Chapter 234 Inspection Brewery
"Mom, I'm going to take the provincial examination this fall, and I don't want to be distracted by other things." Wei Yichen said hastily.
"Okay, okay, I won't mention your matter for the time being." Yun Shi promised, "But don't worry about your sister's affairs. Although my mother has some conflicts with my eldest sister on weekdays, she is always my own flesh and blood. , I will definitely try my best to choose a good son-in-law for her when it comes to marriage."
Immediately after, Yun said: "Before, I thought that with Ruo'er's temperament, high-ranking and wealthy families might not be able to climb up, so I had to find a well-behaved scholar or a farming and studying family. Now it seems that she has her own good luck. So my mother is very happy."
Wei Yichen couldn't say anything more, so he stopped the topic here.
Mother and son gossiped for a while, seeing that Wei Yichen was tired, Yun asked Wei Yichen to go back and rest.

Back to Tingsongyuan, Wei Ruo immediately went into the study to write a letter.
First, she must instruct the people in the village to be alert to the bakanae disease, and to notify her immediately if there is a problem with the seedlings.
Secondly, write a letter to the nanny to urge her to find a husband-in-law mentioned earlier.
The attitude of Mrs. Tongzhi today reminded her that she must speed up her pace.
If she is really like what Yun Shi thinks, it's fine if there are no big families who are interested in her, and it can be delayed for another two years, but if someone like the Xu family takes a fancy to her, I'm afraid that Yun Shi will touch this Thinking, when the time comes to settle the marriage for her, it will put her in a relatively passive situation.
"Miss, are the bakanae disease you saw today the kind we saw in Huzhou Mansion two years ago?" Xiumei asked.
Wei Ruo nodded: "The symptoms are the same."
"That's terrible. The weather has been bad for the past two years, and the wind and rain have been unfavorable. It is difficult to grow high yields. After such a toss, the grain production will be lost." Xiumei worried. .
"In the past few days, I have taken the time to go around more often. I can persuade those who can be persuaded. I can't help those who can't be persuaded. I will do my best." Wei Ruo said.
Although he had run into a wall with those farmers today, Wei Ruo still wanted to try his best.
After all, this is a matter of saving lives. If the grain production is not harvested, many people will die.
Xiumei nodded. When the young lady was persuading people in Huzhou, she was scolded by many people at the beginning. At that time, the young lady was only ten years old. No one believed her words, and the words she scolded were very ugly.
But fortunately, in the end, after listening to their lady’s words with reason, they carefully inspected the seedlings, confirmed that there were some problems, and chose to believe their lady’s words.
Among them is the village head of Mojiazha. Under the strong suggestion of the village head, the young lady's late rice seeds were replanted at Mojiazha that year. The tragedy of the harvest.

In the next few days, Wei Ruode went to the countryside near Fucheng as Xu Heyou when he was free, and when he found something wrong, he communicated with the local farmers.
The situation is similar to what Wei Ruo encountered in Huzhou Prefecture back then, or even worse. It is inevitable to be scolded, and it is easy to be kicked out of the village with a shoulder pole.
Wei Ruo didn't care, he said what he had to say, he did what he had to do, and he did his best to obey the destiny.
Today Wei Ruo came to Shitou Village. This is where Wei Ruo opened the winery. The winery is still under construction. Wei Ruo just went to see the progress on the spot.
Come to the predetermined place, which is backed by a mountain, and there is a stream flowing in front of it.
The environment is very pleasant. There are several more houses on the flat ground that was originally empty.
Because it is used for brewing wine, there is still a big difference between the house and the ordinary house.
The biggest difference from ordinary houses is the boiler room, which is used for distilling liquor. Ordinary distilleries don’t need to build this, and the people in charge of the construction don’t know what it’s for.
"Hi, my boss!"
"Boss! You are here!"
"..."
After seeing Wei Ruo, everyone took the initiative to say hello to Wei Ruo, showing great enthusiasm.
At present, all the workers working here are long-term workers from Wei Ruo Zhuangzi. They are very motivated now, because Wei Ruo treats them very well. Not only do they pay more than others, but they also adopt a reward system. , there are additional rewards.
Those who were sent to farm, the higher the output of the rice fields they managed that year, the more rewards they would receive. This treatment is not only that of long-term workers, it is almost catching up with that of tenants.
And they are more secure than tenants. If the tenants have no production in their fields, they will have nothing, but they at least have wages from their employers.
The same goes for those who are sent to work in the workshop. If the workshop does well, they will also be rewarded.
Such a good treatment is not to mention the current bad age, even in previous years, there is nowhere to look for it.
Wei Ruo smiled and nodded: "You have worked hard."
"No hard work, no hard work, please be careful, boss, there are still a lot of sundries here, and there are rafters on the ground, so be careful not to trip over." Chang Gong carefully reminded Wei Ruo.
"Okay." Wei Ruo nodded.
After a round trip, Wei Ruo was very satisfied with the construction of the workshop, which did not deviate from her idea, and the construction progress and construction quality also met her expectations.
According to this situation, the winery will be officially put into work next month.
It seems that she is going to start selecting workers for training, and at the same time preparing the crops for brewing.
After the inspection, Wei Ruo came to the village chief's house in Shitou Village. Standing outside the fence of the village chief's house, Wei Ruo was wondering if the village chief was at home.
"Master Xu!"
The village chief Shi Dayou who came out of the house saw Wei Ruo and warmly came out to greet him.
Shi Dayou was in his thirties, with a limp in one foot, and walked with a limp.
He doesn't look like a very authoritative person, and he is not too old, he doesn't look like the head of a village.
Shi Dayou opened the fence door and invited Wei Ruojin to the house: "Mr. Xu, come in quickly."
Wei Ruo entered the door and followed Shi Dayou into the house.
The house is simple but clean.
"Xu Gongzi came to inspect the construction progress of the brewery today?" Shi Dayou asked.
"Yes." Wei Ruo nodded, and then said to Shi Dayou, "Besides that, there is one more thing I want to talk to the village chief about."
"Mr. Xu, if you need help from our villagers, just ask, we will definitely help you!" Shi Dayou hurriedly said.
"It's not that I need your help, but when I entered the village, I saw the seedlings in the rice fields around the village. I felt that the growth was a bit strange. According to my experience, there might be some problems with these seedlings." Wei Ruo said.
After hearing Wei Ruo's words, Shi Dayou was silent for a long time.
"Village head?" Wei Ruo called Shi Dayou.
