Chapter 275 Brewing Sorghum Liquor
Wei Chengyi did not stay at home. When Shen Xiangwan got up, he had already taken Qingying and Yan Junling to the provincial capital. There was no other way. The people from the East Territory needed him to come forward to appease them. Shen Xiangwan was not the kind of woman who needed a man's company all the time. Seeing that it was already late September and the sorghum in the field was gradually ripening, she also had to prepare to brew sorghum wine and extract alcohol.

In order to put the sorghum harvested from the fields into use immediately, Shen Xiangwan decided to take out some sorghum from the space and brew a batch of sorghum wine first. She took Yuan Yue and Yuan Ying out that day. Two hours later, dozens of horse-drawn carriages carrying sorghum entered the village in a mighty manner, which once again attracted a lot of attention. But it was just attention. After seeing it so many times, the villagers didn't think it was strange anymore.

"Auntie."

The little cub, who had just returned from school, broke away from his grandmother's hand and ran to her with his schoolbag on his back. Although the temperature has dropped recently, it is still a bit stuffy because it has not rained. The little cub is sweating profusely.

"Look at you, why are you running? Aren't you hot?"

Squatting down to catch him, Shen Xiangwan took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

“It’s hot. It’s so hot!”

After she said that, the little cub, who had originally felt nothing, stuck out his tongue and kept fanning himself with his hands.

"little bastard!"

Shen Xiangwan tapped his head with her fingers in annoyance and stood up: "Go back with grandma and the others to wash your face. I'll be back soon."

"it is good."

The little cub nodded obediently, turned around and held his grandmother's hand again.

"Wanwan, what is this? Food?"

Zhao Yuping, who had already come in front of them, asked doubtfully while holding the child's hand. The sacks on each car were piled up like a mountain, at least several thousand kilograms, and dozens of cars held at least hundreds of thousands of kilograms. Even if they had more people, they would not be able to finish eating them in a short time.

"It's sweet sorghum. I'm going to brew a batch of sorghum and also prepare for distilling alcohol."

Shen Xiangwan did not hide it. She smiled as she looked at the people moving the things and said that the equipment for refining alcohol had been made long ago, with a total of ten sets. During this period, she also asked Yuanyue to find a cooperating kiln factory to customize a lot of ceramic jars with a capacity of about 100 kilograms, as well as 20,000 wine jars with a capacity of ten kilograms. The things produced in the space are good for the body if consumed for a long time, so she plans to brew all of this batch of sweet sorghum into sorghum wine and keep it for their own drinking, and then refine the alcohol when the sorghum in the field is ripe.

"Alcohol is made from sweet sorghum?"

They are no strangers to alcohol, as it is used to castrate pigs at home and to treat external injuries. Someone even asked her where they bought it.

"Well, not just sweet sorghum. In principle, any grain will do."

The extraction of alcohol is the further fermentation and distillation of strong liquor. As long as you master the method and have special equipment, it is very easy to obtain.

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore."

Nodding, Zhao Yuping took the child and left with Zhou Wushuang and the others. She almost didn't have to take care of anything now. She just had to look after the child, do needlework with the women of the Shen family, or hang out with people in the village. Her life was both plain and fulfilling.

Brewing sorghum wine is not very difficult, but it is not as simple as imagined. It requires a series of processes such as crushing the raw materials, steaming and gelatinizing, cooling, adding koji, fermentation and distillation. Finally, you can get sorghum wine that is crystal clear, has a mellow and long-lasting aroma, and leaves a lingering fragrance on your teeth and cheeks after drinking it, and the smell will not dissipate for a long time.

After sending the children to school in the afternoon, Shen Xiangwan personally led the servants in the house to grind tens of thousands of kilograms of sorghum using the stone mill that had been prepared long ago. If there were not enough pottery jars, she would probably have ground all the sorghum.

The next day, she got up early again and continued to lead the servants to steam and cook the crushed sorghum. It was not until the third day when it was completely cooled that she added the yeast and sealed it in a ceramic jar for fermentation. "Madam, how many days will it take to ferment?"

After working for two or three days, Yuan Yue Yuanying looked at the densely packed pottery jars in the warehouse with a sense of accomplishment. There were countless kinds of wine in the market, but most of them were rice wine, fruit wine or flower wine. She had never heard that sorghum could be used to make wine, and she was looking forward to what the wine would taste like.

“Four or five days of this kind of weather is enough.”

Shen Xiangwan was also very happy while pounding his aching waist: "Please hurry up to get the custom-made pottery jars and wine jars. These are far from enough."

Once the sorghum in the fields is harvested, she will set up a workshop to officially brew and refine alcohol. This amount of stuff is simply not enough.

"Well, I'll go to the kiln factory myself later."

Hearing this, Yuan Yue also had a headache. As far as she knew, the kiln factory they cooperated with had been expanded again and again, but it still could not meet their needs. The main reason was that in addition to their customized wine jars, the ointment workshop also needed a large number of porcelain bottles, and those were more delicate jobs, and they were far less quick to make than pottery wine jars.

"If that doesn't work, then find a few more kiln factories."

In any case, before setting up a brewing workshop, you must get enough pottery jars and wine jars.

"it is good."

Yuan Yue nodded and agreed. Shen Xiangwan said no more and turned around and left the workshop. Finally finished her work, she was ready to go back to the space to take a good bath to relieve her fatigue.

While they were busy, the news that the Yin Yue Tower was massacred by the Jade-faced Old Monster Ji Shaohan overnight spread throughout the martial arts world. After learning that the couple had both reached the Heavenly Man Realm, all major sects in the martial arts world were shocked. The Heavenly Man Realm is the pinnacle of martial arts, and there are only a few people in the whole world who can reach that level, but that couple has reached that level. Isn't that infuriating?
At the same time, in the imperial study of the palace.

"What did you say?"

The emperor, who was reviewing memorials, suddenly looked up, as if he had heard some Arabian Nights fairy tale.

"···"

The man kneeling on one knee raised his head and looked at him cautiously. He had to bite the bullet and continue, "Your Majesty, the assassination we carried out with Yinyue Tower has failed. Just now, I received news that Yinyue Tower was destroyed overnight. The one who destroyed them was none other than Wei Chengyi's master, Ji Shaohan, who was known as the Jade-faced Old Monster in the martial arts world. I heard that he wanted revenge for his apprentice. In addition, he and his wife are already powerful people in the Heavenly Man Realm."

His name is Xu Hui, he is the leader of the Dragon Shadow Guard, he is forty years old, tall, and has ordinary looks, but he has a very strong aura and he is already half a step away from becoming a celestial being.

"bump!"

"What's the point of me raising you?"

Hearing this, the emperor grabbed the teacup on the dragon table and threw it at him. Xu Hui did not dare to dodge and could only let the teacup hit him. However, the emperor's anger did not subside, but instead became more and more intense. He never dreamed that in just a few months, the person who was once poisoned and could only be controlled by him would grow to this point.
