Chapter 35: Winemaking

This time, Wang Leshan did not choose to redeem the brain-boosting fruit immediately, just like he did with Dali Bean.

After about five or six hours in the space, all the millet from Lingdao was dried in the sun. Each grain was very plump. There was no need to sift through it. I took out sacks and packed them all. There were seven big sacks in total. The remaining nearly 20 kilograms were soaked in. Inside the third level spiritual water.

He put away the bamboo mats used to dry the rice, and spread out all the rice stalks to dry the rice again.

After the rice stalks were dried, they were all tied up and moved outside. They brought tools such as hoes from outside to clean up the remaining roots of the spiritual rice, and then plowed the ground. There was not much space, about All this work was done in an hour or two.

I filled the space with spiritual water again and turned the space into a paddy field. When the twenty kilograms were almost soaked, I started raising seedlings again. With the experience of the last time, the progress was obviously much faster this time. Temperature adjustment and other things were more important. It became easy for me.

These 20 kilograms of millet are naturally grown to be planted in the 12 acres of land outside.

By the time all this is done, it will only be around ten o'clock outside.

Behind the cabin, there are about two acres of dry land, which has been abandoned there without planting anything. Wang Leshan took tools to clean up all the weeds, stones, and waste on the wasteland, and then spread the dried spiritual rice straw evenly on the two acres of land. He lit the rice straw with a fire and burned it. got up.

Wang Leshan is planning to turn more than two acres of wasteland into a high-end vegetable garden!

If such a large farm were to use all third-level spiritual water, judging from the current situation, even if a way to replenish energy had been found, it would be unlikely. However, it was completely possible with just two acres of land.

As for why he wanted to set up a separate vegetable garden, Wang Leshan's idea was simple. It was to make his own people eat better. He couldn't just eat what he sold. He had to be more advanced, right

In addition to being eaten by yourself, the extra can also be used as gifts for others. Since it is a gift, of course it is higher quality than what you sell yourself.

People like to classify everything, including people, into three, six or nine grades. This is why Wang Leshan wanted to go the high-quality route after harvesting the white radish, and this high-end vegetable garden can be regarded as the best among the best.

The cultivated land was burned with rice straw from Lingdao in order to increase the soil fertility of this fine vegetable garden. The spiritual water is of the third level, and the soil naturally hopes to be better.

"The power of the soil..."

Wang Leshan watched the rice stalks burning, and suddenly remembered that when he returned the "Duanmei" to the old man named Ye, he rubbed a small amount of first-order spiritual soil into the flower pot, and his eyes lit up.

After all the rice stalks were burned, Wang Leshan returned to the cabin and entered the space. He used a hoe to dig out two baskets of first-level spiritual soil in the space. Wang Leshan was not sure how deep the first-level spiritual soil was in this space, so he stopped after digging two baskets, fearing that digging too much would damage the space.

Wang Leshan carefully broke up two baskets of red soil, crushed it, and spread it evenly over the two acres of land. Then he poured third-level spiritual water into the ground to nourish it.

"What to plant?"

Wang Leshan touched his chin and started thinking, and a general idea appeared in his mind. It was daily and short-term. This was Wang Leshan's first choice.

"It's better to search online and make sure."

Wang Leshan went into the cabin and opened his laptop, and slowly started searching on the Internet. In the process of searching, many links to vegetable seeds naturally came to a certain website.

When he was in Shencheng before, Wang Leshan had bought things on a certain online store, mainly to get a bargain. This time I took a closer look and found that this certain treasure website was really all-inclusive, with almost all kinds of seeds available. Wang Leshan added all the suitable ones he saw to his shopping cart.

"Hey, they even sell ginseng seeds here."

Wang Leshan chose the one with the highest price and highest reviews and bought a set of Northeastern ginseng. He didn’t think much about it, he just wanted to take it back and look at it.

Looking around, there are already a lot of things in the shopping cart.

After paying the money, Wang Leshan thought about buying it once and checking it out. If it was good, he would buy it from here in the future. It would be convenient to have it delivered to his door with just a few clicks.

Before dawn, Wang Leshan entered the space and pulled out the spiritual rice seedlings that had been grown and tied them into small handfuls. He took them out and put them in the truck and locked them. At the same time, he also put in two bags of spiritual rice seedlings.

As for the seedlings, there happened to be some leftover, and Wang Leshan planted them all in the space before dawn. The space could not be wasted and left there. In the real world, in 6 days, a round of spiritual rice can be harvested in the space, which is also a good way to increase points.

As the sun gradually rose, the farm became lively again.

Almost at the same time that the roadbed on the road side was all laid, the tilling of the fields on the farm was also completed.

Before noon, Wang Leshan drove the truck outside. First, he went around in a circle, and then went to the rice mill in the neighboring village. He used a rice huller to shell all the two bags of millet into brown rice. For this spiritual rice I was confident, so I naturally did not continue to process it into white rice with only the endosperm left. As for the fallen rice husks, Wang Leshan also specifically asked people from the rice mill to collect them for him. If he was willing to pay more, they naturally had no objection.

People in the rice mill were shocked when they saw the rice. When they asked Wang Leshan about the origin of the rice, Wang Leshan naturally pretended to be mysterious and smiled without answering.

After grinding the rice, Wang Leshan returned to Dakang Village and asked Fatty Li and others to go to the truck to unload the prepared seedlings, pretending that they were specially transported from somewhere outside.

Farmers Hong Dehai and Wang Xiangxiang naturally praised these spiritual rice seedlings, and they believed Wang Leshan's theory of new rice.

Wang Leshan drove back home, put a bag of rice into the house, and told his mother, Hong Ximei, to use this kind of rice for cooking in the future. Hong Ximei naturally had no objection.

Wang Leshan put the remaining bag of rice on the farm, where he had already bought a gas stove and a rice cooker, so He Yuting would not have to worry about running around in the future.

What I had for lunch was Ling rice. Needless to say, the taste was absolutely unprecedented. The rice smell was absolutely unprecedented, and the presentation was even better. Fatty Li Wang Xiang and others originally had a big appetite, but this time it was even more exaggerated. Everyone almost ate no less than four bowls at noon, and they even said that this kind of rice can be eaten even without any vegetables, it is too delicious too delicious.

As soon as they heard that this kind of rice was a new type of rice, these people were even more surprised. At the same time, they became more confident. They were also secretly excited to help Shanzi grow this kind of rice. If they can get it at home next year, It would be great to plant some.

Among the exaggerated words of these people, Hong Dehai's words made Wang Leshan's eyes light up: "If this kind of glutinous rice is brewed into rice wine, my mother, the taste... I'll be drunk just thinking about it!"

Wang Leshan asked: "Uncle Ahai, do you think this kind of rice can make wine?"

"Of course, the glutinousness and aroma of this kind of rice are most suitable for making wine." Hong Dehai nodded and explained: "I used to work in a brewery in the town."

"That's it."

Wang Leshan thought this was a pretty good idea, and asked Hong Dehai a few questions about wine making. He kept it in mind, and was going to find some information to check. If he could really make wine, that would be great. God knows how good the wine brewed from this kind of spiritual rice will be, and it will definitely sell for a good price!

"After eating so much, I don't feel bloated. Hey, my whole body seems to be much better. I feel like I didn't do much in the morning."

After eating, Fatty Li said something, and Hong Dehai and Wang Xiangxiang both nodded. They felt that what they said was absolutely correct, and they couldn't help but sigh that the rice was so good.

Wang Leshan let the three people rest for a while, and he was going to recruit some casual workers at the entrance of the village. Normally, if you transplant rice by hand, no matter how fast you are, you can't plant two acres in a day. Wang Leshan is in a hurry to plant all the spiritual rice today. , naturally we need to find more people.

Upon hearing that Wang Leshan wanted to recruit more people, Hong Qingqing asked He Yuting to translate and said that her parents could come to help when they were free. Fatty Li also said that his father could come over. Hong Dehai and Wang Xiangxiang also recommended two people.

As a result, there were eight more people, plus Wang Dali, Fatty Li, Hong Dehai, Wang Xiangxiang, Hong Qingqing, and He Yuting who had to go to the fields, there were a total of fourteen people. All twelve acres of land were filled before the sun set in the afternoon. The seedlings of spiritual rice.

After inviting these people to dinner, Wang Leshan paid the wages to the casual workers together. Those who came this afternoon were counted as one day. As for Hong Dehai and Wang Xiangxiang, they both received an extra day's money. For such small money, Wang Leshan is naturally willing to be generous.

When he woke up the next day, Wang Leshan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the spiritual rice had successfully survived in reality.

Another day has passed, and the construction of the cement road has almost been completed, and it has entered the stage of road maintenance. It will be ready for use in a few days after all the cement has solidified and formed.

Wang Leshan also received an express delivery from a certain Bao.com. In addition to the vegetables and ginseng he originally bought, there were also things needed for wine making that were later added.

Vegetable seeds were planted in the high-end vegetable garden, and ginseng was scattered beside the peach trees in the space.

After entering the space at night, Wang Leshan started making wine for the first time.

Wang Leshan found the brewing method himself from the Internet, and also asked Hong Dehai for advice. He had gone through the steps in his mind many times.

First, soak the spiritual rice in the third-level spiritual water. After about two or three hours, you can lightly crush it with your fingers, drain the water and rinse it. Use the steamer you bought during the day to steam a lot, and wait until it cools to 30 degrees. Around the same time, I mixed the koji in proportion and put them into the two prepared large wooden barrels. I also mixed some wine powder with spiritual water and mixed it with the rice repeatedly with my hands...

After working for a long time, Wang Leshan finally finished the brewing process and finally put the wooden board on it. The next thing to do is to wait for time to brew slowly.

As for whether the immature or even incorrect wine making for the first time can be successful, Wang Leshan is not sure.

But at least it’s spiritual rice plus spiritual water, so it’s not too bad...

I went to sleep with a slightly uneasy feeling.
