let's see what the bride's family gave."

Neighbors, relatives, and those who were on good terms with the couple all ran out of the yard to watch the fun.

At this time, Zhang Jinsong was directing a group of people to unload the truck with a smile on his face, and the dowry of the old Jia family was also carried down from the back of the truck one by one.

"Look! A brand new car! A Phoenix brand!"

"Ouch! Sewing machine!"

"Wow! There's a radio!"

"Although I didn't see the watch, judging from the situation, he should have accompanied all three turns and one response."

"Yes! Look! It's in Xiaosong's hand!"

"Look! There are wedding quilts! One, two, three."

"Tsk tsk tsk! No wonder she asked for 500 yuan as a betrothal gift. Look at the dowry she gave you. You can't buy that with 1000 yuan!"

"Yes! Yes! The Zhang family is so generous!"

"If it were my family, we would also be willing to pay 500 yuan for the betrothal gift!"

"You are a bad person, but you want to be beautiful! The girl has a job, and we don't need to pay a penny as a dowry. The Zhang family will not suffer any loss. Humph! If it were my family, we would pay 800. No! My family is willing to pay 1000."

"Bah! Can your family afford 1000!"

"The Zhang family is so lucky!"

The neighbors are so envious!

Whether the sons in the family are married or not, envy is written all over their faces.

When Mr. Zhang saw the dowries, he couldn't help rubbing his eyes.

This! This is not right!

A few days ago, the brat went home and said that the Jia family seemed unwilling to give him even a penny of dowry?

"Hehe! My in-laws are really interesting!" Zhang's father laughed inwardly, then stepped forward to help happily: "Hey, you! Be gentle, don't break my wife's sewing machine!"

The other members of Old Zhang's family were also confused.

The dowry from the new bride's family was so generous that it exceeded their imagination!

The three turns and one ring should have been prepared by the man’s family.

The Zhang family emptied their savings just to raise the 500 yuan dowry, but still got nothing.

Now they are all accompanied at once.

After being surprised, everyone smiled brightly.

Mother Zhang also greeted them joyfully and happily welcomed the new daughter-in-law into the house.

The Zhang family had previously scraped together the 500 yuan dowry that the Jia family demanded, so it was impossible for them to say that they had no resentment at all.

Now after seeing these dowries, the family no longer has any resentment.

I married a daughter-in-law who has a job and she also has so much dowry. Is 500 yuan too much for a bride price?

Not much at all!

No! It was the Zhang family that made a fortune!

With Jia Weidong's intervention, Hua'er finally got married in style without bringing shame to the Jia family.

Hua'er will feel more confident living in the Zhang family from now on. She can stand up straight and no longer has to worry about being looked down upon or bullied by her in-laws.

Regarding the matter of Huaer's dowry, Jia Weidong simply told the eldest brother his thoughts, and then sent the eldest brother back home to supervise the matter.

His main focus is still on the winemaking workshop at Red Star Farm.

Even though it’s just a small wine-making workshop, there are actually a lot of things to do, big and small.

By the time the workshop was completed and the first batch of wine was brewed, it was already June.

In the first trial production, only 1000 kilograms of sorghum were fermented.

After Jia Weidong tasted the newly brewed wine, he felt it was okay.

Old Chen really didn't overdo it. The newly brewed wine is really no worse than the wine he brewed privately.

After verbally praising Lao Chen, Jia Weidong gave a bottle to Li Huaide for tasting, and received Li Huaide's affirmation.

The wine-making workshop has successfully completed its trial production and is now officially on track.

Jia Weidong finally breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, "Can I now live a peaceful life for a few days?"

Who would have thought that just after he had finished dinner, He Yushui took out a telegram from his bag and said to him, "Boss! Your telegram!"

Jia Weidong: "."
