The Local Lazy Man System

Chapter 399: Hercules Ye Glory

"Well, it's delicious..."

Liu Qingqing nodded and said with a mouthful of glutinous rice. Liu Qingqing will not eat glutinous rice for the first time, but the glutinous rice that he eats before is always with other ingredients.

Unlike the current bowl of glutinous rice, nothing has been added, it is pure glutinous rice, which has a natural fragrance and a unique flavor.

"Husband, you eat too."

Liu Qingqing used his chopsticks to hold some glutinous rice to his man's mouth and feed it to his man.

"It's so fragrant."

After swallowing the glutinous rice in one bite, Ye Guangrong said with some aftertaste. This taste is the one he liked when he was a child, and it evoked Ye Yaorong's childhood memories.

When Ye Yaorong was young, the entire Taoyuan Village was poor. On weekdays, the white rice he ate was cooked with sweet potatoes, not to mention wanting to eat this glutinous rice.

That is, every year when making glutinous rice wine at home, Ye Yaorong could only eat glutinous rice. I remembered that Ye Yaorong ate too much glutinous rice once, his stomach was full, and he couldn't eat all day.

...

Twenty minutes later, the rice in the big pottery pot was not so hot. Ye always took a piece of white-yellow object from the house and walked over. After crushing it with a wooden stick, he began to crush it. Pour the shreds of things into the glutinous rice, stir evenly with a wooden stick, and sprinkle evenly.

"Husband, what is Grandpa Five doing?"

Liu Qingqing looked at Grandpa Wu's movements suspiciously, and asked his man curiously.

"Grandpa Wu is sprinkling distiller's yeast, and rice wine can only be fermented by this distiller's song to make delicious rice wine." Ye Yaorong said.

This koji is very important for making wine. Koji is made by transferring the conidia of Aspergillus into the white rice that has been intensively steamed, and then keeping it warm, and hyphae grow lushly on the rice grains. It's what people call Jiuqu.

Koji is an indispensable thing for wine making. Without this koji, rice cannot be fermented. It can't be made into wine.

"Does all wine brewing need koji?" Liu Qingqing asked.

"I don't know about this, but liquor and beer brewing require koji." Ye Yaorong thought for a while and said.

Grandpa Five stirred for a while. He compacted the rice a little bit, then dug a hole in the middle, sprinkled the cold white water that had been prepared a long time ago, and put a big wooden lid on the big pottery pot.

It is necessary to use plain boiled water instead of ordinary water. The plain boiled water is water that has been boiled at a high temperature. The microorganisms and bacteria in it are basically killed and will not affect the fermentation of koji.

"Honor. Come here and take a hand, let's lift this big basin to the big pot outside." Ye Xianglai wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to Ye Guangrong.

"it is good."

Ye Yaorong hurriedly walked to the big basin and raised the big basin with Grandpa Wu.

The big pottery basin was very heavy, weighing more than three hundred catties. Ye Yaorong lifted this end easily, but the fifth grandfather's end was just lifted off the ground and put it down, and he couldn't lift it anymore.

"I'm old, I'm really old. I can't lift it even with such a little weight."

Ye Xianglai sighed involuntarily. When he was young, Ye had always had a lot of energy. At that time, he followed the elders in the village to carry wood for sale in the neighboring county. They carried two or three hundred catties of wood and ran all over the mountains.

At that time, the state did not allow private buying and selling of trees, but at that time, everyone who was poor couldn't live anymore, so how could we take care of these?

They all ran deep into the mountains in the neighboring counties and bought big tree heads from the villagers in the mountains. After buying them, they carried the wood on the small road in the mountains and headed towards home secretly.

The state does not allow private buying and selling of trees. There must be people from the wood industry department who are checking, and there are also patrol teams on the mountain. Once you meet them.

Everyone carried the wood and ran to various parts of the mountain, and it was common for everyone to run away. Some people get lost in the mountains, and it is common for them to get out of the mountains after going around for more than ten days.

However, it was better than being caught by someone from the wood industry department. If he was caught at that time, he would not be sentenced to any punishment. The most feared would be a three or five days in prison.

The most terrible thing is that the wood you buy must be confiscated. You must know that a piece of wood is carried out of the mountain and sold, and you can earn tens or hundreds of dollars. In the era of dividing money, this is a lot of money, enough for a family of three to five months of living expenses.

This was taken away, and even the capital was lost. The few people in the family had nowhere to live for half a year, and they had to rely on borrowing money to live.

At that time, Ye has always been a young man in his early twenties, and he had the strength of a single body. He carried two or three hundred catties of wood and walked for a long time without rest.

But now that he is old, he can't even carry a three-hundred-jin item with others. It really doesn't work if he doesn't recognize his old age.

"Grandpa Five, or I will come alone." Ye Yaorong said.

"You are alone, with such a big basin and 300 kilograms of heavy things, how do you handle it? I'll go out of the village and ask a young guy to come and help."

Ye Xianglai shook his head and said. It wasn't that Ye Xianglai didn't believe that Ye Yaorong couldn't pick up three hundred catties. After all, when he fished in the village last time, Ye Xianglai could see that Ye Yaorong had great strength.

But if you have great strength, you may not be able to pick up this big pot. The main reason is that the big pot is big and difficult to handle. It is difficult for a person to make strength.

In order for a person to pick up this large basin weighing 300 kilograms, this person needs at least the strength to easily carry more than four hundred kilograms with both hands.

However, Ye has always thought that no one in Taoyuan Village has such great strength.

We must know that people nowadays are not as powerful as the previous ones. People in the past often worked and carried heavy objects. They had two or three hundred kilograms of strength on their bodies. But it is really difficult to think about four hundred kilograms of strength, Ye I have always seen a person with such great strength in this life, when I was young.

As people's living conditions get better and faster, young people nowadays are less and less able to work hard, and their strength is getting smaller and smaller.

"Grandpa Five, you don't need to call someone, I'll do it alone."

Ye Yaorong said. Although it is said that this large basin is not easy to hold, if the strength is strong enough, it can still be picked up easily.

"Really, don't be aggressive, it won't be good if you flash to the waist." Ye Xianglai looked at Ye Yaorong a little worried and said.

After all, things of more than three hundred kilograms are not so easy to handle. If it flashes to the waist, it is a very troublesome thing. This is the same as the muscles and bones, but it takes a long time to rest.

"Grandpa Fifth, I'm very strong, this little weight really can't trouble me." Ye Yaorong said with a smile.

"Then you try, don't be brave!" Ye Xiang said.

Ye has always been really worried that Ye Rongrong, a young man, didn't know the importance. In order to behave, he had to move such a heavy thing.

"know."

With that said, Ye Yaorong bent down and held the two handles of the basin with both hands. With a strong effort, the big basin went off the ground. Because the basin was relatively large, Ye Yaorong could not straighten his back and could only hold it with his back. Big pot.

"Glory, are you okay?"

Even though Ye Xianglai was surprised at Ye Yaorong's strength, he still asked uneasy. After all, such a heavy pot was a bit difficult for two grown-up men to lift. Ye Yaorong held it alone and held it so high, Ye Xianglai was really worried.

Compared with Ye Xiang's nervousness, Liu Qingqing didn't worry about his man at all, but Liu Qingqing knew better than anyone how powerful his man was.

Liu Qingqing himself weighed over ninety catties somehow, but in the hands of his own man, it was like weightlessness. He could easily perform all kinds of difficult movements.

"It's okay, it's not very heavy, I can move it."

After Ye Yaorong finished speaking, he carried the big pottery pot to the stove in the yard, which was stacked up with bricks in advance. Ye Yaorong carefully put the pottery pot into the big iron pot.

"Husband, drink water."

After Ye Yaorong put the big pottery pot in place, Liu Qingqing brought a bowl of cold boiled water to his man, and wiped the sweat from his forehead with a paper towel.

Even though the weight of this big pottery basin could hardly defeat Ye Yaorong, it was really hard to hold by one person. Even with Ye Yaorong's current strength, there was still some sweat on his forehead.

Of course, it has something to do with today's weather. Now the temperature has started to rise, and the outdoor temperature at noon is already 20 degrees.

The reason why the pottery pot is put in the iron pot is also exquisite.

The optimal fermentation temperature of rice wine is very particular. Thirty to thirty-two degrees Celsius is the best. If it is high, it will easily turn into rice vinegar, and if it is low, it will not taste like alcohol.

Although the outdoor temperature is already 20 degrees at noon now, at night, the temperature drops to about ten degrees, which is not conducive to the fermentation of rice koji.

So put this pottery pot in an iron pot and slowly burn it in a large pot to maintain the temperature. There is a daytime plus one night time, and the rice wine can be made in the evening of the next day.

"Grandpa Five, is this all right?" Liu Qingqing asked suspiciously.

"It's almost done, just put it out tomorrow night," Ye Xiangkai said.

"Wait tomorrow night?"

Liu Qingqing thought he would be able to drink out soon~www.wuxiaspot.com~ but didn't expect that she would have to wait for tomorrow night.

"This wine also takes time to ferment. Tomorrow night, you and Glory will come over to drink rice wine and eat rice wine."

Ye Xiangkai picked up the cold white boiled water on the large coarse porcelain bowl on the table and drank it, nodded with a smile and said to Liu Qingqing.

In the countryside, the best drink is plain water. Whether at home or out to work, the villagers will fill a bottle of cold plain water. When they are thirsty, they will drink a sip, which is healthy and saves money.

In the eyes of rural people, drinking more boiled water is better than taking any medicine. It is good for your health. Moreover, you don’t need to spend a penny to buy this boiled water outside. It is enough to burn a few water bottles with your own firewood every day. Used it for a day.

"What is rice and wine?"

Liu Qingqing had never eaten it, nor had he seen rice with wine, so he couldn't help but asked curiously. (To be continued.)
