Traveling through the famine, I stockpiled supplies like crazy

"I'm not going! It seems like there's nothing big to buy! I'll stay home and prepare to make wine tomorrow!"

"Okay, I'll go there by myself tomorrow."

"If you're not in a hurry, just sleep a little longer and don't go so early. You must be tired after dragging the wild boar for such a long distance today." Xu Han reminded.

"Just make it before lunch, and I'll go tomorrow morning."

"Okay. By the way, please bring me some rock sugar. Bring more, 10 to 20 kilograms will do. We don't have any at home."

"Okay, I see."

Although talkative, Lu Chuan is quite smart. After all, sugar is a precious commodity and if you buy too much at once, people will definitely covet it. Therefore, Lu Chuan often changes stores to buy things and never buys from the same store all the time.

After finishing the meal, Lu Chuan continued to deal with the wild boar, while Xu Han started to wash the dishes and pots, and boiled a pot of hot water for the two of them to take a bath later.

After doing all this, Lu Chuan had already processed the wild boar meat, took a shower, and then the two of them rested.

The next day, Lu Chuan pushed a wheelbarrow to the county town to sell wild boar meat.

Xu Han stayed at home, and her main job today was to make wine!

After taking care of the livestock, they went to the backyard to wash the clothes that the two had taken off yesterday.

Then take out the grapes from the space and cut them one by one with scissors. Be patient when cutting and don't be anxious.

If you encounter broken or damaged wine, you must pick it out in time to avoid ruining the wine.

Xu Han soaked a lot of grapes, about 500 kilograms, so a lot of time was wasted just on picking the grapes.

I didn't finish pruning all the grapes until the afternoon. It seems that I can't do it today! I can only wait until tomorrow.

Because you still have to wash the grapes! When washing the grapes, just rinse them twice with water.

Be careful not to wash off the white frost on the grapes when washing. The white frost on the grapes helps the fermentation of the wine later.

After cleaning everything, take them out, put them on a dustpan and let the water dry.

Then take out the large jar that will be used to soak wine tomorrow, clean it, and drain the water.

There must be no water in the jar used to make wine, otherwise the wine will go bad.

Only after all the water on it has dried up can you start making wine.

After drying, it's still too late to do it! Xu Han simply went outside to continue digging konjac.

Carrying the backpack, calling Heifeng, Heidian and the puppies, they went out together to look for konjac over there.

This time, Xu Han went there directly from her home, which was a different route from last time. After walking for about thirty minutes, she found a field of konjac.

There are not many konjacs in this patch, only a dozen or so, but each one is very large.

Xu Han cut off the konjac stalks and started digging.

After digging here, he didn't go forward and turned around and went home.

Lu Chuan should have returned by now. When Xu Han got home, she saw Lu Chuan repairing tools in the yard.

"Where have you been?" Lu Chuan asked when he saw Xu Han walk in.

"After washing the grapes, I went over there to dig konjac."

"Why don't you wait for me to dig together? It's all hard work, don't tire yourself out."

"It's okay. I just dug a few and came back. How was your day? Have you sold all the wild boar meat?"

"It's sold out. Today's wild boar is quite big, so I sold it for 11 taels and 260 coins." After Lu Chuan said that, he took out 15 silver coins and handed them to Xu Han.

There is also some money saved from selling prey in here! Xu Han said that he would give it to her when he had saved enough money.

Keep the rest for yourself. After all, you need to buy things frequently, and it is inconvenient if you don’t have money.

"That's pretty good!" Xu Han took it without hesitation.

When he turned around, he saw the rock sugar that he had asked Lu Chuan to bring back. It was a full bag, weighing about ten pounds.

Before, Xu Han only bought brown sugar and didn’t think of stocking up on rock sugar. What a mistake!

This time I remembered that I wanted to make wine, and there was no rock sugar at home, so I asked Lu Chuan to bring it back.

Lu Chuan also bought some miscellaneous things, and Xu Han classified them all, putting those that should be put in space in space, and those that should be put in the warehouse in the warehouse.

After everything was in order, I went to the kitchen and started to prepare today's dinner, which I kept simple.

Corn porridge, salted duck eggs, and stir-fried cucumbers. There was no meat today.

Let's have a lighter dinner today! It's not good to eat a lot of oil and meat every day!

After dinner, Lu Chuan said, "Today's weather looks bad. It might rain again."

Xu Han also agreed, "Yes! It's a bit cloudy outside! You shouldn't go tomorrow! What if it rains? You'll get wet again."

"Okay, let's check the weather first!"

After the two finished dinner, Xu Han put away the grapes and jars that she had washed today. If it rained, they would get wet again, so it would be safer to put them inside the house.

On the second day, the weather was still gloomy, so the two did not go outside. Lu Chuan went to the wasteland to pull out the weeds.

Xu Han continued to take out the grapes to dry in the sun. When they were almost dry, she just needed to blow them in the air for a while.

Anyway, I'm at home! If I see the weather is not right, I'll put it away quickly so that I won't get wet.

After drying the grapes, Xu Han went to the backyard again to pick the vegetables that could be picked. It might rain, and the tomatoes should not be exposed to the rain as they would easily crack.

After picking all the grapes, the sky was getting darker and darker. Xu Han quickly put the grapes into the space. Soon, light raindrops began to fall outside.

Then it got heavier and heavier. Seeing it was raining, Lu Chuan quickly ran back.

Then Xu Han started preparing to brew wine at the door of the main hall before daybreak.

Put the dried and cleaned grapes into the jar and crush them with your hands, then add a layer of rock sugar, and add the grapes and rock sugar layer by layer.

Don't add any more until the jar is 70% full, because after the grapes ferment, they will produce gas and the grape skins will float up, so you have to leave some space.

During the winemaking process, it is necessary to ensure that there is no oil or water in the production process and container, otherwise it will easily go bad.

A total of 500 large jars were made from 10 kilograms of grapes.

There were still some grapes left, so Xu Han used the method of soaking mulberry wine to make two more jars.

They were moved into the cellar together, and the rest just waited for time to slowly ferment.

It was already past lunchtime, so Xu Han quickly took out the food from the space, and the two began to eat their lunch.

After eating, Xu Han made new shoes for them, while Lu Chuan peeled the remaining ice fruit.

There are not many ice powder fruits left, which is just enough for two people. After all, it can’t be eaten as a meal.

When you have free time, you can just pick some more. The main reason why Xu Han wants to prepare more is that it will be too hot during the drought and she won’t be able to eat.

The two of them were busy with their own things, and when it was time for dinner, they went to the kitchen together to cook dinner.
