After traveling through time, I led the whole village to become rich!

Wang Xingren really couldn't come up with so much silver.

"Aunt, it's settled then. When can you produce wine in large quantities?"

Zhang Hulan said: "The first batch of wine has been released, and more wine will be released later.

The initial production will not be too high, but it will stabilize after two or three months.”

Wang Xingren nodded and said, "Okay, I just happened to be selling my shop during this period."

After things were discussed, Zhang Hulan and the others returned to the yard outside.

By now, about seven or eight kilograms of wine had been produced. Zhang Hulan asked Zhang Hujun to pack the wine in front separately, and do the same for the wine in the back pots. She wanted to take these wines away.

That night, Zhang Hulan held another meeting at home.

Dong Jianyong, Luo Changqi, Huang Zhong and Yuan Gang were all there, while Xu Hu stayed in the capital.

Zhang Hulan said, "Dad, Mom, Big Brother and Sister-in-law, Hu Bing Chunhua, I will be leaving for the capital in a few days. I will leave the house to you."

Old man Zhang said, "Just rest assured and work in the capital. Don't worry about your family. We will take care of everything for you."

Xiang Chunhua said, "Don't worry, sister. We promise to manage the manor well for you."

Zhang Hulan smiled and nodded, then said, "Hu Bing, from now on, you will be responsible for everything we sell. You must supervise it for me."

Zhang Hubing nodded, "Don't worry, sister."

Zhang Hulan then said to Zhang Hujun, "Brother, from now on, all the production on the farm will be handed over to you. You must take special care of this winery and make sure no one else can steal our skills.

The winery will be completed in a few days, and several sets of steamers will be delivered.

We will need a lot of manpower by then, and all the people in the winery must be hired by ourselves. We cannot use people from the villagers. We must be on guard against others.

If you don’t have enough manpower, go buy one, and buy a fixed contract.

The workers in the winery should also be arranged separately and not live together with other people on the farm."

Zhang Hujun nodded, "Okay, I'll pay attention."

After Zhang Hulan came back, she asked Luo Changqi to arrange people to build a winery, which was right next to Zhang Hulan's house.

The winery is surrounded by high walls, and the people who work in the winery eat and live inside.

Finally, Zhang Hulan said to Luo Changqi, Huang Zhong, and Yuan Gang, "Uncles, I'll have to trouble you to take care of the family from now on. Uncle Huang, please help me take care of the winery from now on."

Luo Changqi and the other two nodded and agreed, saying they would definitely help Zhang Hulan look after the family.

Zhang Hujun asked, "Sister, we've dug up all the lotus roots. The wine isn't being consumed quickly, so will they spoil? Should we keep them indoors?"

Zhang Hulan said, "It's okay. Just throw it on the ground. Just cover it with some grass. It will be fine for two months."

Zhang Hulan continued to make arrangements, "I will buy some more large vats in the next few days, and then we will start steaming and fermenting in large quantities.

Some of them are fermented for a longer time, and the distilled wine must also be separated.

You also need to dig a wine cellar, leave some wine in jars, seal them and bury them underground.

Mark the wine jars: three months, six months, one year, three years…”

Zhang Hulan made arrangements for every detail, and the Zhang family listened carefully.

After Zhang Hulan finished speaking, Zhang Hujun asked, "Sister, the pigs in the farm will be ready for sale in June or July. Will they be sold alive or slaughtered for meat?"

Zhang Hulan said, "Don't sell it. Keep it until the second half of the year. We have enough fodder for the pigs, so keep them. If the pig pens are not big enough, we'll expand them. I'll tell you what I'm going to do then."

"Okay, it's up to you."

……

The next day, Zhang Hulan sent a few jars of wine to Wu Deyong.

Now Wu Deyong was living a single life. Apart from being busy with official business every day, he felt a little miserable at home at night. The bed was a little cold.

After tasting the wine brought by Zhang Hulan, Wu Deyong praised it highly. Zhang Hulan told Wu Deyong that if he ran out of wine, he could go to his house to get more.

Wu Deyong said yes with a smile.

After Zhang Hulan returned home, she told Zhang Hujun to send two jars of better quality wine to Wu Deyong every month.

A few days later, the custom-made steamers were ready and the winery was completed.

After the steamers were installed in the winery and everything was arranged, Zhang Hulan prepared to go to the capital.

Before leaving, Zhang Hulan reminded Zhang Hujun and others that they should continue to go to school every day.

We don't ask them to learn poetry, songs or beautiful articles, but only require them to recognize and write more words, mainly in arithmetic, and they must learn more.

Everyone in the village came to see them off.

During this period, those families who planted lotus roots were all very happy.

They took the dried vermicelli to the county town to sell, bringing over a hundred kilograms, and sold them out as soon as they arrived.

At twelve coins per jin (approximately 100 jin), that's a little over one liang (approximately 100 liang) of silver. Once all the lotus roots were made into vermicelli noodles, each family could sell over ten liang (approximately 100 liang) of silver.

This is because we have to keep a lot of varieties and can't make all of them into vermicelli, otherwise one family can only sell more than 20 taels.

This is the income from one acre of land. They have planted a lot more this year, so each family will definitely make a lot of money next year.

All the other families in the village also followed suit and planted the crops. Now they all regret not planting together last year. How could they miss it again this year?

Xiang Chunhua hugged Zhang Hulan, tears streaming down her face, "Sister, what should I do if I miss you in the future?"

Zhang Hulan couldn't stand Xiang Chunhua's behavior and would make sentimental advances towards her from time to time.

"Okay, okay, if you miss me, if the farm is not busy in the summer, you can go to the capital with your parents and others to play."

"Really?"

Xiang Chunhua's tears stopped immediately and she looked at Zhang Hulan with shining eyes.

"Why would I lie to you? Just go if you want to."

"Okay, okay, if I'm not busy, I'll go to the capital to play with my elder sister."

……

Early March, Beijing.

As soon as Zhang Hulan returned home to the capital, she hurriedly asked Aunt Tao if anything had happened at home.

Nanny Tao did not follow Zhang Hulan back to Changning County, but was left in the capital to take care of Zhang Xinyue and the others.

Aunt Tao smiled and replied, "Don't worry, Madam. Everything is fine at home. The third young lady is at the Imperial Observatory during the day and comes home at night. Taoist Master Daochen escorts her there and back. The two cousins ​​and Master Zhou study every day. Everything is fine."

Zhang Hulan was relieved, as long as everything was fine.

"Ma'am, would you like to take a bath first or have something to eat?"

"Take a shower first."

Zhang Hulan and Zhang Xinyao both took a shower, ate something, and then Zhang Xinyao and Zhang Xinyi went to rest.

Zhang Hulan first delivered two jars of wine to the Wang family, chatted with Ye Hongling for a while, and then said goodbye.

Then she took the wine and went to Wu's house to find Ye Hongyun.
