Spring comes to the desperate place

Chapter 293 Raisins

As he expected, the two arrived at Bai Ta City on the afternoon of the fifth day. They first went into the city and rented a carriage. It was empty when they left the city, but halfway through the journey, the carriage was filled with various specialties brought from the capital. Most of them were hot sauces and jams produced by the Song family themselves, as well as the indispensable vermicelli. Song Chunlin also added some wild mushrooms produced in the space, all of which were dried, as well as some fruits, all of which were juicy. After all, they were given to the Fang family, so he was not afraid of being questioned.

The Fang brothers were cooking when a carriage came from a distance. The family dog rushed out excitedly and barked at the carriage. When Fang Chen saw who was sitting in the carriage, he barked in surprise.

"Master! The master is back!" He ran into the house excitedly and shared the news with his family. The girls and boys in the nearby courtyard also heard his shouting and ran out to see. They found that it was actually Song Chunlin. All of a sudden the two courtyards became lively and everyone ran out to welcome Song Chunlin.

"It's my benefactor, my benefactor is back!"

Huang Cuizhu stood at the front and watched Song Chunlin pick up a child of seven or eight years old from the carriage. The child was white and chubby, and as cute as a doll in a New Year picture. At this moment, he was standing on the ground, looking at them with his head tilted.

Fang Siyi took her daughter forward and bowed to Song Chunlin: "Young Master, you are here."

Song Chunlin smiled and helped Fang Siyi up. Instead of accepting his greeting, he looked at the little girl at his feet with a smile. Compared with the previous year, the little girl had grown up a little and still had baby fat on her face, but she obviously had not forgotten herself and looked at Song Chunlin with bright eyes.

She remembered this older brother. He once hugged her. He had a particularly pleasant floral scent, a scent Fang Lanxin had never smelled before. Now he smelled the same, which was actually laundry detergent with the scent of gardenia. Song Chunlin liked this one the most, and he washed all his clothes with laundry detergent with this scent.

Seeing that the little girl seemed to remember him, Song Chunlin wanted to tease her. He squatted down and asked her with a smile: "Do you remember me, Xiao Lanxin?"

Fang Lanxin nodded: "Remember, little daddy told my brothers that you are our family's great benefactor, big brother, you smell so good."

The adults around were amused by the child's innocent words. Huang Cuizhu squeezed to the front and asked Song Chunlin with concern whether he had eaten.

Song Chunlin nodded and signaled to everyone else to stop working and help him move the things down first. So everyone gathered in front of the carriage and moved all the things in the carriage down according to Song Chunlin's instructions.

In addition to the family specialties, there are two large baskets of iodized salt at the bottom of the carriage. The salt used in Baita City is lake salt, so the iodine content is naturally not as high as that of sea salt. In addition to these, Song Chunlin also brought a lot of kelp and seaweed. These are all dry goods, and they can be soaked in large quantities, so they can be used as occasional snacks or something.

The supplies they brought were quickly arranged by Song Chunlin. Huang Cuizhu and the others thought that these were all for the Fang family, but they didn't expect that Song Chunlin also included their share. Although the amount was not large, it was enough to make them burst into tears.

No one expected that Song Chunlin, who was thousands of miles away, would still think of bringing them things. This warmed the hearts of those who had suffered from cold eyes and contempt after the war.

"Young Master Song, these are too expensive."

Song Chunlin didn't care: "I've already brought it here, you won't ask me to take it back, right? Besides, Uncle Fang's portion is more than yours, and his family of four can't finish it all, so you can take it back, don't be polite to me."

Fang Siyi also came over and said with a smile: "Yes, Miss Huang, Young Master Song has spoken, so you should stop refusing, lest you disappoint Young Master Song's kindness."

After being persuaded by the two, Huang Cuizhu and the others finally took the things, but when they worked for Song Chunlin afterwards, they were obviously more diligent.

After putting things in place, Fang Siyi handed her daughter to Song Chunlin and went to clean up the room for Song Chunlin. However, the rooms in the backyard were cleaned regularly, so they were not dirty and could be lived in as long as the sheets and quilts were put down.

Perhaps because the two children looked to be of the same age, Fang Lanxin walked over to Dabao and greeted him in a friendly manner. The two little guys chatted with each other quickly.

At this time, brothers Fang Chen and Fang Yi had both returned, and they could not hide their excitement when they saw Song Chunlin.

"Master, how long do you plan to stay this time?"

Song Chunlin thought for a moment and said, "About a month. This time I'm here to build a winery. Tomorrow you guys go out with me to find Uncle Ding and ask him to help invite his uncle to come over to discuss how to build the winery."

Hearing that Song Chunlin was really going to build a winery, the two brothers were very surprised: "Master got the wine-making documents so quickly?"

"Well, I got it. It took almost two years to get it. How can it be considered fast?"

The two brothers were quite speechless. Ordinary people would have to wait for several years, but he got it in less than two years, and he still complained it was too slow.

Song Chunlin was unaware of the complaints in the two brothers' hearts, and instead asked about this year's harvest.

When it comes to this, Fang Chen and Fang Yi have a lot to say. In the past two years, they have been planting seeds left by Song Chunlin in the fields. Not only is the yield higher than the first year, but the quality is even better than the first time. The two brothers don’t understand why, and can only attribute it to the good seeds left by Song Chunlin.

The grapes in the vineyard have expanded a bit through cuttings and grafting over the past two years. The two brothers had little experience at the beginning and did not dare to try anything big. They had planned to expand the planting area next year if the harvest was good this year.

Song Chunlin had no objection to the brothers' steady and cautious approach. The yield from the land exceeded his expectations, 20% more than he had imagined. When he heard the brothers say that their sister loved to wander around the vineyard, Song Chunlin had the answer in his mind.

As expected, God's darling is extraordinary. Even if she doesn't actually work in the fields, the plants can still draw energy from her.

As they were talking, Fang Siyi walked in and took out a few bunches of raisins from the cellar. These were naturally dried raisins. Thanks to the dry climate here, the moisture in the grapes was dried out, so they were extra sweet. Song Chunlin ate one at a time and enjoyed it very much.

Dabao on the side also grabbed a handful in his hand. He felt a little disgusted in his heart, always feeling that they were not as good as the grapes he planted in the space.

"Hmm, not bad, not bad. Do you have any more raisins like this? Bring some back when I go back."

Fang Siyi smiled and said, "Yes, last year we had a bumper harvest of grapes, but we didn't know how much they should be sold for, so we didn't dare to sell them. We only gave some away. The Ministry of Agriculture also gave some away, but they knew that these were grown by you, Young Master Song, so they didn't dare to take them. We made the rest into raisins according to the instructions in the books you left behind. We still have dozens of baskets in the cellar."
