Chapter 117
"Guess what I got for you?"
Hei Xun rushed in with a look of excitement, his hands behind his back mysterious and mysterious.
Yang Yi put down his pen, raised his head to extract it from a pile of data, and rubbed his eyes: "I can't guess, what is it?"
"Well, you've been waiting a long time." Black Hunt took out a tray from behind like a joke.
There were purple grapes on the tray, and a glittering one was almost the size of a ping pong ball, translucent like black pearl, and coveted.
"Here, this is grapes?" Yang Yi could hardly confirm, this is too big!
Hei Hunt picked a peeled skin and put it in Yang Yi's mouth. Yang Yi took a bite. The sweet juice filled the mouth instantly, which was sweet and delicious.
"It tastes great too!"
Yang Yi's eyes were all bright. This was one of his favorite fruits. He used to go to Xinjiang to eat grapes and was amazed by the grapes.
Unexpectedly, the grapes here were not lost to Xinjiang's best grapes at all, and they were much bigger and looked more attractive.
"Isn't it saying that there is no way to get results this year? How can there be such a long list?"
Yang Yi brought grape seeds instead of grape seedlings, so it would grow more slowly. It is normal for three years to have no results.
Yang Yi had asked before, Qing said that it was estimated that he would not pay much attention until next year.
Of the fruit seeds brought by Yang Yi, only strawberries and passion fruits have begun to bear fruit and are edible. Others, such as mango and apple, have not yet entered the period when they can be officially picked.
Rao is so, Yang Yi is already very satisfied.
I especially care about grapes, except that Yang Yi likes to eat it, that is, it can make more profits by making wine.
At present, the wines of the Spark Tribe are luxury goods, whether they are sold externally or internally, after all, they are brewed with grain.
In a world where food is still a big problem, the cost of brewing with grain is very high.
Although other fruits are now used to make wine, the contrast wine is always worse, and some even require white wine to soak.
When grapes begin to mature, it is equivalent to having wine. On the earth, wine is all the rage in the world. As long as people who like to drink wine have a good opinion of it.
Therefore, among the various fruits, Yang Yiming people planted the most grapes.
"This is a surprise for you. In fact, this time it has already been fruitful, but the output is not large enough. Qing said that he should enter a stable state next year and have a true fruit-filled vineyard."
The black hunter put Yang Yi bite the other half of grapes in his mouth, and he also liked such fruits very much.
The wines of the western continent are very famous. Even if the wines of the Xinghuo tribe squeeze their business because of their cheap taste, they are still very marketable.
Different wines have different flavors, and different people have their own preferences for different wines.
And the wine has very beautiful colors, especially in a crystal glass.
"You guys are so sleepy! I haven't heard any news at all." Yang Yi was so surprised that he picked a big grape and stuffed it in his mouth.
The black hunter must have washed it, and there was no pesticide to swallow the grape skin directly.
Not to mention, this skin tastes great! Without that astringency, it was a little hard.
It's just too big, a bad bite, and a bite of juice is easy.
Hei Hunt picked another grape and peeled it, and peeled it well and quickly, and handed it to Yang Yi's mouth.
"The yield is too little, and I don't know how it tastes. I don't want to let you down."
Yang Yi bit it into his mouth without any hesitation, and after a while he could continue to speak, "Where am I so vulnerable? Isn't it sooner or later?"
"Speaking of which, how about the output this time? It won't be this long, will it?"
"According to Qing's prediction, it is estimated that it can be more than 1,000 kilograms per acre, and better, it can reach more than 2,000 kilograms."
Yang Yi was pleasantly surprised: "So much! We can make wine!"
Although the yield of this acre is not comparable to that of a vineyard with a large output, compared to the performance of such a large grape and other fruits, this yield is indeed relatively weak.
But it is still very impressive, especially they grow much!
"Everyone thinks that way. Originally, I was thinking of picking up some food for everyone to taste. Except for the children, everyone was unwilling and hoped that they would make wine."
Yang Yi also laughed: "Winemaking is very important, but you can't lose everyone. Anyway, there will be next year, everyone first tastes what grapes are, and there is a surplus of winemaking.
Although he was also anxious to make wine, he was not anxious for a while.
"Moreover, you don't have to say in advance that the wine barrels and cellars have not been prepared and dug up."
The wood used for winemaking is also particular about the wood used, and the storage temperature is also required, otherwise the taste may not be so good.
Now carpenters can use wooden boards to make watertight buckets, making wine barrels is no problem, just prepare the wood and so on.
Hei Xie laughed: "You can rest assured that when the grapes start to bear fruit, some people will actively do these things. There are more people in the tribe than you drink alcohol."
"So positive?" Yang Yi laughed. "Since this, do not trade the first batch of wine this year, all used for internal digestion. We also can't put out any good things for exchange. You have to taste good things. "
Heihei has no objection, they can exchange a lot of things, and this wine is not bad.
Yang Yi knew that the grapes were ripe and could not bear it anymore.
Walking there, Yang Yi could hardly move.
He likes this fruitful feeling. Every time the fruit is ripe, he likes to stand in your field and feel the good harvest.
This kind of satisfaction is indescribable, and in short it is extremely enjoyable and satisfying.
"I really want to live here."
Yang Yi stood down on the grape rack and looked up to bite into a big grape. It felt so cool!
"Go back and make a bed with bamboo here." Hei Xun has begun to think about where to build it.
Yang Yi shook his head with a smile: "I'm just talking. It's weird to lie down on the ground like this. It's almost the same in his own yard."
At this time, Yang Yi felt the same as living in a high-rise building, and lacked a yard for planting various things.
The black hunter frowned slightly and fell into thinking. Yang Yi interrupted with a tacit understanding: "Don't think about it, I live in it now. It ’s nice to say that the skin of the grapes can also be left for dyeing cloth. It ’s beautiful and can be used further. "
At present, the tribe's printing and dyeing technology is still relatively backward, mainly through ore such as cinnabar and some plants such as isatis root, the main colors are red and blue.
Now there is a special person in charge of this technology, and that person is also one of the students of Frozen and very sensitive to color.
He started with ancient recipes, learned printing and dyeing techniques, and combined with the modern fixation techniques learned in books, the combination of the two made the colors more colorful and durable.
The pattern mainly uses tie-dye technology, and the style is changeable and beautiful.
Brilliantly colored silk and patterned silk are more expensive than white.
Driven by economic interests, plus everyone's pursuit of beauty, even though this technology started late, it can develop rapidly.
At present, most of the grapes have not yet entered the maturity stage. All the grapes that Yang Yi has eaten are the first to lose. The real bumper harvest will have to wait at least half a month.
When Feng received it, the grapes were picked basket by basket. Except for the big ones, the rest were used to make wine.
The day when the brewing officially started was very lively. There were many people around the temple square, and there were many very large wooden barrels. Inside was a group of beautiful girls singing and dancing.
They have grapes under their feet to break the grapes into wine.
Yang Yi looked at the jubilant people with some words. Is he drinking this wine or not?
"You don't even need to learn this method? You can actually smash it with a wooden stick."
In the past, the first step in brewing grapes was this way-stepping on the feet, although it was very lively and interesting, the girls who entered were also carefully selected. They also washed their feet before entering, but Yang Yi still Some couldn't bear to look straight.
"Everyone likes this fun, let them play. If you can't accept it, I'll get some grapes in a while, and we will make our own drinks."
Yang Yi thought for a while: "Okay, I happen to try winemaking. My dad used to make mountain grapes myself, and I gave him a hand. Later, the wine was quite good."
If he didn't see it, he drank it, but if he could see it clearly, his heart would inevitably be awkward.
"We will make better this time, and you can save it and take it back." Black Hunt said naturally.
Yang Yi wondered: "You ..."
Since Yang Yi confessed to the black hunter, he never concealed and told him all the conditions he had to meet to go back.
Although the space has almost been emptied, the space still accompanies him and does not disappear.
Space can not only take things out, but also store them as a storage space.
When you want to leave in the future, you need to store items of the same value before you can leave.
As for how to calculate, Yang Yi was not very clear, which was one of the reasons why he felt unreliable at first.
"I also want to see what the place you live in looks like." Heihe smiled calmly. "Or you don't want me to follow?"
When he said this, Black Hunt narrowed his eyes slightly, full of threats.
"Of course not, but ..."
Heihe directly interrupted his words: "That's fine, don't think too much about other things. I'm going to get grapes and wine barrels now, and I must make enough and good enough!"
After leaving the situation, Yang Yi was not allowed to continue.
Yang Yi couldn't help but a slight twitch in his mouth, but it was inevitable that he felt a sense of panic.
No one knows whether the future will be as smooth as they think. He understands that black hunting is not an escape, but he does not want to focus on things that are uncertain.
Grasping the eyes is the behavior of the black hunter. As for the future, it will try its best to fight frankly regardless of the result, but it will not fearlessly when it does not arrive.
The wine making of the Xinghuo tribe soon passed to the Green Mango tribe, and Jinhuan killed the door without mercy.
"I don't care, I will never go empty-handed today anyway!"
Jinhuan is still beautiful and domineering, she obviously looks like a goddess, but her behavior is very bandit.
Yang Yi smiled. She had long expected that she would come back and was accustomed to her style.
Although such people are sometimes very overbearing, they are very good neighbors. They never have to worry that they will give them trouble behind them.
"We don't have many ourselves. This year we will not sell to outsiders. But you are different. You will enjoy it no matter what. Give me the bucket you gave me."
Yang Yi is very generous, but this bucket is not small, very valuable.
Jinhuan accepted it politely: "It is worthy of the **** to be the atmosphere, unlike some people ..."
"Some people" slanted the golden ring and snorted angrily.
Jinhuan blinked at Yang Yi: "God, if you want to change chiefs one day, I am the best candidate."
"Then I can only say that I'm very sorry, there won't be one day," Yang Yidu said.
The black hunter on the side suddenly smiled, if he had a tail behind his butt, he would definitely be up in the sky.
Jin Huan looked regretful: "It's a sad fact."
"You can leave when you get something." The black hunting voice had no emotion, as if rushing people.
Jinhuan has long been used to his cold and hot appearance, she didn't care, and took a lot of essential oil and other items before leaving.
Now the essential oil of the Spark Tribe is also a very popular cargo. Every time the Western Continental Caravan arrives at the Spark Tribe, it must be searched before leaving.
No matter how much the Starfire Tribe produces, they can take all these essential oils away, showing its enthusiasm.
These essential oils are really good for Westerners. They not only have various effects, but also can make themselves smell. They are very fond of them.
The important flower source of the Xinghuo tribe is from the green python tribe in addition to its own planting.
The quality of the flowers they plant is very good, even better than the Spark tribe, the aroma is stronger.
Obviously the same variety, but there are slight differences.
Probably because of the geographical environment, and the green python tribe loves flowers very much, and they take care of it very carefully.
Although they are neighbors, the environment is significantly different.
The green python tribe don't want anything else, as long as the essential oil and pure dew are exchanged.
In fact, the Spark tribe can increase the cultivation of flowers and reduce costs, but based on the basis of mutual benefit and some people are willing to provide so many flowers, they do not have to spend too much labor to serve those flowers.
There are many people in the tribe, but the distribution will still not be loose.
Because supply is in short supply, many people are needed in every industry. They are not deliberately hungry for sale, they are really too busy.
The news that the Spark tribe could start making wine soon spread.
At the big trade fair, many tribes inquired about the specific situation with the Spark tribe.
"Just make a little of it, what's wrong! How good friends we are, don't be so stingy!"
"That is, I don't believe that your tribe is not enough. I have all seen your grape hills, so much! It's enough to leak a little from the nail seam!"
"You're not being kind, you can't exchange them if you can make them!"
"..."
A group of 'drinkers' gathered around the black hunter, begging for wine.
Heihun was unmoved, and said very calmly: "It really isn't this year, and we will take it out for trading next year."
"You leave me a little bit! I can't keep up every time!"
The tribal leaders who are far away are very depressed, and the items of the Spark Tribe never worry about selling, and they often cannot get late.
"Black Hunt, our tribe has always been good with the Starfire tribe, can't we leave a little for us?"
Others echoed.
"We can't help it. People can't buy it or sell it. It's a lot of trouble to go back. However, starting this year, we have adopted a predetermined policy to give everyone a guarantee."
"What is the reservation policy?" The people present were unknown.
Black Hunt explained: "What do you want to exchange with us at the next trade fair, you can book in advance, and we will make an appointment for the time and the number of transactions."
"This method is good! It should have been so!"
The people present expressed their strong support for this.
Hei Hou waited for everyone to calm down and said again: "For bookings, you need to pay a part of the deposit in advance, otherwise, if you breach the contract, we will produce too much stuff, which will result in failure to exchange it, which will harm our interests.
When everyone heard this, they were silent.
Although they are not so savvy, they are well aware of the risks involved.
The people present were used to the exchange on the spot and have never heard of it.
"If you don't trust us, you don't have to do it, and you don't force it."
Black Hunt was not surprised by this result, there was no loss to the Spark tribe anyway.
Taking such measures is just for the convenience of everyone, and it is an experiment for the future development of the tribe.
The scene was silent for a while, and the tribe that had always been good with the black hunter finally gritted their teeth and said, "Okay! Our tribe is willing to try, what do you say first?"
Hei Hunt explained to everyone in detail, the approach is similar to that on the earth.
Pay a part of the deposit in advance, and set the time to trade according to the amount of time on the contract. If both parties breach the contract, there will be a response to compensation.
If the Spark Tribe cannot deliver, then it is also necessary to pay a deposit of the same price, or on the other hand, you can ask for the same goods at a 10% discount next time.
If the other party is unable to trade in accordance with the agreement, these deposits will be owned by the Spark tribe, will not be returned, and such transactions will not continue with the tribe for five years.
The contract looks fairly fair, but everything is built on trust.
Otherwise, it is likely that everything will be left behind, which is also one of the ways to test the current credibility of the Spark Tribe.
"Is there any tribe willing to book?" Yang Yi was surprised.
Although their credit is not bad, in this world, there is a shortage of supplies. In advance, a bunch of supplies will be given to others who can't get things back. Although they are often seen on the earth, they are extremely rare here.
To put it bluntly, it is hard to say if a tribe still exists next year.
"The number is not large, but it exceeds our expectations."
"This is also a good sign that we are trustworthy." Yang Yi thought of a key thing. "How does the western continent react to the wine we can make?"
The appearance of the Spark Tribe is undoubtedly an important part of cutting off the western continent.
Their wines are cheaper and taste better, unless they ca n’t help it, and stupid people know how to choose.
"Of course they don't have opinions." Hei Xie smiled cheerfully.
Yang Yicai did not believe this. These Westerners were professional businessmen who were cut off from their interests.
It's just that they can't deal with it, so they can only endure.
"We have the goods they want here, especially I put our tea up. As long as they have a long mind, they will not say much."
As the grapes are harvested, the tea leaves are ready to be picked.
Just like grapes, this year is not the best time for picking, and a good harvest will be obtained next year.
This time I just tried to taste, Yang Yi didn't pay too much attention to the tea, and it tasted the beauty of it.
What they picked was not spring tea, but late autumn tea with a slightly worse taste.
"You still have to be careful. They will lose such a great profit and will never give up."
Black Hunt nodded, knowing it very well.
Although he is confident, he will not take it lightly. People who know how to be weak can jump up and bite people if they are in a hurry.
"Murray sent us a letter."
Yang Yi froze for a while, then quickly responded: "Murray? I thought the kid had disappeared."
There has been no news since Murray left last time.
The east and west continents are so far apart, it is difficult to convey each other's news, and they are not particularly familiar and important people, so they gradually faded in Yang Yi's mind, and I didn't expect this kid to come out again now.
"He's pretty good now. He even joined a group of slaves in a short period of time to start resistance and won. He is no longer a slave."
The messenger didn't tell too specific circumstances. What is certain is that Murray really did things according to his own will and achieved certain results.
In a short period of time, this step can be done very well.
"This guy is really unrecognizable. Looking at the obedient little is even a little shy. I didn't expect it to be a big deal." Yang Yi was amazed.
It sounds easy, but Yang Yi knows how difficult it is.
He was a slave, which was challenging the whole system.
And how long did it take for such a big child to make such a big noise!
"Can the rulers of the western continent tolerate such things?"
Yang Yi was unbelievable. He had never expected one person to overthrow the entire slavery system.
Heihe laughed: "He is still under the banner of being a noble, but he has been framed as a slave by inferior people. Their fight is to prevent more slave owners from suffering such betrayal."
The western continents are also intricate with each other. One city wants to annex another, and it is both an enemy and a friend.
"Uh ..." Yang Yi said for a moment, before he said:
"Anyway, he's very good."
It is not unusual for so many people who are beyond the current social environment to act from their own perspective.
"There must always be power before there can be words to say anything else." Black Hunt rational analysis.
"What did he ask us to do?"
Black Hunt's eyes were dim: "Money, he hopes we can support him."
