Reborn 73 years later, he takes his mother-in-law hunting in the mountains.

Chapter 664 Delivering Wine to the Supply and Marketing Cooperative

Lu Yao quickly straightened his clothes and came out to open the door.

Last night, Lu Yao was still on the offensive, launching his first attack on Xiao Meizi's lair.

As a result, Ding Mei adapted to the war and perfectly turned defense into offense.

At this point, Lu Yao only wanted to protect himself.

It's like Trump's unreliable attack on Persia, thinking his missiles were so powerful that he would win if they hit the bullseye and decapitated the enemy.

Little did they know that the enemy had a strong follow-up attack, and their counterattack destroyed the base.

Men's physical abilities are definitely superior to women's, but in some aspects, they have to admit defeat.

No one needs to argue about this; whoever does is the one who feels guilty.

Lu Yao opened the door, and there stood Jing Youxiang:

"Groom, aren't you planning to leave the house all day? Shumei asked me to ask you about the sales of your liquor."

As they spoke, they walked into the house.

When they got inside, they found Ding Mei still in bed.

I was surprised:

"You...you're still not out of bed?"

Ding Mei was surprised to see Jing Youxiang.

I thought it was Xiaoqian.

Get up and get dressed quickly.

With a flick of the blanket, Jing Youxiang noticed that she wasn't wearing anything underneath and couldn't help but laugh:

"My goodness! You... alright, I'm leaving now. You guys go back to sleep. The bride is the most important person, I wouldn't dare disturb her!"

Ding Mei tried calling her but couldn't get her back, so she quickly left.

Lu Yao followed him out:

"Why are you in such a hurry? Is there anything else?"

"No, no, you should go back to sleep. I shouldn't have come; I might get a sty!"

He glanced at Lu Yao as he spoke.

His eyes suddenly widened again:

"Your face...your hands...come here, let me see...oh my god, have you been abused?"

Lu Yao's face, hands, and arms were covered in teeth marks.

What Jing Youxiang saw was only a partial picture; there was more on her buttocks.

"Don't worry about me. Tell Shumei I'm coming right away."

Jing Youxiang ran out of the courtyard.

Knowing that Lu Yao and Ding Mei were newly married, she naturally wanted to be affectionate with them.

So I wanted to come and check this morning, but I didn't, afraid of missing out on something good.

It was already past noon, and Ding Mei still hadn't put on her clothes.

Thinking about Lu Yao's fierce energy, humph, Ding Mei really can handle it!

Lu Yao went back into the house and said to Ding Mei:

"I'm going to the distillery. I'm not hunting these days, so I might as well check on the sales of the liquor."

"Didn't you say you'd get three days off for your wedding? Why are you running off to the winery again? I'm not letting you go; you have to stay with me!"

Ding Mei swayed her slender waist.

Lu Yao almost lost control and took off his clothes again.

But I'm afraid my kidneys won't be able to handle it.

He hugged Ding Mei, kissed her, and then ran out.

We arrived at the winery.

Everyone else is working normally.

The distillery was bustling with activity, the stills were bubbling away, and the aroma of liquor filled the entire courtyard.

Grandpa Zuo was leaning over the edge of the steamer, squinting at the thermometer. Seeing Lu Yao enter, he waved him in.

"You country bumpkin, you've come at the right time, this batch of wine will be ready soon."

Lu Yao leaned over to take a look, and the mercury column pointed to eighty-five, which was the perfect time to pour the wine.

He glanced into the stove; Xilian was adding firewood, the flames licking the bottom of the pot, making her face glow.

"Aunt Xilian, you've worked hard," Lu Yao said.

Xilian raised her head and smiled:

"What's so hard about it? This job is much easier than farming."

Upon hearing this, Aunt Guangyi, without even looking up, said:

"Effortless? You couldn't even lift your arms when you got home yesterday. Did you pull yourself up to the bed by the cat's tail? By the way, yesterday wasn't work at the winery, you were helping that country bumpkin with his wedding, that's why you're so tired?"

Xilian spat at her:

"You talk too much!"

Lu Yao went over and massaged happy Lian's shoulders:

"Auntie, thank you so much. I won't treat you badly."

Xilian looked at Lu Yao, then at the people around her. There were some things she couldn't say in front of so many people.

Yuan Shumei stood by the condenser, staring at the water flow, without looking in Lu Yao's direction.

Lu Yao walked over. Exclusive! A special interview with Kan Ge and behind-the-scenes details of the creation of "Reborn in 73 Years, Taking My Mother-in-Law Hunting in the Mountains," only available to him. He stood next to her, wanting to speak, but she spoke first:

"The water flow is steady, and the temperature is just right."

Grandpa Zuo stared at the spout, waiting for the thin stream to flow out. He caught a little in a bowl, took a sip, and smacked his lips.

"Mmm, this pot smells even better than the one we just cooked."

"Really?" Lu Yao also took a bite to try.

The liquor was spicy at first, but had a rich aftertaste with a mellow, grainy aroma. He nodded.

"It's better than cooking it in a pot."

Grandpa Zuo put down the bowl and looked at Lu Yao:

"Hey kid, the wine's been brewed, but have you figured out how to sell it? We can't drink this much just by ourselves."

Lu Yao thought for a moment: "I plan to go to the supply and marketing cooperative and talk to Director Liu. Our wine is of good quality and the price is right, so he can't refuse to buy it."

Aunt Guangyi looked up and said, "You know Director Liu, he's ruthless at driving down prices."

Lu Yao smiled and said, "I don't think so. I'll go and try. I'm going into town this afternoon; I need to see Director Mei about something."

Grandpa Zuo nodded: "Alright, you go and give it a try first. This batch of wine should yield about seven or eight hundred catties."

Yuan Shumei suddenly spoke:

"I know some grocery stores near the distillery in the county town. Should I ask them for you too?"

Lu Yao glanced at her, but she didn't look at him, continuing to stare at the flowing water.

Lu Yao felt that her mother had become much colder since her wedding yesterday.

Lu Yao said, "Okay, you can ask around for me."

"Hey country bumpkin, when are you going to the county town?"

"Put a few jars of wine in, we'll be leaving in a bit. I've already driven the car over."

Aunt Guangyi laughed and said, "Going straight to the county town right after the wedding, do you think the bride would be happy?"

Lu Yao smiled and said, "Those are minor matters; important things come first."

Grandpa Zuo waved his hand: "Alright, alright, stop talking and get to work. This pot of wine is almost finished; get ready to change the jars."

Everyone got busy again.

Several jars of wine were moved to Lu Yao's car.

Lu Yao drove into the county town and headed straight for the supply and marketing cooperative.

The supply and marketing cooperative is still the same red brick building, with a few bicycles parked in front and people going in and out.

Lu Yao parked the car outside the courtyard wall, got out, and walked inside.

A young man was standing behind the counter, weighing salt for an old lady.

Lu Yao asked, "Is Director Liu here?"

The young man looked up at him, then pointed into the inner room:

"He's inside."

Lu Yao knocked on the door and went inside.

Director Liu Laoxi was hunched over the table doing accounts, one hand still wrapped in gauze, the other hand fiddling with the abacus beads.

When he looked up and saw Lu Yao, his face turned pale, and his hand trembled so much that he almost dropped the abacus.

"You... what brings you here?"

Lu Yao smiled, walked over and sat down opposite him:

"Director Liu, Brother Xi, don't be nervous, I'm here to discuss business."

Liu Laoxi swallowed hard, his eyes fixed on Lu Yao's hand, afraid that he would pull something out of his pocket again.

His injury hasn't fully healed yet after that last time he was stir-fried with a shovel.

"What...what kind of business?"

Lu Yao carried in a jar of wine he had brought and placed it on the table:

"Try some liquor that we brewed ourselves in Jiapigou."

Old Liu looked at the wine jar, then at Lu Yao, and didn't dare to touch it.

Lu Yao opened the jar himself, poured a teacup, and pushed it in front of him.

The aroma of the wine immediately filled the room.

Old Liu sniffed and couldn't resist picking it up and taking a sip.

He smacked his lips, then took another sip. After finishing, he put down the bowl and looked at Lu Yao:

"This liquor...did you brew it yourselves?"

"Yes, the first batch of liquor, made from pure grains."

Old Liu was silent for a moment, then asked:

"What price are you looking to sell it for?"

"How about seven cents a pound?"

Old Liu immediately shook his head:

"Are you kidding me? We only sell 60-proof liquor in bulk for 90 cents a day, you're selling it for 70 cents, how are we making any profit? Besides, you need a permit from the county to deliver liquor!"

After saying that, fearing that Lu Yao would turn hostile again, he quickly took a step back.

Seeing his nervousness, Lu Yao couldn't help but laugh.
