162 This “Friend” Is Really Generous

Wild fruits filled the front yard of Bai Wutong’s house.

Bai Wutong asked the dark guards to help classify all the fruits. After removing the cores, washing, and drying them, they could be used to make fruit wine.

The courtyard was getting busy in an organized manner. The next day, 2,500 kilograms of white wine were transported to Youjia Village one cart by one cart.

Bai Wutong’s warehouse could not fit, so she could only store them in everyone’s houses.

Only then did some villagers realize that Bai Wutong had bought so many fruits to make fruit wine.

An ordinary jar of white wine was a luxury for ordinary people, let alone fruit wine with fruits and sugar.

After making so much, it would be a huge loss if Bai Wutong couldn’t sell it.

As soon as the wine was settled, Sheng Huaixuan looked for Bai Wutong and said, “My friend wants to buy all the fruit wine made by Sister-in-law. If sister-in-law is willing, the price will be set by you.”

The fruit wine had yet to be made, but there were already people bidding. This showed his trust that she could definitely make good wine.

Bai Wutong sized up the calm Sheng Huaixuan and already guessed who this friend was.

Bai Wutong smiled. “Okay. I’ll tell you when the fruit wine is ready.”

Sheng Huaixuan naturally understood that Bai Wutong had already guessed that it was him. He said calmly, “Sister-in-law, if you need anything else, don’t be afraid of trouble. Just let me know.”

If she wanted to sell the fruit wine at a high price and obtain everyone’s approval, not only did the wine need to have a good taste, but it also needed to have a high-end packaging so that the rich and powerful would be willing to pay.

When Bai Wutong decided to make fruit wine, she had already thought of how to design an exquisite fruit wine packaging.

The most beautiful thing about fruit wine was its bright color that was extremely tempting. It was best to put it in a glass bottle. If there was no glass bottle, storing it in porcelain bottle must also be extremely beautiful.

In the “Book of Hundred Industries” that Yang Quanzi had given her, there was a record of how to melt glass. However, the cost of melting glass was too high. Usually, when a master melted an exquisite glass product, it would be sent into the palace as a tribute.

If Bai Wutong wanted to use glass to store wine, she had to go through the high-end luxury route and sell the most expensive fruit wine.

However, this kind of market was unstable. Bai Wutong thought about it and decided to go ahead with all three routes.

A portion of wine stored in exquisite glass would be sold to the royal family and other nobles.

Then, she would customize a batch of exquisite ceramic bottles and sell them to the high class families.

The remaining large batches of fruit wine were stored in ordinary ceramic bottles and sold to civilians and middle class families.

In any case, with Sheng Huaixuan around, they only needed to be in charge of producing the wine. Bai Wutong felt that the three routes would definitely allow Qingfeng and the others to have a stable income.

If the 2,500 kilograms of wine sold well, she could make more wine next time.

Bai Wutong said to Sheng Huaixuan, “I want to customize some wine bottles to store wine. Do you have any connections?”

Sheng Huaixuan smiled. “My friend will definitely have a way. I wonder what kind of wine bottle Sister-in-law wants to customize. Do you need my friend to call him over and communicate with him face to face?”

Good Lord, he was going to provide customization just like this.

This “friend” was really generous.

Bai Wutong glanced at Sheng Huaixuan and chuckled. “There’s no need to call him over. I’ll draw the blueprint. Please pass it to the craftsman to make a sample and send it over.”

Sheng Huaixuan agreed immediately. “Okay.”

The weather was good in spring. In a day or two, all the fruits were dried.

Bai Wutong called Qingfeng and the others over and divided them into a few teams and chose the team leaders. She specially taught the team leaders how to make fruit wine in the courtyard and asked them to bring their teams to make fruit wine according to the ratio.

The fruit wine used very simple ingredients. White wine, fruits, and rock sugar were combined and fermented according to a certain ratio.

However, this was only the most basic fruit wine. If she wanted to make a mellow and sweet fruit wine, she still needed to constantly adjust the ratio.

When the villagers saw that Bai Wutong had made the wine so simply and directly, they couldn’t help but say, “So it’s so simple to make fruit wine!”

It was so simple that they could make it easily.

They also wanted to make a jar of fruit wine, but when they thought about how much rock sugar was needed to make a jar of fruit wine, they completely dispelled the idea.

This cost was too expensive.

As for the people from the 30 families of Qinghe, there was no need to do so.

In any case, Bai Wutong had made so much wine and the fruit wine was successfully brewed. So long as they spent some money to buy some, Bai Wutong would definitely agree.

The fruit wine fermented extremely quickly. In a month, the first stage of wine could be unveiled.

On the day of the unveiling, Cui Lingyi ran to Bai Wutong’s house early and stared at the wine jar.

Bai Wutong was amused. “You can’t drink it yet.”

Cui was shocked. “Why not? Isn’t fruit wine supposed to be drunk after it’s fermented successfully?”

She liked to drink, so she was familiar with the process of brewing wine.

Bai Wutong smiled. “My fruit wine is naturally not comparable to other fruit wines.”

Since Bai Wutong was so confident, Cui Lingyi was even more curious. She could not wait to urge Bai Wutong to open it and see how the fruit wine was now.

Bai Wutong lifted the lid of the wine, and the fragrance of the wine swept everyone.

Bai Wutong took a bowl of the first stage of wine with a wine trough. The bright color was too beautiful.

Before they drank, everyone was already attracted by its color.

Cui Lingyi said even more exaggeratedly, “You can use it to make rouge. The color is too beautiful.”

Bai Wutong felt that it was not crystal clear enough. However, since the first stage of wine could have such a beautiful color without being filtered, it meant that the fermentation of the fruit wine was very successful.

There were a total of eight wine jars in Bai Wutong’s house. They were cherry wine, thornberry wine, and mulberry wine.

The cherry wine was the palest, a watery red.

The thornberry wine had the best color and a little like the popular tomato color of the lipstick that modern girls each had.

...

The color of the mulberry wine was the most intense. It was a deep wine red and bright. At a glance, it looked like the blood of a beauty.

Bai Wutong said, “Try it.”

Cui Lingyi picked the bowl up and savored bit by bit. “It’s delicious,” she said with a smile. “The fruit is rich and sweet.”

“I like cherry wine best, followed by thornberries, and finally, mulberries.”

Her evaluation was very standard because the freshly fermented fruit wine was also standard and ordinary.

If there was less sugar, it would be no different from the fruit wine on the market.

Cui Lingyi’s comment was comforting.

Bai Wutong received her evaluation and went into the kitchen to close the door.

After a while, the three glasses of fruit wine that she had filtered repeatedly and specially concocted appeared.

These three glasses of specially made fruit wine were made with mint and wild little green oranges found on the mountain. Fine granulated sugar was added to the freshly squeezed fruit juice and poured into the specially custom-made glazed goblet by Bai Wutong. It was carefully decorated at the mouth of the glass and perfectly restored the shape of a modern cocktail.

As soon as Bai Wutong served it, Cui Lingyi was stunned.
